Keep it up guys , wish yalls vids were longer......... yal 'll s more entertaining than Netflix. And more informative than PBS........ OH , YA .. YA !!!!!!!!!!

The irony that when Metallica play TFH live, they always skip the good parts in the middle, basically making it back to The Mechanix again.

Keep in mind...this is still by and large mostly Dave's song. That being said, I like Metallica's lyrics better but I prefer Megadeth's overall sound and speed

Major respect to Metallica, but I’m a Megadeth guy and always have been 🤟🏻

Dave Wrote the Riff so technically he wins cause without Dave there is No Four Horseman .

I’m a Megadeth girl too, Sistah. The speed gets my blood pumping. Metallica is cool, but Megadeth just does it for me.

Lars probably wanted it slower because he couldnt play it the way Dave wanted.

Thrash Metal is my favorite music, and I love both Megadeth and Metallica. And Megadeth's songs connect to my "frequency" like nothing else The speed, the progressions, the timing changes, the riffs, the melodies... They are unique in an eccentric way! Dave's music must come from another dimension.. 😈✨✨

"There are two ways you can hear this next song, there's our way and there's their way, for those of you who think this is their way, this song is called The Mechanix". DAVE MUSTAINE

I like Metallica but Megadeth has a harder edge with their songs

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.

MEGADETH !!!!!!! Do good mourning black friday next. Also keep the intros long as you want. They give a proper history to what shes going to hear

Tornado of Souls! Sistah you’ll love it.

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.

She's gotta hear Tornado of Souls!

Lyrics- The Four Horsemen Music/attitude- The Mechanix!!!

Dave wrote a lot on the first album and a couple on the second.

Dave wins either way, they are both his songs

Plain n simple, Dave Mustaine is a song writing legend, waiting very patiently for Good Mourning/Black Friday

I love that she picked Megadeth! That’s the spirit! Mechanix is 150 miles an hour for the whole song. There is something to be said for sheer adrenaline!

This was great! Though I’m more of a Megadeth fan I like the four horsemen more. Another one to do a VS on would be Megadeth’s Hangar 18 and Metallica’s The Call of the Ktulu. They both have a riff that Dave wrote. The opening riff to hangar 18 is the same one in the opening riff in Ktulu and later repeated in the same song. She will go absolutely ape shit over hangar 18. Brace yourself!!!! Better have that bucket of ice nearby. 🤘🏻🤯

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.

For those of you who are new to our channel, we have time codes in the description ;)

I think his bus ride was more like 4 days, not four hours! It was from New York to California. He also didn't have money to eat or anything on the way back. :O

I'm no Metallica guy nor Megadeth guy. I like both bands equally. lol I wonder what that makes me 🤔

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!

Oh yeah! I’m on your wife’s side here dood 🤘🏻😄 Megadeth all day everyday! It’s got to be the Jazz flavour Megadeth has fused in that sped up.. Real music enthusiasts for Megadeth.

I love watching you two share your love of music together. :) Keep it up!

I love this video so much I could pee. This is a GREAT back-and-forth between these two great songs. You both had a bias towards your favorites, and you were both 100% correct. This was amazing to watch & listen to.

@Wolfkain: Song by Anthrax is called "Metal thrashing mad" on their first album "Fistful of metal".

"you're thrashing all around" is a line in Metallica's song Whiplash. Probably written in 1982... maybe.

You guys definitely make the best reactions videos.....really really!!

Love youre channel!! You’re chemistry together!!! Youre open minded comments. Keep up the good work. 👍👍 Thanks.

Gawd...Cliff's baseline is so good. Unmatched.

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

This was fun....i hope you do more

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.

Mechanix existed before Four Horsemen ...

Please react to "Ashes in Your Mouth" by Megadeth!

both are great. I liked the four horsemen solo best but the speed, aggression, and adrenaline filled mayhem of the mechenix makes it the best for me

Oh wow. Just found your reaction videos and now I'll be lucky if I do anything else for the next few days. Thanks for sharing your passion for music!

