Alternative title: why bass is so important in metal music
Seriously though, sick guitar tones and playing but it sounds so thin without a bass guitar in the mix
Got a damn good point there man🙂🤟
I knew the Maiden was missing something
Tell that to the producers of “and justice for all...”
Axle Gallardo To Lars actually. The guy who did the mix thought it was wrong.
@@luisdss Hetfield also approved
I noticed that in the first four, the British riffs made me head bop and foot tap. The American ones were pure headbanging. This was my physical reaction to those 4 riffs. They are equally good. Iron Maiden is my favorite band.
British metal tends to be more upbeat, American darker and grittier. I'm no musician, so I cannot pinpoint the musical explanation -- in terms of notes and scales they favor -- but at least from these examples (which admittedly have been cherry picked) there is a clear difference in vibe.
As you can see Iron Maiden is my favourite band too hahaha
At first I thought that's a stupid way to differentiate between these styles, then I realised that I stopped tapping my foot when Enter Sandman started. Instantly reversed my opinion. That's a brilliant observation.
@@adamlevine6700 eu concordo. Era essa diferença que eu estava procurando.

I randomly clicked on Heath Ledger playing some riffs and I'm not disappointed
Been here since whenever I was here still think Heath Ledger gave us the slip
What you should be disappointed in is how you spelled disappointed.
Why so serious?

Don't worry about it Joey! Have a lb sandwich and a lot of chicken soup and some garlic bread for dinner. Carrots peas and chips for lunch next week and then off to bed for a few months.

Is no one gonna talk about how he's got a shirt from every band he played
He just wanted an opportunity to show of his merch
No big deal in it.
Yeah he paid the $20-25 bucks for each one, it's not a secret they're readily available at each bands website, concerts, Amazon and probably at Walmart.
@@Barry.Mckockiner135 Coolest band merch I had was my hat that said FOG on it. Get it, FOGHAT.

UK more melody, US more intensity. Both great.

idk man but british heavy metal has and always will hold a spot in my heart

Nah Murica wins
@@aminabdullayev1545 Most great rock bands are from England.
When the British guy started playing Ozzy, the American should’ve started playing Dio since Ozzy was a British vocalist with an American guitarist while Dio was an American vocalist with a British guitarist
Viv is from Ireland 🇮🇪
Sylent Storm actually he’s from Northern Ireland which is part of the UK so he’s British
Chris Hopkins Bass you are correct! That counts. Still, putting the Randy Rhoads riff on the British side was a stretch 😎
They both sang for sabbath too

I agree. To me, Jimi Hendrix pretty much "taught" every future guitarist from any rock genre (and sub-genre) from the 70s and onward how to rock out the axe. 🎸 🎶
So yes, rock is one eternal family tree.
Megadeth and metallica...

i really preffered the british riffs so much more. can you do "american solos vs british solos" next?
that is actually a great idea !
@@MatthewScarMetalhead can’t wait to see it
It doesn't help when he plays american riffs like iron maiden. Like bruh your a good guitar player but you put no soul into those american riffs like some one like dimebag does.
Prediction: Eddie and Randy win 😘
Not sure I'd classify Crazy Train as British since the guitarist was American. And wasn't Ozzy living in the U.S. by this point? I'm not exactly sure when he moved to the U.S.
British - Melodic
American - Heavy

I would almost argue Crazy Train would be American metal too since Randy Rhoads was a Californian guitarist.
Almost
Best guitarist of all time, but british metal Is black sabbath, Judas priest, iron maiden, there's no contest between us metal AND the pioneers of metal the britishs... The ozzy band with Randy were americans+british
@@RRbestever Yes, but since it is guitar that is being compared here I'd have to put crazy train in the US category.
I think I’d still class Crazy Train as British even with Randy being American. I wouldn’t have Guns n’ Roses in a UK category for a similar video just because Slash is from Stoke.
@@joed5089 Well that makes sense considering all of the members of Black Sabbath were British. However that wasn't the case for Ozzy Osbourne's solo stuff.

For much of the riff battle the British heavy metal precedes American heavy metal by at least 10 years. The British heavy metal also involves much more dexterity on the guitar, more key changes, more variation in the number of chords and more sophisticated musical ability.
Yeah listening to this the American ones are really quite boring compared to the british ones
@@redfox8078 To be fair the song choices were kinda leaning in the British direction. There are much better examples for the bands selected.
I mean choosing enter sandman for metallica and symphony for megadeth is kinda.. Not fair? Both songs are supposed to be more mainstream, therefore notably more simple than other stuff they have
I know this comment is 2 years old, don't care.
Either way the real winner is our Ears

