It was after being fired from Metallica in 1983 that Dave Mustaine decided to create Megadeth. He had a simple and clear goal in mind: "to see Metallica's blood flow", nothing less. A thirst for revenge that would give rise to some of the most beautiful pages of thrash metal. A nice twist of fate.
Started in 1985 with Killing Is My Business... and Business Is Good!, Megadeth's discography now includes around fifteen albums. The Americans' latest opus bears the sweet name of The Sick, the Dying... and the Dead! and was released in 2022.
Even if a spirit of revenge has long animated Megadeth, the hatchet seems to have been buried during the joint tour of the apostles of thrash metal that are Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Anthrax (aka the Big Four of Thrash). So this is a Dave Mustaine at peace with his demons – but not peaceful for all that! – which we find on the Hellfest stage. Plug in the guitars!
Filmed on June 27, 2024 at the Hellfest Open Air Festival, Clisson.
