Symphony is to Megadeth what Enter Sandman is to Metallica.
Ishan Pandita totally, simple the most commerical and also overplayed
A kick ass but overplayed song wich now everyone underrates when is a great classic song for Metal
Ishan Pandita and Walk is to Pantera
Kenny Omega #PushCesaro symphony of destruction was played on pop music radio stations. Just like sand man
Kenny Omega #PushCesaro it is a Shame that enter sandman is more famous than fight fire with fire, battery, master of puppets, ...and justice for all.
Enter sandman It is not by any mean a bad song but some metallica songs are underrated
Every megadeth riff is a great riff
Facts
exactly what i said when i saw this
Every Riff is THRASH 🤘👍
I'd include 'In My Darkest Hour' and at least one riff after 1992, one of following:
Youthanasia: The Killing Road
System: Die Dead Enough (intro) or Kick The Chair
Abominations: Washington Is Next
Endgame: This Day We Fight
Dystopia: The Threat Is Real
Note: yeah, it's really hard to pick only 10
Andriy Vasylenko What about a bad omen
Andriy Vasylenko I think that Take No Prisoners should've also made this list, it's a really awesome riff. Also I love your videos, keep up the good work man!
Andriy Vasylenko I'm a big fan of your work.Keep rocking!
Andriy Vasylenko Oh my god, I found you here :)
Hi frrrrriends
I think it should be "Top 50 Megadeth riffs"
I think it should be " rust in peace riffs"
It should be "Megadeth's entire discography riffs"
"You take a mortal man.
And put him in Dave Grohl."
Watch him be cum of god😜
2:44 That guy with the Pikachu hoodie. Now that's metal AF \m/
Ravien sure on a five finger death punch conceet
THERE is no such thing as ten greatest megadeth riffs .. there is a album called rust in peace ,,and all the riffs from it are the greatest
Maksudul Islam Tonugg
Maksudul Islam Tonu eh disagreed, my favorite albums are dystopia,kilmb and so far so good so what
Lol that's a copied comment from another video. You just changed "songs" to "riffs".
RIP was a very balanced album of great riffs, solos and bass playing but th best riffs were from KIMB. That album was basically just a riff fest. Even Dave himself said that he regrets using as many of his crazy riffs in it and that he should've saved some to do more songs or use them in another album.
Maksudul Islam Tonu fuck yeah!
Im Suprised a song from KIMB finally got some attention
People say they didn't get good until rust in peace. People are fucking dumb.
Jedi nite79 people say that? But Peace Sells is a masterpiece too..
Peace sells > Killing is my buisness > Rust in peace > So far,so good, so what!
Every record after those 4 is not worth mentioning, only a couple good tracks. but those 4 masterpieces make megadeth my favorite band. just my opinion anyway
Fillisel They are ok, but nothing special and nothing i would listen and really get into
Dude, Dystopia really deserves attention too. I feel like the new line up is the closest we'll get to RIP line up
The Conjuring? The whole song should be on this list!
xXAscendingPhoenixXx Exactly!!
You read my mind.
And black friday
That riff at 3:00 is so fucking good
Bad omen also
Five. Fucking. Magics!!!
Thank you Loudwire guys for doing some justice to this criminally underrated song
All the megadeth riffs are the greatest
Hangar 18 should be higher and where is take no prisoners and killing the king?
Jan Pszczółkowski these riffs are probably in a random order. It's not one of the top10 videos bro
Maybe...
Jan Pszczółkowski They play songs lower than the original because Dave's voice changed
Matteo Priotto
Higher as in higher in the ranking/list.
MegaThrasher95 oh sorry, I'm stupid lol
My list:
10. Rattlehead
9. Sweating Bullets
8. Devil's Island
7. Wake Up Dead
6. Symphony Of Destruction
5. The Mechanix
4. Peace Sells
3. I Ain't Superstitious
2. Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
1. Head Crusher
Angry again?
I ain’t superstitious is a cover song
@@dinobambino7724 thats true but they megadethified it
Bad omen and liar
Instead of these "Greatest Riffs" videos should be an "Underrated Riffs" video. I mean, everybody can roughly guess what the "greatest riffs" of each band are.
Head Crusher?
Fatal Koncept Endgame is an amazing album
Amazing Kids In the Hall sketch.
Megadeth has so many great riffs how can you only pick 10? Thats why so many songs with great riffs are not here.
Lucretia? Maybe it's just me...
That fucking introo!!!! OMG!
Yeah,you're totally right
guitarfreak 901 truuu
You are not alone
favorite song by megadeth.... if not then its in the top 5
The end riff to peace sells is great
Tornado of souls at 9?!?!?
U are joking!
its not a top 10...
if it isn't a top 10, they shouldn't be ranking the riffs with numbers then
I agree. Tornado of souls should be 2 or 3
Anantha Raj ikr
Behind "Angry Again"..that's what we call blasphemy..
Glad to see Five Magics get some recognition.
Same. Great song.
