we are alwaus underapreciated. i had a small band (me bass, two guitars rythem/lead and a drummer) and everyone in the town expects to hear guitar and drum, not mutch bass. "turn uour amp down" "we shouldent hear the bass, uour just support" im not stupid? right? right...
Thanos slapp this is my single biggest issue with comment sections on every social media. It shouldn’t but it annoys me so much people do this shit everywhere. Mf’s go straight to victimizing themsleves
I am a guitarist, but I have true and deep RESPECT for all bassists out there. Try to imagine that tune without bass, it's gonna sound weird, to say the least
I love the whole thing. The slow "original Mediterranean" beginning half was filled with old-world romance, and the modern Dick Dale tempo half kicked my ass to Neptune. All you needed was a trumpeter in there.
its not about the difficulty, he got the feeling of the music right. A great friend of mine used to say that anyone can play metal, but a few can get a funk part right.
I was one of the impatient ones until I read the comments! You're right these guys rock. God helped me and my patience -thanx god, thanx baby jesus, thanx virgin mary give, thanx holy spirit.
@@christianswildadventures5190 coming back to it again later on in life, though not that much further on, I understand now that dick Dale's version was a frenetic staccato updating of a folk traditional and they were presenting both, which I now appreciate a lot more than I did when I made my comments in the past
My dude on the drums is killin it, guitar gives me chills, and I don’t think this song would sound anywhere near the level of goosbumpery had it not been for the thicc ass bass licks
Surf Rock came before metal tho, therefore, Metal may be Surf Rock with distortion. Not the other way 'round. Surf Rock influenced metal immensely. There is no theory that metal influenced surf rock.
@@TemkaUwU Not sure about that, the sounds are pretty clean. The heavy spring reverb and single coil guitars you tend to see in surf rock do give it a bit of a bite but it's pretty clean.

@@TemkaUwU Leo Fender had to build a special amp and it still distorted. Before that his (Dick Dale) amps caught on fire.
I like how it started out almost as a 70's psychedelic rock piece, then went into pure surf-rock. You guys mastered both sounds, this definitely needs more attention.
This is literally the coolest cover I have ever seen. The “classic” Greek style in the beginning, subverting your expectations, then kicking up to 100 and absolutely blowing me away. No words
Handsome Jack not all of us can choke a chicken as fast as you can.... To be able to rapidly pick the string consistently at that tempo is a challenge... just cos the song itself isn’t technical doesn’t make it easy...
Nah, come on, he's okay. Only thing I can't understand why is he so shy in the beginning? You cold do all kinds of stuff in that moddy and smooth greek/turk intro type. You can have some sweet nice hit-hat love, and some snare smooth downtempo triplets, like "flashy" but chill and low. It would sound much more complicated with some of this licks.
I’ve been obsessed with the bass line and I’ve finally figured it out by hearing and looking at his fingers! And now we play this in my band!!! Love this video so much! Keep playing!
What do we have here? A very creative interpretation of a well-known song. What do peole talk about? The bass player's looks. Jesus Christ you people. Anyway, great cover guys.
The slow intro feels like a respect to the original Greek song with the same name and then at the middle part where Dick dale kicked in, it became perfect.
The into has a very "Velvet Underground" type of feel to it. The song mainly uses Arabic scales which are psychedelic. So it's cool to see them utilize that, then proceed to turn it up to 11 two minutes in and slay the song.
I've been looking for some non-copyright Dick Dale music and this is really great quality. Would it be possible to use this in a short film, with credit given of course?
Actually, this isn't copyright-free. The original arrangement is copyrighted and whoever owns the rights could basically sue both this band (unless they actually bought a license to use it) and you for using it.
I love the sound. Recorded in a basement, the drums sound so cool. Especially the ride cymbal. All sounds nice and old school. Perfectly executed, guys. Thanks for the obvious hard work.
Dear All, This is a Greek song the title of which is MISIRLOU meaning "Egyptian girl",, written by a Greek person who loved this girl when in Egypte there was living in Alexandria a big Greek community which left Egypte in the decade of 1950 because of political events at that moment. It is not a surprise that the Greeks can write such beautiful songs because they have invented MUSIC 3000 years ago.
they all look like their instruments
yes

there are multiple comments saying they were gonna change the video till they heard them play faster lol

