@@stephenhgreen1026 Agreed with you. Also, ‘Return to Hangar’ isn’t half bad itself, quite possibly a sequel to this song considering it’s on a different album.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD,,, HOLY WARS!!!!! THOUGHT BY MILLIONS TO BE THE GREATEST THRASH METAL SONG EVER WROTE.....IT WILL MELT YOUR FACES CLEAN OF SIRS!!!!!
Holy Wars, Train of Consequences, Peace Sells, Angry Again, Sweating Bullets, Symphony of Destruction, Foreclosure of a Dream, I Ain't Superstitious, Mechanix, Killing is My Business, 99 ways to Die will get you started.
Sweating Bullets is a gimmicky song IMO, but Foreclosure of a Dream and Train of Consequences were kind of cool shifts from their older sound. I really liked Elysian Fields from that album. Peace Sells is kind of the no brainier option here though.
@@Hangry_Dave I think what Billy Bong was trying to say is that Marty was on guitar in this song, as well as Dave! Bands like these have 2 guitarists, Metallica, Slayer, Judas Priest, and more. Here wasn't saying Marty was in Metallica like Dave was.
@@ekgrafix Simply stating if they like the way the guitars are played on this song that if they wanted to hear something that does it better, not saying a better song, then to check that song out. Songs can be good in different ways.
Volkmar jus I’ve been watching these reactions for the longest and everyone says the same thing about TOS and you see it in their eyes ... the song is so tedious and long and the vocals are so ugh ... terrible choice really for anyone just getting into metal. And I think Marty’s solos in this song are “better” ... coming from a guitarists point of view.
By the way, this is where the name came from. Megadeath Noun a unit of one million deaths: used in estimating or predicting the fatalities that would occur in a nuclear war.
I know you have a Tool Tuesday, so make a Metallica/Megadeth Monday. For my recommendations, Disposable heroes, Creeping Death, Justice For All for Metallica. Trust, Tornado of Souls, Symphony of Destruction for Megadeth.
Drummer was Nick Menza... RIP!!! Rust in Peace was released in 1990. I remember a Megadeth t-shirt back in high school in the 80's that gave 2 definitions for Megadeth on the back. First one read: Megadeth-the death of a million or more people due to nuclear war. The second one read: Megadeth-the fastest, most technical speed metal band ever. Man, I miss those days!
I had that t shirt back in the late 80s had the seagull being squeezed til blood came out of it, wore it until it completely fell apart, need to hunt that down
I'm 44 years old and I discovered this album in 1991. I have produced techno, hip-hop, played guitar in metal and blues bands, played drums in other bands, did some SRV covers, and to this day, there is no piece of music that impresses me more than Rust in Peace. The album is an absolute masterpiece of technicality, musicianship and song-writing. Even Ed Repka's album art is timeless. Every song on the album is amazing. Quick note for the uninitiated: Dave Mustain (singer, rhythm guitar, lead guitar) and Marty Friedman (lead guitar) both played guitar solos on this song. The fast pattern style playing is Dave, while the exotic flowing stuff is Marty. It's pretty damn rare for both guitarists in a band to both play solos.
So, Dave Mustaine, the singer and guitar player, used to play with Metallica. After a falling out he founded his own band and forged his own path. Both are great bands, and heavily influenced thrash metal from the 80's going forward, but there is a bit of a historic "beef" between the two. Roswell "crash" was 1947. Rust in Peace was released in 1990, just after Bob Lazar went public. Megadeth was founded in 1983 after Dave left/was kicked out of Metallica.
You can see why Rust in Peace (1990) is considered one of the best Thrash Metal albums of all time. Top 5 for me. There are no bad songs on the album. I strongly suggest "Lucretia" from this album.
This song came out in 1990, not too long after Bob Lazar’s story came out. Lead trade offs near the end were between Marty Friedman and Dave Mustaine. I agree with everyone else, you need to check Holy Wars. Not just their masterpiece, but widely considered one of the greatest metal songs ever.
I met the drummer on this track Nick Menza. I mert him when he was drumming for OHM with another ex Megadeth member named Chris Poland. That was like a month or two before Nick died
I haven't listened to Megadeth for quite a while now, but in my opinion this is one of the best Metal albums of all times. Marty Friedman's playing is awesome on this!
FYI The drummer (Nick Menza) wrote the lyrics because he was so in aliens And it's 1990 from RIP album And the guitarists are Dave Mustaine (Vocals, rythem/lead guitar) Marty Friedman (lead guitar)
Hanger 18 is the third best song on this record. Holy wars and tornado of souls are a must. Rust is their masterpiece. They went more radio friendly on the next two records.
The grins on your faces at the end says it all. RUST IN PEACE is fire in album form. Lazar did talk about element 115 a long time ago. It's only recently been found by mainstream science and added to the periodic table. Roswell was the late 40s I think. Rust in peace was released late 1990. Can remember my older brother bangin it out at full volume. So they defo could have been singing about lazars revelations imo
The solos for this song are the two guitarist going back and forth. The next megadeth song you should listen to is rust in peace....polaris or holy wars....punishment due.
A little info on the song late drummer Nick Menza was a UFO afficionado and they wrote the song basically for him. If you watch the actual official video for the song you'll see that it has 100% to do with aliens and UFOs.
Released 1990! Dave Mustaine - lead vocals, lead and rhythm guitars David Ellefson - bass, backing vocals Marty Friedman - lead and rhythm guitars Nick Menza - drums, backing vocals ....... Check out MARTY FRIEDMAN's Solo Albums !
So many great songs to react too!! Holy Wars...

