yeah haha.. i love Megadeth and Dave was a massive influence on me but he did it all .He did everything he could to sell more records .Including writing poppier songs. I love Countdown it is my favorite Megadeth album and idont think he simplified things or slowed them down on that record to sell more albums but Youthenthanasia was even further in that direction as we Cryptic and by Risk well....When it didnt work for him he got really bitter i believe. This was when he went back to his roots more. I believe that e ven though Slayer had no radio hits the reason they have been able to sell more records is because they never changed to gain more popularity .Even Diabolus which people called their "Nu metal record" was not that much of a departure from their older stuff.
Don't care what anyone says...this guy, Tony Iomi and early Hettfield are the greatest rhythm players/riff men ever. id have to put Dave number 1...he's influenced so many people and written some of the greatest riffs that'll ever be written in the metal/speed metal / thrash genres
he is indeed a riff master and he may no be a shredder but his style of rhythm playing is very intricate.Nobody ; not even Mustaine; can downpick quite like him. There are differences in their playing style and James relies a little more on downpicking where as Dave seems to do a bit more alternate picking
***** wtf? The thing that should not be , is one of Hetfield's simplest songs and itsd still a great riff but dint forget about Master of Puppets, One , etc (i just woke up so i am foggy) . But listen man, you calling hus riffs "stock" proves nothing. The dude is factually on a plane of his own in terms of rhythm playing and he has written some really memorable riffs along the way. He is revered by players such as DImebag ,Mick Thomson (slipknot) and even Gary Holt has mentioned Hetfiled as being the best downpicker period as has Dime who also said Master of Puppets was an album that changed his style and approach forever . Many players mention that album when talking about rhythm/'riff playing . . James is a phenomenal metal rhythm player and his riffs have touched millions upon millions . That is way more than i have achieved as a player and i am sure none of his detractors have done what he has done . There are great riffers out there , Tony Iomi , Jeff Hanneman (also very underrated as songwriter) even Page (who i am not a big fan of) and heres the deal ; Iommi and Page play very simple riffs but they are catchy and have groove and a lot of nuance . Trey Azagthoth (who was inspred by Kill em all) from Morbid angel is another master riffer/rhythm player . his riffs are super inttricate in many instances , yet there is groove to his playing . All of these players and James (as well as Mustaine) have created stylistically something their own, and they have written some great fucking riffs that millions love and so if you or the next cat say they are "stock" then so be it ..
I'd put my man Bill Kehiller up there too, dude is a riff factory. But I believe he's a huge Metallica fan, so there ya go. I totally get the hate for Metallica, they've made some bad decisions and they're very mainstream which puts die-hard metal fans off in a big way, plus the whole pirated music debacle. But you can't deny their talent, that's just childish.
Dave's performances vary a lot. I used to be a huge Megadeth fan but the magic stopped for me. He still has great performances but some are so bad that I stopped watching Megadeth live videos 3 years ago.
+xXAscendingPhoenixXx Jealous, condemning?lol not really, in fact hes one of my idols, I'm just stating facts, he did say a Line 6 is better than Marshall on camera, not sure if Marshall know about this after giving him this deal but i bet they wouldn't be happy with him slagging off their company specially when they are the ones who are putting food on the table for him.
He's known for speaking without thinking first, my guess is he wanted a Mustaine Signature with Marshall long ago and they declined. Angry response follows, I'd like to see this video for laughs. Dave brought me to Marshall, they owe him too and he got it.
+chiefmachine24 And in other interviews he mentions the reason why. During the 90s record executives were forcing many artist to confine with popular music, in the 90s, it was Nirvana and grunge. What he mentions in this interview is why he no longer follows any of that. Think before you speak.
xXAscendingPhoenixXx He's never mentioned anything about being personally forced to dress a certain way or play a certain type of musical style. If he did it, that was HIS way of staying relevant during those low times of Metal. He's always bragging about how he does everything his way, but when his way sucks balls he blames past musicians, management & producers for those decisions. Just like he did with Super Collider, just like he did with Broderick, just like he did with Drover. Don't get butthurt
+chiefmachine24 Who gives a shit if he wore flannel or a goatee listen to the music that bad motherfucker is playing and if you still don't like it maybe the problem is you. Yeah.
i just saw the differnces with dave's face, if you watch on 2010 you will see he had changed a lot, in one year but respect for dave he has been through a lot and he didn't gave up.
