- UPDATE: I posted a studio cover of this song! • Dance Gavin Dance - So...
I've played an original song at every other talent show, so I decided to switch things up for my senior year and perform a cover! I listen to a ton of post hardcore bands like Dance Gavin Dance, Royal Coda, Dwellings, Eidola, and Space Weather, and I wanted to try something in that vein.
also, 3:32 was funny lol
Guitar: Ibanez GRG140
Tone: Archetype Mateus Asato
(Big thanks to Neural DSP sending me their Archetype Mateus Asato plugin!!! It sounds absolutely sick for DGD-style tones, as well as other styles :-D)

Thank you all so much for all the love and support on this one 🫶 I don't have time to respond to every comment but if you're reading this, I appreciate you for even so much as clicking on this video. You guys are the best 🤘
Edit: It sure is funny how many comments I'm getting about the members of this band or the length of my shorts. It's not worth complaining about either, people. It's just not.
Congratz boy :)
No you are 😘
Killed it man, good job!
Hopefully one day you have an audience that fully appreciates you my man! You did absolutely amazing
Beautiful finger work young blood 🤘🏾
Sorry bro, no one understands but us.
Yeeeeeh, Nice BRZ!
A mighty minority we are united in goosebumps - baby 🦢
They have no idea
No clue😊
Exactly what I was thinking 😂
so under appreciated
Obviously I’m biased but Will Swan literally created a genre with his guitar playing so anyone nailing it much less in a live setting with judges immediately gets my respect
😭 fr bro fr
*We Do...*
that's *aLL* that *MaTTeRs.*
Them: rock is dead
Lucas: hold my gym shorts
This comment is perfect 🤣
@@lucasdjents you’re killing it my guy, keep it up 🫰🙏
Yo sick job on this dude. You killed this 🤘🏻
CLAYTON B KING DISCOVERED ME?!?!?!?!?! 🥹🥹🥹
25% shorts
100% skill
Legend.
I-----
I now realize what this comment means. I have a 24 inch waist with a 40 inch inseam so it's really a no-win situation -- in pants, I get countless unwanted comments about how long my legs are, and in shorts, I apparently look like a goof 😅
omg the tone is spot on, u killed it
Your classmates didn’t even deserve this performance. Flawless bro
If the band saw this, they would be very happy and proud of this.
You’re just playing in front of the wrong crowd brother.
Reminds me of being in high school… I’m 32 now. Appreciate being so young and having the taste in music that so many of us older people have had when we were your age!
You killed it dude. I hope your parents are proud too. I sure would be. Keep it up!!!! Don’t ever stop playing!!!!
Oh and life flies bud. Enjoy it day for day. What I’d give to go back the good days.
Thank you so much Joseph. This is meaningful to me 😌🤘
Nice to see the younger generation still getting down to some Swancore.
You have made a lot of us old heads quite happy, it seems. Good job little bro
Are we the old heads now? I guess so lol
The fact nobody there appreciates how technical Wills guitar parts are is criminal. Good shit brother!
You migh not have been ready for that but your kids are gonna love it
Not sure what you mean by that... Should I add this to my growing list of weird ahhh comments? 🤔 Oh well, have a heart anyways.
@@lucasdjentsit’s a reference to the movie back to the future , not sure if it’s also a double entendre cuz well uk . Turn off the lights I’m watching back to the future pt1 and 2
Ahhh I see, thank you for clarifying! 🤘
I love to think that everyone in the room is absolutely blown away by the response this is getting on TH-cam! They had no idea they were witnessing an absolute legend
I always hated my school’s talent shows. I didn’t matter how talented you were, you won by being one of the popular kids. The audience decided who won. They’d yell for who they wanted to win. Whoever the crowd yelled the loudest over would win and it was always the popular kids. Don’t know why they didn’t just use actual judges.
That's pretty much the case at my school too. The judges this year were all 9th and 10th grade girls, so I lost to one of their friends who sang "In Summer" from the movie Frozen as a joke.
