Bush was the president and started the , once again fraudulent 1st Gulf War with Saddam in the middle east around the time Dave wrote rust in peace....
@@sytharnia1717 well we got the forrest seasons from them . But I guess nothing official have been stated . Maybe Teemu makes enough money from megadeth that he can pay the wintersun bills required 😁
Best thing about this whole situation is that Teemu gets really good spotlight to show how good quitar player he is. And this also brings Wintersun as a band more out into the public eye. I hope this media time would push Jari from Wintersun to push those new albums forward.
Teemu vs Kiko vs Marty? I’m a drummer, and to me all three are amazing. I can’t tell who’s better. I hope things are going ok for Kiko. I’m also glad Teemu could step in so quickly. Maybe going forward they take turns? Teemu does one tour, Kiko does the next? And maybe Marty will continue to join in once in a while. I’m just glad that Megadeth is still going strong.
Yea none of these guys can bend like Marty. They are amazing in their own right for sure. Broderick was the only guitarist they had that could nail Marty's parts near perfect.
Highly recommend checking Teemu out in Wintersun - 'Sons of Winter and Stars' live in studio, Megadeth is awesome and all but Wintersun is one od the most technically tight bands of all time and one of the most complex - Teemu can shred a 14 minute track whilst doing backing vocals without breaking a sweat 🤘
Dave's interview:"We currently have a guitar player situation, where our current guitar player is a man named Teemu Mäntysaari and our regular guitar player was Kiko Loureiro, Kiko had some issues. He went home and Teemu came in, and people are losing their minds over how things are going right now 'cause we have a really good chemistry together.' According to Mustaine, MEGADETH has been able to change up its setlist a bit as a result of the guitarist switch. "We've got a bunch of songs from our catalog that we're playing, a bunch of new songs too," he said. "We've been able to add a bunch of songs to the set because Teemu was a metal fan. Kiko did not grow up baptized in metal… Like the show we did a couple of nights ago, we opened with 'Hangar [18]' and then we followed it up with 'Mechanix'. We've never done that before, so it's a pretty heavy beginning. And we've added a second track off of the new album with 'Soldier On!', and we're getting ready to add a third." Rock on Teemu \,,/
I’d feel bad if kiko is out of the band because the fill in guy knows more songs but at the same time I’ve seen megadeth play the same songs for like 10 years straight so it is cool to see them switch up the set a bit, tbh I’d love to see them not play symphony, peace, holy wars, or trust ever again
Read between the lines, “Kiko is gone”. Well, i guess it’s for the best. Dave has lost the ability screech, and refuses to get a guitarist to sing for him. So, it’s like watching Kiss these days. Just sad. Maybe James will talk Vito Bratta into a White Lion reunion. Hehehehehehe
I feel like Dave's just being a dickhead. It's disingenuous to say this about Kikko as he was literally in another band called Angra. So, I find it hard to believe he didn't know these other songs. unless he just never learned, which would be a different issue in and of itself.
@@doctorwankensteintv8171 at the end of the day, Megadeth is a platform to increase your optics. You’ll never be more that a bit player by design. The only member who ever stayed far longer than he should have was David Ellefson. And took the brunt of Dave’s addiction, abuse, and vile behavior. Dave the hypocrite fired Ellefson for acting the SAME way he acted before he found god, and his wife got a great prenup. I have actual photos of mustaine after sleeping with a dancer friend of my wife in the 90’s. Everyone who has left Megadeth tells the same story; it’s Dave’s show. You’re just a hired gun. Kiko is lucky this went down the way it did. Every lead guitarist who has left Megadeth has to face the shit talking by mustaine, because being a decent human being never occurs to the guy. I’ve met him on many occasions. He has ZERO sense of humor, and a chip on his shoulder the size of a small sedan. He wrote some fantastic metal back in the 90’s, and one or two great songs sprinkled in between. As a fan, I’ll just listen to the music. Because the man himself isn’t worth my time.
It's so funny that we all end up using the same words to describe Marty's playing.. " exotic". There is literally no other metal guitarist alive who has ever been given that title. Marty IS that far east " exotic" sound. Such a unique treasure that guy. I think we should look at some of Schenker's finest work on your next videos. That guy is another gem.
