Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine recently premiered and explained a new track called 'Whose Life (is it Anyways?)' from their upcoming record 'TH1RT3EN'.

Megadeth are back with a new collection of 13 songs for their thirteenth album -- which is titled...'TH1RT3EN'. The record doesn't drop until November 1st, but Dave Mustaine guested on Full Metal Jackie last week to discuss and debut the new track 'Whose Life (is is Anyways?)'. Mustaine said of the new track:

"When we got to that particular song, we’d gotten a lot of the types of typical Megadeth songs written and on the record, so when ‘Who’s Life’ came around it was almost like, 'Wow, this is really something different.' It reminded me of back in 1992 when a lot of the punk bands and alternative bands were all vying for the same piece of property with the metal band and there was just a split second of divinity where all the music could have been anybody. I listened to the hook line and the chorus on it and it reminds me a lot of back when I was a kid, too, there was a song where this guy was saying, 'You can’t even run your own life, I’ll be damned if you run mine' and I thought 'Wow that’s probably pretty fitting still.' You’ve got people telling us how to live our lives and at the end of the day , who’s life is it anyways, it’s mine. I’m the one who has to do the time when stuff goes wrong, if I make a bad decision, it’s my flesh that pays the bill and a lot of times in our business, you know this, we have people who work with us and for us and as soon as we run out of blood they’re onto the next person. And that’s sad."
