frrr. like i wonder where metallica would be today with dave but like.. we got not only what metallica has, be we also have megadeth! 2 amazing bands with amazing songs
@@metalheadgaming4524Sure, that’s why he’s spent the last nearly 40 YEARS being a WHINY LITTLE BITCH ABOUT IT!!! It’s been nearly 4 complete decades and he’s STILL CRYING ABOUT IT!!
Nick Menza is one of the best metal drummers ever period. RIP and youll never be forgotten! Marty also. This lineup is my favourite Megadeth lineup and I think it was the best one hands down. 🍻👍
Not trying to start a war between those bitches again, but, rust in peace and master of puppets aren't the albums which pioneered thrash, but they are the ones who revolutionized thrash. I love both, so, you bitches don't bombard me with your shit, I mean Metallica and megadeth themselves got over it YEARS ago, so what's the problem with those guys.
I've always liked his voice. I didn't know some Megadeth fans didn't like Dave's voice until my friend told me he didn't. I was surprised to here him say that, and then I find out a lot of people agree with him. I really just don't get it either man, so I was happy he said that too.
MrRobcix1 What about Accept, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden? He should do a week with all the grand olds.. (hells.. most of them are still out there kicking tour dust.. another fact our boy here would appreciate methinks
Sure, and also he should do more Metallica like The Frayed Ends Of Sanity To Live Is To Die Eye of The Beholder Ride The Lightning The Call Of Ktulu Orion And also he should react to some videos from Seattle 1989
There's this whole thing about Metallica vs Megadeth but it's bollocks if you're a true metal fan, which I have been for over 30 yrs. Love both of them, Metallica are more anthemic and have more memorable songs and are brilliant at transitions in songs but Megadeth are smart, faster and technically superior. I've seen both live many times and Metallica are the better performers live but iron maiden are the best. But true metal heads listen to all.
Absolutely agree. It's just like the rivalry between the sub genres. Who cares if it its thrash, death, black, power or heavy metal as long as it's good metal?
I like Heavy Metal, Rap, country, classical and Opera, Coke and Pepsi, Star Wars and Star trek, Marvel and DC, all thirty-one flavors at Baskin Robbins and love both Metallica and Mega Deth. I have never understood having to pick one.
The riffs are tricky, but they aren't too bad once you get the hang of them. The interesting thing is that for me Marty's solos are actually harder than Dave's, mostly because Marty is cleaner, but Dave's is largely shredding so you can more easily get away with mistakes. Overall I wouldn't call it one of the hardest songs on guitar, although I couldn't play it while also singing.
The first time I heard Holy Wars was 1991...I was alone , in The dark with headphones on , exploring my step dad's music collection..I was literally exhausted after hearing it...I was freaking out there was nobody to talk to about it, i didn't sleep that night. It was so awesome. Holy wars is a fucking work of art.
As a fan of metal for 5 years Tornado souls can be considered as top solos but for me hands down Painkiller by Judas Priest has the best metal solo ever
If you want a song that will be another pillar, you need to try Paranoid, Iron Man, or War Pigs by Black Sabbath. They are considered the creators of heavy metal.
That lyric "Ask the sheep for their beliefs, do you kill on God's command?" was directly inspired by Dave accidentally starting a brawl between the Catholics and Protestants because of one drunken comment during an Irish concert Megadeth played at.
I'm just surprised the bands even went to northern ireland during the troubles. Dave's a good man though, he took the time to admit being a 'fool's and not understanding what he was talking about. When most americans would just chalk it up to 'FREE IRELAND LMAO' Then he wrote a killer track about it.
Very nice reaction! Welcome to the incredible world of Megadeth, one the best metal bands ever! Amongst metalheads, I believe "Holy Wars" is their most well-known song, and you can see why. After almost 30 years, it's still arguably their best track, but you can't go wrong with anything from this album ("Rust in Peace") or most of their catalogue. You mentioned Dave's voice at some point. It's very hit or miss for people (and certainly not the same after all these years), but what is more impressive is how he manages to sing while playing such complex rhythm guitar parts, most of the time unsynced between each other.
Fabio Riato I would say anything from the rust in peace era lineup is the best MegaDeth albums, but peace sells hands down should be his next reaction for MegaDeth. It is one of the strongest songs in all of MegaDeth's catalogue. That or in my darkest hour to get the link between Metallica and MegaDeth that is so intrinsic to the MegaDeth sound.
I have some other Megadeth suggestions: -Tornado of Souls -Rust In Peace... Polaris -Lucretia -Peace Sells -Sweating Bullets -Angry Again -She Wolf -Symphony of Destruction -Trust Most people would probably just suggest Symphony of Destruction cause it's another one of their most popular songs, but all the songs I mentioned and many more are worthy of your time.
