Description & Specifications

When Rust in Peace was released in 1990, the future of Megadeth was uncertain. Following their appearance at the record-breaking Monsters of Rock festival, and with powerful new releases from Slayer, Anthrax, and Metallica dominating the charts, the pressure to produce a thrilling album was greater than ever. In Rust in Peace: The Inside Story of the Megadeth Masterpiece, the band’s singer and guitarist, Dave Mustaine, offers readers a unique glimpse into the artistry and madness behind the creation of the band’s most iconic album. He recounts the grueling process of hiring band members and their supporters, managing egos and side activities during the album's success, as well as the retreat under the pressures of fame and glory - which ultimately led to the band's dissolution. And yet, the collapse of Megadeth was just the beginning? The pains of birthing the album pale in comparison to what followed. Alcohol, drugs, sex, money, power, wealth, prestige, the lies fed to them by the industry - and the lies they told each other - threatened to eat away at the band’s relationship like rust, destroying it until only the music remained. It includes a foreword by Slash.
