Dean Attempts to Learn EP.12: Necrophagist (again)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ส.ค. 2024
- Today I attempt the first 30 seconds or so of the song "Stabwound" by Necrophagist. You can watch an earlier video where I attempt another section of this song, and I think I'll combine those two and power through the entire track as best I can. Keep an eye out for more videos!

Headless man plays guitar while talking head narrates. This is spooky
👻
That's a serious stabwound!
@@MrTubularBalls I wonder what they wrote for his Epitaph
@Sinister Mephisto "He was ignominious and pale, now only ash remains"
@@MrTubularBalls I truly hope he received the sacrament of Extreme unction before his body began to produce a fermented offal discharge
Dean: "Just gonna warm up here" *plays more notes than I've played in twenty years*
MAKE THIS TOP COMMENT
"I know Im going to forget that part as soon as I get to it but oh well"
Never has a more relatable thing been said
It's a very common thing in my brain, I'm always surprised if it doesn't happen.
Crazy to think that Muhammed played this flawlessly while also providing vocals.
Yeah, blows me away. Also, even just the composition is amazing, regardless of performance.
He is really genius
@@Avik-kiva I cannot agree more. He is really amazing. I pray for more every day. :(
@@DeanLambYou play and interact with folks on livestream at the same time. Equally if not more mind blowing.
New necrophagist album releasing any day now!
I am fascinated that he wrote Archsipre songs, and yet struggles with Necro, puts some things into context when Epitaph came out
Necrophagist is some of the most catchy, difficult, harmonically interesting and memorable death metal ever written IMO.
I think it is more playing someone else's style is hard for him since he is busy with his own style and practices.
The fact he can learn so fast and sound so good playing others music is amazing. Any tech death band is usually pretty insane, not easy to play whatsoever. Practice makes perfect my dude😎 oh and btw I have there tab book for the album still. Damn thing is nearly 14 years old
Travis Hunt TH-cam PhD I’m a Tech Death Guitar Player (25 years playing) and your comment hit the nail on the head. Your exactly right!
This is why I feel its always really important to dive into other guitarists styles. You might find something that sounds simple to your ears can be a big challenge because the guitarists starts with upstrokes or picks every note without any legato. Little things like that can really push you out of your comfort zone if you have already developed your playing to do the opposite. Its really challenging to re-program your brain and fingers to do something that feels unnatural.
The one giant every metal guitarist must attempt to slay at some point in their lives.
Literally why I'm here....
@@stevenhenderson1198 best of luck it is a fun challenge but nowhere near impossible
When engineers take on tech death = Necrophagist
German engineered tech death
Definitely.
DER TECHNISCHE TOD
I am Turkish and triggered by this comment.
Just kidding.
@@ugur7227 valla beklemezdim hem archspire hem necrophagist dinleyen türk
@@akin519 olur oyle
even the archspire's guitarist tries hard to learn it who am I to think for a try for this song
Everything in this genre is difficult hahaha.
For me it's kind of a motivation to see that even Dean is struggling when learning a song!
It took me about two weeks practicing for at least an hour a day to learn just up to the verse in this song. I'm not an amazing guitarist by any means (or even a good one for that matter), but if I could learn it, you definitely can. Don't let it scare you; make stabwound your bitch!
Jake Hardy thanks!
Never give up, Never surrender, defeat is a state of mind. Never accept defeat. Play until you break through or die.
I'm only 8 minutes in but I gotta say... To hear you (the guitarist of my current favorite band) struggle with Necrophagist is pretty inspiring and helpful. It makes me want to give this song another shot as well. Thanks for sharing!
No problem! Thanks for watching!
ok this was oddly very enjoyable, didn't expect watching someone learn a song would be this fun
Glad you liked it!
Man!! I am still waiting for the Jason Richardson episode!! Cuorious to see how you are gonna approach those ridiculous solos and riffs since you are a badass player as well!!!!
