Metal titans Megadeth will ring in their 35th anniversary this year, and they’re letting fans in on the celebration with a new, 35-song career retrospective called Warheads On Foreheads.  Due on March 22 from Capitol/UMe, the anthology includes tracks from their entire studio career, from their debut, Killing Is My Business…And Business Is Good, to their 2017 Grammy winner, Dystopia.  It will be availble in a 3-CD configuration; digital download and streaming; a standard, black vinyl 4-LP version; and a limited-edition 4-LP “metallic silver” color vinyl set that is available only from Megadeth’s online store, as are a number of deluxe merchandise bundles.

“Thirty five years ago, I chose the name Megadeth for my band and I see these songs as the most efficient weapons in the bands arsenal,” says founding member Dave Mustaine. “‘Warheads on Foreheads’ is a U.S. military term for targeting efficiency. It’s all about using the right tool for the job and these tracks were created for maximum destruction (or stopping power, or something else!).”

Check out the full track listing and pre-order links for the CD set and vinyl version below!