German metal
Wise answer 👍
The real win is the friends we made along the way

There is no sense on dates of songs, 70s on british, 90s on americans
British metal started late 60s while USA metal started late 70s, so that might explain it.
Nonetheless, I agree with you and comparison could be better.
@@R3DONE I knew metal was a late 60s thing, but I didn't know american metal came later.
I always found kinda funny that one of the classic metal bands, Black Sabbath, is often seen as Hard Rock nowadays.
Dates don't matter, content does!
@@tadpetrie3464 Of course dates matter. The older the metal is, the less likely it is to be "heavier". You just can't compare 60's metal (no matter the band) with metal from the 90's or 2000's.
@@amandasantini6265 What? What is 60's metal? The first Black Sabbath came out in '69. Also, you say old metal is heavier? Really? Did they play death metal back in the 70s?
Look at the timeline of these riffs.
The Brits laid the foundations in the 70s.
@William Small Mostly because we had a musical like revolution with so much good music in the 70s and 80s
Uk has Maiden,, thats like cheating.
And Motör fuckin Head
and where are Metallica from? Just asking...
RMV USA
@@alexrandell9199 then USA is cheating hahaha.
USA has Pantera and Slayer that's better than them all
I know its riffs only and im scottish so arguably biased, but motorhead just hits so... right on the sweet spot. Timeless as ace of spades is (even without the vocals) it still just doesnt feel right without lemmy's legendary AYS OF SPAYDS peppered through it. Personal favourite song out of those covered in the video, and comfortably so.