How could you dislike the intro? Its just 3 dudes vibin
MarkusBarkus Exactly
yeah its so nice. Really cool feel
Best part is that it still keeps to the surf rock spirit (think of Surf Rider) before going all out.
Vibe check: passed

Lol

he was born in the skins

I don't really understand why do people not like the intro. It's my favourite part, it's the original greek version.
I think It’s a bit long
Apoc 2626
That’s the point
Idkhowtokms that literally changes nothing. Still not the best choice
Mihai Mike what’s the name of the original Greek version, again?
@@gabrielgalvis6697 Well, Misirlou...
People are overlooking that bass player way too much, they sense of rhythm is incredible
...

*they* ..even more disrespectful
You don't need to point out that the bass player is being overlooked, it's an universal fact
I am a guitarist, but I have true and deep RESPECT for all bassists out there. Try to imagine that tune without bass, it's gonna sound weird, to say the least
I’ve tried it. It sounds empty and unsatisfying to say the least
bASS bASS bASS bASS!!!
Slap like
Hardest thing about playing bass is tuning the thing
Yes you right
Imagine? When you try to listen to it from a phone speaker?
I love the whole thing. The slow "original Mediterranean" beginning half was filled with old-world romance, and the modern Dick Dale tempo half kicked my ass to Neptune. All you needed was a trumpeter in there.
Agree
It sounded really neat! God bless 💓
Plus the Jazzmaster sounds fecking awesome
Well that escalated... slowly!
wait
Loudy I didn’t escalate tho.
Don’t skip the intro! It’s the buildup that makes this cover so unique and cool
hey
x10
I love how the guitarist does a smile before jumping in at 1:57 and shredding that shit
That's when i knew to grab the handrails and hold on tight.
Stares right at the camera
I actually like how they did this. Slow build up then just thrash it out, great take on the the song IMO
agreed, this is awesome!
yea they had us for a loop xD
Bob Barker I’m pretty sure he was joking six year old
"the the song"
These TH-cam have their brains fried and a short attention span!! Can't handle a slow intro. Shame!
YOUR. DRUMMER. KILLED. IT. That guy was made to play drums!

it like Jazz sounds
It is not the intro....its the original!
Needs some "ah! Ah! HAAAAAAAA!"
@Arzola no no no lol
@Arzola absolutely notttt
Blacked eye peas???

Was I the only one who liked the intro?
Lachlan McLean nope
Sick I love it
Lachlan McLean I actually really liked it it had that egyptian surf style but it also kinda sounded jazz so no I actually really liked it too
It seemed a lot like Set The Control For The Heart Of The Sun

This is just another point in the theory that surf rock is just metal without distortion.

This version = Doom Metal
Surf Rock came before metal tho,
therefore, Metal may be Surf Rock with distortion. Not the other way 'round. Surf Rock influenced metal immensely. There is no theory that metal influenced surf rock.
Goji Other way around
I'm pretty sure that surf rock uses distortion. It's not as heavily distorted and it's more of a fuzz but it definitely uses distortion
@@TemkaUwU Not sure about that, the sounds are pretty clean. The heavy spring reverb and single coil guitars you tend to see in surf rock do give it a bit of a bite but it's pretty clean.

