As a composer, I always compose on the guitar first. If it sounds good on an acoustic it sounds good on an electric guitar. I learned that from Mark Knopfler, he mentioned it once in an interview. This is how he recorded some of his most famous songs. Sultans of Swing e.g. was recorded that way. He first wrote it for the acoustic guitar and then thought; "let's hear what it sounds like on an electric guitar", and a hit was born.
So you mean to tell me that the stuff I doodle around on my acoustic is actually black metal? I'm gonna have to invest into some Heavy distortion stuff...
This is very relaxing. It evokes to me the image of a castle in the middle of the evening...big open spaces, solitude, trees, shadows, and the melancholic brightness of the sun
First song I ever learned how to play actually learned it from your channel too, I have become a lot more proficient since then, your videos have taught me well
Varg already did it (in electric guitar but without distortion, so sounds "similar") look at his channel the riffs of his own songs ("tulean perspective" is his channel if you didn't know that)
Dude. I just discovered your channel. I've been searching for your kind of content for ages but I thought no one would've ever done it. And suddenly here I am, facing LOTS of amazing videos created with passion, knowledge and expertise. Fuck. Thanks, Simon. Thank you very much.
@@space_skeloton1862 Classical music is instrumental and progressive, rock music is repetitive and lyrical, I believe metal in itself blends both together
I'm learning how to play the guitar but I'm too impatient to learn it from the basic stuff, so I'm just learning my favorites songs hehe, this will be my first one, I'm practicing daily. 😊
That's so awesome... It was so soothing and relaxing I almost went to sleep.. 🖤🖤 don't know bout others but Black metal (of this type especially) so much channels my emotions into tears and relaxes me ..
I had heard of Nargaroth but never actually listened to them until three days ago. Three days ago, I saw this video for the first time and found out that I had kept myself away from an outstanding band. Could you please cover "Dawn of Epiphany"
There are a few bands that either have acoustic parts, play acoustic alongside electric, play _non-Black Metal_ acoustic songs, or completely acoustic Black Metal songs. Pagan Megalith, Drudkh, Agalloch, Ulver, Xasthur, Peste Noire, Primordial, Nargaroth (also Opeth, Embraced), and there's probably more (not to mention Folk Black Metal bands...).
my love of classical music and black metal clearly go hand in hand.
same
One is the other.
Beethoven is BM/DM/Punk/... .
The Godfather of Modern music.
I keep coming back to this.... Every month...
Black Metal Fan from India 🤘🤘🔥🔥
same, it's so soothing & sounds so good
Damn indians listening to nargaroth
And Burzum, Mayhem
Can relate...

I do the exact same thing. For the exact same reason! Marks a hero!
Bends do no justice on acoustic as far as i'm aware
@@thebigbadbone7238 Bending on acoustic is just Ouch for your fingers, and the strings are stiff so its harder.
el gran mark Knopfler, para mí es una leyenda del rock
I love this version. I listen it every day and try to learn it too.

yesss
no
yesss
Its just angry folk classical music
I don't like black metal, but when someone does a acoustic version, I just fall in love by it.
Black metal piano covers are also very good
classical music is just metal before electronics :D
a mí no me gustaba porque no había escuchado mucho, y no había escuchado nargaroth, para mí es el mejor genero del metal fuerte
This is very relaxing. It evokes to me the image of a castle in the middle of the evening...big open spaces, solitude, trees, shadows, and the melancholic brightness of the sun
For me,it's a depressive song
And when it's 1:40 you go into the woods for the first time and get chased by some beast
For me, Its intro of Vikings
А у меня она навевает изображения человека в Черной шубе с средней черной бородой и снег
I don´t usually like black metal but this melody is so beautiful on acoustic guitar!
Arthur Florez I don’t listen to black metal at all and I liked this song
Why don't you like black metal?
same with me untill I ran into Nargaroth, they seem to do actually musical black
First song I ever learned how to play actually learned it from your channel too, I have become a lot more proficient since then, your videos have taught me well
I'm a bassist, probably buying my first electric guitar today,this will be one of the first songs i'll learn.
I will never stop saying it: If a song sounds good in an acoustic instrument, it's a REALLY GOOD SONG!!!
that's the dumbest thing I've read today, congratulations.
now you could fuck off with your opinion, congratulations.
But it depends on arrangement. Good musicians can make every song as masterpiece
Look at Coma or pantera riffs. They are do amazing and have a big energy, but what would hqppend without distortion
bullshit.
My favourite so far. Definitely would like to a see Burzum one tho.
Varg already did it (in electric guitar but without distortion, so sounds "similar") look at his channel the riffs of his own songs ("tulean perspective" is his channel if you didn't know that)
Yea I have seen that but he only shows the riffs, he don't do a full playthrough.
@@luvill3461 ¿can you give me the name of the videos pliz ?
@@maximilianoanjel8373 sure ruclips.net/video/5u9Do9Dn0io/видео.html here the first one
@@luvill3461 did anyone reupload it after the ban?
Tried to put this on as background music while I do another thing, but I can't stop zoning out of what I'm doing and completely zoning into the music
\m/
Nargaroth es y seguirá siendo una de mis bandas favoritas 🇲🇽
I like black metal, and have been listening to it a lot lately. But that just shows how easy the electric guitar parts are in it, to play.
Coming back to this again and again.
Thanks for keeping me sane for past couple of years.
My pleasure buddy!
Dude. I just discovered your channel. I've been searching for your kind of content for ages but I thought no one would've ever done it. And suddenly here I am, facing LOTS of amazing videos created with passion, knowledge and expertise. Fuck. Thanks, Simon. Thank you very much.
Thanks dude!! Glad you like the channel!
This is magical
This is an amazing cover, man. I have been using this cover for a while, to learn it myself. Thank you!
I'm surprised how well BM still works on acoustic.
Sounds good to me. :)
Personally I think bm is just classical music compressed and distorted
@@space_skeloton1862 yes, not compressed tho
@@space_skeloton1862 Classical music is instrumental and progressive, rock music is repetitive and lyrical, I believe metal in itself blends both together
Burzum for example 😁
Thanks to Simon I started playing black metal on acoustics. Even my mother liked it))) Thanks...
So, acustic black metal is spanish music, does that mean spanish music played on a distorted electric guitar is black metal?
Only one way to find out!
Please somebody try it
@@Mp57navy as Varg would say "Let's Find Out"
Is spanish music played on a distorted electric guitar black metal? Let's find out!
i dont see anything related to spanish music but mmm ok, somebody should try that
Since discovering your Spleen cover, I've become obsessed with your acoustic work. It's so hauntingly beautiful
Man this never gets old. It gets younger to be exact
For some reason, it reminded me of that song from the first Silent Hill
Im blessed to have an ear for Black Metal and love the fact that so many people hate it or dont even know it exists. More for me!
Best black metal teacher🤘🏻🖤
Never clicked on a video so fast, maan, its NARGAROTH !!!!!!! i lost count on how many times i played this on my guitar
I'm learning how to play the guitar but I'm too impatient to learn it from the basic stuff, so I'm just learning my favorites songs hehe, this will be my first one, I'm practicing daily. 😊
By far one of the best Nargaroth’s song !
Man I can’t get enough of this! So good! Thank you Simon!
Seven tears are flowing to the river six of em are mine 😍
Very well taken over, congratulations.
the drums version sounds like a chilling breeze in the rain. love it

