Most of the time you hear crazy lead guitar from the 90s it's Marty Friedman. He uses a lot of wide intervals and pre-bends and stuff to make it sound more exotic. It's pretty easy to tell the difference. That was Dave's solo at the end though. Dave's a lot less precise and clean, has a lot less bottom end in his tone, plays more traditional licks with a lot of speed picking.
Marty is amazing but the raw thrash feel you get w Megadeth is all Dave and he by no means is a slouch, just take Holy Wars, The Conjuring and countless others as his soloing masterclass examples. He's the ultimate riffmaster. Dave always played with avant garde guitarists but they are found in the dustbin of metal history after leaving the band, Megadeth is Dave personified
@@SamKhan-kb3kg I was aiming for a more clinical analysis of Dave's style. It doesn't mean it's not good; it's just what it is. I'm not sure why you needed to dump on his lead guitarists. Several of them are still highly regarded in the guitar community, and Marty is certainly still creating great music.
Marty Friedman has played solos in many Tourniquet songs too. Tourniquet is a band that really should be checked out by Vin and Sori. It's a Christian band and has been around since 1990 and still exists. Marty played most of the solos in their Where Moth And Rust Destroy (2003) album and has played guest solos before (1996 The Hand Trembler) and later (2011 The Maiden Who Slept in the Glass Coffin) too. For that 2003 album they didn't have a guitarist so the drummer played all the rhythm guitars on that album and they got Marty Friedman and Bruce Franklin (from Trouble) to play the solos.
Tourniquet is an amazing Band, and you wouldn't know they were Christian unless you analyzed the lyrics. One of the few Christian bands that secular audiences could listen to without feeling weird about it.
Take No Prisoners off of the same album is basically pure heavy thrash metal from start to finish. Riff and riff after riff. I'd recommend that one if you want more of the feel of the end of this song.
One of my favourite also so this is first Megadeth song that i learned to play with guitar compleatly (riffs only). I can still play it by memory becouse there are so many riffs to learn and memorise that it is almost impossible to forget about it ever :D.
This song is based on a book series called Master of the Five Magics by Lyndon Hardy. The trilogy of novels follows the journey of a young mage apprentice as he sets off to, fittingly enough, master the five magic systems of his land. The magics themselves are Thaumaturgy (sympathetic affectation of matter), Alchemy (transformation/transmutation), Magic (enchantment), Sorcery (ensorcellment/illusion) and Wizardy (demon summoning). I read the whole trilogy a few years ago. It's pretty fascinating overall, though the second book gets a bit confusing and long winded at times.
@@robert559 I like Killing is my Business.. a lot, not 100% sure if it's a masterpiece though. Not a big fan of So Far so good so what. It's been a while since I don't listen to Countdown..don't remember it was that great.
@@Morbidous I honestly like KIMB, but aside from two songs and obviously Mechanix it's hard to remember them, because of course it was written hastily. Also SFSGSW, aside from In My Darkest Hour and probably Liar and 502, I don't know, I don't have much memory. That was a sort of transitional album, too. But yeah Peace Sells and Rust In Peace absolute bangers.
I love that you guys love Megadeth so much. One thing that's missing from the RUclips experience is that when you have the album, along with the lyrics they tell you who playes each solo. So just in case you wanna know, Marty Friedman plays all the solos except the last one which is Mustaine. When you can follow who plays each solo it really helps you identify each guitarists style and sound. A perfect example is Hangar 18 where they take turns. It's awesome!
Megadeth rocks, and anything from the Rust in Peace album is amazing. Actually, I like this lineup of Megadeth the best, with Nick Menza on drums and Marty Friedman on guitars.
One of my top five songs from this legendary album that came out when I was in middle school... You should check out Dawn Patrol from this album, it's just bass, drums and Dave singing in this weird British styled voice, lol! Great song though! Love you guys! 🤘🏻
I was a huge Megadeth fan when this came out. A few days before the album was released, a local radio station played the first 5 or so songs off the album. This was the song that really made me and my friend take notice. And if you know the order of the songs, that's saying something. Not the main part of the song, but the end of it just blew me away.
Vin I can't believe what you said......when you stated that Dimebag and Dave are the top 2 riffmeisters of all time. You are clearly a genius and have my.respect those two guys have always been my top 2 and it was awesome to hear you say that thanks man! Really great song here too.
This entire album is amazing - start to end. Probably, hands down, my favorite Megadeth album. I will say - one of my favorite reactions isn't even the music you guys do - but when Sori responds to something Vin says or does - and she looks at the camera. lol Like when he crushed the can - her look at the camera is pure gold. lol So much love between these two!
The five magics were actually Thaumaturgy, Alchemy, Magic, Sorcery, and Wizardry. Electricity got put in the song to fill a gap in the lyrics. This is the book.. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_the_Five_Magics
whenever i listen to megadeth i imagine a disney villain's musical number, but kicked up to 11. the shit going off in my head could not be and never will be animated or filmed. not many bands can take my imagination for that kind ride. and when you hit mile 2 of your run, when the endorphins kick in, their songs will make you believe you can will your cells to perform outside the laws of physics.
I would argue one of their best performances was "Symphony of Destruction" live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I never realized people south of the border were bigger metal heads than we are. That crowd was lit AF.
metalmaniac 101 nope, rust in piece is miles better than rust in peace, rust in peace put them on the map and even Metallica recognize that megedeth was a rival for them at that time
Hell yeah... turn this up! Great song! Give me alchemy, give me wizardry, give me sorcery, thermatology, electricity... magic if you please. Master all of these, bring him to his knees... I master five magics...
The whole Rust In Peace album is a masterpiece, but this is one of my favorites. And please guys, we need some more Death here, Spirit Crusher or Crystal Mountain would be awesome, Chuck was also a genius and a riff master
People have already suggested these, but from the same album, "Take no Prisoners" and "Rust In Peace...Polaris" are good picks for heavy songs throughout. Another choice would be "The Disintegrators" from the album Cryptic Writings.
You guys would love "My Last Words" by Megadeth. I'm a huge fan of theirs and it's amongst my very favorites by them. Not only that, but it features my favorite solo performed by Dave Mustaine himself. :D Great reaction guys, keep them coming!
All out Megadeth: Take No Prisoners, Hangar 18, Holy Wars...Interestingly, the beginning of this song (the slower bass part) is the first real opportunity to breathe on the Rust in Peace album. The album starts out with Holy Ways, Hangar 18, Take No Prisoners, then Five Magics. All those songs are 99.9 percent pedal to the metal, apart from Take No Prisoners, which is about 150 percent all the way through. They have some really heavy stuff throughout their career, but there was never anything quite like Rust in Peace start to finish. Technical, razor sharp, precise and furious..
Went to see Megadeth back in maybe 2010 it was the 20 year anniversary tour for the album Rust in peace it was a dream come true for me. My favorite album by them and they played it live in it's entirety and other hits of theirs got to see that show with Anthrax and fucking SLLLLAAAYYYERR A great show.
Marty was a great guitarist but Dave's solo at 7:07 shows why he's king . All the other solos in this song were Marty's but Dave's is the one that makes people say HOLY SHIT and forget all the others .
Marty's solos are godlike but i get what you're saying, Dave's chaotic and aggressive solos (Five Magics, Holy Wars, My Last Words...) always gives me goosebumps.
Yeah Megadeth really has a lot of those short moments in their songs that feel like a whole song should be based on that short part. One example is this really nice melodic riff on Burnt Ice (from United Abominations) that lasts like 10 seconds. Check out Burnt Ice from 1.56 to 2.06. I know that's a part of a bigger thing that goes under the solo but that 10 seconds is sooooo good I'd love to hear a full song made out of it. Which reminds me that some bands but AMAZING riffs under the solos and never use those riffs again. Most people probably won't even hear the damn riff under the solo but when you really listen to what's going on under the solos you just wonder why on earth isn't that riff the base riff for a whole song. The ending for Five Magics is one example of those "under the solo" riffs but in this one it doesn't really get buried under the solo unlike with many other bands.
This is an amazing example of how Dave was heavily influenced by motown. The swing is pronounced in so may places. . . . In my short list of favorite songs of all time.
Jeff Waters from Annihilator is the riff master. Dave tried to hire him many times. You should listen more of him and you will understand why! Try "the trend" for example.
Hold on I got another one heavier and faster like that check out Killing Is My Business And Business Is Good from their debut album Killing is My Business and Business Is Good

