NEVER give a guitarist a guitar if you want to have a conversation
Most real words ever spoken
Damn right
Haha.
@matthew scoles wonder how many drummers were murdered during soundchecks, lol
why ? all they did was talk.....very little to NO playing at all.
What many people don't realize is Charlie Benante(the drummer) wrote/writes a ton of all the Anthrax songs.
Scott Ian was the lyrical guy
Many people don't know if they've never seen an interview with Scott who tells people all the time.
Super underrated as a musician in general, and a real nice and humble dude.
Big deal . Its not about who wrote the songs its about the guitar player
Charlie wrote the music, then gave it to Scott to write the lyrics.
New title: Anthrax's Scott Ian Plays Half of Two Riffs
As much as I love Scott and this video, you are correct with that comment.
You can tell the interviewer is a true fan. It’s obvious he is just so excited to be sitting in front of Scott and asking him questions he’s always wondered
So underrated it took me many years to know how great this dude is.
That’s your problem
Anthrax's Scott Ian Plays His Favorite Riffs (after the video probably)
Don't forget this, Malcolm young was the reason he knows how to play guitar..
What if I want to forget
@@krisztianberekmeri3623 lol!
@@krisztianberekmeri3623 All these guys are old now, so they'll forget right enough soon, a few years behind Glenn Campbell
I love how this guy can't stop playing his guitar even if he plays every day
This🔥
Guitar ain't just a regular instrument
ADHD in a nutshell.
I wonder who the hell are those 2 guys at the back.. 🤔
Its a mirror...idiot
@@tadutaro You didn't get it
@@tadutaro
Yeah thanks, Sherlock.
Da fuck...i almost died laughing😂
r u stupid
Scott is the most down to earth dude! God bless him!
NO the fuck he isn't, he is always obnoxious to his own fans. The most obnoxious human being you'll ever meet.
Scott plays better than most while having a full on conversation
conversation with a posie dixon
Caught his pick last night in Glasgow!
Congrats
@@matko8038 thanks admiral xx
Fullmetal Mitchell I got a James Iha pick cuz it was stuck to the back or some chick's sweaty neck.. great find. She thought she was more deserving cuz it was on her body.. pfft
I managed to get Frank Bello's bass pick.
Photo or it did'nt happen ?Lol :)
Scott Ian has always eluded me. As I start to look into his interviews and music, I realize there is a lot more to the man as a musician that I might have thought.
Me Too.
What Ian said about the mid-priced guitars 🎸 is soooo true!!! Some guitars are so overpriced and middle class kids can't afford a good guitar. That is petty badass of him if you ask me.
Even budget ones sound great with the advent of CNC machine manufacturing, as long as you don’t go bottom of the barrel. Classic Vibes are awesome, and I’ve heard a lot of good things about Harley Benton considering the price point.
Most high price guitars today are auction pieces and wall decorations
In all my years Ive never known of a working musician to be out there using top of the line, insanely priced guitars.
A lot of very famous musicians do, but those guitars are only worth so much because it's theirs...
There are a few high profile musicians who pay to replicate their famous rigs so they can bring them around to play, while the real treasure sits somewhere safe
Up until my late 20s, I literally used copy brands, even WallyMart specials and never had any issues.
My first mid priced, actual brand guitar was bought in the early 90s
The title of this video is misleading. I’m more than halfway through it, and he’s played one riff one time.
gqfiend ....It’s too late by time you figure this out
March ov S.O.D. my fave Scott riff, I love the stuff he does with Mr. Bungle too!
I read that Scott was involved with Bungle. I never really liked Mr. BUNGLE. So I check out the ... Easterbunny demo release they did with Scott. Outstanding. Total no b..s ripping it up. I love it. Next to Exodus it's the thrashiest metal I have heard in a while that is fresh and exciting.
@@saltpeter7429 hits me right with S.O.D. mixed with Saturday morning Cartoons back in the 70s. You can hear Dave Lombardo's Slayer skin soaking in too. Fuckn beautiful.
Interviewer: what was the riff that made you pick up a guitar
Scott Ian: Pfft it wasn’t even a riff it was Pete Townshend’s windmill
0:55 seconds VIDEOS OVER.
I read that comment as soon as he said that haha
Last week Ian said it was Malcom Young's playing that made him start.
