What got me was at 0:51 when it kicks in and the smile on Nick's face. Clearly loving playing and we ALL clearly love watching and listening. Awesome drummer.
the man that made learn drumming . he had a very unique style that shaped megadeth identity , he gives you the exact right beat for every song and leaves you with almost nothing to improve on .his timing was spot on for how agressive he played , by the way just like most old school drummers like dave lombardo , nick never uses triggers , what he plays is what you hear which makes the drums sound rich and not robotic like the most crap you hear nowadays .
I remember getting out of school waiting all day watching the clock, walking to our local K-mart and buying this on cassette. Back in the 80's. I never took out of my walkman for at least a year..got luv that thrash metal..
Gar and Nick: Easily the strongest drummers in Megadeth's history. Nick is the fucking man. Sad they couldn't somehow work it out for him to remain in/rejoin the band.
I'm always in conflict on who do i think is the better drummer of those 2 :) Gar was phenomenal. Nick is the only one who could remotely imitate Gar's playing. Nick on the other hand played on some fucking kickass records and did a magnificent job on them. They're both equally good :)
NICK 4 EVER !!!!!!!! always loved the way he improved playing old school songs, and ther is nothing to say about what he created on RIP, CTE, Youthanasia
Thru this song, and others from Rust In Peace album, you can often see he smiling, it's amazing how this guy made me like drums. Listening to Megadeth albums you can see this guy was a genious, and mixing his drums, with Marty guitar we have some of the best albums ever! R.I.P.
Seeing this brings me back to my teen years listening to megadeth night and day just to learn every bit from each song R.I.P. Nick you will be truly missed but never forgotten 🤘🏼
Thanks for posting this! Nick's awesome. His playing on Megadeth's "Rust In Peace" and "Countdown to Exctinction" is incredible! Was hoping he and Marty would be able to rejoin the band, but i guess Dave couldn't pay him a decent wage.
Hear after Rust In Peace 30th anniversary, and gotta say wish Nick was still around he was one hell of a drummer. To 2 of the best drummers ever Gar and Nick, Rest In Peace you won't be forgotten
Megadeth really missed a golden opportunity when they decided not to get nick back on the drums for the anniversary of holy wars, such a shame it never happened. RIP NICK MENZA.
Nick nailed it, but this also proves how insanely good Gar was at complementing Dave's riffs. Gar was probably the best of the big 4, and that's saying something.
Is there anyway Soultone can release these tracks for us Megadeth fans? This is the closest us fans can get to jamming with Nick! Ripping the audio from RUclips just doesn't cut it for me.
everything sounds perfect, the bass drum is deep and sharp, perfect sounds from a personal hero, when i was a teen him, nicko and vinnie paul we the main inspiration, weve still got nicko though, proper charachter lol
Big reason for megadeths success I'm sure mustaine never paid him what he was worth and I hope he makes it right with his family because Menza took megadeth from a underground metal act to international rock icons
Nick didn't take them anywhere, he certainly helped. Mustaine was always the mastermind behind their success. Nick just happen to be there at the right time. Nick got famous because of Dave, and was taken to new heights because he joined Megadeth. His legacy is because of Megadeth. Any money made from sponsors were a direct result of being in Megadeth. All thrash bands were "underground" until Metallica started making music videos and proved to the industry that thrash can make them money.
Always loved the fact that he used Big sized K and K customs back in the day and now with soul tone uses very similar Big sized cymbals. Bright but dark with a hint of trashiness... It's a shame that you left us way too early.!!! Have a shot with Dime and Vince while you're there!!
come on people it was not aLL DAVE who didnt want it marty did not want to do it again ,ya have to let it go .he did not play for about 10 years after megadeth so things change people change .
I like this guy a lot. He’s a combo of groove and hard hitting. Too bad Dave didn’t dole out a few more “shekels, “ and maybe this line up could have lasted...It was a great line up...Chemistry is rare, and has value.
What got me was at 0:51 when it kicks in and the smile on Nick's face. Clearly loving playing and we ALL clearly love watching and listening. Awesome drummer.
Rest in peace Nick
'it so cool to see at 0:50 how nick just smiles when the riff comes in...
+henrik oliver johansen talvez ele estivesse se lembrando de como era bom tocar com o Megadeth
@@eloycardoso1358 Man o cara fala inglês e vc respondeu em português fknndjjjfnkdjdn
I could watch Nick play drums every day for the rest of my life and probably will

R.I.P Nick will miss ya brother

When he smiles he's nailing it
I can't stop crying, piece of my life has gone with him
Please, dude...
@The Dude i don't think he did
Jesus
that groove, Menza still superb

nick was definitely the bets live drummer

They're both equally good :)
He has passed now though unfortunately.
2 of Megadeth's best drummers are dead sadly :(
DrRosenpenis So crazy that thats undeniably true when they had Vinnie Caluletta (idk on the spelling) in the band.
The groove is so crazy in the whole track.
Gar was insanely good. He tied Dave's riffs together like no other.
RIP the best drummer megadeth ever haved... fuck
Nah, lacks the groove of gar and dirk
R.I.P Nick Menza, one of my favourite drummer :(
R.I.P Nick Menza!