Funny you mentioned Desert Storm. This album released less than a year before that. I was military during DS and this album was blaring in our barracks when Desert Shield was announced to us.
we won't really know how Teemu is until he does an album with these guys. I'd love to hear that. I really like Kiko for a lot of reasons. But this dude is doing an amazing job on Marty's lines. Marty is still the baseline to measured against, and I think Kiko meets that more so than some of his predecessors. But Teemu is seemingly close if not there too.
Dave’s voice has suffered since he killed cancer, saw him on the Endgame tour and his vocals were great, and I was blown away with the sound of the band, absolutely incredible tone. 👊🇦🇺
He was suffering before the treatment.. He has blown his voice out around 2010.. He's actually improved considerably vocally since his Cancer treatment.. He has said that the difference now is he can't produce saliva the same way.. And needs to manufacture it using hard boiled sweets and honey to keep lubricated.. His clarity is very noticeable compared to the early last decade.. His vocals were sort of blending together then due to his lack of mouth movement and clarity.. Very tight.. Now he's more fully sounding the words out.. You can make out the words better live than on some records now.. Which is a considerable improvement.. The Conjuring for example.. Its hard enough to tell what's being said on the album recording of that song.. But not live.. Dave nails that song to.. He wouldn't dare touch that song a few years ago due to his vocal troubles.. Nows it's a set regular. Does Dave struggle still? Yes.. Of course... He will have good days and bad.. And that's OK. He's 61 years old.. He's been doing this for 40 years.. Its acceptable to me that someone as unique vocally as Mustaine continues to deliver what he can vocally.. There isn't any other band of Megadeths age that is touring as much as they are.. Megadeth tours more than bands half their age.
No metal album can ever beat the songwriting off of master of puppets, no matter how many albums, musicians come and go, master of puppets will be the best.
@@jeestudent103 Rust in Peace outclassed boring MOP, no tracks in Rust in Peace are overlooked and underrated, in terms of songwriting and skill Dave beat everyone in the scene, metallica can have their fame
I woud love to know how the Teemu did pull all this off, how much preparation time he had? Some words also from the guitar tech point of view - new guy coming in. This is just just outstanding. Hyvä Suomi :)
Saw Teemu in MN. The show was so much fun with Teemu. I don't like Kikos jumping around and weird mods to the solos. Teemu played other peoples writings to the style originally prescribed better then any player including Marty. When he played Poland, it was Poland...Marty. it was Marty. Most fun I have had at a Megadeth show. Teemu may develop to the point that Marty would have to study the original solos he wrote. He is really good and the no BS look is refreshing.
Man , Dave did NOT ace his outro solo. Teemu absolutely did a fantastic job. He's hitting the big bends and the timing better and better with each show.
The stage presences of each member in Megadeth is always choreographed. Those guys at Metallica definitely enjoy more freedom when they perform on the stage.
Dave wrote the song based on his experience in Ireland. Look that story up, it's interesting. Then the end lyrics switch to being about The Punisher character.
Great video as always Shred!! must say though, that the conflict isn't ancient at all. It is an occupation driven by land and financial interests. They make it seem complicated so we lose interest in finding out the truth.
I understand people not liking Dave's singing voice. He's not for everyone. But my gosh his voice fits that music perfectly. He can carry a tune - a must for a singer - and he has that gritty quality that works in the overall context of the band. Someone should do Megadeth songs with a Justin Timberlane voiceover or maybe Bob Goulet (sp?) just so folks can see how ridiculous it sounds. James Hetfield didnt want to be a singer either but without his voice it's not Metallica.
This is what I have been hoping for, it Teemu could be there in the next album, and something heavier stuff would emerge. And I read, that Dirk has been in Swedish melodeth band earlier, so he should be capable of doing some heavier drums too.
Kiko is the guy to give Megadeth its spark back and man did he ever. An incredible musician and Father, just an all out really good man. Kiko has to stay in or it could turn to ashes in your mouth......
