Music is real and it comes from within us. "The good news is it's always there because it's music. In a lot of ways, that's the high that we always chase," Ellefson said. "Whether it's just playing in rehearsal, or a recording session or we're on stage, there's that feeling. Megadeth's biggest commercial success came in the late 1980s and early 1990s with such albums as "Peace Sells … But Who's Buying," "So Far, So Good … So What" and "Countdown To Extinction." However, the band has enjoyed consistent acclaim throughout the years.īetween producing new records just about every two years and touring to support them, the band has definitely kept busy. At the same time, our history and our legacy is so highly celebrated it's almost demanded of us that we go back bring those things forward as well." "We always have a new record we seem to be promoting, in this case 'Super Collider,' which came out about a year ago.

It's a luxurious position to be in," Ellefson said. I think any group that has been around as long as a band like Megadeth, has that same situation. "There's a staple of songs that are always in the set list. The show at Rock USA is just one stop on Megadeth's World Tour in support of "Super Collider," the band's most recent album, released in 2013.Įllefson said the band will play music from the album, however their shows encompass the full 30-year run of the band. When you're performing, that's not a me moment.

"As much you have to go into your private space to create the music, once it's out there and been recorded then you become a performer of that song and being on that stage you are there for the audience. "The festivals are always great," Ellefson said.
