As someone who's listened to Holy Wars literally a million times, I can honestly say that this cover was almost PERFECT!!!! Dave Mustaine couldn't do a better job. F**KING BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@ClinicalDecisionYikesYT it got to the stage that he couldn't. E.g No More Mr Nice Guy video - no shots of him singing and playing. He couldn't do it as he was stoned out of his head. No loss though, it was a crap song/video anyway :)
Give the riff from good mourning/black friday from 2:58 a listen. But yeah this one from holy wars is nice too not to mention he sings while playing this.
I really appreciate how tight your playing is. I don't want to be accuesed of blasphemy but it is possible that you play even more tightly than Dave and Marty. And you do it in one take. I've been playing long enough to know how hard it is what you achieved. Fantastic
Thanks for the support but I assure you Dave and Marty are so far beyond my capacity to play. Those guys are amazing and pull this off every single show flawlessly. I've been front row at Megadeth right in front of Dave. People are yelling right in his face screaming all sorts of crap and he plays on perfectly without missing a beat while singing over rhythms I'm flat out keeping up with. Absolute pro...
I did. I've been listening to thrash for decades and I honestly cannot tell you what 90% of the lyrics to any song are. I listen for the instruments and music. The vocals are just background noise to me.
Im 30YO, makes long time that im watching some guitar cover on YT, and it's tje 1st time that i find a man that have a smooth fingers as you. Great job guy 😍
Sir Lambchopper, I only came across your channel recently, and I have to say that you are THE BEST thrash tone chaser and cover maker on the whole RU-vid, bar none. If there was justice in the world, each of your videos would have millions of views. If someone handed me this cover sight unseen and told me it's a pre-release version of the album without vocals, I would have 101% believed them.
Thank you this exhibition of talent. And for the acoustic one too! In an interview, Mustaine had mentioned his solo on this track was a single take effort. He said; it just simply sprung up in my mind!
Yeah I’ve seen many interviews with Dave about it. Apparently he just dimed an 800 and let loose. I don’t have reason to doubt it, he’s got crazy talent and was top of his game
Whoa okay, I know I just commented during the video, now I'm commenting afterwards. I'm here at work, my jaw is on the floor (I'm not sure this has ever happened before), the solo, the riffs, all of it I can't believe how perfect it was. In fact better than perfect, if anything it gave me even more appreciation for this song. Holy crap dude, I'm nearly in tears at how beautiful that was, bravo man, bravo.
I think I missed this little gem. Marty Freeman and Nick Menza were the absolute compliment to Dave and Chris best lineup if ask me. Sounds awesome rock on 🤘 brutha thank you for sharing
THANK YOU for panning the audio starting at the 5:03 mark; I grew up in radio stations, literally, and I speak from authority when I say that you’ve mastered your craft! LOVE your work!! 👊🏻😎
Been workin on gettin that last solo down .. this has become one of my favorite licks to play. I can’t get that sweep down in the 1st solo to save my life. I also just realized you uploaded this today .. glad to see you making new videos.
Impeccable once again sir...Dave and Marty small rejoice!!! Wooowww every harmonic nuance and raw 1980's screech and squeal. Cracked this cold one in your honor. Loce your assortment of axes too!! \m/ \m/
This cover is one of the best on yt. Played very well and accurate to every note. Just a quick question, is there any difference between the Dean AOD and the Dean RIP? I own the RIP but never got a chance to play the AOD so is there any distinguishable difference between the two? Thanks in advance
For the moment the best cover of the clean solo , and I love to hear this played on classical guitar , it's really amazing , thank you for us to give this job , i Love it
Oh my GOD! I'm so intimidated! You play just like my guitar teacher. I absolutely fell in love with Megadeth after I started learning guitar and the song you so aptly play leads off the best Megadeth album ever. Thanks for posting this video😍
Amazing cover! Your tone is insane! If you only knew how many times I play along with this because it damn near perfect! I’ve never been able to follow Dave’s solo anywhere better than here... Keep rocking bro! Dethhhh🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻.... Maybe a Dave solo tutorial????
Nice cover! Quick question though. I’m looking for an amp to play old school Metallica and Megadeth and I was wondering if I should go with a plexi then boost it as they did on Kill em all or just use a JCM clone and use a rat pedal to color the sound more towards kill em all. I’m currently looking at Ceriatone for amps.
LambChopper678 thank you for the reply. I might get a Ceriatone plexi then heavily boost it but I’ll look into a dsl. I use to have a DSL40c but sold it to buy another amp.
How is it possible a guy can play this good and is not in a mainstream band. Selling out shows. Awesome. Some of the large stars should start looking on here for there next guitar players.
this is sick! you made me wanna play guitar again. arguably the best cover on youtube, not to mention the tone and, most importantly, playing. please keep 'em nice covers coming! :)
Nice to see someone get the hammer-ons right. Great job I have seen a million people cover this song and you are one of the few who got it right and yes you need to do some death cover's.
Hey man, I'm sure your busy. But if you get the time, I had posted on one of your other videos the following questions: "Ok bro, long time subscriber, and I've tried to glean knowledge from you where I can in your videos...I would like to know in your honest opinion, between Revalver, Bias, Guitar Rig...any other software-based product, what would be the best to EXACTLY replicate tones off of metal records, like you did with your Metallica "blackened" vid (matching waveforms, whatnot, etc)? Also, as an aside, do you know ANYTHING about products such as Line 6's Firehawk 1500, Kemper, Axe FX, etc, and how well THEY can match something with the precision that you displayed in your "Get Metallica's Exact Tome in Under a Minute"? I would love the portability , as well as to be able to crank the shit up to high db levels, but, ideally, not at the expense of sound quality. Basically, I'm a bedroom rocker, so I enjoy the ability to turn the volume down and get decent tone, but I would benefit from the ability to play at stageworthy sound levels on occasion. I play a 7 string, with active pickups, in a style reminiscent of Fear Factory. I'm sorry for the jumbled -up , convoluted question ( or series of questions, more like it), but YOUR opinion matters to me. Thank you. :)" Since then, I am leaning toward the line 6 Firehawk 1500. How would one go about, assuming it is possible, to accurately match waveforms of tracks from famous bands in general?
Wow this could serve as an audition into the band it's so good. Thank you for these covers! Now I'll rewatch in 0.25 speed to learn the tricky parts haha
Everytime one of your videos comes up as a suggestion I say: Ok, like the song, I will give it's listen for a few seconds. 5 videos later................. Man , your tone and timing is album standard accurate. Was waiting for the acoustic part on this to "judge" ( if even I have the right to hehehe).
