#AILD #Metal #GuitarCover
*Fun fact, this was the song that introduced me to Metalcore 15 years ago*
My introduction was Hand of Blood by BFMV while playing NFS Most Wanted on the PS2 in 2005
, This Fire Burns by KSE which CM Punk in WWE used as his theme song for a couple years starting from 2006 and then I discovered AILD in 07 when they released An Ocean Between Us. Your throwback covers bring me back to those good ole days man. If it's not too much to ask I'd love to see you cover All That Remains' Two Weeks, full solo included. Or maybe something from Shadows Fall. They were icons of the 2000s metalcore scene too but I don't think I've ever seen a Shadows Fall cover from you. Cheers!
Haha, mine first was also Through Struggle
Same.... Good old times... I miss em
😂 same here
Please don't do anymore As I Lay Dying material this helps promote a group that doesn't deserve attention. The singer literally tried to have his wife the mother of his children killed taken off the face of this earth and the band let him come back. I understand forgiveness but this man doesn't deserve to be someone looked up to or idolized so please don't help promote them.
This song has one the best breakdowns ever.
the human abstract has the best lol
@@iangarza990 They are also incredible.
Fact
Check out Diamonds to Dust “Corpus Christi” - heaviest breakdown in the world - FACT
I really like this song's breakdown, can anyone give me some song recomendation that has this kind of breakdown, please
The OG! Now as an adult, these lyrics are much deeper.
Remember kids: dont hire a hitman to kill your wife.
the singer did that didn’t he?
@@clairvoyance672 yes
Wasn’t even a hitmen some dude he met at the gym turned out he was a undercover detective 😂
@@neilgrenier7622I thought it was his gym bro yeah
@@chief8825yeah, he was supposed to do nine years, but he ended up suing the prison because they didn't give him the proper medication to come off of the steroids. He was taking giving him. I think it's called gynecomastia. I literally remember the lawsuit being announced, and then everything about it was literally taken from the media, and Tim went quiet and a couple weeks later he was released from prison, but a lot of people miss the fact that this guy was Roid raging and after his wife has been cheating on him shortly after they adopted children, he was in a lot of pain, and just like every man says that they wanna killed the bitch that cheated on them bro was basically targeted he literally had no idea on how to hire a hitman or where to go with that, and the only person that ever brought it up to him about actually killing his wife was the cop it's not like he was searching for people with a cop showed up for the job well, being at the gym, pumping iron, doing crazy amounts of steroids while drinking some grown ass man basically called his bluff and didn't even really let him think for himself with three undercover agents cornering a is severely troubled man and letting him know that not to worry that they were going to handle this and to have the money ready upon sending the pictures admin, pretending to kill the wife and then forcing him to cough up money or they were going to snitch like what are you gonna do even in the court briefings he's like I'm not sure I wanna go through with this already and the undercover cops like well. We already called the guy we can't ever get a hold of him again there's nothing you could do about it from here on out so, as soon as they seen that he was freaking out, it was about to tell they decided that they were going to blackmail him and she giving him the money with fake pictures of his wife dead in which they had stage with the wife, which is super weird because like I kind of feel like it was set up by the wife to begin with because she got the cheat on him and take all his money and for some reason undercover cops within just a couple days of her being found out about cheating decided that she was going to help the undercover, cops, blackmail, this guy which no matter what anybody says you can tell by the length of time that he got that something fishy was going on that shouldn't of happened because if you pay somebody to kill somebody, you should be getting a lot more time in a couple years very sketchy, but just think to yourself imagine being cheated on by your wife and now you gotta get a divorce in which she gets to fuck other dude and take half of your money a like of course you're gonna tell her you're gonna fucking kill her but you don't really need that shit it was just that easy to set him up from there and take everything elsthe wife, obviously what's the one that set up the whole deal all the guy that was literally out of his mind from steroid use that's not right to literally in trap and swindle mentally ill man who is just a few hours into his depression, and realization of the fact that he's going to lose half of everything he got well she gets to cheat. Do you know how easy it is to manipulate somebody and how easy it is for the cops to be like hey don't worry about it I'll handle everything and we'll meet back here tomorrow. You see the cop the next day and he just says OK don't worry about it. Make sure you get the cash and he's like wait what I don't know about if I'm ready about that and the cops like it's already done there's no going back we can't ever talk to the hitman again. He realizes that Tim is about to tell EDD freak the fuck out about that shit so they go ahead and stage the pictures and blackmail him into giving the cops money that way they can say that he hired and paid him while using his wife and his mental illness against him it's not like this man was trying to set up murder for months at a time. It was an easy set up and manipulation on a person that was easily able to be considered mentally ill not to mention that he was taking all these steroids at the gym, the same exact place he was set up at so the cops knew that they were getting an easy target, and they were literally witnessing him take anabolic steroids in the bathroom in some cases in this transcript, they accused the undercover cops of actually being the person to sell him the steroid and shoot him up. Ain't that some shit imagine a cop literally putting you in to get direct fuck in rage psychosis have a new pump a bunch of iron and then just tells you don't worry man I'll take care of this for you and then the next day you get blackmail it seems like fucking entrapment and I don't care what anybody says because if he was legit trying to premeditatedly murder, or somebody like that. He should've got 20 years they let the man walk in two years for one of the most violent crimes imaginable. That's pretty suspicious.
