Megadeth - Five Magics (Live at the Hollywood Palladium 2010)

[@vicrattlehead6386]

The riffs, solos, the drum beat, the bassline, song structure and everything on this song is certainly forged by some kind of 5 magics.

[@ruplateralus]

Yes this is pure magic...Absolute masterpiece.

[@BurlapJohnW]

Yes.

[@monke12355]

Rlly like the singing in this song too

[@MadnessOpus]

Mustaine, Friedman, Ellefson, Menza, drugs.

[@fadetoblackened4407]

marty, dave, david, menza and vic are the five magics

[@CarlosGonzalez-sz4jh]

It's a crime they never played this live with Nick on the kit. The fans deserved that. Nick was a fucking monster on the outro that sound check is pure aggression. RIP

[@hiroszyma45]

Did they really never play this live with nick ?!?!? Wtff

[@ConanObrien22]

@@hiroszyma45 nope. You only can find Nick Jr & Marty played this song on soundcheck in clash of titans 1990 but never played it live the whole tour.

[@josephkunath4173]

​@@ConanObrien22I've seen that video a hundred times. Never gets old. I love their soundcheck videos. I still love Evolver too because next to Rust in Peace I absolutely love Youthanasia.

i just wish they played this song more live

[@theextinctsurgeon310]

+Dave Mustaine this is one of megadeths best. instead they play the same old songs every fucking concert. its holy wars, hangar 18, peace sells, wake up dead, hook in mouth, in my darkest hour, a tout le monde and so on

[@SweetSweetJustice]

+The Extinct Surgeon it's because he's a Christian pussy now and doesn't wanna sing a bout satan and cool stuff anymore

[@zDialecticChaos]

yeah but five magics isnt about all that stuff, its about this one book, and same with rust in peace polaris its not satanic but i really wish they played those songs more as it is megadeths best and most crazy thrashy songs

+Dave Mustaine seriously right, no more conjuring, black Friday :/

[@mikestienen7313]

[@SylentEcho]

Marty Friedman composed such weird but uniquely amazing solos. Some of the stuff he came up with for this album hasn't been topped, yet, IMO.

[@ianbourg]

GunsnRosesfan2012 sounds fuckin' evil. They should use that voice effect in other songs.

[@hurremshaikh6720]

yeah it's so freaking awesome

[@UroboricNate]

I dont think it actually sounds like that live, probably just another overdub added in post production, you can hear tons in this video, especially with Daves vocals.

[@ShermanProductions2015]

Kamizi all of the vocals in this live album are overdubbed in post, including junior’s back up vocals

[@vicrattlehead6386]

David still used Jackson, Dave has changed to ESP and then to Dean which never suit his sound at all.

[@RobbieFitzgerald]

I love how Broderick plays fairly close to the original solos but with his own touch.

Im not defending Drover, but that was just shitty drum triggering.

[@armandousmaximus4738]

The technicality of the drumming is what makes this song a gem to most drummers, Drover doesn't deliver what the song requires, it's too bad Mustaine won't upgrade. I've been to 14 Megadeth concerts since 1990 and Drover always disappoints. Menza & Degrasso always kicked ass live.

[@dangerpowers4582]

It's in 5/4 time, definitely something Chuck would have utilized. What I like about Dave's incorpation of odd-time is that he doesn't try to be as technical as possible. He just writes what sounds good. I'm not alluding to Chuck overusing odd-time. Chuck was a brilliant player as well.

[@brianwied3702]

[@thrashislife2654]

[@craigharrison5406]

When I saw Chris Broderick I was skeptical he would get all those Friedman solo's down...but he did a damn good job, kept them true to the original. Impresssive.

[@fried2styles]

This may not be the "best" metal song ever, but it is almost perfect: 1) Thrashy opening to get your attention 2) Moody build up with lots of contrasts: hard/soft, fast/slow 3) Great topic and opening line:A magician's apprentice saying: Bestow upon me knowledge, wizard, all-knowing, all-wise" 4) Awesome, jazzy interlude with psycho drums and guitar parts. 5) Amazing climax with a chant-able chorus. 6) Use of "Olde Englsihe" grammar: "magic" ir rarely used in the plural form in modern American English. 7) Just a carnivorous riff throughout that really gallops along. 8) and finall, a return to the opening motif, higher and higher. Like I said, just about the perfect metal song...
