I don't know why everybody is complaining about them being tuned so low, me personally I love it and it only adds to the dark and heavy atmosphere, you can't get any more metal than that.
When it comes to heavy metal, it shouldn't be lower than E. The only stuff where it could fit is some semi-modern doom metal or stoner rock, but then that's usually not very good music. Heavy metal needs some contrasts. It can't be all dark. You appreciate the heaviness/darkness in the music more if it's contrasted with some lightness.
Those guitars just sound insane. Pure liquified hatred slowly dripping from the speakers... Tom's solo starting at 2:50 is stronger than a fucking army. I just love this band, no one else can do that, not at this quality. Celtic Frost deserves a throne.
Thankfully managed to catch their reunion tour in 2007, was a hell of a gig, it really stayed in my mind afterwards. Killer atmosphere and a brilliant performance.
I managed to catch two concert during their 2006 tour. Even managed to have a little nice chat with them after their concert at Sweden Rock Festival 2006. Very polite and softspoken. I got my denim jacket signed as well. And i feature in their Documentary that the swiss television made, where the appearance at Hole in The Sky were shown 😎
very awesome indeed! it sounds waaaaaaaay more deathmetal than the original which is more thrashlike... but both versions is godlike and of course the band :P
@pointnozzleaway It is. You can find a live recording of this song, and Dethroned Emperor on Triptykon's Shatter EP. It's not the same concert, those were recorded at Roadburn Festival in 2010, but the quality is the same.
Barbwire Cockring listen to monotheist their last album and you understand that they can't adapt their tuning for their oldest song. and this is not a bad thing, like what you say it's still "sound great".
Maybe they thought the original tuning between E and F was a hassle. Yes, they used a tuning that was technically... incorrect, for the lack of a better word.
Never mind I'm slowly figuring it out, have my tuner out... Tell you all the tuning for this pretty quick. :p Don't ask why I'm doing this, but I somewhat prefer live than studio. x3
@fatesrush If you are here for the look, and you care about how they look...then you are the sad one,CF is still GREAT no matter how their outfits look
The only black metal band I really dig. Venom, well, they aren't exactly BM, and I tried very hard digging Bathory, but I've only managed to like A Fine Day To Die...
First back Patch on my Jacket in 84. With 13.

Cheyenne Ball when it comes to METAL....the lower the better

Fast songs shouldn't be tuned low its sounds empty and just wrong
Actually no drop d tuning sounds fucking awful and is one the many reasons modern metal babds lack atmosphere
🤘🏻💯❤️
R.I.P. Martin Eric Ain
Am I the only one that loves the low tuning?
To me it sounds fucking brutal, that moment they start the riff fucking shit
Can't beat the original, this simply murdered it. Brutal beyond comprehension. Brutal, low, fast, and on point.
Shane Rone I fucking hope not!
ULTACRUNCHYBRUTAL
I think its heavy as fuck.interpetation folks

