*Guitar Hero classic anyone?* And yes, I know TDF won, and even though it's an awesome song, after learning half of the track it just didn't feel as exciting (guitar wise) than this one so I made a last minute change. Comment down below what you want to see me cover!
Can we get a throwback Killswitch Engage track next or something off their new album? I'm sure you're just as stoked as me that they're touring with ABR.
Singing (well) and playing complex songs at the same time requires not just practice, but the ability to separate your mind, if you know what I mean? That's how I say it feels. The playing isn't automatic, as you are playing in your head at the same time, but you have to control your voice and breathing more than the playing. The playing almost has an automatic feel, but it is definitely playing in your head like in the back of your mind, but consciously. It is hard to explain. I know people that are beasts playing and singing but just can't do both at the same time as well. I fortunately have always been able to, which makes me think that it takes more than practice, and more the ability to compartmentalise both playing and singing in real time. Until you find that "switch" for want of a better word, then you cannot achieve it, no matter how long you try. It is a mental ability. It is the same with screaming properly, if that helps understand. That switch into the mode. Can all singer/guitarists achieve it? Of course, but you must learn and practice the right way. I actually started off with Nirvana songs. Come as you are is a good one to practice achieving the split, as the verses, although not complicated to play, combined with the singing melody make it an almost perfect song to learn the switch as I call it.
My friend billy loved bfmv. He actully started his own band and played many covers including scream aim fire. Unfortunately he passed away due to a seizure in his sleep. This reminds me of him. So thanks
Sometimes? All the time. I'm always skeptical to find a new group now a days because I'm like you I dont want to be disappointed.. I know it's a bad flaw
I like that even though you did mess up slightly in some parts you always remain calm about it and you just accept defeat it just shows how much of a great guitarist you are cause tbh not anyone can learn to accept making slight mistakes in their playing I mean sure it's better without them but I think freaking out about it and just shooting another take or just playing it and dubbing it over the video is just isn't honest playing in my opinion you're a really really cool guitarist Nik and this type of content like covers and heavy riffs and memes just fit you perfectly
Thank you for the kind words! I do A LOT of takes to get the best one but that mistake was sadly something I noticed after filming was all done and the sun went down so I left it in there is all
@@mikejenkins4924 lol there's this one performance of a song on The Poison where Padge is playing the solo and he fucked up, and his facial expression is hilarious but he just keeps going
Picked up a guitar today .... for the first time since in waves came out, last song I ever learned was caustic are the ties that bind.. And i learned this song back in 2008....so I decided that this is the first song I'd use to learn everything all over again...Great rhythm, sweeps, alternate picking, unison bends...loads to get back into it.. Great video ....and awesome tone...
love it when you cover bullet,they're my fave band! This reminds me of when I saw them live and synced my scream perfectly with Jamie's during the bridge part lol
"Pariah" or "You Want a Battle?" would have been awesome as well. The latter mostly, I think. It hits so heavy with the guitar, although it doesn't seem as complex or fast.
Amazing! You hit that sound 100%. The tabs are so great, I was learning this song and with your tabs could really fix some issues I still had. Also you seem to be the first person to figure out the shredded outro. Great work!
The band performed some kind of magical spell in front of the amplifier head before recording because that guitar tone is just some of the most delicious ear candy! DEFINITELY one of my favorite songs/albums from BFMV, a true classic!
@@CoreKid4LifexD I wouldn't say that The Last Fight is underrated. Bullet has played that in every show ever since it came out. I'm bored so I'll just make a list of songs that I feel are underrated. Feel free to append the list. Hand of blood EP: Curses No control Just another star TURN TO DESPAIR The Poison: Cries in vain 10 years today Hit the floor Room 409 Scream Aim Fire: ROAD TO NOWHERE Disappear Deliver us from evil Watching us die tonight Take it out on me Fever: A place where you belong Breaking Out, Breaking Down DIGNITY Pretty on the outside Begging for mercy Temper Temper: Dirty Little Secret Dead to the world Tears Don't Fall part 2 Not Invincible Playing with fire Venom: The harder the heart, the harder it breaks Skin Pariah Run for your life Gravity: Gravity Leap of faith The very last time Under again Coma Breaking Out CRAWLING
@@DanishKhan-mx3ec that's just your opinion man, I still feel like the last fight is underrated lol. Although your list is very accurate on songs of theirs that are underrated or just go about unrecognized

