One of the best guitarists in metal right now ^
sir youre absolutely right
Says one of the best guitarists in metal right now.
And you're not so shabby either sir! LoL
Dean attempts to learn : This one ?
Nah, too easy for you... :)
HEY DAD!!!! :D
Brandon is a BEAST
You guys are just saying that because he wore your shirt lol /s
@@Mustafa-ou8qs You DO have ears son do you not ?
@@Sunedosa You DO understand sarcasm, do you not?
@@Mustafa-ou8qs Sarcasm in text without emotes does not fare well for the most part.
@@Sunedosa I agree. That's what the '/s' was there for.
The Black Dahlia Murder has aged like the finest of wines, I swear to god; every release is consistently phenomenal.
Relentless fun riffage. Love these guys
I dont think they’ve released anything better than Nocturnal tho
@@louisleon4419 everyone has their picks for sure; as much as they've kept on the same trajectory, every release is a unique in it's own right.
My tops would have to be Unhallowed, Miasma, Deflorate and Ritual. Funeral Thirst was my introduction to TBDM (and metal in general, really), so Unhallowed will always be close to my heart haha.
@@deathmetalanddoom Literally every single album was fucking amazing. There aren't many bands you can listen to that don't even have a bad song. They've managed to reinvent themselves but still keep the same vibe. Just slight tweaks to how they write riffs and drum patterns. Such a sick fucking band, especially through lineup changes.
I was just talking about this the other day. They never cease to be absolutely amazing at all times.
"How to feel bad about your guitar playing in 4 mintues!"
The finish on his guitar is so sick 🤘
R.I.P. Trevor Strnad
My son plays in a cpl bands in the Detroit area, and they practice in the same rental space that BDM does. When i am fortunate enough to hear them practice, let me tell you(#1) they are LOUD(,#2) they are TIGHT,(#3) they are super nice guys! Hearing Brandon warm up and just jamming is really cool too!
Psychonaut Pupildiallater wuuut. That’s hella cool
Killer!
That is so amazing!! I saw this band in Tulsa, OK and they were exactly as you described, loud and tight (like a tiger). What bands does your son play for? I'll give them a listen
Breath of fresh air. I can hear a lot of old school influences in him. 🤘🏼
right! i hear like some 80s shred influences and i frickn love it man. like george lynch meets deathmetal or somethn lol
Yeah I hear some Marty Friedman and some George Lynch, but my knowledge of metal is not super deep - who else do you think might have influenced him? He def stands out from other contemporary metal guys, whose names I don’t remember
cobrastriesand You can hear Zakk in his playing, and some Becker. And that paint job on his guitar is from the late 80’s Charvel and BC Rich.
That is some incredible pick hand dexterity.
One of the best modern metal guitarists.
My Daughter's name is Dahlia because of this band. TBDM4LIFE
wise man
That is a very very pretty name
Awesome 👌
Good idea. I’ll name my daughter Murder.
Lol same here! My daughter Dahlia is 9 months old today!
Wow...i like his guitar tone, that's sick 🤘
And that guitar color, it's match for this album themes...
Yeah I love the new crackle finishes from Jackson, especially this one. Kinda would prefer a little more balance between the green and black though.
So glad to be able to hear his playing clearly, RAW and nice.
Thks guitar World!
Sylver Death Lab right?! Finally a play through video with the instrument of focus mixed properly!
Such an underrated guitarist. He deserves way more recognition. Killer song 🤘🤘
It must be easy as hell to record him with how tight he is.
Lol one and done
A sentence you can also use in the gay porn industry
Dear Jackson, please make a signature series model of this guitar! A kelly with one humbucker and a reverse headstock, this is the dream!
Jackson can build anything in the custom shop, he's using a Seymour Duncan trem bucker and what looks like titanium parts for his Floyd setup. exceptionally great guitars for sure. One awesome thing about TH-cam is we can all learn from each other and great guitarists like this one🎸 cheers!
I spy Titanium saddles... anybody know what Seymour Duncan that is ?
@@JapaneseGuitarFanatic probably just a parallel axis trembucker right?
Also maybe a version with a neck pup.. Even though 1 seems to work for him lol
Hard Rock Relics its a krazy8 custom shop SD. Costs about 160 or so.
My absolute favorite player. How have I missed this for 48 hours? Amazing as always.
I've had the privilege of seeing Dahlia live and I was right in front of Brandon the entire set, I play guitar so I alway's make it a point to stand right in front of the guitarists to check out their playing...this dude is absolutely FLAWLESS...every solo that came up he executed to perfection, didn't miss a single note. He plays with ZERO tension in his hands so his playing just flows with so much ease that you would think he could play this stuff in his sleep. I am a HUGE fan of Ryan's but Brandon filled that void easily. I'm extremely hyped for the new album and I hope these guy's come back to central New York during this next album cycle.
