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!

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

@Opadei 6 ай бұрын

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.

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".

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.

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.

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.

@@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.

@tommypenisfingers 5 ай бұрын

@@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.

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

@@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.

Great analysis! I would really like you to hear the Brazilian Gabriel Henrique singing Something Beautiful. The music video was posted on his official KZfaq channel. I believe you will be surprised.

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.

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.

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.

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!

@strangesostrange 4 ай бұрын

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!

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.

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

@cobrasys 6 ай бұрын

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.
