100%. I’ve been a guitarist for over 30 years, I cut my teeth on this album. There’s a lot of great metal out there, but I have to say Rust is probably my #1. Very musical, great lyrics, great song writing, and of course, Marty Friedman. Of note: they remixed and remastered this album in 2004, and I much prefer the sound of the drums on the original. I think both versions of the album are available on Spotify. This one in your video is the remastered version. The snare sounds completely different.
First off, there are 11 solos in Hangar 18. Most are by Marty. Dave has a few during the second part of the song. Second, yes, Megadeth has long intros into many of their songs. Third, you need to check out an older Megadeth song, "My Last Words". It has a great bass line. Not what you might expect. David Ellefson plays bass on both songs. His style worked great with Dave's rhythm tracks. One thing I love about Megadeth is many songs are recorded in the midrange allowing the bass to often shine through, compared to other Metal bands whose songs are all on the bottom end of the guitar.
One of the first things I picked up with this one, is for a thrash metal song, how much groove there is in the bass line, my last words will also be added to the list thank you Metal for the knowledge, glad you enjoyed 💪🏻
Dave Mustaine's Megadeth is a blast of military-precision munitions. The architect of aggression, Mustaine, is one heck of a songwriter. And this album is probably their best, the instrument composition and guitar solos are just . . . *chef's kiss.*
Welcome Viking, I gotta say, annoyed at myself for not listening when in my real metal stages growing up....but also VERY happy I'll appreciate it SO much more now, thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed
@@ExploringTheSmoke (@ronpaul1082) For sure, those recommendations are excellent and far more educated than the most popular 101 recommendations people give to a first-time Megadeth listener, but from a bass perspective, I would say keep Five Magics and add Poison Was the Cure from the same album, but skip Looking Down the Cross (in your no. 1 priority list) and take Peace Sells instead of My Last Words (these 2 from the same album again). On the long term, all songs recommended above are worth listening to, because as a whole, Looking Down the Cross and My Last Words are some of their best songs indeed. EDIT: Oh, very important note! Take extra caution to avoid remastered versions when it comes to any Megadeth, because aside from various mistakes and general bad sound, bass is what especially suffers.
that was a fantastic reaction (and ive seen a few) so glad you liked it . its amazing . i had a tear in my eye watching you hear it . just listen to the rust in peace album (the NOT remastered version) . i hope they go to the top of your play list as they have been on mine since 1990 .
I actually am shocked at myself, especially as I grew up wanting to be surrounded with heavy metal, I guess I went the way of slayer/anthrax when in that region 😂😂
@@ExploringTheSmoke not so bad on this particular song so I wouldn't sweat it but five magics has backing vocals that are key to the song that are completely different and corny on the remaster version .
welcome to my high school years soundtrack lol! it was intense !! megadeth, slayer, black flag... ooof Marty did all the very musical (arpegio-filled) solos and dave did al the shrieking, screaming heavy uber fast ones. the bassist was also a legend in the metal community, David ellifson. Marty was very famous w guitarists, had some solo instrumental albums before he joined that were highly regarded in he guitar community back then. he was a teacher at GIT ( guitar institute of tech) in LA. he still does a ton of masterclasses and still goes into GIT to do some.
Ooooooh slayer and black flag!!! I truly never understood why I didn't "get into" Megadeath, ah well more fun for me now where I'll appreciate it more 😂
The whole Rust in Piece album, bro. Hope you’re not too fond of your face though, cuz it’s going to melt the F off. Best thrash metal album of all time, no debate.
@ExploringTheSmoke , dropped tuning, and deeper growls do not define heavy for me. LAMB of God is heavy and I quite enjoy them, but Five Magics, The Conjuring, and many more are just as heavy, if not more so.
@@profanepersonality I've been suggested five magics as a MUST Listen by a few already so I'm excited for that, and it has to be the original NOT the remastered version 😂
@@ExploringTheSmokeboth are beautifully constructed. It’s a journey. But you also gotta check out Holy Wars (it’s a top 10 metal song of all time) and Tornado of souls ( best thrash solo of all time). I got into megadeth ar 35 and they’ve changed my life!
I know I'll never get to "live it" like if I was born sooner but my catalogue of the bands mentioned are pretty vast, I just oddly overlooked a looooot of Megadeth, silly I know 😂 thank you for commenting and watching,l Lion, glad you enjoyed

I still remember the day that this song from Megadeth melted my entire face off!!!
It was glorious
You luckily got to see it melt my face for the first time 😂 thank you Billeon! Glad you enjoyed 💪🏻
Greatest album of all time. Hands down.
Definitely got some more coming 💪🏻 thank you Steve
Rust is a KILLER album
I can't believe I overlooked it for so long!!

