almost got the whole song down. still learning the solo. 2 days practicing 5:34-5:38. i come here daily to get inspiration hoping one day ill be as good as swanthewhitepig.
One of their best song they've ever written. Sounds awesome played live. It's a absolute classic in my opinion. Uping Metallica wrote so well. Welcome Home (Sanitarium) is another example of pure intelligence of James, Lars, Cliff and Kirk. Awesome band xxxxxx
@Bonzo It's not like they decided to go mainstream, the black album was just well received D: Then again, I believe that mainstream doesn't determine quality that much
Bonzo I wouldn’t say they went mainstream, just tried to switch to things up a little bit which evidently didn’t work to plan lol, still my fav band though🤷🏼♂️
***** I tried playing YEARS ago when I was like 9 or 10 way before I was into heavy metal. But now-a-days, I am too addicted to video games and I got a busy job at Walmart. Got no time to play the lovely instrument. And I know this is an underrated opinion but, I'd rather play rhythm than lead,
Life it seems to fade away Drifting further everyday Getting lost within myself Nothing matters no one else I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me Need the end to set me free Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me Deathly loss this can't be real Cannot stand this hell I feel Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness taking dawn I was me but now, he's gone No one but me can save myself, but its too late Now I can't think, think why I should even try Yesterday seems as though it never existed Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye Goodbye ❤️
I am an amateur guitar player... no teacher... just tabs.. I was unhappy with myself and gave up a few years ago. This flawless cover of my favorite Metallica song just rekindled my passion about guitar playing. Thank you and kudos!!!
Really shows how timeless the songs the Metallica crew wrote. The more memorable a piece of music the easier it is to learn, at least for me. I hadn’t learned this solo nor referenced the song for quite awhile and was able to look at the tab and it all came back to me.
Metallica is the reason I started playing guitar. I got to see Metallica 2 days ago, it was my second time seeing them and it was the best night of my life. 🤘
5:35 playing this section with bending is crazy hard and your way to play is genius i will totally try that way. sounds way more cleaner and looks kinda easier to do
I watched this video almost a decade ago wanting to play like this talented man. Now I can't even play the solos I used to, years that I don't learn a new solo I feel stuck but the feeling is still there
@@mukhrizfadzil1464 The acoustic guitar on the original song is really mysterious because it doesn’t sound like a 6 string or a 12 string guitar. It has so much clarity and attack. How they mixed the guitars is a mystery to me
I recently decided to start playing guitar again after 10 years. i wanted to learn fade to black. I have been messing around for a few months following some tutorials and then saw this cover. Through my guitar back in the closet. 20/10, bravo.
I really don't care what people say about Kirk. he never claims himself to be one of the best. and I like many of his solos in their first 4 albums. fade in black is definitely one of them. and you nail it here mate. good job :)
Peter Bodzak Also, from Hell Awaits: hcudsmxkldjdddrofhfdosmaaaahhhh. Just kidding, I love the song but to be honest, the lyrics on that song were sung so fast that at some points that's what I heard.
Bro you’ve inspired me to go out and buy a guitar and start learning. The best part is my guitar teacher knows I love metal so she assigned this song for me to start learning. It doesn’t sound even remotely good right now but I’m working on it!
Please guys, can someone explain me the technique to play with both a pick and the finger ? I mean like the acoustic part of fade to black where you have to use two or three fingers ( 1:23 )
I don't think it's about technique. Actually you have to remember well which string you should play with your finger, and which with your pick and while you hold the pick with your index and middle finger you play one string ( e.g. 6th one-that's for the song), you play the other string with the ring finger :) I think there is no technique here...it's easy :)
I learnt this song from a mix of Carl Brown and James hetfield ofc. For some reason Carl adds an extra step to the muting in the main riff. And I’ve seen people play completely different power chords. How u play it is how James plays it and is ofc how it should be played! Dope vid man 🔥❤️
I'm dead serious. This cover alone has inspired me to pick up my guitar after not playing it for 5 years. Thank you.
Practice!!!
xMrPAINT23x I pick mine up everday and nothing else matters but getting good
Jaime Salazar ahh I seen what you did there, very clever
how u doin now? still playing?
Jens9807 who?
I would hold this guy captive just to make him play songs.
not sure if compliment or threat to kidnap e_e
+Zephyr neither.
kinda like both
This is one of the best songs of all time
Make sure you give him him some food, water and a guitar

Look behind him. There’s a clock that looks like it’s melting off the shelf it’s on

Flawless cover. That song and the solo is the reason why i started to learn playing guitar.