Dave Mustaine: Makes top 10 Riffs of all time
Also Dave: Uses them in 1 song
Take No Prisoners off of the same album is basically pure heavy thrash metal from start to finish. Riff and riff after riff. I'd recommend that one if you want more of the feel of the end of this song.
Take No Prisoners is AMAZING
Best trash song ever. The remastered has better instruments and bass, but the original has more raw vocals.
The drums on Take no prisoner are murderous!! Dave also spits out the lyrics with such vehemence.
For the lovers of pure thrash metal riffs this is the best music for sure! Less solos and more heavy riffs! hahaha
This !
This song is epic and criminally underrated. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I couldn’t agree more
I agree.kicks butt
It doesn't seem to get the same respect as other songs from Rust..... Its my fav tho
@@alexstorr3357 mine too, super unique track imo. Definitely my favorite from the album and a top from them for me
100% one of their best tracks
Lucretia is also a really good that whole album is fucking gold!!!
Probably my favorite song on the album /,,/
My favorite solo off Rust in Peace
You are close it's PLATINUM!!!!
RUST IN PEACE…POLARIS
Great Song!....although most the album is
Love that SONG. Kick ass jam.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘.
This whole album kicks ass.
A solid fuckin 10.
They won't do anything else I til like next year at this point. They only do requests if you pay them. And their wait list is probably quite long.
So brutal
REST IN PEACE... NICK MENZA
Wake up dead - megadeth
Take no prisioners- megadeth
You must do Take No Prisoners. That song destroys everything in its path.
This is the original mix and master of the song. Whoever shared the link, kudos to you sir.
When I first heard Rust in Peace, this was my favourite song for the longest time! also, one of my favourite Dave Solos (along with My Last words)
MY LAST WORDS. my favorite SONG off that album. Kick ass SONG.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
One of my favourite also so this is first Megadeth song that i learned to play with guitar compleatly (riffs only). I can still play it by memory becouse there are so many riffs to learn and memorise that it is almost impossible to forget about it ever :D.
Megadeth have the best solos in Thrash Metal, period!
Followed closely by Testament.