There's no Metallca VS Megadeth. Dave was booted from Metallica for being a drug addict, Dave turned to his religion, got clean and all is forgiven, he even feels bad and apologized for punching James in the mouth when he was fired and James forgave him right back. It's ancient history, you can be a fan of both X-Box and PlaySta...I mean DC and Marv...I mean Metallica and Megadeth.
Alexander Maue In Dave's case it was street drugs like coke and heroin or trippin' on acid, the rest of the band were drank alcohol and smoked weed but weren't into heavier drugs that Dave was into. They and their label asked him to go into rehab but Dave refused so they cut him loose. It was the reality of being fired that caused Dave to reevaluate his drug use but he also said he thinks that James firing him probably saved his life so in the end, no hard feeling from the band members, only wanna-be poser fans carry on that pointless grudge argument of who's better. They're both decent in their own ways just like the ither members if the Big 4, Anthrax and Slayer, are decent in their own ways, it's time to stop comparing them to each other and enjoy them for what they bring with their own styles.
Dude, Dave Mustaine is hands down one of the greatest metal guitarists to ever live. He writes riffs like no one else can, AND vocalizes while he plays (with riffs as complex as his, it's not an easy task). Dave really paved the way for a lot of metal musicians out there.
I feel the big four is like Metallica: want me to go fast Anthrax: want me to go even faster? Megadeth: haha that’s cute, I’ll show you fast Slayer: *maniacal laughter*
Chris Lewis Definitely can’t agree with that. Metallica are pretentious and overhyped. They stopped being a great band after the black album. They’re not Metallica anymore. They’re James’ ego.
Finally Megadeth! :D When I was a small little boi, around 14, and heard this for my first time I didn't like it at all, thought there were too many transitions and coulnd't get a hold of the song 😂 Coming back to it many years later I can obviously realize it's one of the best metal songs ever written haha :) Hangar 18 (full version, NOT MV version) or Tornado of Souls next :D
Other giant pillar in your heavy metal journey is Judas Priest. They are one of the original metal bands. I would suggest Painkiller or Breaking the Law.
FoodIt3ms He can also react to Electric Eye, Screaming for Vengeance, You've Got Another Thing Coming, Hellbent for Leather, Living After Midnight, The Sentinel, etc etc etc.
Great reaction, thank you Alex for this. If you want more Megadeth songs you should probably check out Tornado of souls. Also I would like you to check out Pantera, their song Domination is wild live and has one of the best solos ever by my favourite guitar player Dimebag Darrell (see profile picture :D) Edit: oh yeah you already did forgot about that :P
Tomislav Gredisnjak Tornado of Souls is probably my favorite Megadeth song. Since Alex loved the solo for this song, I bet he's going to go wild with Tornado of Souls' solo!
Hi, Alex! You should check out the "other" Megadeth, song called "Symphony of destruction". it's different from this, but you'll love it! (it's famous song, it got me into Megadeth, and i think many other people too) Great reaction btw, love Holy Wars and love that you love it too ^_^
Sadly most ignorant people think metal is ALL shouting and 'just noise'...I once thought the same. Shame they'll never get past their ignorance and discover how amazing the genre truly is.
Real hip hop has absolutely nothing to do with beats and notes. It’s all about the message. People have forgotten about that because of the shitty music being put out today. Metal is just as garbage in 2018 as rap is. There is literally no good music anymore.
That is the great thing about Megadeth, is that they start a lot of in depth discussions about politics and religion. Another band that does this very well is Fear Factory. You should definitely do a reaction of Replica or Fear Campaign by Fear Factory.
I met Dave backstage on the Euthanasia tour backstage and he was easy to talk to like a friend or neighbor. Dave embodies the never say die attitude in all of us.Truly his music , energy and self is embedded in the history of Metal.
For some background, Dave Mustane, the lead singer and guitarist, was originally the lead guitar for Metallica, but they fired him before recording their first album and hired Kirk Hammett. The first... ten, fifteen, years of Megadeth was basically just Dave swinging a giant middle finger in the air at them for firing him.
Azazoth - yes that about sums it up. And as a result of the middle finger was some of the best metal ever created. Sadly it just wasn’t as appreciated then as it is now.
Yeah I always tell people the same. Mustaine getting booted from Metallica was kind of best case scenario. We got 2 epic bands out of it. Even though he got the boot before Kill'em All, they still had to credit him on almost every song on the album AND songs on Ride the Lightning. So at least forever in fame because of it. Him just being able to say he played a part is almost all of Metallicas best work is a fuck you in it's self.
Thank you for doing all these reaction videos on Metal. It's nice to see an intelligent person open his mind for something different. Once again, thank you!
