Had you been classical music only, you can tell this is one of the greatest song ever written. Megadeth is the pinnacle of Metal, Friedman simply is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
I wish bands would put this much effort into music these day's! There are a few that do a good job but this music is timeless and so well written it's beyond a genre or timeframe IMO.
Competition raises everyone's game. I remember when this album debuted. There was a LOT of competition in the music industry, in general. Regarding Megadeth, Dave Mustaine was intent on burying Metallica with this album. This was to be his masterpiece.
@@ingleringlet-snipps3rd449 I think if Metallica stayed in the thrash metal path, maybe Megadeth could get bigger than them, but the Black album was just perfect to attract the masses at the time.
The song is in D minor, but Friedman is a sophisticated player, so what he's doing is notes from D Minor along with a lot of implied harmony within the arpeggios that he uses, meaning he is using arpeggios over the chord progression and the extra notes in the arpeggio imply that the power chord has extra notes. Because of the nature of the rhythm part, it's slightly more complicated because it's more than just a power chord being played, it's an ascending chromatic thing with D as a pedal tone. It's much more simple than it sounds, and as you can clearly see I'm not great at explaining. I'm sure you could google and get a better explanation, but long story short, it's D minor and arpeggios, including a Dmin arpeggio and a D min add 9 arpeggio. That's what I can say from memory lmao
i think mustaine is the most aggressive and chaotic guitar player, that his his style, but he is also very melodic and groovy as well, its the combination of both sheer aggression and chaos with beauty and melody that forms together to create such epic playing
It's the A string ringing out because they must have accidentally been hitting it while trying to chug the D string. It doesn't sound dissonant though, because it's the 5th of the key of the song, so they probably just left it in for a little extra thickness.
taka kaiwa the guitar pickups picked up some of the drum stuff if you listen closely on other isolated trcks you might be able to hear the drum stuff aswell
Aquí estoy amigo, lo saqué hace unos 10 años de Taringa, he tratado de volver a encontrar el post para volver a descargar todo esto (eran todas las pistas aisladas de todos los instrumentos del Rust in Peace) pero no lo he encontrado, incluso si lo encuentro dudo que los enlaces de descarga sigan activos. Saludos de México.
