The Four Horsemen was actually James and Lars’ rewrite of this song, you can here Metallica (with Dave) doing this song on they’re No Life Til Leather demo and in live footage from 82/83
Not completely, Mustaine added the Sweet Home Alabama middle part.
Do you remember the V death mission? Ive only seen it once. But I did see it.
hear*
right before that you can hear a little bit of iron man from black sabbath@@pulseimages
@@pulseimages You're nit picking and misinformed, both of you.
Yes! Megadeth!🤘🏻
'Mechanix' was the original version of 'The four horsemen'... Dave Mustaine wrote it and it was originally on Metallica's 1982 demo... Around 1983, Metallica got Cliff Burton in the band and (I'm guessing) decided to re-arrange the song w/ new riffs and new lyrics... Kirk Hammett ended up playing on the final version on "Kill 'em all".
When Mustaine formed Megadeth, he decided to record the original track 'Mechanix' w/ the original lyrics and added an intro to it.
Dave Mustaine wrote this song when he was in Metallica -Lyrics and Guitar parts for Metallica at the time -it was originally called Mechanix - theres a live version on a cd on youtube from 83 with him in the band playing guitar -He was the lead guitarist ryhthm in Metallica
When Dave joined he already had mechanix and jump in the fire from his previous band
One of my favourite Megadeth songs that you havent reacted to yet is In My Darkest Hour.
Story behind that song is that he wrote it immediately after hearing the news that Cliff Burton had died.
One of their best songs.
The music part not the lyrics. The lyrics are about an ex-girlfriend.
In my darkest hour is good. Head crusher is awesome too. Psychotron is a classic. This day we fight… if you want to go back to that album, I suggest last rites/loved to deth
NOT possible. This album came out in 1985. Cliff died in September 1986. So no...
Great reaction Lilly Jane! So many great songs, the energy from “Rattlehead”! Wake up Dead, Devils Island, The Conjuring, Good Morning/Black Friday, these songs will definitely get you going. If you listen to Rattlehead, go with The Final Kill remaster. Any other Megadeth album don’t listen to the remastered version. Just my opinion.👍🏻🤘🏻
The remasters of the first 3 Megadeth albums are the only ones that should have gotten the remaster treatment in my opinion which are the versions that Lilly should react to. Everything else from "Rust in Peace" and onward didn't need to be remastered.
Yes!!!!! do Rattlehead. Probably the best song off of Killing is My Business"
Rattle your goddamm head 😎
He might as well have just taken the vocals off of the "These Boots" remaster lmao
So glad you’ve come back to Megadeth!!!
One of my favorites from this album is Looking Down the Cross, I really would love to see you react to my favorites Good Morning Black Friday, The Conjuring, In My Darkest Hour ( music written by Dave Mustaine when he found out about Cliff Burton’s death) Into the Lungs of Hell (instrumental so fucking good) She wolf live Rude Awakening video dueling guitars and incredible drums
Totally agree especially the she wolf live rude awakenings video
U gotta do the whole album...it's perfection. This is the original metallica version btw, released in their 1982 demo tape "No Life Till Leather".
whole*
This isn’t the Metallica version
This is Dave mustaines song that he wrote by himself
@@Leatherface123. yeah he wrote it, but it was originally Metallica because he brought it to the band.
@@fadetoblack1290oh man, don't confuse Gen Z. :-P
@@user98xp lmao
My favorite Megadeth song, while not the most played or technical but the vibe and lyrics just speak volumes - "Countdown To Extinction".
There is a two part on Risk I really like
Just saw Megadeth this past Tuesday night. Bullet For My Valentine and Oni opened up. GREAT show! My favorite Megadeth song? Tough call, but I gotta say "Peace Sells" with "In My Darkest Hour" a close 2nd. They did play "Peace Sells" at the show, but not "In My Darkest Hour". Can't have it ALL I reckon! Started the show strong with "Hangar 18" and finished strong with "Holy Wars". Anyway, enjoyed your reaction, as always. And enjoy whatever Megadeth song you react to next. Whichever song that may be. 🤘🤘🤘
Одна из любимых песен у Megadeth❤
Last Rites/ Love to Death and Rattlehead are my favorites by them and are part of this album!
Nice work! I'd suggest Good Morning/Black Friday off of the Peace Sells album. It's definitely in my top 3 of Megadeth songs.
Agreed!