My Last Words is my favorite Megadeth song. You as a musician should appreciate Megadeth because of their complexity. Enjoy the journey
@@mattsabath thank you Matt, definitely something I noticed even with the changes in this, absolutely incredible

All songs I'll definitely be checking out, thank you Ron

Ohhhh believe me I'm staying away from ANY remasters, I heard the remaster of hangar 18 and nearly threw my headphones 😂😂
Excellent reaction. You iust had your face melted off 😂👍🏼👊🏻
MELTED!!! 🫠🫠🤘🏻🤘🏻
You need to do an entire album review on Rust In Peace,, can't believe you've never heard the greatest thrash metal album ever recorded
I actually am shocked at myself, especially as I grew up wanting to be surrounded with heavy metal, I guess I went the way of slayer/anthrax when in that region 😂😂
@ExploringTheSmoke music is timeless...never too late...good luck
I agree. Whole album listen is the way to go
@@TheAvenger1171 very very tempted 😂
Ditto this. Do a whole album reaction. 11/10 album🔥
I love how many times this song nearly ends
And then it just melts your face 🤘🏻🤘🏻
This whole album is a Masterpiece!! Checkout Holy Wars!! And as a Bassist, you need to hear Dawn Patrol and Peace Sells!!
Ooooh are you in for some fun on my channel 💪🏻💪🏻 glad you enjoyed Rusty
The best forever
Yes it issss 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
How the story ends. fires on all cylinders
Thank you Gene! Glad you enjoyed
Please listen to Five Magics!!!
Five magics, added to the list 💪🏻 thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed
Best song on the album imo . The remaster sounds corny so please do the original if you do
@@ronpaul1082 original it is! Annoyed that this was the remastered version, but only found out after the listen 😭

You should be sweaty. These albums were mostly written to be played in front crowded venues of people moshing and head banging.
The best kinds of shows if you ask me 💪🏻💪🏻
The whole Rust in Piece album, bro. Hope you’re not too fond of your face though, cuz it’s going to melt the F off. Best thrash metal album of all time, no debate.
It definitely melted 😂
U luv Bass like me. You'll love Dawn Patrol at the end of this Album
Thank you again Forza, glad you enjoyed 💪🏻
Holy Wars
Oh believe me, it's coming! 💪🏻💪🏻 Thank you concrete
You know mate… there is a return to hangar
Ooooooh...This could be VERY INTERESTING
If you like bass you need to here misa she is a beast and plays in band maid i suggest domination live
Added to the list! Thank you William
"Heavier" 😂😂😂
Lamb of God are by far heavier in my opinion
@ExploringTheSmoke , dropped tuning, and deeper growls do not define heavy for me. LAMB of God is heavy and I quite enjoy them, but Five Magics, The Conjuring, and many more are just as heavy, if not more so.
@@profanepersonality I've been suggested five magics as a MUST Listen by a few already so I'm excited for that, and it has to be the original NOT the remastered version 😂
Ashes in your mouth
Try this song bro
There are many great songs from this Band
Added to the list, along with tornado of souls
I second this! My favorite Megagdeth song. The composition of this song is perfection.
@@destructskater this and Five Magics seem to be ones that keep popping up 💪🏻
@@ExploringTheSmokeboth are beautifully constructed. It’s a journey. But you also gotta check out Holy Wars (it’s a top 10 metal song of all time) and Tornado of souls ( best thrash solo of all time).
I got into megadeth ar 35 and they’ve changed my life!
@@destructskater tornado of souls was already coming, but holy wars will be added too 💪🏻
Now check out holy wars the punishment due to
Oooh you know I diiiiid 💪🏻🤘🏻
Check out Gravitational Constant by Type O Negative, you might like it
Already know it!! Thank you Driver, for kick arse suggestion, glad you enjoyed
you missed so much, Megadeth, Slayer, Iron Maiden , Judas Priest, Metallica, Sepultura ...many classics from 80' 90'

Jay, you're a bloody legend!!!!!! The necessary changes have been made 😂😂 thank you mate
Try " kiss of death" by the band dokken
Thank you Phil, I'll Check them out
@@ExploringTheSmoke yngwe malmsteens song " far beyond the sun" is phenomenal .

George Lynch ,the guitarist of dokken started his own band called Lynch mob. He's a legend amongst guitar players .
@@philgonzalez5953 it certainly rings a bell
I REFUSE to believe you have never heard this
You’re lying
😂😂 I wish iI was!! The only Megadeth song I'd heard up until here was symphony of destruction, I was a maiden, lamb of God, Exodus etc kind of fan
marty friedman is a monster listen to more rust in peace
