Dave Mustaine from Megadeth

Megadeth have long been at the top of their thrash metal game. The band's 1980s beginnings are well documented, with Dave Mustaine fresh from his tenure in Metallica and hell-bent on success with his new venture.

Fast forward four decades and Megadeth are one of the 'Big Four' cornerstones of thrash - alongside Metallica, Anthrax and Slayer. The final ever Megadeth studio album is released on the 23rd of January, alongside a career-spanning documentary called 'Behind The Mask'.

Frontman and founder Dave Mustaine will reveal his Rock God to Shaun...and unbelievably, Dave says he and his chosen Rock God have never crossed paths!
