In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm returning to the music of Megadeth for the third time. I was completely blown away by the absolute brilliance of Marty Friedman's guitar playing. I also loved the songwriting and chord progressions. Of the Megadeth tunes I've heard so far, this one's my favorite! I hope you enjoy!

The best metal solo ever written
Agreed
100%. One of my 2 or 3 "desert island" albums... He actually needs to listen to more from R.I.P. though. Poison Was The Cure, Lucretia, Five Magics, Take No Prisoners, Hangar 18.... total masterpiece!!!
Emphasis on the word “written”. It’s a composition inside of a composition.
Agreed, it is very Petrucci-esque with the melodies and phrasing ( which is great because he is my favorite guitarist). Its just so well written
Yes.
Nick Menza was such and incredible drummer. RIP
Yeah, so tight, but so much swing.
I miss him so much
Rust in Peace as we know it wouldn't have been possible with Nick. He was absolutely the most perfect drummer for this album and that's just a fact. Nick was unique in many ways and that's why destiny landed him with Megadeth at the right time to make this masterpiece. RiP Nick, we miss you but you gave us plenty to remember you by
Nick was one of the best metal drummers in my opinion. I have difficulties listening to non-Menza eras. There might be good songs outside of Menza era, but I won't usually re-listen those tracks, because the others don't have enough "air" between the beats.
Gostei muito do seu jeito de reagir 👏👏👏. Gostaria muito que vc reagisse ao clipe de Something Bealtiful do cantor Brasileiro Gabriel Henrique que ele lançou em seu canal oficial no CZcams , agradeço dês de já obrigada
Lucretia has an incredible progression too, from the same album
Yeah it does. Very unique melody.
I think this riff is the best on the album.
It's my second favorite Megadeth song after Tornado of Souls. It's such a fun little song.
Love Lucretia 🙌🙌 and what a solo
Lessons learned as guitarist. Killing Road. Lucretia then Tornado an evolution
Marty is such an incredible student of music. He keeps getting better.
Totally agree.
Marty brought the best out of Dave,i had the pleasure of seeing this version of Megadeth in 1994, and it's still a top 5 gig in my life
The incredible thing is that he hasn't even been tought in the traditional sense.
He said in an interview that when he writes solos he looks for root notes for each chord based on how they sound,, not based on a scale or anything. Then he thinks of ways from getting from note to note without sounding "boring"
Incredible
Some influences from Ritchie Blackmore to be heard in Friedman's solo, especially Blackmore's solo for Deep Purple song "Highway Star". 6:25 onwards.
Marty`s solo is perfection, goosebumps every time I hear it.
None of the subsequent guitarists were able to play this solo with the same vibe.
I can't understand why many people consider this solo to be the best metal solo. It's okay, but nothing really outstanding
@@FlagerMiszcz Because it fits the song 100% and is the right combination of emotion, skill and vibe. Are there solos that are more difficult? Yes but most of those are senseless showboating. And the typical thing is, no one is able to play it like Marty. They all play the right notes but they all play them the wrong way.
@@FlagerMiszczI don't get it either...and I play lead guitar and was obsessed with Megadeth in my teens and 20's. To each their own, I guess.
@@KlounAda IMO this is because of Marty's gypsy-jazz-esque right hand technique that lets him pick super hard. No one else gets the same attack and articulation.
That solo is crazy!! Hanger 18 from the same album has 11 guitar solos, shared back and forth between Dave and Marty!!
Hangar 18 is considered by many the best metal solo ever
@@Ghost_2366which one?
@@niallward8885I think that’s the joke 😂
To be honest though, that song especially makes it clear how much better of a player Marty is than Dave. The Dave solos in that song are chromatic unmusical nonsense for the most part. Ofc for me they will always be part of the song, but I think somebody like Doug will pick up pretty quickly that the Marty ones are miles better.
@@karwashblark7499 art has no nonsense. its subjective. One person's art isn't your business. Either you like it or you don't.
The best thing about this legendary solo, in my opinion, is how THEMATIC it is. The fast part at 6:28 literally feels like being inside of a tornado that’s becoming stronger and stronger. It’s amazing.
It's also fuckin good ❤
Rust in Piece was Magadeths breakthrough album. Marty was a huge part of that. He brought melody to the band that wasn't there before. In Dave's own words..." Marty can play circles around me". His clearity and definition are very distinct. 30+ years later that solo still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. Really glad you enjoyed it Doug.
