"'Puppet Parade' is about somebody's mundane life and how they go through life with everyday being the same as the day before," explains Dave Mustaine. "It is about a person who has a dead-end job, a dead-end relationship, a dead-end life. Many of us are going through this monotony, even right now. I wanted to share 'Puppet Parade' to try and illustrate how we often show people what we want them to see, instead of how we really feel."
The single follows "I Don't Care", "Tipping Point," and “Let There Be Shred” as the fourth song issued from the project, which was co-produced by Mustaine and Chris Rakestraw and marks the follow-up to 2022's “The Sick, the Dying… and the Dead!”
Up next for Megadeth, they'll kick off their farewell tour in North America with a cross-country headlining tour of Canada launching February 15 in Victoria, BC and include stops in Calgary, Winnipeg, and Ottawa before wrapping March 6 in Quebec City, QC.
