Canada’s The Metal Voice recently interviewed former Megadeth guitarist Jeff Young at the Gramercy Theatre in New York March 8, 2023.
Young talked about the bands up and coming new Live CD/DVD, gave an update on new material for the Kings of Thrash plus spoke about the time he turned down David Lee Roth in the late 80’s as the guitarist.
When he was asked about passing on David Lee Roth band in the late 80’s, Young said, “I passed on that, (Jason Becker guitarist got the gig), which I am glad he got him (Jason Becker), to do one killer project before he got sick, he was a buddy of mine. Once I saw his (Jason Becker) movie I was really glad I passed on it. I was being managed by Diamond Dave management that’s how I got that offer. I turned it down, I thought he (David Lee Roth) would end up in Vegas and that was all the way back then and where did he end up? I might E.S.P. or something. I just don’t really like his (David Lee Roth) voice, to be honest and now I since learned he is a lunatic, so I made a great choice, he’s nuts.”
Kings of Thrash, the new band featuring former Megadeth members David Ellefson (bass) and Jeff Young (guitar), the group, which also includes drummer Fred Aching as well as guitarist/vocalist Chaz Leon, along with the occasional guest appearance by another former MEGADETH member, Chris Poland (guitar)
In addition, the band has signed a worldwide deal with Cleopatra Records and will be releasing a live CD/DVD package called Best of the West…Live at the Whisky A Go Go on March 24. The 17-song set was recorded and filmed live during the band’s sold out show at the legendary Whisky A Go Go in West Hollywood, CA on October 15, 2022 and also features performances with Chris Poland. The DVD was directed by Michael Sarna for Inmotion Entertainment.
As they prepare for their extensive European tour with IGORRR, French doom metal visionaries HANGMAN’S CHAIR reveal a previously unreleased gem in the form of new single ‘Spleenwise’. Clocking in at over six minutes, ‘Spleenwise’ bears the trademark features of HANGMAN’s CHAIR, as it combines dark, brooding atmosphere with sombre melodies.
HANGMAN’S CHAIR stated about ‘Spleenwise’: “‘Laugh at everything, sad sex and poor decisions. Silence is addictive.’ Spleenwise is a neologism to express our state of mind towards everything that surrounds us: sit around, watch the world burn and appreciate the spleen. Plus, this song is a link between the past and the future, a track written many moons ago that closes the A Loner chapter, as it is the last remaining song of the studio sessions.”
Recently, HANGMAN’S CHAIR’s latest album A Loner celebrated its first anniversary. The band’s Nuclear Blast debut was released on February 11th, 2022. A Loner is available in various formats. Order your copy here: https://hangmanschair.bfan.link/a-loner

Time To Kill Records is proud to announce the signing of Polish death metal band SHODAN, one of the most exciting bands of the Polish underground, capable of merging death metal with progressive and experimental flavours.
The band is currently putting the finishing touches to the new album “None Shall Prevail”, which will be released in 2023.
SHODAN is a death metal three-piece conceived in Wrocław, Poland in 2013. Distinctive style of the band is a unique hybrid of death metal brutality, progressive approach towards song structures and melodies deeply rooted in cold wave aesthetics. In 2015 SHODAN together with producer Arkadiusz “Malta” Malczewski recorded tracks for their debut LP called “Protocol of Dying”. The record was released in spring 2016 under the cooperative flags of Defense Records and Deformeathing Production. The album was followed by a dozen of live appearances with acts like Sinister, Absu, Beheaded or Rotting Christ as well as appearances at festivals such as Gothoom, Into the Abyss, Metalmania or Castle Party.
After a successful cooperation with producer Kuba Mańkowski (Azarath, Behemoth, Blindead), in April 2020, the band released “Death, Rule Over Us” via Deformeathing Productions, which introduces a slightly different approach towards music with more experiments, raw, organic sound and cold wave melodic influneces involved. The album was again followed by a series of gigs with Hate, Krzysztof Drabikowski’s Batushka, Rotting Christ and Blood Incantation, and summer festivals, like Summer Dying Loud.
In 2023 SHODAN signed a record deal with Time To Kill Records to release their newest opus “None Shall Prevail”.

April 21, 203 will see WASTELAND CLAN release their hotly-anticipated debut album, entitled The End Of Time, through Massacre Records. Following a previously-released, first single – the album title track – today, the post-apocalyptic metal prophets have premiered a music video for new track “Rising Storm”!
Suited in the garments of the last days, it is finally time for demoness Lilith Fox, Mashl J. (a.k.a. the Messiah), and their three prophets Rayzon, Zach Volcanic and Smoky 616 to heed their destiny, to carry out salvation to the world. All that is left after the apocalypse is combined on record: Hate and fear but also hope, brutal as well as earthshaking drums and enchanting choirs, stories of death as well as guidance for the lost and unbelieving. “The 10 new songs are each assigned to one of the “New 10 Commandments” of the WASTELAND CLAN“, the band recently explained.
“”Rising Storm” is our dirge, a reminder of all those who have gone before us”, the clan comments. “We face the dark storm of grief and hopelessness with strong faith. We who are doing what we are doing. We carry the message out into the world. The message of those who live on in us. Thus, death is the true lie and the fear of death is a farce. Long live the Clan!“
The End Of Time was produced by WASTELAND CLAN, and was mixed and mastered by Oliver Schmidt at Sirius Sound Lab. Coming out as CD Digipak, limited Vinyl LP and Digital formats on April 21, 2023, the pre-sale is available at THIS LOCATION! The album artwork was created through the visionary mind of vocalist Lilith Fox.
