Finishing repaying my debt to the readers, this issue of “Weekly Music Preview” is special and dedicated to my personal favorite band Megadeth. Megadeth was formed in 1983, when the leader of Megadeth and the former lead guitarist of Metallica - Dave Mustaine, was fired for alcohol and drug abuse. Two months after being fired, he formed his own band (Megadeth) in Los Angeles, thirsting for revenge on Metallica for firing him. Quote: “After getting fired from Metallica, all I remember is that I wanted blood. Theirs. I wanted to be faster and heavier than them” – said Dave Mustaine. In 27 years the band changed 20 official members, with Dave Mustaine being the only one left from the original bands composition.
As pioneers of trash metal in America, Megadeth has been nominated 8 times for the title of “Best Metal Performance”, although did not achieve a single win in this annual “Grammy Awards” ceremony. Despite the “Grammy Awards”, Dave Mustaine managed to be nominated and win the title of the Golden God in the second annual “Revolver Golden God awards 2009″.

These are a few of their most admired songs:
Megadeth - Sweating Bullets (live):

Megadeth – A Tout Le Monde:

And last, but not least - Megadeth - “United Abominations”:

This was Mr. T, wishing you good night and enjoy the legends.
