It was announced this week that Dave Mustaine has been diagnosed with throat cancer. We wish him a prompt recovery and have no doubt that he will slay cancer just like he slays his guitar!
To put a dark blanket on it all, Dave had a lyric some years ago (so he was already prepared within his addiction and depression) but I certainly wish him a speedy recovery: A tout le monde / To everybody (in this world) A tous mes amis / To all my friends Je vous aime / I love you Je dois partir / I have to go. There are a lot of songs from that album (Youthanasia) which would be perfect for this channel. Go search! :)
Your daughter is very open minded and intelligent, you should be proud of her and i like your connection as father and daughter...keep rocking guys \m/
@@allahbless2278 oh of course their first 4/5 are their best for the big majority, but I don't think Load/Reload deserve the "they don't matter" treatment just because they're different. I'm not mad or anything xD I just like when bands do something different
10:27 “They killed my wife and my baby...” 😧 Priceless reaction, Juliette! I got so used to that verse over the years that I never realized how macabre it sounded.
Indeed. Because of his drugs and alcohol problems, as well as his aggressive attitude. I think it actually was just before they headed out to record the album. Dave has credits on like half the KEA songs and a few that carried over to Ride The Lightning.
@@onewaydown more a case of his drug and alcohol problems were incompatible with the drug and alcohol problems of the rest of the band. Don't make it sound as if he was the only one that got drunk and took drugs
@@DEFKNIGHT So the fact that Load is the most game changing record in Metallica's history does not really matter... okay.... Fact that cover versions of songs from Garage are often more known and better than the originals does not really matter..... Fact that S and M is one of the best live records in music history does not really matter..... oh god stuborn closeminded dumb people are always so limited.....
@@Jackobo6 There's only one fact that matters with Plastica - they said they would never sell out, and then they sold out. And for the record, Load is garbage and no one wants to pay $20 for a double album of covers.
@@shaitanlavey people here obviously know nothing about the band. How exactly the sold out? They made ballads? Fade to black is ballad too and it is not on "sold out" album. If they did, they would make another Black album because that was big succes when it comes to sales. Instead of that, they made totally different record in style that was not popular in mid 90's. That is exact opposite of selling out. There are one of the best songs they have ever made on Load. No one wants to pay for double album of covers? So why is it so beloved among the fans and those cover album made better sales than most of bands will ever do with their regular records. So are so damned wrong in every point you wrote there.
Thank you all for checking out this video! What did you think about the reaction and analysis? We are planning for Black Sabbath next week; which song should we do?
This is definitely a must. Wonderful introduction to Dio's vocals and of course the talented Ritchie Blackmore. Also.. once Black Sabbath with Ozzy on vocals has been introduced.. this would fit perfectly with highlighting the difference that Dio brought to their sound with Heaven and Hell. Peace
Thank you all once again for such a great discussion in the comments. Few good comments about Chuck messing up (again!!): indeed, Dave got kicked out of Metallica prior to the official recording of Kill 'em all. Also good discussion around The Punisher. If you want to see Dave discussing this very topic, check out this link: th-cam.com/video/hSfcyxjCOpo/w-d-xo.html. Feel free to tell them you came from here!
ChemicalReactions! MEGA-DAVE!! OVER METTALICA ANY DAY! Dave mustine has waaayyy more skill and talent than James and kirk! Dave created the "spider technique on guitar"!😈
Five Magics....Pure genius. Masterpiece, gives me the goosebumps thinking about it now! The progression of it leads to one the best conclusions I've heard period.
Dave got fired before Kill 'em All, he did get writing credit (same for some songs on Ride the Lightning) but did not perform on the album it was all Kirk Hammett.
Ugh, serious dad goals here. I love your daughter's insight and how you two interact throughout. My daughter just turned 3 and I cannot wait to start doing stuff like this.
I love that grin on her face when the opening riff busted right out. Straight up no compromise no holds barred. Thrash/ speed metal at it's best right there!
Blind Guardian - Mirror mirror | Bard’s song (In the forest) Avantasia - Reach out for the light | The Seven Angels Theocracy - Hide in the fairy tale | Mirror of Souls Kamelot - The Haunting ft Simone Simons Helloween - Straight out of hell Demon Hunter - Not ready to die Demons and Wizards - Fiddler on the Green Powerwolf - Sanctified with dynamite Tengger Cavalry - Cavalry in Thousands
Alien Weaponry - "Kai Tangata" Please do the official video for a better experience. They are a young metal band from New Zealand who sing in their native language.
Garri Kirk has some kind of soul in his solos, Mustaine is way more aggressive and technical, I think he was just too advanced for Metallica. I appreciate both styles though. Wouldn’t put either one in front. They’re both awesome .
Great video. One of my all time favorite songs. Megadeths original guitarist Chris Poland and their original drummer Gar Samuelson were both born in my hometown.
Other great symphonic rock/metalbands with female singer are: The Gathering ( with Anneke van Giersbergen) or Epica (with Simone Simons) or Within Temptation. All bands are from the Netherlands (as is Floor Jansen from Nightwish)
Very cool reaction guys. Been playing guitar for almost 20 years and this song still gives me a workout! I still can't nail Friedman's solos 100% cleanly at speed, but even without playing them the rhythm parts are fun as hell (and still quite challenging)!
Umm, not quite....Dave Mustaine played with Metallica on their Demo album "No Life to Leather" and before they recorded their debut album "Kill'em All" he was fired for his drinking and rowdy behavior. But what you were referring to was that he WROTE a lot of songs on "Kill'em All" and a few on "Ride the Lightning." Anc then after he was fired, he formed Megadeth with his friend Dave Ellisson on bass, Gar Samulson on Drums, and Chris Poland on guitar. Releasing their debut "Killing is my Business" in 1985. The song "Mechanix" on that album is a Megadeth'ed version of Metallica's "The Four Horsemen".
Megadeth as of this recording. The album is Rust in Peace. Dave Mustaine - Lead Vocals and Rhythm guitars (some lead spots) David Ellefson - Bass Guitar and backing vocals Marty Friedman - Lead Guitar Nick Menza - Drums The first part of this song was written about the violence between Catholics and Protestants in Ireland. The second part of this song (the punishment due) is about Marvel's character Frank Castle aka The Punisher.
Ahh yea...that is a great "head to head"...If I had to pick a winner between them I' would give a slight edge to "Disposable Heroes"...BACK TO THE FRONT..you will do what I say...you coward...you blind man...))
just stumbled upon your channel and really digging your reactions and especially analysis.. bunch of reaction channels just read the facts online and listen. your way of figuring lots of stuff out by thinking is really great.. keep it up guys!
Metal school teacher needs to check his lesson notes. Dave Mustaine was fired before recording of kill em all. Never played on any official Metallica studio album but has 4 writing credits on kill em all and 2 on ride the lightning.
