hey guitarist sucks ass, i bet he couldn't even 5 star play with me or 4 star thorugh the fire and flames on guitar hero smash hits ( the harder version of through the fire and flames). btw if your wondering i've fc'd play with me and i've gotten 97% on through the fire and flames, if you want i'll give you my gamertag in a pm so you can check out my scores, and also i'll even face you if you want :)
@AGENT2seven who says dave wrote the riff? he wrote part of the song but which part is never specified. he could have helped write the lyrics and had nothing to do with the riff. he could have written the bassline for all we know. mustaine, ulrich, burton and hetfield are all credited as cowriters.
@AGENT2seven Im not saying he did. I'm saying that as far as we know he could have. He might just have credit for a solo. But he has written lyrics and basslines before.
@AGENT2seven okay i have facts. dave wrote a riff in ride the lightning but that riff was not the main riff. it was the pre-solo riff. the main riff was james.
@redwing104 i'm not talking about gh/rb charts i'm talking about a REAL guitar. the reason they charts aren't similar is because harmonix can't chart worth crap.
@DTPVH i know you are talking about real guitar, i still do not see how they play anyway the same, what part of this sounds like what part from RTL? :3
@redwing104 if i must explain in detail then i shall. both riffs consist of a base picked note (both the open low E) that is repeatedly [speed]picked followed by a note on the 5th fret of either the low E string (for RTL) of the A string (for HW) and then hammered onto the 7th fret of the respective strings. this is then followed by the picking of more low E notes and then a note higher than 7th (i believe 10th for both) that is pulled off to the 7th. the pattern then repeats. okay, it all fit.
@DTPVH the main riff of ride the lightning is a relatively medium paced chugging of the E string with a power chord slide from 5th to 6th, not 7th, followed by more e string , which is played 4 times before power chords on the 10th and 9th are played, and it is then repeated.
@DTPVH the riff for holy wars is a hammer on from 5th to 7th on the a string followed by e string chugging followed by a pull off from 10th to7th on the a string which is then followed by 2 more a string hammer ons from 5th to 7th followed by a power chord slide from 5th to 6th (which is the only part that seem similar to RTL imo) this is then repeated but every time the slide from 5th to 6th changes, first to a power chord on the 7th fret of the a string to power chord on 6th e string
@DTPVH does anyone else realize dave mustaine used to be a guitarist for metallica? and he wrote that riff for ride the lightning, and used it in holy wars the punishment due?
@BowlerBoy768 Did you even read the replies? Dave didn't write the riff that I'm comparing. He once said in an interview that the riff he wrote was the pre-solo riff, not the main one.
@BowlerBoy768 He did not write the riff for Ride The Lightening you fucktard. He got kicked out before Kill 'Em All even got released, he only wrote Four Horseman and another song from Kill 'Em All. Get your facts straight.
@DTPVH Because Dave Mustaine (Lead singer and rhythm guitarist of Megadeth) wrote most of kill them all and ride the lightning before they kicked him out of the band.
Glad to see that you guys are humans.
