6/2/2023 0 Comments Dave mustaine 1992I woke up this morning to a text message from my son, with the news of Nick Menza’s passing. We, like all brothers, would disagree at times, but our bond was strong throughout.”ĭave Mustaine’s full Nick Menza remembrance: As we navigated through the pitfalls of life and the music business, our first album with Nick, Rust in Peace, and subsequent albums Countdown to Extinction and Youthanasia, kept up the momentum. We all wanted world domination, with so much of our lives and dreams ahead of us. At the time, the band already had its first album, which only served to stoke the fire. “We asked Nick to join Megadeth as our drummer in 1989. “Originally a tech for the band, Nick soon displayed such talent and personality, it didn’t take long for us to realize he belonged onstage with us behind the kit,” Mustaine wrote. The frontman wrote that Menza, who played on “Holy Wars,” “Symphony of Destruction” and “Trust,” among other hits, “remained a great friend, a true professional and a larger than life personality,” throughout his life. Dave Mustaine has released a statement in tribute to Nick Menza, Megadeth‘s drummer for most of the Nineties, who died on Saturday.