DEATH RIFFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
pranay singh It's impossible to pick top 10
they Did with Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer so they can, they gonna get shit for it thou
pranay singh DETH RIFFS*
We don't need a top 10 death riffs they are all tied for #1
Pranshu Bhagat Underrated comment
You guys didnt even show the main riff for tornado of souls
No mechanix?
No warnings ?
Miz Fits No second chance?
No second chance?
Edgars Smiltins No, go.
Seriously man, I never got the chance.
"Trust" has one of the best guitar riffs ever recorded.
Holy wars.... top 3 metal riffs ever, I'm never getting tired of it
That riff in mid song The Conjuring is so underrated but one of the best riffs in history
Pikachu in the mosh pit, Didn't know that Pokemon loved metal.
Felino Amarelu steel-type Pokémon probably do
Matteo Priotto Metal type
Felino Amarelu yeah, actually it's called steel type in Pokémon games
Matteo Priotto True, but Metal type in this case is created. For that rare metal Pikachu.
Felino Amarelu deal. Metal Pikachu confirmed
Take no Prisoners! Otherwise good list.
There should be a second chance for this
Or Warning
lucky dominguez lmao
Kevin Gs WK Well Metallica didn't give Dave a second chase so neither does Loudwire.
Chris Newkirk lol!
Kevin Gs WK a sequel, if you will
Ashes in your mouth?? Head Crusher?? I Worked Hard on Those Riffs Ya Know!!
Are you kidding, you left out the breakdown in The Conjuring!!!
This should be renamed to "some of megadeths best riffs"...every song has a awesome guitar riff In it
Peace sells?
In my darkest hour?
Symphony at 10?...
Loudwire = Fuck logic!
Rename it to "some Megadeth riffs"
the conjuring? 99 ways to die? kick the chair? rattlehead? last rites? chosen ones, high speed dirt? poison was the cure?
YES! I WAS WAITING SO LONG ON THIS!
Thanks you loudwire!
every megadeth riff is my #1
I like your username
BirdsElopeWithTheSun - Yeah, those are songs from Load/Reload I actually like!
A 10 best riff countdown for Megadeth is definitely not enough!
Set the world afire is such a fucking thrashing song
Top 10 Death riffs!!!
What about The Threat is Real’s intro riff? That one kicks ass, as does Poison was the Cure, The Conjuring, etc.
No peace sells, huh.
No. Easily the most overrated Megadeth song besides Symphony of Destruction
Then how come Symphony of Destruction got here?
Fatal Koncept overrated? Fuck no. Overplayed? Yeah
The more iconic riff in peace sells doesn't come until the final part of the song, and most of these were intro riffs.
Fatal Koncept overrated Megadeth song but a very good Megadeth song
#1. Take No Prisoners chopper blades riff in the intro
#2. Good Mourning / Black Friday verse break-in hook after Dave's 1st solo.
#3. Rust In Peace...Polaris outro
#4. Hangar 18 rhythm bridge in the midst of the solo duel
#5. Killing is my Business intro
#6. Holy Wars intro
#7. Peace Sells thrash lick ( same as Junior's bass intro )
#8. Poison was the Cure verse
#9. Kick the Chair
#10. Set the world afire verse break-in
Yes, Set The World Afire!
Vic Rattlehead I was very surprised
where is Master of Puppets???
That's a Metallica riff, stupid.
Troy I thimk you didnt get the joke,,. Have you seen the grammys?
Fuck Metalica , they could never in their Hack careers Play any of these songs ... so Fucken Lame
Frank Peltier they could
VENOM1242 0 bahahaha Yea if they learned more than powerchords and open E Strings , Never on their Fucken lives , the only songs of Dave's they could do , are the simple easy ones, he wrote as a kid , the ones they stole . and they couldn't even do those right , that's why they took out the fillers and slowed down the tempos .... it helps if you know what your talking about BOY
We all know what's number 1...
That riff from the middle of The Conjuring is WAY more deserving than Angry Again.
That riff on Hangar 18 (about 3:30 into the song) is one of the coolest riffs ever! Why isn't it on this list!!??
Love megadeth❤❤❤
Tornado of souls from San Diego is one of their greatest live performances
Mr.Monkeyman The only downside to that was that Marty wasn't there to play the solo....
and that the voice was re-recorded on the studio...
Fillisel I'm sure he's talking about the more recent one.
I agree
The whole thing is oberdubbed in the studio :/
This is pretty much a list of their hits. They have so many other good songs with such great riffs. Only song I give it to on this list is 5 Magics.
I for one think "Addicted to Chaos" should have been on here. Main riff of that song is catchy as hell.
Top 10: Death, Mastodon, Morbid Angel, Alice in Chains, Black Sabbath, Voivod, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden riffs. Maybe you can do some for solos?
Loudwire fucked up, so here's the real list:
10 Peace Sells... But Who's Bying?
9 Wake Up Dead
8 Washington Is Next
7 Five Magics
6 Rattlehead
5 Dread & The Fugitive Mind
4 Go To Hell
3 Tornado Of Souls
2 In My Darkest Hour
1 Holy Wars... The Punishment Due
Megadeth! Megadeth! Aguante Megadeth! 🤘🇦🇷
Didnt even scratch the surface of cool riffs from megadeth. All of the music they make are straigh flames
What no Dawn Patrol? There's no guitar but that bass line is kickass!
