I still don’t understand how suffocation wrote these kind of riffs back in ‘91. I mean yeah there was brutal shit before them like Bolt Thrower’s early stuff and Carcass but nobody wrote riffs anything like this before this. Nailed the cover btw man 10/10
@@EkTwRLoveGarlicbut that doesn’t explain how they got them so tight. If you’ve played in a death metal band you know how ridiculously difficult it is to be this rock solid. Suffocation has guitar playing and drumming that makes almost every other death metal band look like novices. They aren’t my favorite band but they invented slamming brutal death metal and technical death metal as far as I’m concerned and nobody in the scene are virtuosos like suffo!!!
@@dive-bombTrue that, I just play to guitar pro trying to learn some of their songs, I always plateau at 80% of speed on most, and even then I'm a lil sloppy as my wrist cant keep up to all the chugging and tremolo xD
This band helped significantly to create an entire Genre, I personally met Mike Smith and what they were doing at the Smith house hold in high school was of course inexplainable. They jammed there asses off, Smith undoubtably mastered the Blast beat and the bar was set high, without a drummer like Smith, these riffs would have never seen the light of day in this way.
This song is basically the musical equivalent of a chef going full out and trying to make the 'ultimate meal' in one meal. Probably my top suffocation song.....and that says a lot....because they are all beyond amazing.
Fuckin solid dude. Back in the day, my next door neighbor one day was like, you gotta hear fuckin Suffocation. He came over and we listened to this whole album. It was probably 1992 or so. I joined a death metal band (buddies of his) the next year. It was an amazing time 🤘
So many badass riffs in one song, probably my favourite song of theirs, take some job remembering all this shit in the heat of the moment, very well played.
This song is the invention of slam... And Suffocation did it a million times better than like 95% of all slam bands that ever existed, because they understood that reusing that same style of riff for 4 to 5 minutes straight, or even worse, the entire length of a full album more or less, would be completely braindead and uninteresting... Lol. Nice cover by the way.
Trust me I thought that too initially but it can definitely be far worse, and on top of that the semi-raw production adds loads to the atmosphere and heaviness.
@@recruitdifficulty1638 as i get older, i start to hear more notes. Maybe it s a matter of destroying your hearing 😆 i dont Even go to concerts because it s always so loud i can t understand anything.. but that s clearly just me
there 5 guitars tracks layered over each other to get that sound both sides so thats 10 guitar tracks you hear on this album its a wonder you can even pick out the riffs to play them
If only Scott burns did breeding the spawn how roadrunner released that album the way it sounded was a travesty breeding was a perfect death metal album
As much as I enjoy suffocation, it really annoys me how muddy the riffs actually sound on their studio releases from the 90s considering how amazing the riffs are especially when you can properly make them out like in this video
Slam was around since the early 1980s at least. For crying out loud Suicidal Tendencies even had a song called “Surf And Slam” in 1988. What do you think they were referring to? I’ll give a popular easy to find Death Metal slam that came out before Suffocation and was a huge influence on them....Napalm Death “Suffer The Children” 1990, Slam at 2:46.
@@fredsmith5925 It's unlikely that the Suicidal Tendencies song you named was referring to a literal slam/breakdown, since there is not a single slam in that song. Whatever, though
Well considering that Suicidal was known as a slam band back then, and that song was written to get people to slam dance, I would say yes, the word slam in the song is referencing slam dancing.
@@mattyygmusic personal preference I guess! I clearly favour melodic and atmospheric. It certainly could be an instrumental, plenty of interesting riffs.
*Great being able to see how you played it. 🎥🏆 Awesome guitar cover! A lot if people don’t know how good these guys are. Suffocation is a good band but I still prefer Dying Fetus.*
Thanks man! I think I used the tse 808, LeGion amp, and I made a custom impulse response using Voxengo deconvolover (there are videos showing you how to do it). Afterwards just some eq to try and get it to sound like the record. Hope this helps!
@@mattyygmusic thanks man. Hey i leave a tip to you that i discovered recently, if youre interested. In Amplitube 4 theres a mesa boogie amp and a Terrance Hobbs (suffo) preset. Stay heavy \m/

Nice playing! I hope you don't take this as an insult, but there's a lot of inaccuracies in the riffs here. I'm guessing you used the main tab available online. I don't know what the author was hearing when he wrote it but it's way off. I'm posting a corrected version to ultimate guitar now if you're interested. Again your playing is great, I just wanted to point this out so people know this isn't how the song was originally written.
Thanks so much man! If I remember correctly, I used a free amp sim called LeGion, and I coupled that with a custom impulse response I made to try and match the album tone!
Hell yeah! Here's a link to the impulse responses I made if you want to use them: drive.google.com/drive/folders/17lSAGCEBWZ-vFrrzVzgy5KSHSANEsKHN?usp=sharing You may have to play around with EQ afterwards to get it to sound even better
Finally i can understand what the hell is going on with the riffs. thanks dude, you did an excelent job.
Thanks man!
You mean , you were distracted by the shit-eating vocals ?
😂😂😂 i feel ya... and my old band and i have played with them more then 1nc... 😢
I use my ears to listen to the riffs

Thank you!
The song that got me into extreme metal.
Amazing!!! Extremely well played. Hail Suffocation.
the record sounds all muffed, i can't understand what they're playing. on the contrary, this sounds clear
That’s Scott Burns production for you. Sounds like it was recorded in a beehive.

holy clean tone dude. if you don’t mind sharing, what were the presets or what software did you use?

Just curious why the 7 string?
My 6 string had gauge 9s so wouldn't really be suitable in C standard, so I just used the 7 string
@@mattyygmusic gotcha, yeah 9s probably wouldn’t hold down in C too well
Yeah, nice pfp btw 🤘

Looks challenging!