Agreed. He almost humanized Mustaine. And as many times as I’ve met the man, it is not. Easy. Kiko’s online propping up of this band was epic. And just like Broderick, Young, Friedman, Petrelli, Drover, and even Poland in the early 00’s, it doesn’t matter to Dave Mustaine who you are, how you play, or what you contribute, you’re replaceable. He will NEVER get over Metallica. He will forever treat every Megadeth member as just a hired gun. Kiko is better off.
Holy Wars is about when Dave spouted his mouth off about the IRA conflict in the UK a few decades ago. He kinda generalized it so it wouldn't be so on the nose, but it was based purely on the Ireland situation and him saying some things he shouldn't have said. It's telling that almost everyone thinks of the Middle East when they hear of this song and it had nothing to do with that.
A strangled goose😂 In all seriousness, we grew up making fun of Sweating Bullets because of his voice and what do you know, it's now one of my favourite songs.
Couldn’t tell you who’s better out of all the Megadeth guitarists, but I do know there isn’t a bad one!! Teemu is amazing but nobody can play the Friedman solos like he did himself. This guy however is pretty damn close
Dude he sure has. Do a search for a video of his called 'The best guitarist EVER? | Megadeth's New Weapon'...Then get back to me. When I first read the title of that video I rolled my eyes and was like "Yea whatever"...Then I watched it and holy shit, I think it's true. I don't think I've seen anyone as technically proficient AND melodic as Teemu. It's kinda unbelievable.
He measures up to the task well. I was at this show, Daves solo was intense, i was really lucky he was right in front of me for it. I dont know if he'll be back to Bloomington but I sure hope so!! Ps Dave wasn't putting on a show for the cameras, he calmed the crowd from rioting & stopped the fighting. Lucky Charms kept his cool and handled it like a professional. Will Kiko come back....Kiko has said many times he aspires to be a guitar teacher on Ytube. Who's to say?? Ps Temmu played Tornado of Souls correctly, lol, Im suprized that hasn't been brought up yet...Thanks Mr. Shred! 🤟💀🤟👋🖤🦋🖤 If Kiko decides to move in a different direction, I'll love to see him performing his solo shows also!! Cheers to both Kiko & Temmu🖤💋🖤
This had great audio. I watched a few others of this concert and couldnt hear Dave singing. This one was clear and Dave sounded great considering age and defeating cancer.
I've been watching a lot of Megadeth video's with Teemu and there's no denying that he's very talented but so is Kiko but Marty will always be my fave.
"Something i dont understand" ... "dave we cant understand you" hahahahahahahaaha Subbed! I was rolling. Great breakdown and commentary of one of the greatest metal songs. Subbed, liked the whole 9 yards!
I read an interview with Mustaine around the time Marty had recorded his first album with Megadeth. Dave said that he had learned so much from Marty, technique-wise, ie scales and cleaning up his playing to not be so sloppy. Conversely Dave had taught Marty to be more "rocky" in his approach because Megadeth's music is very different than Cacophony's music. I thought that came out very well in their albums. A combination that just rocked!
When you said "I love how Dave doesent care about keys when he's soloing". I fucking lost it😂😂 Havent laugh so hard in ages. Thank you for the entertainment and greetings from Finland 🤘
Dave sounds like lemme motor head. The ace of spades.. fucken suppressed voice. The new dude pulling off Dave's expectations with discrepancies. Dave.. hey ringworm this is the guitar I want you to play, when I walk here on stage you better counteract🤘😎🤘.
I think 99% people would disagree and HARD. Plenty of people don't wanna listen to MD because of Dave's voice and many complain and wonder what would the band be like with a "better singer". Me? surely not the best singer, but I'm a BIG fan of his voice and think it's one of the main ingredients in their original sound. I love it
dave is an awful singer. you can like megadeth while understanding that. he's a good guitar player, but a bad singer, and that's okay. he's the frontman of megadeth, so he doesn't need to be that good.
It’s one thing to execute playing someone else’s riffs or solos, and entirely something else to have put in the time writing the composition. IMO Chris Poland and Marty Friedman are the 2 best lead guitarist of Megadeth’s past.
