Hey, thumbs up for part 2 👍👇

[@RagmansRagland]

Murmaider 1 and 2

[@owenbakken2002]

Funeral Hymn by Exodus

[@Juventinos]

Disposable heroes is just so iconic. sounds so big so intricate

[@pro3gamer685]

try play it when you drinking;)

[@saus2818]

0 00 0 00: exists Metal guitarists: finally, some good fckin food

[@nicopillay4059]

Battery and Disposable Heroes are absolutely crushing gallop riffs.

[@franckauger9490]

MOP is a masterpiece. Kill'em all and Ride the lightning are so impressive. 81, 83, 86 : 3 iconic trash metal LP's !

[@CarBojar]

@@franckauger9490 81? You must mean 84. MOP - 86 RTL - 84 KEA - 83

[@franckauger9490]

@@CarBojar OK

[@AManIsNoOne67]

Heart - Barracuda has a classic classic-rock galloping riff that will be forever stuck in my ear. If you just listen to the guitar it's metal. Don't pay attention to me, I'm old.

[@davenotstaine5646]

That song is absolutely iconic

[@Lola_Santoro]

Amen! They didn't pick it because it's Heart. But, it's beefier, more metal than about half the songs on this video.

[@bl00dy_c4p3]

Barracuda is absolutely considered an early metal song, same way we can retroactively see metal in Led Zeppelin 1. it's a very reasonable claim

[@fabricio763]

​@@Lola_Santoro 😐

[@boopsnoot2807]

@@Lola_Santoroto say it’s more metal is the least metal thing for you to do. Trying to one up people and say on thing is better is annoying to say the least. It’s all good and it’s all metal, stop gate keeping and dividing people. People like you ruin it for new comers and make us all look bad

[@grindatron]

Dime bag riffs are always so fun to play

[@DamningTooth1]

She Wolf is an underrated tune from Megadeth!

[@ruilazaro3741]

The first time I've heard that song, it was live. Became one of my favorite songs.

[@josephkunath4173]

The version on the rude awaking album and DVD is awesome.

[@jaysonarends145]

How I learned.

[@darkvador443]

For me it is number one

[@shredderzing8829]

The riff: 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

[@JudgeDrey]

ICED EARTH riffs are a killer to master! And of course had to finish with BLEED.

[@AZColt1971]

No Four Horsemen, huh? Thought that woulda made the list easily.

[@XxnatrocksxX]

its not a song with gallops

[@AZColt1971]

@@XxnatrocksxX I'm not a guitarist so I'mma take your word for it. But hell the riffs sound like a horse galloping. I mean it should probably make the list off of that alone.😅

[@andrewhigdon8346]

@@XxnatrocksxXsaaaaaayyy, what? “The horsemen are drawing nearer……..Or choose your fate and die, oh , yeah!” Chunk-a-chunk-a-chunk-a-chunk-a chunk-a-chunk-a-chunk. That’s about as gallop as it gets. Have you ever ridden a horse? Have you ever seen a horse gallop, or run briskly? Have you ever seen a horse? Have you ever heard a horse’s hooves (the feet thingies) while it’s galloping? You could superimpose that sound in place of that Metallica riff, almost literally.

[@XxnatrocksxX]

@@andrewhigdon8346 I play guitar my guy. A gallop is repeated triplets. The closest thing to a gallop on the four horsemen is the verses. And even then the triplets are broken apart by a strum.

[@manocornuta]

You choose really the best gallop riffs! Very good! Great skill! Up the IRON’s! 🤘🤘🤘

[@wesguitarguy9536]

Thumbs up for December flower. Such an amazing song.

[@Lloyd2VD]

The guitar solo is one of my favourites ❤

[@DeathMental]

Iced Earth - The Coming Curse is my favourite for gallop riffs 🤘

[@IHateYouTube-sr1wj]

Which version is better though, the original or Rippers version on vocals?

[@majadeth7248]

Hell yeah, Jon Schaffer is Master of galloping

[@erebus3383]

Can we get some more speed practice routines? I do your alternate picking one daily, it would be nice to get one for legato or fast rythm parts.

[@Luingi]

the frayed ends of sanity pre solo riff also sounds sick ass hell 🤘

[@whatalovelyday1308]

SYL's "Detox" is pretty much all gallop, and it is beautiful

[@loganpaesha]

DT is my hero

[@BoaeCH]

Dude my wrist hurts just watching you play 😂 Great selection and execution !

[@AltaPisco]

Backbone such a masterpiece. You got the end of space time by Gojira which is insane too

[@Dankmemes555]

So glad Mass Hypnosis was included. My favorite Sepultura song!

[@IHateYouTube-sr1wj]

Personally I like inner self.

[@ryankelty5232]

great list, my favorite gallop riff is the main riff of teras - sylosis

[@DANCEDWAT]

Thumbs up for December Flower, an underrated gem, off a fantastic album.

