After some time off in rehab for the band and another line-up change, Megadeth returned with ''Rust in Peace'' in 1990, a progressive effort which contained the famous songs "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" and "Hangar 18." They remained silent for two years, after which they pulled a FollowTheLeader and released ''Countdown to Extinction'', an album full of slower, less thrashy, straightforward {{heavy metal}} songs modeled after ''Metallica''. It was their greatest commercial success, reaching #2 on the US charts and selling in excess of 2 million copies, propelled by the singles "Symphony of Destruction," "Foreclosure of a Dream," and "Sweating Bullets." The simplification continued on 1994's ''Youthanasia'', attracting [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks some condemnation from older fans]] but overall being received just as well as its predecessor, going to #4 on the charts and spawning the hits "Train of Consequences" and "A Tout le Monde," with Creator/{{MTV}} banning the latter's video for supposedly being "pro-suicide."

** Dave's also on bad terms with Marty Friedman, having insulted his playing ability as well has Friedman's projects after his move to Japan...not that Marty seems all that bothered. Tensions seem to have subsided between the two as of 2023, when Marty made several guest appearances with Megadeth.
