its a lot easier to appreciate Megadeth if you're a guitarist. Their music is very technical from an instrumental standpoint, Mustaine is a guitar genius!!
Mustaine has an ability to tell a story and conjure emotions just with a guitar... it’s something I’ve never heard reproduced. I honestly believe if it weren’t for Dave we’d have no Metallica
This is the only rock song I know where none of it's riffs or melodies get repeated elsewhere in the track after they've been played through. No verses and no choruses, every time there's a change in the song it's a totally new section. And somehow it works beautifully.
I could honestly listen to Lex describe music for hours. She has a very interesting and unique way of interpreting songs and I love to hear her perspectives and takes on little things. She’s super intuitive. Amazing really. And her enthusiasm and spirit is contagious and always fun. Great reaction as always. 👍🏻
The last time I saw Megadeth a few years ago this was the opener. Everyone's head just banged in unison during that end section of the song. It was awesome!
Fans of Megadeth and this album, in case you missed it, Brad and Lex reacted to The Conjuring about a week ago. The only thing stopping the Lex train was Brad having to pause.
Hey - Brad. I catch a lot of your guy's live streams and I must say... for whatever reason... your live reactions are waaay better than what is portrayed in these TH-cam videos not live. The people who miss out on the streams miss out on your personality man. You are definitely a character, and the duo here feels powerful. Keep up the good work my man.
This song is about Dave Mustaine when he was living with a girl he didn’t want to be with anymore, but only stayed with her because he didn’t have another place to live and was dating a girl he liked on the side. So he was out with her, not his boys. That was his “cover story” You really need to react next to: Mary Jane (for the awesome composition) And Liar (for the aggression and shock value)!
@@KetoFitChef Yeah but I think they have better songs. I'd put liar lower on the list. Musically Liar is good, but the lyrics are kind of... they could be better. This is my opinion. I used to really like it, after 35 years of listening to Megadeth I'm thinking it's not their best song.
@@BrettonFerguson you’re right. Everyone’s got their different favorites. To this day, it’s still in my Top 15. It’s fast and fun. It’s fine with me that others don’t like it, but it’s one that people new to Megadeth really should hear as far as I’m concerned.
Dave Mustaine is unmatched in his original guitar riff, leads and overall style in those days---- the band's style in this album was orbiting thrash jazz because of Gar Samuelson (drummer) R.I.P. 1999 - Brad and Lex, keep on the Megadeth Peace Sells album- it's the most furious metal album of all time, next to Metallica's Puppets album, even though they are 2 uniquely styled albums and should never be compared that way. Cheers from Southern Ontario, Canada... Metal soothes the savage soul...
I've seen Megadeth live at least 10 times in my life and this song never gets old! I'd like to see your reaction to their songs "Hook In Mouth", or "Trust", "Lucretia", "Peace Sells But Who's Buying", or "Holy Wars"
He *said* he was out with the boys. I don't think he was. :) Anyway, I love that song because it throws away traditional verses/lyrics/song structure and just throws awesome riffs and guitar solos at you in whatever way Megadeth wants.
this song was first then the conjuring followed by peace sells. which was the song that got airplay. the bass intro to peace sells was used everyday on MTV back in the 80's and nobody knew who it was; it is funny to watch when they realize after hearing peace sells that they had heard the intro several times for it was used several times a day everyday....
Mustaine is one of the greatest guitar solo composers. Sometimes they just slot in so perfectly I get chills. I always think of super-fast harmonies. Last solo here, and at the beginning of The Conjuring spring to mind.
I liked Lexs "They do this cyclone thing" I thought that was really cool never thought about that before even considering the Meg have got a track called 🌪Tornado Of Souls🌪
Megadeth is probably my favorite metal band from what's considered true classic heavy metal music from this Era. If you're not into technical sophisticated music you just won't get it.
u guys gotta remember songs r also made for the mosh Pitt too! for some of the long musical parts, not made for just kicking back on the couch and listening to necessarily . Cool reaction !
