Shawn Drover, the longest-serving drummer for thrash metal band Megadeth, was born in Montreal, Canada. Prior to Megadeth, Drover founded the power metal band Eidolon with his brother, Glen Drover. Drover joined Megadeth in 2004, replacing Nick Menza, and left in 2014 to pursue his own musical interests. Guitarist Chris Broderick also left at that time, and together the two formed the metal supergroup Act Of Defiance, which is still active.
