with cover art
on iTunes on September 24, 2010, and on September 28, Roadrunner Records
made the song available for streaming on its website.
It is Megadeth's first release with bassist Dave Ellefson since 2002, following his return to the band in 2010. The song was well received by critics and was described as one of the hardest songs in the Guitar Hero
franchise. Roadrunner Records submitted the song to consideration for Best Metal Performance

by Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine

About the recording of the song, Mustaine remarked, "I thought it was a great idea for us. We've had experience with games in the past, and our songs have been in sports game and Grand Theft Auto
, but we never really got into the Guitar Hero
thing. When they talked to us about doing this, I never imagined it would be something this honorable." Later in the same interview he continued, "Only once in my career have I had this happen before," referring to 1991's soundtrack for Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey
, to which Megadeth contributed "Go to Hell
". "We had written something and Interscope told me to make the lyrics even darker. Activision
heard the track, and said, 'We want more solos
on it.' And I said, OK, I can do that." Before release, for promotional purposes, Dave Mustaine had publicly played the song on Guitar Hero showcasing the high level of difficulty of the song, to a high degree of media coverage. To further promote the game and the band, a t-shirt was released featuring the cover artwork.
The full lyrics were later confirmed and released officially after the release of the song, along with official single cover art, featuring the band's iconic mascot