As a guitar player in a band, i get goosebumps watching nick menza play
Miss him so much he was the best R.I.P. Nick. missed but never. will you be forgotten
NICK 4 EVER !!!!!!!! always loved the way he improved playing old school songs, and ther is nothing to say about what he created on RIP, CTE, Youthanasia
Thanks for the new backing track to jam to Nick! Loving it!
Never seen him without shades on.
Thru this song, and others from Rust In Peace album, you can often see he smiling, it's amazing how this guy made me like drums.
Listening to Megadeth albums you can see this guy was a genious, and mixing his drums, with Marty guitar we have some of the best albums ever!
R.I.P.
His smile at 0:51 like "good old memories..."
😔
RIP good sir.

Lovely single bass drum action which holds it all together and those 16th notes at the end so clean and even.
Brutal !
Thanks for posting this! Nick's awesome. His playing on Megadeth's "Rust In Peace" and "Countdown to Exctinction" is incredible! Was hoping he and Marty would be able to rejoin the band, but i guess Dave couldn't pay him a decent wage.
love this guy...
I want these soultone NM signature cymbals so fucking bad.
RIP brotha

R.I.P Nick menza!!
Rest Easy Nick & thank you 😥

Hear after Rust In Peace 30th anniversary, and gotta say wish Nick was still around he was one hell of a drummer. To 2 of the best drummers ever Gar and Nick, Rest In Peace you won't be forgotten
NICK MENZA fucking rules. The groove you have is a special thing. Devils Island never sounded better!
Nick was a bad ass drummer no doubt and probably my favorite drummer of all the Megadeth drummers R.I.P brother
Gracias por la magia Nick 🥺😢 lejos el más grande
Megadeth really missed a golden opportunity when they decided not to get nick back on the drums for the anniversary of holy wars, such a shame it never happened.
RIP NICK MENZA.
Give the man a decent ride cymbal.
R.I.P Nick Menza
Great nick
Taken from us too soon,we love and miss you nick. RIP
Nick menza excelente RIP. ETERNAMENTE
RIP Menza
RIP Nick
Que descanses en paz Nick Menza pobrecito che !!! Saludos de Paraná entre Ríos Argentina Guillermo ⚡💪🇦🇷💪⚡ aguante Megadeth !
Those toms are so meaty
Does anyone know the tom sizes? Racks look like 12", 14", 16"!
thank you for the music
Grazie Gar e Nick..Rip
Rip nick menza
I always dug the fact that he used darker crashes and rides. He used K custom stuff back in his Megadeath days. Always dug that!!
finally, metal
Nick nailed it, but this also proves how insanely good Gar was at complementing Dave's riffs. Gar was probably the best of the big 4, and that's saying something.
Oh my god he so good...
Is there anyway Soultone can release these tracks for us Megadeth fans? This is the closest us fans can get to jamming with Nick! Ripping the audio from RUclips just doesn't cut it for me.
everything sounds perfect, the bass drum is deep and sharp, perfect sounds from a personal hero, when i was a teen him, nicko and vinnie paul we the main inspiration, weve still got nicko though, proper charachter lol
Nick you should do good mourning next
When I listen to Megadeth, it’s all about the guitars. 🇺🇸😎
Big reason for megadeths success I'm sure mustaine never paid him what he was worth and I hope he makes it right with his family because Menza took megadeth from a underground metal act to international rock icons
He was a part of it for sure
Music is not about money nor fame.
After countdown they all became millionaries
Nick didn't take them anywhere, he certainly helped. Mustaine was always the mastermind behind their success. Nick just happen to be there at the right time. Nick got famous because of Dave, and was taken to new heights because he joined Megadeth. His legacy is because of Megadeth. Any money made from sponsors were a direct result of being in Megadeth. All thrash bands were "underground" until Metallica started making music videos and proved to the industry that thrash can make them money.
I mean how can could you get have get this these the that video videos of him Nick Menza...
He has modified the grooves, right??
Always loved the fact that he used Big sized K and K customs back in the day and now with soul tone uses very similar Big sized cymbals. Bright but dark with a hint of trashiness... It's a shame that you left us way too early.!!! Have a shot with Dime and Vince while you're there!!
Hey!! Nick please! Play rust in peace...polaris you never play this song in live
Oh my god he so good... I can say nothing...
monster
in the name of God: nick menza foreverrrrr!!!!!!!!!
Oh my god he so good... I cant say anything...
rip
Hail Nick and Gar they were the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, he hammered those drums....
This sounds great. Too bad things with 'Deth had to go down as they did. Would have loved seeing you back on your rightful drum throne.
Why the fuck did he have to die.rest in peace. Fucken bad ass
더블베이스 파워봐라.... ㄷㄷㄷ
Mustaine doesn´t deserve this talent in his band Megadave. Amazing sound by the way.
The Conjuring Please!
+Minemaker_5000 Search Nick Menza Drum Cam and you can see him live with the band.
i would have loved to have on here before he passed. too bad
A MetaL GOD.
Gar kicks his ass.
like the GOD than he is
come on people it was not aLL DAVE who didnt want it marty did not want to do it again ,ya have to let it go .he did not play for about 10 years after megadeth so things change people change .
"Hitman" Hart can play some drums!
I like this guy a lot. He’s a combo of groove and hard hitting. Too bad Dave didn’t dole out a few more “shekels, “ and maybe this line up could have lasted...It was a great line up...Chemistry is rare, and has value.
Btw, you should do a drum cover of Metallicas "The frayed ends of sanity" :)
Robert muther fickin johnson
I did not hit her! RIP Menza
Rip dude... Great drummer but no way Nick would have the stamina to play 90min sets on tour today
I cant say anything...
