Illustrator Brent Elliott White has filed a lawsuit against heavy metal band Megadeth and Universal Music Group for allegedly not paying or crediting him for creating the artwork for their latest album, “The Sick, The Dying… And The Dead!”. White claims that he was not properly compensated for his work and that his artwork was released and credited to someone else. He is seeking an injunction, damages, and profits for copyright infringement.

  1. I hope Dave doesnt do Kiko like Gene and Paul did Bruce Kullick after the unplugged show. Dave would screw up big time as his current line up is the best he's had since the Marty years.

  2. Obviously, Mustaine, at this point is not handling this kind of shit, with artists and what not. Managers are paid for a reason. But I always find it quite hilarious, when Heavy/Thrash Metal bands, who are supposed to be idealistic, and write music and lyrics criticizing the shit that goes around this rotten world of ours, end up becoming what they bash in their songs lol.

  3. As if Megadeth doesn’t have the cash to pay for this ..this guy should be honoured that he draws art work for Megadeth..perhaps he should go back to his cartoons..making a wage that will cover the costs of his Kraft dinner..

  4. At 48,000 albums sold the albums a bomb. My guess the artist won't be getting his money or the record label for that matter. Let me guess not Dave's fault as usual.

  5. Artist is in his right. This happens too often. Gonna be a hefty bill now…
    You would think Universal would have their shit together..

  6. If Corey Taylor was getting sued you would be there rubbing his bollocks. Catching his tears in something I'm pretty sure you would be wearing around your neck. By the way have the federales found your backyard Graves

  7. LOL, how the heck did the artist allow a usable copy of his work to fall into the band's hands? Sounds like the guy needs a bit of show biz training. Then again, he just learned a big lesson.

  8. It's best to draw your own designs like Charlie Benante then no one can sue you. I know playing guitar and singing and writing songs is hard enough but if you can do that then it's more than likely you can draw and paint.

  9. Awful lot of ass kissing in the comments,”oh I’m sure it wasn’t dave” “it was probably management” “usually…….” Y’all don’t know know Dave to well apparently,it’s exactly something he’d pull lmfao

  10. Uhhh! Whats with people always needing credit? So this guy wants his name in the back of the book? I mean, sure pay the guy if he did it but credit isn't really needed. I have plenty of art that has been used. I dont need credit. Cant take credit to the grave with me. 🙄 Plus its too late. I have the album with the artwork so boo hoo!
