I know this is an old comment, but I will answer anyway. It sounds so sinister because in many parts of this song, the most notorius one in this riff, they use some notes that are literally called "the devil in music" (it was kind of prohibited sound in medieval times by the church), it's hard to explain if you don't know about music theory but let's say that if you play them it sounds like that, *evil*
You can totally hear the lower mids in Dave’s tone during the rhythm parts. Doesn’t sound like high gain it’s more like boosted mids from a preamp or a eq unit
I always liked Megadeth but I had never really listened to much of them at all. So after hearing Hangar 18 I decided I'd give the rest of the album a listen. The riff at 3:23 was the very riff where I thought something on the lines of; I. Fucking. *LOVE.* MEGADETH.
Dave Mustaine in 1990 asking himself while composing the musics for this album: How many different kinds of metal guitar riffs should i use in this album? Dave Mustaine: Yes
@@assgoblin0764 This seems pretty close... The left and right tracks definetely sound like they came from the same guitar while the faint center track sounds quite different.
4:56 dammit I cannot find an isolated guitar track without the solo. The solo kicks ass but that riff in the background is so fucking killer. That riff is cannot be left out!!!
2:10
2:49 to 4:04 possibly the greatest 75 seconds in metal history... 5/8 Magic!
Every goddamn riff in this song is amazing
Mustaine and Friedman were insane
Were….they still are!
@@The_Last_Ninja he means together. they arent together anymore
Why do you think dave tried to reunite the 'rust' lineup on a couple of occasions?
4:44 probably my favorite metal riff. It's just so aggressive, perfect stuff
4:44 Absolutely insane fuck how could he write such an evil sounding riff like that fuck this is pure craziness
@Daniel Carney they play it till the end of the song though.

@@eljejes9097 you must be talking about tritones and the devil’s note. The church banned that interval for centuries
Yessss probably my favorite metal riff, that power chord in the middle sounds so fucking aggressive
@@eljejes9097 That never happened and has been an urban myth pretty much. Refer to Adam Neely's video about the topic
This album, 30 years later, is probably the greatest contribution to thrash metal. Incredibly special
4:04... o shiiiiiiiit this riff is amazing
The best Dave's solo in my opinion.
@Shockheadd45 The solo on My Last Words is different than the rest. Also Lucretia.
Tbh, it sounds like it's played on a flute
my last words and five magis, best solos of megadeth
Looking Down The Cross!
Tornado of souls is best
Gabriel Pires too many awesome megadeth solos to label a single one the best
Polaris, bad Omen and hangar 18
Lucretia
2:48
What a weird fucking riff lol

the galloping sounds seriously incredible here. oh ya, one of the best dave solos. sooo clear here
Monster spider cords.

It’s a great realization, that one. Happened to me years ago listening to this very song.
For me it was take no prisoners
Sounds like d.r.i. thrash zone right there
my Megadeth awakening was to the solo in tornado of souls tbh
GIVE ME POLYGAMY!
4:45 till the end makes me cry tears of LOVE 😭❤️
This this Trash Metal
omg this tone is incredible
LET THE CEREMONY CONSECRATE THIS MARRIAGE, LET ME BE THE PROTEGE OF ONE MAGICK!
GIVE ME MEGADETH
3:24 reminds me of leper messiah
1:01 to 1:15 just doesn't sound right without the evil sounding bassline that accompanys the riff
thanks dude, really helped me with the solos
4:45 бля...
Нет слов, одно восхищение...
Dave Mustaine in 1990 asking himself while composing the musics for this album: How many different kinds of metal guitar riffs should i use in this album?
Dave Mustaine: Yes
Thanks somuch for sharing. This whole album is glorious
Insane gallops!!!!
This is beautiful
4:03 QUE PODEROSO MALDITA SEAAAAAAA
esa parte siempre me provoca un headbang que en el tren pensarán que tengo esquizofrenia
Fucking masterpiece
Damn, there is no So far, so good, so what (album)! guitar only??
It does help, thanks a lot!
This sounds almost half empty without Ellefson's bass line
This song just can’t begin with the guitars holding that E power chord and Ellefson playing that killer bass riff
[4:45|4:55]
Go so f*cking hard.
2:04
im trying to understand, is this album has 3 rythem parts : left, right and center?!
It's all over the place and so chaotic that it just makes perfect sense! At least to me! MEGADETH RULES!!!🤘🤘🤘
Yes, I believe 2 Mustaine tracks (left and right) and then center Friedman
i read once that it was 6, 2 on the left, 2 on the center and 2 on the right
I've been wondering the same thing

Megadeth w/o Marty is just meh-gadeth 😢