No reckoning day??? No high speed dirt
No second chance?
Where is high speed dirt and the conjuring
Saw them two days ago and damn all their riffs kick major ass. Amazing band!
Number 2 made me happy
Hangar 18 should be in higher position
Top 10 Kreator Riffs plz!
Take No Prisoners is brutal as fuck. Should be on here.
Five Magics and My Last Words are great tunes. So many fuckin tight riffs from their catalog it's just amazing
The Conjuring >
Easy, all of them
Top 10:
10. Devil's Island
9. Hangar 18
8. My Last Words
7. Holy Wars
6. Wake Up Dead
5. Bad Omen
4. Good Mourning/Black Friday
3. Lucretia
2. Killing Is My Business
1. Tornado of Souls
(Yeah, as you've probably guessed, Peace Sells is my all-time favourite album :-D)
Fun fact of the day:
“Set the World Afire” was originally named “Megadeth”, because Dave wanted it to be a song name instead of the band name, until it was later suggested to Dave that the band be called Megadeth from one of his auditioned singers.
The Four Horsemen should be here!!

Sorry, I mean Mechanix.
It's a miracle that you didn't get about 100000 hate replies :)
I think that Creeping death from the album St Anger could've been the first of all. I always loved megadeth, it's a shame that Cliff Burton had to die so young tho
Fidozo15 Can't tell if you're trolling or actually serious 😑
A Cute Little Pug Really dude, it's so damn obvious
A Cute Little Pug you have to be fucking stupid to not realize he is trolling. Your probably fucking trolling people by saying you can't tell if he is...
Lmao the best troll ever. 😂
Damn, that video of 'Holy Wars' is one that is tuned up a whole step by some random youtube guys who adjusts newer Megadeth performance to E standard so they sound right. Cold blooded!!
Hook in Mouth should have been up there
But which Megadeth guitar riff does Corey Taylor think is the best?
No Battery?? Sad but True? Blackened?? Trapped Under Ice?? Enter Sandman?! No second chance?!?!1!!
wardkdouglas most songs of these are Kirk
It's a miracle that you didn't get about 100000000 hate replies :)
The conjuring be like: No warning? No second chance?
You guys kind of missed the best section of Tornado of Souls, it was cut just in time to miss it!!
Symphony of Destruction is overrated af
Donny M Its Catchy, But Simple...
Donny M yeah, but is catchy and heavy so what gives
No its not it's a heavy as fuck riff and also quite simple
BILLONY S simplicity is beauty you know...
Agreed. The riff IS heavy but its boring asf, the whole song is dull and i will never understand the amount of attention it gets
This is top ten popular riffs, what about the end to polaris, prisoners intro and mid part riff, good morning black friday verse, holy wars verse riff and so many more
Loudwire needs a series called “30 greatest riffs” for bands like megadeth and pantera
Seeing them October 15 opening for the scorpions. I cannot wait
Does anyone know the opening song that Loudwire uses? I would really like to know if someone knows.
Where is the clean riff from Good Morning/ Black Friday?
getting a Jackson king V very soon gonna play some Megadeth on it
I fucking love the work on Tornado of Souls. It quickly became my favorite song of theirs.
Bad Omen and Liar and hook in mouth have some amazing riffs and as well as devils island
Ashes in Your Mouth? Rattlehead? Good Mourning/Black Friday? The Conjuring? Hook in Mouth? Foreclosure of a Dream? The Killing Road? This list is 10 Iconic Megadeth Riffs. Missing all the great ones, at least one from my list should be in it.
Glad I'm not alone in my love for Hanger 18.
lol just met Mustaine yesterday afternoon before a Megadeth show, he was a chill dude, then, during the show he was pissed af ahah
Usually these "Greatest Riffs" videos suck and seem to be made by people that aren't even guitar players, but this one was not that bad, although I would remove Angry Again. Also I was SO HAPPY to see the Killing is My Business riff included, and included high up on the list. The first time I heard that riff back in '85, I thought it was the most bad-ass riff I had ever heard. It still gives me goose bumps 32 years later. Finally, I would have had a hard time making this list... Megadeth has just had so many killer riffs over the years.
Shout out to the dude in the mosh pit wearing the Pikachu hoodie during Holy Wars.
You guys should do top 10 Nuclear Assault riffs!
The beginning of Head Crusher is godly.
0:32 can someone get the exact link to the live performance please!!!
Nice list, especially happy to see angry again.
Never clicked a annotation faster in my life.
Look down the cross
In my darkest hour
The conjuring
Head crusher
Sweating bullets
Kill the king
No honoroble mention ?!?!
I was headbanging so hard this video nearly took out my ponytail
Killing Is My Business is just so damn groovy! Love it Deth!
Megadeth fucking Rules
This should have been like a top 25 or top 50 greatest Megadeth riffs... just sayin.
