In other news, MEGADETH guitarist Glen Drover has posted the following message on the band's web site:

"Yesterday was such a great day for me, as the the new MEGADETH record was finally released!!! Looking back now, we really had a lot of fun making this record, and certainly worked very hard to make the best record we could. I am very happy and proud of the outcome. Now go out there and get a copy, will ya????!!!!"

According to Hits Daily Double, MEGADETH is on track to sell around 60,000 copies of its latest CD, "United Abominations", in the United States in its first week of release to land in the Top 10 (possibly Top 5) of the Billboard chart. This is more than the 46,000 first-week tally registered by its predecessor, "The System Has Failed" (which debuted at No. 18 on The Billboard 200 chart),and is in line with the 61,000 opening number of 2001's "The World Needs A Hero" (No. 16).

MEGADETH's video for the new version of the song "A Tout Le Monde", now retitled "A Tout Le Monde (Set Me Free)", is available for viewing at this location.
