Personally, i think that dave mustaine's guitar playing is very technical,complex and chaotic. His solos are incredibly aggressive and technical at the same time. I mean even And Justice for All which the critics claim as the most technical and progressive thrash metal album recorded by Metallica pales in comparison when it is compared to 'Killing is my business...And business is good" or "Peace sells...But who's buying it''. Although Megadeth enjoys a very high reputation, i still think that Megadeth is highly underrated by the music critics.
Dave's Solos arent technical, maybe his early days before his arm injury, yes. But most of his solos are the same style, you can tell when the lead and rhythm guitars switch during solos because its so noticeable. Im a huge Megadeth fan its what molded me, But chaotic is a good word for his guitar playing, its almost as if he wants to sound "fast", so he will smash chords to start the madness going. i.e. KIMB riff is insane, it sounds like jibberish. In Riff making, Dave is a God, and the fact that he does all this shit while singing is hard to grasp.
Well, Metallica song formula is what makes them sounds like really progressive but they're not. Also, their "copy & paste" section formula is what makes them sounds progressive but their riffing itself is never progressive and technical. After mid section they always comes back and play the first half of song again so most of their songs has a longer length. For intense, if Master of puppets is Megadeth song, it would have ended after the mid section but Metallica loves to repeat it from the intro all over again. Majority of songs in Megadeth early albums (even some of their later stuff) doesnt have part or section that being repeated. Dave tend to avoid going back to previous section of the song. Just listen to Wake up dead, Hangar 18, Mary Jane, Ashes in your mouth , Holy wars, Tornado of souls, Rust in peace, Five magics, Take no prisoners, The skull beneath the skin, The conjuring, Looking down the cross, Black friday, Blackmail the universe, Burnt ice, Poison was the cure,Headcrusher , Bad omen, Fatal illussion, Lying in state , Vortex, etc.
Ohh have ever heard about two guys Jef and Kerry? Literally they made real thrash metal. When I hear or read the comments such as “mustaine created thrash metal” - did you hear thrash metal in your life?
It's the most complex guitar wise album they ever made. Most megadeth fans were introduced to them during the countdown to extinction era so they think it's the best line up. The original line up is the best though, they originated that unique sound that later lineups built upon
@@jlobiafra Totally agree, although for me his best album is Rust in Peace, these first two albums are not far behind, they could easily be on the same level. These dudes created the wave of technical Thrash Metal, and they dont have the recognition they deserve according to me
@@mafasah98 I still prefer peace sells over rust but that's just me. Chris poland and gars created that unique jazz quality I had never heard incorporated into thrash. Rust in peace kicks ass too
@@branimirs You could really make an argument between their first 4 albums about which one takes the cake. Peace Sells is great, SFSGSW is great, my personal favorite, and Rust In Peace as well..
This is why Mustaine blows my mind. He's playing the rythm and singing at the same time. It's BONKERS! Also the 7 down votes are obviously jealous trolls, you rock!
@@matthewmartinez3596 Well, there are still drugs like cocaine that awaken all your senses to the fullest, so if he was under that substance he probably didn't even think about what he was doing, he just did it xd
Here I am on another one of your videos, late to the party by more than 2 years, and I am absolutely blown away. You are a wonderful talent. Keep it up!!! \m/
+Dave Mustaine I think my next cover will be a Symphony X or Death or Sylosis or Warbringer cover or smth along those lines ;) Done enough Megadeth covers lately :D
Learning this song right now. I've got pretty much everything down except the riffs at 1:24 and 2:26. Im not sure if I actually understand how those riffs are played. Looking at the tab it seems that the notes between those chords are muted (like --XX--XX--) (not palm muted low E 0-0-0-0 type chugging). Am I right or am I making it much more complicated? It's definitely hard as hell if the muted notes are played like gently pushing the strings, but not so hard that they make noise (hard to explain, but you know what I mean). Who would've thought their hardest stuff is on their debut album. Holy shit!
Very mean tone! Nice! This cover makes me understand what Mustaine really meant when he said that he wasted a lot of great riffs on this album. The guitar on its own is great, but the overall mix and production job doesn't do the whole deal justice!
At some point could you maybe do "Set the World Afire"? or "Into the Lungs of Hell"? I know you've done a lot of Megadeth covers lately, but I mean whenever you can would be great! Nice cover btw! :D
Dude, you are one of the best Thrash guitarists on youtube, so I have to ask of you this, since I'm not sure anyone else can do it: Can you play Khomaniac by Artillery? One of the best thrash songs, but sadly NO ONE on youtube has covered it (well).
+kurzackd Hey! First, thanks for the recommendation, didn't know anything from Artillery yet and it sounds pretty cool ;) Maybe I'll look into it in the future, but I can't promise anything yet Have a nice day!
+Ristridi Cheers mate! I really recommend their entire "By Inheritance" album. They're very underappreciated and generally not well-known to the world. I'm pretty sure you can appreciate its thrashiness + melody. cheers.
'Speedballs' apparently. As Junior put it, "It was great! The heroin helped you come down off the cocaine. We forgot that everyone died from it. We forgot that part."
hey that riff is really complicated to play indeed! At the "partially muted" part I usually mute the downstrokes and play the upstrokes open. It's something in between a mute and a ghost note though, it's really hard to describe and it took me a long time to get it flowing with the song. Really twisted part
Appreciate your response Ristridi but I still don't understand lol. Every cover I have watched, the person plays it effortlessly and it looks like they alternate every note. When I attempt it at snail's pace it still sounds disjointed and wrong.
Hey man sweet cover, very cleanly done! How old are you if ya don't mind me asking, I'm 15 and been playin for 3 years and you'd kick my ass at this song any day of the week lol

