Megadeth is a thrash metal band from Los Angeles, California, USA. Formed in 1983 by guitarist/vocalist Dave Mustaine and bass guitarist David Ellefson, the band played a significant role in popularizing thrash metal in the late 1980s. Despite facing numerous line-up changes and struggles with substance abuse, Megadeth achieved stability and success with their 1990 release "Rust in Peace," which remains their most commercially successful album. After disbanding in 2002 due to an injury, Mustaine reformed the band in 2004 and has since released five studio albums.
