===Dave Mustaine/Megadeth===
Former lead guitarist and [[Megadeth]] frontman [[Dave Mustaine]] has been involved in a historic feud with Metallica. During his time as a founding member during the first two years of the band, Mustaine's tenure was marred by his alcoholism and even a physical altercation with James Hetfield.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.revolvermag.com/music/megadeths-dave-mustaine-says-it-was-dumb-punch-metallicas-james-hetfield|title=MEGADETH'S DAVE MUSTAINE SAYS IT WAS "DUMB" TO PUNCH METALLICA'S JAMES HETFIELD|date=September 21, 2022|access-date=February 2, 2024|archive-date=February 2, 2024|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240202011904/https://www.revolvermag.com/music/megadeths-dave-mustaine-says-it-was-dumb-punch-metallicas-james-hetfield|url-status=live}}</ref> Mustaine continued to make numerous inflammatory statements against his former band in the press due to buried tension primarily stemming from his firing in 1983 among other issues such as existing songwriting credits across Metallica's first three albums.<ref>{{cite web|last=Crawford|first=Allyson B.|title=Megadeth Frontman Dave Mustaine's Most Controversial Quotes|url=http://noisecreep.com/dave-mustaine-quotes/|website=[[Noisecreep]]|date=April 5, 2012|access-date=November 21, 2013|archive-date=February 13, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200213110231/https://noisecreep.com/dave-mustaine-quotes/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Hartmann|first=Graham|title=Metallica vs. Dave Mustaine&nbsp;– Nastiest Rock Feuds|url=http://loudwire.com/metallica-vs-dave-mustaine-nastiest-rock-feuds/|work=[[Loudwire]]|date=August 31, 2012|access-date=November 21, 2013|archive-date=February 13, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200213110227/https://loudwire.com/metallica-vs-dave-mustaine-nastiest-rock-feuds/|url-status=live}}</ref> By the late 1980s, it was believed that the feud had largely subsided;
