Yeah the vocals are really second priority with this band. The instruments the riffs come first! Dave knows that he isn't the best vocalist around. He is first and foremost a guitarist. The vocals are just to give a message.
One of the best albums of all time. If you disagree, you're wrong.
So glad you didn't do a reaction from the remastered version.

Megadeth is the 🐐!!!
Lex was on point when she said “you can’t just walk into megadeth” it’s hard to appreciate what is going on and I like the fact that brad keeps it real with us. I think that a good suggestion would be “she wolf” from the rude awakening dvd, on that live version they extended the solos and added nice melodies that are not hard to follow and those are not in the original track. Also the lyrics are nice so it’s a win-win for you both!

They already covered Good Morning Black Friday I think? If they haven’t then they should. Also The Conjuring from the same album Peace Sells
Yessss!!!! More Megadeth!!!! This whole album is amazing!! Lucretia is another good one from this album. You should definitely checkout Wake Up Dead from the Peace Sells album!!
Nick the drummer (r.i.p) was really into aliens and ufos, and whilst this album covers aliens it does cover a lot of other themes as well, vic the mascot is on every in this one he just happens to be with aliens. In my darkest hour should be the next stop on the megadeth train
Love watching Lex's appreciation grow, and you are absolutely right, you can't just walk into Megadeth! There are soooooo many amazing songs to listen to. She-wolf live is great, Good Mourning/Black Friday is a masterpiece but I would love to see you react to Ashes in Your Mouth. Keep it up Lex! The further down the rabbit hole you go, the more gems you'll find
Lex was really grooving to that 5/4 part. I’m impressed 🤟
I don't have ten ears, but I have a heart, I have a soul... if you can't feel that outstanding solo from Dave at the end of the song, maybe it's because you're not in this world anymore.
This whole album, is amazing! Lucretia is FIRE!!! PS Check out Skindred, they are a unique mix of metal and reggae!

"Advanced Metal". Awesome way to describe it Lex. I like it, and I agree. Everyone in Megadeth (especially this line-up) are absolute top tier musicians. Extremely gifted. There are no sub-par players in this band. The line-up for this album is my favorite line-up to date. Marty Friedman and Nick Menza (R.I.P.) really put their stamp on this.
Great reaction, I really apprecieate your vids! You guys should check out “ In my darkest hour” for the next Megadeth reaction, it’s a really deep song, but Dave’s vocals are incredible and the guitar is awesome too, one of the best metal songs of all time in my opinion 🤘

One of my favorite Megadeth songs. It's based on the novel, "Master of the Five Magics" by Lyndon Hardy.
Wooweee love me some Megadeth, huge catalog of great track's. Two amazing track's that are often overlooked are Hook in Mouth and Poison was the Cure. You two are awesome, blow's my mind the production quality you attained with limited resources. Skill's, my hat's off to ya!

I dont think Hook in Mouth is really underrated right now. Typically yes but the politics bringing it back like Dave shooting the government a bird and telling us, "I told you so".
"Advanced Metal" .....I love it!!
I'd hate to take his ass to a symphony orchestra! 2hrs of Bach & he'd be yelling " Where are th words ?? Is somebody gonna sing??!"😂
This whole album is legendary. Get it all in.
One of the most remarkable Metal albums of all time. If there was an album hall of fame, this would be in it. Marty Friedmans playing is untouchable. I would like to see you guys do a reaction video live from a Megadeth concert. The energy will have you grinning ear to ear.
If you want a different side to Megadeth, "A tout le monde" is a great example. Both versions.
4:28. The Best Megadeth description ever. I takes a fan to know one, and Lex is a fan. Nice.

This is one of Megadeths best songs and it shows just how talented a guitarist that Dave Mustaine really is
Believe me!!! Ashes in your mouth it’s and awesome song!!! From the Countdown to extinction album 👍🏻
You guys just got a new subscriber!!! Loved your content with Five Magics by Megadeth!!! 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽 Keep on Rocking!!!
The fuckin time signatures and transitions on this whole album are honestly slept on!
"complex musicianship" thank you for appreciating it! Cuz it really is.
Very excited for their new album!
The first channel of react that i subscribe, the harmony between you is amazing
I couldn't click fast enough today guys. Lexi n Brad you guys are great..keep up the outstanding work and God bless you two
early in the song he says exactly whom he would have dethroned, given such power to
So good! ❤🎉
theme park of different sounds is a beautiful description brad ;)
“Musical Gymnastics” is damn right Brad. You nailed it! I love metal, but love prog rock too… think you both would enjoy Genesis “Firth of Fifth” - piano 🎹 intro is jaw dropping. It’s British progressive rock musical gymnastics from the same era as YES - Roundabout. Rock with it! 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼
Megadeth-Good Mourning/Black Friday
Dave’s got such a snarl in his voice! It’s like has contempt for the people and things he sings about. Love it!