I consider “peace sells” to be their breakthrough album. Rip is their best album though. Megadeth had made a pretty strong name for themselves by the time RIP dropped. Rip was a “highly anticipated” album because of the success of the previous 2.
*clarity, but yeah 😁
@@thatsamazin- agree
Agreed!!
peace sells.....???????????
Marty plays so eloquently at such a breakneck pace. The ferocity is there but it's still gripping and beautiful too... not just shredding, he actually captures the essence of the song. Just beyond unbelievable.
Same thing that Jason Becker has in his solos. Makes sense as they were bandmates and are buddies :)
Marty is a shred master, but even beyond that, he just plays so tastefully .. his style is so enjoyable to listen to .. when he isn't shredding, he is playing so melodic and tasty .. always a joy to listen to Marty play.
Not only shred, but bending master
@@Branco-xi9nf - Indeed, such a gifted talent with a particularly unique way of playing as well. I love his works Jason Becker, another extremely gifted talent.
Agreed, anyone can shred, but not many can compose somehing great with their skill. Matry is a perfect example of that.
Wouldn't change a thing about Dave's voice. That's what Megadeth is.
It is what it is...great band but Dave and what comes out of his mouth are his own worst enemy
I actually think that Dave's current voice is awesome. It's like 1000000 grit!
I might actually like megadeth if they would've gotten a good vocalist from the start
Agreed. Absolutely love Dave’s voice.
@@c0hink176 Go listen to some more Dadtallica
He needs to react the whole album. One of the greatest musical works in art history.
An exaggeration if I ever seen one
@@Littlemangoneinsanetop 10 metal album of all time easily
@@matthewstarkey7665 Maybe. The op said a different thing though.
@@Littlemangoneinsane oh yeah i just wanted to add something
A Metal Masterpiece!
Dave is a genius, whether you like his voice or not. And you will eventually like his voice too because it's the only voice that fits Megadeth. And once you understand that you'll love it. And you are starting to understand it already I believe.
Sorry, but I disagree. Dave is anything but genius. He's a decent musician at best, whose ego proceeds him. His collaboration with other musicians is what makes the band., but he has yet to learn that.
@@johnmacdonald3319 let me guess you think Kirk Hammet is the best theres ever been.
Idk man, hearing Troy from Mastodon sing Holy Wars was pretty damn good.
@@MrCopenhagen113 I wasn't talking about Kirk Hammett. I was talking about Dave Mustaine. My thoughts on Kirk Hammett are irrelevant to my thoughts on Dave Mustaine.
@@johnmacdonald3319 so I hit the nail on the head then.
The entire song is just perfection. A Masterpiece of metal riffs, and just the progression and aggressive energy within it is something to behold. And Dave's singing works out for it.
One of my favorite Megadeth songs. The guitar solo on this song is epic. 🎸🤘
I failed my drivers test twice. On my third attempt in my Dad’s Red K-Car (Canadians will know) with a 1000watt Kenwood stereo I waited for the instructor in the parking lot cranking this. It is the reason I passed
Dave Mustaine is the Bob Dylan of heavy metal. Can’t really sing but writes great songs.
bob dylan can't sing ?
@@wockeejabba1233 Listen to his music
What? Dave is an amazing singer and interpreter. Not the typical metal singer, so he stands out!
@@wockeejabba1233 no, not at all. Have you ever heard the recordings of the "we are the world"? It took like a bunch of tries until they got something usable because he couldn't for his life reproduce the melody
@@Paulnap He has a unique voice that fits Megadeth perfectly, but we all know that he is not a "good" singer from a technical standpoint (he never wanted to sing in the first place). But vocal quality barely matters in thrash metal to begin with.
This video is gonna do so well. People love watching other people react to Marty’s solo on this song. One of the best constructed solos in all of metal. Your reaction and insight, as always, was great as well!!
Yeah...but the two black guys in Las Vegas doing a good bit of metal reviews are hard to top...especially on this song.. and anything Tool shows out on...which is a pretty good list.
Hangar 18. Marty's solos had so many twists and turns. Gotta check it out.
Agree!
With Me! For something post Megadeth.
