[@rstar015]

I feel like such a badass playing this

[@uzaydakimam8493]

You are!

[@drdurry7536]

bro same like I'm committing a crime or something

[@heribertoarroyo7718]

Watch him become a godddd

[@andrewhockings6867]

That bass line is rocking. You only get to hear how good it is when the guitar is removed. Ellefson rocks.

[@skulldays]

Agreed

[@besnardowski5912]

Ellefson's skills are insane. I also really dig his tone

[@remnant24]

Only if you're listening through shit audio equipment. I can hear how good the bass is just fine with the guitars in.

[@jackdellad4602]

Bang for bang with drums, fast and precise, brilliant stuff.

[@johnhill762]

@Ac Yeah he's a pervert, apparently.

[@S-A-CCL]

It's so fukcin orgasmic and pleasant and satisfying when you can casually play the riffs almost effortlessly

[@DzoniMakaroni]

I tried singing as well, was impossible at first but now it's not that hard. Still isn't easy though lol

[@Incog2k6]

Next task: casually play them while singing :P

[@DzoniMakaroni]

@@Incog2k6 I die from just playing, singing is impossible hahahah

[@malcolmkyeremeh5444]

True, when I first started this shit was literally impossible, but thankfully the tempo isnt too fast so once you get used to it, it's relatively easy to sing and play. Of course I still cant play any of the solos to save my life though

[@Neuffey]

0:47 - 1:10 is honestly so good even without the lead. Repeat!

[@HeartFullofMetal]

So what ur sayin... Main riff is good :|

[@Neuffey]

@@HeartFullofMetal it's altered for this portion.

[@KingBlonde]

One of the few songs that feels as good to play on guitar as it does on drums.

[@simonbago]

Agree! drums and bass are awesome in this song.

[@cyberdoomx5780]

Being able to play this has been a dream since before i started playing guitar. I'm gonna be playing this song soon for a school play wish me luck❤

[@gusano1880]

Good luck man

[@jnuno999]

man just listen to the drums and bass combined awesomeness... damm good musicians

[@StrayHouseStudios]

I would definitely be at a megadeth show if Dave broke both arms and they weren’t allowed to have another guitarist. Bass + drums + Dave’s vocals= pure evil greatness.

[@Disc1]

My right arm feels like it's on fire after playing this song non stop. Fucken great backin track, lots of fun!

[@danielbelosic3112]

without hearing the guitars i finally FELT the groove at 2:59

[@Chris-tl9wd]

And it feels damn good doesn't it

[@thepersonthatfarted3]

I actually really love the rhythm during Dave's solo. The way the guitars and drums are matched sounds badass especially those little triplets thrown in there 🤘🏽

[@InkTheFox]

Now i can play this when I'm practicing lead by myself.

[@85gobolts]

Thanks for this Chris!! Bad ASS!!!!

[@praneelbhagavatula7680]

4:57 just a timestamp for the solo start

[@WellsFargo-py5zy]

I love these types of videos, really helps you to appreciate the basslines 👍

[@FrancoCurco]

4:56

[@9021056zm]

Dave is my inspiration for singing

[@davemustaing6506]

Finally got the sweep picking part of that first solo let’s go!!

[@alexanderstilianov]

I hope Dave recovers

[@londoncastillo3086]

1:35 I came hear for Dave and David singing that one line

[@ianh6845]

3:27 solo practice

[@rockthering]

Love it, great job dude. Much more fun to jam along as with the guitar pro version. Thanks a lot. :D

[@friggetyfuck]

holy freaking moley, thankyou for this... FANTASTIC. How did you do it? I thought the guitar hero tracks were encrypted and couldn't be broken up?

[@ivancarrera1084]

2:15 - 3:27 - 4:21 - 4:54

[@TinaTaem]

this is a awesome megadeth song!

[@mushroommann100]

i love mgadeth and stacking corspses

[@firstnamelastname-bx9md]

Megacramp

[@kackiman1]

great work with this backing track. Now i must practice every day and live 100 years, then i will master this song^^

[@sundancekid1182]

rip Nick :-/

[@Godsbuster]

Thanks a lot dude!!!.... I was needed this work but you have it done....Great!!!

[@sergiobazan2544]

esto me va a servir muchísimo para ubicar los tiempos, GRACIAS.

[@nightsblood]

One day I’ll be good enough at guitar to use this

[@AlkanetEXE]

@FenderUsa I know this is sorta late - but that guitar comes in whenever there's a lead part that's being played. That's how Rockband tracks worked - they put rhythm on the same track as vocals whenever a lead part came in, so if you missed a note during a solo it would cut out without cutting all the guitars.

[@mudbone396]

Think we played with yous lads in the Pavilion before :) Thanks for the backing track!

[@anival2sorto]

I never thought i say this but thank you rock band!!!!

[@aadhvikguitarcovers656]

2:15 3:22 4:16

[@cyraxoo2791]

3:27 | 4:21 | 4:53

[@paulw106]

great backing track, really helped me nail the song

[@NeoTheone71]

Download works. Just got it. Thanx 4 the upload!

[@DalltonSantos]

great

[@JS-md7gg]

Nick Menza and Ellefson rock. The base line is loud. 🤘👌

[@babscabs1987]

yea!

[@jackdellad4602]

Nice job man, thanks for link too.

[@1986Masterofpuppets]

u should make a five magics one

[@andreymelnikov7377]

Fantastic!

[@Kh4nk]

awesome job!, been looking for this since like i was born :D. Many thx. Also a request, could you make please five magics backing track?, thank you again.

[@tombalmas]

I think he takes some tracks from GuitarHero RockBand and combines them into one track, but without the lead.

[@Rastard12345]

Great!

[@sogondie]

beatiful job....