Remmy 315 hell yea he seems like the kind of guy who plays on point too.
Yeah dude! Saw them on Friday! Absolute shredder and such a nice guy, had the privilege to chat to him afterwards also!
I have been waiting for this from day one,thank you tbdm
Such a savage and played so cleanly.
Ok. I've never heard of this band but those riffs are tasty!
Really? They've been around 20 years haha. That's cool though. They've never put out a bad album but my personal favorite is still their first album Unhallowed.
You should get them out. They have even better ones on past albums
Better late than never🤷♂️
Checkout arsis albums unwelcome and visitant. Brandon here is on both
Gotta check their albums out, youre in for a ride
As I get older, my taste in music has changed. I can't really listen to less technical and brutal death metal anymore without getting a little bored. However, TBDM and Cattle Decapitation are just so far ahead of the rest with their sound. Each element is clear and very member of the band is extremely talented that the production levels don't need to change much for the sound to be crisp as hell. TBDM especially are the best metal band in existence right now and I hope they come back to Japan again sometime in the future because I don't really want to fly to the states...but I will.
I seriously wish there were 1000 of these videos. I'm so glad Brandon is young so that we can watch him continue to create.
Heck yeah! so glad to see him getting some exposure from you guys! Hes top shelf in the metal guitar world!
I still remember when I started playing guitar, more than 15 years ago. I got my first computer, and I used to watch metallica live videos on youtube, enchanted by such magic. Many years later, I became a decent guitarist, I played thousand of hours, in dozen of bands and part of that magic disappeared. But now I watch Brandon playing this killer song, and I can feel these old sensations coming back, and I am enchanted again, after all those years. Magic does exist!
As far as I’m concerned, Brandon’s vibrato could get a male adult pregnant.
Laughed at this way more than I should have haha.
Lol
Are you one of those people who think trans should be able to use their preferred bathroom
you should on the top comment lol
🤣🤣
Green Crackle?!? How does Brandon have so many cool guitars??!! I'm glad they found such a great replacement for Ryan Knight, who is still my favorite of their lead players, but Brandon is equally tasty in his own way.
DeuceII Brandon is fantastic, but I miss the quirkiness of Ryan & his solos. Both are amazing players!
From what I've read/heard (?)..not too sure but I think Ryan Knight actually brought him in as a replacement for him..
How Brandon loves to use this sliding harmonics! He even finished his part in this composition with this technique! I still miss John Kempainen, but Brandon is pretty amazing too!
I don't even understand how he's doing that...
@@gyberic He just make a legato with alternating hammer-ons and pull-offs, and smoothly glides along the strings with a palm edge of his picking hand. Key word: Smoothly. Smoothly, touching a little. Very little. Just like at getting natural harmonics on the fretboard with a fretting hand.
John has my favorite solos ever.
@@jadebraddy2132 John's solos are real masterpieces! Compositions inside the compositions! They are magnificently deep, enchanting dark, impressively expressive and incredibly beautiful! Very few guitarists can compose solos like this. Brandon, unfortunately, also can't. His solos is just solos, they are good, but no more.
@@dexxpredwarior9033 I guess I need to practice hitting harmonics with my picking hand haha. I've seen guys like The Surrealist do it, but never sliding like this and I've never figured out how to do it either way
Seeing this dude play a solo live, you just have to respect him. Just so on the mark on everything, not even looking at his damn guitar. Its wild
TBDM doesn’t know how to release a bad album. My god. Them and Lamb of God are the two best metal bands out there. Never disappoints.
No other metal guitarist paints such a vivid picture of a doomy sewer-guttery feeling as this guy
i remember being thoroughly impressed with his cover of tornado of souls, i'm glad he ended up in an awesome band.
Raaaaaaazor sharp guitarist. So versatile and the best metal tones. Love this guy.
This dude is amazing!
I never even heard of this band before today, but that was some amazing guitar playing, like wow! Now I gotta go listen to their albums, that was awesome.
I have absolutely no idea how to play a guitar, but here I am watching this playthrough for the 10th time
their shit is tight as always
A gorgeous play through
I’ve already learned how to play it⚡️💪🏻🔥🖤 love this song
Freaking impressive!! A masterpiece song full of technique, elegance and aggression.
One of the most beautiful guitar players to watch play with some of the guitar world's sickest guitars, as well.
This guy's solo live are absolutely perfect. One of the best guitarrists Ive ever seen live, if not the best.
So true man. Saw them here in SA. Cut for cut it was perfect!!
one of my favorite guys to try to emulate right now, maybe its just me or does he sorta have like a tastful 80's shred vibe? I dig it
@@iLLuzion1st Yes definitely. Check out the video out on Loud wire. He digresses about his guitar influences
@@iLLuzion1st that's exactly what I feel. That 80s vibe that u no longer see or feel when you go to concerts nowadays.
