Youthanasia is my favorite Megadeth album.... those 3 records between Rust, Countdown, and Youthanasia..man, Dave was really on fire throughout that period. Best lineup!
It’s 1994. Much earlier than Metallica’s therapy. 7 years. Believe me in 2001 Megadeth was basically no more. This version at least. The absolute best version. Youthanasia is a great album, but it’s not Countdown or RIP.
The best lineup this band has ever had. I bought this album the exact day it came out in 1994, I was 17 and the world was mine! I used to learn all the drums parts of each songs by heart playing along tracks in my parents basement with my shitty drums. I have the utmost of respect for Nick Menza, he was such a wonderful and creative drummer.
I had the pleasure of meeting Nick Menza on the Youthanasia tour and he was super nice, friendly and down to earth. Watching this, I'm very sad he died so young.
I was 16 and I remember riding my bike to the record shop to get it the day it was released. I think I like the album more now that Im older and able to play most of the guitar parts. It was so ahead of its time.
Nevermind writing one. Lyrics, riffs, rhythms, leads, drum fills, etc. etc. People take all that for granted. Someone will say "awe that guitarist sucks", but don't take into consideration the fact of composting an entire album worth of material that'll be worthy of at least gold status...
Its so cool to see so many people rediscovering just how great Youthanasia is. The songwriting alone is on another level, and the production quality is in another galaxy.
25:00 It was so cool watching the reactions of the band members seeing the cover for the first time. As an Art Director, when you put hours and hours into something and present something to a client, you never know how they will react. Sometimes you just nail it, other times you get surprised at how different opinions can be. Plus, back in the day, Art Directors where really artists as well as craftsmen. You couldn't just change everything on a computer to your liking and try different things out. You had to have a very clear vision of what you wanted and how to get there, because this could take you weeks of work.
I've been a fan of Metallica for almost 30 years now, and I'd have to agree with you. I listen to Megadeth and I can feel the quality of their musicianship far exceed that of Metallica. Moreover, Megadeth never sold out. Fuck Metallica!!!!!!!!!
Your so right . I was a big Metallica fan but lately I been listening more to Megedeth and I find their music is more consistent when you look at their whole catalogue . Sure there is 1 or 2 albums that may have been not huge favorites but any great artist with a long career is going to have an off album . I lost interest in Metallica after the black album because in my opinion they lost their hunger . Obviously Mustaines search for the best and most technical musicians that he could find in his drive to be better then Metallica shows in the music . I'm reading Mustaines book on his life and its one of the best biographys I have read . He's had a colorful life and its pretty funny the stories he mentions. Also because of listening to more Megedeth I started listening to Marty Friedmans solo work especially the Japanese stuff which is priceless ...lol. The book just made me a bigger fan of them .
LOVE this album, probably the 4 strongest songs to start any album, Train Of Consequences and Tout Le Monde are epic, as are the others. DM, MF, DE & NM simply legends.
I listen to Youthanasia & Countdown more than any other Megadeth album. I have a huge love for So Far, So What for the production and it being my first listen to the band.
Youthanasia is a masterpiece imo. As much as Rust in Peace is a thrash masterpiece, youth is more mellow, but geniusly written. Dave Mustang is a freaking genius songwriter.
KIMB to Youth was an incredible run. I think CW is a step down and it took a few to get back, but TSHF picked up right where Youth left off and was a true return to form for Dave.
1995 Monsters of Rock in Chile …I was 17 and Megadeth was on top of the game …they were touring Youthanasia and I can tell you their sound was the best ever …RIP Nick Menza …he was only 51 …didn’t make it to 60, like he wanted to …I was hoping to see this line up again …to me, they were the Dream Team …Best line up ever 🤘🏼🤟🏼 th-cam.com/video/vzdjwxigatg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Hmsio2bjK7rV6iJM
Both Vortex and FFF were written in this time period. I had heard a rumor, and I'm not sure if it's true or not, but if it is, it would make a lot of sense. I heard that Max Norman had this belief that that like, 140 or 160 bpm is the perfect time signature for people to absorb and enjoy music. So he wanted all the songs recorded at the same speed. So what ended up happening is that all the slow songs are too fast and all the fast songs are too slow. If that's the case, that would explain why Vortex and FFF were left off the album. Like I said though, I'm not sure how true that story is.
@titusprime5240 Cryptic is just a great album in general. If I had to pick the weakest song on it, I would say that would go to A Secret Place. One of my personal favorites is Disintegrators. Mastermind is really good as well.
The lyrics are so true to life as always since 1986 when I first heard them. I can totally relate to so many of the lyrics and understand where he’s coming from about life experiences. And his apocalyptic vision’s is really scary but accurate