One of the inspirations for this song was Mustaine's experiences in Northern Ireland when The Troubles were still ongoing. Whilst onstage in Northern Ireland and drunk, he brought up "The Cause (essentially the IRA's guerilla war/terrorism against the British Army, Ulster Unionists and Protestants, the IRA wanting a united Ireland and being staunchly Catholic). This almost caused a riot in the crowd and police were called in, Megadeth being escorted offstage and being sent away in a bulletproof bus. "Brother will kill brother" being a reference to the fact that even close family were at odds with each other, some being pro-British, others anti-British, some being Catholic and others Protestant.
Great discussion again by you two! And I actually didn’t know about Holy Wars and The Punishment Due being different songs, so there was educational value to the discussion as well! If you can react to Ne Obliviscaris, specifically “And Plague Flowers the Kaleidoscope” or “Eyrie” by them, that would be incredible! Being a metal head for about 15 years, I can easily say they’re the most incredible band I’ve ever heard, and it gets me so excited to share this band with those who may not have heard of it. Much love from NYC!
Hahaha, this song is NOT about The Punisher, although there are some interesting parallels. As I understand it, The Punishment Due is more about being tethered to (government) organizations like the CIA, and even the military. Coercion tactics being used to bend to their will, never being able to get out (much like the mob), which could include harming one's family (either via threats or actually doing it) to ensure cooperation, or as punishment for refusing to comply. Definitely a song about power struggles overall. PS - The Punisher is a Marvel comics character named Frank Castle, who served in the military (Vietnam?) and was very trusting of all the "freedom, liberty, and justice for all" mantras espoused by the "American dream". Castle's dream becomes a nightmare, and he is horribly disillusioned by the failure of the system he swore to uphold and defend, when it fails to uphold and defend justice after his wife and child are brutally murdered, and the killers get off scot-free. That is when he becomes the Punisher, utilizing all his military training into his own unique style of vigilante justice, making sure justice is done - one way or another. One of his trademark weapons include the use of ammunition called "mercy bullets" (probably what we call rubber bullets in real life), which maim but do not kill. The last time I read any comics with the Punisher, while his first aim was not to kill, he was unlike other heroes who absolutely refused to kill bad guys, EVER. Castle had no problem eliminating/neutralizing or "permanently stopping" repeat offenders, or especially dangerous ones who should not be given that chance to re-offend. An amazing character, and I wish I got more into him in my comic days, but I was already a devout Batman and Spider-Man fan, and that was expensive enough to keep up with as it was. I always prefer the vigilantes to these wussy heroes who essentially virtue signal and refuse to eliminate legit threats via execution, resulting in more innocents being harmed. I was working on my own comic characters back in the day, but while I could create characters and develop backstories, I couldn't create actual stories to put them in, so they ultimately went nowhere. I still dabble though. Cos how knows... maybe one day... lots of popular things come about when the creator is late in life. It's not necessarily a young person's game anymore.
Mustaine was kicked before their first album's official production. He was with them during the writing and promoting of the their "No Life Til Leather" demo, of which included songs and riffs that made it onto kill 'em all as well as having writing credits to most kill em all solos and certain select guitar riffs that made it into songs on Ride The Lightening. Dave and the band fueded over his material being stolen and Mustaine's personal anger toward having been kicked out and his material used without permission fueled his writing for his own band for many years to come.
Dave Mustaine is not on Kill 'Em All. He contributed to the songwriting process during their demo days, but he was fired before they recorded the album. Kirk Hammett is on Kill 'Em All.
a perfect Title to react to for the School of Metal series would be 1980s "Heaven and Hell" by Black Sabath and perfomed by the Godfather of Metal and the man who introduced the Mano Cornuta _|,,| to the Metal scene Ronnie James Dio. Rock On Greetings from Germany |,,|_ _|,,|
I had much the same reaction to learning about the inspiration for "Holy Wars...". For the first part I was like...interesting, makes sense...good to know that it was a trip to Ireland. Then when I learned about The Punisher and the second half my thoughts were: wow, that's unexpected...this really adds a lot to these lyrics!
And the bass parts on this song.. I tried to learn it as a teen.. No way. It's just a masterclass in bass playing. Everything you know and do not know is on it. And there's a gazillion nuances that make the song what it is.
Not many youngsters these days know their history( the crusades, the Spanish inquisition)! Very impressive! 👍 "Peace Sells" would be a great song to react to
Awesome to see you react to a cornerstone of thrash metal, and nice to see Juliette is back. She has a good insight in music and in general, smart kid!
Hey guys. This is truly a classic metal jam. For Black Sabbath, I would highly recommend Heaven And Hell. I think you might be slowly turning her into a metalhead.
Such a tragedy to lose André so early in life. He was an amazing pianist, incredible composer, and an absolutely inhuman metal vocalist. "Nothing To Say" would actually be my recommendation over "Carry On", since it's a much heavier song, so it would likely be a better introduction to Angra for this channel. They seem to react more favourably to heavier riffs with more of a focus on rhythm, rather than the pure speed/melodic songs, which I think take a bit longer to hook people in general. Both are legendary songs by Angra though, and a must listen for any metal enthusiast.
I wonder if either of you have heard the newest Megadeth album. Dystopia is one of the best stuff that's come out in years. A very stellar Megadeth album.
@@ChemicalReactions A few picks from that album: Dystopia (won a grammy in 2016), Conquer or Die/Lying In State (2 songs, that need to walk hand in hand).
It was announced this week that Dave Mustaine has been diagnosed with throat cancer. We wish him a prompt recovery and have no doubt that he will slay cancer just like he slays his guitar!
Many prayers for Dave and a speedy recovery!
Dave is a warrior. He's been through basically everything.
Cancer has 0 chance of survival.
@@11DNA11 Fuck yeah, its more like cancer has a Dave Mustaine than the opposite.
He's beaten far greater things.
To put a dark blanket on it all, Dave had a lyric some years ago (so he was already prepared within his addiction and depression) but I certainly wish him a speedy recovery:
A tout le monde / To everybody (in this world)
A tous mes amis / To all my friends
Je vous aime / I love you
Je dois partir / I have to go.
There are a lot of songs from that album (Youthanasia) which would be perfect for this channel. Go search! :)
Your daughter is very open minded and intelligent, you should be proud of her and i like your connection as father and daughter...keep rocking guys \m/
Yes. This
Yeah. What a good kid you have there sir. Be proud.
The whole Rust in Peace album is a staple of metal. Easily a Top 3 all time
I discovered it after Countdown to Extinction. Definitely more thrash!
@@maxotto9877 totally agree.
TheRealEmperor my father said it wasn’t the best album from them and I’m like how dare u
4:34 "and then a whole bunch of albums that don't really matter"...that comment got my thumbs up
I totally agree. That comment was epic.
Really open-minded comment yeah
@@OnlyCualquiera Sounding salty lmao,all their other albums are super subpar compared bro their first 4/5 albums depending on who you ask