You know what I just ate but now I'm going to make some elbow macaroni with butter and some Parmesan Romano cheese on it just from watching this song for some reason!
Yeah, at 3:07 Lex says it's a remaster, 'cause I remember this song sounding a lot different. The original was slathered in reverb, and this version's got a lot more bottom support, and it's just generally tighter. More focussed, actually. I like it. And all the 'repetition' Lex was commenting on at 4:36 is there for the moshers and the drivers. When the pit gets into a good whirl, you want it to last a bit more, and when it's night on the freeway, a few extra bars of what I'll call the _good part_ helps justify pinning the pedal down another half mile or so. _Peace Sells_ is my favorite Megadeth song ever, but this is a hair's breadth second.
Is this Wake up dead a redone version?..Some guitar solo parts seen slightly off from what i remember..Also the "Wake up dead" lyrics at the end have some high pitched back vocals or something..Unless all this just sounds off because of playing off this video..
Just watched the free bird video... I think Lex needs to do the "Metallica instrumental" marathon... .Call of ktulu .Orion .to live is to die . Suicide redemption "To live is to die" is my all time favorite SONG!...EVER
Sometimes you guys don’t get metal. It’s about feeling it, those transitions, switch ups are meant to keep you on your toes… metal is supposed to be passionate even when it’s a slow song.
Yoooooo I haven’t listened to md in forever lmao guitar solos were super big back then and yeah the point of it was to give an idea of what was happening through the music rather than lyrics
when the guitars sound like marching armies or animals it is not a solo and is good to pause, those are rhythm sections. when the guitars sound like screeching birds or screams then those are solo's and never pause. hope this clears things up
I believe in the beginning of the song the lyrics were describing his lie...I was out with the boys....Then his woman at home finds out he was actually with Diana...So he wakes up dead.
do good mourning black friday or my last words off this album...classic. Ive kept a copy of this album since 86 when i was 9. First metal i ever heard...warped me for life..im now 44..lol
It's really cool to appreciate Megadeth music if you had a meatball sausage grinder mother in marinara sauce with melted provolone cheese and maybe a couple of your other favorite condiments don't forget to follow it up with a Frosty or whatever favorite beverage you enjoy!
That Logo takes me back. Had the Misfits inked on my left bicep years n years ago. When I saw Cliff Burton wearing Misfit tees, I nearly died. My hero loving the same music I thought nobody at the time had heard of lol
I always considered this song an Instrumental but not quite...very limited lyrics in this song. And because of that, it's the song that got me hooked on Thrash Metal in the Fall of 1987.
I love Megadeth , I found you guys because of Tom Macdonald , but this is the Rabbit Hole , I am so glad you guys started, after this track I really hope you guys decide to do "Almost Honest" and or "Never Walk Alone" by Megadeth
its a lot easier to appreciate Megadeth if you're a guitarist. Their music is very technical from an instrumental standpoint, Mustaine is a guitar genius!!
well said
Mustaine has an ability to tell a story and conjure emotions just with a guitar... it’s something I’ve never heard reproduced. I honestly believe if it weren’t for Dave we’d have no Metallica
Marty Friedman was a huge force in Megadeth when it comes to a lot of the crazy solos for a large chunk of his stint in the band
Mustaine, is a very underrated guitarist
Im a metal singer and You are spot on. WITHOUT them Im in a world of shit!
This is the only rock song I know where none of it's riffs or melodies get repeated elsewhere in the track after they've been played through. No verses and no choruses, every time there's a change in the song it's a totally new section. And somehow it works beautifully.
That's an excellent description of this masterpiece.
Holy Wars???
@@jhamilton1007 Holy Wars starts and ends the exact same.
@@jhamilton1007 yep and there are others as well. Mustaine is quite the song writer
Vortex by Jinjer is like that too
I was waiting for it to happen, than at (5:15) Lex smiled, and for about 45 sec. went to a place only metalheads know about.
