His nihilistic lyrics and unrelenting musical attack resulted in a series of thrash metal classics from\u00a0Megadeth\u00a0throughout the 1980s and into the early &#8217;90s. Along with being considered high water marks of the metal genre, 1986&#8217;s Peace Sells&#8230; But Who&#8217;s Buying? and 1992&#8217;s\u00a0Countdown to Extinction\u00a0sold in the millions and influenced the next generation of speed metal bands. Throughout\u00a0Megadeth&#8217;s many lineup changes, the two core members were bassist\u00a0Dave Ellefson\u00a0and guitarist\/vocalist\u00a0Dave Mustaine\u00a0(born September 13, 1961), who was the band&#8217;s official leader.\u00a0Mustaine\u00a0grew up in the suburbs of Southern California, where he was raised by his mother in a broken home; frequently, his mother left him to be raised by aunts and uncles, who never encouraged his musical inclinations and often belittled him for his fondness for heavy metal. In 1981, he formed\u00a0Metallica\u00a0with\u00a0James Hetfield\u00a0and\u00a0Lars Ulrich.\u00a0Mustaine\u00a0spent two years with\u00a0Metallica, developing a strong cult following in California&#8217;s underground metal scene, before he was kicked out of the group in 1983, allegedly over his substance abuse. Immediately following his firing, he formed\u00a0Megadeth\u00a0with\u00a0Ellefson,\u00a0Slayer\u00a0guitarist\u00a0Kerry King, and drummer\u00a0Lee Rauch. This lineup was extremely short-lived, and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/artist\/mustaine-mn0000962906\">Mustaine<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Ellefson\u00a0soon recruited guitarist\u00a0Chris Poland\u00a0and drummer\u00a0Gar Samuelson.&#8221; &#8211; All Music<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Droogies!