Load/Reload are competent rock albums, with a fair few kick-ass tracks on them, but yeah, in the context of Metal, they don't really matter..
This song would be in my top 10 metal songs of all time 🤘🏻
Yeah. That's right.
Agreed!
The entire album is my fave metal album - just a masterpiece.
For sure, this whole album might go in the top heavy metal albums of all time tbh.
It's in everybody's top 10
Tornado of souls next, the best song from them imo
Not its not lol...
@@MiikeyLawless because musical taste is obviously objective
agreed.
at the very least, their best solo (and arguably best solo of all time)
Not the Best Song. But the Best Guitar Solo Song by Megadeth.
10:27 “They killed my wife and my baby...” 😧
Priceless reaction, Juliette! I got so used to that verse over the years that I never realized how macabre it sounded.
actually Mustaine got kicked BEFORE recording Kill Em All

Heaven and Hell 🤘🏻
Children of the grave is pretty good
i love the bass in this song
i'm pretty sure you would love it to
Love your guy's reactions ! Juliette is so open minded to learning about this genre and her input is intelligent and perceptive. Keep 'em coming ! 😬👍🏼
Rainbow - Stargazer
This is definitely a must. Wonderful introduction to Dio's vocals and of course the talented Ritchie Blackmore.
Also.. once Black Sabbath with Ozzy on vocals has been introduced.. this would fit perfectly with highlighting the difference that Dio brought to their sound with Heaven and Hell.