Ticket courtesy of Friedman shredlines.
@@Fabian080690 it is chris poland on guitars, it is also mustaine solo.
@@karasakizbaris Welp, he tried lmao
It was great watching her just teleport away caught up on that sick riff.
I could honestly listen to Lex describe music for hours. She has a very interesting and unique way of interpreting songs and I love to hear her perspectives and takes on little things. She’s super intuitive. Amazing really. And her enthusiasm and spirit is contagious and always fun. Great reaction as always. 👍🏻

Fans of Megadeth and this album, in case you missed it, Brad and Lex reacted to The Conjuring about a week ago. The only thing stopping the Lex train was Brad having to pause.
Good mourning/Black Friday please. Brad will like the lyrics in that one lol
^
This whole album was one of the best thrash albums ever
'The Conjuring' video was the other day, 'Wake Up Dead' today, I'm guessing 'Peace Sells' could(should) be next🤘🤘🤘
Holy S! This takes me back. This whole album is hard as hell. Get some! Thank you.
I had this on cassette in the late 1980s without lyrics and I thought it was about waking up with a hangover lol
It's about a guy who is cheating and is sneaking in hoping he wont be killed in his sleep.
Ya think?
Hey - Brad. I catch a lot of your guy's live streams and I must say... for whatever reason... your live reactions are waaay better than what is portrayed in these TH-cam videos not live. The people who miss out on the streams miss out on your personality man. You are definitely a character, and the duo here feels powerful. Keep up the good work my man.
This song is about Dave Mustaine when he was living with a girl he didn’t want to be with anymore, but only stayed with her because he didn’t have another place to live and was dating a girl he liked on the side.
So he was out with her, not his boys. That was his “cover story”
You really need to react next to:
Mary Jane (for the awesome composition)
And
Liar (for the aggression and shock value)!
Diana!
Yes he said he was out with the boys.
But don't react to Liar. They have much better songs IMO. It is fast though.
@@BrettonFerguson don’t react to Liar?? That song is amazing!
@@KetoFitChef Yeah but I think they have better songs. I'd put liar lower on the list. Musically Liar is good, but the lyrics are kind of... they could be better. This is my opinion. I used to really like it, after 35 years of listening to Megadeth I'm thinking it's not their best song.
@@BrettonFerguson you’re right. Everyone’s got their different favorites. To this day, it’s still in my Top 15. It’s fast and fun. It’s fine with me that others don’t like it, but it’s one that people new to Megadeth really should hear as far as I’m concerned.
Just like Picasso used canvas, Megadeth paints their pictures with their guitar playing…some of the best guitar work ever.
Dave Mustaine is unmatched in his original guitar riff, leads and overall style in those days---- the band's style in this album was orbiting thrash jazz because of Gar Samuelson (drummer) R.I.P. 1999 - Brad and Lex, keep on the Megadeth Peace Sells album- it's the most furious metal album of all time, next to Metallica's Puppets album, even though they are 2 uniquely styled albums and should never be compared that way. Cheers from Southern Ontario, Canada... Metal soothes the savage soul...
And Chris Poland's solos were very jazzy as well. He and Alex Skolnick are my favorites from this era.
I've seen Megadeth live at least 10 times in my life and this song never gets old! I'd like to see your reaction to their songs "Hook In Mouth", or "Trust", "Lucretia", "Peace Sells But Who's Buying", or "Holy Wars"
My Last Words. That song is so freakin good!
THIS WHOLE ALBUM THRASHES!
EVERY SONG!
He *said* he was out with the boys. I don't think he was. :)
Anyway, I love that song because it throws away traditional verses/lyrics/song structure and just throws awesome riffs and guitar solos at you in whatever way Megadeth wants.
This is the super genius that happens when Metal artists are mixed with Jazz musicians!
To me this song always felt like a boss fight music and the boss is the wife.
This song is what offically got me into heavy metal!