@@lucasdjents that’s crap man, but to be expected 😭 as long as you know that you did well and if you’re proud of yourself, that’s all that matters
Bro you ripped that
Dude this is so indistinguishable from Will Swan's guitar playing its so good. Also another Gen Z fan of this band and other simillar post-hardcore bands like Hail The Sun.
Bet he went around asking other people to be in the band for the song but no one else has the talent!! fkn smashed it!
He deserves a better audience
This is insane. Holy shit that’s so damn awesome, RESPECT
the kids are going to be okay
Jesus Christ kid, you killed it. Violently. Keep it up and someday some kid is gonna play one of your songs at their Talent Show.
This was one of the best guitar covers I’ve ever seen. I’ve heard Will play this worse live himself 😂
This means a lot to me because I tried to make this sound as indistinguishable from the original as I could! Thank you so muchhhh 🤘
If only they knew man. Making all the dgd fans proud with this one
Sickest school ever. Kids playing DGD? Magic the Gathering club?? Might not have hated school as much as I did.
I had to double take the ot magic on the side 😂
The ppl there didn't deserve this amazing performance! Amazing job bro!
If i was in that cafeteria, we'd be instant best friends lmao
I don’t like how their heads aren’t moving
There are no tears being shed
There’s no amusement in the room your obviously lighting up
Hey man, keep creating.
People like me need to see it.
It helps the mental seeing other musicians blooming.
Love ya pall!
I think once they heard Tilians voice they were just mesmerized lol
This is a tragedy - they probably didn’t truly appreciate what they got to witness. Well done! Thanks for sharing
This is a victory now, though. He uploaded and we all heard the call. I remember when we were young and nobody understood. Now we get to help them avoid that :)
Of all the iterations, yeah, you're the sickest dude!
Fighting cow! How could we forget about you!
Thr 3 chicks in the front row look absolutely appalled. 😂😂😂 good job tho bro. DGD riffs are difficult. Top 5 band for me. Nice job.
Somebody get this man a band.
Thank goodness they cheered. I was worried they wouldn’t recognize you killed that! Its not super approachable music, but I feel like anyone should be able to appreciate those tasty guitar licks
BRO YOU FUCKING KILLED IT GOODJOB DGD WOULD BE PROUD
I know for a fact you created at least one new DGD fan this day
I love how you're trying so hard not to go full-tilt metal performance 😂
Damn.. I can't even imagine playing Swan riffs. The dude is a god. Hell yeah.
Aint no way you lost this talent show. You're insane dude
Thank you so much 🤘🫶
dude i would have been losing my mind, amazing
absolutely fucking BASED, love me some dgd and artifical selection is one of if not my favorite album
Man you could have sent some DGD fans a message so they could have been there to hype this up!
Straight up baller.
For what is worth the dude crushed it. Elder emo approved!
Surprised the school let you play this song lol great job, my dude!
Half of listening to DGD is listening to Will Swan, and you KILLED it. Nice job!
By any reason this was recommended me. It is 3 a.m. and i am lying in my bed. In Novosibirsk Russia Siberia. After a long long night in garage under my vintage car. It was pleasure to listen to.
I play a little bit myself mostly Hendrix, Gilmore so i can imagine how hard you worked. Great performance to)
Absolutely fucking fire. They had no clue of the pure amazing chords you were about to rip. Great stuff
JESUS CHRIST. My man fuckin smashed this 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Swancore for the dub! You ripped that shit bro!
Id be losing my mind in the crowd. You did great, kid.
You killed the whole thing but it felt like the real deal at the 2:15 mark part.
dance gavin dance is god tier and you did them justice nice job dude !!! 10/10
Super glad this video was recently uploaded, hope you see this.