You should review some older Voivod, like Dimension Hatross and Nothingface. That is some interesting guitar styles and would be great to learn some theory behind it.
He wrote it while touring in Ireland 🇮🇪 agile the IrA was fighting the English/Great Britain!!! Dave had made a comment that was very unpopular and had to be escorted by armed gaurds!!! It was crazy shit Shred!!! I know you're too young to remember that shit, but it was popping off big time!!!
@@minkorrh I read Dave's biography and he explains it exactly as the guy said. After the concert he wrote the riff and the line "fools like me who cross the sea and come to foreign lands ...". I think he got the idea about holy wars through the incident in ireland but the rest of the lyrics is definitely about middle east
Realistically, assuming that he only had a passing knowledge of megadeth - how much time do you think a guitarist like Teemu would need to learn a full sets worth of megadeth material?
First up, Teemu is amazing. Research this kid. Secondly, Kiko ain't coming back, IMO. He's too talented to be cocooned in Dave's Web for so long. And last but not least, DIRK! Mustaine really won the lottery getting him to join. One of THE best metal drummers of the last 30 years. Puts Scott Travis in the corner. 😊
Lol Dave gets Teemu out the way after the solo. I thought it was still Kiko after I had heard rumors that Kiko had dipped. Guess it's not a rumor anymore.
To be fair no matter whos better at what since dave was jn metallica in the early days growing up they all learned theory in high school, they can all play each others instruments with ease
I understand the new guitarist is learning the songs but jezzzz! He destroyed the acoustic part of the song. He nailed the rest of the solos by the way.
Shred, when you were referencing the key and the chromaticism of the second part of the song, you were talking about it in the original key of E, instead of the whole step down difference they play it in now. I thought you knew everything and now I don't know what to believe.
Teemu lacks Marty's rich and velvety vibrato like a fine wine..that makes a great difference. Apart from that, he's a really good player...better than Kiko who's butchering the solos.
How to properly pronounce Teemu; The E-sound is not the same as in "team" or "emu", it's more like the E in "leg". Draw out the E in leg; leeeg. Then add a T instead of the L; Teeeeg. Then replace the G with an M; Teeeem. Then finally, pronounce the O the same way as in the word "cool" but shorter.
People need to stop trying to figure out who’s better? And start asking the right question because anyone can practice and learn to play another musicians music note by note if you put the effort. The right question would be can He or anyone can create an iconic solo like that?

I think someone is highlighting comments saying there giving prices away , dont think is coming from you? Can you confirm?
Teemu played for Wintersun. One of the coolest and most talented bands around. He gets all of my respect.
Played as in he will not return or as in wintersun is dead and gone I hope not.

Yea none of these guys can bend like Marty. They are amazing in their own right for sure. Broderick was the only guitarist they had that could nail Marty's parts near perfect.
Marty isn’t going back to megadeth full time, unless he gets paid more than what he would be doing currently, he says
Marty is the best out of the 3 but agree all great players but Marty is a master on his axe
I loved kiko in angra but I didn't dig him in megadeth at all, Al Pitrelli was the only one who played Martys stuff somewhat acceptably

It's got such quick slides you have to do to make it sound right, and it's quite hard to do continuously like Dave does on the song.

So "te" from temporary with long e. So tee, then mu. With no gaps.
Just watched them at Aftershock a few hours ago...He kicked ass!!

Couldn’t tell you who’s better out of all the Megadeth guitarists, but I do know there isn’t a bad one!! Teemu is amazing but nobody can play the Friedman solos like he did himself. This guy however is pretty damn close
Marty's first solo sounds middle eastern.. I'm used to the middle eastern influenced music..
Dave’s voice in beautiful
Shreds background: *has old lady vibes*
Shred: *places skull on keyboard* "man cave."
LOL Bro have you even heard Wintersun? this is childs play for him. Wintersun slaps my guy
Dude he sure has. Do a search for a video of his called 'The best guitarist EVER? | Megadeth's New Weapon'...Then get back to me.
