I love how we live in a time in which for free we can learn megadeth riffs from the guitarist from megadeth. While I may know all these riffs I would like to thank you for this as it’s incredibly important useful for the new guys so thanks kiko.
We live in a time where the musician (kiko) wants others to play well. And instead of having to play by ear or look up tab we get a behind the scenes look. Thats what separates megadeth from some of the other big names in metal.
An intermediate player should not need a video to learn a riff...should be able to read tab or sheet...your not intermediate yet. Beginner is a long stagepossibly 10 years.....3-5 if lucky
"if you like that I can bring more riffs like this for you". You know how long I've been playing in my darkest hour wrong?. Thanks so much Kiko it's an honor to have one of the actual guitarist for Megadeth teach these. \m/.
Youre the man Kiko. Having family, solo career, job at Megadeth and still have time to run youtube channel where you take time to show beginner guitarists how to play part of songs they know and probably like.
as a megadeth fan, i knew kiko was a great guitarist, but watching him and seeing the enthusiasm he has to share his knowledge and help others shows me hes a great person also.
I love how Kiko teaches using the note names, instead of the numbers of the frets. Very important to memorize the fret board, and not just use tabs all the time. Respeito a você senhor.
Yeah I noticed that, I have some basis of music theory and I'm glad he referred to the actual notes, something I also do in my mind whenever I'm trying to figure out a tab. I think if all tabs featured the names of notes it'd be easier, at least for me. 🙂
@@Histgyph They go in order from A-G but B and E have no sharps so if you start wirh the E string. because there is no sharp 1st fret is F 2 F# 3 G 4 G# 5 A 6 A# 7B 8 C 9 C# 10 D 11 D# 12 E then repeat. know you know 2 of the strings all the way through
It's so fantastic to see that you keep being grounded and that you still have a heart and understanding for beginners, even though playing on a level that seems to be from a different planet. That's such a impressive mindset! Hope to see you on tour soon again. Thanks!
Props to you, I'd probably have picked Symphony (obvious choice, I know). Also the first part of Peace Sells is manageable, as far as the rhythm guitar part goes.
Спасибо большое, Кико! Это замечательно, когда такой крутой гитарист показывает, как играются оригинальные партии! Спасибо! Крепкого здоровья, береги себя и близких!
Typical Brasilero - so friendly and open, with that quaint accent. I only speak a bit of Portuguese, but they typically understand Spanish and answer in Portuguese (or English here in Florida). Here you can see Kiko's unpretentious joy in sharing what he does. Muito obrigato, Kiko!
He teaches so thoughtfully, most people teach inline with their knowledge but struggle to put themselves in the shoes of new players not taking many limits into consideration but not Kiko. "very open" "like this, not like this" 🥰
As a megadeth lover and guitar beginner, This is a perfect videoooooo! Kiko thank you so much! I'm learning 'This was my life' and 'she-wolf' now! Annnd you shaved now hahahaha
These are the parts that Dave did not write. For instance, the In My Darkest Hour part was most likely written by Jeff Young or possibly even Chris Poland - a phenomenal guitarist. Go look him up on TH-cam. Dave always brought in terrific guitarists, and often great drummers as well. And of course The Other Dave was an outstanding bassist in his own right.
Hey Kiko, it's so cool that you were able to take time out from your busy schedule to teach us how to play some great Megadeth guitar riffs, thank you so much, much appreciated, hope everything is going really well with touring, and also the release of the new Megadeth album.....Cheers!!!!!
Just learned how to play the SOD riff and it feels AWESOME. Now all I have to do is get faster and cleaner. Thanks Kiko! Also it's really amazing that you also teach us the name of the notes and scales.
I’m a simple person I see Kiko teaching for real and I subscribed. Wish I can learn from Kiko in real life please continue to teach us fans some Megadeth Riffs senor Kiko 🙏🏼 Gracias.
É uma verdadeira dádiva ter este cromo a ensinar sem qualquer compromisso. Antes tinjha de gastar a fita da cassete para a frente e para trás (era bom, treinava o ouvido mas frustrante também ) mas ter o luxo de ser o próprio guitarrista da banda a disponibilizar os segredos e nuances das malhas é uma poupança de tempo brutal e uma autêntica masterclass. Obrigado, Kiko. Continua o bom trabalho. PS As histórias das antigas são demais! Tens um talento inato para agarrar a atenção e narrar qualquer conto. Devias escrever um livro. Grande abraço e és uma inspiração.
This was awesome..Great teacher! I've played "In Your Darkest Hour" (one my favorite Megadeth songs) wrong all my beginner life. Learned a lot from "Trust" as well. I'm a fellow Brazilian Kiko (living in NYC), and you make us proud. Rock on mate.
Seeing such a legendary and skillful guitarist as Kiku Loureiro explaining easy guitar riffs and reminding beginners of parts that might be hard for them is both funny and amazing. Thank you so much for this video!
Absolutely love it ! Pls share more of the Classic Megadeth Riffs Beginners and Intermediate....You are awesome Kiko. Have see you in Concord and Mountain View CA. Great job with Megadeth !!
This is a pretty great video for a beginner, because you can learn a good amount of technique from these riffs. SoD - Syncopation RD - Isolating string noise when switching strings PAW - Getting locked in with few accented down beats IMDH - Splitting triplets across even fingerings Trust - Incorporating vibrato into riffs
Thank you! Please keep making these videos exactly how you did this one. I loved it when you gave technique advice, like when you stressed the importance of making sure the E string is quiet when playing the A and D... Again, thank you!
When I was still learning guitar when this came out 30 years ago, I shipped the single E between the frets 654 in the Symphony 2nd part. Then as you get better add the E between those notes. Dave even has at least 1 lesson clip where he doesn't play it so, if it's OK for him, it's pk for you! Keep trying you'll get it. Thanks Keiko been watching your vids since you started and wish they were sooner, but better that than never. I'll see you in Oct in Mansfield Ma.
