KINGS OF THRASH

“THE MEGA YEARS”

Featuring David Ellefson & Jeff Young

KINGS OF THRASH “The MEGA Years” features GRAMMY® Award winning bassist David Ellefson, along with guitarist Jeff Young, reuniting to perform the early Thrash classics upon which the genre was built and defined in the 1980s. Showcasing the songs from the Killing is My Business…and Business is Good & So Far, So Good…So What, Peace Sells...But Who's Buying? albums in their entirety, plus some fun covers and deep cut classics, Ellefson & Young stay true to material not performed live in several decades, along with the spirit of the era which launched one of the greatest genres of heavy metal music.

Says Ellefson, “I think we’ve assembled an energetic song list and group of musicians to capture the spirit of a genre we helped create & define so many years ago. Fans have been requesting these songs for a long time now and it seems like a good moment to bring them back to the stage”.

Jeff Young adds, “The mission here is to bring a connection of goodwill through the music, with a collaboration of musicians and friends in our community. Our thrash tribe casts a wide net to give people hope in a time when they’re looking for something positive & uplifting. What better way to do that than through the music which has become the soundtrack to our lives.”

The KINGS OF THRASH “The MEGA Years” features Chaz Leon on lead vocals & guitar with Fred Aching on drums. Also, joining the band on several US and Australia dates, special guest guitarist Chris Poland.
