  • Believe it or not I planned to make this video today not knowing it was the 32nd anniversary of its release. Some serendipity there or something. :)

    cant believe dave sat down and actually wrote the Poison Was The Cure main riff. that riff is so insane so me.

    I love lucrecia, it's so out of the box. By itself you might not even label it thrash metal. I like how in RIP they were not obsessed with staying sharply within one genre
  • @aaronand1452
    Tornado of Souls still has to be my favorite song. Every riff is really fun to play and the solo is just incredible, too. Marty Friedman was a genius!
  • @ryangreene50
    You could give me 50 years alone in a room with a guitar and I still wouldn't come close to coming up with something like the intro to Lucretia lol. It's so musical yet so unnecessarily difficult to play clean.
  • I personally like the rust in peace polaris riff,very fun to play
  • @calebbean1384
    Rust In Peace (The song) has a few tricky riffs as well. That and Hangar 18 were always my favorites
  • @Zonum420
    This was the album that grasped my soul. The opening chord progression of Hangar 18 still messes with my mind and my fingers. Playing heavy shit on all of those skinny strings? Dave Mustaine is an 👽. Seeing him play live substantiates my opinion. Rust In Peace is the greatest album released by Megadeth by the greatest line up of musicians that ever was a part of this band. All killer, no filler.
  • Nice. Poison Was The Cure was pretty sick, and Lucretia had a lot more going on in it than I expected.

    I've never thought of Hybrid Picking the Poison Was The Cure riff, that could definitely make it easier, regarding the right hand at least
  • @owenc4188
    The whole last bit of Polaris is tricky as hell
  • That main riff of Holy Wars when "brother will kill brother" starts. Imagine that you were playing things like iron man, run to the hills, for whom the bell tolls, power chord riffs, since you started learning the instrument and you see that riff (!) That was an inflection point for me , my mind was blown away
  • @blackinblue11
    Always appreciate your tone effort And LOVE the shirt:))
  • I would definitely say the main riff in ...Polaris, it's just so crazy
  • Thank you for doing that! I'm impressed with how accurate that is. I also love the shirt! That brings back memories!!

    Poison was the cure has a very early megadeth vibe, like first album vibe. It's the kind of riff that you find in songs like Last Rites/love to deth
