Endgame ist das zwölfte Album der US-amerikanischen Thrash-Metal-Band Megadeth und erschien am 11. September 2009. Endgame is the twelfth studio album by American heavy metal band Megadeth. Released on September 9, 2009, it is the first album featuring guitarist Chris Broderick following Glen Drover's departure in 2008. The album debuted at number 9 on the Billboard 200. Singles were made for "Head Crusher" and "44 Minutes". Background The first preview of any song off Endgame was a six-minute video featuring the band's English producer Andy Sneap describing the process of mixing the new Megadeth track "Head Crusher" at his studio in Derbyshire, England. In the video, Sneap says, "It's certainly old-school Megadeth — that's what I like." Endgame was recorded at the band's own personal studio, aptly named Vic's Garage, in San Marcos, California USA.Dave Mustaine, Megadeth's frontman and co-lead guitarist, has said, "It is fast, it is heavy, there is singing, yelling, speaking, and guest voices (maybe not singing — more like in "Captive Honour"), the soloing is insane. We have some great song concepts, like 'The Right To Go Insane' is a song about having been wiped out, like so many Americans, from the recession and potential depression years of 2000, or 'Bite the Hand', which is a song about the greed of the fiduciary leaders of the financial world and how they just didn't care about the responsibility they had to the public. There are also songs like '1,320', a song about nitro fuel funny cars. He said the songs "How The Story Ends" and "This Day We Fight!" were both inspired by "warrior creed from the great Sun Tzu with the use of drums and flags in ancient war, and an impassioned plea from Aragorn to his loyal fighters in Lord of the Rings trilogy, respectively." He adds "I also have some bizarre songs, like 'Head Crusher', which is about the medieval torture device, and "Endgame", the title track, which is about a bill that ex-President George W. Bush signed into law that gave him the power to put American citizens in detention centers here in the United States, and a favorite lyric of mine on this record about the North Hollywood bank robbery ["44 minutes"] of 1997." On the September 10th edition of the Alex Jones Show, Jones suggested that the title and cover of Endgame was inspired by the movie Endgame written and directed also by Jones. Jones stated that he had sent Mustaine a copy of the movie after he had appeared on the radio program in 2008. It was later confirmed by Dave Mustaine on the Alex Jones show that the album name was inspired by his documentary Endgame
