According to a new cameo video that Dave Mustaine made for a fan and some hints that Digiorgio has dropped on social media, it looks like he might potentially be the new bassist on Megadeth’s upcoming release. Fans Believe They Revealed the New Megadeth Bassist. This Is Their Evidence This is all speculation of course. But I have to say if it’s true I might actually pick up the new Megadeth. I haven’t followed anything by them since Rust In Peace. Ellefson will always be the “Megadeth” bassist to me, but I love the stuff Digiorgio laid down for Death and Sadus and his work on the past couple of Testament records has also been excellent. If he is on it, I wonder if Mustaine let him go off and do lots of crazy counterpoint/fills like he did in Death or if used his fretless at all?
I would love it if Mustaine let Digiorgio and Verbeuren just rip it up on a few songs. A guy can hope, right?
Looks like he is playing on it! Cool! I wonder if he held back and kept it simple like has on the newer Testament albums or if Mustaine let him go off like he did with all the classic Death/Sadus stuff. Testament's Steve DiGiorgio Played Bass on New Megadeth Album