:(
And here I am doing the same thing with parts of Involuntary Doppelganger to help get myself used to 8 string I recently purchased. You're an inspiration man, stay tech 🤘
Thanks!
Lol the first time i was learning this i kept saying how cool and awesome it is too. Like every bar had something new and exciting. Damn i miss learning Necrophagist. Rarely anything gets me excited like this band did when i was learning their stuff. Epitaph is still one of my favorite albums ever, and it never would have been, had i not tried to learn it.
Pretty amazing album.
@@DeanLamb Just to throw it out there.. Gorod - Transcendence. Had to.
Please do some spawn of possession!!
Also ignominous and pale and fermented offal discharge by necrophagist please!!
ainsley oils up and rubs his meat but the solos of those songs!!!
And Blotted Science.
Bro that spawn of possession, literally have to be possessed to play.
I'll add SOP to the list!
Now that's a TALL ORDER 😂
I love these videos. You should attempt to learn some Spawn of Possession.
Yetimusmaximus I was going to comment the same thing. Do it Dean. You got it 🤘
Check my instagram for SOP playthrough somewhere...
The triplet part in mm. 4 is tapped. The 0-5-9-5-9 is all hammer on/pull offs. The 12 is tapped and pulled off into the 11-8 which is also a pull off.
Ah yeah, I felt better about not having to bring my right hand over to tap it, but I guess I can do the more accurate way next video lol.
Yea it’s definitely a hard part to tap, especially at 240 BPM!
Man I feel so much better about how long I spend learning this stuff now. Thanks Dean. Good tips on how to conquer tricky sections
Happy to help!
It really shows how great Necrophagist was. One of my favorite guitarists is having a...bit of a time learning it.
It's a blast watching you learn. Please continue the series!
Thanks!
watching necrophagist songs played is so sick... EVERYONE needs to look up Necrophagist epitaph guitar play through. The guy plays the entire thing front to back. its insanely awesome.
Agreed.
this was recommended to my on you tube, and i love it! shows the real human struggle we all deal with learning tabs.
The struggle is real!
I love your content dude. I'm not a big tech death fan but necrophagist and archspire are really awsome.
Thanks!
Learning this right now, and it gives me a lot of comfort and inspiration seeing someone at Dean's level of playing having a hard time just getting through the first part.
Do his greatest solo from Fermented Offal Discharge!
Ugh. It's on the list.
@@DeanLamb watching you play that solo would more than definitely assist me in my sorry attempt at learning it. Your videos are awesome man and are helping me a lot tbh. So keep it up!!!
I've waited a long time for this :o
Hahahah glad I could be of help.
This is why I cant stop lovin the same 2 albums of them... to much talents. Hope that a new band comes with similar talent and taste like this in the future
Me too!
Glad to see these types of videos. Makes me feel less shitty when other people go through learning curves
Glad to help!
It's so curious to see videos trying to learn a new song. It's great to see guitarists in every video in TH-cam doing crazy stuff perfectly, but this helps to make it clear that everybody needs practice and there's work behind those songs that they play apparently so easily.
I'm happy you dig the channel! I mess up all the time, I got tired of seeing everyone play so perfectly, recording the 100th take only.
I love this video series. It is somehow motivating. Thank you, Dean!
Glad I could help!
Realistic videos, I love it.
Thanks!
just started learning this yesterday and Dean uploads this Lol
Good luck!!! It's very difficult.
Always a pleasure watching your videos
Thanks Brian!
Love these vids man!
Thanks!
The progress you made in this episode alone is astounding. I've been trying to learn The Stillborn One for the last 6 months.
I can play some of that song. Not even going to bother with the solo though lol.
@@R3tr0v1ru5 Yeah I can only play the beginning up until the fast part.
@@itsybitsyzombie I can play the fast part... "Prepare to be!"
Ah man thank you so much!
I laugh cause your warm up looks like when I'm fully warmed up and trying doing my best
Yeah baby the best metal album ever written should not be easy!
