Dave Mustaine explains how he plays "Symphony of Destruction" - Megadeth.

To answer a few questions here:

- We’re on our phones recording cause he asked us if we wanted to record him teaching the riffs, and why not also keep such cool memory for posterity or maybe, idk.. viewers like you?

- yes, Megadeth tunes down a whole step nowadays

- Video quality? Dirty lens unfortunately 🤷🏼‍♂️

-Why this song and not something else? We were scheduled to play this song with him out of many other songs on the list, so he went ahead and… well, showed us how he plays this song and not a different one...🤔

-no pajamas, the man was wearing jeans

Thanks for stopping by to watch

Ask for a more intricate song next time

Awesome

LOL! Dave's the damn man!

🤘😝🤘

There's just something evil about that chorus.

Thank you, James, for kicking out Dave, and Megadeth were born...

it's so lame that someone that has DAVE FUCKING MUSTAINE in front and they ask about how to play Symphony?? dude ask something more complicated... I know he has his tricks and all but you could do any other question,, how to play something from 1st album or second, Idk, it feels stupid to ask about Symphony...

Don't know what your talking about. A lot of them kept there hair Metallica sold there souls to the corporate suits and went were the $$ was so they did what they were told cut there hair and it looked stupid but James hair was burned in that pyro accident why he didn't grow it back his own personal reason's. I could care less I'm sticking with 80's Metallica getting more into Megadeth they didn't go radio friendly.

The world could never again produce a guitarist like Dave Mustaine. Mustaine is like what Mos Def or DMX is to rap. He came up in an era where every fucking asshole plays the guitar and even at that time his genius was recognizable. In this day and age where nobody plays any instrument anymore, and for someone who's held his own in the toughest times of metal, he will go down in history as a Guitar God.

Bro cómo hiciste para estar con el, te felicito, muchos quisiéramos estár en tu lugar, gracias a ti he aprendido muchos riffs, ojalá algún día tener el honor de conocerlo cómo tú, grande solo riffs, saludos desde 🇨🇴

I feel like supernatural forces wrote the chorus.

what does choke the shit out of it mean? like grip the fuck out or palm mute the fuck out of it?

😉😛

Run Dave 3 km every day..You must live.

Megadeth has always been better than Metallica in my opinion

The Mozart of rhythm guitar!
How he sings and plays that shit is
“Something i don’t understand” lol

Does Harmonizing guitar player bite?
Also WTF is a Harmonizing guitar player?

I met Mustaine at a restaurant once - we’d accidentally been given his table. Apparently he was fond of the restaurant and had a specific table he liked, and the management had messed up and gotten their days wrong, (it was Tuesday and they thought he was coming on Thursday or something like that). Anyway, the manager, completely embarrassed (this is a pretty nice restaurant) comes by and says “I’m so sorry, but we’d like to move you to another table if you could be troubled, and we’ll gladly compensate you for the cost of the meal and any other meal you’d like while you’re in town.” My sister and cousin were both like “Yeah that’s cool.” and I kind of played the asshole a bit. “I’m sorry, I just don’t understand. We’ve been here for 15 minutes - we’ve just ordered. Can’t we finish our meal here?” Then out of nowhere Mustaine shows up next to the manager and says “Paul, these guys can finish. We’ll be at the bar. I got some time.” And I (being a big Megadeth fan) said “Oh wow, uh… I had no idea. Please feel free to give them the table.” Mustaine was grateful, shook my hand and said thanks, then gave me a card with his number on it and told me to give him a call later. After working up the nerve, I gave him a call that night, and to make a long story short, we had a glorious 11 month love affair, man on man, that I shall never forget. Our bodies intertwined as one, and from the beauty of Frankfurt, to Shanghai, to the snorkeling in Boracay, Dave Mustaine and I made glorious gay love to each other on six of the seven continents.

Legend

Ginger rock stars do not age well...
Axl Rose looks like he could be Dave's fat twin

He's opening for five finger death punch. 😂😂😂😞😞

Very cool Dave took a few mins to show how it’s done

I like Dave a lot he's just a down to earth cool person!!👍😊🎸 what a great guitar player also love those riffs so cool and melodic

God bless this crazy mofo!!! Love his music!

Mind you,, he is singing over those fricking Riffs!!! Dave, you are one badass player...

Damn. His playing seems more like that of a bass player than a guitarist. Sick right?

A god amongst mortals. All hail Dave Mustaine!

Poor guy...

such a massive guitar sound lml

"Yeah do this do this do this do this do this do this do this and then you're done photo op.". Must not be the easiest guy to keep up with.

What a gorgeous guitar sound.

Эту и так все играют кто не лень. Интереснее было бы разбор Loved to Death посмотреть...

Useless info

Aguante megadeth 🇦🇷🤘

Would have been really cool if Mustaine and Hetfield wrote a real headbanger tune with thick and mean sounding guitars!