I love it. Nobody really likes to play the outro correctly but this definitely hits it spot on.
Pepper Ludemann not even kirk. I don't think he has ever played this note for note since recording it
JARED MATIJEVICH he did once at cliffs funeral
@@emperorpalpatine1574 A bit late but do you think you have a link to that?
Rate my outtro on my cover!!!
is it just me or is the opening lick almost as good as the solo?
Yea but the whole song is focking amazing
Mike Tython you're not mike Tython you dumb bitch
@MindFull hey you're not mindfull
Yeah its just you
@@bloop9966 hey you're not the Master of Bait
Who tf is Master of Bait?
Finally someone that plays the clean riff how it's supposed to be played. I'm proud of you. That tone is also so perfect in in it's own way
That build up in the last solo just never gets old, Metallica is definitely top 5 all time
almost got the whole song down. still learning the solo. 2 days practicing 5:34-5:38. i come here daily to get inspiration hoping one day ill be as good as swanthewhitepig.
did you learn it yet? i'm trying but shit's hard holy shit i can't get it to sound good
I only have an acoustic. Getting it to sound right is very challenging!
@@mathewnunley8433 Respect
It may last only 4 seconds but it's hard af
Bro can you play it now?

Fucking beautiful, you're inspiring me to go back and play my guitar.

Maverick McFarlane I encourage you to go to your guitar and play it every now and then
Fade to black was how I started listening to metal. Will always have a special place in my heart.
Life it seems to fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly loss this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now, he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but its too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say
goodbye
Goodbye
❤️
What an amazing solo this song has. I mean this whole song is a complete masterpiece.
I like how he switched between Kirk and James’ parts throughout the song
I do both in my cover 😉
@@theriffroomnigger
Wow. That solo at the end is life changing. You went crazy.
I am an amateur guitar player... no teacher... just tabs.. I was unhappy with myself and gave up a few years ago. This flawless cover of my favorite Metallica song just rekindled my passion about guitar playing. Thank you and kudos!!!
Never give up just think what you could be now
1:01 the sound of the guitar matches the song and makes it so much better. That part honestly was so satisfying
Really like your tones, especially the distortion and lead. wish my cover had those tones lol
GarySandStorm i like ur cover dude :)
Self advertisement 👀
RIOT V3NZE lol fr
Nice Indirect Self Advertising dude. ;)
Solo is magestic, vocals is my soul trying to break out free, guitar riffs is passion and structure in one

Metallic really captured something in this song. Very cool cover. Also love that guitar.
Metallica is the reason I started playing guitar. I got to see Metallica 2 days ago, it was my second time seeing them and it was the best night of my life. 🤘
Your tone & vibrato is dead nuts!
9 years later, still one of the cleanest solo cover out there 🤌🏼 almost a carbon copy of the original outro 👏🏼
Amazing cover of the greatest song ever written. You should be proud.
Dude that was unbelievable. I am so stoked i grabbed my guitar after watching this. One of the best songs ever
Please do "The day that never comes"
Man I miss 80s Metallica.
5:35 playing this section with bending is crazy hard and your way to play is genius i will totally try that way. sounds way more cleaner and looks kinda easier to do
Perfect timing, perfect playing, perfect sound...
There is only one explanation for how perfect this is. It's obviously Kirk Hammet in disguise. I'm crying it's soo beautiful.
I watched this video almost a decade ago wanting to play like this talented man. Now I can't even play the solos I used to, years that I don't learn a new solo
I feel stuck but the feeling is still there
Flawless cover even after 3 years
Who else loves the steel stringed acoustic part?
Me!
steel strings are life, dude :) 🤘
Impossible to recreate the sound of that acoustic guitar apparently
@@ali965 why ?

You are so insanely on point on each and every note on this cover JESUS CHROIST
Major goose bumps. If I could give 5,000 star, I would. Very very nice.
Dude at this point I'm like...willing to pay for more of these. Dat sweet ass quality sound.

Just love that solo. Amazing cover bro, spot on!!!!!
Metallica, megadeth, pantera, and lots more were the inspirations of me playing guitar now
Bro, clap it up for the time and dedication this man put in to play that flawlessly. Wow! 👏
4:23 - 4:37 was by far my favorite. Just the tuning difference to what I’m used to sounded BEAUTIFUL.
damn. that solo gives me goosebumps;. mesmerizing.
Greatest song of all time in my opinion and you nailed it bro
6:10 on... absolutely amazing.
Incredible cover
I love that solo, I should definetively try to learn this song
Of all the cover guitarists on youtube, this guy makes playing guitar look easy the most.. keep it up dude

Pretty flawless on that last guitar solo. Good job sir. That's my favorite kirk hammett solo. Nice guitar too btw
just so crazy impressive, unbelievable solo. best of all times
Really epic and flawless cover, man! Your right hand is absolute perfect 👌🏼
Perfect job Man !!! I congratulate you.
This is some bad-ass guitar playing =)
My God, holy mother, even the clock melted in the background from his game and pressure. Bravo dude!
You are Mr cool.
“This is beautiful, I’ve stared at this for 5 hours”😂
That's a lot of bong hits : )
One of the best covers I heard for this song
epic bro! great job
yes, so epic
That fucking solo at the end is something not normal, at every time i listen to it i get tears in my eyes, it s like the first time i listen ton it