Thank you! Great little bunch of building blocks to play around with. And I think your passion and dedication for the guitar is truly inspiring, as it really comes through....you know, one can never practice enough! Thank you man.
I'm relearning guitar after an injury that hindered the motor function in my left fretting hand. It's really frustrating not being able to play what I once could but this is still awesome thanks Kiko!
yeah.... well, call a riff easy... sure there aren't too many notes or a structure of notes too complex to remember or when to push down certain notes on certain points... but make this riff sound like Megadeth... well... And it is so liberating to feel like a beginner again after dabbling around for so many years on guitar by now... It is hugely inspiring to listen to your playing Kiko, thank you so much Sir! I truly am a Megadeth fan (for more than 30 years) and I love your contribution to the band as well. Plus, I never understood why so many people don't like the Crypting Wirtings album... there are some great songs and a lot of things going on in these recordings, musicwise...
I have never cared about megadeth but Kiko has been making me enjoy their songs. Post more videos teaching us how to play their riffs, licks and solos, please.
People say these lessons are for free. They are not. I know Kiko gets some money from these videos, that's the idea having a video on TH-cam. But still, very few people will put as much effort as Kiko does showing these basics. Most successful people have other means to earn money so I still thank Kiko for doing these and I think he makes these videos out of passion.
Thanks Kiko!!!! You are a good teacher!!! Please keep making these videos!!! I’m going to play some Megadeth riffs when I get home tonight!! I’m excited!!
It was nice to be reminded how important it is to isolate different sounds in a riff and use proper muting. I feel like sometimes I get caught up in the moment playing live and I don’t focus on that enough. And as he said, it just sounds messy.
I'm actually a drummer starting playing the guitar and loved it man !!! I don't have a "good hand" but I keep practicing it to get them better ! Salute from a Brazil hardcore fan !! \../.
I would LOVE to hear more guitarists playing megadeth tunes. Other than well you know the usual stuff. Once you learn these riffs, get a little daring. Go for something like "Dread in the fugitive mind." Everything about that song besides the end solo is so good to learn for finger placement and chord progression. Plus that whole album is a GOD DAMN WORK OF ART.
Really nice Kiko. Love seeing your passion for the music. Inspirational to see how you carry yourself around the sets and give back to the fans with these vids.
Trust was the very first Megadeth song I learned how to play on guitar. It's a relatively simple song to learn and play but Incredibly satisfying an great to play. Beautiful song and one of my favourites since I heard it. One of the best intros I've ever heard .....
Awesome thanks for the lessons again it’s a real pleasure or honour to have somebody like yourself in knowledge Ing us so like always I tried to make the most out of your gift even if it’s just one or two it’s very much appreciated everybody knows to make a living thanks so much
Thank you very much as always Kiko. Time is valuable, so I always appreciate the time you take to put together these videos for us all to enjoy. I can only speak for my own ability to learn songs, but I find it very helpful to see someone play some riffs before I can finally get them right. Even with the notation right in front of me, and the studio recording to reference, there's always a riff or 2 I can't get quite right, or at all in some cases. Then I finally see a video of it played where I can see the picking as well as confirm it's fretted the same way the notation states. Very easy to find live performances online nowadays for such things, not so easy when I first started out 30 years ago... Don't tell Dave, lol, but I had a VHS copy of Metallica's "Cliff Em All" live performance tape, a Kill Em All tab book (not even, I borrowed from a friend and photocopied the entire book), and a real shitty copy of the album on tape. That was how I taught myself to play, and it never would have worked if not for meeting people who played along the way. I'd get pointers here and there, not put in the work like I should have, and I got decent but could have been much better if I'd practiced more. I never used my pinky and am kicking myself now because I'm the process of now using it and trying to correct other bad habits I've essentially started over again relearning how to play everything. Funny how little habits can be so unnoticeable after a while until you try to correct them. As far as the learning on Kill Em All thing, I guess Dave wouldn't be too upset, it was a lot of his shit on that one anyways, and Megadeth was too hard or I'd have loved to start there. Funny thing about the tab book too, I snuck into the office at school to use the copier at lunch, they should invest in better locks😂, and got caught with about 10 pages left. The secretary helped me get my last 10 pages when I explained what I was up to. She wanted to make sure I had my tabs so I'd have something constructive to do on my week suspension for breaking into the office😂😂😂 I grew up in a good era, nowadays they'd have called the cops and made me a felon at 15 years old. She told me to put the book away in my backpack before she brought me in to the principal to receive my vacation😂. Anyways, thanks again Kiko, it's much appreciated.
Hello Kiko, thank you for pointing out all the little details while practicing - this is so importand und valuable! If you weren't a Musician on stage, you'd be a Professor at a renowned Music College! I would be sure of that! Thank you very much for your great work and your time you invested in these TH-cam Tutorial Videos! I wish you and your family all the best! It's great that you're there! With loving greetings from Germany Matthias
Show Kiko! Estou voltando pra guitarra depois de muitos anos sem tocar. E agora contigo Megadeth!!!!!! Demais isso!!!!!!!! Por enquanto estou "soltando" os dedos com alguns exercícios, mas em seguida irei tentar os riffs. Já salvei o vídeo aqui. Um abraço, sucesso e obrigado pelas dicas!
Kiko! muito muito obrigado!!! I'm a beginner guitarist that love the heavy metal, and to get a lesson from you is really great, thanks from to do this! you are a great person so awesome man obrigadoooo
You are a really good teacher! I thought people were just being nice but you're 👍 at breaking things down for beginners! And ive been playing 22years i get soo impatient.

