Also fitting that today is the announcement of Gigantour 2012 as Megadeth's 13th studio album "TH1RT3EN" on Roadrunner Records  is out in stores today.  The new album was recorded at the band's own Vic's Garage studio in California with original bassist Dave Ellefson - his first studio appearance with the band in a decade and marks the first time the band has worked with producer Johnny K.