You killed it, what an excellent choice of a song to go and perform and you really brought that swancore loaded. I would’ve lost my shit had I been there
This is actually incredible wow
Nah this goes hard and we need to be the judges fr, you’re winning the final idc
Right in front of all the ladies. Well played sir
This is amazing work
I would fangirl so hard if someone played this when I was in school
For sure deserved a standing ovation. Keep it up dude!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dude…. Don’t listen to the silence of those judges. Keep it up little bros❤❤❤❤
way better than me at that age, go king
Absolutely incredible, dude. Sorry that you didn't get the reception you deserve. This was dope.
If you're not in a band, start looking. I expect you to be touring in 2 years.
the worst part of this is that most people probably wouldn't think that this is too difficult of a song unless they are guitar players, since it isn't as flashy as some songs with sweep picking and the such
Yeah when I learnt this I was surprised from the difficulty to. That outro is next level.
@@josephcarrington9686 just dgd in general (granted, I have small fingers)
Been trying to learn Deception by them… Swan is just so dynamic, he’ll jump from the lower frets to the last frets for such short parts but it sounds amazing 😁 my fav guitar player of all time
Very impressive performance. Not only nailed the time signatures, but the technical acumen on achieving identical tonal patterns is immense. Kudos to you, fine gentleman.
DGD in the talent show and Magic the gathering on the window there, why wasnt my high school this cool?
Brother you KILLED it!!!! Maybe the crowd didn't get it, but we do. DGD always stay united!!!
They don’t realize how awesome this is!
Give this man a medal. Choice performance man. Its evident you put alot of work into that. Hats off to you brother.
HOW, HOW COULD WE FORGET ABOUT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. All the respect here Will Swan would be impressed im sure
I'm 42, I've been playing for nearly 30 years. I can't do this. Really excellent job. Nice recovery when you computer stopped, too!
damn that’s wild. 30 years and you can’t play this? what can you play?
@@bootylooklikedissize I play with your mom. That's pretty fun.
One minute, lemme grab my popcorn 🍿
Nailed it man, sounded fantastic.
You're way ahead of your time, thank you for showing these kids what music is
Hail the to the new king of this cover. I think the blonde girl fell in love.
THIS IS SO SICK AHHHHH standing ovation from my kitchen in Baltimore, keep it up dude!
DGD is people 🤙💛💚♥️🍓
Wtff. You dialed the tone perfectly
This is insanely hard to do and you killed it! You're crazy talented!
yoo this is fire, you nailed it!🔥
Awesome job! DGD forever!! His classmates =wtf is this? The adults in charge=wtf is this? lol
My guy, this was sick as fuck. Keep up the awesome work.
Killed it. Nicely done
The spectators don't deserve you❤
In the beginning I thought the blonde girl was screaming along … she was chewing gum 😂 solid playing dude
Dude your tones are sick!! What a legend. Take the total lack of understanding from the people at your school with a grain of salt. You CRUSHED it, and there’s a crowd who loves this!!
I hope you had at least one person in the crowd losing it how amazing this is
Bro you crushed this, I was vibing the whole time 👊
you NAILED this gahd damn! Tone is perfect too!
Excellent recovery after your computer fell asleep. Great performance!
Dude.... THIS WAS INSANE!!! My jaw dropped once I saw u start, I'm no guitar player but it sounds hard as hell! Good stuff man!
I wish I was bold enough to have done that when I was still in school. It took me years to get over my stage fright. Keep this up and the next generation of kids will look up to you in no time!
sounded so perfect that i thought the song was doing most of the playing until the end. ROCK SOLID!
Amazing. DGD is not an easy cover, and their guitarists are amazing and complex. This is one of my favorite songs and you held your own.
I mean this in the most sincere way possible: you are an inspiration.
I haven’t picked up my guitars seriously in over 15 years but after watching this I’m really itching to get back into it again
This is the kind of comment that drives me to keep posting music.
Fucking SICK got chills bro
Amazing job man. You crushed it. Unrelated but I already miss Tilian. Lol
Great job! That crowd does not understand how good this really is
That's pure talent! 🔥
jesus christ that was clean!! so sick
