Symphony Of Destruction (With Akira Takasaki)

[gpgpgpgp1000]

@qwerty123123ify - The 80s Loudness is the absolute best of Loudness! That was when he had heaviness and melody in spades. Also in the 80s guitars had some punch to them, they weren't tuned down to C-flat-mud.

[qwerty123123ify]

For people that have never listened to Akira Takasaki or loudness. Ignore the 80s stuff, because there is sooo much better. Go buy the album spiritual canoe. Songs like Climaxxx, power of love, the end of earth, and picture your life are some god damn master pieces.

[Aeronomer]

@qwerty123123ify Whatever dude. Their early stuff is epic. Soldier of Fortune was insane guitar.

Japans best axeman? Maybe but there's Yamamoto and Matsumoto in there too..

[RAMBrooksy33]

@greenslider and Marty Friedman lmao

[Droamen]

This is what my friends and I called: Symphony of Akira

[musicalmessage]

Takasaki is my fucking idol

[theshaggyshow]

Megadeth better than Metallica; but not better than Loudness... Loudness= world's best Guitarist & Minoru best male Singer...

[Mii85]

Megadeth kills, Loudness kills, can you really ask more.

[sumdyude]

Akira is like a guitar samurai. He's probably better than a lot of famous guitarists.

[MrGerbow]

Next to George Lynch Akira Takasaki is right there, like the old Loudness But really love the Guitar work on soldier of fortune Frickin hot.

[aNy1UT]

old Loudness kicks assssssssssssssssss!Takasaki is great!

[wasabimetal]

ドスきいてんなたっかん

[thrashing666mainiac]

@metalryche

so do you

[VeeValter]

Lol the guy speaking Japanese was Akira/ Its great to see them play a little song together Akira and Dave are two big inspirations in my guitar playing gotta love it!

[TaijiSawadaFan]

Oh man, they dedicated it to Munetaka Higuchi, that's so cool!

Thanks Mr. Mustaine, for remembering one of the greatest musicians in Japan!

[hovertrain7]

does anyone know where this concert was recorded?

[ThrashPowerMetalGuy]

@hovertrain7

Somewhere in Japan

[davifade]

I'm pretty sure it was only for the one song duration that Akira was with Megadeth... just a special guest appearance. Loudness are still together.

[nonstopunderground]

how long was takasaki with megadeth for? thats pretty epic

[speednecromancer666]

@nonstopunderground i think he was just playing with em for this show

[georgeeporgee777]

wow this is the best to happen to megadeth

[GentalaMaya]

I got frustrated when friedman left, then got super irritated when pitrelli was fired, and akira in megedeth could possibly be the best thing to happen to cure it

[PearlJammer07]

That is just the way it goes some times. Each line up has had its strengths. Would be neat to see Poland come back. He is one of my fav MD guitarists.

[onebadasian]

is there a video.. man i would love to se this.. sounds awsomemest...

[swatkamus]

i think that who spoke in japanese was akira

[Loriku96]

megadeth its more good than metallica ilikke this grup mutch than metallica :O ?

[gunsnrosesromance123]

its so funny cool and epic how dave speaks japanese HES BEAST HES GOD HES THE BEST EVER!!!

MEGADETH!

[special129]

Cool! Megadeth with Akira Takasaki!! If only I was rich enough to be there...

[Fitfatfoofite]

Dave sure knows his Japanese.

[MrVegiita]

That was totally awesome!  Thanks for posting!

[danophile07]

it may be another contradiction of the thrashers part, considering loudness ue to wear purple and have big hair ad stuff in the 80's but takasaki blows me the fuk away and so do megadeth theh both rule!

[Reynbo2]

Fucking killer \m/

[ReXShunji]

If only there's a video for this clip.... PWNAGE

[RSDOBL01]

Takasaki is God. Good for Megadeth to give him the props!

[Khainza]

Akira Takasaki :0

10/10

[Rattlehead1818]

AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! if only they had the full video of this that would be the coolest thing ever. This is such a rare occurence, could we at least have it on video seriously, man and Mustaine sounded so good.

[dethclusion]

cool

[megadethboy666]

are the fans singing megadeh megadeth during the main riff?????

[mihadude]

I think so.

[TheImmortalDimebag]

think you could have cut out the whole minute of clapping and cheering at the start?

[megalukas]
