Ellefson On Why He Thinks Megadeth Members Quit
. (Classic Rock) Megadeth bassist David Ellefson believes former bandmates Chris Broderick and Shawn Drover left because they were facing nearly a year without playing live. The guitarist and drummer will this weekend start recording with their as-yet untitled band, featuring former Scar The Martyr singer Henry Derek Bonner and Shadows Fall's Matt Bachand on bass. Ellefson tells Loud: "I think Shawn should be remembered for some great stuff - the guy bleeds metal, that's for sure. But I think, with him, knowing there was going to be almost a year off the road; I sensed he wanted to get moving on some other things." The bassist admits there seemed to be little advance notice of the lineup change, but thinks he knows why. "While we were on the road I didn't see any chinks in the armour," he says. "But once you get off the road, seeing there was going to be a year off - actually a little more, maybe - that's a long time." Read more here.
