Even 8 years after this being uploaded I still can't get over how fucking amazing this sounds. Doing a madness on this my guy. I remember listening to it the first time it was uploaded. Still can't get over it
***** It's more than that. There are the all the pieces from the other instruments + fitting them all together (which requires some skill in composition to figure out how each part could & should sound) + the rhythm & timing of it all so you don't end up with a part or more out of sync with the others. It's so much more than just his abilities on guitar.
To all you people who hate on skrillex because it isn't 'real' music, he used to be the lead singer of a post hardcore band. And yes, I know post hardcore isn't metal, it's punk...
I Told A Lie both lame styles of music.....imo....but hey atleast in the angry emo band it was an actual band.... but props to him for being smart and milking money from kids wanting to hear computers have sex.
Ah yes meal and punk are lame styles of music, you keep telling yourself that while you listen to kpop, which is totally not lame repetitive unoriginal mainstream bullshit at all
2isTheNew1 There's nothing "aggressive" about dubstep. Nor does it have a metal tone or ....edge. It's a bunch of random sounds thrown together with lyrics and today's youth considers it "music". It's nothing but electronic nonsense. That's exactly what dubstep is. Electronic nonsense. I wish this world would just end already. I hate all of you.
I'm a Skrillex fan & damn I love this video! Awesome work man 0:13 - 1:39 : Scary monster & nice sprites 1:39 - 2:56 : Kill Everybody 2:56 - 3:38 : First of the Year 3:38 - 4:36 : Cinema (Skrillex Remix)
Wow dude, ease on okay? You don't have to take over the world this instant, u can start in the US, and then break through the whole world. but i assume u already did so yeah. Bravo Erock. this kinda 331Erockstep is f*ckin' awesome! i call it a flawless victory! Guitarality! ;)
All these years later and I still freaking love this beyond description. This is a straight up kick in the balls to the entire electronic music genre and fully restores my faith in guitar based music. Pure genius. Just magical genius.
THE BEST GUITARIST IVE SEEN IN A VERY LONG TIME. keep on rocking man! ive never seen a cover artist with such a broad range and especially not one who follows the rhythm and pitch of the vocals rather than the instrumental of the original song, a very fresh take and unique idea. FUCKING NAILED EVERY SONG ON HIS CHANNEL!!!!
El isma Hey, buddy! I'm a girl and my ears are intact! And why not? ERock plays like a GOD. Just saying! By the way, now 829 dislike this, but I'll tell you why: they all are really deaf...
Keep shreddin Eric! You are not only talented, you are inspiring and your positivity is simply contagious! This made me want to start writing, painting, and playin guitar again. Thanks man.
HOW ARE YOU NOT FAMOUS, If you can just get these riffs up, u must be great at making up some great metal riffs, if u ever made a cd id sure go and buy it!
Been waiting for something like this to be in my recommendations for right about 8 Years. I still remember when the original Music Video animation to Scary Monsters And Good Sprites was on RUclips and I thought it was the best thing ever just like the song although it was the only thing I ever even liked about Skrillex.
Ok, so you're an absolutely amazing guitarist, and to add on to that is the fact that you have a smile on your face the entire time. A happy guitarist is even better than a skilled one, but you seem to be both. Virtual high five to you good sir.
Actually, I'm pretty sure I know why the OP said that. In the original song it sounds like the kid is saying "Oh my God", when in fact they're saying "Oh my gosh".
When will you make something I can not love? Dude, you are so fucking talented. Literally every single thing I have listened to, is better than the source. Keep rocking brother.
***** Dubstep is utterly atrocious. Unless you find select artists like Droptek or Tut Tut Child, Rogue, Rezonate, ect. It's blown out of proportion and a big joke to the EDM community. Glitch Hop will do the trick.
Dude, you're amazing! First I saw SAO crossing field meets metal and that kinda got me but I saw some of your other videos and I just loved them. I really love your work, keep it up :)
Dude you rock ! I love all the different theme you do and just when I think to my self that cant sound good in metal but you make it sound awesome ! :P keep it up dude
Ok i can not without saying you play so amazingly you have played almost every one of my favorite songs and you play it so well that i can sing along to it!
Even 8 years after this being uploaded I still can't get over how fucking amazing this sounds. Doing a madness on this my guy. I remember listening to it the first time it was uploaded. Still can't get over it
Absolute madness I remember first hearing this this guy is next level
my goldfish watched this with me....now he's a shark
I laughed much harder than I should have at this.
hahaha i laughed hard and for a good reason.. hilarious !
Dubstep + Rock/Metal = EPICNESS!!!
Ik this is like a decade old comment, but great to see metalstep is big today with guys like Sullivan King and PhaseOne
2:45 hold my drink... i can do this easy. *breaks fingers*
hahaha here hold my gf I'll do that- breaks fingers, smashes guitar, and ends up crying like a baby infront of everyone LOLZ
Andrew Reeves omg im laughing so hard
wtf i can translate ur comment and it says "omg laughing so hard in the" what is up with google
Andrew Reeves Well that's what apostrophes are for.
hey I decided to achieve nothing in english and thats exactly what I did
I love how you always look so happy in your videos you're like the happiest guy on youtube ever.
He should form a band with Andrea Vadrucci (Vadrum), he´s always happy, too. :)
Just freakin ridiculous. I can't even imagine how much time, talent, & energy you put into making these.
I have no idea
***** It's more than that. There are the all the pieces from the other instruments + fitting them all together (which requires some skill in composition to figure out how each part could & should sound) + the rhythm & timing of it all so you don't end up with a part or more out of sync with the others. It's so much more than just his abilities on guitar.
+Crit - C But more mind blow is that how much he has been practicing all scales, play fast and getting that great own style to play guitar.
This video has left a sir speechless. Cheers.
DaSolo363 How? What makes you think he wants to sit on a cock?
DaSolo363 I will excuse your ignorance just this once, given that you present no valid arguments worth arguing against. Good day, fellow ignorant.
Islander oh youtube. making idiots public since 2005
***** No one asked you did they! trolololololololololol
*sigh* I take it you're in your meme phase.
Almost 9 years later this one still delivers. Astonishing work!
To all you people who hate on skrillex because it isn't 'real' music, he used to be the lead singer of a post hardcore band. And yes, I know post hardcore isn't metal, it's punk...