So that is the brilliance of Dave Mustaine's mind: Hire one of the most insanely fast speed metal guitarists out there, Marty Friedman, and then just to remind everyone Dave absolutely shreds too? He shreds LIKE A BEAST on this song. Fucking KILLED it. And so intense right out of the gate. Nick Menza, the badass drummer here, was just this intense all the time. To echo someone else's earlier post, criminally underrated. I used to have this CD EP with like 3 or 4 Megadeth songs, most of which were not on their regular full length releases. Anyway. I remember getting to the end of one song that had such high octane manic energy, and the song ended...but Nick just kept slamming away at the kit like the song was still in full swing. And it was hilarious because Dave had to yell into his mic "Nick...NICK!" to get Nick to stop whaling away on his kit. (whale2--verb, whaled, whal·ing, to hit, thrash, or beat soundly) Too funny.😂😂😂😂 RIP Nick Menza.
Ive always liked Megadeth, and listened to them, what was so nice was seeing your reaction throwing out a bunch of hype, quite refreshing indeed! Thank you for the upload!!
SERIOUSLY THIS! Charles diamond is so right. They are all off the same album, and have the same energy, However the lyrics may not be as deep as this song right here. BUT STILL
One of the best memories of my life was moshpiting to this song. I had been always thinking about that when I was a teenager and two years ago when it happened and the concert of Megadeth ended with their very best song I cried. Best concert of my life. Mustaine is truly a professional.
Is this a dream ? XP Great reaction man ! Another amazing song by them (and my personal favorite) is Tornado of Souls. This song has the best solo EVER ! Please, react to Sons of Winter and Stars by Wintersun, this song will blow your mind !
Amazing video bro!! Congratulations!! I recommend you to try Anthrax - Indians, is one of the most popular songs of Anthrax! Is considered one of the Big Four of Thrash Metal (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax)
Great reaction video Alex, I love how you instantly pick up on the nuances of the lyrics for such radically different music to what you’re used to listening to. If you’re looking to expand the Megadeath repertoire I can wholeheartedly recommend “Sweating Bullets” and “Symphony Of Destruction”. I love the energy and positivity you bring in your videos, there is not enough of this in the world and it’s refreshing to see. You seem to be a genuine, lovely guy and I appreciate you buddy.
Incredible song, incredible playing, incredible energy. I think it's cool that Dave Mustaine plays the solo at the end- he and Marty are great guitarists!
Love motopsycho myself. I'm in a minority but there's great stuff on Risk and to me the Risk paid off nicely. Time , Insomnia etc very much worth listening to and judge for yourself if experiments with a base of your sound is worth it.
Loved this reaction! The song really does leave you speechless the first time. Megadeth was my favorite childhood band. I like that you did research on the song ahead of time too.
Yes! Don't forget metallics anesthsia pulling teeth live in chicago 1983. I commented last video but I really want this reaction and I am very excited for that video
You have to do Motorhead now. It's a must do. You gotta hear the band that inspired metallica and was the reason James Hetfield kept his beard looking like Lemmy for almost a decade of their early days.
Amazing channel! I am so happy to have stumbled across this. Megadeth has a few tracks where an instrumental introduces the song. Try "Set The World Afire" and/or "My Last Words". Keep up the awesome reactions!
thank you for this reaction 👍 I was your age when this came out 😂 I've seen Megadeth live 8 times they're my favorite band of ALL-TIME Holy wars is the greatest thrash song ever \m/
the best thing Metallica did was fired Mustaine... or else we would not have this AMAZING band!!!!
frrr. like i wonder where metallica would be today with dave but like.. we got not only what metallica has, be we also have megadeth! 2 amazing bands with amazing songs
Amen brother
And the best thing Dave Mustaune did was not hire Vinnie and Dime or we wouldn’t have had Pantera. The metal gods had our best interest in mind!
kirk was the better fit for metallica, megadeth was meant to be. we got the best timeline on this one.
@@Law-Enduring-Citizen wait I never heard about that I love dime and vin rip both
I am so glad James and Lars fired him. For Dave was able to express himself more than those two ever would let him.
Dougie D funny bc alot of ppl complain of Dave doing the same.
Let’s be clear, Dave fired them.
@@metalheadgaming4524
No
@@metalheadgaming4524Sure, that’s why he’s spent the last nearly 40 YEARS being a WHINY LITTLE BITCH ABOUT IT!!! It’s been nearly 4 complete decades and he’s STILL CRYING ABOUT IT!!
Yeah,...but still that had to suck for him, but he got off his @$$ and showed everyone what REAL heavy metal is.
People like to rip on Daves voice but goddamn it's perfect for this song
Daves voice is PERFECT for Megadeth. It may not be perfect singing........but who cares?
I love his voice, dunno why everybody moans about it.
Love Dave’s voice,it’s anger and pain...it’s real
i like megadeth but damn his voice is pathetic as fuck
porpsi It's Thrash metal, why tf do people shit on his voice lol what do they expect smh
Nick Menza is one of the best metal drummers ever period. RIP and youll never be forgotten! Marty also. This lineup is my favourite Megadeth lineup and I think it was the best one hands down. 🍻👍
Nick's dead!?!?
