Thrash developed in the early Eighties as a subgenre of the broader heavy metal category and gained momentum throughout the decade. From the pioneering "Big Four" bands-Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer and Anthrax-to Exodus, Testament, Overkill and Sepultura, thrash metal pushed the boundaries of aggression, speed and stamina with fast, muted open-string-based riffs and furious lead breaks. - บันเทิง

+Ohsnapzdawg The internet needs more people like you
+Ohsnapzdawg thx dude)
"Matallaca anthrax magadath and slaya"
Commented someone with a profile picture of a Master Of Puppets shirt
+GloryDouble7198 good story, man...
+GloryDouble7198 dude you have a Metallica pic and everytime I see you comment about Metallica it's always hate, it makes no sense to me
+GloryDouble7198 sorry bro your comments must've come off wrong to me, usually on TH-cam whenever someone says something negative about Metallica it's hate so I was confused. I'm not a Muslim or brand fan either or anything lol, I love metal and especially Metallica, sorry bout that though
everyone chill, and enjoy the good music the matallaca anthrax magadath and slaya provide us with! rock on brothers! \m/
I like frash motal too...
Hahahaha
😹
Says the one with an acdc profile pic
@@spfkali hahahaha u got mad?
@@spfkali search Scott Ian Malcolm Young here on youtube if you don't see the connection/influence of AC/DC on thrash...
Best thrash lesson I've ever seen.
Damn that guitar looks so healthy.
what's the name of guitar?
Chris Davidson oh thank you, but do you the exact model? and whether it is good for beginners or not ? :)
Chris Davidson
600 guitars? holy shit!
give me one of your 600 guitars lol xD
Chris Davidson If you really knew anything about guitars, you'd be able to tell that it's an ESP and not an ESP LTD. Please sit down.
I cannot take my eyes off those little charming skulls, mate
That's my guitar 🤟
@@philfoster2246 what kind of guitar is it????
The demonstrations in this video are very well done. I really like the multiple passes and how patient he is with his teachings. Not all of are experts yet and he is easy to follow for us learning players.
This is not only the best thrash lesson I’ve seen but also perhaps the best beginner lesson for someone wanting to play metal. Incredible.
"thrash metal riff of destruction"
love it~
the song is: Anthrax - Caught in a Mosh
Thank you for this great lesson, Martin (and Guitar World).
I’m back again. This is the best galloping practice I’ve found
I LOYKE YOUR STOYL !
I was in the mosh pits when the thrash movement exploded - I saw Metallica as an opening act, if that tells you anything. The thing that I LOVED(and still do) about thrash was the emphasis - or 'featuring', if you will - of RHYTHM guitar. Yeah, there are crazy leads too, but a lead is like a flavoring, whereas the rhythm is the entire meal. I'd much rather hear a chunky riff than a fiddly lead any day.
Thanks for the lesson. I enjoyed it, and will keep working at it.
Brilliant. It really helped me a lot, specially with your picking explanations. Greetings from Buenos Aires and great job!
Alternating picking can be real challenging for me when I want to play at different speeds, I just lose my momentum all the time.
3:00
Ohh don't gotta worry about my forearm stazzing out.
Button mashing a controller my whole life has prepared me for this. XD
Really great lesson.....this guy is an awesome teacher!
That's really cool AND easy. Nice little set of riffs to add to my arsenal. Thanks!
Lamb of God, Pantera, and other groove/death metal bands are completely inspired by thrash. Thrash is the reason why death metal even exists. Genre elitists everywhere.
hari haran thrash metal is the beginning of extreme metal....
Doesn't Venom pre-date all of that though?
We are here for the metal, no matter what genre.
Gain on full?!! Oh-kaaay...
Ikr hahahah, not great for metalcore
An Awesome lesson. Really captured the styles of the different bands. Love the riffs. Thanks alot :)
Awesome licks man!
Fresh Metal! hahah ;D
hahahhahahahhh
Fresh metal style 00:07
Vladimir Makarov
more like rash metal?
o sotaque dele eh engraçado d mais :D
1st year playing guitar it is a struggle and pain.
nicolas vignon No pain no gain.
1 year isn't enough, try at least 2 or 3 years more :)
nicolas vignon I started about 5 months ago and I'm already playing green day and blink 182!
Luke Blumell bwahaha i know babies that can play those hah
add about 1.5 years and maybe you'll be playing Holy Wars.
Joe Roz truth
So many important details explained here. Awesome video
Dude! thank you for this video! I followed all your instructions and learned all the riffs very quickly, Great Teacher!
Can you have more of a British accent?