Absolutely
Humble and inspiring! Cheers from Greece sir!
Thanks!
seeing you work on this in almost the exact same fashion I've been working on Remote Tumor Seeker is a soothing balm on my insecurities as a musician/guitar teacher.
Hahahaha glad I could help!
@@DeanLamb since i have your attention, relentless mutation was a massive inspiration/kick in the ass to me as an artist. i hope one day i make something even half as cool! cant wait for more
I love these videos, great job dean!
Hey thanks!
This always motivates me to pick up and practice, not that I'm anywhere near your level haha.
Thanks glad I could help!
Thanks for learning the rhythm parts this time ! Great video as always
Thanks dude!
47:45 it's absolutely genius u mean😁, u did a great job 👏thanks man & keep it up with necrophagist 🤘
Its amazing how fast u can put it together tho man. Its wpuld be sweet to here a full band cover of stabwound🤘🤘
I agree. That won't happen with us though, two very different bands.
Amazing video, man. Ever considered trying out some Revocation or First Fragment?
I have considered, maybe I'll do one of Dave's solos next video.
@@DeanLamb Hi, great job with this series, its great to see someone who knows his stuff trying to learn material from bands like necrophagist. Would you be up for doing some early decapitated as well?
The kind of person that would right this music is a genius bestowed upon the world by the gods of metal. IMO Muhammed is as important to elevating death metal as Chuck was to defining it. Both just dudes purely dedicated to their craft. I love to watch an elite player stumble through his riffs this much. It reminds me that extreme music brings out the most intense and passionate aspects of our human creativity.
Also now learn the whole song and play it cleanly while doing the vocals, haha. Props to you, sir. You're an inspirational talent.
@@WorldOfGiants hahaha thanks, I won't be attempting the vocals anytime soon.
You should do a "Dean Attempts to Learn his own warm-up routine" So I can learn it too.
This goes to show that even virtuoso guitarists still struggle and have to practice and take their time when learning something. Makes me feel better when I get frustrated. This song is hard af.
tux guitar is all you need. don't be ashamed. ITS FREE AND AWESOME
We are of the same mind! Free and awesome!
And "stabwound" is probably one of the easier songs off Epitaph. "Epitaph" or "Ignominious and Pale" and way more challenging.
I don't doubt that!
Yeah the stretches in Epitaph suck!!
Dean you are excellent
Loving these! Learn some more Petrucci :D that would be really cool, thoroughly enjoyed last one!
Will do! Thanks!
Glad to see , I am not the only earthworm to struggle with this.
Not by a long shot!
As a guitar player with little patience, this is very inspiring to see such a skilled musician struggle to learn a song and keep going.
I typically give up after 15 mins and just go through ultimate guitar trying to find different songs, learning little riffs here and there and rarely every sticking with a complete one.
Last song I learned was Black Winter Day. The intro took forever to learn, but finally got it. The rest is pretty much just power chords.
Tried to learn From Wisdom to Hate and got lost somewhere in the middle. I might revisit that one this weekend after watching your video.
The video process is part of the whole thing, doing a video forces me to stick to learning the song. Glad you find these useful!
This is basically my entire teenage years spent on guitar, minus laptops, internet ect :P i had a tapedeck and a metronome and sometimes a TAB if i was lucky.
When were you born?!? Hahaha, I've been using online guitar tabs since I was 13 and I'm 31 now.
Dean Lamb im 28 and only recently started down the usually incorrect world of online tabs. I used to for the longest time sit in front of a stereo and work out veil of maya Meshuggah after the burial and through the eyes of the dead by ear. Im not saying its better but it is definitely more satisfying not “cheating” but fuck me there were many times i wish i had them though closest id get if i was lucky was a play through from a bandmember or good cover on TH-cam. Still not a big fan of computers in general so as cool as i think axfx is idk if ill ever get one because not only do i have to understand the axfx learning curve i have to learn the software on the computer too. I am happy with my high gain tube heads but the convience of axfx is unparalleled
Nice work Dean
Thanks!