Nik so bored in quarantine he’s out here learning everyone’s first metal song
It's not even the first metal song i listened to, the very first one was forever by kamelot, and it is great !
@@thecrazzxz3383 my first metal song was falling away from me by korn haha
I can't play the guitar, but I watch these screen tabs anyway for the nostalgia trip for songs like these.
Hi, how are you?
This song is super easy the 1st one I learned actually
ha! same here.
@@hunterhass04 i shall trust u and attempt to learn this song (even though i actually barely play guitar...)
@@washfish6483 it's simple and easy
Crazy how much you take for granted in a song until you see the tabs and watch someone play it closely. Great job my dude!
Or the other way around sometimes I’ve heard songs that sounded way more complex then they actually are when I found the tabs
Thank you!
This is a beast!!
*WE NEED TO SLEEP NIK*
I woke up at 1am
YOU WILL NEVER SLEEP AGAIN
DISAGREE
@@NikNocturnal sleep is for the weak!
Omg this is also the first metalcore song that got me into metal in my early high school year and another song by them called 94 hours !!! Good job man
Mine was through struggle and nothing left
94 Hours and Elegy!
Mine was pantera and their song my own grave
the human abstract still owns metalcore
THE DARKEST NIGHTS ;)
this is the most metalcore song ever made
One of my all-time favourite songs... Oh man, I am thirty and can still remember walking the halls in school listening to this beast of a song 24/7.
Awesomeness
As I lay dying, and this song in particular was a gateway into the world of heavier music. Remember being at college scrolling through iTunes on my iPod touch and stumbling upon their immense art work and was instantly intrigued. What a throw back! Thank yiu
as much as I hate Tim for trying to have his wife killed, I can't deny how much I love this entire album
Stop hating and redirect your energy to something positive 🤷🏻♂️
@Rafal Krukowski Facts.
@@xavier3578 it think there is a bit of irony in his comment xd
Hey, it happens man
wait wut... i didnt know... but why what happened???
I was introduced to As I Lay Dying when 94 Hours came out. When Confined came out, it kept me interested in the band. When Through Struggle dropped, I was a fan for life.
As I lay wondering where my band went
This is handsdown the best metalcore song ever written . My all time fav
I, for some reason, was so surprised to see you cover this song. 'Through Struggle' was the first song I'd ever heard from As I lay Dying and to see you cover it, I dunno, it made me so happy and excited to see you play this... So thank you.
The faces popping in got me dead asf 🤣🤣🤣
i thought i was tripping lmao
Still one of the sickest breakdown of all time
One of my all time favorite songs and you crushed it!
the first song I learned on guitar back in 2009, got me in the feels
Your first song??! 😲🤨
@@ttam3055 its a joke lol
Lol! My first was “Enter Sandman” - this is way harder!! 🤣🤣🤣
please tell me thats a joke about it being the first song...
3:50 I now envision these faces when I play pinch harmonics. thank u nik very cool.
These guys were my first show right after they released frail words collapse. I think I was around 14-16. Unreal show, that was the beginning of my love for all things metal.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate that breakdown
This has always been my favorite AILD song. This whole album is so fuckin good. This band and Trivium both really got me into metal core
YOOOOOO my man already with 330k Subs. I remember the days with just a few thousand around. Keep it up Nik you are awesome !!
Always gotta appreciate a throw back and a banger such as this one. I miss oldschool metalcore, this was one of the first songs that made me love metalcore, I'm a core kid at heart. I think imma listen to some throw backs today just because of this
What current bands do you listen to?
@@jeremyzamorano4774Periphery, Gojira, Knocked loose, After the Burial, Pierce the Veil, Rivilin, Underoath, ect
My first Metalcore band as well, bought a headbangers ball compilation album and it had Confined on it. Still love that album.
last time I was this early all our favourite Metalcore bands were still heavy.
Too real 😔
At least AILD still heavy
And Tim was accused of murder
this song is one of the best metalcore songs ever created man, that shit got me into it
OMGGGG MY FAV SONG BY THEM I LOVE YOU FOR THIS THANK YOU!!!!
Still one of my favorite breakdowns towards the end. Just makes me feel alive.
Weird. This was my introduction to any kind of hard music. I remember saying to myself idk what they are saying but I love it lol. Thanks for keeping this older music alive. Brought me back
People like you that do these kinds of cover videos w/ the tabs to follow along and learn are an absolute blessing to guitarists all over the world. This is the most solid cover of this song I've seen, and it will be the video I use to help me learn this song. It sounds absolutely bang on, and you did an amazing job on this💯🔥🎶🤘
today marks the 1 year mark of my guitar journey and im proud to say i can play this now. thanks for the tabs nik!
I remember seeing this on MTV2 in high school and was freaking out haha.
mans eyes rolled into the back of his head that riff was soo sweet
this is the funnest song to play as a beginner.ive been playing for a year and a half and spent the hole time learning this
Having flash backs to when i used this song for an english assignment in high school lol
Haha
Did you pass?
