Megadeth released Killing Is My Business… and Business Is Good! back in 1985, and the band still consists of half that lineup – bassist Dave Ellefson and frontman Dave Mustaine. Now 32 years later, now with Angra guitarist Kiko Loureiro and ex-Soilwork drummer Dirk Verbeuren, Mustaine may or may not be hinting at re-recording the album.
Mustaine responds to one fan who posted the album on Twitter with the following –
We have plans for something with killing coming up I'm sure you will like https://t.co/Lj0TbKLNrs

Then another fan asks "I imagine a re-recording with Kiko and Dirk… Am I wrong?" and Mustaine responds twice… one of 'em encouraging, and one of 'em vague.
Well, yes. https://t.co/NlVgm5zvFJ

It sounds like something is definitely happening with Killing Is My Business, whether it's a re-recording or otherwise. Mustaine also adds that there's a Dystopia tour live album coming soon, and he'll confirm the details later. Maybe the two are related, and Killing Is My Business will be performed live in full and recorded that way?
We are discussing it and I will confirm as soon as I can. https://t.co/FoPbBGYZiS

2017 is looking pretty promising for Megadeth and its fans, huh?
