Ever since bassist David Ellefson was kicked out of Megadeth following a web-based intercourse scandal, he’s been concerned in quite a few tasks with a complete slew of different artists. One such challenge has been Kings of Thrash, a band comprised of just about solely ex-Megadeth members that swore it was going to maneuver from the Dave Mustaine-fronted band by *checks notes* enjoying Megadeth covers reside.

And whereas they’ve since launched an unique tune that feels like a diss monitor geared toward their former boss, it feels like that may be one of many solely occasions that form of factor occurs. Throughout an interview with George Dionne of KNAC (transcribed by Blabbermouth), Ellefson stated the music that’s being written by himself and Younger could possibly be launched beneath a unique challenge identify altogether.

“We’re deciding, as we’re writing new materials… As a result of, look, it doesn’t must be thrash. It doesn’t even must be from a Megadeth origin, actually. Regardless that that was form of the origin story, it doesn’t must sound like that. It needs to be us, who we are actually right this moment, I believe. So, we’ve determined Kings of Thrash, for certain, is that this [touring project] enjoying the music of yesterday. After which we’re simply deciding now, okay, this new music, to suit inside that, ought to it’s Jeff Younger and David Ellefson doing one thing collectively? — Ellefson-Younger.

“I believe that’s form of one of many enjoyable issues now, is why not? Let it turn out to be its personal factor… And I believe that’s the very best place to go along with any of the artistic stuff. It’s like water — it creates rivers and creeks as a result of it goes the place it must go. And if the land and the rock isn’t gonna transfer, nicely, then if finds one other path. And I believe music is just about the identical manner.”

Ellefson-Younger is a kind of different tasks that the ex-Megadeth bassist has been engaged on since his ousting. Naturally, it’s form of fallen by the wayside a bit as Kings of Thrash went on tour and Dieth launched a document. Previously, Ellefson stated his challenge with Younger would launch “one-off singles relatively than a full-length album,” although that would change.

We’ll simply have to attend and see if we’re going to get any extra anti-Dave Mustaine music from Younger and Ellefson sooner or later.