This album is a beast! Very heavy sound and at the same time melodic and epic! Musicians of the highest level produced a masterpiece! My favorite album of theirs! 🤘🏻
marty: there is no way this is not gonna be our best album everybody: hating on this one not being as the classics me: always thought it was the best megadeth album lmao
@@theKATofficial2 God, shut the fuck up, salty. People older than you criticized you when you were younger and you are doing the same. I guess it's just a natural process of getting old.
Still my go to Megadeth album. It's a masterpiece. Never gets enough credit or mentions when fans discuss their best albums. It's absolutely one of them if not the best one.
Youth was the last ever combination of tone and melody from the band. The heavy tone of Angry Again and the melody of Countdown that's what you will find in Youthanasia. There have been solid songs since riff-wise but not so much melody wise. It is also the last album where you will hear a descent lullaby / spleen type of song (A tout le Monde) and as much as I love DM' songwriting in Countdown (the most accomplished album to date for me) and Youthanasia, he has also proven since that he could write some serious cheese. I think what has been missing is this ability DM had to get the heaviness to serve the melody. In some of the 2000 stuff (past Risk) the dirt and the melody never seemed to combine, to me it always felt like Dave was trying to put two songs into one with two completely different vibes. "The hardest part of letting go" or "Dance in the Rain" which has a super catchy chorus and then goes completely thrashy bonkers a la Set the World on Fire, God knows why. The balance that was so perfectly found in the 90s just was not there. The solo have not been super inspiring either, fast and technical sure but again the grove and melody were absent. The departure of Marty Friedman sure took its toll in this department. Now the good news is, Dystopia while it has not brought the melody back certainly has brought the consistency. There is no more wandering like a lost soul, it is direct, it is brutal, it knows what it wants. It is RIP territory. Kiko does not have the grove almost jazzy style of Marty, that unorthodox streak that gave us insane solos but he certainly have the skills and a style of his own to make it interesting. Megadeth won't go back to their 90s style I know that because Marty Friedman is not there (and yet everytime I watch a recent video of his, he seems to play Megadeth or heavy metal stuff suggesting he might be over with the pop exploration?) but Kiko Loureiro may have a streak of his own that we are yet to see. We saw with Marty which means Dave Mustaine is more open to outside ideas that some journos may have suggested in the past. In that respect I am curious to see in what direction the next album will go. It is a strange feeling looking at Megadeth now because as good as Dystopia was in the pure RIP inspiration, I am under the impression that Dave Mustaine best chance of getting something big and new is by reuniting with Friedman who in recent times as I said has appeared to be rejuvinated by the metal genre. With Risk, it was one album too far for Marty, maybe even Cryptic he did not have the hunger or will or passion for metal. If he has that again, with Dave's current riffing... sky is the limit. Could you have three guitarists in Megadeth with Loureiro? Either way, since it seems unlikely to happen just now, it would be at least nice to see that Kiko Loureiro is really bringing something to the plate melody-wise. And yes Nick Menza did not get to see 60yo sadly but having watched some of his drum solos...I honestly don't know how you would manage to avoid some sort of heart failure, some of this stuff was more violent than playing squash. You are a drummer past 40, you better have some regular cardio checks for safety.
Last minute...love Dave with the kids, and he pulled a 'Oh nee, toch niet'. Great album, fond memories and a lot of practing back then playing the songs... :D Combo of raw Dave, with silky smooth Marty on guitars, gotta love it
Same here. Megadeth has been my favorite band since SFSGSW. A friend made a tape for me with that album, and I loved them since. Countdown was definitely a departure from the sound of every album before it, but with Youthanasia came out, it was so drastically different to me. I loved the first 3 tracks, and Killing Road. But, man I couldn't get into the rest. It felt so polished, without any of the angst and rawness of the first few efforts. CTE still had that Megadeth sound, even it it was also more polished and commercial. I never got how people would say that it's their favorite album. It took years for me to understand how great that album truly is.
@@PearHellforge probably Dave wrote it and they were practicing. In this video you can also spot Nick jamming to We The People, wich was released on Th1rt3en
@@bencepatyi4032 They are fairly similar, but if you pay close attention, it's the never walk alone riff. I know vortex was also made around this time, but maybe it was done as a variation of never walk alone. Or backwards, I dunno lol
man i miss having marty in megadeth ... he was fn sick!!!, but hes doing insanly well in japan hes a megastar over there , all the best to him forsure he seems way happier
10:51 “I want to live to be 60” MANN rest in peace Nick Menza 😢 you’re loved dearly.
It's terribly sad. Unfortunately, drummers seem to have the greatest chance to die a premature death.
he made 64 he reached above his goal

