Ok. That's it. Im convinced. A few of the people who exist out there and can play this song front to back need to band together and play this live since Meshuggah won't Would be a show experience for the ages.
@@Sasquatch33 Why does nobody think the psychotically quasar collidingly heavy opening riff of Sum is just as worthy of a mention as Dehumanization. That whole chunk is insane. Personae Non Gratae rules too. But yes agreed.
@@Zyborggian I agree with that aswell. That drop in Personae is one of my favorite Meshuggah riffs of all time. My only problem with Sum is if it were in a live setting, after that awesome opening riff, it's pretty much the same clean riff repeated for 5 minutes.
Finally a cover I’m convinced of, you can actually hear your guitars unique tone. The other covers all you can hear is the backing track and a tone that sounds identical to the backing track.
I don't know how you hold your pick like that and don't get carpal tunnel syndrome a minute into the song. It obviously works for you though. You and Marty Friedman. lol
You're one of very few people on this planet, who knows what it feels like to finally lock in at 10:33 - must've been nice but you definitely earned it too..!
Fucking insane. I can play a few parts here and there but there is no way I have the endurance to play for a while, ESPECIALLY the riff at 5:40 and onward til the break. Awesome job, dude. By the way, what tabs did you follow? I am using the Ultimate Guitar pro tab. Also, what string gauge?
Thanks so much!! Honestly I learnt most of it by ear except some parts I used the songsterr tabs. And I use the Ernie ball skinny top heavy bottoms (9-80)
big brained!!!! how can you remember everything in this song when its so random even the guys who created it said they cant play it live becuz its too hard to remember
If you have a little peak at my desk you’ll see a notebook. In case i forget anything, I can look back at the rhythmic structure of any given part (which happens to be a lot of them haha)
Thanks so much for the kind words, I used an Ibanez rg8 (yes, with the stock pickups) and an 100 watt peavey vypyr amp, then I just plug that into a mixing desk to eq it
Sick. How did you get better at alternate picking this song with the thick gauges? I’m having a lot of trouble. I probably just need to keep alternate picking sections really slow and then raise my speed up.
If you’re using thick picks that might be part of it. More effort to push a stiffer pick through a string. You can always get slightly lighter strings too. Just make sure they aren’t too thin and sound like garbage at that tuning. Also hydrate. My picking hand cramps up super quick when I’m dehydrated. Hydration is good for you.
@@13_cmi thanks. I use a 1mm tortex and am currently using custom .009 to .70 gauge. I feel like that’s way too light because I am accidentally bending the low F string and it doesn’t sound heavy enough. Do you think both of these combined may also play a factor in having a hard time alternate picking/missing strings?

They'd also have to play catch 33 in its entirety for a whole show. Dehumanization live with the build up would be insane.

@@Sasquatch33 They could always cut down the number of repeats after it gets to the very very last motif
This song really doesn’t lend itself to a live performance
this should get you about a billion views and an honorary music degree
The most underrated Meshuggah cover on youtube

The first and only one take cover yet. Congratulations.

@@gustavodeyermoyparres4615 Who else did a one take cover? Everyone else did it in parts.
First was probably @SamMooradian 8 years ago
This is insane bro props

@@lykarsh Respect for being able to pick and mute so fast on an 80 gauge. I dropped to 9-70 on the M80M.
How long did this take you to learn?
Forever haha. In seriousness this took about 2 months
@@lykarsh that's seriously quick dude
@@lykarsh the neighbors wondering why your washer was broken for two months straight
This is what I was thinking about for a long time, thanks for inspiration, Sir! You have nailed it and it sounds really good.
Some say Lykarsh is still one I'ing, er, I one'ing.
Hand cramps!!!!
absolutely insane
13:30 that's a fn shepard tone there. 10/10
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hellllll yes dude!
"Sorry in advance"? Dude, this is awesome. More than most are or will be able to do. Congrats on getting this so well done!
you are god
I am praying to the dark lord Kramdar that Meshuggah see your video❤🤘

what gear did you use?

Congratulations on the cover, it's a beast of a song
You are an incredible talent. And an existential thinker.
This deserves more than a million views
DA
Amazing bro!!🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
Excellent play through, my dude. If you see this comment, could you tell me what string gauge you use?
Thanks dude! I use the Ernie ball 9-80 strings for that nice bass-y low string
@@lykarsh
Ok, cool. I use 9-74, but have been thinking about going to an 80, so I may just have to try it.
Good job man
This can't have been easy 😅 good job
DUDE !!!! Amazing !!
Bloody hell 😳

Hard to say really. I think it might be my picking technique (holding with three fingers) and definitely warming up was done before recording this

It’s a shame Meshuggah has never played this live.
At first I thought you were staring at your reflection in your monitor lol
!!!!!!!! Fucking well done, dope as hell
This is seriously one of the most impressive covers I have ever seen, cheers to that!
That is impressive!
Excellent job!
Incredible