@@frystanudlar6964 And next week he'll say : " It was James Hetfield's fried noodles"! Wtf
It didnt start great.with 'i didnt know it wasn't ok'
Interviewer does'nt know who Pete Townsend is...lol
S.O.D are sooooooo underrated!!!!!!!!
As soon as he said "duh duh, dd DU DUH" I instantly recognized it lol
It's March of the S.O.D. btw
Xavier Pesantes Scot Ian can talk shit about Philip H Anselmo.... but plays a song called “speak English or die?” What a fuckin’ tool!
Invest in a dictionary and look up the word "sarcasm"
to who?
That riff for "Room for One More" has always been one of my favorites.
My favourite riff by Scott Ian/Anthrax, has got to be 'Keep It In The Family' from their 'Persistence Of Time' album, iv'e seen Anthrax a few time's now, recently supporting Slayer, it's a shame they don't play that song in their set anymore.
Love that one. It's so brutal when it kicks in.
Great record
Not a massive fan but I must say he absolutely nailed that ascending chromatic scale in the beginning, it's honestly no wonder how he's such an inspirational guitarist to countless dozens after seeing him nail such an amazing feat of technicality and passion.
Honestly tear bringing content.
Thank you Loudwire.
The steamy cream of dual jabbar lol. Yeah I appreciate his contribution to metal but not impressed by the playing.
The creamy dream of dual jabbar YOU WIN THE UNIVERSE TODAY. (Bigger than the intronit.) ((internet.))
Side note: Charlie recorded the drums for Persistence of Time in 3 days. The entire album, 3 days. That man is a freak of nature.
I guess two riffs constitutes enough to fulfill the declaration of the title?
I love the look on Scott's face when he's called a living legend, seriously I don't think there's a more down-to-earth guy in rock and Metal then Scott
More down to earth guy that's still alive? Yes probably, but I think Dimebag was maybe more down to earth
Scott is not approachable....
Treats his fans like scum.
He acted like a know it all when I saw them live. Said the last time he'd been in Fargo, ND was when they toured with Volbeat a couple of years ago. The city was actually Grand Forks. When the crowd corrected him, he was like "No it was Fargo.". And when the crowd insisted, he was just like whatever. Not exactly a down-to-earth kind of guy to me.
@@mauriciohernandezdiaz9825 in it for the money....
Never been a big fan of Anthrax....but I love Scott Ian...great dude
S.O.D.. kicks effing asses, though.
First riff I practiced over and over was crazy train. My brother told me to learn that one bc it would be a great one to learn early to help my finger (mainly pinky) strength.
This fucking guy never changes. He is The Edge of heavy metal. The same exact clothes from the 80's, the same facial hair and he looks the same.
To see Scott playing some of his favorite licks, check out the video of him playing the Gretsch Malcolm Young Signature Jet guitar. It's all AC⚡DC of course, but the guitar sounds FANTASTIC and they are one of Scotty's all time favorite bands.
He just kills the Riffmeister's licks.
Scotts answer all depends on what interview hes doing. ... Gene simmons was his reason for playing in a band one time, Malcom Young was his reason for playing guitar one time , Eddie Van Halen was a reason Scott Plays guitar as well as Joe Perry. & Ted Nugent. Just depends on the day
I suppose it doesn't have to be just one person that inspired him.
Scott Ian TALKS about his favorite riffs
Scott Ian is just too cool.......he is so musically connected and down to earth......👍👍
Down to earth? HA!!!! have you ever met the douchebag?
I met a guy at a strip club in Palm Springs in 2011 who said he was a guitarist for Anthrax and had just done a show. Said he was working at Best Buy or some shit and auditioned for them and got in, idk if it was true but he was loaded and fucking hilarious
Thank you Scott for March of the SOD. It is the best riff.
Invite Andy LaRoque
Wow your profile pic renewal by kreator. Interesting.
@Joesph Nickell Alex Skolnick super underrated !
Yes, please!
Your not King!
@@rickleblanc8900 another internet idiot with the "underrated" syndrome
Definitely one of my lifetime guitar gods. So many killer riffs over the years.
Loved him on Married with Children.
Next video Jeff Waters (Annihilator) ;)
Martin R. Umm how bout not.that guy sucks from his tone to his riffs, shitty band
Yeah that dude is seriously underated and so is his band . that master of rock gig is just mindblowing . tight tight tight . the musicianship is so precise with some of the great riffs ever written .
