Dave Mustaine VS The UN

Is this even a fair fight? I think not. I mean, who wants to mess with Dave Mustaine?
Megadeth has just released a new album, and you know, it’s about time I gave these guys another spin.
It’s the lack of outrage that has Mustaine outraged. “Why doesn’t Michael Moore do an expose on the [...]
