Today's band is Megadeth. Another one of my most favorite bands. Megadeth is also considered one of the "Big Four" for Thrash Metal. (the other three being Slayer, Anthrax, and Metallica) Megadeth is a Thrash Metal band from Los Angeles, California. They were formed in 1983. Dave Mustaine and David Ellefson formed the band a little while after Dave left Metallica. (one of the best decisions ever made...cause Megadeth = cooler than Metallica) Megadeth has released 12 studio albums so far. The latest album from Megadeth is "Endgame" and it is AWESOME! Members: Dave Mustaine (vocals/guitar) David Ellefson (bass) Chris Broderick (guitar) Shawn Drover (drums) Former Members: Due to the amount of former members (19 former members O_O) here is a link to the list of former members. Because I'm lazy to type them all. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Megadeth_band_members Albums: Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good! (1985) Peace Sells... but Who's Buying?