[@wurthit1239]

💯

[@dissonant_a]

Love these man. So many greats in there!

[@jeffheineken6709]

So pleased you put Sepultura in there 😊 I’ve always been in love with ‘To The Wall’ from Schizophrenia. It’s raw AF 👊🏻

[@mickeyrube6623]

I've never heard that Kreator song, and it is sick as hell! But I am also realizing that it contains no perfect 5th, that is the B notes (well, A note because of the detuning), making it technically in Locrian mode! Super rare, even in metal believe it or not!

[@HeavyMetalHeathen]

Trivium "To The Rats" & Cavalera Conspiracy "Sanctuary", Fear Factory "Slave labor". Cheers from Spokane valley Washington! 🤘🏻🇺🇲

[@nevtug]

Sonda Meshuggah tam oturmuş hocam emeklerinize sağlık :)

[@jefflwadfordjr.1128]

I got to say I love the way this video is being presented. Lots of good info and the info changes quickly. Great for the way my mind works. Don’t get bored.

[@maxheight22]

I love these videos! I use these riffs when I'm practicing guitar, great work as always!

[@Rebar77_real]

One hell of a playlist! 🤘

[@chrisbarroca6618]

Very Good! I would definetly add "Aftermath" by Strapping Young Lad. The bridge riff is EPIC!!!

[@MrNatebain]

Listen mate ... Don't get too excited, but you're pretty fucking good at guitar 💪💯

[@Xammblu_Games]

D.R.I. "Acid Rain" and Riot "Kings Are Falling" are two that live forever rent free in my head 🤘

[@Kriterian]

I think a cool concept for another video would breakdowns.

[@ibrahimbirdal]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/anLMpntjgJ6on5o Hope you like it ;)

[@Kriterian]

I should have known you'd done one already and checked. Thanks@@ibrahimbirdal

[@franckauger9490]

Great work. I choose a half of the riffs to train my right hand and my weak rythmic feeling.

[@mariano.tiberi]

The gojira riff was incredible!! I had not very much of respect for that band. But that riff blow me away

[@leblon712]

I can listen to this all day long!

[@batastrophic9762]

One of my favourite gallop moments is Pulling at Threads by Dark Fortress. It comes after the 2nd chorus. t's a sweet moment, I especially love the half-time drums underneath, very tasteful.

[@AntEF85]

Great video, all god tier riffs. Meshuggah never left the 0 but still sounded the coolest!

[@Lulustucru2393]

Some love for Fear Factory... Thank you !

[@rubar1025]

Holy Diver isn't a gallop but the rest of this is excellent. FuKn Hostile isn't a gallop either. Thank you!

[@darksecret965]

Meshuggah tabs are literally 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Edit: Guys I never said I don't like it smh

[@thomassochacki128]

Um.....

[@SamBrockmann]

Sure, they are, bud.

[@torcher1616]

Just listen to meshuggah and remeber - they are the one who made 7-8 string guitars popular and cool. They needed these "zeros", thats why they was going down in pitch throughout their long career...

[@mycity7590]

And other lies you like to tell you're self.​@@torcher1616

[@charizardmaster13]

And yet its the hardest song on the list to play

[@bearcladxd]

Any recommendations for a similar channel for bass? Your guitar workouts are awesome love to find similar for bass

[@sammath9571]

What about a top of Tremolo picking riff it would permit to bring some blackmetal stuff (and death also)

[@KasumiRINA]

Oh I'd love that, add speed metal for tremolo to compare and contrast, like Venom or Running Wild.

[@WjeszakSmierdzi]

Megadeth Devil's Island is the clearest example

[@xmas072pt3]

Awesome!!!! This kicks so serious a$$ Good work!! \m/ \m/

[@spellplague]

i have recovered my ibanez from the attic after i saw this video! Thanks for that!

[@zedanide6984]

Honorable mention: Saw by Orbit Culture

[@KasumiRINA]

Like for including Dio! And also for Metallica in their NWOBHM phase. If you do another one, add some speed/power bands like Helloween, Gamma Ray and Running Wild. They have some super fast riffs.

[@YAHIA4Y]

Bro, that was awesome, actually you have a really good sound, specially the cabs, would you please share with me the cabs you use ?

[@gorraiya]

Doing a galloping riffs video without teras by sylosis' massive outro sequence feels like a premeditated crime, all otherwise great vid!!

[@carleakins2153]

I love a good gallop. Excellent list\playthrough, brother!

[@NS1.]

Great playing man! I really dig your axe. I slowed the video down to 0.75 on 'Fucking Hostile' because I realized I've been playing that fast intro/verse part wrong this whole time. I wanted to see the proper picking technique for that part and I was able to figure it out. Then I realized how cool that part sounds at 0.75 playback speed. Check it out, you'll see what I mean! 😎

[@Louisejames23]

I love that you apologise for wanting to play 😬🤘❤

[@bradc4292]

Good list! One more I love is the open E riff on Ashes in Your Mouth.