@@nashhi1160 KREATOR
The most noticable thing for me is that british heavy metal tends to be more technical, while american heavy metal is more catchy. British heavy metal bands usually want you to hear a complex guitar riff simply to show off their prowess, while American ones just want you to nod your head and jump around. That being said, there are obviously exceptions. Dream Theater for instance, has an amazing guitarist that truly puts his skill to work in many of their songs.
As a composer I'd say it isn't really a difference in the level of technique, but where it's being channeled. British leads are incredibly technical, where american rhythms are incredibly technical. I can absolutely play some of my favorite Maiden lines since I mostly play lead, but I struggle whenever I pick up a Megadeth chart since the chords and progressions require such intense and brutal hand positioning. If you want an example of what I mean there, go check out the charts for Holy Wars or Tornado of Souls, those songs are just tremendously brutal
@@stephenwilliford-compositi6395 With Megadeth that's understandable. Dave Mustaine practically invented thrash metal. I remember watching a video some time last year where he played live with Metallica, and got to choose the song and the pace of the song. No one in Metallica could keep up with him and they ended up struggling through the entire tune while Mustaine just took it all in his stride. He's an incredibly talented guitar player for sure.
Ozzy is the winner..he made it on the list twice!
Oh yeah with black sabbath. 🤟
So did Dave Mustaine technically
@@riderp3803 well yes, he was part of Metallica for some time but if I remember correctly he was not there when they released Metallica (black album)
Naw.
This is showing that there's clearly amazing talent for guitar playing and song writing in BOTH the US and UK.
...y el ganador es....
El rock Metal y nosotros. Los q disfrutamos estas tremendas bandas. Saludos de Chile. Entretenido el vídeo.
Mathew my friend for including Ace of Spades - respect💪
:) also in Iron maiden vs All riff battle ;)
Well, "Crazy Train" is both British (Ozzy) and American (Randy Rhodes)
I didn't think of that
Given that its a battle of riffs, I'd classify the Ozzy songs as American
But Randy actually wrote it. All Ozzy did was sing
@@JimTomatore shut up he’s British
@@dranarchy5552 So, it belongs to the Americans then
British: E
American: everything lower than E
Black sabbath did the drop D since the beginning.
Metallica uses E
Megadeth uses standard tuning too
Exodus, testament, Overkill, Anthrax, Metallica, Megadeth, even some pantera and Slayer....
Need more usa with e standard?
I don’t think Metallica dropped until Load. I think.
this is heavy metal vs thrash metal though.
Exactly
Thats what i had in mind
no, not really 😀
Megadeth heavy metal 🤦♀️🤦🏻♂️
Not really at all there was one maybe 2 thrash songs in the entire set
Lot of classic heavy metal, little bit of doom metal
Excellent and most enjoyable! Well played. Yes well played.
thaaaaaank uuu !!!!!
British: heavy metal
American: Every other metal genre
And power metal too
WOW
@Mailroom Clerk dude what are u talking about? Heavy metal is one and its British no doubt
Except black metal lol
No
I literally sang along to all these songs
I love your videos!
thank u Gustav 489 appreciate it \m/
I'm 50 and forever a Metalhead! FOREVER!!! Even if I live to be 80.
I'm 56 and will always thrash!!!!
@@kevinblackburn3198 😆🤟👍👴👩🦳
64, same here 🤘🤘🤘
u kinda bad for 50
Sure I can say you're heavenly pretty 😍
Great channel, amazing playing, keep going brother ❤
It just feels like the Britain's metal is like a dad who has experience and practice behind it's shoulders and US metal is a enthusiastic child who is just winging it and sometimes hits just right but sometimes goes way off, so both are good in their own ways both have their own flaws but they are both great none the less.
And by the way great playing and real nice but of editing too, enjoyed the video a lot thanks!
Technically true with that analogy as the young ones of 83 had listened to Black Sabbath and all that also and then later on so on and so forth. This is like how it was with Classical music from like Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi to like Tchaikovsky and then later Igor Stravinsky it's all pretty good going as someone who's probably a bit too broadened horizons.
@Gen X lol
@Gen X I take it that you've never heard of Venom?
This is mostly how I feel about the difference too. British heavy metal tends to be complex and technically impressive, though that doesn't always result in a catchy tune you'd be whistling as you walk down the road. American heavy metal is much simpler, but also more catchy and sticks in your head. British heavy metal is made from the love of playing guitar, American heavy metal is made to become a popular band that makes a lot of money.
You'd be surprised how many talented guitar players waste their skills on simple catchy headbangers simply because technical riffs don't sell records.
@Gen X I British però, per anni,lo hanno interpretato tecnicamente meglio.
Personalmente, non saprei dare una preferenza; per me è Heavy Metal uno e l'altro.
Non faccio divisioni geografiche.
The Crazy Train Riff was written and first played by Randy Rhoads, who was American.
But: I love Slipknot, Metallica, Pantera but the Winner here is GB.
But there wouldnt be a Metallica if it wasnt for a certain drummer in the band, whom is Danish.
@@Roylevis There wouldn't be a Metallica, if not for a much better British band called Diamond Head
There wouldnt be music or rock if it wssnt for evolution... 😉
@@Roylevis There wasn't any evolution. Metallica just straight up copied Diamond Head. More of a blatant rip off then an evolution.
Lol well i ment The evolution of mankind...
The winner is my mom because she bought me donut.
What kind
@@metalben005 Man she bought him a donut, shouldnt that be enough?
Won't that make you the winner then!?
Well what kind??!!
Hands down
This was really cool, non stop clever dirty smile on my face the whole time. Well done. Subbed.
Thank u very much 🤘 if u like riffsbattle u r in the right place 🙃 done quite a few so far,,, n many more to come 👌😎
American “Heavy” Metal
British Heavy “Metal”
This is what I felt after watching this video.
he just picked bad songs, like there are tons of more heavy Metallica and Megadeth songs. Same for Maiden and Judas Priest.
@@ЉубомирКосовић these are all metal classics from American and British bands not bad ones
@@josh.c9733 i didn't said these are bad songs in general i said they're bad example of heavy metal.
@@ЉубомирКосовић we'll both of us have different opinions
I think they are heavy
@Pikey Haze there is a difference between metal and considering as metal. Like, wasn't gnr considered as heavy metal back then? Everyone can call a song heavy, so yeah, there's defenitely bad example of heavy.
And the winner is..... The viewing Audience... Ta Daaa....
Well played sir
england is the father of heavy metal
Nah. England is a lady. Everyone knows that. England is the mother of heavy metal
@@THuang-lt1ob If England were a gender it would definately be female.
Well then. America is the grandfather of heavy metal.
In other works America is the father of..........
Find it for yourself.
Tony Iommi is the father of metal
@@Magic_Benzi_9 Yes,and Rob is the God.
Очень круто сделано!!! Спасибо автору)
Those transitions were very well done, dude! 🤘🏽
Appreciate it man thank u😊🤟
UK.. .any day of any week!!
Maiden... Priest... Leppard... so many great bands with iconic songs!
British rock all day over generic American sound. And I’m American. The Brits perfected all forms of rock. They have the ultimate all time bands who I don’t even have to name, it’s so obvious.
And what does Leppard have to do with heavy metal?
Serious comparison here: British Heavy Metal seems to be slower and more rhythmic where USA metal is just hard hitting and fast.
Where the British focus more on the flow of the notes, the USA just gives it all the power they've got.
(Kind of fitting for other things in this situation, too... Like the military.)
But in the end, neither one is better. They're different, but equal in greatness.
I agree with you but America's songs is thrash metal, soooo its diferrent
I thought it was the opposite, i thought british riffs sounded more clean and refined and speedy. American riffs sounded more chunky and distorted to me
tool
Coughs in guerilla warfare
Sorry,but the opposite is the right answer
Thank you for this minutes of amazing intros of heavy metal. Regards from Chile.
Thank YOU 🙃🤟🤟 many more on my playlist 😊
This video deserves 800 MILLION views!!!!! Not just 800k!!! You Rock, bro!