My last words - Megadeth is a good one
The sleep - Pantera you should react too 🤙
this is why mustaine benifited from being fired from metallica. it had to be
Y'all explained this video to perfection. Love this reaction.
I'd so buy these 2 folks tickets to a metal show 😂😂
this song was first then the conjuring followed by peace sells. which was the song that got airplay. the bass intro to peace sells was used everyday on MTV back in the 80's and nobody knew who it was; it is funny to watch when they realize after hearing peace sells that they had heard the intro several times for it was used several times a day everyday....
Best headbanging song ever!!
I subscribed just because she knows Metal like all Metal Heads!! She gets it!!
god I love this album!
You paused at the best part, now I gotta go and let the neighbors here it on my home stereo!!!
nice reaction, you guys should do Megadeth She - Wolf LIVE version, it will blow your mind!!!
The Rude Awakening version!
I love that at the third bar of the riff she begins to smile. 🤘🏼😊
Mustaine is one of the greatest guitar solo composers. Sometimes they just slot in so perfectly I get chills. I always think of super-fast harmonies. Last solo here, and at the beginning of The Conjuring spring to mind.
In my darkest hour or good mourning/black friday are both great megadeth songs as well check em out
Do Megadeth “Hook in mouth”. Great song for Brad to analyze.
I liked Lexs "They do this cyclone thing" I thought that was really cool never thought about that before even considering the Meg have got a track called 🌪Tornado Of Souls🌪
Who remembers this being the intro to "Headbangers Ball"?
Peace Sell was more Jazzy than the rest of there albums. Which I found myself gravitating towards more than the rest of their albums.
The look on Lex's face the whole time...just waiting for the opportunity to start banging her head. lol
I used to play this in one of my bands, its a simple idea. Creeping in the house after a boys night
Tune! Sylosis guys!
He said he was out with the boys but was really cheating. Thanks for this review
Black Friday is must... one of their best songs...
Wake Up Dead definitely my favorite song by MEGADETH 🤘🤘
Megadeth is probably my favorite metal band from what's considered true classic heavy metal music from this Era. If you're not into technical sophisticated music you just won't get it.
u guys gotta remember songs r also made for the mosh Pitt too! for some of the long musical parts, not made for just kicking back on the couch and listening to necessarily . Cool reaction !
Oh, you guys already reacted to this one!! Awesome!! You need to checkout My Last Words, also from this album!!
The riffs on that song are epic🤟🏼 its heavy jazz
In my darkest hour for a deep song. Rattlehead for a kickass song
I always imagine the masses jumping to it like to a nu metal Song ....in the last Bouncy Part introduced by “Diana!” F%€&#@ Love that Part.
Do Devils Island or Bad Omen.
They're the best songs on Peace Sells.
Bad Omen is never paid attention to. Such an amazing song!
Nah my last words and good morning are the best songs
daves guitar was untouchable
Was the first Megadeth song I heard MEGA DAVE😈🤘 so many favorites
YES! My all time favorite song by MeGaDeTh! Edit: Lex it is ok to just straight up head bang on this banger.
You know what I just ate but now I'm going to make some elbow macaroni with butter and some Parmesan Romano cheese on it just from watching this song for some reason!

_Peace Sells_ is my favorite Megadeth song ever, but this is a hair's breadth second.
@Brad & Lex
I'm surprised you both haven't done a reaction to So Far, So Good...So What! Album!
Is this Wake up dead a redone version?..Some guitar solo parts seen slightly off from what i remember..Also the "Wake up dead" lyrics at the end have some high pitched back vocals or something..Unless all this just sounds off because of playing off this video..
Remaster.
Secret place, almost honest and train of consequences by Megadeth I think you guys would like.
That smile is so infectious😏
Just watched the free bird video... I think Lex needs to do the "Metallica instrumental" marathon...