Nargaroth - Amarok Zorn Des Lammes III
Another great tune by them, would be great for an acoustic cover.

Damn, i dont usually watch covers but that was intense.
Brutal se hoye, saludos desde Nicaragua hermanos
That's so awesome... It was so soothing and relaxing I almost went to sleep.. 🖤🖤 don't know bout others but Black metal (of this type especially) so much channels my emotions into tears and relaxes me ..
I lucked out and found it somewhere else by ear toady hell yes it is my second day learning guitar your videos are much help
Always been my fav black metal tune! And btw, left speechless when i first have seen that acoustic, cool sounding guitar.
This is beautiful, I love you cover !
Its so beautiful
Summoning bro

This is one of my favorite nargaroth song. This stuff is a big influence on my own music
Oh nice, I play this all the time as well. I learned it thanks to your tutorial of this song.

It sounds beautiful Dude
You should make more, I cant get enough of acustic black metal
Awesome Performance, congrats!!
Need the tabs for that intro I love it!
Sounds very cool! I like it!
I had heard of Nargaroth but never actually listened to them until three days ago. Three days ago, I saw this video for the first time and found out that I had kept myself away from an outstanding band.
Could you please cover "Dawn of Epiphany"
Black Metal classic !!
My favorite song from Nargaroth
Loved this accoustic version....
Awesome, Keep it up !
Great work dude, this was excellent. Beautiful, eerie and atmospheric just like BM should be.
Man I love this cover, really like for a long time Nargaroth... this makes it awesome I believe Kanwulf would love it
Great Simon is the best at guitar lessons and covers
I love how bm chords sounds in acoustic guitars, beautiful song
It's remind me "Kveldssanger" album from Ulver. Great stuff!
Exactly what I thought too!
and me =)
erm. I'm late with "second that". So I 3rd that :)
or 4th. my bad
This is Sad Metal
A new genre has been spawned
@@Anonymous_Eyeballs suicidal depressive black metal (SDBM) is a thing though
Justin Potts You must listen to UARAL... true acoustic metal
Youre falling, and falling, and falling
Not SDBM but DSBM.
Not Suicide Depressive but Depressive Suicidal.
No I'm not a elitist.
Nargaroth riffs are the finest
This is legit man. Im learning just by looking it.
My favourite song of all time, well played!
Gosh ! That's beautiful 💚 ! The acoustic guitar sounds really nice !! Thanks for the cover !!
Desde México🇲🇽 mis felicitaciones por ese gran cover of nargaroth 👌🤘👍
Lo mismo digo muy buen cover 🤘🤘🤘🤘
This is great. Just great. People should play this more.
This is so soothing and amazing.
Just want to say that I really like the acoustic covers and your channel as a whole! Keep it up \m/
Wonderful rendition brother!!!
it's time to make a black metal band with acoustic guitars
Andrés Iraci haha me and my housemate have been doing this
Did you hear the acoustic song of satanic warmaster? They have one.
Oh Yes the SW is very great

There's this new band called Wytch Code playing something close to acoustic black metal
That intro... 👌🏻
Greetings from heart of the winter!)) Really awesome bro!
Best vids on youtube. Thanks again Smith.
Music is beautiful
Fantastic tone. Good atmosphear hail from Italy
It pisses me off cause if Ed Sheeran does this he's got a #1 on his hands but cuase it's black metal it's not
Ed Sheeran only knows 5 chords lol
Because he's famous. Get over it, half of the mankind is dumber than an average person.
Who cares
Such a hymn! And a very beautifully done cover!
I forget but The like Button everytine..this IS fucking beatifuuuuulll!!!!
my favorite video on this channel
I love this one. Thanks mate for this version.
Just beatifull.
Very skillfully played. Wish you the best.
Wanted this ever since you covered a bit of Burzum on acoustic :).
great video !!
