Why is Megadeth spelled wrong?

The term “Megadeath” stuck with Mustaine and he wrote a song with the spelling slightly changed to Megadeth, which, according to Mustaine, represented the annihilation of power. He formed the band Fallen Angels, and after numerous band members, the band’s name was changed to Megadeth.

Who is better Megadeth or Metallica?

Anthrax has the most unique mascot in heavy metal. Instead of a demonic beast or undead specter, the band adopted a grinning, balding, goofball as their official representative.