29 years later and this song is still impressing young people.
He was fired from Metallica in the process of recording Kill 'em All. But they used a couple of songs co written by him in Ride The lightning

Yessss, my favorite track. Very underrated.
The great Dave Ellefson. 🤘 D&D.
punisher is not a hero, is an AWESOME anti-hero, but kind of a Psychopath with PTSD
the netflix series is AWESOME

I clicked this video just to watch the girl's face melt off during Dave's solo and I was not disappointed.
That’s the only reason I watch reactions to this song.
Peace Sells will always be my favorite Megadeth song, and a pretty good song to introduce people to them.

Dave wrote few riffs in Kill'em All. And couple in Ride The Lighting.. That's all... All solos wrote Kirk
Garri Kirk has some kind of soul in his solos, Mustaine is way more aggressive and technical, I think he was just too advanced for Metallica.
I appreciate both styles though. Wouldn’t put either one in front.
They’re both awesome .
Listen to the Metallica demo with Mustaine - Dave wrote a lot of the solos that Hammett copied. Mustaine’s solos are better
@@seancorker5815 fuck yeah
@Garri you obviously don't know shit.
Check out female-fronted band Arkona (Masha Scream is a beast on vocals), Arch Enemy (both their female vocalists).
"The a whole bunch of albums that don't really matter." Love that.
Helloween - Ride The Sky
Great video. One of my all time favorite songs. Megadeths original guitarist Chris Poland and their original drummer Gar Samuelson were both born in my hometown.