Amorphis - sky is mine would be great :))
Tears Don’t Fall
Just kidding lol I think that Undertow by AILD would be pretty sick
Slayer - Raining Blood to respect our recently retired metal legends!
Would love to to see a loathe cover. Hmm did I hear someone say New Faces In The Dark!
Can we get a throwback Killswitch Engage track next or something off their new album? I'm sure you're just as stoked as me that they're touring with ABR.
It’s crazy how dude can sing the song while playing the riffs live. I could never get a handle on singing and playing at once
u gtta practice it a load and get use to it.it really isnt easy lol
you have to know both parts like the back of your hand, once you you know both parts from start to finish. mixing both together becomes a breeze.
Wait does he really? That's insane
Honestly, the bassist does so much of the singing of the older songs these days, cause Matt Tuck can't really scream anymore.

Bro I'm so sorry to hear that, hopefully Billy is moshing in heaven
😞😞😞😞💔🖤🤘🤘
Sorry to hear about your friend bud, he had a good taste in music that's for sure 🤘🏻
RIP Billy.
Fallen hero :(
One of the best placed pinch harmonics ever
I miss this era of BFMV. The Poison and Scream Aim Fire were so in your face. Their sound has really mellowed out over the years. Excellent cover!
Amazing to realize how Matt Tuck sings, riffs, and shreds at the same time.
Matt isnt playing the solo. Its Michael Paged! :)
sometimes i wish metal was still like this, sick cover bruh
Sometimes? All the time. I'm always skeptical to find a new group now a days because I'm like you I dont want to be disappointed.. I know it's a bad flaw
@joshlanier8567 ik what you mean
To think that Matt tuck can play all this and sing at once
Warbeast5593 he is also standing while doing those.
@@yokisullivan8647 yeah, of course and having to engage and interact with the crowd. Truly amazing!.
James hetfield & Matt heafy are insane too
He got 2 brain
Same with Heafy. Must be a Matt thing lol
End of Days by Bullet For My Valentine.
I've always loved the guitar riffs in that song and it seems a bit more challenging than Scream Aim Fire.
LordOgar36 it absolutely is, and it’s a better song that doesn’t get the love it needs
@@PigglyWigglyDeluxe Finally someone that agrees! I've been saying this for years.
Right on man! We need a playthrough!
Great track!
Miguel Flores you’re so right! Bullet should play this song live again. Last time was in 2011 in their South America tour
This is dope man!

I'm sure Matt and Padge fuck up live as well.

