Feel free to correct me on any of this if I’m wrong
Oh, and great guitar playing, I really like how you tried to fit in a bunch of underrated songs from all these different Megadeth albums
This series is criminally underrated
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Cheers mate \m/
Hell yeahhh ! Thanks dude ! If you add the time like this you can klick on it 0:04 , 0:41 🤘😎
TheSuffocater That sounded like a good idea, so I added them, but for some reason, every time you edit a pinned comment on UA-cam, it just automatically un-pins the comment, so you might want to pin it again

Dave is a master of riffs, but the most insane part that everyone seems to forget is that he plays most of these amazing riffs WHILE SINGING!
But his vocals still suck! no power whatsoever.
@@DivinityHealings Sometimes he puts them to good use (Sweating Bullets, Peace Sells, a Tout le Monde)...and then there's Tornado of Souls....
the master of riffs is james hetfield..dave is the master in terms of technical precision
Dave is one of the greatest riffs creators in metal, along with the god Tony Iommi
@@Liviopedata maybe once, many many years ago, you could affirm that. I don't agree that James was a better riff composer than Dave back then, but at least from the '81 to the '91 Metallica came up with really great metal riffs. Now, more than thirty years after that, Dave still keeps making the best riffs, while Metallica lives on the memory of the five first albums (and in two of them, some of the best riffs are from Dave also)
I remember to listen Scott Ian to say in the Documentary Get Thrashed: "Without Mustaine there is not Metallica and without Mustaine may be there is not Thrash Metal".
Everybody must be agree that Scott is an authorized voice to be able to affirm this.
Pioneer of Thrash Metal, all that music He wrote on Kill'em all, was kicked out from Metallica, after created Megadeth and all those sick riffs we know, he almost die for an overdose(Or he did), suffered severe nerve damage of his hand, appeared in Duck Dodgers episode, he has his own beer, Black belt Taekwondo, was diagnosed with cancer... He is a legend!
All these things and you guys that studied music in the University dare to question him?
I don't know if he is the best but when he dies, he will drink champagne in the same table with Hendricks, Lennon, Morrison, Mozart, and all greatest musician all time.
Too bad he shit his music with his voice. Totally awful to hear.
@@TheSoundtrackChanneI he should've had a proper singer in the countdown to extinction, as it was meant to be a mainstream album just like metallica's black album. That's why he stayed as an underdog and never became as big as metallica. His ego prevents him to perceive his voice as it is, an ugly screech. Even if you like his voice you must admit that it is an acquired taste and it isn't a mainstream capable voice
I love Dave's voice, heathens!
SuperBeast the fuck you talking about? most of us love dave’s voice. talent wise he’d run circles around anything you’d ever do.
@@TheSoundtrackChanneI the fact that his voice is so different drew me to megadeth even more. I find very very few thrash singers can have that much of a fuck you attitude in their voice. Maybe Bobby Blitz. But everyone else either doesn't have the attitude or focuses solely on sounding good which don't get me wrong is great but it is nice to hear the other extreme every now and then
Rust in Peace will never be topped as a thrash guitar album.
Check out debatedestroy they battle rip vs ride the lightning
check out peace sells
That lineup from Rust in Peace to Risk was by far their most skilled and creative lineup.
Top 3 album all time imo.
@Axe of Deth I place Friedman in front of Broderick for sure. Maybe Broderick has better technical skill but he plays like a robot with no soul unlike Marty.
Tornado of souls one of the best metal solos ever put to tape , who’s with me !!!👍
All in
Even though it's played out and long, I still enjoy Hanger 18 from both a guitar and story telling aspect. It's always been one of my favorites.
Rust in peace is just 1 giant song to me hah, but yeah such a great solo!
Yeah Friedman is a monster, by even the main riff is ridiculous in that song
You are so damn right. But the entire song is a masterpiece. Don't forget the lyrics. 🤘
Mustaine is so beyond words. His guitar playing is the most powerful and his song writing takes his playing even higher. Thanks Dave for everything. Your the best ever
And his singing also! Ain't nothing like the way he delivers!
@@AliceDamnation even wit his voice failing its still powerful. Waiting to see him in concert again soon.