Back in the day Kirk did one of these, flea has a good few tutorials, Dave has done some, dime has done clinics too, good for them
Even more incredible is Robby Krieger from the Doors teachnig you Doors songs!
We want this same video but for intermediate guitarists!!
Right. I'm a beginner that only knows tabs..I was confused immediately.

que susto.. pela thumbnail achei que o maluco tinha cortado o cabelo kkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Eu tbm
kkkkkkkkk
Sem cabelo grande não entra no megadeth.. Mustaine valoriza o estilo e técnica 50%-50%.

Every band needs a Kiko - I love these videos. What I wouldn't have given to have this sort of thing when I was a kid. Awesome.

Thank you man.
In the 70s if I wanted to learn a lick, I had to lift that needle up and down on the album tons of times, now I just watch Kiko.

I'd get pointers here and there, not put in the work like I should have, and I got decent but could have been much better if I'd practiced more. I never used my pinky and am kicking myself now because I'm the process of now using it and trying to correct other bad habits I've essentially started over again relearning how to play everything. Funny how little habits can be so unnoticeable after a while until you try to correct them. As far as the learning on Kill Em All thing, I guess Dave wouldn't be too upset, it was a lot of his shit on that one anyways, and Megadeth was too hard or I'd have loved to start there. Funny thing about the tab book too, I snuck into the office at school to use the copier at lunch, they should invest in better locks😂, and got caught with about 10 pages left. The secretary helped me get my last 10 pages when I explained what I was up to. She wanted to make sure I had my tabs so I'd have something constructive to do on my week suspension for breaking into the office😂😂😂 I grew up in a good era, nowadays they'd have called the cops and made me a felon at 15 years old. She told me to put the book away in my backpack before she brought me in to the principal to receive my vacation😂. Anyways, thanks again Kiko, it's much appreciated.
You are awesome, Kiko!

Timbre matador ein!! Props guy... awesome equalization.
You are a really good teacher! I thought people were just being nice but you're 👍 at breaking things down for beginners! And ive been playing 22years i get soo impatient.
The lick from hangar 18 you showed the other day is really good for practicing. Some Angra riffs/solos for practicing would be amazing too!
Thanks, Kiko. Old Megadeth stuff from the first two albums like Black Friday would be cool.
