In the new video seen above, MEGADETH drummer Dirk Verbeuren performs a playthrough of “Mechanix”, from the classic album, Killing Is My Business… And Business Is Good!
Megadeth is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California, formed in 1983 with its roots in thrash metal, a genre that its founder, singer/songwriter and guitarist Dave Mustaine helped pioneer. The band has since released 14 studio albums.
Mustaine’s musical roots began early on listening to AC/DC and Led Zeppelin, and took form in the New Wave of British Heavy Metal when he co-founded Metallica. Megadeth emerged in 1985 at the forefront of the thrash/speed metal scene with their seminal debut KILLING IS MY BUSINESS…AND BUSINESS IS GOOD (recently recognized by VH1 as the “Greatest Thrash Metal Debut Album of All Time”), and continued on a blistering path of albums and tours throughout the decade.
