      You mentioning speed and then slow songs having melody.
      Megadeth has a ton of melody, even more so than Metallica does.
      It's the small nuances and melody beneath the "visible part" of the songs that make the songs so great.
      About the drumming. Lars can't even tune Gar Samuelson's kit, let alone play it or try to play like him. He was just a one of a kind drummer.

      The difference that each version makes is that one became an icon, Metallica's. That's why it is more digestible and longer, with more long solos, one that has the flavor of Dave and another the flavor of Kirk. Simplemente el TFHSb Is exceptional.

    The speed, the progressions, the timing changes, the riffs, the melodies... They are unique in an eccentric way!

    I do like the slow part in "The Four Horseman and the solo Kirk played in that section. We all know Mustaine wrote the main riff and is a pioneer behind the some sick soloing using the amazing hammer and pull-off stretches. Dave Mustaine was shredding way back then. A Metal icon indeed.

    For me it's the Four Horsemen all day, but IMHO it's not a real fair comparison simply due to the fact that one is much faster and shorter and thrashier than the other (even though they are basically the same general songs). I think it just depends on your preference. Dave's version definitely has more of that punk/thrash vibe going whereas Metallica's version is a much more refined masterpiece, let alone much longer and has more solos. It's sort of like comparing a Mercedes to a Dodge IMHO.

      @cerebralfailure8804 Pƙed 5 lety +1

      I have a couple comments to make, first of all it was like a 24 hour bus ride they sent Dave on after kicking him out of the band, it was from NYC to LA on a Greyhound bus, to add an additional insult to it they then call up Kirk Hammett of Exodus at the time and flew him out to join the band, so Kirk was probably in New York before Dave even got back to LA, second I agree with Wolf about Metallica's early albums, for one the band as a whole had a level of cohesion in it that, due to Dave Mustaine's control freak attitude, Megadeth didn't really attain until their album Rust In Peace, not that Megadeth's earlier albums weren't great, they just didn't have the cohesiveness of the early Metallica albums, probably due to the the personnel changes and addiction issues within Megadeth and competent was probably the best word you could have used to describe Lars' ability on drums. I would really like to see SIstah react to some Tool songs, I would recommend starting from the beginning with them and take her through the evolution of the bands sound, say a track or two off each record starting from the Opiate EP, and by the time you make it to the end hopefully the new album will have been released by the with you guys mixing in other bands in between, I would recommend the tracks Part of Me and Jerk Off (live) off of Opiate and go from there

    okay but you left out that Dave Mustaine had no family, and he saw Metallica as his BROTHERS... "brothers" who didn't even have the NERVE to say, "Hey man, you are gonna need to get some help with the drinking or we can't keep you in the band" and offer him some support/help. just woke him up one morning, kicked him out and sent him packing. no explanation. also, "Brothers'', who when Cliff Burton died, did not even have the DECENCY, (as Cliff passed not long after Dave got kicked out) ... to CALL HIM, even out of respect of the relationship they all had at one point and SHARE with him the bad news, while THEY had each other for support. No, Dave found out from a 'music Journalist' that one of the guys he saw as a *Brother* was just violently killed, and not one member of Metallica ever even contacted him. NOW, do you see why it led to such a dark, bitter, angry place for Dave Mustaine??? oh, and just so you know... it was DAVE, who first came to a place in his life and reached out to Lars to tell him that he FORGAVE HIM for everything.

    Gonna be real here. Megadeth any day of the week. Dave Mustaine is just a badass. He had every song he wrote stole by Metallica, kicked out of his only "family" 2600 miles from home when they were just about to make it big. He had to get a bus home with no food, money or water. Then he had to spend about 6 years making band meanwhile watching his from friends become the biggest band in the world. I think most people would kill themselves years before he started megadeth

    Not really fair considering that Dave was not allowed to use a lot of material due to legal conditions. Mecanix was a weaker song...still love it though. Most of the lead guitar riffs were Dave's on the first Metallica albums. Rhythm was written by James. I only like the 80s Metallica albums, straight thrash. Kirk is still one of the greatest guitarists around and was the first to contact Dave to heal the rift between the two bands.

    While I will always give Lars his due as a solid recording drummer... Dave did have a much better drummer for his first and second outing. You can't go past using a Jazz drummer when speed and technical ability are required and Dave made a fantastic musical choice when he hired Gar Samuelson!