[@maxdurk4624]

You could quite literally have every single Iron Maiden and Iced Earth song ever written on here.

[@TOFB]

Great work put into this. Excellent!

[@xandaoboga]

Bro! You kick ass!!!

[@Shaylok]

Love the pickguard on your guitar. Not crazy about how close the pickups are together. I'm used to picking over an empty space between a pair of humbuckers. I try picking over a pickup and i end up stabbing and slashing it. Guess my technique is wrong.

[@redinthesky1]

Great selections, I woulda put some Slough Feg in though 😊

[@jamesreece9502]

Some of my all time favorites.

[@Agte1234]

Good job👊Play something more extreme metal with that Esp axe, i would like to hear its crispy, razor sharp, tight chug👌

[@juli-qb9oe]

i recommend by your command by devin townsend, the last riff is only gallops, and they are very coll. i recommend the whole song, i find it too good

[@disidenciatotal]

Amigo, excelente e impecable toque, un abrazo grande y saludos desde Colombia, Sur América.

[@jamesharmon7733]

Wow! Now ice that elbow, bro!

[@reverbplace_]

Finally someone's mentioning iced earth

[@wojciechrzesiowski9026]

Sodom - Magic Dragon outro riff really fits

[@bowsdaboss2955]

Man I love holy wars, such a cool song

[@MetalTalk666]

Great idea for a video.

[@DapperBlobfish]

No early Trivium riffs is a war crime

[@d_byrd]

gonna have to add Void - First In, Last Out to this. those dudes are great

[@lichlord9838]

It's very rare thing for me look down at those buttons and say out loud "How am I not subscribed to this?"

[@Charlie_Alpha_Echo]

Not enough ICED EARTH. 🤘🏼

[@man_of_omen]

Very nice my buddy. I really appreciate your work❤ But I have to say - Your Betrayal by BFMV🔥

[@Sadion666]

Invocator-through the flesh to the soul is a great one

[@aforest2802]

Good list and fine executions, but no mention of Eric Peterson of Testament?

[@Timetofly8888]

Disposal Hereos was the one I used to develop my stamina as a young GenX in the early 90s, I wish I could still play it all the way through, today not a chance !!

[@ЖандосАубакиров-р9н]

Also: Behemoth-Conquer All The Black Dahlia Murder -What A Horrible Night To Have A Curse? Lamb Of God-11th Hour Devin Townsend Project-March Of The Poozers Trivium-Rain

[@Junior-kr4rf]

Bleed 🙏

[@AcerbusSanctum]

love to see Iced Earth on here \m/

[@lasersharks]

Sleepwalker or bottom feeder by parkway drive are my favourite gallop songs

[@rcengineer]

A couple of my favorites: Fates Warning - Without a Trace Overkill - Feel the Fire Exodus - Parasite

[@crabbbypattty]

sick video dude

[@enginvolkan]

More Mesuggah please... Bleed was very nice!

[@vsdln]

Nice! What do you think about Russian Circles - Youngblood?

[@elkvis]

Came hoping for Meshuggah, and was not disappointed \m/

[@JackSmith2-y3n]

1:27 The best one 🙏 Pantera forever

[@fstath]

Awesome mashup! One question: I see that you're using the same guitar for all the songs. How do you change tunings? Are you using a pedal or a plugin? Thanks!

[@gunkyzip]

I'm guessing he's pre-recorded the guitar tracks to the correct tuning, then playing the riffs out of tune but at the correct frets in front of the camera. If you've played enough, you know how to mimic your own playing on playback.

[@fstath]

@@gunkyzip Oh! That's a neat trick!

[@MiroslawBlazek-Gdansk]

@@gunkyzip In another video he has explained he was using pitch shifting from the digital modeler (AxeFX).

[@Roberto-nn6kb]

nice touch witch synths on disposable heroes

[@7loshmi]

Good job man! No four horsemen..?

[@rj7777]

Very nice selection❤

[@r.n.r1543]

Oh yes thank you so mutch dude! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@thewoods5669]

Statutory ape before the solo is the best gallop ive heard imo

[@HenryMPerez]

Kool bro- i likeded it

[@kimonkarapetsis8195]

I keep forgetting how much impact so many Gojira riffs have had on me, especially backbone !

[@noaheskue5355]

Eye of the beholder also has an amazing gallop riff 🤘

[@silenoz111]

Iced earth have some amazing galloping in loads of their songs...

[@anuard7711]

Heathen - Hypnotized has one of the best gallop riffs ever

[@LittleRedRidingHoo]

Some cool BFMV's gallops are in The Last Fight and Scream Aim Fire.

[@peaveyandsmolski]

Havok ‘From the Cradle to the Grave’ Would fit nicely on this list.

[@Dustin_Platt]

My wrist hurts just watching.

[@Buford_T_Justice]

Lamb of God "The Faded Line" has a sick gallop