Mustaine did get credit for that song though and he's listed on Ride the Lightning for some things too i belive.

I love Metallica. Spent endless hours in my preteen years learning guitar and mastered Metallica. I moved up to Megadeth and fell in love. Giving me hand cramps and twisted fingers. Speaking of similarities >>> My Last Words from Megadeth or Hangar 18 vs Call of the Ktulu (also involving Dave Mustaine) Please keep up the great reaction videos :)

She REALLY needs to hear The Day That Never Comes by Metallica!

You got a new subscriber here! I love you guys!

I go with Megadeth, always. Four Horsemen is awesome tho. You need to react to Tornado of Souls by Megadeth, it's my personal favorite and has the best solo of all time

I'm most definitely with Sistah on this. The Megadeth version is just a bit better. I like the lyrics of The Four Horsemen but the riffs and intensity in Mechanix is a a little something extra. Can I make a request? Tomorrow is my Birthday and I got one for Sistah to check out. The best is yet to come. Fast forward a some decades and check out Dystopia or The Threat is Real off the latest Album.

The explanation of the two songs and the history before the reaction is spot on! Great video, guys!

I found you guys through your Nightwish Ghost Love Score reaction and have been hooked on your videos since. 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!

Dave WROTE the original Mechanix which is the main body of the Four Horsemen. Just saiyan.

Yeah, Mechanix too, 4 horsemen kicks on album, Mechanix destroys everything live :D, pure raw energy.

I love both and keep switching back and forth between which one is my favorite lol. Really depends on the mood

This is going to be AWESOME

the Four Horseman is one of my favorite songs of all time. I love megadeth. but Mechanix doesn't compair. but I love the album Killing is my buisness! Mustain wrote em all. :)

I'm like Sistha a Megadeth Guy. but i admit that the 4 horsemen is the better song. Here's an Idea: OZZY vs RONNIE

My favourite YT couple doing a long overdue 'vs reaction' of these two songs. Was ace to see your reactions. ☺👍

First time seeing this channel, already know i want to hang out with these folks

Both are great, Dave's is more raw but I love the lyrics to Metallica's. So for me they are both great, a tie.

That last solo is so good. Like you said just showing off. Gotta wrap it up in a fashion worthy of the song up to that point. "Battery" "Fuel" "All Nightmare Long" "...And Justice For All" "No Remorse" "Ride The Lightning" "Hit The Lights" "Blackened" Can't wait for you to do those in due time. I've lost track if you've reacted to any of those yet. But I don't care xD

This debate will go on til the end of time. I was typing this long ass comment , but I KNOW everyone already either knows , or quite possibly it was already posted somewhere below. Great video though . Great idea .

It was actually a several day bus ride... with zero $$$ for food.

Dave had way more than a 4 hour ride home...they were in New York when he was booted. He had to travel back across the states to Cali.

Please do Tornado of Souls next. I think Master of Puppets or Battery could change the debate.

Bruh... 16:47 that riff is identical to Sweet Home Alabama😂 im fuckin crying

Great idea, great intro, great reaction, great video. Love both bands, but I'm with ya on this one Wolf. Oddly enough, I've been in bands that have played both "Horsemen" and "Alabama" and I never flipping realized that. And since you mentioned Vai... Which way ya going? Fast or slow? Great work guys, love it!

Megadeth!!!!

Wolf you made the right call Sistah may love both bands but there no dout Megadeth moves her.

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 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/etiGi7SLntOVYGg.html&t

I like watching y’all cause both of you get into the feel of the music and I like that great video keep it up

Play Four Horsemen on 1.5 speed with Hetfield's jaw strapped shut and you have Mechanix.

Five Magics is Epic !

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

Nice techo intro :D HalfLifeSistah choose DEATH! :D. Seriously you two guys are truely awsome.