I remember Marty saying in some interview that he remembers laying down the solo track for this and Dave came in, sat down, listened to it... and without a word just stood up, turned around, and shook Marty's hand.
One of the best metal albums ever recorded. I love the songs, I love the production (Actual bass guitar! Guitars that cut through the mix and aren't overly-distorted! Punchy drums! It's the polar opposite of ...and Justice For All, lmao), the melodies are on point, the drumming is on point, and Marty just melts your face over and over and over again in almost every song. Just incredible musicianship from every dude on the album. This used to be my warmup in my earlier years of playing, where I would run through at least the rhythm sections of every song to get ready before practice or a gig. Hell, I still love playing these songs; they're timeless! Every time I relearn the lead in Tornado of Souls, I end up playing it like 50 times in a row, lol. It's just so catchy and so much FUN to play.
I get the difficulty with Dave's vocals, though; it's a bit of an acquired taste.
Dave's voice is an acquired taste for sure. I've been waiting for you to do this song. That solo is beyond amazing!
You can acquire a taste for poo if you eat lots of it
But it works. I mean can you really picture any other lead singer playing Megadeths songs? Dave’s even admitted himself he never set out to be a lead singer, but I’m so glad he did. Long live Mustaine/Megadeth
Can you really even say Ozzy is a great singer? But it works. Dave’s voice is the same. It works.
And Lemmy@@joelmacdonald6994
@@Erichmustaine88 I could see Russ Anderson former singer of the band Forbidden singing in Megadeth. That's about it.
It's tough to change vocals in a band because it completely changes the band's sound unless you find somebody who can really tap into the former singer.
I saw Marty Friedman and his band from Japan open for Queensrÿche last year and his music was insanely mind blowing! I even got the chance to meet Marty, he was so cool and humble. Such a great show!
This album, this song. That made me fall in love with Thrash and with Megadeth back in the days. Mindblowing!
Good Mourning/Black Friday is exquisite. Beautiful guitar playing. Ever changing journey. Complex composition.
"The guitar is blowing my mind"... even before the guitar solo lol... I love Marty.
This song is something special, literal lightning in a bottle
To make this solo even more impressive, Marty improvised it. Supposedly it was the very moment Dave knew he made the right decision brining him in.
It's so misleading when people say this. I'm sure he soloed over this song several times and had a very good idea what he was going to do before recording. People act like he never heard the song and was listening and said, "on, let me record this guitar section here".
The guitar section is already great, we don't need to mention things with no proof that don't make much sense to make it seem better...
@@tommypenisfingers You may be right. Memory is a weird thing. I asked Grok (A.I.) where that story came from and if it can confirm if it's true. This was the response. Doesn't really confirm or deny but who knows.
------------
The story of Marty Friedman's improvised solo in Megadeth's "Tornado of Souls" has been mentioned in various interviews and articles over the years. It seems that the most likely source of this story is an interview with Dave Mustaine himself.
In a 2010 interview with Guitar World, Dave Mustaine talked about the recording of "Rust in Peace," the album on which "Tornado of Souls" appears. He mentioned that when Marty Friedman finished recording the solo for the song, Mustaine came into the studio, listened to it once, and then shook Marty's hand without saying a word. Mustaine said that it was at that moment that he felt Marty was the right guitarist for the band.
It's worth noting that, as with many stories in the music industry, details may have been embellished or changed over time. However, the core of the story appears to be rooted in Dave Mustaine's own account of the recording process.
@@dmnguitarist I understand that. Dave liked the finished product and knew he made the right choice for a guitarist. I don't doubt any of that. But do we just think Marty never heard any of the album, which he helped compose, before recording guitar solos? I'm just not buying it at all.
I love this album. The solos, the riffs, the rollercoaster compositions, the swing in the rhythmic foundation, the tongue in cheek "F**k you, we're shredding you to hell because we can"-attitude. This is all so much fun.
one of their best tunes, Marty's guitars all over Rust in Peace and Countdown to Extinction are some of metal's best.
I highly recommend listening to 'Good Mourning/Black Friday' its got a lot of different change ups that define this bands song writing Imo
Highly recommended reviewing the whole album.
This is one of my all time favorite Megadeth songs. Stripped down, stright to the point, solid riff.
