"Die Dead Enough" was one of the two singles Megadeth fired off in 2004 from The System Has Failed, their tenth studio album and the first Dave Mustaine made after recovering from the arm injury he suffered in 2002. Mustaine wrote it alone, sings lead and plays guitar, and an old hand is back beside him: Chris Poland, who had played on Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! and Peace Sells... but Who's Buying?

With original bassist and co-founder David Ellefson absent for the first time on a Megadeth studio record, session players Jimmie Lee Sloas and Vinnie Colaiuta hold down bass and drums. Charles Judge adds keyboards, Eric Darken percussion, and Lance Dean, Ralph Patlan, Robert Venable and Chris Rodriguez fill in the extra voices behind Mustaine's snarl.