When I first read the title of that video I rolled my eyes and was like "Yea whatever"...Then I watched it and holy shit, I think it's true. I don't think I've seen anyone as technically proficient AND melodic as Teemu. It's kinda unbelievable.
@Shredmasterscott, do you think Teemu will replace Kiko?? How is it that he plays more like Marty?
He measures up to the task well. I was at this show, Daves solo was intense, i was really lucky he was right in front of me for it. I dont know if he'll be back to Bloomington but I sure hope so!! Ps Dave wasn't putting on a show for the cameras, he calmed the crowd from rioting & stopped the fighting. Lucky Charms kept his cool and handled it like a professional. Will Kiko come back....Kiko has said many times he aspires to be a guitar teacher on Ytube. Who's to say?? Ps Temmu played Tornado of Souls correctly, lol, Im suprized that hasn't been brought up yet...Thanks Mr. Shred! 🤟💀🤟👋🖤🦋🖤 If Kiko decides to move in a different direction, I'll love to see him performing his solo shows also!! Cheers to both Kiko & Temmu🖤💋🖤
This had great audio. I watched a few others of this concert and couldnt hear Dave singing. This one was clear and Dave sounded great considering age and defeating cancer.
It’s about the troubles in Northern Ireland
I hope rattlehead or skull beneath the skin comes back into the setlist someday. Or my last words!
I honestly think this song goes just accurately with today's situation
I've been watching a lot of Megadeth video's with Teemu and there's no denying that he's very talented but so is Kiko but Marty will always be my fave.
I think the clean arabic-sounding interlude is more based on the gypsy scale, which includes Phrygian elements, but also Hungarian minor.
"Something i dont understand" ... "dave we cant understand you" hahahahahahahaaha Subbed! I was rolling. Great breakdown and commentary of one of the greatest metal songs. Subbed, liked the whole 9 yards!
Not for the money, not for the fame
Not for the power, JUST FOR MUSTAINE!!!
Good stuff for morning coffe for me, thnx
Shred: “Dave always has his pants in a bunch about something.”
Dave: “DUH”
Will we be getting a Powertrip festival review? Would love to hear your thoughts on it
yeah definitely he shreds. . .
Temu got a nice tone, like what I've heard from him so far 👍
That being said, none of them can touch God Emperor Marty tho 🔥
I read an interview with Mustaine around the time Marty had recorded his first album with Megadeth. Dave said that he had learned so much from Marty, technique-wise, ie scales and cleaning up his playing to not be so sloppy. Conversely Dave had taught Marty to be more "rocky" in his approach because Megadeth's music is very different than Cacophony's music. I thought that came out very well in their albums. A combination that just rocked!
When you said "I love how Dave doesent care about keys when he's soloing". I fucking lost it😂😂 Havent laugh so hard in ages. Thank you for the entertainment and greetings from Finland 🤘
4 security dudes were beating up on someone, DAVE saw that & stopped the show. Even got the police to Remove The 4 Dudes.
Dave sounds like lemme motor head. The ace of spades.. fucken suppressed voice.
The new dude pulling off Dave's expectations with discrepancies.
Dave.. hey ringworm this is the guitar I want you to play, when I walk here on stage you better counteract🤘😎🤘.
dave's voice and way to articulate is amazing , best singer ever... in very complex context!
I think 99% people would disagree and HARD. Plenty of people don't wanna listen to MD because of Dave's voice and many complain and wonder what would the band be like with a "better singer". Me? surely not the best singer, but I'm a BIG fan of his voice and think it's one of the main ingredients in their original sound. I love it
dave is an awful singer. you can like megadeth while understanding that. he's a good guitar player, but a bad singer, and that's okay. he's the frontman of megadeth, so he doesn't need to be that good.
If he's the frontman, then he should be good imho. Tho, I guess his biggest talent was his songwriting.@@Celatra
I saw them a couple of weeks ago. Phenomenal.
You guys should hear the whole Rust In Peace disc they did with Chris Poland!
Have you been using the tanning light again?!?!
That crowd looked asleep. I have yet to see Megadeth, but when I do, I will not just be standing there
I only wish the sound quality was even for all instruments, I'll bet they will release official live tracks
It’s one thing to execute playing someone else’s riffs or solos, and entirely something else to have put in the time writing the composition.