I understand that a lot of people balk at Dave's voice, but i never did, not even once. What i hear is his attitude, which in their prime, was just venomous. I've always felt that you could literally hear and feel the venom dripping from his lips. Don't know of another singer like him. Perfect for Megadeth. I can appreciate technically proficient singers, but it's really just about connecting with your audience by making them feel your conviction and where that comes from, your soul. One of my favorite vocalists actually.
I've always thought of Dave's vocals to be more punk influenced than anything. He's like a metal Johnny Rotten.
I'm in total agreement with you. Dave's voice sounds just like that sneer that he has on his face at all times. Full on pissed off at the shitty world and dumbfuckery of everybody.
I loved seeing your reaction to such an incredible song. That album is my favorite from the band and I was lucky to see them live with Marty and Nick four times. Subscribed!
Just found your channel tonight, and words can't describe how happy it made me to watch your reaction to this song. I actually teared up a little. Your reactions were just so pure, it was great to see someone hear this song for the first time. I've been listening to this album since shortly after it came out, and it still gets the blood going all these years later! I'm glad you enjoyed it too!
Arguably the best solo in heavy metal history
No
@@adriantrusca1245 Yes
@@adriantrusca1245 actually yes
I'd put this and Painkiller very high up there
rip nick menza
When I got this album and heard this song for the first time, I kept replaying that brilliant solo. That was over 30 years ago and to this day I get the same vibe that I did the first time. Brilliant Marty Friedman.
Everytime I hear Marty's solo, it's like bringing me inside the song, it's like I'm sucked into it.
My favorite part of these videos is watching someone's genuine reaction to listening to some of the best songs ever written. I wish I could go back and remember how I felt when I first listened to these songs.
You need to hear some countdown to extinction and Youthanasia. Dave shines vocally on both of those albums
😂😂
"you try to take his baAaAaAaAaAaAaAalls"
I agree. Especially with regard to Countdown. Can't really speak to anything on Youthinasia. It wasn't my cup of tea.
Something like Foreclosure or Sweatting Bullets are different but good examples of what Dave's voice can do for a song. Might even help contextualize his voice in their earlier material.
Every lead Marty plays on this album is pure magic! ... infinite salutes!
Marty Friedman released a solo album entitled Scenes the year after Rust In Peace. It is phenomenal and you would appreciate the orchestration.
I absolutely adore this song! I got a chance to see Megadeth perform this entire album from front to back once, it was incredible!
Oh that is glorious. Did you wank over them the entire time? Did@Doug.Helvering?
I have checked his Hard Drives and it is EXACTLY as ONE WOULD EXPECT!!!!!
Doug, you REALLY shouldn't click on those links.
Someone has it all recorded.
My favorite Megadeth song and I love a lot of their catalog. Glad you liked it Doug!
I'm glad you got around to this one - I'd be really interested in your breakdown of the musical theory & components that are found in this song
Glad to see you enjoy this one! Also it's nice to see how much research you do on these
Your going to love this !!
The best Megadeth song of all time with the best line up. This song has and most difficult Marty Friedman solo to duplicate. Everyone plays the solo slightly different especially the last part. 🎸
To be fair, so does Marty lol
Timu is the closest. even more than Marty
@@HyunKiMin The closest i heard was Broderick live... the guy was incredible ...
I prefer the line-up on Peace Sells...But Who's Buying. Chris Poland and Gar Samuelson brought something really special to Megadeth.
@@metalinsights9664 i agree, for that era it was a killer line up, Poland had some really great guitar parts that stills amaze me to this day. Very unique style indeed
One of my favorite metal songs of all time. I remember decades ago learning to drive and just always blasting tornado of souls haha.
Thanks for the video, this is one of my favourite song of Megadeth, love it!
One of the best overall albums ever recorded. Every song is a banger!
You should check Bradley's Halls video where he swaps the solos from Tornado of Souls and Hotel California. They both totally work in the opposite song!
Doug, watching your evolution has been awesome. I'd love to hear some of YOUR music! (forgive me if you've already shown where to hear it)
I bet Doug would like the solo of Chris Brodericks in How the Story Ends off Endgame. Hes got major classical influence.