I hate to break it to you but nick menza passed away almost 3 years ago
poland was awesome....peace sells was the best lineup
AGREED.
Gar is better.
One of the best metal songs ever.. Period!
Amen to that
Top 3 for sure
Yes indeed
Yes it is.Rust in Piece was a masterpiece.
Not trying to start a war between those bitches again, but, rust in peace and master of puppets aren't the albums which pioneered thrash, but they are the ones who revolutionized thrash.
I love both, so, you bitches don't bombard me with your shit, I mean Metallica and megadeth themselves got over it YEARS ago, so what's the problem with those guys.
Did you know that Dave Mustaine (lead vocals and guitar) played in Metallica? You can hear his influence in "Kill 'em all" by Metallica.
Agnese Cemulini and ride the lightning
wait he did?
One of the most known facts in metal, yes. The rivalry didn't just pop up from nowhere, hehe =)
His only contributions to Ride the Lighting were Call of Ktulu and the main riff in Ride the Lightning (song)
Yes, he did. They kicked him out early on and they had a feud for years.
I'm so happy because you said. "His voice is incredible "
Alfonso01 Rojas Loredo Holy Wars, imo, is the song where Dave’s voice fits the best. Or peace sells.
I've always liked his voice. I didn't know some Megadeth fans didn't like Dave's voice until my friend told me he didn't. I was surprised to here him say that, and then I find out a lot of people agree with him. I really just don't get it either man, so I was happy he said that too.
Mustaine lml
because it is :D
Except it is not :D great band tho
The entire Rust in Peace ,album is a work of musical genius. And as a guitar player I can say it's very challenging to play also
Fuk an A, I remember listening to it over and over trying to learn the solos -- crazy hard!!!
Fuckin' A*
Bruh... crazy hard took me 5 years to get this album down guitar. It's no joke
If you want more Megadeth you could always check out "Hangar 18", it's much more instrumental which I think would really interest you!
or tornado of souls for that sick freaking solo
Megadeth - Tornado Of Souls
Pantera - Cowboys From Hell
Pantera - This Love
Megadeth - Victory
MrRobcix1 What about Accept, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden?
He should do a week with all the grand olds.. (hells.. most of them are still out there kicking tour dust.. another fact our boy here would appreciate methinks
Sure, and also he should do more Metallica like The Frayed Ends Of Sanity
To Live Is To Die
Eye of The Beholder
Ride The Lightning
The Call Of Ktulu
Orion
And also he should react to some videos from Seattle 1989
Give megadeth-tornado of souls a go
The vocal are higher pitch and it’s one of their best songs
And Marty Friedman's guitar solo is one of the best leads ever cut to tape.
And the best metal solo ever
Tornado is a okay song. Great solo the rest is just okay. Five Magic’s is probably the best track off the album
Matt Van Winkle what? Okay? Tornado is the best
The solo in this song is easily the GREATEST thrash solo ever written
There's this whole thing about Metallica vs Megadeth but it's bollocks if you're a true metal fan, which I have been for over 30 yrs. Love both of them, Metallica are more anthemic and have more memorable songs and are brilliant at transitions in songs but Megadeth are smart, faster and technically superior. I've seen both live many times and Metallica are the better performers live but iron maiden are the best. But true metal heads listen to all.
Absolutely agree. It's just like the rivalry between the sub genres. Who cares if it its thrash, death, black, power or heavy metal as long as it's good metal?
Everyone better like this fucking comment! Al Clark is very correct
I like Heavy Metal, Rap, country, classical and Opera, Coke and Pepsi, Star Wars and Star trek, Marvel and DC, all thirty-one flavors at Baskin Robbins and love both Metallica and Mega Deth. I have never understood having to pick one.
Hella true brother! Can't get enough of all the badass thrash these 2 prolific bands have to offer. 🤘🤘
You think Megadeth is more technical than Metallica that's funny you are definitely in the minority
RIP Nick Menza. He was the drummer.
He's with the aliens now. R.I.P.
He was THE drummer!
higler420 omg that reference HAHAHAHA
:)
Nick was the best!!
Probably one of the hardest songs to play on guitar
Chris Calvert tell me about it bro I have to do those spider warm ups before I play that song so I can be precise
Ryan Bazail even then it’s still like wtf lol. Props to Dave for singing and playing that shit!
Chris Calvert I agree it's even difficult to play and sing at the same time even with an easy song so it's damn impressive
The riffs are tricky, but they aren't too bad once you get the hang of them. The interesting thing is that for me Marty's solos are actually harder than Dave's, mostly because Marty is cleaner, but Dave's is largely shredding so you can more easily get away with mistakes.