.Call of ktulu
.Orion
.to live is to die
. Suicide redemption
"To live is to die" is my all time favorite SONG!...EVER
Sweating Bullets is my all time favorite Megadeath song! I would like to see you guys react to that one!
Sometimes you guys don’t get metal. It’s about feeling it, those transitions, switch ups are meant to keep you on your toes… metal is supposed to be passionate even when it’s a slow song.
I used to know the Drummer Nick... RIP
Nick wasn't the drummer on this album, Gar Samuelson was. Love them both.
@@evyatarhadar8867 Oh yeah that right
Yoooooo I haven’t listened to md in forever lmao guitar solos were super big back then and yeah the point of it was to give an idea of what was happening through the music rather than lyrics
In my darkest hour 😍
when the guitars sound like marching armies or animals it is not a solo and is good to pause, those are rhythm sections.
when the guitars sound like screeching birds or screams then those are solo's and never pause. hope this clears things up
Dillinger Escape Plan - anything from Miss Machine through One of Us is the Killer
One of the best Megadeth songs written.
My fav metal song! Great pick!!
I believe in the beginning of the song the lyrics were describing his lie...I was out with the boys....Then his woman at home finds out he was actually with Diana...So he wakes up dead.
Yes! I have been trying to get someone to react to this song! It is my favorite by
Megadeth!!
Check out Peace Sells, My Last Words, Hook In Mouth, Liar, In My Darkest Hour. Some great tunes from Megadeth.
React to Good Mourning/Black Friday
I'll miss out on flying cars and laser guns but I got to see MegaDeth live.
I love the music video for this one it adds to the vibe.
do good mourning black friday or my last words off this album...classic. Ive kept a copy of this album since 86 when i was 9. First metal i ever heard...warped me for life..im now 44..lol
I love this song 🎵, it’s amazing bass,guitar, drums,even Metallica can’t even roll with this 😂
It's really cool to appreciate Megadeth music if you had a meatball sausage grinder mother in marinara sauce with melted provolone cheese and maybe a couple of your other favorite condiments don't forget to follow it up with a Frosty or whatever favorite beverage you enjoy!
This is the best thrash metal song ever. This is the epitome of thrash.
Damn, that takes me back.
That Logo takes me back. Had the Misfits inked on my left bicep years n years ago. When I saw Cliff Burton wearing Misfit tees, I nearly died. My hero loving the same music I thought nobody at the time had heard of lol
Heard that one in person. After Holy Wars record. Faster too.
Yessss bring on the Megadeth, Sabbath, and Slayer loo
Imagine what Diane was like if Ole' Dave was frettin
Damn I miss your reactions. Please come back!
Listen to peace sells🙏🏻 definitely feel like both of you would love it🤘🏼
Hey Brad , Lex check out the song GOOD MOURNING BLACK FRIDAY also by MEGADETH and also on the PEACE SELLS record
Girl I love you're analysis
‘Artsy’? … no that’s heavy metal 🎸 , you gotta feel it
just wondering do you take any requests for songs to react to
I always considered this song an Instrumental but not quite...very limited lyrics in this song. And because of that, it's the song that got me hooked on Thrash Metal in the Fall of 1987.
Insta liked. Next up Good Mourning Black Friday Please :)
Best Megadeth song imo. Most Metallicaish signature changes, the vid of the kids breaking down the chain link is classic! My fav Deth tune!
These types of songs you don’t need much lyrics to make a story
into the lungs of hell by Megadeth
I love Megadeth , I found you guys because of Tom Macdonald , but this is the Rabbit Hole , I am so glad you guys started, after this track I really hope you guys decide to do "Almost Honest" and or "Never Walk Alone" by Megadeth
Brad, you ain’t feeling this. She gets it!
Please listen to Good Mourning/Black Friday from this album. A song about a serial killer and Dave’s angry voice, just perfect
Lol she likes it he might like it I love you both keep on rocking it ain’t so bad
rammstein wollt ihr das bett in flammen sehen live in Paris! You two will love it!