I got to see him twice live so I'm happy, including when they went on The Big Four in Yankee Stadium. My son was in his mom's womb so he technically was there too. 🤘🏻
This just shows how advanced Dave was in comparison with his contemporaries.
Still think exodus has better riffs and kreator too
It‘s crazy how simple everything else looks compared to the riffs Dave was writing at the time. Not that there haven’t been bands that wrote much more complex stuff, but none of them managed to go mainstream like Megadeth.
@@BaldyMacbeard You mean simple like "Symphony of destruction" or "Angry again"? Megadeth has several examples of easy and simple riffs to please a soft nerdy new metal audience.
STPRODfinixi-On “a soft nerdy new metal audience” haha. Man who cares who it was written to please, they’re good songs regardless
@@CharlieS76 sure. But they also have a shit ton of epic hard to play riffs they smuggled on all the records. For every tout le monde there's a poison was the cure...
Dave and Chuck from Death are both like Jimmy Page when it comes to creating riffs.
Simply the best.
Id include Joel from Killswitch in that list myself.
Literally my 3 favorite guitarists ever
There is so much emotion, sorrow, pain, anger in those riffs from Mustaine. He has this incredible ability to use the guitar as a singer uses his voices. Mustaine is unique in the way he creates music.
Actually there is a lot of hooks in Mustaines music, it is almost pop to some degree, obviously not pop, but his riffs are not just riffs, they are entire songs.. He is probably the best metal songwriter of all time...
Mustaine did for Metal what The Beatles did to pop music. Just a complete game changer. Theres a Michael Jordan quote where he once said " I never compete against others; I can only compete against my best!". I think Daves song writing fits that statement too.
Mustaine was the Lennon of Thrash.
@@thomasclement9368 Is**
My friend I love Mustaine,he is Great but we All know he competed against Metallica not to him self!He said it,faster and heavier than Metallica!I m glad he left Metallica cause if not Megadeath would not exist!🤟🇵🇹
As a metallica fan i must say a lot megadeth's riffs is more 'creative' compared to metallicas
They deffinitely are!
exactly, german metal is the opposite
Maybe, maybe not. But, definitely not better!
Agreed! Had he gotten the infamous warning and second chance and we'd gotten Mustaine and Burton's music with Hetfeild's lyrics Metallica would've undeniably been the best metal band ever
as a megadeth fan i can say everything about them is
Dave Mustaine is the ultimate riff generating machine. His riffs always had that extra detail that most others neglected. And the fact that he sang while playing a lot of these complex riffs is amazing.
Mustaine had the hardest, cleanest riffs in all of the genre.... period...!
🤘🤘🤘
Agree with you on that one.
But the best riffs in Thrash were by Slayer (especially Jeff Hanneman).
There will never be strong riffs like Angel of Death bridge riff, Seasons in the Abyss main riff and generally any Slayer riff
Period
Heavier goes to sod
@@SLAYER.APO.VOLO. no
I didn't realize James May was a thrash head
Hahah so many people won’t get it..
Yeah Captain Slow!!!
best comment ever
I thank he was a pianist😂😂
I was just thinking the same thing 😂 You beat me to it!!
Love him or hate him, Dave is the absolute riff machine! Respect \m/
love em
Dave usually have like 10 different riffs in just one song , it’s just insane
Remember buying Overkill on vinyl. Miss the excitement of record stores in the 80s
The 80s, Metal reigned supreme! Miss those days.
I broke our family turntable 10+ times playing the end of Feel The Fire backwards.
Today, vinyl sales is higher than CD
Angry Again is soo cool, Mustaine is a Beast, Realy unique
And if you're into exercising, it's a great song to do your pushups to 🤘😎🤘
Dave for thrash metal like Chuck for death metal. The God
but...Chuck always said they were a heavy metal band and didn't like the term "death metal" being associated with hm or Death...
Dave and Chuck are gods.
Playing, singing, writting.
They are complete.
@@themastema1189 yeah but they still are progressive/melodic death metal, damn
One of my favourite riffs of Megadeth is a recent era song, This Day We Fight. The whole song is rifftastic
Man, Megadeth for me have always been several cuts above the rest tbh. Mustaine's riffing is so iconic and out of the ordinary for the genre and those close to it.