One of the best Peace Sells songs, with the best riffage of the album imo
Actually, this was originally Dave’s song that he wrote for Metallica before he got kicked out and The Four Horsemen is the slowed down version of Mechanix
I remember reading online that the bpm on this song (minus the slower intro of course) is 258 bpm, so there's the answer to Lilly's question in case anyone (including Lilly) is reading this. Megadeth is actually the band that got me into metal when I was a kid and I've seen them live multiple times (including the most recent tour) and when anyone ever asked who my favorite band was I always said Megadeth so it's always interesting to see videos like this and grt new perspectives on music that I grew up on. I'm sure I'll be watching more videos on this channel in the future.
Thanks for your reaction 👍
😂😂
Love yer reaction.
This just shows that Dave is an Awesome guitar player.
My favorite Megadeth song is Good Mourning/Black Friday. Its a song sung through a serial killer's point of view.
Lol I always thought of this song as the soundtrack to the big black Friday sales after Thanksgiving. Hell, back in my day it used to look like a mosh pit in Walmart on Black Friday anyways, would have been fitting music to be blaring out over the speakers.
@@sirraf23
Well said!
"Wake Up Dead" is my favorite. The title reminds me of a cleverly titled Motorhead song "Killed By Death".
Good Mourning/Black Friday off Megadeth’s 2nd album
My favorite Megadeth song is sweating bullets.
Ok let’s be real. We’re “really” here because Lilly’s super adorable.
He ain't wrong!
Partially
Her facial expressions are priceless
UGH!
Lily Jane is very beautiful,Indeed
'Looking Down The Cross' is the best song on this album. It's basically a masterpiece. I'd like to see her react to that one. 😁🤞
I can't give you my favorite song from Dave. because he blows my mind on every one of them. He's the only singer I know that puts expression into his voice he's the only one with instrumental Talent like this
No disrespect. I love these guys. Got to meet them in the 90s. Awesome guys. James rewriting this song was amazing. You can tell the difference in quality of lyrics and topics. It's all ok. This is how Dave wanted and James made it his way. I think my favorite comparison is this song you get the basic bass drum sound. In the Horsemen, the bass drum sound like thundering hooves coming at you. World of difference.
The four hourseman is slower than Mechanix. Both literrally different.
Dave wrote this about his time working doing oil changes as a mechanic before joining metallica
The story behind this song (vs the four horsemen) made me a megadeth addict for life! 😝🤘
Favorite Megadeth song would have to be "In my darkest hour" .... you'll love it
Do this whole album, please 🙏🙏🙏.......Rattlehead is my favorite off of this album....who am I kidding, I love this whole album
difference is the speed, attitude, and the fucken drumming.
is it sin to say i love both versions!!!
I’m personally relieved to know that some people can pick both and feel like they have to chose one. I’m a Metallica fan, but you won’t find me shitting on Megadeth.
I love both version but Mechanix takes it for me, I always prefer speed metal to thrash metal, and besides, I prefer Dave's vocals
@@fanaticofmetal I think Dave’s vocals are the biggest reason I’m not their biggest fan. And Metallica has more rythm & melodies… but that’s why we get both!
@@bradmotl2083 I prefer Dave's vocals because they're more high pitched and a bit rougher
This is what really happened and it is all verifiable(a lot of it on youtube).
To clear the confusion I read in the comments..
This is the original song.
It was re written to Four Horseman BEFORE Dave left the band.
James didn't like the lyrics and Lars complained that it was too fast(the warning signs were there in the beginning LoL).
It was slowed down, the sweet thing added in etc etc.
Metallica changed it very little between then and Kill em All.
Great review, I love that people are still into the music I had growing up.
Was a really special time for music in general, so many things changed for good.
My one wish is before I leave is Dave and James to go in to the studio one last time, one song, no Metallica, no Megadeth.(hire people or something)
Just the 2 of them and some guitars.
My favorite MEGADETH song are "Holy Wars..." but you Lilly had reacted to it. The whole Rust In Peace (1990) album is my #1 from them, I'm also love all their 80's records up to 1992 Countdown to Extintion.
Ashes in your mouth, My last words, Architecture of Aggression are some of my favorites.
My Last Words is a very underrated Megadeth song which gets little love. It definitely needs more reactions.
You should check out their cover of Nancy Sinatra's These Boots (the Original, not the remastered - read reply below). It's also from their first album and is an absolute blast.
The original album version, not either remastered versions. The 2002 remastered added 'Beeps' to block out certain lyrics Dave changed. The 2018 remastered Dave overdubbed with the original Nancy Sinatra lyrics.
