MEGADETH Unveil Punk-Driven New Single “I Don’t Care” From Upcoming Farewell Album

Megadeth have released their punk-leaning new single “I Don’t Care”, serving as the second preview of their upcoming self-titled farewell album. The track—also the album’s second song—follows last month’s lead single “Tipping Point”. A music video for “I Don’t Care” was filmed with director Keith J. Leman.

The band’s seventeenth studio album, and final record, arrives January 23rd. A massive global farewell tour will launch immediately afterward, with Dave Mustaine and company expecting the run to last roughly three to five years before officially calling it a career.