I think that's what he implied, that pre-injury he was good at what he did.
Metallica are also overrated as hell.

Could not agree more. Megadeth makes Metallica look like a bunch of chumps. In every conceivable way. \m/
Dave Mustaine=Engineer of Thrash Metal and the creator of Technical Speed Metal. There i am worshipping Dave Mustaine.
Lee Sak thrash metal, yes. speed metal, yes. technical speed metal, please stop
Isn’t all speed metal technical?
Definitely on my Mount Rushmore for one of the True Thrash Pioneers.
@michaelmiglino6512 Dave Mustaine invented thrash, got Metallica famous then Made the greatest band ever known to man. ]v[egadet]-[
Ohh have ever heard about two guys Jef and Kerry?
Literally they made real thrash metal.
When I hear or read the comments such as “mustaine created thrash metal” - did you hear thrash metal in your life?
This song has an inordinate amount of killer riffs. And still I don't understand how it is so underrated, this album in itself is underrated, a shame

me too!
My favorite album
Their best record.

And he was out of his mind on drugs. It’s insane that he was able to play this and sing.

Down votes from kirk hammett 😅
And this, my friends, is thrash metal in its purest form... I can't describe how much I love it
2:07 it’s so nice to hear that bend with full distortion
The riff at 2:25 is deadly
God riff
Tasty as hell
1:03
"Liar" or "Hook in Mouth" would be great!
Lair Is Sick on Guitar!!
Hook in mouth have sick tapping solo
always excited to see you cover songs because theyre always fuckin amazing
It is 2016 and this song still kicks ass! Well done my friend!
Can't believe how hyped this gets me. Dude you are literally a wizard
Why the hell did you melt my face off?
Some of the most bad ass riffs ever!!! Can never pick my favorite one. Been a fan for years and still can't single one out that I like best hahah
Bloody awesome! \,,/
And extra points for playing it on a Jackson \,,/
Simply awesome. Blown away. Hails from Bangladesh.
Dude I could watch your shit all day! You are the jedi of Megadeth songs....
If I can’t write half as good as Dave I’d be happy this man’s a genius
Dude! Your playing is amazing!
Looking Down The Cross and Chosen Ones please!
Best guitar cover I have found of this song on youtube thus far
Here I am on another one of your videos, late to the party by more than 2 years, and I am absolutely blown away. You are a wonderful talent. Keep it up!!! \m/
That was awesome bud! Dave plays those sweeps chord style, so you have him beat! Kick ass! Points for the awesome shirt too! \m/
Your tone is sick. What effects are you using?
holy wars!! please!!!!
+Dave Mustaine I think my next cover will be a Symphony X or Death or Sylosis or Warbringer cover or smth along those lines ;) Done enough Megadeth covers lately :D
Ristridi your next megadeth one should def be holy wars then
Maybe! Can play 90% of the song since a few years, but the clean solo is still killing me.
Ristridi yeah i bet!!
lol thats a great picture of dave mustaine
Pretty fucking amazing. I hope to get on your level one day

