Looking at what Christian does here, many people will have a hard time to learn those tabs, because of huge amount of tears dropping constantly and involuntary.
Exactly, he has been in Necrophagist, Obscura, and for me in the best Spawn of Possesion album, Incurso. And have done a lot of collabs with bands like Gorod, First Fragment... He is pretty underrated :(
This guy next to Justin McKinney is like the unsung hero of technical death metal. Played in Spawn of Possession, Necrophagist, and now Obscura? Dude's a fucking legend.
The most "trademark" thing of his, to me, is his legato + tapping.. he can make such looong asc-/descending runs, filling in a ton of notes without touching the pick!

@@user-ug3hh6so6n it’s probably likely, most bands do these days. Here it’s just the audio from the album, not his playing in the video. I have no doubts he can play this, but maybe not that squeaky clean.
It’s honestly so impressive how Christian has been able to adjust his style given his condition, such a hard working musician. Also that RG is friggin beautiful, proud to say I have a very similar 652 model
@@sayanmandal2246 not a 100% sure about it, but as I read and listen from other people with the condition, the pressure generated by the gloves helps stop the fingers from twitching and trembling too much so that chances of his finger being contracted are reduced.
Chris' playing on Cosmogenesis changed my approach to guitar. I've been a fan of everything he touches since then. And he just keeps getting better, incredible.
Я позже на Obscura с Крисом попал. Через Necrophagist в 2020. Так бывает. И тоже полное переформатирование. Я счастлив, что в моём времени есть такой композитор! ✊
Thank you for this comment, I was wondering why he use a glove, but I guess it has something to do with his disease. I love Obscura but I dont know much about the dudes, other than they all are extremely talented of course
Dude is ten times the guitarist I'll ever be, without even having the use of his middle finger. So damn inspiring how he worked through what would have stopped most musicians in their tracks. Insanely good album too.
@@clem_chret He has focal dystonia. I believe the glove allows him a little use of his middle finger, but without it, he basically had to relearn guitar with one less finger. Here you can tell the way he uses it less and the position it's in that his hand still has some issues.
@@Circaninesix Inkniw his condition but I though it concerned his whole hand. But yeah about his middle finger, it seems he is using it less then we would do but he is using it :)
I wished i could sell my soul for these guitar skills but sadly i am a redhead. On a more serious note this makes me happy. Happy that there is a new album, happy that Christian is back and happy that he found a way to still play guitar on a top master level despite the condition. If you read this Christian: you rock, i wish you tons of guitar related fun that is not spoiled by the condition.
All you need to sweep cleanly is a decent lead tone with not too much gain, a noise gate (which doesnt affect the sound when you're actually playing a note), and a good technique. He's also using the neck pickup for the solo. You don't need to heavily chop anything. (Also please do not turn the volume knob on your guitar to max.)
@@lashedandscorned Why not have volume at max... Always been curious about this, I can understand with like EMGs but as someone who uses passives, why not.
I just saw Obscura last night in Calgary and I was at the front not even two feet away from Christian and I was absolutely blown away when Solaris was being played and whenever he would play a lead. Truly inspiring
Such a sick player and sick song! And can we talk about how on point those sweeps are with the rhythm of the double bass at 0:54, 1:58, and 3:28?? just mind blowing how they can keep in sync with each other so cleanly like that 🤯
Brilliant is an understatement, the riffing is mind-blowing. His ability to cleanly switch between down-picks, up-picks and alternates, plus sweeps in a superbly seamless fashion is incredible.
From 2:41 to 2:58 i have evidenced the most amazing neoclassical arpeggio runs i would love to know the chord progression there there was so much tension carried OMG Bach in neoshred😍😌
Been listening since these guys since 2010. Love how they can write play so many things; full-on (neo)classical, death metal, jazz, or even give techdeath a really ethereal sunday chill vibe like the song Akroasis. Truly outstanding musicians!
Christian is the best guitar player probably in all history just because he manages to encompass all the evolution of the instrument in his compositions I mean... For real we guitar players should learn the way he did is the pinnacle of guitar 😮😮😮
Loving the sonics of this record (along with the crushing riffs I've heard so far). So crisp and clear with a #savage low end. 😏 Can clearly hear everything going on. 👊 Great playthrough Christian!
Wow. I keep typing about how he does something sick and then I delete it because I see something better I want to mention… every aspect is sick. His right hand looked about as loose as my mom after her divorce. Phenomenal
I just checked A Valediction on Wikipedia and wow I didn't know Muenzner wrote that much material in A Valediction, he's more talented than I thought, although I already knew he was
Enjoy your life Chris my friend. I am also the chosen one. Have a good night. I hope you have a good life too and I mean that from one neoclassical guitarist to the next.

Are the tabs available as guitar pro files?
Christian plays at 75% better than most players at 100%
And with Focal Dystonia
A true tech death legend...his contribution to modern tech death is unmatched..