@@ghostninja2041 Go listen to Fun Palace on the Master of rock live gig . i bet you'll get goosebumps you can't lie to yourself :D
here is the link . enjoy :D ua-cam.com/video/oboyefk8Toc/v-deo.html
@@HOLLOWOXDT1 Yes, I know at this video. Annihilator is one of my favorite bands. Masters of Rock, Hell & Heaven (2014), Rock Hard (2014), Wacken (2003, 2013, 2015) really great concerts. Jeff is a incredible musician (one of my favorite :)). But, Annihilator missing Dave Padden.
I choose these one: "play strut with scottian flying V's guitar, while Lenny drinks Dave mustaine's coffe, joined by James heatfield. And Jim Root is waching behind You trailer at his phone.
Thank YOU Mr. Squiggy!!! Keep up the good work bro!!!!
Always respect this guy because he honors rocks roots. Not a fan of his genre but I respect it and he can play old school as good as anyone.
Plays 1 riff in the video, let's call it Scott Ian plays favorite riffs
he didn't play anything
Yeah...sat around waiting to hear some metal and got...nothing.
That’s why I clicked. I wanted to hear what influenced the shit they put out. And, as I expected, nothing awesome. Talking about his own trash riffs.
Thanks for saving me time
He played 1-2-3-4 exercises at the beginning. (facepalm)
@Thrash Heap he's not very great. Nothing of value was gained
I love that Ian is still playing Jackson Guitars!
Scott, such a cool thoughtful guy - I love the ethos of affordable signature guitars too. Great interviewer and questions too.👍🤘✌️😊
He plays about 15 seconds worth of riffs and talks for 6mins and 15 seconds approximately. Perhaps you should change the title of this clip to 'Scott Ian TALKS about his favourite riffs."
He plays arround 10 seconds in a whole video,
Anthrax's Scott Ian Talk a Lot About Plays His Favorite Riffs
That dude's beard is so fucking majestic. I'm in awe. I can only grow mine out so far before it decides it's done.
Scott is a living legent!!!
Now that he's middle aged he looks like he's got a badger half swallowed. Cool guy . I always liked Anthrax
Scott Ian: The Corey Taylor of the 2000's. Always on VH1, telling people what he thinks.
😉 🤘
It was funny when he appear in things like "top 100 one hit wonders from the 80´s"... Then all the sudden he was talking his mind there
They all sell out. Remember that fucking Metallica saying that you'd never see them on MTV and blah blah blah. Come 1991 you couldn't get them off MTV. One of the reasons I can't stand Lars Ulrich. And then the whole Napster thing. All fucking sellouts
2000s? I'd say 1990s.
@@TheSamsdad25
I was a big fan of Metallica till "and...Justice for all" and i went through all "BLACK ALBUM" fans censorship everytime i said that !
Even nowadays i'm censored by those kind of shitheads everytime i say that !
About Metallica being sellouts, i had a girlfriend who had a job at a music cds store and when the "BLACK ALBUM" was released some guy went to that store and wanted to by the "First Metallica Album", so, she went to get "KILL' EM ALL " and when she gave the cd to that guy he just said "That's not Metallica's First Album ! Metallica's First Album has a black front cover !"
@@TheSamsdad25 except he was right about napster. Now bands have to make money with massive tours. The only bad thing he did was trying to go after the fans
One of my guitar idols 🎉
Seen him last Friday in Manchester, what an epic night! 4 bands 6+ hours just wow!! Lamb of god tore it down!!
Such a great music channel! :-)
Thought it was going to be as the title stated, him giving us riff after riff....this is basically one long commercial for his signature guitar. Gee, thanks so much.
March of the Storm Troopers of Death....brings me back to high school..ImI
I like his watch
...wot?
Porkay Pig not creative,or a funny joke it's just kinda dumb and doesn't have a punchline. It was like a dad joke but without a pun.
When I hear that has being playing hip hope I was about to the my like away but ticking on time was one of my favorite songs when I was 13 so for the good times you can keep it!!
I Love his riffs
I love his hat, the Ralph Lauren logo with the reaper 🤘🏽
I always find it funny (in a nice way) when I see a big beardy dude being totally stunned when he meets one of heroes :D
title does not rly agree
they call it clickbait
@@swimon seemly
What brand is that hat his wearing? Loui logo but the dude is holding a saber?