@@NikNocturnal hey Nik, where'd you find those tabs? In the book? I'm curious because I'm unable to find them.
@@swat_ape3920 Yeah, have seen it, haha. Priceless.
Bullet is my favorite band since I was a kid. Thanks for the cover.
My goodness this song looks like a blast to play. Ima go learn it now!
Love BFMV play Her Voice Resides from the Poison. one of the best opening songs to an album!
Please play it!
The Poison
@@NikNocturnal probably by far my favorite album by them. That, this, and Fever. Those were their prime.
@@NikNocturnal Speaking of the poison
Cover all those things...
BING OUT THE AKOOSHTIC
Play it with wah wah pedal, haha
Thank you for doing a clear tone. Most go straight for the exact. This helps a lot learning by ear brother. RESPECT
I just recently subscribed and I live for your videos. They are getting me through vet school finals right now... Thank you!
Thanks Ashley, glad you like the vids!
My hats off to those who can read sheet music. That is insane. Id really like to see just the drums up close. Good job.
Ah man! Thank you for this. This was the first solo I ever learned. I sucked but I loved this song so much I had to learn to play all of it
Thank YOU for watching
I love bullet, and scream, aim, fire is one of my favourite tunes by them. Brilliant job nik
my dude, i may resub to your patreon just for being dope and giving out tabs for free now. good move man. share the glory
Aha thank you! :)
Padge is the reason I picked up a guitar 13 years ago. This warmed my heart
Picked up a guitar today .... for the first time since in waves came out, last song I ever learned was caustic are the ties that bind..
And i learned this song back in 2008....so I decided that this is the first song I'd use to learn everything all over again...Great rhythm, sweeps, alternate picking, unison bends...loads to get back into it..
Great video ....and awesome tone...
I’ve always wanted to see a decent guitarist cover “This War Is Ours” by Escape the Fate. The intro sweep picking is art!
TDF not being as exciting on the guitar as SAF is the reason I voted for SAF in the first place, and you killed it as usual!
Thank you!
This was great but I still wanna see a Hand of Blood cover
NFS most wanted memories
@@NikNocturnal damn such a good soundtrack with mastodon, disturbed and bullet for my valentine and avenged sevenfold driving through rockport 👌🏻
love it when you cover bullet,they're my fave band! This reminds me of when I saw them live and synced my scream perfectly with Jamie's during the bridge part lol
UUUH THOSE GUITAR HERO FEELZ!!
Ah! Classics. Bring a tear to my eye!
The “oops” part during the solo. Cracked me up. 😂 This was awesome.
This kicked ass! I love the “no wah” and “oops” parts. 😂 Totally something I would do.
"Pariah" or "You Want a Battle?" would have been awesome as well. The latter mostly, I think. It hits so heavy with the guitar, although it doesn't seem as complex or fast.
Amazing! You hit that sound 100%. The tabs are so great, I was learning this song and with your tabs could really fix some issues I still had. Also you seem to be the first person to figure out the shredded outro. Great work!

I love bullet and all that remains you've been covering my favorite bands lately
I grew up on a bunch of these so glad you enjoy them!
The band performed some kind of magical spell in front of the amplifier head before recording because that guitar tone is just some of the most delicious ear candy! DEFINITELY one of my favorite songs/albums from BFMV, a true classic!
Your mixing and mastering so sweet dude!!! Nice.
Nik tu eres un maldito genio miro todos tus videos, saludos desde Argentina🖤
that headbanging on that break down was epic
Always been one of my favorites
Nice PFP. Can't stand the new album though lol.
@@jasonlovesmusicreacting882 Thanks! Sober kinda threw me for a loop but there's still some bangers on there for sure
@@joec4050 No Messiah, Crying Game and most importantly The Consumerist are the only songs I enjoy.
Bro THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I was looking for a backing track to play the rhythm part to, but couldn't find it. This is perfect!
It’s been so long since I heard some BFMV, thank you for this cover!
Thank YOU for watching
When i watch this video..
I just realize if i didn't listening to BFMV's song anymore..
Damn so nostalgic 😆
Aha yup!
Dude I absolutely love the insane head bobbing. We were all doing it 🤘!!!
goosebumps damn at the solo you still played the solo well good job dud.
handled that mistake like a pro man ! kept it going and maintained your composure good job and good cover as always
I.. I love it 🤘🏻❤
The last fight would be interesting for you to cover imo, cause it's pretty underrated.
underrated guitar cover vid!
For the love of god, please more TERMINA!!!!
It's in the works :D
@@NikNocturnal It makes me extremely happy to know that!! You and Andy freaking kill it!! I cant wait!!
Your picking improved a lot, clear wrist motion, pleasure to watch!
Thanks!
Been waiting for this.
Alot of ppl hate on Bullet but you can't deny this song absolutely RIPS... This whole album is great actually
Killer man. Well done. 🤘
Glorious guitar work for a classic! Nice cover!
Super good man! Loving the tab bar
Hey, thanks for giving me legit tabs for this song lol. You're a beast and I appreciate you. Keep killin it G!!
Omg 1 day ago I'm so happy we still do this
The true bfmv
One of my favourite songs of all time!
Matt Tuck use to have a sick signature Jackson RR , always wanted it
Sick cover !
Oh god this song is engraved in my brain. Even if i feel that i outgrew BFMV, i want to listen to their first 2 albums on my way to work ;d
Real and beautiful sound compared to other playback guitarists! gratz..
Just found this guy and omg amazing! In love
So good, I love these new (old) covers!! \m/
Amazing!
Do Bullet For My Valentine's Pariah next. Extremely underrated song imo