The first part of this song was written about the violence between Catholics and Protestants in Ireland. The second part of this song (the punishment due) is about Marvel's character Frank Castle aka The Punisher.
Great as always! I really love the school of metal series! :)
If you like female singers in Metal Bands, check out Doro Pesch. She was one of the first and is still concidered by many as the Queen of Metal.
Um... Lee Aaron is the "Metal Queen"... LoL!!!
+1 for Doro... So many people ride on her coat tails and people don't even know her that well in the US anymore
What about Kate from Acid or Leather Leone from Chastain, Dawn Crosby from Detentè and Fear of God etc etc. Doros accent is hilarious.
The Punisher is an excellent show, Jon Bernthal was perfectly cast as Frank Castle. He first appeared in the 2nd season of Daredevil.
Let's not forget Dolph Lundgren. For those who like Sodom.
Mustaine did not do Kill Em All or RTL. He was kicked out right before they did KEA

Such a classic, definitely one of the best song and album of the metal genre.
Well. lots of female metal bands and female fronted metal bands in Europé. Lots of females in the crowd at metal shows in Europé as well.

One of the inspirations for this song was Mustaine's experiences in Northern Ireland when The Troubles were still ongoing.

As dudes from Lost in Vegas have put it:" This song is like a swiss army knife of music".
LOL! Interesting phrasing. Not sure I understand what that means though!
Hahaha, this song is NOT about The Punisher, although there are some interesting parallels.
As I understand it, The Punishment Due is more about being tethered to (government) organizations like the CIA, and even the military. Coercion tactics being used to bend to their will, never being able to get out (much like the mob), which could include harming one's family (either via threats or actually doing it) to ensure cooperation, or as punishment for refusing to comply.
Definitely a song about power struggles overall.
PS - The Punisher is a Marvel comics character named Frank Castle, who served in the military (Vietnam?) and was very trusting of all the "freedom, liberty, and justice for all" mantras espoused by the "American dream". Castle's dream becomes a nightmare, and he is horribly disillusioned by the failure of the system he swore to uphold and defend, when it fails to uphold and defend justice after his wife and child are brutally murdered, and the killers get off scot-free.