Ah, no one cares about this song or Chris Broderick. Even though I like Marty, people pretend that he was the only Megadeth guitarist 🥴
Dude, in my opinion next to Marty, Chris was the best guitar player that Dave ever brought to the band. Chris Broderick was a phenomenal player in every way, and I was always impressed how he captured the essence of the Rust material, because that's probably the most difficult thing about playing this stuff. I know I was blown away the first time I seen him play live, I was like who the f#ck is this dude?!?!
@@kwantoon I never liked him playing live, lacks something (feel), but Endgame it's a masterpiece of Megadeth!
That solo is amazing 🤌🏻
If you want another great Megadeth song, try Into the lungs of hell, from their So far, so good, so what album. It's what got me into Megadeth.
Dave grows on you. keep listening. It's his genuine expression that will grab you in the end. he really does not care what you think about his voice.
Man, looking at you having fun listening this wonderful song bring me tears 😅
For a guitarist, it's THE song
For context, Marty Friedman was in a band (Cacophony) with Jason Becker (who I know you've reacted to) before joining Megadeth. Both are incredible guitarists, that influenced each other's playing. If you want to hear more of Marty Friedman, I'd recommend Undertow which is off of one his solo albums. His phrasing and note choice is unlike any other guitarist.
That band wasn't very good honestly. Regardless of how good Marty and Jason were on their own.
@@valkyriehive4766 I would generally agree. There were a lot of great ideas and melodies, but some of the playing sounded too much like practice exercises and the vocals don't really hold up. I mentioned Cacophony just to give context on the bond between Marty and Jason.
Great analysis! I would really like you to hear the Brazilian Gabriel Henrique singing Something Beautiful. The music video was posted on his official CZcams channel. I believe you will be surprised.
Up
your reaction to the doble stops 4ths of the solo was precious. Tornado its the continuation of many songs. Like "Wake up dead" give that a read on the lyrics ;) . Love this channel. Kudos Fromn Raleigh Doug!
Hey doug, first time commenting, but always loved your videos, you have covered so many songs i LOVE at this point. However im making a request to see you cover some more of Jason Beckers songs, especially since youre covering marty friedmans music, both of which used to play together in a band called Cacaphony. Opus Pocus, Speed Metal Symphony, or Mables Fatal Fable. Jason was an insane talent taken away from us, and despite that, composed an album entirely with his frickin eyes. i would love for you to give him more attention as every song the dude has ever composed should be in a museum. - Keep doing your thing doug!
One of the best solos ever
Now someone needs to react to Bradley Halls Hotel California/ Tornado of Souls solo swap. It's sick.
What I love most about this song is the way the guitar swirls around the bass which swirls around the drums create an effect that actually evokes the feeling of a whirlwind-indeed a whirlwind that increases in pitch and intensity untill it finally grows chaotic, falters, and dissipates, as tornadoes are wont to do. 🌪️
Great reaction; I think your interpretation of the lyrics is bang on. Indeed, when I split with my life’s first great love, this and ‘In My Darkest Hour’ were the two songs I had, virtually on repeat.
YOU get this song. So many Megadeth songs create these strong images through their music in conjunction with the lyrics, it's why I believe they're so great.
I like to see Megadeth reaction, especially Marty’s solo. That is the one of my favorite songs of Rust in Peace, that whole album actually a truly masterpiece. Hope we have chance to see Marty’s solo album reaction. 🤘🤘KEEP FIGHTING🤘🤘
Reckoning day - megadeth
My favourite song ever, also my favourite band ever. So many people hate Dave Mustaine's vocals....I don't understand it. He has so many voices and his choruses are glory to my ears. The vocals are actually my favourite part of Megadeth. They are catchy, powerful, unique, iconic. Please check out more from Megadeth. Also, check out Death - Without Judgement or Crystal Mountain.
Hey, to each their own. I can't say the same, but it's just an opinion.
His vocals are hit and miss for me. Some songs (Sleepwalker comes to mind) I absolutely love them. Others (like Tornado of Souls) they don't quite work for me. And then even others (Sweating Bullets) they're meme-like fun lol
The problem with his vocals in my opinion is his pitch..it's ok on studio albums but live!? It's often unlistenable...it's not noise music, his lines have melodies and he too often can't sing them at all , it's terrible to watch and a real shame because his lines rock
Chuck Schuldiner was a genius way ahead of his time.