This guy looks like the dude from Binging with Babish.
Two hairy eggs.
makes me feel better that even he is struggling to learn it
the fact Muhammed plays and does vocals Is insane.
Good try Dean. Enjoyed that 🤘
Thanks!
Perhaps try to learn some First Fragment? Yes, maybe?
Maybe! Phil is a serious player.
@@DeanLamb saw them live and they were great but i'm looking forward to see you live! Still wating for a date in italy 🇮🇹
@@DeanLamb Equipoise !
I love TuxGuitar.
It's gotten WAY better since I last used it too, they took many features from GP and added them.
Diminished to B . Is the best song on the album and the most challenging. Everyone covers stab wound. Challenge yourself man . That solo is my favorite in deathmetal. It's long and expressive in its tone and phrases.
Diminished to B is actually "easy", i Find Seven, Only Ash Remains and Ignomius and Pale harder, and also Symbiotic in Theory
Love these videos dude I’m attempting to learn the sill born one at the moment
There is a guy on yt ( kevin heiderich ) who made a 20% faster version of stabwound. Thats just insane.
Yeah that dude is unreal.
I always see a guy with a huge arch spire logo in their car on my way to work
Hahahah sick!
It's crazy to see how many people forgot that necrophagist is extremely technical and (most) tech death bands now stay with those foundations, aside from those few bands that are creating original sounds.
Hi Dean, loving the content man! great job! Maybe you could try learning anything by hideous divinity next or some decpapitated winds of creations era stuff? Also see you in Bristol 3rd December!
Cya then!
Damnnn
This song is soooo hard...you kill that 1st part🤌🤌🤌💥
Really hoping you guys come back to the States with Beneath the Massacre. Maybe we'll hear a cover song or two on a future tour?
Cover? Nah
BTM in the US? Maybe...
Dean! Awesome to see some necro again, I learned most of that song at one point and it still kicks my ass lol also, would be cool to play some ps4 with ya sometime ;)
I'll do some more in the near future! Thanks for watching!
Man those are some wierd video artifacts. Is anyone else getting them?
I just got the bmpcc4k so this is the first video done on it, I still have some learning to do I'm sure :)
@@DeanLamb wow that ain't cheap, video quality looks great though. Good luck fixing the issues!
Dude, I love the shirt!
Thanks!
This kind of stuff is really inspirational. As a guy who has never mastered anything, I often assume people can just fly into these songs like they are nothing. I wonder how the writing process for Archspire is?
37:38 - too much metal to compute.
;)
End result was awesome -- and if you think bloodborne is hard wait until you try Sekiro
I'm halfway through hahahah
Demon's souls: am i a joke to you?
after Necrophagist, where else is there to go in guitar playing? i love that Dean does these videos, it shows that everyone starts off slowly and builds the speed up as they progress. so many people wonder how to learn difficult songs and when you say go slowly its usually met with contempt.
You should try some Warp Zone or Feeding the Abscess era Martyr
This, learning Perpetual Healing melted my brain. Some VERY unconventional playing there I'd say.
Mongrain is one of my all time favs.
Try Kissing the Shadows-Children of Bodom 🎸 Ending Solo
Thanks for watching! I'll check it out!
When death metal is approached with the same mindset as fine german engineering.... Some of these riffs feel like they came from the same mind that developed the Torx screw.
Edit: spelling, my fingers hurt
Attempt to learn jason richardson🔥🎸🙏🏻
Yeah... 😰
Did you here about how Mohammed most likely has the next Necrophagist album on some hard drive somewhere?! I guess he just doesnt care enought to release it...
As far as I've heard that isn't necessarily true. I think he was in the pre-production stage when they called it quits.
@@DeanLamb Sometimes i wonder if he realizes how many people he let down. Then again, he didnt have any actual obligation.
