It's Chris Broderick...

Chris Broderick's joining Megadeth is just a rumor right now, but I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up in the band.

I'm not sure that Chris was ever a permanent member of Nevermore, but I know that he has worked with them off-and-on for years, including 2007.

Chris really is an awesome player, and was great with Jag Panzer. The man he replaced, Joey Taffola, smoked as well- "The Fourth Judgement" is one of my favorite power-metal discs.

But I will defend Glenn Drover- I thought he was a good player and fit Megadeth well.

Chris hasn't played with Nevermore for a long time now...he's been back with Jag Panzer.

He was re-recruted after his last stand in...

I was really hoping to hear Chris write with Nevermore...I think Chris and Jeff brainstorming new stuff would result in some cool shit!

I think it is such a waste if Chris is the guy...Unless he is just being used because he can play anything on quick notice...That makes sense...

[thunderhead]

I really cant wait to see the end product.... Dave+Chris= ?

It can suck if he overshreds it though

[NextInLine]

Damn. I was hoping Nevermore were going to offer Broderick a place in the band. I've not seen Broderick play with Nevermore in the flesh but all of the youtube footage is outstanding. I just can't see Megadeth as a good move for him.

Sorry but you can't get much better than Megadeth imo

[Davey]

awesome!!!!!

[elrrek]

Did he not do a Japanese tour at the end of last year?

WOW , if this is true, great score for Mustaine, huge loss for Nevermore.
I wonder is Mustaine will break out a 7 so he can keep up with Chris

Damn I was so hoping to see Nevermore live with Loomis and Broderick on stage together.

...and now you guys finally know. I told you it was gonna be a great player

[Bengal]

Who?

Kidding...

[joshulator]

I wonder how they'll make the official announcement?
Dean is making a big deal on their website about how they're going to do a big internet coverage of NAMM again. Maybe they'll have their cameras follow Dave wandering around aimlessly until he just happens to bump into Chris and offer him the job.

People always say Steve is not as good as the previous Nevermore guitarist Tim Calvert but I can't think of anyone better to fit Nevermore, Steve is/was the best choice imo

Let's see if Chris joining Megadeth is true. I wonder how he will play the Marty solos, hope he won't put meaningless shred parts like Glen did and kill the phrasing

So who's playing second guitar in Nevermore now? Is Steve Smyth back in?

I wish! Steve Smyth's just perfect for Nevermore both playing and looks-wise.