I need to give youthanasia more time.
No question it's the best lineup
@@timgonzales2891i dont like it

Once is an error, twice is JAZZ
Haha good one !
Chromaticism and stuff 🤣🤣🤣
three times a lady
right down on sheet music, it's a standard.
It's amazing they were able to complete a entire album without a therapist following them around for the entire process
🤣😂🤣😂
Gold bro😂
i see what you did there
Well they didn't have Lars Ulrich to whine and bitch around all day.
It’s 1994. Much earlier than Metallica’s therapy. 7 years. Believe me in 2001 Megadeth was basically no more. This version at least. The absolute best version. Youthanasia is a great album, but it’s not Countdown or RIP.
I discovered Megadeth with this album. Me walking in this record store, was my best decision ever.
God bless you and all the rattleheads! Jesus saves sinners! If you like it heavy, MEGADETH weighs a ton!
The older I get the more I appreciate Megadeth. Especially Dave’s lyrics
Oh hi there, Benjamin Button.
This is gold. I want one of these for every album.
The best lineup this band has ever had. I bought this album the exact day it came out in 1994, I was 17 and the world was mine! I used to learn all the drums parts of each songs by heart playing along tracks in my parents basement with my shitty drums. I have the utmost of respect for Nick Menza, he was such a wonderful and creative drummer.
I had the pleasure of meeting Nick Menza on the Youthanasia tour and he was super nice, friendly and down to earth. Watching this, I'm very sad he died so young.
Cheers mate. I was also 17 in 1994. Greatest time of my life.
I was 16 and I remember riding my bike to the record shop to get it the day it was released. I think I like the album more now that Im older and able to play most of the guitar parts. It was so ahead of its time.
It came out on Halloween 🎃 I got the cd and t shirt edition came in a box I still have it
God bless you and all the rattleheads! Jesus saves sinners! If you like it heavy, MEGADETH weighs a ton
Nick was such an Incredible kick ass Drummer
Amazing how much work goes into recording an album
Well, you dont have to build your own studio.
Nevermind writing one. Lyrics, riffs, rhythms, leads, drum fills, etc. etc. People take all that for granted.
Someone will say "awe that guitarist sucks", but don't take into consideration the fact of composting an entire album worth of material that'll be worthy of at least gold status...
This has stood as my favorite Meg record ever since 16 years old. 45 now. Hail Youthanasia!
6:34
Marty playing Never Walk Alone from United Abominations :D
They had so fucking much material at this point...
never notised that damn
It's Vortex. Dave used that riff twice.
Damn you're right, never walk alone riff is just a bit faster, same notes.
Its sad the era of VHS homevideos are gone and forgotten
Actually alive and well on here.
But it hasn't if we are here watching it lol
Got VHS too 🤟
I´m very glad we have 1080p and 4K now
Its so cool to see so many people rediscovering just how great Youthanasia is. The songwriting alone is on another level, and the production quality is in another galaxy.
This has always been my fav album by them. So many iconic riffs.
@@crunchwrapsupremium1053 It probably the best metal album ever written. I hope Dave puts out a 30th anniversary special edition.
@@sole__doubt Hopefully it's like the original. The remasters were awful.
@@crunchwrapsupremium1053 Agreed
Everyone goes on about how great Rust in Peace and Peace Sells are, but Youthanasia is fucking incredible.
Totally agree best album you can play from start to finish for deth. They lagged on totally listenable albums for me.
Best album for me.
It's not that great and the producer sucked the thrash out of it by making the band slow down.
Those 2 albums sound like pots and pans
@toranarama1 😂😂😂
Just started to listen again after a couple of decades. This should be fun. R.I.P. Nick
"Is that your little sister? Do you beat her up? That's cool" fucking Dave lol.

