THE RIFFS THAT TAUGHT ME: In Flames - Chris Broderick | Metal Injection

[@johnsullivan3946]

It's so refreshing having a highly skilled, classically trained guitarist talk about musical scales and the uniqueness of various guitar artists working their magic on the electric guitar.

[@greekfreak1980]

Great to see Andy LaRoque getting some love, very underapreciated guitarist despite the fact that he wrote so many classic King Diamond songs.

[@EM-zj1xm]

Many KD riffs wrote also by the King himself 😉

[@moronicdooshbaggery756]

Andy has a unique tone and style His soloing for Death were genius and totally added to chucks riffs

[@celeste5932]

Andy probably my favorite guitarist of all time. He is amazing!

[@rogerwinright2290]

Peter Blakk is almost never name dropped and he wrote some really cool stuff too!

[@Svarog8666]

@@moronicdooshbaggery756 Andy is definitely one of the greats

[@jani14jani]

Chris playing these early Yngwie riffs reminds me that there was a time when Yngwie really cared about song writing and not just blazing up and down the fretboard,

[@postlex]

The song Rising Force is something else.

[@greekfreak1980]

Yeah, this was when he actually collaborated with other talented people like the late Marcel Jacob and had a real producer on his albums.

[@yourdaddy9622]

Kings of the nightworld from black dahlia sounds verrrrry similar to Yngwie now listening again lol. Makes sense though.

[@smokingcrab2290]

Why care about music when you can melt the strings off? 🤠

[@ArchitectOfTheEnd]

​@@yourdaddy9622 Mannn exactly, i learned to play it a few days ago, and now listening to this it was also the first that came into my mind

[@Brunetto46]

Those early ratt's albums are full of classic riffs🤘

[@jollyvoqar195]

bitch and a half to play solos too

[@irmasil3]

Chris can play anything...And he has played exceptionally in one of the best Megadeth albums ever...Endgame.

[@ibanez33150]

endgame was decent

[@Metalton95]

@@ibanez33150decent / good overall, but definitely great in the context of Megadeth’s post-1990 discography.

[@todddavis5433]

Peace Sells was the best

[@xATown23xGaming]

His solo on How The Story Ends is unbelievable

[@dominicisnthere9687]

They've got what, 16 albums now? Endgame isn't even top 5

[@scottmelton3092]

Chris is a beast of a player. Nevermore days with Loomis were incredible. Two monsters of Metal in one band. Thanks for sharing your riffs that inspired you. Love your playing….

[@chuckyinges]

I miss when he was in Megadeth in around 2010. He definitely was way too good for the band but I'm glad he got the attention he deserved.

[@VicRattlehead95]

​@@chuckyinges Right

[@MikaelLV]

I'm so happy I Am A Viking is being mentioned here by Chris. Killer tune with an amazing riff and solo. Marching Out is also such a good metal album in general.

[@shredder66]

One of Yngwie's very best in my opinion. And that opening run at the start of the solo... goddamn

[@DEMONPLAGUE]

It's my favorite

[@2good2betrue3]

That Riff is so amazing and catchy, it's always in my mind the first time I heard it.

[@old-mtl-guy]

King Diamond and Andy LaRoque put out such great albums in the 80's and early 90's! Fatal Portrait, Abigail, Them, Conspiracy, and The Eye are all records I still play today - I never had the skill or knowledge to play anything more than rythm guitar lol🤘

[@doomcrewoutdoors1613]

HUGE Broderick fan! Stood front row right in front of him at a Rust in Peace reunion tour show while he was with Megadeth! Such a monster on the guitar!

[@DN-yv3gq]

I wasn't sure what to think about the Americanizing of In Flames, but this dude seems pretty cool. Definitely no question as to his talent.

[@josemiguelcastiblancogomez7723]

Warren Dimartini and Robbin were such a cool guitar duo. RIP King

[@jasong.8835]

Yes! King Diamond getting some much-deserved love! 🦇🖤🦇

[@DEMONPLAGUE]

Andy LaRoque = Guitar God

[@retrofocusing]

At any rate, Chris is great and these are some not-so-obvious choices!

[@hcnilsson]

Chris, what a legendary player 👏🎸🔥

[@TheStrykerProject]

I remember trying to pick songs by ear (via cassette or LP) like "Lay It Down" and "Seek and Destroy" - no tabs - no concert footage. What a challenge, but what a way to train the ear!