Please make a cover of dystopia. I'd like to see your take on Kiko's solos
+Wilander Mascrenhas Not too impressed by the new album, idk if I'm gonna do one from that CD. ;)
+Ristridi Conquer or Die is pretty epic i guess:D the classical guitar part is so good.
I thought he was cool until he said he wasn't impressed by Dystopia.
ahhaa dystopia kicks so much ass
Yeah i too think kiko is not that good
Ahh, metal groove
Very mean tone! Nice!
This cover makes me understand what Mustaine really meant when he said that he wasted a lot of great riffs on this album. The guitar on its own is great, but the overall mix and production job doesn't do the whole deal justice!
my last words?
Where did you learn guitar so well? By Mustaine himself?
Awesome taste in music and killer playing🤘🏻
Love the channel👍🏻
Please give us a few more details about your equipment and your recording settings. Thx!
+R1ffm4n Maybe I'll do a video about it ;)
damn dude, great cover man and it's amazing how you were able to tab it out since the album's production is so bad!
Subbed!
Dude that 1st solo is fucking amazing!!
I clicked to see if u could do it....u delivered bro!!!! Awesome !!!!

Fuckin love it mate. Another one of my old favs.
Outstanding playing 🔥🔥🎸🔥🔥

Awesome cover!
Also that’s a pretty sick guitar. 🤘
Looking Down The Cross and Killing Is My Bussiness!!!! Please!!!! Great Cover!!!!!
Awesome job of killer song
Mad to think they did all this on heroin. No one else like them and don’t think there ever will be
'Speedballs' apparently. As Junior put it, "It was great! The heroin helped you come down off the cocaine. We forgot that everyone died from it. We forgot that part."
@@AHighlander wait cocaine then heroin? Damn they were hitting hard.
Enjoyed every second!
Everyone loves the power cord intros!!! \m/
I wish I could play as good as you... damn bro you killed that shit
Amazing great work
Awesome work !!! \m/ !!!
Hey Mich,. A pretty Stellar piece of work as always . Hope all is well Brother. Take Care & Be Safe..
Bro you are a fantastic guitar player
Amazing

Hello bro excellent cover, what model is your guitar jackson? Yeaah lml
woow! amazing!!:D Thanks!! you are a genious!!! greetings from Argentina!! Aguante megadeth!
awesome lead work in this, so tech so evil
I wonder what Dave and Chuck thought about each other
Geil gespielt ! Ich wünschte, meine Spieltechnik wäre so ausgefeilt !!
Viele Grüße aus der Pfalz !!! :-)
This dude kicks ass! 💪
absolutely cracked
Any tips on the riff at 1:24? I can't even play it slow. Are you doing upstrokes on some of the power chords or just the mutes?
hey that riff is really complicated to play indeed! At the "partially muted" part I usually mute the downstrokes and play the upstrokes open. It's something in between a mute and a ghost note though, it's really hard to describe and it took me a long time to get it flowing with the song. Really twisted part
Appreciate your response Ristridi but I still don't understand lol. Every cover I have watched, the person plays it effortlessly and it looks like they alternate every note. When I attempt it at snail's pace it still sounds disjointed and wrong.
Sooo Gooooooood!!!!! Just Amazing
Amazing!! Do you have any tabs for this song?
Sos un Grosoo AGUANTE MEGADETH..... saludos desde Argentina
You kinda look like young Corey Beaulieu from Trivium (like he does in the Like Light to the Flies video). Also, nice playing, nice shirt
Hey man sweet cover, very cleanly done! How old are you if ya don't mind me asking, I'm 15 and been playin for 3 years and you'd kick my ass at this song any day of the week lol
wow! great job!!!
2:25 that riff though, mustaine is a genius
El mejor guitarrista de todo RUclips
Nice tone, bro!
Excellent!
Very good! Say you don't happen to know why the first 2 albums are tuned like a quarter step down do you?
I think I once heard Mustaine say that this is because he didn'T want people to be able to play it (cover it ) haha
+ristridi haha classic Mustaine
@@Whiplashed yeah haha
Woow amazing, can you do Skin o' my teeth? please :b
Do you have the tabs for this? the ones i found weren't accurate at all lol
Man you are killing it latley... Plz some Death covers..
You rule hard.
Does your guitar sound very good, what guitar pedal do you use?
How about scavenger of human sorrow by death?
Yessssss! Fucking awesome job man
