Dave Mustaine (born in La Mesa, California, USA, 13 September 1961; age 50 years) is one of the most important musicians and thrash metal group Megadeth motors. Mustaine parents divorced when he was seven years old, and as a result, he grew up in various suburbs around the slums of Southern California.
Dave Mustaine is involved in the formation of the group in 1981 with Metallica James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, but was expelled for drug problems before the band was recording their first album.
Mustaine later formed Megadeth David Ellefson along the base. After releasing nine studio albums and a variety of concert recordings and compilations, in January 2002, Mustaine got a motorcycle accident resulting in injury in his left hand. Because he can no longer play the guitar, he declared himself out of Megadeth and in April of that year Megadeth disbanded.
In 2004, after undergoing intensive therapy, Mustaine has recovered from his injury and playing music again. He asked Chris Poland, former Megadeth guitarist to work in his solo project. Under pressure from the label, the album was then recorded as Megadeth and released The System Has Failed.