IMO Chris Poland and Marty Friedman are the 2 best lead guitarist of Megadeth’s past.
You should review some older Voivod, like Dimension Hatross and Nothingface. That is some interesting guitar styles and would be great to learn some theory behind it.
He wrote it while touring in Ireland 🇮🇪 agile the IrA was fighting the English/Great Britain!!! Dave had made a comment that was very unpopular and had to be escorted by armed gaurds!!! It was crazy shit Shred!!! I know you're too young to remember that shit, but it was popping off big time!!!
You really think so considering the opening riff and the Phrygian that it is? That's middle-east all day long.
@@minkorrh I read Dave's biography and he explains it exactly as the guy said. After the concert he wrote the riff and the line "fools like me who cross the sea and come to foreign lands ...". I think he got the idea about holy wars through the incident in ireland but the rest of the lyrics is definitely about middle east
It was Northern Ireland... and you no idea what you're talking about, neither did Dave.
Troy from Mastodon did a good cover of holy wars and I think he can do a guest vocals for them.
Hard to go in MEGADETH...Teemu did.
Realistically, assuming that he only had a passing knowledge of megadeth - how much time do you think a guitarist like Teemu would need to learn a full sets worth of megadeth material?
Years...
Possibly within 2-3 weeks depending on his
st.1@
His caliber? Two weeks? Less?
He had 48h.
First up, Teemu is amazing. Research this kid. Secondly, Kiko ain't coming back, IMO. He's too talented to be cocooned in Dave's Web for so long. And last but not least, DIRK! Mustaine really won the lottery getting him to join. One of THE best metal drummers of the last 30 years. Puts Scott Travis in the corner. 😊
Yes, best riff ever
Lol Dave gets Teemu out the way after the solo. I thought it was still Kiko after I had heard rumors that Kiko had dipped. Guess it's not a rumor anymore.
Ok. I thought you were about to start an oompah loompah song on the piano.
To be fair no matter whos better at what since dave was jn metallica in the early days growing up they all learned theory in high school, they can all play each others instruments with ease
How messed up this video dropped right before the Hamas attack love you Shred . Someday I hope the only Holy Wars are shred songs 😢
I understand the new guitarist is learning the songs but jezzzz! He destroyed the acoustic part of the song. He nailed the rest of the solos by the way.
Arguably the best Mdeth song of all time.
I still prefer Kiko but Teemu's great. Don't know if Kiko's coming back tbh.
they're still better than metalica after all
first guitar player that i casn feel marty energy
Shred, when you were referencing the key and the chromaticism of the second part of the song, you were talking about it in the original key of E, instead of the whole step down difference they play it in now. I thought you knew everything and now I don't know what to believe.
Teemu lacks Marty's rich and velvety vibrato like a fine wine..that makes a great difference. Apart from that, he's a really good player...better than Kiko who's butchering the solos.
Temu is amazing, but I will wait to see if he something new for Megadeth before comparing him with Marty.
you could easily be in Megadeth SHRED!!!!
I feel like I've read this script before, so I'll just say that if Kiko comes back to the band I'll eat my socks.
No-one has matched Marty. Unfortunately.
Come back Marty!!
RIP Nick \m/
How to properly pronounce Teemu;
The E-sound is not the same as in "team" or "emu", it's more like the E in "leg".
Draw out the E in leg; leeeg. Then add a T instead of the L; Teeeeg. Then replace the G with an M; Teeeem.
Then finally, pronounce the O the same way as in the word "cool" but shorter.
best tutorial out there!
Well, he's no marty
People need to stop trying to figure out who’s better? And start asking the right question because anyone can practice and learn to play another musicians music note by note if you put the effort. The right question would be can He or anyone can create an iconic solo like that?
Nothing against Teemu he's great. I do like Kiko better. No hate, just my opinion.
Hasn’t he played with them before?
Fuck.. he even solo better than friedman almost!
LMAO!
Bullying? I suppose Dave would love to be the next Dimebag.