Good song my friend
Megadeth released 2 masterpiece albums, and both included the word *Peace* on their title.
Rust in Peace Sells, but Who's buying?
I think you mean 4 masterpiece albums

@@robert559 Whatever 2 other albums you have in mind I'm sure they aren't as good as the 'Peace' records.
Dave tried to recruit Dimebag but Dimebag wouldn’t join without his brother and Dave already had Menza.
Nick Menza, the beast!
Probably annoying to hang out with, but what a pro on the kit.
This is true and a shame but Nick Menza was phenomenal
Menza is a better drummer anyway. Megadeth with Dave and Dime would have been sick though.

Maybe I like poop :) this is the internet ;)
One of the best metal songs imo
this song is so so good, I do agree with what you say. Wish they would go all out for longer periods of time.
You know those bands where every song rides the same riff from beginning to end? Megadeth was never one of them and I love them for it.
One of my favorite off of this masterpiece album!
thanks for the video! truly enjoy it! Megadeth rulez!
love this song, I wish they play it live more often-
Sounds like the original 5 magics to me...nice
I was afraid they'd listen to the remaster but was relieved to hear it was the original. The remastered version's vocals are awful.

@@shaunhoughton9261 obviously you hence the comment 😄
This is an amazing example of how Dave was heavily influenced by motown. The swing is pronounced in so may places. . . .
In my short list of favorite songs of all time.
This day we fight. Poison was the cure. 1320. Head Crusher. All bangers beginning to end.
There are a few like that! High Speed Dirt comes in mind. Same speed and heaviness throughout.
Heaviest Megadeth Song! 🤘
Very underrated song. It was inspired by Lyndon Hardy's novel 'Master of the Five Magics'. Pretty book also.
Check out the song Devils Island or The Conjuring live from 86 or 87 they R both really heavy but I believe Devils Islabd is heavier
Jeff Waters from Annihilator is the riff master. Dave tried to hire him many times. You should listen more of him and you will understand why! Try "the trend" for example.
Yea he might not be the best lyricist but maaaaan can he write some good music
Vin is fucking on fire, he needed this it seems :)
Was there more to the book series than the one book? I read it 20 years ago so thought it was all over.
Megadeth - Skin O' My Teeth !!!
State of the art!
Hold on I got another one heavier and faster like that check out Killing Is My Business And Business Is Good from their debut album Killing is My Business and Business Is Good
