DragonForce - Valley Of The Damned Cover

- Опубликовано: 6 июн 2015
- This is me covering Valley Of The Damned by DragonForce on my Ibanez Egen18-TVF. My guitar sound was achieved by using the effects in Logic Pro X along with amp designer. The song was learned by ear along with some improvisation.

The Outro solo to this song is probably the best outro to any song in the history of music. The melody of it is breathtaking. Great cover!
Espicially for their debut album/song
3:22 when i'm feeling confused about math
same, although i struggle with BOTH Maths and Chemistry.
Only legend can play dragonfirce solo
only legend a Dragon Li
There are no words to describe how awesome this was. Even with some screw ups here and there it's still amazing
+Connor Deal Thanks a lot for your feedback! Yeah, playing through a difficult song such as this one without any screw ups in one single take, it's a pretty tall order. It's not impossible, however it'll take more than just a few takes
Very true if played this song for years on my e gen dragons blood even Herman gets odd note ECT wrong sometimes I know it happens to me a lot lol I just say it's improvisation if sounds good
Your fingers are magical snakes. Love the little variations you put on it. Immensely talented human being
This is just inhuman. That sweep picking 0.o
Amazing cover man!
+TheDragonSpiritForce Means much to me that you liked my cover! It's not many times that my guitar playing has been called inhuman, if ever :)
+JoeyWild Yeah well I started getting really into playing about 2 years ago I think. Never had any lessons, but I'm making solid process just by self studying with tabs and watching videos. Sweep picking is one of the things I have a lot of trouble with though. I imagine it's just a matter of hours upon hours of practice, but do you know of any tips that would make it more accessible? Thanks in advance!
I'm also self taught from the beginning and I gotta tell you, when your just as good as other people that have taken lessons, you'll feel so much more pride since you know you taught yourself . Two years is a good start, but it may be a bit too soon to tackle sweep picking. I couldn't do that until I was 4-5 years into playing. But if you want to try it then, here's my suggestion to you. Focus on one hand at a time. Start with either your right or left hand and just get the motion right. Either sweep up and down the strings while muting them with your other hand or go through the individual notes by just taping the strings without picking them. Mute the strings with your right hand if you want, It's just about getting the feel right. When it starts to feel a little bit natural you can start putting the two together. Start of easy, just three strings at a time and don't push yourself to hard. A sloppy learning process will take more time to retrain yourself the right way than taking it nice and easy from the start.

(See what I did there.)
An often overlooked DragonForce song, you did it justice!
I know how much effort it actually takes to pull off a song like that!
I'll say, "good work right there buddy"! keep up the good work!
This is one of my favorite metal songs, amazing talent you have!
Gives me shivers!
Amazing! And you even played that little sweep during the verse that Herman does live! :)
funcking awesome bro, grettings from venezuela
cool t-shrt!!!
Cheers mate! ^_^
Left me breathless when that solo kicked in. Fucking tough song to master and that was insane
playing dragonforce with The hobbit shirt is my kind of person
Wow. That is amazing. I love this song, and you did a fantastic job. 😍
Its super amazing😮, cant belive it was 8 yrs ago, Meaning you are playing much and more better now.
Am i the only one that needs another insane cover??
Bad ass cover bro! DragonForce is my top number 1 band! I'm sure you've made Master Li very proud with this cover! I would love to see you cover Where Dragons Rule off of Valley Of The Damned, and then Fields of Despair, and My Spirit Will Go On off of Sonic Firestorm!
dduuude you gotta post some more covers!
Just the way the guitar screams the melody is amazing!
Pouwaaaaa!! Just incredible! Guy, this cover is amazing! Thanks for your this work, i loved it! In French :Tu déchires tout mec👌👌

Freaking amazing cover man. The Hobbit T Shirt is a nice touch too lol 😆 🤟🔥 Middle Earth and Dragonforce are like one of my favorite things of all time. Also man am i a little jealous cause i wish i had that replica of Hermans Guitar , its one of my Dream guitars to have , hate that they are no longer available to purchase, such a gorgeous guitar
LOTR reference. Swing that axe, those Orcs stand no chance.
Bro this is fucking amazing, best cover on youtube for this song imo. Loved the little shred you did around 2:18 :)
Good stuff! Well done. One of the most fun ways to play it.
Really awesome cover, great job
5:09 good lord that sounded great 👍

