Dave's solos sound metal af inspite of the fact that they were recorded on fucking demo quality and also written in a garage in short time. Kirk's *rendition* of Dave's solos ( would like to point that out ), were all recorded in a damn studio and released as a polished album on a bigger label ( a.k.a much better recording tech and presentation ) which is why they sound cleaner.

Kirk's solos were definitely his rendition of Dave's solos. Kirk's were cleaner and more in the pocket but Dave's had a "live" feel to them that adds a lot to the product. In the end, I'm glad that Dave was kicked out because he would never have been able to create his music that he heard in his head if he was with James and Lars. I love Metallica and I love Megadeth equally as much. By splitting, they brought the world two amazing metal bands.

Kirk sounds fast, but at the same time melodic, precise and clear. Dave sounds blistering, unhinged and batshit crazy. Different styles but in my eyes, both great guitarists. I feel many people criticize Hammett just because he replaced Mustaine in the band, but his playing sounds impeccable here. Yes, he clearly used some of the demo solos as blueprints for his own, but Kirk also sounds different enough to be distinguishable from Dave. And to be honest, these solos aren’t very sophisticated structurally; they’re a bunch of repeating, Michael Schenker-type pentatonic/blues licks and patterns strung together. Besides Metallica did give Dave credit for the stuff he wrote, and Kirk created tons of iconic and complex leads that definitely made him an independent guitarist from Dave very early on in his career

Dave is the original thrash, there is just no way around it. I mean if he wasn’t respected Kerry king would not have went down to help him in mid 1984. That goes to show how well Dave was known

So they both kind of play in the same style. It's less about crafting any kind of solo and just stringing blazing fast modes together. In that regard, Dave has a much larger vocabulary. He however has only one gear...which is playing at the absolute peak of his speed. Kirk doesnt have nearly as many tricks in his bag, but hes cleaner and can shift into slower playing without losing any of his tone or power. Mustaines solos are more impressive to listen to because the stamina it takes to maintain that kinda speed is unreal (or cocaine fueled). Hammets are more musical and his notes are far cleaner and sharper. You understand every single thing he does. He uses his pick alot more mustaine does. If anyone is learning guitar or a guitar player wanting to learn more....playing at top speed isnt all that tough once you get the muscle memory down. It's easier to fall into and keep a rhythm when you're going as fast as you can. Its more about conditioning your muscles to be able to do it for 30 seconds at a time.

Lloyd Grant played the final solo on the hit the lights demo, not sure about the first two shorter ones, but definitely the last one. He even joined them all on stage recently.

Hammett is much better at solos. Not say Mustaine sucks more like too technical too fast to really enjoy the solo where Hammett has a clean melodic thrash feel very hypnotizing

Honestly I think Dave didn't grow into the guitarist he is until Peace Sells. His chops and talent were obviously there from the start, but his solos on the KEA demos as well as Megadeth's poorly-produced debut are little more than chaotic, messy shredding, even if they have an intuitive flow to them. Kirk's interpretations of Dave's solos on KEA are rhythmically simpler yet clearer and more deliberate, which is why he was the perfect replacement for Dave at the time. I do think Dave is a faster and more inventive guitarist, but he definitely took more time to realize his potential.

Kirk had a short period of time to learn these songs right after Dave was sacked, so he obviously had to copy them note for note. Compare the rest of Metallica's catalogue with Megadeth's... Kirk's solos on Ride the Lightning, Black album etc., to Megadeth at their peak? Dave is fast, but Kirk can be melodic, intelligent AS WELL as fast. I think he got sloppy after they dropped Bob Rock, who ironically (and to his credit) pushed Kirk really hard, Kirk admits as much. Now, Kirk doesn't prepare before he gets into the studio and it really shows.

This is why this is the only Metallica album I listen to. Kirk playing at Dave's speed (his version of Dave's solos basically), it was the best.

Ok here are the facts, during this period of time, Kirk was less sloppy than Dave, therefore I understand why people would prefer Kirk instead of Dave in this video. But Dave got better as they made more records and Kirk became a joke. After AJFA, Kirk solos became shit

Yes, his solos on KIMB are quite sloppy, but on Peace Sells, his soloing got cleaner. Good Morning Black Friday is a little sloppy, but I love it.

Kirk's solos to me are sloppy at best, and Dave's hit way harder and more brutal solos. So I would say Dave is clearly better.

@andyoc5 жыл бұрын
Hammett sounds far better and his versions of the solos are tighter, Mustaine wrote outlines for these solos only and they're sloppy here, there are outside notes that sound unintentional and his legato gets very messy in places, Kirks solos might be slower but are just better. There's no comparison on hit the lights.

b miller yea but Dave made them so they should be less sloppy. KIRK had a week to learn all of Dave’s solos and had make a few new ones. Kirk would of done the solos in one take anyway so your point is in valid

It's just a fact that Dave is a superior guitar player . Kirk has to play it slower because he's not as accurate as Dave when he trys to play it at Dave's tempo.

It could be that I have heard the Metallica song a million times over w/ Kirk's solos, but I like Kirk's playing better. They sound like that's the way they should be.. Anything else and they don't sound right. That's not a knock on Dave. I like his playing, and love Megadeth. Dave also has shared the stage and traded licks w/ Chirs Poland, Marty Freidman, Al Patrelli, Glenn Drover, chris Brodrick. He's a Baddass on the guitar.
@clashboy197712 жыл бұрын
First of all. Dave's solos are much harder to play. Clearly you don't play guitar. Second of all how difficult something is to play doesn't make you better! There's a lot more to guitar than just technical ability!

Kirk never fell to the trendy shred guitar mentality and wanting to be the best there is and was, he always played from the heart, who else can tackle a variety of guitar playing styles ranging from Trash Metal to more soft Alternative Rock and sound good at it? Not many. Dave is one of my primary influences James being first. So i think both are amazing.

I guess that is why he went to Joe Satriani to learn how to play guitar, to avoid the schredder trend?
