Megadeth release new music video for ‘Let There Be Shred!’

MEGADETH have released a new music video!

The thrash metal icons have unveiled a video for their latest single, Let There Be Shred!, taken from their upcoming and final self-titled studio album, due January 23rd, 2026 via Tradecraft in partnership with BLKIIBLK. Directed by Keith Leman, the clip combines live performance footage with mixed martial arts sequences featuring Dave Mustaine.

Speaking about the track, vocalist/guitarist Dave Mustaine says, “when MEGADETH started we said we would be fast and furious…we said so on the flyers we handed out. This song is fast and furious. Know it! It has a very hooky chorus that draws you in and you can’t help but play air guitar and headbang to this one.

It’s the second video from the new record that we made with Keith [Leman], who also directed I Don’t Care. It was a blast to make and it’s a tribute to my first Sensei, Benny ‘The Jet’ Urquidez and my Professor, Reggie Almieda. Everyone on the set was really stoked to see each of us do our stunts. In the end, we got the balance of shredding and ass kicking just right!”
