  1. I thought his piano was Offspring – 'Gone Away'. I like other older Megadeth albums as a whole better than Countdown, but as individual songs some of my favorites are on Countdown. Ashes, Captive Honor especially.

  2. For a more recent Megadeth song.. I would highly recommend "Poisonous Shadows"

    To me there are just some songs that have that epic feel.. like they are intended to be played in a mega theater in front of hundreds of thousands of fans.. complete with a backing orchestra.

    A few examples would be:

    Guns and Roses – November Rain
    Iron Maiden – Empire of the Clouds
    Ted Nugent – Stranglehold
    Black Sabbath – Heaven and Hell
    Alanis Morrissett (sp?) – Uninvited
    Peter Frampton – Do You Feel Like We Do

    Songs of this type are, to me anyway, larger than life.. so to speak.. and meant to be felt more than heard.

  4. Interesting to see how his mind processes the music. A more subtle indication; even though he might sit still for a moment, his eyes will bounce left and right, as if he’s tracking his hand movements on the keys. He hears the notes and subconsciously his eyes are finding their respective locations on the piano.
    I’m a little surprised you haven’t played him Queensryche, Take Hold of the Flame. I know a lot of folks have done reaction videos to it, but most of them are Vocalists. I heard him say something about his dislike for Jon Oliva’s voice. He doesn’t like those high shrieking registers. It would be interesting to see him process Geoff’s voice, plus being an overall classic metal song. Cheers!

  5. While you listened to Judson's piano intro, you moved such with the chair, i feared you are close to the stage's edge and just let you fall down to escape from that mad world.
    Ok, this comment might annoy people. So, i am actually just happy, that whatever algorithm made me find you to listen to new aspects in analyzing great music.

  6. Yes this is a good song and all but the album has a lot of other great songs. Ashes in Your Mouth, Captive Honor and my personal favorite Foreclosure of a Dream. It's always Symphony

  7. Love Megadave's guitar playing, but always hated his voice.
    It has always prevented me from loving this band.
    Why he never hired a vocalist is beyond comprehension.
    He sings like he just gulped down a lung full of helium.
    It's annoying.

  8. Dave has complained about things in a general way but has never provided any real clue as to who runs the Deep State. They do have names, y’know. But it’s taboo to say those names because they are of one singular religious/ethnic persuasion cough cough

  9. Honestly I think this is my favorite Megadeth, depsite it being simpler and less "Megadethy" compared to other ones.
    I have a warm place for A tout le monde as well.

    Also, when do you dip your toes in Middle-Eastern metal? try some Orphaned Land!

  10. Oh no it's the remastered version with those plastic drums. For some reason it's also missing Marty Friedman's guitar harmonies which are supposed to happen every time the chorus plays a second time in a row. Crucifixion time 🙂

  11. Hey, I was wondering (and I mean no offense by this) is Judson autistic? My 9yo daughter is, and I really like to find people who are who have lead successful and fulfilling lives. Because right now there are days when it’s really hard to see with her.
