Description
Release Date Friday 23rd January 2026
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.
In early 2026, Megadeth will release their final studio album via Dave Mustaine’s Tradecraft
imprint in partnership with Frontiers Label Group’s new BLKIIBLK label. Serving as the
definitive closing chapter to one of the most influential catalogs in heavy music, this record
represents both a creative milestone and a once-in-a-generation commercial opportunity.
The campaign is anchored by two high-impact singles: lead track “Tipping Point” and follow-
up “I Don’t Care”, launching this fall alongside worldwide pre-orders.
To maximize impact, the rollout is supported by a global cinema listening event that brings
the album experience to theaters in key markets, offering fans an immersive preview and
generating retail-driving buzz. A coordinated global paid media campaign will span digital,
social, audio, and OOH placements, ensuring reach across mainstream audiences and
rock/metal superfans alike. In addition, Dave Mustaine and Megadeth will be featured in
major global print, television, and radio interviews, further elevating visibility around the
world.
Commercially, the album is positioned as the last chance to own a brand-new Megadeth
release, tied directly to the launch of a multi-year global farewell tour beginning in 2026.
Multiple retail and D2C configurations—including color vinyl variants, deluxe CDs, and
premium collector bundles—are designed to drive strong pre-order activity and high-value
SKU sales. Fans will also be engaged through Cyber Army activations, CRM campaigns, and
cross-category tie-ins such as Megadeth Beer.
This is not just another release, it is the culmination of a four-decade legacy, supported by a
global, multi-platform campaign engineered to deliver maximum awareness, conversion,
and long-tail catalog lift.