Overall I wouldn't call it one of the hardest songs on guitar, although I couldn't play it while also singing.
You think thats hard, try it on guitar hero 😂
Marty Friedman, one of the all-time greats on guitar.
I love this lineup. Classic Megadeth
The first time I heard Holy Wars was 1991...I was alone , in The dark with headphones on , exploring my step dad's music collection..I was literally exhausted after hearing it...I was freaking out there was nobody to talk to about it, i didn't sleep that night. It was so awesome. Holy wars is a fucking work of art.
You have to Listen to Tornado Of Souls, it has the best Solo in Thrash metal history hands down. And i don't even listen to Megadeth that much.
YES! Megadeth - Tornado of Souls. IMHO the best song on the album.
Or Hangar 18. Goddamn that album is good....
Julius Juntunen Half the album is shite and the other half is genius. It’s not consistent though.
MardyBum100291 the fuck are you smoking the entire album is a masterpiece
That Marty Masterpeice is one of the greatest solos in ALL metal history.
As a fan of metal for 5 years Tornado souls can be considered as top solos but for me hands down Painkiller by Judas Priest has the best metal solo ever
If you want a song that will be another pillar, you need to try Paranoid, Iron Man, or War Pigs by Black Sabbath. They are considered the creators of heavy metal.
FoodIt3ms GENERALS GATHERED IN THEIR MASSES.
D00mnoodle / Sergeant Purge JUST LIKE WITCHES AT BLACK MASSES
JUST LIKE WITCHES AT BLACK MASSES
Hell yeah OZZY
FoodIt3ms if hes gonna do sabbath he needs to do the song that started it all black sabbath
That lyric "Ask the sheep for their beliefs, do you kill on God's command?" was directly inspired by Dave accidentally starting a brawl between the Catholics and Protestants because of one drunken comment during an Irish concert Megadeth played at.
Drunken comment, no surprise for Ireland.
I'll drink to that! MEGADETH RULES!!!
Choose ' deth
I'm just surprised the bands even went to northern ireland during the troubles.
Dave's a good man though, he took the time to admit being a 'fool's and not understanding what he was talking about. When most americans would just chalk it up to 'FREE IRELAND LMAO'
Then he wrote a killer track about it.
Damn, I love this opening riff. Spasmodic! And Nick Menza was a brutal drummer. RIP.

Now you need to check out Judas Priest - Painkiller
Cory Love he does indeed
I have some other Megadeth suggestions:
-Tornado of Souls
-Rust In Peace... Polaris
-Lucretia
-Peace Sells
-Sweating Bullets
-Angry Again
-She Wolf
-Symphony of Destruction
-Trust
Most people would probably just suggest Symphony of Destruction cause it's another one of their most popular songs, but all the songs I mentioned and many more are worthy of your time.
My Last words or Wake up Dead too :)
hangar 18, a tout le monde or bad omen.
99 ways to die!
You would suggest the most mainstream songs how about “Liar” to top all of them.
Eric Rios You don't know anything about me... other than that I like Megadeth. How about Kill The King or Mechanix? Is that still too mainstream?
Yep, thrash metal is the best. Try Megadeth's Symphony Of Destruction.
In... TENSE.
Or Tornado of Souls. The solo is a masterpiece
Probably my favorite song from one of the best albums I have ever heard.. Sometimes I like Rust in Piece Polaris a little more, depends on my mood.
A true mastapeeeeece
Every Friedman solo is a masterpiece. I'm assuming that's the one you're talking about. Not that there's a bad Mustaine solo either.
wanderlust

I mean alcohol can be classified as a drug if you want to be specific
Alexander Maue yeah but nobody thinks of alcohol when you say that something happened because of drugs

You should check out: Iron Maiden - Fear of The Dark Live in Rio 2001
Awsome performance and amazing crowd participation! :D
Amazing concert, I was at the Rock in Rio festival in '01
That´s awsome, unfortunately i was about 1 year when it took place but love that entire Live album to death.
Dude, Dave Mustaine is hands down one of the greatest metal guitarists to ever live. He writes riffs like no one else can, AND vocalizes while he plays (with riffs as complex as his, it's not an easy task). Dave really paved the way for a lot of metal musicians out there.
i would put him 2nd to tony iommi
I like how everyone that reacts to this song gets amazed by the 8:36 part. I honestly think it's sick af
And on live concerts it goes faster...
9:18 and onwards: that expression can often be seen on little girls' faces on adult websites. 😂
Please do “Tornado of Souls” by Megadeth
Austin Gonder Dat solo
This needs to be the next Megadeth song for sure.
YES!
This, 100 times this.
Lucretia would be a great one too...
Finally! Bro react to "Metallica - To Live Is To Die". You will enjoy
Garri hell yes such a beautiful song :')
I feel the big four is like
Metallica: want me to go fast
Anthrax: want me to go even faster?