Nice shirt...
Wait there was a guitar cover?
Freaking amazing!
Among the Dragon Force is "Valley Of The Damned" love songs, but was admired and Do amazing to play the fast track.

that outro solo love that song
I wish to be you man. Good technique and i like this song very much. Thanks a lot.
this is so cool..I like your playing xD
Thanks for cleaning my room with those sweep picking
My ears are on fire!!
Sweet baby Jesus! That was sick! Really dig the guitar as well, it was my dream guitar when I was into DragonForce. :) Though I have this love/hate thing going on with tremolos :P
+TheTonyborbony Thanks, I appreciate your feedback! :) I have a similar feeling towards tremolo bridges. The only one that I've liked are the Ibanez ones with their zero-point system and their own spring system. They feel so much more stable than Floyd Rose bridges if you ask me.
JoeyWild I currently have a guitar equiped with the Edge3 tremolo and one with an original Floyd Rose and I prefer the Floyd. Never tried a guitar with the zero-point system though, seems interesting. :) My main reason for hating on tremolos is because they're a pain when you adjust the intonation or when you want to try another tuning.
+TheTonyborbony I totally agree on the pain with intonation and changing the tuning. I'm in university right now and while my Egen18 is at home I got my other Ibanez here with the ZR-bridge. It's pretty much the same as the others but instead of a knife edge it's got a ball bearing mount. The configuration is pretty mich the same and I keep going back and forth in tunings all the time and it's quite annoying. It's stays in tune very well though because of the locking nut :)
Excellent!!!
Dude, you fucking killed it!! Holy shit you're a great guitar player!! 🤘🤘🤘
You´re amazing!!
Dragon forse lo máximo su cantante y guitarristas no tienen límites lo mejor gran calidad.

Dragonforce - Valley of the Damned lyrics
On a cold dark winter night hidden by the stormy light
A battle rages for the right for what will become
In the valley of the damned a warrior with sword in hand
Travels fast across the land for freedom he rides
And the sign from the master on high screams aloud and across hear the cry
For the kingdom of fire and ice and the power to be alive
Be strong ride on, carry on through the war
Come along carry on, living for ever more
On the wings of death by the hands of doom
By the darkest light from the darkest moon
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
For we stand as one tonight
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
In the valley of the damned
Days breaks with golden strand
Over pastures green it glows
To where night returns
In the shadows faces appear
Warriors wearing full metal gear
All join together one and all
Before the glorious light
Rise up, gather around
Come and hear what is said
Use your senses open your mind
Don't you ever forget
On the wings of life, by the hands of hope
By the brightest light from the brightest sun
Crossing silent seas over mountains high
To the valley of the damned
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
On the black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
The black wind forever we ride on together
Destroying your evil with freedom our guide
When the master will storm us
He'll stand high before us
Our hearts filled with splendour
Our swords will shine over the light
The black...
You're very good!
👏👏👏