@Skip Bayless You sound like a classic hater who has no idea what the fuck they are talking about and decides to just throw out another big name to derail the whole topic.
@Skip Bayless both are good in their own right man. As a person who grew up on megadeth then found pantera when they came out. Dime and Dave have the riffs that you can just headbang to. They both have groove to their sound.
@Skip Bayless ok I'll agree with you on some of the lyrics and singing of Dave You got me. But let's talk about hanger 18, 99 ways to die, rust in peace.... Polaris, holy wars the punishment due, tornado of souls, symphony of destruction. Dave made all of the music for the songs and you can hear it in the lack of good drumming. Pantera was a full band man. That's what makes pantera, cemetary gates, revolution is my name, walk, 5 minutes alone, becoming, this love. These bands are are both great. In their own rights. Metal is metal man. Just as long as you headbang on
@Skip Bayless I didnt read this until after I commented on the previous statement. Dave was an asshole and that's why Metallica got rid of him. Hes a hot head but writes dam good music. There is a reason, anthrax, Metallica, slayer and megadeth are the BIG 4 in metal.
@Skip Bayless agree to disagree. Headbang on my friend 🤘
Another very important thing with Megadeth's music is the aggressiveness and complexity that drummers like Gars Samuelson and Nick Menza brought to Dave's riffs. compare their drums beats with their contemporaries, and they were very ahead of them in that regard too.
R I P Nick
Nick yes...Gar um no.
Rest In Peace to them both
@@warrengauthier4699 I beg to differ sir. First Gar set the standard. Second the production on those albums didn't do him justice. Theres a channel that isolated the bass and drums on Peace Sells album and it's insane.
Exactly. Those two guys's drums made Megadeth sound something unique and special. Metal is not just about composing good songs.
This just proves that Dave is literally the catalyst and patient zero of what thrash metal is. Dave looked at NWOBHM, Punk, and old school heavy metal, said lets combine them, and out came thrash metal. Dude is a literal musical genius, and honestly I feel that Megadeth should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and not Metallica.
But Metallica made more Money..and sold Millions more records ..so that's all that matters to that HOF...
to be fair metallica still made master riffs and still should be've been inducted, but regardless, both bands are top tier
@@gennaro4941I remember seeing a comment on another vid and it said “Metallica may have won the charts, but megadeth won the hearts”
Well... yes and no. The idea of mixing metal and punk is from Motörhead at first, then from Trust and Iron Maiden for example, and only after them from Exdodus and Metallica etc.
And especially when it comes to Metallica, people need to remember they weren't the first band, even in their scene or at the shows they first started playing at... they just were the first to land a record deal. It was a totally new sub-genre so producers really didn't trust it. A lot of the other early thrash bands were already playing just like Metallica, they just didn't have the money to fund their own records.
Megadeth came along fairly late and Dave's real impact is seen on the first three Metallica albums, when it comes to the scene as a whole.
And a lot of his Megadeth riffs were inspired by other bands who already had stuff out by then, like Venom, Slayer or even Bathory, if you know what to listen for...
He perfected speed and thrash, but he didn't invent it, nor did everybody constantly look to his riffs for inspiration.
@@gennaro4941They write catchy hooks and like to make their melodies safe so they would be accepted by a larger audience. Dave's more interested in producing top notch thrash that is more technical and suited to a smaller audience so that's why Metallica is "more popular". While I like the direction Metallica took in 2008 towards thrash again, I didn't discover it until not too long ago because I felt St. Anger sucked and I had given up.
Now I heard Metallica's last three thrash albums and I do like them. However, I cannot help but feel as if they are relaxing towards a commercial sound again
For me Dave is the best metal songwriter of all-time. His riffs are just crazy tasty
Could be. Chuck from Death is the other chosen one
@Skip Bayless Dime is great, but he didn't write all Pantera's music
@Skip Bayless Mustaine is Megadeth over 30 years, Pantera and Darrell were great but exist only...10? I don't forget the first 3 albums of Pantera and I remember the first 3 of Metallica that has been with the help of Mustaine.
