About
Megadeth are one of thrash metal’s “Big Four,” founded by guitarist and vocalist Dave Mustaine after his exit from Metallica. From Los Angeles, they built a legacy on technical precision, breakneck riffing and Mustaine’s biting, politically charged lyricism, becoming one of the most influential heavy bands of all time.
The platinum landmark Countdown To Extinction broadened their reach, while anthems like “Symphony of Destruction” and “Holy Wars… The Punishment Due” remain pillars of the genre, the latter a dizzying showcase of Mustaine’s guitar wizardry. Their live firepower is captured on Night of the Living Megadeth – Live in New York City. With a farewell chapter on the horizon, Megadeth headline Sonic Temple 2026 and Louder Than Life 2026 alongside their Breakout: Hibernation of the Nations run.
