Megadeth - Rust In Peace... Polaris (Live at the Hollywood Palladium 2010)

Megadeth performs the song "Rust In Peace... Polaris" off of their platinum album "Rust In Peace" live at the Hollywood Palladium in Hollywood, CA during their Rust In Peace tour in 2010. This clip is taken from the live concert DVD "Rust In Peace Live" released by Shout! Factory. Get the DVD here: www.shoutfactory.com/?q=node/...
Rust in Peace was very well received by both critics and fans and was responsible for bringing Megadeth to the attention of a mainstream metal audience, and it is considered one of the most influential heavy metal albums of all time. The album was nominated for Best Metal Performance at the 33rd Grammy Awards, and "Hangar 18" was nominated for the same award at the 34th Grammy Awards. Allmusic described the record as "easily Megadeth's strongest musical effort", and it was noted as one of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

Lyrics:
Tremble you weakings, cower in fear
I am your ruler, land, sea and air
Immense in my girth, erect I stand tall
I am nuclear murderer I am Polaris
Ready to pounce at the touch of a button
My systems locked in on military gluttons
I rule on land, air and sea
Pass judgement on humanity
Winds blow from the bowels of hell
Will we give warnings, only time will tell
Satan rears his ugly head, to spit into the wind
I spread disease like a dog
Discharge my payload a mile high
Rotten egg air of death wrestles your nostrils
Launch the Polaris, the end doesn't scare us
When will this cease
The warheads will all rust in peace
Bomb shelters filled to the brim
Survival such a silly whim
World leaders sell missiles cheap
Your stomach turns, your flesh creeps
High priests of holocaust, fire from the sea
Nuclear winter spreading disease
The day of final conflict
All pay the price
The third world war
Rapes peace, takes life
Back to the start, talk of the part
When the Earth was cold as ice
Total dismay as the sun passed away
And the days where black as night
Eradication of Earth's
Population loves Polaris

I've been playing the electric guitar for what, 16 years now ? I still don't understand how in hell he can sing while playing this song. There is no denying it. Dave is a god.

[@deadaccount5063]

I'd say some ppl are somehow naturally good at singing while playing. I've been playing guitar for a year and singing for a few months and I can play this song while singing. So yeah idk, I've never found doing both things at the same time hard. The hard part is mastering both individually before doing them together, imo

[@escalexx4957]

It's just about keeping rhythm and do it separately. I can sing holy wars, etc. while playing. It's just about good rhythmic riffing, then you lay vocals

[@diegoambrosio5718]

Science still does not know that. Hehwhehe.

[@Calypso993]

half the time he mumbles the lyrics...

[@julesbrunton1728]

Singing? Never heard a live recording where he doesn't need an excuse for yelping, wheezing mumbling out of time and tune and out of breath..God in a studio, dog on a stage

[@javiersebastianmartinsuare483]

The good think is that they perform this song after 20 years

[@prometheustv6558]

They had to since they were doing the whole album

[@MrGnastygnate]

What think?

[@user-bq2zp3wf5g]

bro you're high get some rest

[@CaptnShred]

This song is such an underrated gem. For sure one of my top 5 Megadeth songs of all time. That riff at 4:01 is fucken badass.

[@kaspersaldell]

Same here, the lyrics combined with the music is fucking perfect

[@pyrogian]

true i fkin love this one

[@jasoncrane2415]

I've been practicing that riff for over 20 years and still can't quite get it on point lol

[@alfsoang1770]

Yeah. My fav too.... N other underrated song like Reckoning Day, The Killing Road haha

[@betadevb]

It's because it is the last track on an album where every song is fucking brutal. It takes years to get over the awesomeness that are Holy Wars and Hangar 18. And then you realize that the next 4-5 songs are just as good, and then there is the Tornado solo. And then finally one realizes that the last song is among the best the band has ever written. But yeah, what a fucking incredible song. And yes, especially that riff.

[@fabiomunhozgomes]

killer vocals

[@pantherhaste4554]

he did a great job here for sure

The drover era of megadeth is so underrated in my opinion. Very disciplined and technical players

I always thought his drum sound sucked ass, but he was pretty solid. I just can’t get past how shit his drums sounded

[@trentthehandrocker1292]

Its just Shawn Drover here (the drummer). The band had Chris Broderick as guitarist here

[@PaddyByrne931]

I think he's drumming is top notch but just lacks the hard hitting of Nick Menza

[@bryancook5017]

I don't know quite why, but that chorus riff gets me fired up. Dave is still one of the best on the axe

[@rohantiwari7801]

Vocals might be overdubbed but they sound savage.

[@Metalexander-po3xj]

what amazes me is HOW the hell he came up with these sick riffs, paired with intellectual lyrics, all in the F# position or tonality or whatever u call it and he didn't run out of ideas from that specific riffing position since almost all his songs are derived from that position (and there was Amerikhastan! a hell of a chromatic exercise made into a sickass metal tune with lyrics that will scramble UN). Playing or covering it is one thing since its already there, but composing it is the deal for me.

i can't imagine megadeth w/o daves vocals it would suck

[@m1s3ry97]

I agree, but let's not fool ourselves. Anyone would kill for a Bruce Dickinson cover of Tornado

[@jesuscondom15]

Are you serious? Almost every Megadeth fan or listener agrees that most of their songs are way better without the vocals. Even a devoted Megadeth fan like me would agree

[@richardray6258]

I'm one of the few who absolutely love Dave's vocals. I had to take some time to get used to it, but I just pow the raw aggression of it. I' just glad he uses his real voice instead of autotune.

[@9ckr716]

I hate to be the one to say it, but the truth- is that those microphones are not even turned on. I noticed (hence word _noticed_ , since i was not _looking_ for anything to begin with) at 2:44 , Junior goes to sing the backing vocals but you literally cannot hear it, to which he realizes and then walks away. Then immediately after at 2:55 you can clearly see Daves head sway away from the microphone, yet theres no fading of his voice at all, it just looks off. Sorry but its not fooling me.

[@martinbarrera5613]

They are not off, but the recorded concert has postproduction work where they fix the details of the voice, if you watch other concerts like rock in rio you can clearly hear how dave can't sing the song well and sounds like mickey mouse.

[@ElDangerBlog]

Los tones de la batería suenan horrible :/ la tarola muy moderna xd pero es un buen batería claro q nick menza siempre será el mejor batero de Megadeth :) aunq gar samuelson tmb era bueno pero la forma de tocar de Nick era único :)