@@metaltildeth6783 Thanks for mentioning that as I had no idea since I've never heard the remaster.
Oh here is it! Now you know the two versions :)
I used to like them both the same. Later on I greatly tilted towards The Four Horsemen. Mechanix's intro is very super cool though. "Sex starved mechanic Dave", step no further.
From what Junior (Ellefson) tells, Dave decided to up the tempo of his album in spite, after hearing Kill Em All (in which Metallica actually slowed down the tempo for the recording).
To me, that was Megadeth's most "band like" lineup, where it was actually Megadeth, and not just Megadave. Chris Poland and Gar Samuelson's influences was legendary.
In My Darkest Hour should be next. Dave Mustaine was a very angry man in the 80s and Darkest Hour is probably where you can hear it the most in the performance.
Some other under rated songs I haven't seen mentioned by others - Victory, about Dave overcoming his drug addition (some great solos alternating between Dave and Marty Friedman), and My Last Words, about playing russian roulette. Also anything from Rust In Peace, its all good. Early 90s Megadeth had the best lineup in my opinion. Nick Menza (RIP) on drums, and Marty Friedman on guitar.
Countdown to Extinction is definitely MY favorite.
I don't have a favorite Megadeth song but there are songs that I could listen to on an endless loop.
Angry Again which also on the Last Action Hero soundtrack.
À Tout Le Monde
Peace Sells
Holy Was - Punishment Due
Symphony of Destruction
Train of Consequences
Foreclosure of a Dream
Mechanix
Dave wrote that song! Peace sells is a good one.
😘
Megadeth - In my Darkest Hour idk if you done that but it's great, its lyrically great not just musically great
Great job on the reaction as usual... favorite Megadeth song on this album easily rattlehead but overall I have too many but if I had to name one it would be five magics
Rattlehead and Killing is my business are a must listen !
Favorite Megadeth tune is wake up dead.
Good mournig black friday its the best
This is not an Megadeth version of it,, this is the original Dave Mustaine wrote this. James Hetfield stole the riff and rhythm, and wrote the four Horsemen.🤘🏼❤️🤘🏼
Subscribed cause you got mac back there. And listening to megadeth you got good taste
One of my favourite Megadeth songs outside of the obvious is “Trust”. It’s more 90s alternative metal / hard rock, but I think it’s great.
That song has the best intro in rock history!!!
So many favorites! But “Through My Darkest Hour” carries the most weight for me.
You mean "IN My Darkest Hour"? xD I don't understand how some people can have favourite songs and don't even know their names.
Megadeth - The Conjuring next!!!
In an interview Dave stated that when he wrote that song it was about a horny gas station attendant which was about his self he was a horny gas station attendant 😂😂
One of my favourite Megadeth songs has always been Peace Sells But Who's Buying? Or anything from that album!
"Putting all Four on the floor"... the Four Horsemen, that is, lol.
I have a few favorites one being Diadems and Wanderlust. About equal between the 2.
Bpm they prolly used in the studio was 258 playing half time against it
You gotta react to some more songs off of this album! Looking Down the Cross is such an insanely underrated track, it's literally my fav Megadeth song ever lol.
Five magics or In my darkest hour are tied for my favorite you’d probably love both of them
My top Megadeth song is holly wars. Tornado of Souls and Hanger 18 are also in my top 3.
Dave put "his own twist" on another song from this album, a cover of Nancy Sinatra's These Boots.
It's actually really a good cover, and not just cos he dirtied it up, lol.
To be fair, Dave asked Metallica to not use his rhythms after he was kicked out. That really pissed him off. He also has some rhythms on ride the lightning. The verse of title track , and a piece of call , same as beginning of hanger 18 note for note. Just played different. Take it how u will. Both legendary bands , full of talent. And if dave wasn't kicked out, we'd have no megadeth.
Well, I mean this was the version that Dave wrote for Metallica, prior to being fired and then changing it.
Dave wrote most of the riffs and songs that made Metallica what they are. MEGADETH FOREVER
Sure. He wrote Fade to black, Creeping death, and the whole master of puppets and And justice for all albums, all by himself.
In my darkest hour.
hear this whole album
It's so hard to say that any song from a band that I love is my favorite song. There's no such thing as a favorite song from bands like Zeppelin, Floyd, The Doors, The Beatles, Luscious Jackson, The Cardigans, Morcheeba, Ratt, Dokken, etc., etc. ... or from musicians like Randy Rhoads, Tina Guo, Jimi Hendrix, Franz Liszt, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Johann Strauss, etc., etc. ... From Megadeth, you should check out Symphony of Destruction.
the main difference between Mechanix and the Four Horseman is that Mechanix is excellent.
