Lamb of God, released a hair-raising new version of Megadeth’s “Wake Up Dead,” the most prominent song from Megadeth’s 1986 multi-platinum selling album Peace Sells… but Who’s Buying? featuring Megadeath’s Dave Mustaine.
LAMB OF GOD has released “Wake Up Dead” featuring MEGADETH leader Dave Mustaine as well as the other three members of the current lineup of MEGADETH. LAMB OF GOD vocalist Randy Blythe, guitarists Mark Morton and Willie Adler, bassist John Campbell,
and drummer Art Cruz recorded the MEGADETH classic remotely and recruited the MEGADETH frontman himself to feature guitar and vocals on the song. Mustaine lent his signature vocal to the track, with lead guitar work on the various solos by Morton, as well as Mustaine and MEGADETH guitarist Kiko Loureiro. The recording also includes vocal contributions from Loureiro and other MEGADETH members Dirk Verbeuren and James LoMenzo.
Megadeth said, “Ahead of the Metal Tour of the Year kicking off next weekend, we’ve joined forces with Lamb of God to revisit and remake our classic ‘Wake Up Dead’ track, featuring Dave Mustaine with appearances from all four members of Megadeth.”
They added, “We had a blast with this one, and we can’t wait to see everyone along Metal Tour of the Year Part 2 soon!”