[@Joey-sd2uq]

I saw Accept open for AcDc back in the day, Angus and the boys got absolutely smoked...Restless and Wild Tour😮

[@heteroyngwielover]

thank you for this Chris! Yngwie is amazing

[@VHDT10]

Chris, I've always loved your playing and thank you for helping me practice! Very inspirational!

[@WeHaveShredAtHome]

I remember being in a music store when I was younger and hearing someone playing the riff for I'll See The Light Tonight. I had not heard Yngwie before then and I had to ask him what that was. Turned out, he was an instructor there. Introduced me to some great music, got me started on lessons and taught me that very riff. Still one of my favorite warmup riffs to this day. I also started tuning one of my 7-strings up a half-step after reading that's what he does with In Flames, so I can play normal C-standard stuff on my 7s. Brilliant idea!

[@constantinranis]

Every song I learned the hard way, by listening to a tape,or watching a VHS, these are the songs I still remember and can play 20 years later

[@jamesharrington9826]

I appreciate you showing n sharing all this information with us as learning guitarist n I think ur a great guitarist, love all the megadeath riffs, music you done !

[@Crunch104]

This is an awesome idea for a video series! Also, I love my Broderick Signature guitar! lol It's the 6 String version of the beauty hanging on the wall. Thanks Chris for the inspiration!

[@rosskrause3926]

Do you like the input jacks location on the backside of the body ? I had the Black 6 string with the Floyd Rose tremelo.. I would definitely like to get another one someday..pickups sounded awesome !

[@Crunch104]

@@rosskrause3926 The different kind of input jack works well if you only ever use a straight plug. Sometimes though I use a 90 deg plug for my other guitars and then it doesn't work will with the CB Soloisit. The other thing I would change is to maybe add some small sharkfin inlays. We are all not as amazing as Chris to not have to look at the fretboard :)

[@todddavis5433]

After listening to multiple genres of metal throughout my life since the early 80's Lay it Down is still my favorite solo ever

[@scootertb26]

Chris is an incredible player, great video🎉

[@Jester_Kang]

Awesome video! I always learn a lot from listening to Chris Broderick. Very intelligent (and masterful) guitarist. Will have to check out these songs. Thank you.

Awesome guitar player, amazing song choices

[@ChrisShredGuitar]

Oh he added scarified😍great

[@BillTheCat47]

Yngwie has been an all time fave guitar virtuoso, and Paul Gilbert has earned a place in my fave😊s...two different styles but, both are awesome...you mentioned "string skipping..." Have you checked out Steve Morse? Somewhat more blues forward but WoW, very complicated. Your mastery of various techniques is TOP NOTCH, PROPS! 🤘🤘

[@donmcglothlin841]

Cool to see that Chris has a King Diamond affiliation. When it comes to big 5 live bands In Flames and King Diamond are definitely top of the heap.

[@davidaraujo927]

Great choice of riffs!

[@stephenwinchester6668]

I figured out how to play Ozzy’s “Killer of Giants” rewinding the vhs over and over!

[@Adamantiummonke]

It was so awesome meeting you and chatting in brisbane cant wait for you guys to come back still love that white jackson of yours.

[@RobertGarcia-tt8sq]

Very cool!!! What a great player, seems like there’s nothing he can’t do!

[@ericjenkins2737]

The crazy thing about Yngwie on things like the Light Tonight solo is that I don’t think he really used his 3rd and 4th fingers together when doing runs like that. Pretty sure he would use his 1st, 2nd & 3rd fingers instead of 1st, 3rd & 4th for the first figure.

[@oyanezg]

Andy Laroque and you are my fav Guitarrists!!!

[@knightstalker87]

[@dovesofwar1777]

[@ibanezmaestro5630]

Chris is truly badass. It was so cool to see him in In Flames when they played Reno back in 2022, the night before they played Aftershock. He threw me a pick and it's on the wall in my studio. 🤘🤘🤘

[@Dr_V_von_Doom]

Warren DiMartini is criminally underappreciated

[@hatecrewsix2]

I love demartini style but he constantly plays the same stuff over and over. It's a safe player and never dares to change key.

[@kevg1869]

Happy for you Chris! You deserve to be in a band that appreciates you. I imagine In Flames is that band. Those Swedes are hood people. Cheers.

What's so 'hood' about In Flames?😂

[@-ColorMehJewish-]

I'll tell you what "schooled me" A guy named Chris Broderick in a video named "Betcha Can't Play This - Chris Broderick (Megadeth)" To this day I watch it in amazement, but I have been able to play pieces of it to a respectable degree. It made me want to quit, and at the same time, it made me want to practice more b/c it was so damn impressive.

[@williamdelabrue5157]