The Four Horsemen (9/10) is in my top 5 Metallica songs. I can't say the same for The Mechanix (7/10) as far as Megadeth's catalogue goes.

My Favorite is, Mechanix (demo) by Megadeth, its faster and heavier than the regular studio version, and Dave's voice sounds vicious.

Hard to choose from this. Love both

You guys are great!! I watch all your reaction to heavy metal, and it makes me rediscovering those old classics in a way I wasnt seeing it. if there's one thing l'm not a big fan of is your headphones, you guys need to get some real headphone to get the full spectrum of frenquencies, espacially the bass and mid-bass frenquencies.

i personally think four hoursemen is better musically. megadeth is more thrash though so i'll probably always prefer them.

I was a Metallica fan first but now I love them equally

Quick info about the first song they played that was published was on an album of local metal bands put together by a guy I think was Brian Slagel called "Metal Massacre". The song had another guitarist Grant Loyyd given credit as well. The fist song was "Hit The Lights". Metallica is by far my favorite band but I must comment on Dave Mustaine. I respect the dude so much. Great song writer but also probably the most intelligent and articulate person in music.

YES!! A "versus" series! Awesome idea! - original compositions vs revised rearrangements - old version vs new version - original mix vs remix - original artist vs covers MOAR!!

I AM WITH SISTAH

I Choose "Mechanix" and I think that will be what Sistah picks...@19:30 in The 4 Horsemen can't keep up....

They booted Dave out of the band in NY before they recorded Kill em' All (like you said). But he had to bus all the way back to LA...a WHOLE LOT longer than 4 hours!! Love you guys!! Really appreciate your channel and the backstory on the songs! A great versus!!

Lmao i could see him smiling just before the 'fuck yeah' came in great vid

This reaction is interesting to hear because most people heard the Four Horsemen multiple times first and they liked it first, henceforth their judgment (including mine) is biased. Perhaps if Mustaine’s version was more ubiquitous first then it would be preferred by most people.

Wolfs evil look to sistah before that famous riff about to kick in. Priceless!!

Even the slow part of The Four Horsemen was Dave's idea lol

Great reaction (: lol these vs series (:. Yes Alott more vs Ithese are very dope (:.

there's something about the energy in megadeth's music that just sets them apart, for me. Hangar 18 next?

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)

I love your reactions.

Conquer or die Would love to see that reaction You guys rock Keep it up 👍🏻

Megadeth's first album wasn't that great but then you look at there next album Peace Sells But Whos Buying one of the best metal albums ever i mean Chris and Gar no line up better PLZ REACT TO GOOD MOURNING/BLACK FRIDAY

Iron Maiden already had the "galloping" rythym down to an art form by the time Mechanix was re-imagined as the Four Horseman. So Lars and the boys can thank not only Dave Mustaine, but Steve Harris as well.

hey there. just became a fan like literally days ago when I saw ya'lls first video but I have to say I think this is pretty awesome. There are a lot of review/reaction videos so this is fresh when it comes to the vs aspect. And I love how Wolf gives history and backdrop to setup the vs. Continue doing what your doing...love it. If I have not come across yet a video of yours, let me know...but would love to see Sistah's reaction to Iron Maiden's Dream of Mirrors or Rush's Fountain of Lamneth and or Temple of Syrinx.

Come on.... Spit out the Bone PLEASE!!!! Can't wait for Sista's reaction!

I love Metallica's. It has story, desperate feelings, and the four horsemen is much more familiar with culture, just WOWarcraft.

I'm 47, I've been in debate about these two songs since forever and I will say what I always say. Four horsemen is better simply because James is a better singer (even back then) BUT everybody has their taste and that is cool.

Hello you two! I enjoyed the Mettalideth out of this😁. And mr Wolf... You are the only one on these reaction videos that gives the history of what you about to hear, I LOVE THAT !!! Sista's reactions at priceless also. I love you guys😘. Please keep the old school metal coming😊. Take care you two, looking forward to the next one!😎
