Finally got around to recording a track from one of my all time favorite albums, "Where Shadows Forever Reign" by Dark Funeral! Really beautiful and haunting melodies in this song, I especially love the arpeggiated chord section and the repetitive quarter note lead that follows it--so simple yet so powerful. Dominator's drumming is savage in this track, the bomb blast in the outro is always the coolest thing ever haha.
On another note, this is my first video after hitting 1,000 subscribers! I know in the grand scheme of things that number is pretty small, but thanks those of you who like to watch my videos. Your support is very much appreciated! I'll be trying to make more of an effort to frequently upload some full covers as the quarantine goes on and if there's anything you'd like to see, just let me know.

So I stumbled upon your channel about a year ago. At that point I was thinking it would be cool to pick up a guitar. You convinced me to do it 100%. So I did it. You make it look so efortlessly. But it's fucking not. It's so hard to make things sound even remotely good, but I am so glad that I did it,, even tho I suck at it so much. So thank you! It might sound silly, but your videos inspired me to buy and learn guitar and even if I'll never be able to play anything, I'll be grateful :) Also, My top 3 bands are Wintersun, Amorphis and Insomnium. Insomnium thanks to you. I check out your videos to find bands I KNOW I will like. I discovered Insomnium, Mors Principium Est, Kalmah and few others that I would never give a second chance after mediocre first impressions, if not for yo making their covers. So MASSIVE thanks and big thumbs up from me! I don't usually post comments, but I enjoy every single one of your videos!

Wow man, thank you so much. I’m so glad I was able to inspire you to pick up guitar and I hope you stick with it! Remember that everybody you look up to on guitar was once where you are now, and whatever level they can get to, you can as well. You have good music taste as well haha, keep it up dude. Thank you so much once again, your comment really made my day!

[@AUM_-po9sc]

@@ChrisJonesGuitarist, some older Eternal Tears of Sorrow songs maybe? Like "Lost Rune of Thunder" or "Baptized By The Blood of Angels" (especially the whole solo section) - the band doesn't have much attention on RUclips and you are one of the "chosen" since you did a couple of covers:D

[@MirkoReaper]

Nice cover dude \m/
How did you manage to have that sound on guitar?

[@papifont359]

Tab?

[@ChrisJonesGuitarist]

Learned by ear, sorry man!

[@Eckathor]

What tuning is this in?

[@AUM_-po9sc]

Should be Eb Standard.

[@ChrisJonesGuitarist]

Yep, Eb standard! You don’t need the 7th string, that’s just the only guitar I could tune down by a half step