And like is say before, Chuck Schuldiner was other ginius, he is dead too and even the last of his work he made it with cancer
@@megarichard5738 That's not true, Kill 'Em All has credits in these songs:
The Four Horsemen
Jump In The Fire
Metal Militia
Phantom Lord
And then in Ride The Lightning he has a credit in Ride The Lightning (song) and The Call Of Ktulu.
Dave has no involvement at all in Master Of Puppets, however there's a rumor that says that he wrote a riff in Leper Messiah, but this remains unconfirmed.
Megadeth= NEVER loosing the melody in heavy riffing. All the others...well...
He keeps the melody TIGHT, that's why. See what I did there? ;)
Pantera???
@@stylekbender2650 yeah dime could write that shit too
@@stylekbender2650what? pantera is pure thrash metal?😂😂
I love that you included Nuclear Assault in this one. Handle With Care is a criminally underrated album.
Danny Lilker is an incredible musician
I'd say that Something Wicked is the criminally underrated.
Handle with care is awesome!!!
This guy has remastered the album a couple of months back and it sounds insane, can hear everything so clearly but still sounds very thrash ua-cam.com/video/w4KqBxbaTAs/v-deo.html
So is overkill the years of decay
Would love to see dave vs chuck shuldiner. That would be an epic riff battle
Me too
Pls
Yep
Dave is the master. Even Slash in his book called Dave the most pure song writer ever
There is an early Metallica-era Mustaine riff that sounds like Paradise city, way before Paradise city
Well slash isn't a super reference lol
Miguel Angel Nuñez Ochoa you of course know he was a possible lead for megadeth back in the day?
@@TrondBie yes I know :)
@@TrondBie Possible lead? Actually They talked about Slash joining the band when Dave was starting up Megadeth. Slash says that he and Dave were doing a lot of coke and there was no way Dave would've seriously considered him for the group. Evident in how Dave wouldn't bring it up off coke. Dave is way to technical and Slash is pretty much all bar chords and minor pentatonic scales when it comes to soloing.
Dave mustaine is clearly the winner, hands down, he’s just a badass!
I'm so glad someone finnally put Rattlehead instead of other songs on KIMB, you got yourself a sub mate!
Thanks mate ! Welcome !
others are equally good imo
I'm so glad you played some KIMB riffs. I love that record!
The intro to looking down the cross gives me chills everytime I listen to it
You played peace sells, I’m listening on headphones next to my sleeping wife who woke up as I sang “if there’s a new way...” 🤨 thanks now I’m in the doghouse.
Mustaines style is like running a marathon, but his rhythms are so killer!
Dave mustaine is one of the most underrated guitarist of all time.
In a way I disagree but in another I gotta agree...calling dave mustaine the greatest rock/metal composer would still be an understatement.
@@themastema1189 Steve harris has entered the chat
@@loganst.marseille1061 He's also great no doubt but I'd still prefer dear ol' Dave over Harris.
Lol no
He sure as hell is!
Imma be honest a lot of these riffs sound generic compared to Megadeth , Mustaine is provably the most articulated guitarists of 80's and 90's thrash he truly speaks with the guitar , the only other thrash guitarists that I know he could that was 80's Andreas Kisser.
I agree 🤘
@@unacceptablekrazykanuck8470
So do I. I agree. I like the energy of Mustaine's licks. Hammet's are good, but not as energetic as Daves. I think Mustaine was the better part of Metallica that got away.
Vince Rob, but Megadeth may not be without departure 🤟
@@unacceptablekrazykanuck8470
I don't know what that is supposed to mean, sir. Is Megadeth departing somewhere? Dave says a new album is coming, so they don't seem to be going anywhere except to do what they do best.
No no, just if he had never left or been ousted from Metallica, the outcome or forming of Megadeth may never of happened.
Hopefully that clears it up. Cheers and peace.
