MEGADETH Guitarist KIKO LOUREIRO Plays A “Brazilian Metal Lick”; Video

In the video below, Megadeth guitarist Kiko Loureiro plays a “Brazilian metal lick” and explains, “This is the theme of the song ‘Sertão’ from my new album Open Source. Brazilian metal style lick.”

Get the album here, and find a full audio stream below.

A recent message from Kiko states: "By definition, 'open source' is related to softwares which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified. It brings us a higher sense of community, enhances our creativity and creates new possibilities. So why not take this concept to our art, our music? How much richer a song could be if others had access to its source code? What if the song's original composition wasn't the final product? What if it was just the beginning? Something that could be constantly updated and evolve over time. And as well as a machine, we as humans are also minded to enhancements, being an open source ourselves, constantly moving and growing, through technology, science, spirituality… and art. This is the mindset which I bring now to my fifth solo album, that was named... guess what? OPEN SOURCE!"