Megadeth: haha that’s cute, I’ll show you fast
Slayer: *maniacal laughter*
Bad Word excellent 😀🤘
Nice post. But Metallica is still the best metal band that has ever lived.....And it aint even close.
Chris Lewis Definitely can’t agree with that. Metallica are pretentious and overhyped. They stopped being a great band after the black album. They’re not Metallica anymore. They’re James’ ego.
Chris Lewis priest is better
Chris Lewis That's totally wrong
One of the best metal songs ever written.
top 10 for sure
Finally Megadeth! :D When I was a small little boi, around 14, and heard this for my first time I didn't like it at all, thought there were too many transitions and coulnd't get a hold of the song 😂 Coming back to it many years later I can obviously realize it's one of the best metal songs ever written haha :) Hangar 18 (full version, NOT MV version) or Tornado of Souls next :D
PlexyPanda Dio :p
Yes and She-Wolf, Peace Sells But Whos Buying, Ashes In Your Mouth and more epic songs
Something of the killing is my business is insane
Boi
Hangar 18!
Tornado of souls - Megadeth
Agustin Caniulao dont waste your time alex. Daves voice is super shitty in that one
I'd go for "Take No Prisoners" or "Five Magics" myself. Better vocals on both songs.
I have heard it like a billion times and I still get chills when I hear it. Thanks for sharing.
Other giant pillar in your heavy metal journey is Judas Priest. They are one of the original metal bands. I would suggest Painkiller or Breaking the Law.
Both great songs. Awesome suggestion :).
I would also recommend: Accept - Metal Heart!
FoodIt3ms He can also react to Electric Eye, Screaming for Vengeance, You've Got Another Thing Coming, Hellbent for Leather, Living After Midnight, The Sentinel, etc etc etc.
Just got back half an hour ago from seeing Megadeth AND Priest! 😃
Their new stuff from Firepower is AMAZING as well
berganssekk DUDE!!! HOW WAS IT??
Pantera - Floods \m/
Wolf †, how bout slaughtered or drag the waters?
Are you the wolf out of L'enfant sauvage?
Megadeth - Peace Sells
Megadeth is not only my all time favorite metal band but Dave Mustaine easily has one of the best metal voices of all time.
React to Metallica - Battery live in Seattle 1989
Great reaction, thank you Alex for this. If you want more Megadeth songs you should probably check out Tornado of souls. Also I would like you to check out Pantera, their song Domination is wild live and has one of the best solos ever by my favourite guitar player Dimebag Darrell (see profile picture :D)
Edit: oh yeah you already did forgot about that :P
Tomislav Gredisnjak he already reacted to Domination live
Tomislav Gredisnjak Tornado of Souls is probably my favorite Megadeth song. Since Alex loved the solo for this song, I bet he's going to go wild with Tornado of Souls' solo!
G G oh yeaaah i forgot about that sorrrryyyyy
Dime is GOD!!! (my profile picture :D)
Thrashy the Thrasher666 Dimebag created some insanely good riffs when he was still alive. I miss him too. :(
You should listen the whole album "Rust in Peace". One of the best albums of thrash metal
A masterpiece! Definitely one of my desert island albums.
Wait until you see this song live.. it will change your life
Now you have to listen to Anthrax, that way you will have heard the big 4 of thrash metal.
Hangar 18
Hi, Alex! You should check out the "other" Megadeth, song called "Symphony of destruction". it's different from this, but you'll love it! (it's famous song, it got me into Megadeth, and i think many other people too) Great reaction btw, love Holy Wars and love that you love it too ^_^
You gotta do Tornado of Souls
or lucretia
Judas Priest - Electric Eye ps&qs
Rock on! 🤘🎶
the Hellion and electric eye as they are one epic song split into two
ᕼᑌᗰᗩᑎ ᖴᗴᒪᒪᗩ painkiller as well
Painkiller!!
And Breaking The Law!
+Josh Rudy Painkiller has been requested *too* many times. There are songs just as good as it.
That moment when you finally listen to Metal and realize there are more then 3 notes and 1 beat in music
3 notes... LOL... Right... Read the tabs on this song.... LOL! Metal is great!!!
Congrats, you have completely misunderstood what I wrote. Pretty much the opposite of what I wrote. So maybe read the comment properly ?
Sadly most ignorant people think metal is ALL shouting and 'just noise'...I once thought the same. Shame they'll never get past their ignorance and discover how amazing the genre truly is.
Lol he's open to a new music and seems tolerant while you hate him all the time for being hip hop fan
Real hip hop has absolutely nothing to do with beats and notes. It’s all about the message. People have forgotten about that because of the shitty music being put out today. Metal is just as garbage in 2018 as rap is. There is literally no good music anymore.