Dude's a fucking legend.
And now obscura? He’s been in the band before this, like 2008-2014
Christian always been a complete inspiration since Necrophagist and now to see his level of playing evolve despite focal dystonia is simply the best

You just love to see those hands working at such optimal capacity, after Münzner's disease (focal dystonia)
@@chopholtz4950 Oh, I meant "after" being diagnosed with it, and having to find a way to adapt to it - sorry.
I agree. He's a fucking beast that doesn't give up.
That harmonized part with the neapolitan & diminished chords is really cool as well.

That Power Metal solo is godlike! I haven't been this excited for an Obscura release since Omnivium!
Damn, that solo section is something Tony MacAlpine would be proud of!
I just saw Obscura last night in Calgary and I was at the front not even two feet away from Christian and I was absolutely blown away when Solaris was being played and whenever he would play a lead. Truly inspiring

Αριστούργημα
A masterpiece
amazing, i want to see u playing when stars collide
El mejor guitarrista que he visto en persona lml
Chris, you are an absolute inspiration.
It blows my mind how anyone can be this good at guitar.
From 2:41 to 2:58 i have evidenced the most amazing neoclassical arpeggio runs i would love to know the chord progression there there was so much tension carried OMG Bach in neoshred😍😌
Can you indicate Bach songs that sound like this? I just know the fugue in Toccata and Fugue in D Minor
i keep coming back to this so often, i think this is going to be one of my all time tech death songs of the century, ngl
2021 is hands down the best year in death metal in a very long time.
Truly is going...It started strong then It stang....finally from angust on It seems that every death METAL band would release an album!!
Been listening since these guys since 2010. Love how they can write play so many things; full-on (neo)classical, death metal, jazz, or even give techdeath a really ethereal sunday chill vibe like the song Akroasis. Truly outstanding musicians!
He's so graceful its insane, looks inhuman. He makes it seem like anyone in the world can do that
Christian is the best guitar player probably in all history just because he manages to encompass all the evolution of the instrument in his compositions I mean... For real we guitar players should learn the way he did is the pinnacle of guitar 😮😮😮
Holy shit, that was orgasmic. The songwriting, musicianship and production quality is incredible. I can't wait for this album!
A God among men. So much respect. A true master.
the best glove that I have never seen
This man literally a God
I'm crippled if I have a glove in the same room while practicing my guitar! let alone wearing one :D
The guitar work on these 3 new songs is completely out of this world!
This is the best obscura song in a while, so stoked to see Christian and Jeroen again. I can’t wait to learn this one.
this guy is so insane!!! lucky I found his works in TH-cam a couple months ago... can't stop listening to this
Stabwound solo vibes, Munzner so good
A fucking glove while playing.... next level Christian
That guitar solo & nasty ass riff throughout the track tho 😍😍 more reasons to add to why Christian is my favorite modern day metal guitar player.
You're inspiration Christian, so glad you're back in the band 🤘
Loving the sonics of this record (along with the crushing riffs I've heard so far). So crisp and clear with a #savage low end. 😏 Can clearly hear everything going on. 👊
Great playthrough Christian!

Herr Münzner, Es ist sehr bewundernswert, Sie trotz allem spielen zu sehen. Danke für alles.
insane
Impressive!
We ask, you guys always deliver!! Thank you!
First the gardening, then the shredding
Christian for the win. I feel like you guys had much more fun doing this record than any previous. I'm here for it.
Master of tapping 🔥🔥🔥
Favorite guitarist is back in my favorite band. Life is good
My favorite guitarist
0:16 Darkane Convicted!
Simply amazing mr. Münzner! Great to see you back!
This is the best glove commercial I've ever seen!
One of my absolute favorite guitarists & imo one of few modern tech death metal bands that stands out
Up down up down.Boom!
Christian is 1# he is the best
Unreal!
Simply pressing repeat after the playthrough doesn't do this justice... I always need to rewind manually that's how awesome this is.
Beautiful guitar and insane guitar. Waooo.
The slightly less attacked low E note at 0:23 gave you away as being human!
Monster
I hope you're not in pain. Best wishes for a quick recovery!
Love the "At the Gates" hint in there.
Wahnsinn
Everything about this is perfect. I'm beyond excited for this album now. It's great to hear Christian back in the band.
His hand is the fret wrap.
The intro to this song is just complete fucking insanity lmfao
He always makes it look so effortless
Maestro
Yeaaah baby Now that's what I'm talking about
I just checked A Valediction on Wikipedia and wow I didn't know Muenzner wrote that much material in A Valediction, he's more talented than I thought, although I already knew he was
I started to watch this for inspiration and by the end I realized I need a new hobby.
crazy that he can still play like this with his focal dystonia.
Genius
i love the glove
So glad he's back in Obscura.
christian is aweinspiring!great band too cheers
Heck yeah!!! Wish i could give millions of likes to this! Such an extremely brutal and melodic playing at the same time! Excellent!

Keep on rockin Kristian! Incredibly amazing!
The Master has returned

Fuck that was one of coolest videos I've ever seen, what a killer song. insane performance by mighty Christian as always.
No wayyyy. Finally !
Christian needs to make a song with Scott from Scott’s Bass Lessons!
Обожаю Вас!!!!
He is the best! Welcome back!
Absolutely fantastic. Can't wait for more