I am a fan one of the biggest fans they are. I do not have the albums and merch to prove it anymore, but I can remember when these guys played crate blue voodoo and use line 6.
I'd like it if the artists wrote the tab books. Like Mustaine should do the tabs for all his music and then have someone publish them. I'd prefer that than some guy listening to the record trying to figure it out. Also, with the artist doing it, we'd know exactly how they played it, i.e. what fret/string.
I think thats quite common, since most tabs out there are mistaken in a lot of ways. Funnily enough, I've never used a tab for this one, just my ears, and I got it right. Dave is so right here, trust your ears and not the tabs.
Ya, dave is right. I usually never look at the tabs unless its a last ditch effort. Normally when im trying to learn a song ill just watch the person play it and try to copy them. Most of the time the tabs are wrong. Maybe not the whole song but some parts are transcribed wrong.
I like his opinion of tabs, friggin tons of em and only about 10% of em are right, that and since im not good and reading things like time frames I end up having to hear the song anyways, its just quicker to slow a song down and pick it out note for note and practice it to get the speed and accuracy with the song, may be a different spot on the neck than the original but its alot closer than trying to pick out which tabs on which site are the closest to the actual song and you get the feel too
dont confuse me, im a bigger fan of dave and his work in megadeth, but this is the first time i see him playing good and with a nice sound in a interview
most quiet amps = DIEZEL... You can crank the gain without a noise gate and it is VERY quiet. If there is any noise in a Diezel, you have bad wiring on your guitar or a bad 12ax7 in the amp.
Hate him or love him, the guy is a legend! Been a fan for a long time. Love Megadeth!
I definitely hate him, but he makes great music
IMO and to clarify nobody asked, megadeth is the goat
@@GabrielTAsher you personally know him?
I saw Megadeth 2 weeks ago, amazing...I always have the best time at Megadeth gigs.🤘
Love him and his music.
Ending scared the shit outta me
Right?! I had not a clue that the video was coming to an end, then SD:LFKJSDFP that happened.
Even though I was prepared it still scared me!
+Yavuz Erol rip headphones users, i was one of them xc
A bomb got dropped on the studio.
Lmao
Mustaine is a beast...out of the big four in my opinion always wrote the most difficult songs.
funny thing is, he did wear flannel in the 90's.
+Joe P yeah he also said the industry washing pushing for it
and, had a goatee :D
back in CTE days
ok, "goatee" :P

Its like someone just kicked the side of their PC really hard when they decided this video was over. Thank you for that
Mike Rogers 😂😂
this was hilarious. love how dave is so chill and just talks like a normal dude. he gets it
Dave has always been and will always be a FUCKING BEAST.
Mustine is the ultimate package. The greatest rhythm guitar player and one of the best lead guitarist. ❤
Don't care what anyone says...this guy, Tony Iomi and early Hettfield are the greatest rhythm players/riff men ever. id have to put Dave number 1...he's influenced so many people and written some of the greatest riffs that'll ever be written in the metal/speed metal / thrash genres

Josh Pelton amazing comment man. Thanks for the write up
I’d say Dave is a better composer, but hetfield is the king of rhythm
I'd put my man Bill Kehiller up there too, dude is a riff factory. But I believe he's a huge Metallica fan, so there ya go. I totally get the hate for Metallica, they've made some bad decisions and they're very mainstream which puts die-hard metal fans off in a big way, plus the whole pirated music debacle.

man i just love Dave's guitar tone. It's just so original and smooth..
I really admire Dave Mustaine ❤
So do I!
*Here it is 2021 and Dave looks better than ever and he just beat cancer..this man is a red headed legend!*
i love Dave so much!!! even as he has gotten older and has had o many problems with his arm, he still knows how to rock out! party on Dave!
0:33 the fakest laugh ever...poor guy would have died if he didnt laugh
David Luiz ...mustaine can be very scary sometimes 😐
Lol I got scared for him
aheheheh... yea.