What a tone. Love it
Watching his technique is always inspiring.
BDM are just so so SO SO good. Been a fan since 2009 and they've been consistent throughout a whole decade.
Since waaay before that, too!
I've been a fan since 2004, I remember buying Miasma at Target of all places lol. When Nocturnal came out it was a game changer, and then they one-upped themselves with Ritual.
Fuck I love these dudes.
Now this is some kind of refreshing altho i already heard it couple times...but amazingly beautiful..
Insanely good band with dope records, and are the coolest people I ever met and im seeing them on Saturday
Mygahd that crackle green finish is so potent its illuminating the screen like radioactive waste
This guy rules, the crackle finish is always appreciated by me lol
Seriously rad to see this band/showcased.
I'd sell my soul to be able to play like that
Just sell your free time :D
@@labounti I've been for the last 16 years. There is no hope for me
@@travistoole Do you follow a methodic and structured practice routine? I know lots of guys that play for well over a decade, but their "practice routine" is basically noodling around the instrument, which doesn't take you anywhere in music. Studying and practising in a quality manner is everything.
@@viniciusbertucci I try, I have books and stuff, but It doesnt seem to click with me. I can riff like crazy but solos elude me
@@travistoole Eventually you'll find an approach that works for you.
I used to have trouble sitting down and trying to write a lead that was technical and coherent because I basically treated it as an opportunity to show off and I was never happy with what I wrote. Once I was old enough to stop taking myself so seriously I decided to just improvise on recordings. That turned out to be the only way I learned. Now when I record the lead I play the rhythm back and record improvised leads over it repeatedly. As I go along I can re-use the bits I like and it slowly builds into something I'm happy with. If you mean you have difficulty learning leads or with nuances like bends, vibrato, etc. the improv method helped with that as well because I had to trust my hands and my own musicality and those skills naturally improved. If you're proficient enough to riff then you can solo. Whether you'll appreciate your riffs or your leads more is TBD. There's nothing wrong with riff worship.
bruh, super sick man. you play studio quality every time.... its insane
I think this guy is the adrenaline shot of shred/guitar prowess this band needed...
I'm happy that he got into a successful band. I love Arsis but him getting the gig for TBDM is awesome.
I NEED THAT GUITAR, sic playing as usual Brandon.
Literally the greatest guitarist alive today and no one came tell me different
agree
I can’t stop watching this
I’m feeling some real classic thrash vibes from these riffs, and it’s not just the Metal Blade shirt, or the crackle green Kelly, or the sliding harmonics.. Pretty much everything about the past four minutes has been great, just so great.
Same, getting strong Kreator vibes in particular
Great playing
Brandon can bring TBDM to new heights.
Whole album is great!
This song is amazing!
Nice！smooth and clean.
Outstanding
You can totally tell this guy is in love with hair metal, so many influences
Those crackle finishes are awesome! \m/
Verminous has slowly become my favorite BDM track… straight 🔥 three years later
More Brandon!
Such a great guitarist…he’s up there with Jeff Loomis as my current top two guitarists in the world of metal right now. Can’t wait to see him live at Irving Plaza 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Im gonna see him at irving plaza too! October 10th
Such a badass chorus riff. Huge fan of upbeat centric riffs. Very rhythmic.
RIFF PARTY 🥳🥳🥳🥳 . happy to see someone in metal finally PLAYING through a song and not MIMING thought it
this is FIRE!
Beautiful guitar.
That was bad ass!
So good, TOO good ✌🤘🤘
Besides his incredible tone and chops, his vibrato is WORLD CLASS
The best metal guitarists out there!
This guy is a great guitarist. The solos for Nightbringers and Widowmaker blew me away
Rest in Power Trevor. TBDM forever ! 🖤
Fucking amazing this is exactly what I needed
Yeah my hero brandon 😄👌
I how this album concept is green, included the guitar
Ok. would have liked 500 times alone if I could. So pumped for the album. Fuck yea!!!!
The Black Dahlia just are to bad ass for words. Brandon is just to bad ass for words
Definitely loving the new album so far, shit is badass.
Awesome
"...and it goes like this"...next thing you know, brandon "slaps" someone's face with his hard-hitting tone and precision! True masterclass!
Not only an awesome lead player, incredible rhythm too.
I can´t stop looking at that perfect hair
Hope that axe is over 18!! Sick shedding as always from Mr Ellis!!
Ah yes, guitar playthrough vids, because we all totally learned how to play this just from watching 🤣🤘
I’m not into this kind of music but holy crap everyone in the band has so much skill and Brandon is one of the best guitar players in modern metal.
Never Heard BDM and I like it!
Same here... Looking forward to them