Sick cover dude. My favourite song and guitar. It plays like a dream right? Been tossing up forking out the cash for it for many years.
+Daniel Son Many thanks! It's a really good guitar indeed. It's definitely one of the best guitars I've played one, but my favourite is my Ibanez S2170FW. Spec-wise it's more limited than the Egen-18, i.e. it doesn't have 24 frets or coil tap but there's something about it that I prefer. Since I got it it's been my main guitar for live for that purpose I think. Limitations and simplicity makes it more comfortable to use since the options are not as overwhelming.
+JWguitar Ah good to hear. Not sure if I make the leap into buying it or not, but always happy to hear positive reviews to help tip me over the edge.
Just looked at the S2170. Nice guitar. If I don't get the Egen18 (or before I get the Egen18 i should say) I've been looking at getting the S570DXQM Prestige in Grey. Or the S5570Q in Doom purple. Need to see them in real life first though. I have an Iron label SIR70FD and a Diamond Bird of Prey but need a thin body Ibanez with a wammy now, so maybe "Egen18, here I come".
How long have you been playing? Dragonforce got me into playing. Listened to em for 10 years but started playing about 3 ago. Spent too much time on Guitar Hero haha. Only just properly started looking at their tabs/sheet music.
+Daniel Son I've been playing guitar for almost 10 years now. It's good to hear that you're really getting into playing guitar. There's nothing that makes me feel so free as when I'm playing music.
If you're getting a guitar in that price range, try many different guitars. What you've set out to get might not be the right choice for you in the end. Of course you can narrow your search down to a few brands that you prefer but keep an open mind. Always try out a guitar before you buy one as well. If the guitar shop has multiples of the same model in stock, ask if you can try another one because no one is the other like. Also, if you plan on buying an expensive guitar, don't buy it the day you first try it. Ask if the shop could reserve it for you for the next couple of days so that you'll have time to think of your options.
Personally I'd recommend a prestige S-series rather than the Egen18 unless you're a major fan like me. The reason is you'll be able to modify it, put in a specific set of pick-ups, for example you could put a dimarzio evolution in the bridge while having a dimarzio D activator in the bridge. The purpose with a signature model is the specs will all be the same as the artists guitar. If you start replacing the pick-ups, then you've lost the purpose with that specific guitar.
Well done! You even got the guitar lol. Does it play as nice as it looks?
The hobbit 😍
But what about breakfast?😜
@@JoeyWarfield And the second breakfast?😃😐

Which 30 idiots disliked this dude's mad skills ?? Shame on them . My fave df tune and you nailed it. Beavo sir . Bravo .

Awesome cover, congrats! Which pedals are u using for this? ty so much!
No pedals at all. I’ve got the guitar connected straight into my interface and the tone is from an amp simulator in Logic Pro
Good
Amazing cover!
Tho just out of curiosity why didn't you play the solo section at 4:40? It's the best part of that solo
goddam
So what can you play?
Any Dragonforce solo you can name
u should use the neck pickup for sweeping it sounds way cleaner
+Tyreek Murillo I am using the neck pickup for the sweeping solo, then i toggle it to the bridge for sams part ;)
ok, do you have the rocktron prophesy 2
+Tyreek Murillo No I don't. In this cover I was using plugins within Logic Pro X. Currently I'm using EZmix 2 when I record something. I can't afford a rocktron prophesy, and I think I would get something else than that. Whenever I gig I'm using a Blackstar HT 100 head going straight into the mixer from the emulated output on the amp.
oh
I'm using D'Addario NYXL 09-42. I've been using them ever since they were released and they never let me down. Lasts forever and they never break.
Where did you learn to play this?
+Jimbo Colton It's all learned by ear. I've been listening to Dragonforce for about 10 years now so I know this song inside out since I've heard it so many times.
+JoeyWild wow great cover by the way
How did you get the backing track
I love the guitar so much
There's no backing track. This is the remastered version from 2009 of Valley of the damned. Both Herman's and Sam's guitar is in the music that I'm playing on top of. The guitar sure is a beauty :)
Oh, thats incredible - will be good to keep in mind. How long did this take for you to learn. I'm using your video as a guide :p
Great question. I'm honestly not sure I know if I can completely answer it though. I've been playing guitar for almost 10 years now. I learned the basics of the song in 2010 but I didn't possess the technique in order to play the solo so I stuck to the rhythm for the time being. Then I somewhat learned the Em sweep figure around 2012. Then in 2014 I could somewhat play around the solo because I was starting to get some proper speed into my fingers. Then I shot the cover in 2015 :)
+JWguitar Ah okay, really cool nonetheless. Keep it up (:
@@JoeyWarfield молодчина!🤝🏻
Damn you

Wearing a Hobbit Tshirt and playing dragonforce, now that's something
2018?
Oh shit the power of Edge Zero at the beginning of the song. That's right? 😂
It has got some incredible sustain!