I still dabble though. Cos how knows... maybe one day... lots of popular things come about when the creator is late in life. It's not necessarily a young person's game anymore.
Check out this link from a Dave Mustaine interview: th-cam.com/video/hSfcyxjCOpo/w-d-xo.html
Art of Life - X Japan
The full 30 minute version :D
And hopefully the live version, so they can see Yoshiki going nuts..
great reaction.. your daughter is very intelligent and insightful you must be very proud.. what a great thing to share with her
Love your comment regarding Metallica...and a whole bunch of albums that don't matter. Truth.
Mustaine was kicked before their first album's official production. He was with them during the writing and promoting of the their "No Life Til Leather" demo, of which included songs and riffs that made it onto kill 'em all as well as having writing credits to most kill em all solos and certain select guitar riffs that made it into songs on Ride The Lightening. Dave and the band fueded over his material being stolen and Mustaine's personal anger toward having been kicked out and his material used without permission fueled his writing for his own band for many years to come.
Epic is the right word to use for this song. Hanger 18 should be the next Megadeth song.
That little lady is very smart
almost 30 years old and still fresh
The Black keys - Lo/Hi
Des Rocs - SLO
Blues rock here, defiantly worth your time to check em out! :)
Dave Mustaine is not on Kill 'Em All. He contributed to the songwriting process during their demo days, but he was fired before they recorded the album. Kirk Hammett is on Kill 'Em All.
You guys should react to Epica - Sancta Terra ft. Floor Jansen!!!
YESSSSS !
Yep! That one is amazing!
Sounds like a Metal Maiden Monday special!
ChemicalReactions! The link of the music video!! th-cam.com/video/cx22Yuj2nzg/w-d-xo.html
a perfect Title to react to for the School of Metal series would be 1980s "Heaven and Hell" by Black Sabath and perfomed by the Godfather of Metal and the man who introduced the Mano Cornuta _|,,| to the Metal scene Ronnie James Dio.
Rock On
Greetings from Germany |,,|_ _|,,|
K-nay...thanks for the upload
Megadeth: Rust In Peace/Polaris.
If you do Sabbath...definitely start with War Pigs...
I think thats a proud dad there rockin out with his kid to holy wars
Black Sabbath, Heaven and Hell, Legendary Song, great for new metal listeners.
I had much the same reaction to learning about the inspiration for "Holy Wars...". For the first part I was like...interesting, makes sense...good to know that it was a trip to Ireland. Then when I learned about The Punisher and the second half my thoughts were: wow, that's unexpected...this really adds a lot to these lyrics!
And the bass parts on this song..
I tried to learn it as a teen.. No way. It's just a masterclass in bass playing. Everything you know and do not know is on it. And there's a gazillion nuances that make the song what it is.
11DNA11 ... absolutely!!! I struggled to play this one smoothly
@@brianprice8815 I didn't even get to the nuances :D The crazy "notes everywhere!!!" feeling you get by trying to learn this.. Damn.
Helloween - Keeper of the Seven Keys
You have heard Devin Townsend kingdom, how about older "devy"?
Strapping Young Lad - Love?
What a lovely relationship you have with your kids. Godspeed Chuck
Not many youngsters these days know their history( the crusades, the Spanish inquisition)! Very impressive! 👍
"Peace Sells" would be a great song
to react to
Yes, I love this girl! Sharp and isn't shy to be so...

Awesome to see you react to a cornerstone of thrash metal, and nice to see Juliette is back. She has a good insight in music and in general, smart kid!
Yes, live this is incredible!!!
(I've seen megadeth live 2 times)
Steven Wilson - The Raven That Refused To Sing
Some OPETH!!
Harlequin Forest Live🤘
Arch Enemy, In Flames, Within Temptation, Gormathon, Raubtier, Clawfinger, Amaranthe
Oh man, old In Flames is a must ! Something from Jester Race and Whoracle would be great
I'd prefer anything from Reroute to Remain and beyond 😅
But a Clawfinger reaction would also make me verrry happy 💜
Hey guys. This is truly a classic metal jam. For Black Sabbath, I would highly recommend Heaven And Hell. I think you might be slowly turning her into a metalhead.
Oh she's back!!
She never left!
The last video with your son threw me off lol not bad, just unexpected
The new cam looks great👍
Jody Smith Just changed the angle with the same old cam!
"In my Darkest Hour"
I could listen to the beginning 30 seconds of this song on repeat forever and be fine with it
Megadeth is and always will be the best thrash metal band of all time...r.i.p Nick and good luck to save during his fight with cancer.
angra - carry on
R.I.P. Andre Matos 1971-2019
Seu brasileiro
Such a tragedy to lose André so early in life. He was an amazing pianist, incredible composer, and an absolutely inhuman metal vocalist. "Nothing To Say" would actually be my recommendation over "Carry On", since it's a much heavier song, so it would likely be a better introduction to Angra for this channel. They seem to react more favourably to heavier riffs with more of a focus on rhythm, rather than the pure speed/melodic songs, which I think take a bit longer to hook people in general. Both are legendary songs by Angra though, and a must listen for any metal enthusiast.
Rory Mitchell beautiful words
I remember back in the day we kids were showing this to our parents and now we as parents are showing this to our kids.
Megadeth Tornado of Souls
I wonder if either of you have heard the newest Megadeth album.
Dystopia is one of the best stuff that's come out in years. A very stellar Megadeth album.
Haven't had the pleasure yet
@@ChemicalReactions
A few picks from that album: Dystopia (won a grammy in 2016), Conquer or Die/Lying In State (2 songs, that need to walk hand in hand).
Nobody expected The Spanish Inquisition.