Well one of the things you gotta remember is not only was Dave a song writer from his earliest days, but he was a LEAD guitarist turned Rhythm, so he was still writing for LEAD and then slapped an even crazier and more complex LEAD over his own, thus gave birth to an evolution! But once Dave heard 1989's Alison Hell by Annihilator, Rust in Peace was created and the game has been forever stepped up, that was where it went from just your good crunchy rough chugs and fast lick lash solos to full on masterpiece power and Classical Orchestral Face melters. Interesting Note to think about! Jeff Waters, the guitarist and song writer for Annihilator was actually called up by Dave to be Megadeth's Lead Guitarist before Marty got the job, think about that! Jeff was an inferno at the time, young and UBER talented. We might have seen a completely different Megadeth sound push through with him, but he turned the job down due to his hope with his own band's success coming through, Chuck Billy from Testament was the one that handed Jeff the phone and Jeff didn't even believe it was Dave on the other end at first, makes me laugh that he could have almost made an enemy and told him off.
Every time I hear Dave’s riffs I go into a hypnotic trance. the world stops and every fiber of my mental and physical existence clings to every note , every chord, every lyric, of every song. When the song ends I feel so empty because there is no more , and so full because there was so much ! To put it in his own words “when the steam finally disipates, I make out my sweaty face “. Rock on Dave you are the master !!!
Ditto! Good to know I'm not the only person who holds Dave's songwriting with reverence, and appreciation to point of being hypnotized and totally unable to resist turning the volume up when possible.
Glad to see that you included Nuclear Assault...such an underrated part of the late 80s thrash scene.
Dang, had to edit to add bonus points for the Sacred Reich and SOD...
American Big 4 vs German Big 4.
Is incredible the quality and the power of the 80/90's riffs in thrash metal. Best years that will never come back.
Mustaine is one of my favorite guitarrist of all time, its impressive how accurate is your sound in a lot of songs! You earnead a sub :)
The funny thing on 4:28 is that the riff sounds a lot like Megadeth's In My Darkest Hour
Also Mary Jane from the same Album. Same rhythmic structure different tempo.
I've never realised that. But there are similarities between them.
Yeah. But which came first?
Duuuuuude, I was thinking that same thing, 15 seconds later I was reading your comment
@@kapils2862 SFSGSW
Dave's riffs are some of my favorites ever. Dimebag, hetfield, Friedman and the others are all the GOATS but Mustaine is my personal favorite. I love his style, amazing interesting riffs but also ballzy solos. Wake up dead, holy wars, conjuring. Such good juicy riffs
For some reason, I believe Megadeth composed the most metal masterpieces among all the bands. In terms of consistency, they surpass the other bands, probably even Metallica. Ashes in Your Mouth is my favorite song from them.
"DAVE MUSTAINE WROTE 'EM ALL"
Dave Mustaine: finally a worthy opponent(s).
Dave Mustaine 5 mins later : Then again....maybe not
Kreator and Nuclear Assault.....now we’re talking
When you isolate some of the dissonant Mustaine strumming patterns and his minor based arpegiated chords you can tell where so many Black Metal bands got their influence . Especially the Swedish Norwegian BM bands . Btw once again your playing is ultra clean . Really polished . That's not flattery because I've had many guitarist with all my past bands so its easy to tell whom plays naturally .
Dave Mustaine fought throat cancer and he won the battle beating the cancer and returning to Megadeth while giving the fans the good news. That basically is one of the few true reasons I have heard lots of Megadeth music and even becoming a fan of the band. Definitely my favorite metal band from last year. My current favorite metal band is still Dragonforce (Power Metal) but Megadeth (Thrash Metal) really clicked for me last year like a light switch being turned on. Also I love how other bands you playing the guitar riffs on each thrash metal band are wearing a Megadeth shirt to give respect as well.
Dude, for me the best battle so far. I love Dave Mustain and Megadeth. For me he is the master of making riff's heavys, along with Jeff Waters from annihilator !!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🎸🎸🎸
Thanks mate !
Sorry but I'd say Dave and Jeff Hanneman
of course jeff hanneman or Kerry King are very good riff's songwriters. But when I refer to Jeff Waters I mean that still not dating in this battle, for me the style of Waters is great !!!
Anihilator is a grear band, they have so many good songs i feel that they are better than most of the mainstream trash bands
Those are some pretty good riffs against Dave’s but Dave’s riffs are just top notch
I remember when I was 17 yr old as a beginning guitar player in 1989, March of the SOD was my first song ever to learn to play on a guitar. Too bad For Whom the Bell Tolls is not on the list because it was my second.