+Kyurox
That's should be my comment! :D
Lol!\m/Martin Goulding IS British\m/He plays with British Prog-Tech Metal band Linear Sphere\m/And he teaches guitar too via Guitar Techniques mag!\m/AWESOME guitar mag..covers alot of styles/genres from classical,folk,blues,jazz,rock to metal\m/\m/\m/
Daiv Mosteen? :D
Nice man simple to the point no showing off. I wish everyone would teach like this!
Much appreciating a guitarist who speaks rhythm in the lingo of drummers.
I love Megadeth's style. Just wished I could play it. Its so hard >_
Not really. Try something like angry again. or kill the king. If you listen to the song over and over again, it always helps when your going to learn it c:
RaidGamingHD It's not that bad, just start slowly and work your way up
+RaidGamingHD It's Easy if you're a musician
+Barry Dompor Nobody can play Megadeth stuff when they're first starting out playing guitar.
That Metallica-inspired riff was awesome.
Megadeth's was so much better though :v
There's always an annoying megadeth elitist nearby when metallica is mentioned. Both riffs were awesome.
As much as I like Megadeth, Most of the "Megadeth elitists" are kiddies who just stopped listening to Slipknot a day ago to try and seem like a hardcore metalhead.
Dude, did you just give a speech for my comment? You just lost the internet battle, bruh.
Gaddafi Duck Slipknot is amazing though and don't lie they have some great songs even if you try and look cool by "hating" on them.
Thank you sir....thanks for slowing it down......Fantastic
really great lesson it shows all the different sounds of Thrash
MEGAAADDDEEETHHHHHH
The best is the slayer like riff
Hell yeah!!
I almost think it sounds better played slow
Ohsnapzdawg It's he heavier when it's slower yeah?
you're a great teacher Martin....thank you
im playing the guitar for quiet some time now and i wanted to try playing metal. this video has been very helpful, since u have the basics and many examples here. good video. thank you!!!
"Slaya" lol
British hater! haha...
ai doun´t think saou ;)
Talk more about the left forearm bracelets. I think were missing a critical nuance.
+Tim Carter That is the funniest fucking comment yet. \m/\m/
+moshpit199 Thanks. I almost commented on the skull inlays.
Listen to that punchy, bass-y tone! I vote this guy has the best metal sound - you can hear all the notes, the signal stays clean, the chords aren't muddy, and the riffs have the kick to stand up to the drums; way to go!
i been playing guitar for about 6 years and his little tips just helped me; i knew about what he been talking about but he described it so i can easily understand those techniques
Jeff used the hell outa his forearm.
Hello ^^
Yeah. But who can say he was a precise guitarist?
me too!
Dude your teaching videos of thrash are great!
Andres Turco i know right I just need to convince my parents to buy me a guitar any advice
52 people accidentally hit disike
Taught me a lot, thanks!
Excellent lesson martin!
DO NOT SCOOP YOUR MIDS thats the worst thing ever
Lots of metal bands (including metallica) scoops their mid quite a bit. not a whole lot, but definitely not boosted in their mid range. so i guess its quite flat which is considered "scooped" to some people. for me i just max out all my eq for that sweet brown sound by evh
Agreed. Most actually boost their mids. It's all about getting it right where it sounds awesoeme.
John Schiermeister Untrue. Most professionals don't scoop their mids because it makes it hard for the guitar to be heard past the bass and drums.
Metal Marauder ^ indeed, some people do forget that the guitar is a mid-ranged instrument - so live-wise play to it's strength, don't weaken it! recording wise, it's not quite so bad - but still need to be careful with it.
It works fine for rhythm playing and it can be great, but in leads there is just no way to play without mids. Just like Martin said
Playing thrash metal with "1and2and3and..."??? Fuck that. If you can't feel the rhythm, don't even try.
I would explain that breaking it down and counting the beats until you get it internalized helps make one a tighter player, but then I probably would be talking over your head.
I like his teaching one and two and a. Me a beginner, has to start at the beginning. Learn correctly and accurately. Some day it will be fast and tight for the right tempo
awesome lesson...clear, relevant and extremely helpful :)
Great lesson!!! I love it!! Thank you!!!
This guy gave terrible advice for EQ. If you want a bedroom tone then listen to what he said. If you want a decent tone: Turn the gain down from full until it sounds just a little too clean, then bring it back up just a little bit. I start with my bass turned all the way down and turn it up until it starts to really add balls to the low end, too much more and it becomes boomy. My midrange I try to keep cranked up, this is where most of your definition is as a guitar player, learn to love mids. I turn them up until they're a little too loud and then bring them back down just a bit. Highs I like to adjust by playing a full open E chord with the treble turned all the way down, and I turn it up until I can clearly hear the high notes when I strum the chord.
