Following the 2005 release of Megadeth�s Greatest Hits: Back to the Start CD and deluxe CD/DVD collections of singles and fan favorites, Arsenal of Megadeth provides fans with the most in-depth look ever provided into the band�s storied history. In addition to 20 of the band�s music videos, Arsenal contains a bevy of career-spanning previously unreleased material, including behind the scenes audition footage, a 1995 band appearance on MTV�s �Most Wanted,� a clip of Dave Mustaine�s guest appearance on �The Drew Carey Show,� and concert footage from 2005�s GIGANTOUR - essential cuts for every Megafan.

In 2005, Megadeth was the headbanging, headlining act of Dave Mustaine�s GIGANTOUR, a tour founded on the principles of �fan-friendly� pricing and accessibility to the music. Mustaine�s vision for GIGANTOUR was to "put together a festival that consisted of positive bands that play heavy music in a high energy environment." 2005�s inaugural GIGANTOUR did just that and was an immense international success. Arsenal of Megadeth contains previously unreleased concert footage from the tour, including a live performance of Megadeth�s metal anthem, �Peace Sells.�

Megadeth was formed in 1983, and in the words of The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years director Penelope Spheeris, �[have] always been intelligent and uncompromising; they gave an entire generation a new perspective on our troubled world.�

Megadeth members Dave Mustaine, Glen Drover (lead and rhythm guitar), James MacDonough (bass) and Shawn Drover (drums) keep themselves engaged with their fanbase by regularly posting to the official Megadeth website (www.megadeth.com).