The Kill em all album from Metallica is Dave Mustane slowed down. Different lyrics yes but he only played guitar for Metallica. When he formed Megadeth the next day Dave just couldn't find a singer to match their intensity so Dave just decided F that I will just do it myself🤘😈🤘
Something tells me she likes the colour green
Hello reaction song last rites/love to death , album killing is my bussines 1985,intro piano cool
You will love "Hook in Mouth" Lilly. Your ]V[EGADET]-[ reaction videos are lacking on the "So Far, So Good, So What?" Album (don't think you have any?)
In my darkest hour is her only reaction from that album I'm pretty sure
This is the original sped up after Dave was kicked out of Metallica. You can see them play the slower version live with Dave.
Ahhhhh this song is great. It wasn't meant to be a serious song, even though some take it that way due to its tie in with TFH, but still its a great riff and a staple for both bands. Dave likes to tease Metallica anytime he plays this live at a Megadeth concert, LOL.
Darkest hour is great, though their new album is surprisingly good too, my fav (that you’ve not already done-I hope) return to hangar… it’s like a sequel song to hangar 18 which I’m pretty sure you did ages ago
MegaDave!
This was the original song on no life til leather. Metallica re wrote it to become horsemen.
megadeth, my darkest hour react
I’m sure you know by now these Megadeth songs sound so much like early Metallica because Dave Mustaine used to be Metallica’s guitarist a contributed a lot to the songs on Kill ‘em All
...somehow, I never really noticed the lyrics to this. Just random car words...I hadn't realized what he was singing.
As far as favourite? So many have memories tied to them, but I'll have to say either Reckonging Day or 1000 Times Goodbye. Neither of which are on their 'best' albums, though.
Dave had to out do Metallica with the speed. I'm glad you checked it out Lilly!!!
Nope. Metallica slowed it down. This is pretty close to the tempo of the No Life Til Leather version. Mechanix is the original, Four Horsemen is a remake.
@@deaconj3406 you are correct 💯....I was just simplifying for our newbie.
Good Reaction! but if you thought "Mechanix" was fast, you have to listen to Slayer's "Necrophobic"...
Try "Poisonous Shadows"... great lyrics, arrangement and singing.
Hahahahahha! Awesome! 🤣🤣🤣
Try "Washington Is Next". 👽
I definitely think Metallica's lyrics fit the "mood' of the song a little bit better.
Plus, Metallica threw in that awesome metal - breakdown.
Four Horsemen at a faster tempo. Bit with cheesy lyrics.
Actually, "The Four Horsemen" is Metallica's version of this. This is the original.
Megadeth - Post American World
Supposed to sound like a motor running/Erving, as opposed to horse galloping, maybe?
My favorite Megadeth song is "The Conjuring".
Into the Longs of Hell!!!
The Mechanix is supposed to be Megadeth song that counters Metallicas The Four Horsemen.
Half way uses the same type of guitar rifts as Dave was the one who came up with it when he was with Metallica in the early days.
Last rites, I loved you to death. its so EPIC
RIP GAR
Megadave ❤ great reaction. You should check out ashes in your mouth.
Yea, if you haven't listened to Good Morning / Black Friday yet.
Take No Prisoners is up there as fastest song, like how can they play that fast and sound good.
All Megadeth is great but " Victory " is good for utilisation of is titles to made is lyrics for the entire song
you gotta try listening to both No Life til Leather and the Power Metal demo by Metallica. Power Metal has Dave extremely drunk doing backup vocals to Metallica's version of this song. it's hilarious and awesome and those recordings are great moments in metal history
i'd also like to see what you think of old school industrial bands. I'd check out Front Line Assembly you might really like that, they have a song called The Blade that samples a great old school hip-hop track
Please check out She Wolf from Rude Awakening live by Megadeth. It's solo is awesome.
80s Mustaine was a high energy, drinking, drug-addled psycho with serious balls (or ball bearings lol) who made some damn good music. Hard to pick a favourite but "The Conjuring" and "Bad Omen" from the Peace Sells album are fantastic for the instrumentation. Drums and bass are grooving with Dave's punky sleazy riffing to top it off. Best Megadeth album IMO.