If you have headphones, take care with last second of the video!
So im not the only one that the end scared the shit outta me
This guy and Hetfield have completely changed my songwriting and playing. Pedaling and precise palm-muting are endlessly useful.
Dave is such an under rated guitarist.. He may not be the fastest or best lead player .. But his rhythm and sound is just beast.
underrated???????????????? hell no hes a god
Dave knows his stuff. A sober mind is sharp. Good dude.
Dave is legendary.
That was some beautiful ear rape at the end
Shit... i thought i was having a stroke at the end...
Tiago Cabral haha right!
Ashes in your mouth, and Kick the chair are 2 of my faves. + 99ways to die were excellent examples you don't get to hear like Holy Wars.
That Crown of Worms riff sounded heavenly when Dave cranked it
cool interview ! Love dave and his playing !
Dave is pure metal- the real deal! Love ya Dave!
David Curtis
7:18 that's some guitar playing
+Albee213 and he used to sing playing that.
+Stoned Mcgee still does, the hell you mean used to
+themetalbutt Now he Mickey Mouses to it
+Alex Dattel lol no. go watch some live shows from this year
Dave's performances vary a lot. I used to be a huge Megadeth fan but the magic stopped for me. He still has great performances but some are so bad that I stopped watching Megadeth live videos 3 years ago.
Its amazing how Dave got his own amp with Marshall considering he said a line bloody 6 sounded better than them on camera lol
Harry Callahan It's because they do unless you're trying to play AC/DC or some Allman Bros.
+Harry Callahan I see you often on Megadeth videos condemning either the band or Dave. You must be a very jealous and angry kid huh?
+xXAscendingPhoenixXx
Jealous, condemning?lol not really, in fact hes one of my idols, I'm just stating facts, he did say a Line 6 is better than Marshall on camera, not sure if Marshall know about this after giving him this deal but i bet they wouldn't be happy with him slagging off their company specially when they are the ones who are putting food on the table for him.

Dave brought me to Marshall, they owe him too and he got it.
Dave says a lot of shit lol. And business is business, it's not like they do signature gear out of kindness.
That “kick the chair” riff!!
"the first 8 notes" *plays 15...
I've seen pics of Mustaine in a
flannel & a goatee on stage, don't gotta lie Dave

BDDominick75
Where did I say I don't like the music?
That was extremely ironic.
BDDominick75 Just because we admire someone's work doesn't mean we should never call them out for making themselves look like fools. Never
Dave is such a Cool guy. What a Talent!
didn't he have a goatee in the Angry Again video? I'll go check.
that kick the chair riff is insane
Wow, that was a great video. Interesting info on the guitar.. That was cool.. Thank You for sharing this one.. ; )
people say hes full of himself, cocky or whatever but the impression ive always got is u ask him a question and he gives u an honest answer lol
That song you are asking about is called "Crown Of Worms" it is a bonus track on the remastered Countdown to Extinction cd
He does look good in a goatee.
Dave Mustaine has been ‘my ni@@a’ since 1986.
I love that man.
Theres no way he cant like zzTop. He has that riff swagger..JUST METAL STYLE. NO DOUBT. Daves a fucking RIFF GOD LEGEND.
Dave looking amazing here, now it s 2019 , so ten years after he s old man, father time dont gives anyone a pass!
nope, it happens quick
"Time waits for no one. Not even me."
Dave Mustaine
Unless you’re Paul Rudd
Even his name sounds metal, Dave Mustaine!!!!
Thanks for the love, it means a lot…where are you from?
dystopia gave me hope for megadeth again.
Pre 2013 Dave:27 yearold.
After 2013 Dave:65 yearold.
i just saw the differnces with dave's face, if you watch on 2010 you will see he had changed a lot, in one year but respect for dave he has been through a lot and he didn't gave up.
I am a fan one of the biggest fans they are. I do not have the albums and merch to prove it anymore, but I can remember when these guys played crate blue voodoo and use line 6.
Crown of Worms
I fucking love Mustaine
Thanks for the love, it means a lot…where are you from?
North Carolina
@@kellybeane7546 nice, how’s the weather like over there and how long have you been a fan?
at the ending of the video i though i was getting a blue screen D:
Good interview!
