Ex-MEGADETH Guitarist MARTY FRIEDMAN To Release New Solo Album Next Month

July 23, 2010

Former MEGADETH guitarist Marty Friedman will release his tenth solo album, "Bad D.N.A.", in Japan on August 25 via Avex. The CD was produced by Marty and engineered by Steve Hardy and Shinnosuke Miyazawa (LADY GAGA, GUNS N' ROSES) this April/May at The Village in Los Angeles, California.

According to a posting on Friedman's web site, "Bad D.N.A." is "a natural progression, picking up where 'Loudspeaker' and 'Tokyo Jukebox' left off and adding its own twists and turns."

The first Japanese pressing will include the first music video for the title track, "Bad D.N.A.", directed by Visual Trap, which has directed all of the videos for DIR EN GREY.

"Bad D.N.A." track listing:

01. Specimen
02. Bad D.N.A.
03. Weapons Of Ecstacy
04. Hatejoke
05. Glorious Accident
06. Random Star
07. Picture
08. Battle Scars
09. School Spirit Delinquent
10. Exorcism Parade
11. Time To Say Goodbye (bonus track)

Friedman's ninth solo album, "Tokyo Jukebox", was released in Europe on February 22, 2010 via Mascot Records. The CD features extensive liner notes (written by Friedman in the "story behind the song" format) which are exclusive to the European release.