Great reaction! Love Megadeth, they should win more live polls!🤘Anytime you think of putting MEGADETH on a poll just cancel the poll and play MEGADETH. Lex will back me up on this.
This line up, unbelievably talented.
That was a trip at 8:20 when Lex described them as advanced metal. I had a friend back in the early 80's when we were kids that had a denim jacket covered in metal band patches. There was one huge one that took up the top third of the back that said "MEGADETH The most technically advanced metal band on earth". I had not thought of that in years but soon as Lex said it It was like I was looking at the back of his jacket again. They have a lot of amazing tracks and Dave writes some of the most advanced rhythm parts in metal.

Musical gymnastics. Never heard that analogy before but it's spot on B-rad.

New to the channel.. the lamb of God 11th be reaction reminded me of the first time I heard that.thanks you.
You need to listen to some of their newer stuff. Early 90's up. Everyone always gears to the older stuff, which is awesome, but they have any other great songs as well. Guarantee Brad will enjoy it more as well.
This song is pure art. It's so well crafted. It almost encapsulates fear. It's god level. You can't write this again. It's done. You could die on that outro solo with no regrets. Pure Five Magics.

The whole thing about Megadeth is natural and pure atitude! This song and others are about coruption, gouvernment, lies and people. In one word POWER. Dave just wipes the wail off in his own manner so that everyone can see and understand.
If you love System of a down you should really check out Serj Tankin - Empty Walls the video preferably idk why but it hits me in the feels Note: to pay attention to how the children play
You should check Megadeth - The last words. Their earlier stuff
Megadeth over here, and everybody else over there, ain't no question.
MegadetH Shewolf Live Rude Awakening Jaw dropping musicianship
probably the most 'easy listening' song that Megadeth has is Angry Again. has that nice drive.
My Last words next please! :)
LOVE YOUR REACTIONS....thinking King Diamond is your next big surprise ...the Mansion off of "Abigail"
The lead guitar player at that time was a dude Marty Friedman. He was a mad man.
Megadeth was billed as The World's State of the Art Speed Metal Band
Y'all need to check out sweating bullets by them!!
Megadeth was once described by Dave Mustaine as: State-of-the-art Speed Metal Band
Back in my days (whatever that means) Megadeth style was called Techno Thrash. It made sense as their music was/is very technical.
Hell yes
This is Mustain's throw back to his dungeons and 🐲 days
That was muthufucken FIRE! 🔥 Sick the song is otherworldly. No other band comes close to matching the speed and technical musicianship. There are other bands with that speed or that are heavy with steady head banging riffs and rhythms like say Slayer or Metalica but nothing like this ish. Unreal
You have to remember Megadeth was formed to give Dave a platform, ruling the band with an iron fist. He grew up playing at a time when speed and technicality was king. Every song is designed to showcase Dave. He was always competing with Metallica after being booted out. He elevated the complexity of his music in a game of one upmanship. The Metallica thing drove him to excellence.
I'd love to see your reaction to Megadeth - 13
Megadeth is intense!! Check out-Rust In Peace (Polaris); My Last Words; In My Darkest Hour 🤘
"Dialectic chaos" and "this day we fight" would be a great reaction. They are two different songs but play into each other.
I still say I want her to hear the Ultra Violence by Death Angel. I bed she'd go into orbit.
Captive Honour is a good one to do if you want the lyrics to start right away.
She was impressed she is a fan now
I like both your observations. Like to hear your reaction to Genesis Firth of Fifth. Some older Prog Rock.
You should listen to The Mechanix from Megadeth live from Rude Awakening. Lex will love the guitars on this song.
Bass player Dave ellefson grew up on a farm 60 miles from my home town in Jackson Minnesota has his own brand of coffee ellefson coffee company roast in peace
Lex Is so undeniably turned on by guitar!! At the end if the song I can see her imagining herself playing that guitar solo, while also expressing every note with bodily and facial expressions! Someone give her a guitar and lessons!!! Doesnt matter what song shes listening to - the guitar parts are what she digs most
Great Job Reacting Guys. Please do REPENTLESS by SLAYER. You will love it Lex not sure about Brad
I love it. Advanced Metal. I would consider them State of the Art Metal. Either way, true Metal Gods.
