I have only recently discovered this beautiful cover of yours and honestly, I am amazed by your thorough comprehension of this music! I can no longer tell with certainty whether you uploaded this video before or after Varg showed the main riffs of the song on his channel - but who cares anyway. I was actually deeply struck on a personal level by Varg's performance in that video (even in such poor recording conditions...), since only then I realised that the acoustic guitar could capture much much better that sense of magic, fantasy and wonder of which Burzum is truly all about. However, Varg constantly interrupted the video with his comments and I simply couldn't enjoy the music as a whole! But your cover of Key to the Gate achieves precisely that - transport us all to that corner of marvel from Varg's overwhelming imagination. And I really thank you for that, man.
Yeh i really want to do a remake but i don't have a good mic and i don't have an acoustic guitar anymore sadly :c. Maybe i will do one with electric guitar but with clean sound and maybe some experimental shits
I feel like the acoustic version is rather calming in a way, compared to the raw & brutal sound of the original song with distortion and fuzz. Awesome cover nonetheless.
@@Almas_Bakembayev I think it's about Varg's wish to enter Hel, the underworld. He talks about how he wants the key to Hell, and how "love is for those lusting after the sky", most probably about Christians. I guess it's Varg's want to be with the Norse gods, far away from the Christians. IIRC he did say that to him, the Christian Hell is to him Heaven, where his ancestors dwell, while the Christian heaven is nowhere he wants to be. This is just my judgement on the lyrics.
Captured the magic of Burzum perfectly
thanks dude
When you wanna be brutal but your mom gets you an acoustic
"But Mooooooooooom :'c !!!" Relatable
You made something beautyful right here
thanks
the most ambient metal ever
The solo parts sound great.
i've always thought that this cover would sound better a little faster
@@f3mt.484 dude can you make it again with a better mic?
@@Storm-cu4vo I am going to do it again someday when i have a acoustic guitar again
@@f3mt.484 You'll do it again... "one day"! ;)
great cover! sounds very classical and calming.

@@f3mt.484 Definitely. Great cover, i seriously love the acoustic aspect of this. it's like a whole new song.
@@Kimster97 Yeah you can really dig a lot more into thoose sweeped arpeggios with the acoustic sound
@@Kimster97 If you like Xasthur then you would love an acoustic cover that i have from that band that really sounds like a whole new song too
Where is the picture from?
My ass
the gate of hell by gustave dore
OH NICE GREAT JOB I LOVE IT, YOU CAN TRY MAKEING A NEW VERSION MORE PORFESSIONAL
Yeh i really want to do a remake but i don't have a good mic and i don't have an acoustic guitar anymore sadly :c. Maybe i will do one with electric guitar but with clean sound and maybe some experimental shits
What is the name of the painting?
I don't remember but i think it was The Gates of Hell and it was from some biblic thing
@@f3mt.484 okay, thanks. I think it's a Gustave Dore drawing. did you use the same tabs as the regular version of the song?
@@klearkhoswashokani1797 Nope, i pulled out some things from ear so it's not exactly the same in some parts
@@f3mt.484 okay thanks. I can only play the solo part by now
I don't think the riff at 2:54 is played like this.
It sounds great though.
lol idk i've never noticed it, i need to hear the original song closer, thanks anyway xD
th-cam.com/video/oWaC8pDGeAI/w-d-xo.html
wow stfu
It's a cover it's supposed to be played different....
Mipiace
Lo so
can u send me the tab for the solo parts
It's easy to do. No need tabs. Just take by ear.
I feel like the acoustic version is rather calming in a way, compared to the raw & brutal sound of the original song with distortion and fuzz. Awesome cover nonetheless.
Evil converted into peace, Evil peace
Lawful Evil
Who knows the meaning of this song? Lyrics like DSBM though music is not
Lamenting the lack of imminent and meaningful reflections of spirituality in society and how mundane everything is.
@@spritefroggy Thank you