@@Blindashitmetalasfuck we all want another album, but I think he left an incredible legacy over two releases and I'm happy with that.
@@DeanLamb Very true. But just for laughs, imagine this scenario: Archspire teases a new album. A your or so passes. Still maintaining the new album is almost here. 2 years later. Everyone is patiently (Arguably) waiting. 2 more years. Nothing. 5 years later, nothing. Then a fan sees you at a show, and you tell him that youve had the album on a hard drive for almost a decade, and just didnt feel like finishing it. I cant help but think that Mohammed is the worlds most savage troll. Im not even upset, but i laughed harder then i ever have when i heard the story.
This is rad. You should do this on twitch next time if you haven't thought of it.
I have thought of it, but I'm pretty overwhelmed by twitch.
If you can handle this song then you can certainly handle twitch lol
How about the solo at about 1:27 in fall of logic by Jakub Zytecki?
Ill check it out!
I'd love to see the tabs at the same time of what you're trying to play
It was too much of a headache to edit together screen capture software and everything else. Simpler is better from my end.
The short pinches are so insanely hard to pull of in this one.
TUX GUITAR BOIS.
Yeeeee
51:50 reminds me the "Hysterical Laugh" of Walter Withe (S04E11) and is understandable... (By the way, good analogy between Necrophagist & Bloodborne)
what kind of strings do you use man. sounds amazing
Thanks! Ernie Ball 10-46 + .59 and a .74
Nice video. You should try Vektor or Meshuggah next.
I was considering Meshuggah actually!
@@DeanLamb I'm currently learning demiurge so if you could try that it would be awesome. But you'd probably have the entire song figured out in 20 minutes.
@@DeanLamb I think you're a bit beyond Meshuggah, if I'm honest. I can comfortably play a lot of Meshuggah, but wouldn't stand a chance at Archspire/Necro (I've tried a few tabs). Still love to see it though... :)
Zak Andrews you are 10000000000% correct in that statement sir! Very true.
Dean Lamb For Meshuggah you should try In Death Is Death or Dancers To A Discordant System imo!
You should try to learn some defeated sanity riffs, it'd be cool to see you try to piece together the intro to hideously disembodied or something like that.
Great band!
What picks do you prefer?
Dunlop Jazz 3 1.5mm :)
Is that made of tortex? Have you tried the prodigies made of delrin? Do you believe in pick “alloys?” 😊
I love tuxguitar, I use it to write everything and then import the tracks midi into my DAW sans guitar, it's great for a starting template for a song
Is that a good way to write drums? I am used to doing that. I still haven’t got my DAW setup so I haven’t seen how drums are made yet.
@@ErrorlVlacro I like it, it does add an extra step of separation, but it's also like having a rough draft of midi to import into the song before tracking/mixing. I still do a lot of tweaking with fills and velocities in the daw but if you like writing drums in your daw then you'd probably prefer that
Necrophægist
Hey dean if you didnt know usually you can use your Guitar Pro license on up to like 5 computers
Oh shit! I did NOT know that! Thanks hahaha
his playing is so clean, no unwanted feedback at all...how is that possible?
I'm playing through a POD HD unit at pretty low volumes, so yeah generally I have no feedback at home.
@@DeanLamb Oh nice. Would you recommend the pod as a lone amp?
Yeah the pod HD series is great!
Learn the whole song, man! Besides I suggest you the First Fragment too, or some Vitalism, or Shokran song. :D
No easy tasks you have given me! :)
@@DeanLamb We just believe that you can learn these masterpieces! 😀 I learn these ones too, so if I see as you can learn, that's inspirating and makes me hopefully: These are not IMPOSSIBLE!!! 😂
equipoise - waking divinity maybe?? it ruins my left hand and giving me pains and cramps://
You should do these live on TH-cam or Twitch!
I'll keep it in mind!
Try the solo from As God As by Hateform. Little known band, but they have a very impressive guitarist.
I'll take a listen!