RIP GREAT MARTIN ERIC AIN 🎸

No band can go blacker or heavier than Tom G. Warrior's stuff!
TMT, heaviest album of all time. I just wish he still played like that. And shit, they were in standard tuning
The way martin headbangs while the slower riffs commence Is just so fucking chilling. It's great.
It just doesn't get better than this! Perfect
Benchmark stuff this. Few have reached that mark.
it sounds a lot heavier than before...I like it!
What is ur profile pic of? Ive seen it all over TH-cam. The cybernetic woman's face thats green with the grid behind it?
Martin Eric Ain. RIP :'(
To Mega Therion one of the best Albums,way ahead of there time. Great Band.
Awesome. Classic song, classic band. Hail Celtic Frost.
I love this song!
It would be killer if John Tardy made a guest appearance on vocals... Love that cover. HAIL CELTIC FROST \m/
Sounds awesome full stop.......🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
It's nice to hear a live song played slower & heavier, most bands speed it up.
Celtic frost love you and Bobby
I didnt think this song could have ever sounded more bad ass than it did in the 80's! One of my favorite bands of all time.
the song starts at 60 bpm and ends at 120
awesome.Thanks for posting this .
RULERS SUPREME OF ALL EXTREME METAL!!!! HAIL CELTIC FROST!!! SHINE ON FOREVER!!!!
So lucky to see these Gods on the Monotheist tour. It can never happen again.
The guitar Tom is using is called The Iceman. Greg Lindstrom i think used one in Cirith Ungol.
Una de las mejores canciones de la historia 🤘
🤘😈🤘
To mega therion una obra maestra.
Circle of the tyrants
The exorcist possessed
Outbreak of evil sodom
There is not a version of this I can't listen to. Greatest Metal song of all fucken time!....
No doubt
Love the sound
Love the look on Tom's face at 2:36!
Love this song,cant beat a bit of old school thrash etc
@ThrashMetaltillDeth I know. The "new" Celtic Frost i was talking is their last album, Monotheist.
I am ashamed that I’ve never seen these guys live.
+1
Saw them with voivod in 85!🤘
@AlbertFisher119 Yeah... For one thing, it's very low. |D It goes: B, E, A, D, G, B (and E if you have a 7 string). Took me a while, but I got it. :)
Wow satanic guitar riffs at their best Celtic Frost rule!
Awesome!
awesome show, wish I was there
Hail to the KING.
SO BEYONDD AWESOME OMGG
very awesome indeed! it sounds waaaaaaaay more deathmetal than the original which is more thrashlike... but both versions is godlike and of course the band :P
@pointnozzleaway
It is. You can find a live recording of this song, and Dethroned Emperor on Triptykon's Shatter EP. It's not the same concert, those were recorded at Roadburn Festival in 2010, but the quality is the same.
AWESOME 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
O lendário Celtic Frost!!
I think it sounds better tuned low heavy af!
so epic!
WTF Tom??!! Bailed on the scream at 3:20
That scream really ties the song together...weakens the climax without it...
Kocham to.
This is fucking awesome!!!!
IDOLOS!!!!!!!
Pls come BACK!!!!!!!! FROST!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course, that goes without saying, but it is even more satisfying when listening to some Celtic Frost!
i wish this was on CD !!!
Another excellent version is Triptykons live version on their Shatter EP, promise you will love it
Definitely has that Morbid Angel feel loving it though
one of the coolest performance, because of their darkness and outfit
@Spencer12404
Monotheist was tuned in B-Standard(BEADGbB.). Not Drop C. Regardless, fucking great song, even in the lower tuning.
The gods
They sound great but I agree why the hell are they tuned so low?
Becuz it makes them heavier and More Doom-ish
Barbwire Cockring listen to monotheist their last album and you understand that they can't adapt their tuning for their oldest song. and this is not a bad thing, like what you say it's still "sound great".
I guess they couldn't just change guitars on stage like so many other bands do?
Maybe they thought the original tuning between E and F was a hassle. Yes, they used a tuning that was technically... incorrect, for the lack of a better word.
Lilith Silveira I like the picture of you at the beach. 🙂 hi
prima schade das die zusammen aufgehört haben
Epic.
classic
Why are they tuned so low, its not like Tom ever really had to try to sing in key, they could of easily played in E.
Classic frost.
Put the playback speed to 1.25 to get the song's original rhythm (more or less).
Never mind I'm slowly figuring it out, have my tuner out... Tell you all the tuning for this pretty quick. :p Don't ask why I'm doing this, but I somewhat prefer live than studio. x3
2:52
2:56 what is this?
I wish I was at Wacken.
Mothers are in the North and Swiss and France arranged in English. I don't think any JapaNish are there!
Cool as Hell!@
Wow and fuking wow again!!!!
great song!!
... is it me or the drummer speeds up the beat as he plays double pedal?
Que chimbaaaaa
I'm curious... Does anyone know the tuning for this? I can't figure it out, it's so low. I'm trying to do a cover for that is why. o.O
Circle Of The Tyrant.
Tyrant.
Fast songs shouldn't use low tuning it just sounds
Massacra
fuck yeah
@fatesrush If you are here for the look, and you care about how they look...then you are the sad one,CF is still GREAT no matter how their outfits look
@BlueDragon7511 did you get it ?
What is the tuning of the bass?
In the "To Mega Therion" album the tuning is between E and F, that doesn't make sense I know, but they did it. Here the tuning is BEAD.
i want a fuckin reuonion right now!!!!!!
This in B tuning
A real killer .Salute....
You mean you don't want to do that all the time regardless?
OUGH!
celtic frost in hell... will never die !
at 1:50 that riff is so angry it makes me want to punch a rap star in the jaw.
the Green Hornet
leave Tom alone!!! (starts crying)
The only black metal band I really dig. Venom, well, they aren't exactly BM, and I tried very hard digging Bathory, but I've only managed to like A Fine Day To Die...
@OrdinaryTuber thx. ive done my research on bm by now haha huge fan of darkthrone and burzum. cheers
@OrdinaryTuber no harm at all, actually it was cool to read the comment after all these years, haha
The Big 4 are to me: Artillery, Sepultura, Metal Church and Celtic Frost!
Artillery were utterly shocking. What were you on about??? You basically have to differentiate yourself don't you.
so is 3:54
Anyways... They look pretty cool in those coats, kind of sinister looking. :p
lol, Eville Mime...
It's gotta be cold up in that bitch.
Here is my ranking of Celtic Frost's albums;
