Kiko Loureiro solo Tornado of Souls Megadeth

[@andrewlauret]

I love the way his hand is smooth. Looks like this speed is a walk in the park for him.

[@dhirajahlawat6551]

He's actually a left handed guitarist which is why his left hand works so nicely

[@blitzien]

@@dhirajahlawat6551 wait why is he playing right handed then

[@daltro010101]

@@blitzien 'cause he learned that way, just it. hahah

[@kgunitkeese17]

Blitz it’s not that rare. Jimi Hendrix was a right handed writer but played left handed. A classmate of mine in middle school is a left handed writer but plays guitar right handed.

[@sydneypanda]

He’s left handed but he learned right hand guitar since first started, the reason was his sister quit playing and mum didn’t want to waste the money paid to the guitar teacher, gave his sister’s guitar to him, Kiko said in the interview with Ola

[@TIMxisxHERE]

Wow that's well played, he should consider playing for Megadeth!

[@elilowrey6679]

Incoming!! we have troops that wont understand your very funny joke!

🤣🤣that's a good 👍 one! He would be a perfect fit for MEGADETH and he looks like the dude 🤔🤣🤣🎸✌👊🤘

It's good, but still an amateur.

[@jamespyngrope77]

I don't know if i should laugh or cry at this Joke..

[@jameswu9631]

He plays with such ease as though it is twinkle twinkle little stars. Love his playing.

[@impossiblepie]

Kiko has given Megadeth life once again, Dystopia is amazing!

[@rickgidney1005]

He makes it sound the same on stage too, what a monster Kiko is!!

[@Stoneblazer]

It's so nice to see someone play that solo with actual emotion rather than pure technical skill!

[@noney81]

agreed

[@Deehvad]

no easy task!

Stoneblazer emotion? what is that supposed to mean? moving the guitar while doing a bend? lol I think david escobar's done the best rendition of this solo by far, besides marty of course.

[@phreak1118]

I do like Kiko... but Chris was way better at this solo.

[@lbedu9960]

I think Kiko is the best replacment for Marty

[@theotehdjentleman5085]

eduard0Fernandes Al Pitrelli was

[@simaodocaminhao]

@@theotehdjentleman5085 no. Pitrelli's solos on TWNAH are rather boring and uninspiring. From all Megadeth lead guitarists, he was probably the worst.

[@marmo75]

...and what about Chris Broderick?

[@eriksamano443]

@@marmo75 dont get me wrong... chris broderick is probably the most technical out of all the lead guitarists in megadeth... but he's like a robot (at least during his stay in megadeth ) and lacks that melodic soul that marty brings in his guitar solos

Nem tá tão baixo assim

[@gtr362012]

Coolest thing was to hear the strings when hed hit them hard the background noise overriding the amplified notes. Such a gifted musician and person.

[@ozarkprepper1718]

Kiko and Marty are both great guitar players and great people.

[@brendanjones528]

Great job Kiko. All the comparisons and the this guys better comments and so on...it doesn't matter. All the guitarists who've been in Megadeth were there for a reason. They had the chops and the skills necessary for the job. Nobody is going to play someone else's technical solo's note for note, and I don't think that's thier job to be a copycat. Yes play them close to what's on the album but also bring your own character and feel to it. As long as the basic structure and 90% of the notes are correct who cares? Only Marty plays how he plays, same with Chris Poland or Jeff Young for that matter, no one wants a clone. Kikos interpretation of all the guitarists that came before him are absolutely stellar and he deserves every bit of credit for bringing all his talent and efforts into Megadeths history books. His contributions are hugely valuable and appreciated 🤘🤘 thanks Kiko!!!

[@thaddaeuspremkumar3560]

well said, brother

[@BuffHotWell88]

It’s always great to see beginner guitarists out there keeping the metal flame alive!

[@nexion2406]

I love the "snapping" down kikos pick makes to emphasize notes, I really want to incorporate that into my own playing

[@Deehvad]

Can't get enough of that solo, so magical

[@davidletterboyz]

Nope. His bending is not same as Marty.

[@vhenry75]

davidletterboyz cheers Dave,don't don't what made me write 'he bends notes the same as Marty'............

[@neguinhozuza1329]

I think it's cool to put his own style on already established songs. He goes a long way.

[@dj8]

my thoughts as well

[@jorgeluizgomes7848]

Esse solo é belíssimo, parabéns Kiko, adorei !

[@karaokeentertaintment8197]

I'm so glad I got to witness this live probably still have the recording on my IG 👍🏻🤘🏻

[@Puzzoozoo]

What viewers don't probably realise is the sheer amount of practice that metal jammers like this guy have done in order to get the solo piece right for the video.

well done, played standing up and with attitude :)

[@Christine-hr9rz]

Seems like no ever wants to do a pinch harmonic when they land the D shake after the big bend. I don't know if it's they are afraid it won't come through or what but it is ALWAYS missing

[@Fishfishfishfishfishfishfishfi]

Dude I thought I was alone!! I’ve been watching so many Tornado of Souls covers and I thought I was going crazy and just imagined there was a pinch harmonic there, but I’m glad someone else finally noticed

[@giacomol02]

oh yep thats freaking true, i just listened to the song again and damn i've never noticed that pinch armonic.

[@alanjamesh.zamorano1677]

I think the pitch harmonic is only on the record? I don't remember hearing live performances of Marty doing it.

[@nickp3949]

His version sounds more like a classical piece, especially on the fast part, really interesting.

[@nickp3949]

Yeah I know, its just interesting that he plays it that way. It's always cool to hear different styles. Don't worry about the language thing man. English is my native language but I also speak Italian and I make mistakes all the time too.

[@CynHicks]

The take away here is that if you plan on doing it day in day out in every situation you have to make it your own. Just keep the most important bits as close as possible and go. Doing a perfect copy of a recording, even your own, over and over even when you're having a bad day is impossible. Just work out something you can do anytime. Be able to recover from almost any error and perform. ..😉