Depends on whether you're into a very heavy rock/metal rhythm guitar sound,or if you prefer a much more 'rounder' mid-rich tone :)When I'm playing rock or metal rhythms/riffs,I usually use scooped sound..But when I switch to rock/metal lead guitarplaying or shred,I will increase the mids.It works with my Jackson with EMGs 81-85.\m/
Shannon DeLorme I want that guitar though!I looked at their site but it must be a custom job for him!
The Conqueror, all in all it really depends on the context in a given mix. Genre doesn't matter so much as occupying the proper Hz range in the band setting. This may also require a different EQ pattern for recording vs playing a show.
Obviously this is more of a general guideline than a hard rule, Dimebag used scooped mids and it worked in Pantera. But as a lone guitar tone it mostly sounded like shit, the soul all comes from his playing and style.
However in most live situations scooping the mid-range in your guitar is going to bury it under the bass/kick drum and the hi-hats.
Gary Hundsrucker I was thinking it's just an older model, but you might be right about the custom. Looks like the M-II with a slanted single coil in the neck instead of the usual humbucker.
he is talking about the rhythm sound which with these settings will be awful for lead work but thats the setting alot thrasher did use during the 80s
This lesson is great, and the technique is brilliant, but that tone is not conducive to teaching this style well. Your really don't want the gain all the way up, and you should really up the treble and use SOME mids, otherwise you get a flubbery and limp sound.
MAN.. YOU R AWESOME..
This lesson kicks ass!!!!
Never set the gain on full that is a terrible idea.
***** A lot of amps, if you turn the gain up all the way everything gets really fizzy.
wise words for all situations in life
only if you wanna play black metal
Jeez! Loads of these beginner guitar lessons give way to much attention to tiny fine tuning details before even explaining the basic technique! 5 minutes of how to use your wrist? Just tell people how to play the damn riff, then refine the technique!
I've always had the same issue with instructional lessons dating way back to the 90s. Some of them start off slow enough, but then you are bombarded with 4 years of theory.
Awesome lessons !!!
Cheers mate 🎸 👍🏽
you sir, have an amazing pick
those are some very usefull tips ! thank you !
Nice licks - Love the Thrash!
yeah, both are my favorite brands for metal.
You've got amongst the best teaching techniques & ppint of view on TH-cam.
Thanks Martin for the tips. Rocking that shit right now.
VERY GOOD GUITAR TEACHER !!! THANKS !!!
WOW, this guy is really versatile, both proggressive and thrash videos REALLY got me!!!!!
Damn good lesson!!
Amazing perficet and so great , That is you . I had to follow your lessons .
Pretty cool lesson...thanks 🤘
I could listen to him all day long!
Good stuff. Thanks.
Have to say this guy is the best instructor for a couple of months, great playing and explanation
Awesome!!
More Martin Goulding please!
Its extremly good man. Do a lot of like this. Like.
thanks martin
i have to say this is a real how to play video... nice work martin. its not just the how to do it but also how can you do it with alot of explanation..
Thank you so much. I am praticing a lot....
Holy shit this lesson is so in-depth, really well done
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I love how you go over the absolute basics of playing a guitar like how to place your hand and then jump straight into really fast riffs. I think there's been a mix-up of two universally different lessons on either end of the spectrum :P
thank you, sir
Gr8!!! Nice playing...
thanks, man!
martin is the best !!!!
I have an ESP, it is probably one of the greatest guitars I have played, I definitely recommend it!
That is some monstrous tone.
best vid on metal so far
Finally, a Guitar World guitar that has been cleaned and polished! Paul's guitars are usually so covered with grime and finer prints that it's hard to see the natural beauty of the instrument. This looks so good! Makes me want to buy one!. Presentation is everything in metal.
wow this is a really good quality video, this guy really knows what he's talking about for the most part.
Awesome…thanks.
Hi. Really great exercise. Learnig this since 2 days, now I'm at the 3rd part. I come from the accoustic guitar, singer songwriter such things so I never used power chords. Think this exercise is perfect when you are already an accoustic guitar player with no much experience in metal guitar. Hope it will be my introduction to this :-) Thanks a lot and greatings from germany!
I love everysingle guitar this man has.
GOOD TEACHER !!!!
very interesting indeed cos i usually do some of that but hes extended it THANX ALIX
Great!!!
nailed it.
Exclent explain very cool
Thanks man I'll look em up. \m/