That is the great thing about Megadeth, is that they start a lot of in depth discussions about politics and religion. Another band that does this very well is Fear Factory.
You should definitely do a reaction of Replica or Fear Campaign by Fear Factory.
Fear Factory, damn. havent heard that name in years. still wasnt a fan though.
edit: fan=/=fun
Fear factory is awesome
I met Dave backstage on the Euthanasia tour backstage and he was easy to talk to like a friend or neighbor. Dave embodies the never say die attitude in all of us.Truly his music , energy and self is embedded in the history of Metal.
For some background, Dave Mustane, the lead singer and guitarist, was originally the lead guitar for Metallica, but they fired him before recording their first album and hired Kirk Hammett. The first... ten, fifteen, years of Megadeth was basically just Dave swinging a giant middle finger in the air at them for firing him.
Azazoth - yes that about sums it up. And as a result of the middle finger was some of the best metal ever created. Sadly it just wasn’t as appreciated then as it is now.
We need to thank Lars everyday because of that. Now we have two all time great metal bands instead of one.
Yeah I always tell people the same. Mustaine getting booted from Metallica was kind of best case scenario. We got 2 epic bands out of it. Even though he got the boot before Kill'em All, they still had to credit him on almost every song on the album AND songs on Ride the Lightning. So at least forever in fame because of it. Him just being able to say he played a part is almost all of Metallicas best work is a fuck you in it's self.
Please learn some music.
exposed love Dude, why's it gotta be like that? Why not just enjoy some incredible metal and just say fuck the dumb shit??
Try HANGAR 18 But not the official video!!!'
Possibly I've seen too much, Hanger 18 I know too much
Mr Vengeance they butchered that song in the video and the radio edit
Not the official video. It's edit
yeah, the best part of the song is the solo duel after the second verse
@@feelingtardy Soo true
Megadeth sweating bullets is a must inparticular the music VIDEO
You don't gotta pick sides but if you choose Megadeth ......your correct
BurningBeard especially considering without Dave's influence and Cliff Burton.... Metallica is junk.
✊️😄👍
Tru.
It's my correct!
You are correct. I saw them in high school in 1998 on acid and it was a religious experience
Thank you for doing all these reaction videos on Metal. It's nice to see an intelligent person open his mind for something different. Once again, thank you!
FINALLY! Now you need to do a Symphony of destruction
Rogul Totally agree xD
Rogul or more of rust in peace
Lamborgatti -47 agreed
Nah Hangar 18 or Tornado of Souls
Cementery Gates by Pantera!!!!!!!
So that is the brilliance of Dave Mustaine's mind:
Hire one of the most insanely fast speed metal guitarists out there, Marty Friedman, and then just to remind everyone Dave absolutely shreds too?
He shreds LIKE A BEAST on this song.
Fucking KILLED it.
And so intense right out of the gate.
Nick Menza, the badass drummer here, was just this intense all the time.
To echo someone else's earlier post, criminally underrated.
I used to have this CD EP with like 3 or 4 Megadeth songs, most of which were not on their regular full length releases.
Anyway.
I remember getting to the end of one song that had such high octane manic energy, and the song ended...but Nick just kept slamming away at the kit like the song was still in full swing.
And it was hilarious because Dave had to yell into his mic "Nick...NICK!" to get Nick to stop whaling away on his kit.
(whale2--verb, whaled, whal·ing,
to hit, thrash, or beat soundly)
Too funny.😂😂😂😂
RIP Nick Menza.
That's their cover of Black Sabbath's Paranoid 😂 great song, great cover
DREAM THEATER - PANIC ATTACK
YES!!! that's a rollercoaster ride in i'ts own right!!
YES
Tornado of Souls by Megadeth
GREAT REACTION MAN! Please do dystopia next!!
It’s nice to see a member of the younger generation reacting with an open mind to music I grew up with. Well done.
U finally did it !! Now it’s time for Megadeth - Hanger 18 😘
Symphony of Destruction
MEGADETH rules and will always still the show. You should try a song by them call secret, or was it secret place.
Ive always liked Megadeth, and listened to them, what was so nice was seeing your reaction throwing out a bunch of hype, quite refreshing indeed! Thank you for the upload!!
Pantera - cowboys from hell
Or
Megadeth- five magics
Zacky Fox nah better cementary gates
Zacky Fox five magics is soooooo good
five magics is their best song
MEGADETH is the best
you had to that in did'nt ya
Now listen to tornado of souls, five magics and hanger 18. You won't regret it.
I've mastered..... 5 magics!!!
The whole album is definitely a must have.
you mean 5 mad chicks?😂
@ChronoWind It's all a matter of opinion. Even though you're wrong. The whole album is a masterpiece.
SERIOUSLY THIS! Charles diamond is so right. They are all off the same album, and have the same energy, However the lyrics may not be as deep as this song right here. BUT STILL
"Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" the best ever heavy metal song!