Did the rest of the class and the teacher like it?
AILD was my first introduction to extreme metal as well but the song was 94 hours right before the album came out. Love these videos from you cuz i get to learn how to play some of my all time favorite songs. Thanks for helping the scene stay alive and well.
This is probably my favorite AILD song of all time. Like you, it was one of the main contributors towards my interest in metalcore.
I liked before I watched.
love how you're doing all the classic metalcore stuff from back in the day lately
Ah yes, first breakdown ive ever heard as a kid. I was blown away
Parkway Drive, As I Lay Dying and Killswitch Engage was the first metalcore bands I heard. Awesome playthrough
As I lay dying is such a classic metal core pioneer of a band...💯🤟
JUST WHEN I NEED IT I WAS TRYING TO LEARN THIS SONG BUT I COULDNT FIND GOOD TUTORIALS THANK YOU NIK
I gotchu dw
Been learning this all day but your tabs are way more accurate! 30 year old original scene kid attempting to relive some of the good ol days 🤟
This album was such an upgrade from their previous album and that was the album that got me into As I Lay Dying
Im soo glad I knew metal before this and after knowing this back in 2005, i wo t lie i was surfing TPB and found it in suler high quality just fellin love with it instantly
I'm definitely going "Through Struggle" trying to learn this song. As I Lay Dying songs are always difficult for me. lol
Song that got me into metal was actually As I Lay dying too, except it was The Darkest Nights. Saw the video on Headbangers Ball when I was up past my bedtime.
That last breakdown. Simply perfection.
1:23 When she doesnt have memes :(
I covered this song the last year with a vídeo quality from 2006 xD, awesome cover Nik, thanks for the great quality content 🤘
man I played this song with my band back in middle school, thanks for reviving those memories Nik!
The nostalgic cover we needed.
Fucken nostalgic. One of the best breakdowns ever made.
Even though I STILL understand the last words of the song to be "GAJA WAJAA STRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU"
This album came out when I was 16 and it haunted my iPod for years.
Damn Nik... the old cover was already awesome, but you keep impressing with the great covers. Keep up the good work dude, channels like yours helped me get into metalcore
I had learned this one half assed but your tabs are so spot on...
I'll do it again
This has been my warm up song for 17 years.
THE most melodic metal song i have heard, thank you so much nik
.... really?
August Burns Red is closer to actual melodic metalcore if you haven’t heard them already.
This is the last song i heard at a live show before current events. This took me back to that moment.
Bad ass. Your videos crack me up😂. The random shots of your face lol
I remember when i first heard this song. Sweet memories
Always one of my favorite songs to play by them
Hipa is a god!
My favorite as I lay dying song guitar wise has got to be the sound of truth. But this is definitely up there
One of the greatest metalcore songs of all time, and my personal favorite. Thanks, my dude.
Thanks Nik i broke my whole house down and insurance will not cover it, good shit bro
hitting us hard with that nostalgia these days Nik
0 dislikes till now. That‘s the positive power of the Metalcommunity 🤘
that face at 3:50 LMFAO. brilliant insert
Nik being like, I'm gonna start covering y'all guy's childhood and edgy teen years. And you know what, I love it.
I feel like this is the metalcore most people have heard but I love it.
As Lay Dying was a big stepping stone in metalcore from me. I would not be the Metalhead I am today if it wasn't for them
at 0:09 you make a reference to your first Through Struggle cover. that amazing Bro.
Genuinely my favourite band ever, also the first band that got me into Metalcore... Fucking love that you've covered this. My vote actually counted 😂😂
Thank you for the confirmation that I am playing this right
Absolute classic
Damn I’m glad I just found this video. I had completely forgotten this song existed! *enter nostalgia*
You play it with ease!!!! I can only imagine how many hours you have played your guitar!!! Bad ass man!!!
Lol, he's probably played this song 500,000 times. This is a very popular "first metal song" to learn for people his age. It was my first as well lol. It's not that hard and repeats a few simple patterns in different ways. It's still fun and cool that he did this tho.
@@WrexShepard yeah im really enjoying the patterns its a very fun song to learn .... I've mostly played old school so its fun to approach a different style...
I was waiting for you to cover this song for so long x)
How is he only at 300k subs, come on people get this man to 1 mill
Beautiful my brotha, inspiration fs in my books.
Your music helps me through a lot man thanks for doing what you do
A song that followed me throughout my life thank you
As I lay dying still the kings
best metalcore song
This song resumes early metalcore in 4minutes
your fucking cut scenes on your face are the shit. i was dying of laughter. good cover and fun to watch
As I Lay dying = GOAT
Top 10 favorite songs to play on guitar for sure. Also my first AILD song I ever learned
the song that started the journey for me
Im practicing this song everyday. Thank you for this cover and tabs Nik.
My favorite band of all time no lie
Huge respect! It's not an easy song to play ;)
Thank You Mr.Nocturnal
One of the songs we played with my band back in 2012-2014
Such a good song ✌️🤘🏻 good cover! I’ll probably listen to this band till the day I die.
You will listen to it till' you lay dying?
@@februalist4686 hahaha yassss