Hugh Syme did a lot of the Rush covers as well...
AMEN
By that time, Megadeth were above and beyond Metallica in terms of music quality, and it has been ever since
Totally agree
Foda se, just enjoy the two bands man, turn the page.
No :]

Oh wow! 😳😭😭😭
Awesome I love how he taught the kids Jackson all the way baddest best guitar ever made.

Best album. I wore this VHS out back in the day
God I love the Killing Road solo 38:41
And I wonder if this was the moment Marty realized he wasn't into the music anymore - 46:44
Pretty sure he was talking about the harmonica playing
I think he's making a joke about the harmonica solos being "too heavy for Megadeth" hahah

Vortex and FFF are my favorite songs off Cryptic Writings.

@@backintheday3097 first time I heard that song was on the Strangeland soundtrack if you remember that weird movie with Dew Snider.
@backintheday3097 you're correct. I just seen Dave say that in an interview a few weeks ago. It's an older interview, but he did say that.
My Megadeth Favorite Album...One of The Best Metal Album of All Time...
The lyrics are so true to life as always since 1986 when I first heard them.
I can totally relate to so many of the lyrics and understand where he’s coming from about life experiences.
And his apocalyptic vision’s is really scary but accurate
14:07 Thats Vortex from the Cryptic writings record
Which later becomes never walk alone a call to arms
drumbeat 7:23 is in "We The People" wish we would get the music part 4:24-5:20
So basically what I'm getting out of this is Nick and Marty gave Megadeth like 10 years worth of material to work with 🤣 amazing
it's really awesome to hear all the alternative parts before the final form of riffs, vocal accents, guitar solos etc

One of the best "Making Of" documentaries ever.
around 6:40, that's Never Walk Alone from UA at a slower tempo!!
so marty wrote that riff?
@@PearHellforge probably Dave wrote it and they were practicing. In this video you can also spot Nick jamming to We The People, wich was released on Th1rt3en
@@Nestorglass Well it is Vortex from Cryptic Writings. It has the same riff.
@@bencepatyi4032 They are fairly similar, but if you pay close attention, it's the never walk alone riff. I know vortex was also made around this time, but maybe it was done as a variation of never walk alone. Or backwards, I dunno lol
@@Nestorglass when you hear hoofbeats, think of horses, not zebras.
RIP MENZS and tanks for all the good stuf!!!!
This video is a treasure, lethal weapons lethal playing
Blue print of megadeth root
Amazing work
One more comment. I think that Train of consequences should have been as big a hit as Enter Sandman. Great documentary!!
I would like to have Dave as my teacher
Wish they had used more of Marty's leads heard in this. His solo stuff at 40:25 and 41:14 was insane and the rhythum under it was awesome too!
Amazing register, The best álbum
Hard, looking at this, to imagine everything that will happen next 😥
I’ll never be able to un-hear the cow bell clic trac 😆
Megacumbia