Long live 80's Metal!! 🤘😈🤘
Curious how the other bands sound quite generic compared to Mustaine's riffs
This shows how amazing Mustaine really is!
So perfect you got Dave playing the sick Jackson-V...
& Ended on the S.O.D.!!
Hell yeahhh !
Nothing better than a tight thrash groove. Awesome video!
Thank you for an awesome video. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Great to see that some one listens to the entire catalogue of multiple thrash metal bands not just the stock "hits". Great job.
Makes you want to listen to Megadeth immediately again. I recently listened to the Risk album. It's actually not bad at all.
If it was under a sideproject band name it would have been a decent rock album.
I honestly like Risk. I think it's a great album for what it is. As odd as it may be, I actually prefer risk over Super Collider.
Cryptic Writings and Risk are my favorite Megadeth albums. I love thrash but after a while it gets old. I'm always coming back for these two tho.
@@umrasangus cryptic writings is a fantastic album. Almost never talked about.
Wasn't Cryptic writings also super successful?
I agree with the previous comments on how advanced Dave Mustaine is compared to most of his peers both technically and melodically. Great to hear and see other trash classics though, great vid...
When I saw, S. O. D. I was taken aback and so nicely surprised... Awesome playing, awesome choice and of course, great video!
Amazing selection of riffs, excellent video !!
Love Thrash Metal bands, Violence, Metallica (early), Exodus, Testament etc. BUT...Dave has written some of the tastiest riffs of all times, and the first 5 albums have at least 3-4 gems of riffs in each song....He is the Godfather of Thrash no matter what.
Can you please do Adrian Smith and Dave Murray versus Glenn Tipton and KK Downing??
That'd be excellent
That would be fantastic
Up
YES...YES....YES
Yes, please! I'd like a battle between Venom/Mercyful Fate/Bathory, too. :)
Great video, and fantastic playing! I really enjoyed the comparison and sampling across so many bands.
Now if you'll excuse me i'm off to listen to some Overkill and Testament.
Dude, this was so entertaining! If you’re ever in Denver we need to grab a beer 🤘
By far my favorite YT musician.
You manage to perfectly replicate a ton of killer tones and difficult riffs, and I love the video format.
Kudos to you! Also love those guitars, gotta bust out that camo one more often.
Thanks a lot , glad you like it !
Fantastic job mate! Dave Mustaine is seriously in a league of his own...
what a great vid! lml
one thing i'd like to mention that everyone would already know of is that not only Dave's amazing on riff-making, but he's also a super talented arranger, album like rust in peace or youthanasia clearly proves it.
P.S. thanks so much for including "angry gain"
Wish I could play like that! Incredible video man! Keep on rockin'!
Dave is a god!
Dave mustaine es un genio para crear riffs. Muy adelantado a su epoca.Los discos mas recientes de megadeth estan muy buenos.Gran batalla de riffs. Saludos bro ✌✌😎🖒
Dave Mustaine is the goat!
my fav among big 4!! and you pick the very finest selection/ riffs out there
Dave is possibly the best metal guitarist of all time. But crap there are so many great ones... But to me the best thrash metal riff ever is the middle of Wake Up Dead and the lead at the end of that song is just legendary. Love the Nuclear Assault in this video, thats a band not many give credit to.
One thing I think people do not notice about Mustaine is that many of his riffs get more complicated while he is singing when most guitar/singers riffs get less complicated.
Best metal guitarist... Dimebag. He was just such a natural and could play any style of music and have those styles incorporated into a metal song.
Nate Gin Dimebag is one of the GOATs, but if we talking about versatility, Mustaine wins that category. Pantera what they only really did was just getting heavier and heavier and not really adding that much variety in their sound. Not saying it as a bad thing tho, they still did killer albums. Mustaine revolutionized metal and thrash in particular. IMO after Iommi, Mustaine is the most influential guitarist in metal, Chuck Schuldiner comes after him for me.
I love Dave Mustaine and Megadeth but for me Alex Skolnick from Testament is the best metal guitarist
@Dmetal#1 yeah jeff waters is the best is amazing
I hope you all talking about classic heavy metal, and not metal in general...
Also, dimebag? Is that a fucking joke right?
Mustaine is truly a musical genius and there is no question to it!