Ah yes meal and punk are lame styles of music, you keep telling yourself that while you listen to kpop, which is totally not lame repetitive unoriginal mainstream bullshit at all
skrillex makes metal to dubstep and you make dubstep back to metal?
skrillex takes music and ruins it...
***** I think Skrillex's music really has an aggressive and "metal" tone to it... It's not metal, but it's got that edge.
***** That sentence doesn't even make sense.
2isTheNew1 There's nothing "aggressive" about dubstep. Nor does it have a metal tone or ....edge. It's a bunch of random sounds thrown together with lyrics and today's youth considers it "music".

Bryan Green

Johnny Fisher well everybody thinks there will be a terrorist attack at a rugby tournament so yes.
Eoghan Mackie Hmm. Sounds like fun.
All these years later and I still freaking love this beyond description. This is a straight up kick in the balls to the entire electronic music genre and fully restores my faith in guitar based music. Pure genius. Just magical genius.
he looks so happy while playing, i admire that, not trying to look really cool and metal
Epic!!!! What I love about this guy, is he smiles in his videos. You hardly see that. :) Way to go, you sure can shred!
Still coming back to watch this man piss all over modern music with a guitar in his hands and a smile on his face

Thomas Anderson you cant have too much metal... so he added some more
+Thomas Anderson FFTL is not metal. -_-

You will ALWAYS be one of the GOATs. I’m back in 2021 to reignite your flame 🔥
I guess metal can make anything sound good. Keep 'em coming
Metal fixes everything. This is proof!
I'm sorry, but I recognised that TPOT in your logo sounds like "teapot" haha :D
Clever wit you have there.

Been waiting for something like this to be in my recommendations for right about 8 Years.

Sonny would be proud
He's one happy christian
Religion has nothing to do with it fuck head.
Actually, I'm pretty sure I know why the OP said that. In the original song it sounds like the kid is saying "Oh my God", when in fact they're saying "Oh my gosh".
Unless you're missing your entire frontal lobe, there can be no way you actually think that.
It was just a suggestion...
I realize that but you must realize that it was a very dumb one.
When will you make something I can not love? Dude, you are so fucking talented. Literally every single thing I have listened to, is better than the source. Keep rocking brother.
I watched your Dr. Who Meets Metal, then this. You, sir, just earned a subscriber!
One Does Not Simply.... Listen to this on headphones while refusing to Air Guitar...
Erock with a beard : Jesus
now he's messi xD
now, BOW and PRAY to the GREAT and HOLLY metalmessi EROCK !
First of the Year meets Metal.... My Brain cells just imploded from overexposure to awesomeness...
And in that moment, the Metal Gods and Dubstep Gods set aside their differences and became one! Awesome rendition man, I love the hell out of this!
I wish you were my friend :(
He is everyone's friend.
They always sound something of like Dynasty Warriors half way threw lol

Brought here by destiny. Welcome.
Mean no offence but dubstep means no shit compared to metal!
agree
***** I like it in some occasions too, say, when I'm really high or drunk..
***** Dubstep is utterly atrocious. Unless you find select artists like Droptek or Tut Tut Child, Rogue, Rezonate, ect. It's blown out of proportion and a big joke to the EDM community. Glitch Hop will do the trick.
***** It says utube is a globally accessible website and there are an astonishingly high proportion of idiots among US population.
Dude fuck bein polite.ALL OF THE OFFENSE CUZ DUBSTEP SUCKS MAJOR DICK!
You can just be internally happy knowing that you can play this eargasmic piece of music, i would choose this over the original by miles!
Dude, you're amazing! First I saw SAO crossing field meets metal and that kinda got me but I saw some of your other videos and I just loved them. I really love your work, keep it up :)
You have 939k subs. Why not to upgrade your camera?
This video is three years old. Check out the new ones, he has much better quality.
why not upgrade your speakers lol
How does 939k subs have to do with upgrading camera anyway? People liked him enough on this quality to sub to begin with.