Thank You Scott for the one and only SOD !!! In my opinition one of THE TOP 2 most brutal metal albums of that decade !!!
"Idk Charlie writes all my riffs"
Today in "Talking to Scott Ian with him barely playing any riffs"
Awesome 👍🏽👊🏽😎
Scott Ian is the 🐐
Or Scott Ian talks his favourite riffs
What a sexy guitar!
What a cool guy. Also the interviewer was great too, he asked good questions and didn't but in like so many others do
I love it
Interviewer knows "Bring the Noise" and that's it...
As far as riff's I heard a long time ago the first 2 albums & SOD as well Scott was the main music writer then from Among the Living on Charlie became the main riff guy. You can tell a pretty good difference between Spreading & Among style wise. If I met Scott that's the first thing I'd ask. When I met Frankie we talked for a little bit but I forgot to ask him about that. I'm sure he knows.
Didn't know that. Spreading was always my fave.
No, Spreading and forward is Charlie as main writer
his riffs on SOD, the march of the SOD are still heavy as fuck
Ok at least I’m not alone and I’m not the only one that can’t have a normal conversation with a guitar in my hand
Who ever this guy is, satchel makes more sense when it comes to riffs
One of best rhythm guitarists ever! 🤘🤘
Why the fuck would someone possibly dislike this video? Such a cool guy... Respect
Same reason people voted for Biden
Scott Ian, the Phil Collins of heavy metal. He’s everywhere
He's like Dave Grohl; the internet cannot ditch the guy no matter how hard it tries. These guys must have multiple publicists working overtime to get get them in front of every camera possible.
Best Anthrax rift for me is from Keep it in the Family.
Only! The Pre-Chorus
mf26 best one for me is turning off the anthrax, and putting on PANTERA!
I love him
One of Thrash Metal’s Greatest - Belly of the Beast - Scott Ian You RULE 🤘🤘
Gotta love the host that only talks about “bring the noise” his first hard rock album must have been LB “significant other” smh
More like “what scott ians thinks of pete townsend”
Should be "What Scott Ian thinks of Malcolm Young"
Love Scott Ian
If anybody noticed when he plays riffs, please let me know what time it was.
He looks like my Dentist xDDD
Dimebag Darrell he also looks a lot my former math teacher
He rocks your teeth, bro ?? Lol
He looks as though he's half swallowed a squirrel with that dodgy beard of his.
@@B6kmd And his cheeks are full of nuts. Saving up for wintertime.
Now clean your teeth or you're getting a fistful of metal.
Scott doesn't get older. He looks the same as 25 years ago! Only beard is longer now :)
This guys awesome! Anthrax is cool.
Oh, a new metal documentary? Can I participate?
-Scott Ian
Scott is a dead set legendary bassist, just like Thrax are dead set legends, whether it be under Joey Belladonna or John Bush the band is and will always be awesome.
Bassist?? He plays Rythm guitar
@@Rockandrollgeerage😂😂😂
felt like it was clickbait.. I was waiting to hear riffs from like AC\DC or Sabbath or Zep... I guess his fav riffs are his own
What a legend
Well he's not wrong, the March of the S.O.D riff is indeed pretty fucking heavy.
YAAAY THANKS FOR THE GREATNESS YAAAY
SCOTT IAN HIPHOP & METAL IS OK 👍
He kissed alot of ass on that.
0:03
You're supposed to pick with your wrist, not your forearm, Scott.
When you play fast ..playing with your wrist will hurt you and cause damage
Way to go Scott I like your style and unique sound you perfect so well
Just finished learning Intro to Reality on piano. Outta nowhere I felt like I needed to learn it. Thanks, guys.
"Scott Ian plays his 2 favourite riffs"
Scott once refused to take a picture with me :(
When and where?!?
seymour Butts Sonisphere Festival Lucerne (Switzerland) 2016
Orlando De Toffol you were naked and covered in peanut butter-give the guy a break.
I had a similar experience with him in the in the ‘90s, when they were on the “Sound of White Noise” tour. I was a kid then and he gave me the total rockstar attitude and refused to sign after asking politely to sign a GuitarWorld Cover he was on with Dan Spitz. He was one of my “Guitar Hero’s” up until that point. I’ve not bought another Anthrax album since. The rest of the guys were cool and signed stuff for me, even Danny Spitz.
Dude's a self important douche. Probably pissed that the only reason people buy his albums is because he's associated with the big 4
