Today, thrash metal legends Megadeth have premiered their new single "Night Stalkers: Chapter II," the second installment of a trilogy of videos being released alongside the band's new studio album The Sick, The Dying…And The Dead!, which arrives on September 2nd, 2022, via UMe.
Created by Dave Mustaine, produced by Rafael Pensado, and directed by Leo Liberti, "Night Stalkers: Chapter II" is the next episode in the multi-chapter saga about the origin of Vic Rattlehead as we continue to follow the tragic events leading to our operative's complete transformation as he systematically exacts his revenge.
Both the music video and single for "Night Stalkers" feature a special appearance by the iconic rap artist and Body Count frontman Ice-T. Check it out below!
The first chapter "We'll Be Back: Chapter I" premiered in June and within the first hour of release, the album's first track and video were met with overwhelming fan reaction resulting in the band trending on Twitter with the video already having garnered over two million views to date.
As I previously stated, on September 2nd, Megadeth will release their highly anticipated 16th studio album, The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead! via UMe. Featuring twelve new tracks, The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead! will be released on CD, vinyl, and cassette, as well as digitally through all online partners and can be pre-ordered/pre-saved, HERE.
There will also be a limited deluxe edition 2LP, 12-track album pressed on 180g black vinyl housed in a numbered gatefold jacket with a 12x24 lyrics/credits insert, a lenticular vinyl lithograph and a bonus 7-inch featuring "We'll Be Back" and the unreleased b-side "The Conjuring (Live)."