[@Richie95Metallica]

0:13 to 0:22 repeat it for 2 to 4 minutes and it's the Holy Wars Reprise from live shows! :D

[@9021056zm]

God saves voice is amazing

[@kenjicannibal666]

Thank you so much

[@segamcr]

Great Job!

[@anival2sorto]

Poor one person who dislike this he must of have died in the holy war by the tornado's of souls :'(

[@LeaveMeTheFkAlone]

3:28 good luck O____O

[@rafaelricharddd]

thanks man we love megadeth

[@rifanasa]

is a hidem treasure... thanks men.....

[@mprogger5476]

Hidem

[@Maggiethegsd]

It was going good until the solos

[@hellowan]

Great backing track man! it helps me a lot! thank you so much bro..

[@kidder83]

Hey man, you think you could do another one of these tracks without the vocals? I'm going to do this at a talent show and I want to do the vocals with it, and Mustaine's vocals and mine clash... haha, I love this backing track though, I've jammed with it so many times, thanks for doing it!!!

[@donrogg]

I don't think this song that hard on the picking hand, tbh. I think "Blackened" by Metallica is much harder, because it is all down picking and pretty fast. This song is more about precision, than burning your picking hand out.

[@markbennett6623]

Blackened has weird timing to I think it’s 7/4 are 6/4

[@metsat8ll]

can we request Five Magics in a similar manner? bass track on that kicks ass!

[@zeerow7]

great job. now can you slow it down about 20bpm so i can play along? ;)

[@sander6931]

get a metronome and work your way up

[@lolitakek2090]

xD

[@malcolmkyeremeh5444]

It's honestly not that fast

[@NarfireVA]

@synesthesia67 i'm pretty sure he's downloading the tracks from rock band or guitar hero, that's how most master tracks are being posted

[@rendyandrian7149]

Mustaine and Elfson know how to make a bass line and mix it so that it can be heard and enhance the overall song.

[@The_Buff_Guy]

The only hard solo he does in this song is his second one (if you count the acoustic one as his first, which technically, it is). Tons of stretching and sweep picking in the beginning, and some quick shredding at the end. The middle is pretty easy though. The other solos in this song are dead easy.

[@WPower8204]

3:23 4:21

[@kuba2542]

I've never made one but I think its based on practice (or whatever it is in rock band) and you play the bits with the solo? something like that I guess

[@loco4201]

@FenderUsa uhmm, that's so u can play the part Mustaine plays during that time... =\

[@GuitarSG198]

amazing backing track. thanks a lot. Five Magics would be a nice one to have though :P

[@_ProTrax]

Any way to get a backing with only Dave's parts excluded? I don't wanna have to play Marty's solos lol.

[@CorruptorMusics]

This is great. Is there any way I could get this with just the drums?

[@Charlemagne01]

killer mustaine riffs

[@skydo5422]

I find Marty's solos to be quite easy, the hardest solo in this song to me is Dave's

[@Mrp00p3rs]

What shit are u smoking? Lmao

[@gabrielsson2005]

Its true tho..

[@damienwaychester1527]

This song is FUCKING AWESOME!!! \m/

[@666soldierofmetal]

so awesome to play to was this in GH or something?

[@Wylde5996]

Now, with aTube Catcher!!

[@FenderUsa]

@loco4201 yea well i wanted to do both tracks

[@WastingMyTime01]

On what time you start playing ? I can't count this right

[@KingBlonde]

in 8ths..... 1 2 3 4 go lol

[@malcolmkyeremeh5444]

No, you start the first note on the 4th quarter beat of the measure before the actual song, idk if that makes sense. Basically, the 5th and 6th fret A string are played 2 8th notes before the down beat on the first measure

[@evoxfq300]

and bass

[@tommydrummer455]

2:12

[@ezraterry4219]

3:28 4:57

[@Thereadingloft]

SOUND LIKE SURFER MUSIC WITHOUT GUITAR IN THE INTRO

[@Gio130394]

How do you guys making those backing tracks, is there any program or tool or something?

[@dagukmonster]

I LOVE YOU

[@MGMan37]

Is there one for Rust In Peace...Polaris?

[@Richie95Metallica]

Sorry, actually I think if you take the guitar out of 0:47 to 1:10 or even just 1:13 to 1:15 they seem closer to live Reprise while Dave gives band member introductions :P

[@michallandrum2764]

bring it back

[@spyroschristoulakis6296]

Can you remake the download link and upload the backing track without any guitars at all (not even the rhythm ones) in .wav, 44100 Hz, 24 bit format?

[@jackedgeguitar]

Just you tube convert a drum track

[@KingBlonde]

Spyro, google "megadeth multitracks" and download them yourself in full quality! Then you just need a daw and you're set!

[@roughsharkangular2034]

Great! another excuse so i dont have to find friends anymore

[@1986Masterofpuppets]

make a rattlehead one

[@aashutoshkulakarni9614]

Does this song start on an off beat or on beat

[@alexilaiho8534]

can you make a detailed tutorial on how to make backing tracks like this?

[@lucas11__]

the audio is pulled from a game like rock band, etc where you can play the songs so you just record the whole song without the guitar, bass, drums or vocal parts

[@Thomx13]

Its easy.... he plays rock band without hitting the notes and recording... You cant play the whole song without hitting notes, but he plays many times and playing a little each

[@BaSs4cE11]

please do bass only

[@pegasus52497]

Any way you could do the guitar track?

[@RubberMuffin]

can you do peace sells

[@DemandingShadow]

Can you do wake up dead

[@sergeirrational3774]

first solo 3:29, second one 4:22

[@friggetyfuck]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do Lucretia!!

[@jman2102001]

May I use this in a video where I do the song but every chord is a power chord?

[@KingBlonde]

Wouldn't it just sound like early metallica then?
