Metal fans rejoiced back in 2010 and 2011 when the Big 4 of thrash (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax) joined forces for a handful of shows around the world, including the most recent one at New York's Yankee Stadium in September 2011. Fans still holding out hope that these four metal powerhouses might join forces again on the same stage in the future may not get their way.

Watch out Orange County! 'Metal Masters 5' will be taking place at the House of Blues in Anaheim, Calif. with an all-star lineup of metal greats taking part. The event is scheduled for Jan. 22, 2014.

Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine was the guest on Full Metal Jackie's radio show this past weekend. The metal legend discussed the band's recent tour with Iron Maiden as well as the role social media plays in music these days. If you missed Full Metal Jackie's show, check out her full interview with Dave Mustaine:

Remember the time when former Megadeth drummer Nick Menza nearly cut off his friggin' arm with a saw blade? Well, you're in luck, because Menza is planning to auction off the blood-stained, rusty saw blade that nearly ended his career.

Megadeth are gearing up for the release of their ‘Countdown to Extinction: Live’ recording on Sept. 24 and have just shared a trailer with fans, giving a tasty preview of what’s in store.

As you may know, there's a truly unique sense of humor within the metal community. Many specific and pinpointed topics of hilarity are playfully aimed at Metallica, whether it be the lack of Jason Newsted's bass on '…And Justice for All,' drummer Lars Ulrich's snare sound on 'St...

Here's a brain-scrambler to sink your teeth into -- Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine has been incredibly outspoken in recent years about becoming a born-again Christian. However, despite his statements on Christianity and committing biblical ideology to his personal belief system, Mustaine was recently quoted as saying, "I don't believe in religion."

Did you know that Dave Mustaine's daughter is a singer? At only 15 years old, Electra Mustaine recently appeared on the Seattle morning TV show 'New Day Northwest' along with musician Jason Kertson to perform a stripped-down version of the Megadeth classic 'A Tout le Monde.'

Gigantour 2013 is now in the books, and during the final show last night (Aug. 11) in Toronto, Dave Mustaine and Jason Newsted jammed the Metallica classic 'Phantom Lord' during Megadeth's set (watch fan-shot video above).

Here's some news that may or may not surprise you. Since Megadeth's released 'Super Collider,' two months ago, album sales have been somewhat disappointing. In fact, 'Super Collider' was outsold this week by Metallica's 'Black Album,' which is 22 years old.

Megadeth's new 'Super Collider' album found the band recording outside material for the first time since 1988. And they chose wisely, reaching into Thin Lizzy's vaults to cover the band's classic 'Cold Sweat.'

Given that he founded Megadeth, it would seem safe to assume that death has never exactly been far from Dave Mustaine's mind. But lately, it seems as though he's been even more focused on mortality -- specifically his own.