It's so great seeing people react to music one likes as it almost feels like listening to it for the first time ever. Great channel guys! Should do some Symphony X. You'll be blown away!
First time commenter, I've grow to really enjoy your videos, you two are some of the most genuine reactors I've seen. Since you ask for suggestions, I would like to suggest Wardruna "Lyfjaberg" it's a great song with a great video. Thanks and keep up the great work. (I used "great" a lot..)
My personal favorite is Sweating Bullets...a bit slower and less complex than a regular Mustayne masterpiece, but its story and constant build really gets me going...hes definitely got a good imagination and genuinely conveys it in his music. He hasn't shown any signs of carpal tunnel yet, and can still play just that fast...he just might be as crazy as his lyrical performances suggest, only he keeps it well wrapped.
You're getting into my lore and some my favorite music. Here Megadeth is conflating two separate things from UFO lore to spin this allegory. The first is a reference to the Roswell incident in 1947; the wreckage was allegedly transported to Wright-Patterson Air Force base in Ohio, and stored in Hangar 18. It's a bit of a creative liberty, and a common one, to place Hangar 18 in Area 51 as the song is, but it gets the point across. This album is a fucking banger from beginning to end. It was originally released in 1990.
Holy Wars the Punishment Due, 5 Magics, The Conjuring, Good Morning Black Friday, Sleepwalkers, Tornado of Souls, In my Darkest Hour, Trust, and there is a ton more you 2 homies can give us on Metal Monday’s to warm us up for TOOL Tuesday!!!!!
The Military Intelligence Roast was almost as sharp as Scott Glenn's "Capt. Bart Mancuso" delivered in The Hunt for Red October..."Central Intelligence Agency, now THERE'S a contradiction in terms!"
Megadeth is notorious for having both guitarists switching from rhythm to lead throughout songs. They will both do solos and Dave invented a style of play called spider chords
So I met them in your hometown i guess by the hats (Atlanta87)? Dave was so cool and laid back ! Next to Tool they had the most precise show ever ! More Megadeth please -wake up dead -liar are good one's 2 start 🤘🤘
The Roswell UFO incident in popular lore refers to the rumors and speculation regarding a July 1947 United States Army Air Forces balloon crash at a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico.
So next Tuesday - Rosetta Stoned please! It also has the theme of alien abduction - or it seems because Tool is always a puzzle. But you already know it.
This song is the metal version of "Dueling Banjos". 100% legit maestro's of the art. Fun Fact: Look into Jackie Gleason and Richard Nixon. Jackie was never the same afterwards. The truth has been out there a long while.
Megadeth/Metallica Mondays.. flip a coin or listen alternating Mondays.. you guys will learn a lot about the heavy metal scene and how it evolved into things like BabyMetal
Hanger 18 is a guitarist dream song its so technical and has so much energy and passion behind it. You gotta show the drummer some luv as well. Such a great reaction.
How many guitar solos do we want in this song?
Dave Mustaine: "Yes."
Almost all solo's is Friedman. Mustaine is a rythm beast with outbursts of fast and agressive solo's.
11 guitar solos to be exact.

After Holy Wars, do Peace Sells.
Peace sells is classic but I'd go the conjuring. One of my faves.
While I gotta say Train of Consequences lol
Literally any other song in Peace Sells is better than the title track. I'd much rather hear Wake Up Dead, Good Mourning/Black Friday or Bad Omen
@@Walamonga1313 My Last Words is my fav from the album
A classic my friends. This whole album is amazing.
Holy Wars, Train of Consequences, Peace Sells, Angry Again, Sweating Bullets, Symphony of Destruction, Foreclosure of a Dream, I Ain't Superstitious, Mechanix, Killing is My Business, 99 ways to Die will get you started.
Angry Again is a great suggestion, it doesn't get enough love.
Ashes in your mouth
Sweating Bullets is a gimmicky song IMO, but Foreclosure of a Dream and Train of Consequences were kind of cool shifts from their older sound. I really liked Elysian Fields from that album. Peace Sells is kind of the no brainier option here though.
Just play peace sells all the way through....
Throw Tornado of Souls in since it has one of the best guitar solo's ever.
If you ever saw MTV News back in the day that bass line to intro it is from Megadeth’s Peace Sells...But Who’s Buying
This album was released in 1990 but yeah they started in the 80s
a "megadeath" is 1 million deaths and is used to calculate damage in a nuclear war.

Poison was the Cure is my favorite Marty solo on the album. Song is fast paced and the solo is fast paced too while retaining that Marty feel.
By the way, this is where the name came from.
Megadeath
Noun

Holy Wars is a must listen🤘
I'll never naysay a Megadeth song, and you picked a good one. However I can't wait for y'all to get into some more Rush.
Spirit of Radio! Freewill! Subdivisions!
Nick Menza was the drummer on that album. An absolute legend. Unfortunately he passed away a short time ago.
I still have Nicks drumstick i caught when megadeth played in chicago in the early 90's under the name vic and the Rattleheads.
- Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
- Symphony of Destruction
- Tornado of Souls
- Poisonous Shadows
Must do Megadeth Train of Consequences, and In My Darkest Hour
So far so good... so what. Damn its a good album.
Megadeth rips ! This album is one of those you don’t even have to skip one song . You HAVE to do more Megadeth songs guys . Nice job 👍🤙

Megadeth is notorious for having both guitarists switching from rhythm to lead throughout songs. They will both do solos and Dave invented a style of play called spider chords