@@julesbrunton1728 It's not just one pitch. Most of the songs on RIP he sings with a very high pitched screecy voice which works perfectly for the album, but every album has a different sound. His vocals have gotten much deeper over time. Check out how deep his vocals are on Dystopia. Even amongst the early albums there is a lot of variety. Check out the vocal range on Peace Sells.
Doug I recently just discovered ur channel and I love it! This was a great video. I know u always break down hit songs, but if ur gonna do another megadeth song, I’d love for u to break down Good Mourning/Black Friday from peace sells. Long song, but that’s when Dave had Chris Poland on lead guitar and his playing always blew my mind. He’s a great blues player. I swear there’s some crazy pentatonic mixolidian lines in his solos from what my ear interprets and I love the sound on that song
Those 4 together was magical.
The more you listen to Megadeth the more you will end up loving all their songs and Dave's voice and overall musicianship. The guy is the godfather of thrash metal and beyond, great composer and guita player. Marty is a music god on his own.
best guitar solo in metal history by far
By far??? LMFAO.....get real bro. There are a ton of amazing metal solos
your video have so much energy and fun, thank you!!!!
Best line up IMO and one of my favorite albums along with Youthanasia, Countdown and Cryptic Writings
Today you have chosen what is considered "The best thrash metal solo ever". The melody, tempo and work of flowing between the scales, together with a incredible technique, sense of rhythm, swing and groove of Marty Friedman that has not yet been equaled in this genre.
I bet lots of us wanna see Doug play some drum 😂😂
I’ve never heard any other guitarist covering this solo and doing it justice while keeping what makes it special, so much soul and specific accents from Marty.
Dude, you listened one of the best metal songs ever and arguably the best meta solo. And the mastermind behind all that is that dude with the "weird" vocals 🤘
I just dont get why some people dont like Daves vocals jaja
It fits Megadeth so damn good🤘🔥
It only fits because it's all people know. But just imagine these songs sung with a grittier, heavier, stronger voice (sure, I'll throw James out there) ... they might be the biggest thrash band of all time.
@@paulgrudowski4383noone else could sing Peace Sells like Dave!!
Best solo ever
The number of amazing guitar riffs on this song is astounding, and they are greatly accompanied by the most amazing guitar solo.
Marty Friedman was also in Cocophany, which is just a pure guitar virtuoso showcase.
I don’t wanna wait 72 minutes damn it!! 😂
Dave's voice is definitely an acquired taste. You get used to it, and because he's the lyricist and write (or at least wrote) from the heart, he sings it with an intensity that another vocalist wouldn't be able to match as well.
it's incredible cause this is the first song i ever heard from them that i could vividly remember
So many arpeggios in that solo! Amazing
I'm still blown away you didn't like Holy Wars :D
Por favor reaja ao clipe de Something Beautiful que o cantor brasileiro Gabriel Henrique lançou em seu canal oficial no CZcams.
Somos do FC dele🙏
Up ❤️🔥
Check out a live set by Septicflesh, it's called Septicflesh Infernus Sinfonica. I'm not a death metal guy but this performance blew me away. The orchestral mix is something you may enjoy.
By far, my favorite Megadeth track! The riffs, the energy, the tension builds....then that solo!! A difficult thing to get the song back on track coming out of, but it's a masterstroke of songwriting that keeps the listener engaged. And when it's all over, it leaves you wanting to stay on that ride. One of the best Metal songs ever written!
Dave's vocals will grow on you after a while. It takes everyone a while to get used to him. I promise!
I’m glad metallica booted dave because it gave us this masterpiece
Nailed it, mate.
Megadeth has been one of my favorite metal bands since grade school. Dave's biography is a great read. His vocals grow on you the more you listen lol, an acquired taste if you will. A few tracks I would recommend:
-Rattlehead
-Mechanix
-A Tout La Monde
-Good Mourning/Black Friday
-Devil's Island
-Wake Up Dead
-Lucretia
Wow wasn't expecting this thanks Doug
I really love this song. It is above all, very musical and very melodic, much more so than the average metal tune. When I first heard the solo way back when it blew me away too, it's very well crafted and fits the tune so well. Thanks for the reaction vid!
Love this Marty Friedman solo and outro 🤘
Great reaction and analysis. Always enjoy Doug's expertise 🤘🏻
I listened to this song over a thousand times in my life. Love to see someone get blowned away by it everytime😅