When I played thrash metal in Los Angeles, I played through a 4100 JCM 900, with a 1960 slant cab & a JCM 900 bottom.
For thrash metal its great.
Best metal rhythm player in existence.
I love when he disses the interviewer at around 2:00 and the guy just takes it
is that a burp at 0:12 ?
It could just be the floor creaking in fear under Dave's feet
I'd like it if the artists wrote the tab books. Like Mustaine should do the tabs for all his music and then have someone publish them. I'd prefer that than some guy listening to the record trying to figure it out. Also, with the artist doing it, we'd know exactly how they played it, i.e. what fret/string.
He knows how to make the sponsors feel good about having him on his side
Love the jam of Crown of worms love that song
Dave was playing the Rocktron Prophesy II for a while around 2004 time frame in case anyone is wondering when he strayed from Marshall heads.
beautiful riffs
lol,that last second of the video
I challenge anyone to outplay DAVE good luck
i fucking love daves rhythms its as good as somebody's solos if not even better!
Daves the boss of guitar playing.
Damn that crown of worms riff sounded amazing!
Love them best band ever....
I think thats quite common, since most tabs out there are mistaken in a lot of ways. Funnily enough, I've never used a tab for this one, just my ears, and I got it right.
Dave is so right here, trust your ears and not the tabs.
@IShadow90 It's actually Crown Of Worms, a bonus track off the remastered Countdown To Extinction album
the man
Jeezuz Kristoff... that buzz at the end.
where I see Dave Mustaine I gave him one ''LIKED''!!!!!
Very intelligent man.. a massive legend and so eloquent
No wonder why walked away from clowns Metallica
YES, KICK THE CHAIR
Dave is awesome
Dave the thrash metal god!!
when I play palm-muting it totally goes:" hhhhhhuuuuurrrr"
Dave Mustaine Rocks!
David Curtis Drumming
Super Dave!!
He doesn't even use Marshall pre's live, he uses Digitech pre amps into a Marshall power amp
Dave is the dad I’ve always wanted lol😂 but my dad still likes metal so he’s pretty cool
daves awesome
Anything. Just to 👂 ur voice. 🔥.
Ya, dave is right. I usually never look at the tabs unless its a last ditch effort. Normally when im trying to learn a song ill just watch the person play it and try to copy them. Most of the time the tabs are wrong. Maybe not the whole song but some parts are transcribed wrong.
He's aged 40 years in the last 10
That's heroïne for ua
@@debeuleneareko6157 No, that's good ole USA food, water and the prescription drugs🤷🏻♀️
Dave sported a goatee and wore flannel in the late 90's :D
I remember selling my 4 marshall bass cabs in 1997 so I could buy a hartke Stack.
Dave's awesum!!
His Spinal Tap comment is soooo true. I have lived a moment from every scene of that film over the years. Spinal Tap IS a doco NOT a comedy.
the end was EPIC
I like his opinion of tabs, friggin tons of em and only about 10% of em are right, that and since im not good and reading things like time frames I end up having to hear the song anyways, its just quicker to slow a song down and pick it out note for note and practice it to get the speed and accuracy with the song, may be a different spot on the neck than the original but its alot closer than trying to pick out which tabs on which site are the closest to the actual song and you get the feel too
crown of woorms !!
DAVE IS made of METAL
yes sir.
dont confuse me, im a bigger fan of dave and his work in megadeth, but this is the first time i see him playing good and with a nice sound in a interview
... me also.
@MehrozeGillani Actually that's the riff from "Kick the Chair"
Wtf happened at the end? Otherwise great vid!
fuck that tone is a monster!
dude what? for closure of a dream Dave you are sporting a goat t and wearing flannel
Affliction. They have them at this store called the Buckle.
The Kick The Chair riff is almost the same as the riff from Polaris, trademark Mustaine.
I think that is what he was referring to in the early 90s. Sounds like there was label pressure to do that.
most quiet amps = DIEZEL...
You can crank the gain without a noise gate and it is VERY quiet.
If there is any noise in a Diezel, you have bad wiring on your guitar or a bad 12ax7 in the amp.