Mustaine is a metal god !!!!!
Megadeth - Symphony of destruction
GamefXd gay
Hue G. Rection yep. That song has always been their "enter sandman " to me.
His neck is gonna hurt after that hahaha
grayson schmidt yeah seriously, try in my darkest hour or something, I can think of fifty better megadeth songs.
Devildriver - Clouds Over California!!!
One of the best memories of my life was moshpiting to this song. I had been always thinking about that when I was a teenager and two years ago when it happened and the concert of Megadeth ended with their very best song I cried. Best concert of my life. Mustaine is truly a professional.
Architects - These Colors Don't Run :)
Is this a dream ? XP
Great reaction man ! Another amazing song by them (and my personal favorite) is Tornado of Souls. This song has the best solo EVER !
Please, react to Sons of Winter and Stars by Wintersun, this song will blow your mind !
Amazing video bro!! Congratulations!! I recommend you to try Anthrax - Indians, is one of the most popular songs of Anthrax! Is considered one of the Big Four of Thrash Metal (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax)
Great reaction video Alex, I love how you instantly pick up on the nuances of the lyrics for such radically different music to what you’re used to listening to.
If you’re looking to expand the Megadeath repertoire I can wholeheartedly recommend “Sweating Bullets” and “Symphony Of Destruction”.
I love the energy and positivity you bring in your videos, there is not enough of this in the world and it’s refreshing to see.
You seem to be a genuine, lovely guy and I appreciate you buddy.
symphony of destruction
peace sells but whos buying both by megadeth
u gotta listen bro
I CO-SIGN THESE TWO SONGS AS WELL PEACE SELLS AND SYMPHONY OF OF DESTRUCTION I THINK ARE THE TWO BEST STUDIO VERSIONS
Incredible song, incredible playing, incredible energy. I think it's cool that Dave Mustaine plays the solo at the end- he and Marty are great guitarists!
Best way that I’ve ever heard this song described is that it’s a love story between a man and his guitar.
This song is a f--kin banga, the message and the music is so intense.
Sweating bullets and Motopsycho next from megadeth. You'll love em both~
Pierce Nine Motophycho. Not so much, it is too poppy.
Yeah, bit of a strange choice given the sheer number of excellent songs Megadeth have...
Pierce Nine Fuck yeah! Sweating Bullets!!!
Love motopsycho myself. I'm in a minority but there's great stuff on Risk and to me the Risk paid off nicely. Time , Insomnia etc very much worth listening to and judge for yourself if experiments with a base of your sound is worth it.
Megadeth - Hangar 18
Judas Priest - Painkiller
Pantera - Cowboys from Hell
3 of the best metal songs ever
Metallica - Seek and Destroy or Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
+1 for Sanitarium, awesome song.
Loved this reaction! The song really does leave you speechless the first time. Megadeth was my favorite childhood band. I like that you did research on the song ahead of time too.
Nick Menza so underappreciated
Was, RIP.
Countdown to extinction is a great song by megadeth too
Some Arch Enemy maybe?
Or Manowar - Warriors of the world
Dom' Valhalla Or Blood of My Enemies, Sons of Odin, Hail and Kill, or such.
But yea, Warriors of the world is an ok introduction song to Manowar..
SortenRavn I think the same bro!
I love your reaction at the end when Mustaine shows you how good he is with a guitar. Absolutely priceless!
Yes! Don't forget metallics anesthsia pulling teeth live in chicago 1983. I commented last video but I really want this reaction and I am very excited for that video
TwinBorn i want to hear AM I EVIL or Enter sandman already
YES YES YES i need this. I can’t stop smiling to your reaction. I love this band sooooooo much. Dave is fantastic
You have to do Motorhead now. It's a must do. You gotta hear the band that inspired metallica and was the reason James Hetfield kept his beard looking like Lemmy for almost a decade of their early days.
"Early days"? What???
They had quite a few albums under their belt by the late 90's when they did that look.
Already a HUGE band world wide.
Amazing channel! I am so happy to have stumbled across this. Megadeth has a few tracks where an instrumental introduces the song. Try "Set The World Afire" and/or "My Last Words". Keep up the awesome reactions!
Please REACT to IRON MAIDEN THE TROOPER🎸🤘🏻
PREDATOR X iron maiden iron maiden
React to "Symphony Of Destruction - Megadeth"
Nick Menza best Megadeth drummer!! Rock in Peace Nick!!
F T that goes to Jimmy DeGrasso. Watch Rude Awakening
thank you for this reaction 👍 I was your age when this came out 😂 I've seen Megadeth live 8 times they're my favorite band of ALL-TIME Holy wars is the greatest thrash song ever \m/
The sad thing is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING EVEN COMES CLOSE! MEGADETH RULES!!!!!!!