    These two songs were precisely what prompted me to create a playlist which I called "MegaMetalldetHicA" - which you can probably guess is a hybrid of the two bands' names mashed together, and the playlist featured songs by the bands in alternating sequence.
    The alternating/random caps are to reflect the logo (which I also mashed together), retaining the capital M and H book-ending the Megadeth logo, and the "lightning bolted" M & A of Metallica.
    I opened my "mix tape" with Mechanix, followed by The Four Horsemen, and the rest of the mix just went randomly from there in a Megadeth/Metallica sequence of songs.
    I could not even begin to guess how I arranged them, save for some special editing of specific songs that were cross-mixed with other songs...
    If you're interested, I uploaded a sample of how I mixed tracks which were already previously crossover'ed with other songs on their original albums - for example, how Into The Lungs Of Hell fades out as the soft jazz intro fades in for Set The World Afire (Megadeth), or how Fight Fire With Fire is abruptly ended by the commencement of Ride The Lightning (Metallica). Back in the 80s, long before PCs and editing software, I had to to do some fancy editing to separate songs that crossed over one another in that manner, or that had abrupt endings. But the mix you'll hear in my video upload is the "cleaner" and more professionally-precise effort with the benefit of proper editing software (and years of experience, much of it gained by trial & error, lol).
    The one thing I did not include in the modern mix is the repeated explosions at the beginning of Set The World Afire, lol. Perhaps one day I'll remix it to include that effect?
    All this, all because of these two specific songs (Mechanix and The Four Horsemen).
    :-P
    So, for your listening pleasure, I present :
    MegaMetalldetHicA :
    INTO THE LUNGS OF HELL / FIGHT FIR WITH FIRE / SET THE WORLD AFIRE

I enjoy the fact that your approach is different from other music reaction channels; others just seem to be "play song" youtuber goes "ooh, that was good....well, see ya next time!" I love that yall give background information and analyze the songs and your reactions. Wolfkain taking the role of Metal Historian works out well in this format.
    Having said that, in this video he mentioned that he felt that Metallica lost the "the song is a journey" attribute in their later works. I would like to see yall react to All Nightmare Long (from Death Magnetic), Halo on Fire, Murder One, Dream No More, or Spit Out the Bone (from Hardwired to Self-Destruct). IMO, those are their strongest offerings from their past 2 albums. Halo on Fire is my favorite of those examples and really give that "this is where the song wanted me to be" feeling by the end of it.
    Also, to repeat everyone else....do Tornado of Souls. Favorite Megadeth song ever. Keep up the great work!

      No offense to megadeth but i don't think it reaches out to that kind of epicness That Metallica or Zeppelin had.
      Both John McIver and Lonn Friend named Metallica as the led zeppelin of this/our generation. And i just gotta say DIXIT. Because is as simple as that.
      They were both Vanguardists. And all of the bands of their time were expecring their next move...and when they all thought they got them by the balls just then is when they MOVE ONTO ANOTHER THING and you found yourself with your hands empty. Plus they were both killer bands on stage. Only by looking MSG 73 or paris 68 or Seattle 89 you'll see my point.
      Which concert OF THAT MAGNITUDE have Megadeth? None.

      I’d have to disagree. I’d say Killing Is My Business is a solid bronze medal (Peace Sells and Rust In Peace are better)

      KIMB is my 2nd favorite album only behind SFSGSW, theres only a couple of good songs on peace sells imo

    There is actually influence from Sweet Home Alabama in the song Four Horsemen if you pay close attention...

    The covers would be fun.
    It's Electric by both bands.
    The live version by Megadeth and Sean Harris on vocals is batshit insanely great.

    Love Megadeth and Love Metallica, but show her some Metallica Speed! Disposable Heroes, Blackened, Dyers Eve, Battery, Damage Inc., fight fire with fire! Love the videos btw!

    Great video you two. Both versions are amazing. I'm proud to be a fan of both Megadeth and Metallica at the same time. It's sad that people have to argue over who's better. I love The Four Horsemen, but Mechanix is just better to me. Dave's vocals work better with it. But man, Metallica and Megadeth are just incredible. I would love to see more Versus videos with Metallica and Megadeth. Peace \m/
    PS: I recommend Enter Sandman (Metallica) VS Symphony of Destruction (Megadeth)

    When you expose her to shreders make sure you show her YNGWIE MALMSTEEN - Far beyond the sun!.... that one is a MUST ..
    your reactions are awesome and very interesting , i like the fact that she's new to almo9st every band and you show her the way to Metal and that we get to watch your journey ...that makes me revaluate this amazing music i've been listening for almost 30 years now...thank u for that

    Just going to throw this out here: *_Nevermore_* - _Born_
    The guitarist/song writer, _Jeff_ _Loomis_ , audiotioned for Megadeth before _Rust_ _in_ _Peace_ , but was ultimately deemed too young to join the band at age 16.