Thank you for this video. There’s a lot of bands I never heard of before here and they all had badass riffs ima go check em out.
Nothing better than a good guitar riffs to start the day. Cheers from El Salvador!
Aww man Dave is a killer, bummed I am gonna miss him on tour this year, but this video is great, keep up the awesome work!
Lamb of god and five finger death punch :(
I really hope that their performance in Kansas City won’t get cancelled due to this covid bs
I have to say, I think Mikes riffs from Destruction deserve their own special treatment from you.
I fucking love Thrash. You just helped me discover some artists I initially overlooked (Destruction and Kreator). Thank you for these videos, and keep thrashing!
Destruction and Kreator are both amazing
Man, you ve given me so many suggestions what album to listen to next ;)
Next one: Mille Petrozza vs everyone
You are doing great job.
а кто это
Thanks mate ! Kreator is hard to play !
@@TheSuffocater You can do it!
@@TheSuffocater specially extreme aggression because there is fast riffs but pretty technical at the same time.

Megadave!
I love that you included Near Dark, that album is incredible. It would have been fun to hear other riffs off Oppressing the Masses, Beneath the Remains, Victims of Desception, Time does not Heal, Forbidden Evil, or And Justice for All, a lit of great riffs there.
When placed side by side: the champion is especially clear!
This is a fair fight but just because you didn’t even include some of Mustaine’s best riffs: Good Mourning/Black Friday, The Conjuring (you know exactly which particular riff I’m taking about), Last Words, Poison was the cure, Five Magics, Polaris, Killing is my business, Last Rites, Set the world afire, Mary Jane (underrated riff fest song), Washington is next, Sleepwalker, Head Crusher, just to mention a few, and you added some pretty simple songs like Trust, Angry Again, etc (great songs nonetheless). Great video regardless👍🏻
That Good Mourning/Black Friday riff is so great! I got goosebumps every time I hear it!
Yeah, Peace Sells was my introduction to MEGADETH as well. Everytime I hear that album it just takes me back to those days 🤘😎🤘
Boy oh boy we know which riff in the conjuring, don't forget the disintegrators from cryptic writings, I always thought that song was incredibly thrasher!
Good stuff, the hardest stuff Dave has done since Rust In Peace (technical wise) was on United Abominations. I never thought much about it until I listened to the whole album again the other night. Kick the Chair though was the closest sounding and best riff since the 80's though!
But "kick the chair" is from "the system has failed"
@@dantredogborsa7048 I know, still a kick ass song, I just remembered it when typing about United Abominations. lol
@@drummer7557 Kick ass song!
I love Sleepwalker in particular.
Yeah I never appreciated the guitar work (complexity) of that album (United Abominations) until recently. And I've heard it for 13 years!! lol
Once more, great collection of awesome, timeless riffs :) Somehow you always manage to make sound even more powerful and fresh than on the original recordings. Keep up this great series and keep on rocking!
Flawless riffing dude. Nicely put together
Yes the twins are back!
Amazing work! So many great tracks in a 13 min segment. 👌🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Loved this vid had me moist the whole time great work bro
Dude, it sounds just amazing, the reverb on your guitar playing is absolutely mindblowing! I'm a new subscriber already.
Thanks ! Welcome to my channel !!
Clearly Dave Mustaine is the riff master. Second only to Tony Iommi.
Yeah, you’re correct
Yes sir
This is some really quality quarantine content.
I congratulate you, enjoy this video, spectacular riff, it is 2:40 am in Chile on Tuesday, and it gave me a thirst for beer .... see more videos like this, take my powerful LIKE
You’ve done a great job, awesome song selection too! You couldn’t quite keep up with Holy Wars, but that speaks more to the difficulty of the song and the amazing speed and technical execution of Dave!
Great job! Love how guitarist from All enjoys Mustaine riffs.) By the way some riffs from Kreator's 'Endorama' reminds me Megadeth.
Endorama is like risk.
Wierd 90s stuff, but still a good listen.
Dave Mustaine is Legendary!
I have not heard SURF NICARAGUA in years bro! Amazing
When you listen side by side, it really becomes apparent how brilliant Dave is, and these other songs are all epic.