sad but true
When it comes to his looks nothing else matters
Josh Davies nice pun
XenoWolf VII glad somebody got it
not karl why do bassist pluck so much? I usually use my pick or just use my thumb because you never really play chords as a bassist
If anyone thinks that these guys are terrible, skip to 2:01 and then you will change your mind
+James Parkin I also posted a video of this yesterday. Added in a bit more than these guys :)
+James Parkin NO! EMBRACE THE CRESCENDO
121people didt read this comment or where just impatient xD
ejlo haha, yeah
understood :)
thanks so much
The slow part is so cool and clean I just love it
hey
This song automatically installed on the jazzmaster. Whenever someone touch a jazzmaster, he automatically knows how to play this song.
sampai sini hang
Can confirm
I like how it started out almost as a 70's psychedelic rock piece, then went into pure surf-rock. You guys mastered both sounds, this definitely needs more attention.
i like the bassists small dances
Lemon Squares ha ha. Epic "small dances"
From now on, i will do them when i play bass
When you say "small dances" I think about John Deacon :-(
Ah yes! I loved Deacon, and his little dances, but at least he's alive
its what u gotta do
Has a very desert wandering theme. My favorite version so far.
This is literally the coolest cover I have ever seen. The “classic” Greek style in the beginning, subverting your expectations, then kicking up to 100 and absolutely blowing me away. No words
Surf rock when there is no wave to surf
the real no wave music
oh just wait
i do not believe this is no wave music
What do you mean he go vllrrrrrmm dundundundundundun etc.
might as well call it wave pool rock lmao
Before you dislike, skip to 2:01
Thank you
Thanks bro
Watching the full thing is worth it
they had to weed out the weak lmao
WHY? LOL this is great!
2:13 fastest knob switching.
Pickup switch.
Guitar tuner*
Its definitely a pickup selector
@@muhdshuhairi609 it’s just a volume knob, it’s a precision bass which only has a volume and tone knob
Thought it was PJ Bass till i looked at the Knob controls lol
The bass line in the intro is amazing lol

Now the guitarrist plays in Dragonforce
Hahahah
@Pentex Sucks studioforce lmao

This song is actually quite easy.
Is not really technical, is just fast.

Cool
que haces aquí ocurrencia
Que haces acá xD?
Cool
saludos ocurrencia soy sub xd
Saludosssss, que haces aquí???
2:01 They got extra credit from their music teacher.
This is solid!! Great guitar playing for sure dude and the drummer killed it
Erik Giovani had to say nothing about bass man holding down? come on whys bass never get no love lol
Jay Adams the bass player dressed well...
Jay Adams because they don't understand bass... That's why
fuck the basist , i guess :))))))))
It's common that most people don't appreciate the bass. Although without it the rhythm section has always a significant difference.

I've never heard anyone take on Misirlou like this and its beautiful
Not gonna lie, they had us on the first half

Mooi mediterraans begin, dat is het hetgeen wat jullie cover uniek maakt van anderen en ik kom nog vaak terug bij deze video :)
Drummer before 2:00: my life is so boring after: Oh yeah baby
Ngl i like this whole thing equally, but the baseline on the Surf Misirlou section is so powerful and beats like a raging heart

Short and sweet! Perfect - just fantastic!
I love both versions. All three of you are AMAZING musicians!! Don't stop what you're doing!!
The intro is a good build up to the awesomeness.
Great to see young blokes keeping this music alive so well .
Intro is a solid vibe
Those who disliked watched only first half of the video.
Makes me want to go practice. Good job. This sounds less like surf rock and more like the original Eastern song
did.. you hear the second half of this version?
Ayy homie on the bass got every new bassist bass off amazon, still have mine!
Nice cover. I liked the intro. Knew what was coming. Very funny comment about looking like their instruments. Gave me quite a chuckle.
Awesome drumming!
awesome cover with a chilled intro, gnarly ;)
These guys look like if you told them they could do anything else in that moment they'd still be playing this song. Love this so much god damnit.
Wasn't sure what to make of this at first, glad I watched it all. Excellent cover guys, Mr Dale would be proud of you.
Drummer totally killed it !!
God damn that's is great drummer
What makes this so amazing is you can see the pleasure they get from playing together. Also that drummer is 🔥
I love the way they look each other in their eyes.
All they need is some soundproofing and better mic, and it'll be nearly indistinguishable from the original.
Amazing.
