In this exclusive interview, Meltdown sits down with former Megadeth bassist David Ellefson to talk about the moment he discovered Alice in Chains on tour, his journey beyond Megadeth, and the emotional creation of the Nick Menza documentary This Was My Life.
Ellefson shares never-before-heard stories from the road—including how Alice in Chains went from a forgotten opener to Clash of the Titans—and opens up about Lane Staley, staying clean on tour, and how he’s found peace in music today.
Plus: What it was like creating a legacy project for his late bandmate, the spirit of songwriting, and why Ellefson is saying “yes” to everything in this new chapter of his life.
