Megadeth - Symphony of Destruction (Guitar only)

[@stonethecrow80]

oh my god the chorus!

[@Rendall81]

/wink

[@michaelsumnerguitartuition7854]

One of my favourite metal choruses.

[@fren3zyluvsbs344]

the chorus is underrated as fuck

[@duncanmathers76]

EXACTLY. What a FUCKING guitar part that is, kids 👏

[@NexyOJF]

I love playing the chorus it's actually so fun

Don’t mind this comment, I’m just using them to learn.

[@AlexVinchenzo]

how is it going?

[@hudsonpoll1279]

AlexVinchenzo
Well, I can play the entire solo slowed down, but up to speed is still a challenge coz I suck at alternate picking.

[@firmans12]

@@hudsonpoll1279 same man. I reach 90% of the speed. The rest 10% are just insane / impossible for now. Probably takes a month to master the speed

[@jorgecruz4412]

Friedman is a genious!!!! Super-skilled-out of planet guitar player!

[@lucas_sg]

@@hudsonpoll1279 I think some parts are done with economy picking, or it's really difficult with alternate picking only, like the run at around 2:39/40

[@nothingtoseehere177]

The last thing I wanna see during an epic Marty Friedman solo is a picture of Chris Broderick hahah

[@pipschannel1222]

I was going to say the exact same thing (one year later ;-) )

[@calisoca99]

I like how you can hear the metronone faintly ticking in the background

[@NihilQuest]

It's not a metronome, it's a drum track that got recorded through guitar pickups. Sometimes you can hear how there are more sounds, not just a steady beat.

[@asmo_1929]

Well, you can hear more sounds, but there is definitely a metronome there. The drum track doesn't have that tick on every beat, only the snare every 2 beats

[@blitzmonkey]

I think it's Ellefson's walking bass line. It has a consistent metronome sound in this song

[@VN-hg5yy]

Idk what you mean by the track getting recorded through the pickups, i know putting sound close to the pickups makes it go through the amp

[@iurigrang]

@@NihilQuest I’m pretty sure it’s just bleed directly from the recording room to the amp mic, not through the guitar pickups.
I would be surprised if these guitars don’t have a gate anywhere on the signal chain, the metronome would have gotten lost there if that was the case.

[@BingBongWasheeWashee]

Chorus riff is so catchy and fun to play, in the top 25 best metal chorus riffs ever composed easily

[@tacoconch7678]

Marty's lead tone on this song is so killer! Plenty of bite but super punchy and cuts through the mix perfectly. Love it!

[@mandarbamane4268]

Budget on verse riff 2:50 : 🧷🖇📎📌
Budget on chorus riff 3:29 : 💵💰💵💰🤑🤑

[@ZippyRiffs]

Interesting. There’s a harmony guitar part on both the pre chorus, the 2nd chorus and the last chorus but it’s so low in the mix I never heard it in the full song. Also Marty’s solo sounds massive when isolated. Amazing!

[@ZippyRiffs]

@@caiol0692 That makes sense. Cool!

[@aliskilletman]

The chorus is my favorite part and one of my favorite guitar parts I've ever heard

[@akesson3726]

You take a mortal man
And put him in control
Watch him become a god
Watch people's heads a'roll
A'roll, a' roll
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like the marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction
Acting like a robot
Its metal brain corrodes
You try to take its pulse
Before the head explodes
Explodes, explodes
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction
The earth starts to rumble
World powers fall
A'warring for the heavens
A peaceful man stands tall
Tall, tall
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Just like the Pied Piper
Led rats through the streets
We dance like marionettes
Swaying to the symphony
Swaying to the symphony
Of destruction

[@ozman6602]

The solo on this marty is a beast

[@txhc666]

I love that old school thrash metal crunch of the 80s.

[@jonsi666]

But this was released in the 90s..

[@nastylittlecritter]

eet fuk well, 1992. We weren't very far from the 80s

[@heydavid4883]

@@jonsi666 yes, but it has the same crunch like 80s thrash tones

So Marty’s solo is off the hook... Unbelievable!!!

[@amberburgoon4701]

I’m learning this on guitar and this really helps with the timing on the prechorus 😁

@DigitalPosion yea it is by Marty Friedman

[@hasankilicatan4559]

rough mix with tik tik tik. :-)

[@YusraChannel]

He just record from Guitar Hero 1

[@jamesrockford2626]

I wonder if Kirk could play that solo @ 2:30

[@Canute_]

The thing about Kirk is that every solo, he need to practice more than most Lead Guitarists... But Hetfield could play it easily...

[@jamesrockford2626]

Knut Bjelland Hetfield can't play solos

[@iamawesome6959]

Knut Bjelland hetfield is a rithmic guitar player

[@DOMINATORsChannel]

lol of course he can play it if I can play it don't be too stupid. and @Knut Bjelland hetfield of course cant play it. He says himself kirk is better and he can't shred for shit.

[@jamesrockford2626]

Bahadır Aksoy
kirk can't play as good as Dave never mind Marty. Anyone can play better than Kirk, as long as you have a wahwah and wammy bar u are on his level

[@txrminxted785]

Sounds like someones outro.

[@DigitalPosion]

I know :) just saying you played it nice and its not an easy solo

[@masteroffire5793]

Not as heavy as I remember
