      Most aggressive vocalist in metal that I met were nicer to me and,
      kinder than mine own parents , lord worm, Jacob Bannon, corpse grinder, Chris Barnes is very well spoken , Glen Benton , Matti way. I listen to them and I met them in shows they were extremely nice and kind. Even in numetal The late Wayne from static x was so nice I met him in 2010 nicest guy around and Corey Taylor was pretty funny I met him at ozzfest. Nicest people

    For us Megadeth fans, for years the only good documentary we had on Megadeth was the Behind The Music segment. This picks up their story in far greater detail and really helps us understand both Dave and the band a lot better. Fantastic job Gibson!

      I think this video really completes the Behind the Music doc. It focuses on other aspects, well of course Dave is older and has a slight different view on things now, but there's more regarding the private and human aspect of him in this video than in Behind the Music.

      I love both the bands. Way I see it is that as far as left hand is concerned, Megadeth is more technical and Marty's solos are on another level of existence, however as far as right hand and downpicking is concerned Metallica is the undisputed. That's the why I think MoP is way more heavy than RIP.

      Megadeth was the first band I ever got into back in early 1999. Metallica I got into second. I love both bands, but people are delusional if they think Metallica is technically superior in any way. Mustaine's songwriting alone crushes them and will continue to do so. I'm glad he's finally at peace with the whole thing compared to 20 years ago. cheers dudes.

He kept going, and whether you like Him or hate him, you have to respect him. He's been the bad guy when he needs to be and the good guy when he needs to be. He's not just a metal legend. He's an inspiration as a person.

    Most people would just fade away after been ousted from a band like Metallica. But Dave Mustaine is not just another musician. By sheer willpower and mental strenght Dave was able to form a band to rival and to some be even better than his former band. Dave Mustaine is a King among men.

    • @ThePhilosophersYawn
      @ThePhilosophersYawn 2 роки тому +32

      @@henrywalton5967 Heard 3 live songs out of curiosity. No. No complexity while he is singing. Also not actually singing like Mustaine does (or at least tries to). Mustaine sings on top of complex time signatures without his voice just following/flowing with the guitar but keeping its own time signature or pace. Its very very hard to make your brain work with 2 different time signatures at the same time especially when you add technical complexity to the mix. Not impossible of course, there are street musicians who can play 3 instruments at the same time. But it is very rare.
      DiSanto plays basic fast riffs (actually easier to sing along) and follows the guitar pace with his voice.
      Similar to what Mille Petrozza of Kreator does... but even then Petrozza plays some more complex riffs while he sings.
      No. No-one (in metal) is even close to the level of Mustaine.
