![]() Leper Messiah - Once Dave claimed that he had written the bridge riff (3:16 - 3:37) and, accordingly to some sources, the following riff as well (3:37-3:56).The Four Horsemen - He made riff at the beginning, and the song was fully written in No Life till Leather, under the title "The Mechanix", which is about sex in a Mechanics shop.Seek and Destroy - has that solo, and in an old interview with Metallica, Seek and Destroy had already been written, and James said he played the solo, and he played it right.This is the last Metallica song to have a writing credit for Mustaine. The D-minor progression of the song was later used in Megadeth's "Hangar 18", and the chord used just after the intro riff closes the Megadeth song "Foreclosure of a Dream". Call of Ktulu - To what extent is not known, but Mustaine wrote a part of the intro.He calls it the "Spider Chord riff", and used it in the Megadeth song "Wake Up Dead", which appears in their 1986 album "Peace Sells.But Who's Buying?". Ride the Lightning - Mustaine wrote a single riff that appears before Hammet's solo.Metal Militia - Mustaine has been credited with writing the main riff of the song.This riff would later appear on Megadeth's "This Was My Life" on the album Countdown to Extinction (from around 3:10 to the end of the song). Phantom Lord - Mustaine wrote the riff towards the end of the song's bridge (before Hammett's solo).Even when Mustaine was in the band, Hetfield and Ulrich helped him tweak it, hence why they are both credited alongside him. Jump in the Fire - Written largely by Mustaine, the song was originally, like "The Mechanix", about sex.Megadeth's debut album has " Mechanix", which is the original song with the word "the" dropped from the title, an added intro, and a much, much faster tempo. When he was kicked out, Hetfield wrote entirely new lyrics, and the rest of the band added an extra section, a bridge and a solo (all totaling an extra three minutes) - the result was "The Four Horsemen". The Mechanix - Found in several pre- Kill 'Em All Metallica demos, was written almost entirely by Mustaine alone, with lyrics about sex at a car mechanics.Mustaine uses some of his Metallica riffs for Megadeth songs, making it easier to tell which parts he contributed to. Mustaine is credited on six Metallica songs, two of which he wrote mostly himself and four of which he contributed. McGovney then told Mustaine to leave his house, and quit the band". When McGovney tried playing it, he received an electrical shock which he claims 'blew him across the room and shocked the hell out of him'. Another incident occurred when Mustaine, who had been drinking, poured a full can of beer down the neck and into the pick-ups of Ron McGovney's bass. The next day, Mustaine asked to be allowed back in the band and was granted his request. Mustaine was fired following the altercation. Mustaine responded by physically attacking Hetfield and McGovney and yelled at Ulrich. Hetfield allegedly proceeded to yell at Mustaine's dog and kicked him/her in anger. The dog jumped up onto the car of Metallica bassist Ron McGovney and scratched the paint. One of the most reflective moments of Mustaine's time in Metallica was when he brought his dog to rehearsal. I could see they were beginning to get fed up of seeing Dave drunk out of his mind all the time". I mean, they all drank of course, but Dave drank more.much more. ![]() He'd get wasted and become a real crazy person, a raging maniac, and the other guys just couldn't deal with that after a while. Brian Slagel, an early manager of the band, said that Mustaine "was an incredibly talented guy, but he also had an incredibly large problem with alcohol and drugs.
