Megadeth.com &bull Nov 6, 2011
There was a time when bands like Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath used to release a new album every year, and in some cases, two albums within the same year. That period of prolific album releases is long gone, and now it's normal to be made to wait three, four or even five years for a new album, specially from bands that have been around for a while. Megadeth's twelfth studio release "Endgame", which also marked Chris Broderick's debut on guitar, came out just over two years ago, and even though the band could not perform much of… Full Story »

Leslie West on Working with Slash and Billy Gibbons, Gaining a Prosthetic
Gibson Lifestyle - Features &bull Sep 14, 2011
Leslie West is a fighter. Earlier this year, the legendary Mountain axe-slinger was rushed to the hospital, his leg infected from complications with diabetes.
