How the fuck did you get so good at tremolo picking...playing whole chords, switching between strings, switching tempos, all smooth as hell. Seen you guys live a couple times and it's like this the whole set, honestly a borderline athletic level of talent
@@taj334 well that’s not really the whole story, is it? While this style of playing is 100% characteristic of black metal, it’s not as though every black metal song or band plays this sort of all-out tremolo picking assault. Compare this to a play through of a Mayhem song and maybe you’ll see why so many people are impressed by the picking in this performance in particular
@@danielschiano2190 Yeah you are right, i was just having a bit of fun ;) I am trying to play this song as well and it takes a lot of practice. I would compare it playing Master of Puppets or Creeping Death. Those are songs that i used to play frequently, but if you dont practice as much you loose the ability to play it. Ontzieling is not technically impossible Tech-Death Song, but it takes a lot of practice. I respect wiegedood for combining the effort and sound quality.
The most disgusting thing about this video is the lead that comes in @ 2.50 that Levy plays that live and sings... the tremolo picking and left hand work is so fast it's mind boggling. I have got It down (sloppy) @ about 50% just have to keep playing it slow and tightening it up and I cannot fathom having to play that live and sing. Truly some the best right hand mechanics out there.
So you dont really seem to respond to comments actively, ill still ask: Currently attempting this but really struggling with the Stamina, even more impressive how much of it you do by wrist without much lower arm involvement. my question is if you boosted your stamina by using a specific type of pick and angle. Since i usually play more death and proggy stuff im mostly using small, thick picks and a relatively straight angle but already figured for this kind of style for 7 minutes using a sofer pick and more thrashy angle might make more sense
Been learning this recently, too. I use a fairly bendy, sharp pick, angled fairly aggressive with the edge facing the string and I rotate my forearm for the chord sections, I find you get more range of movement vs just using your wrist.
More play troughs please. Greatly appreciate being able to see this

It's called black metal

@@taj334 haha all good! I play just enough to recognize how hard it would be - hats off to you for trying, and good luck getting there!
i suck at guitar for 16 years and counting. i tried this. No way.
1:14 when the blast kicks in, best headbanging black metal moment ever imho
Thank you, this kind of vid is sooo good of you to do
thumb-middle finger pick?
Has anyone figured out how to play the riff that starts in 1:57? I try to play it as they do in the video but it doesnt sound quite like it
a bit late now but this only sounds right when played by both guitars. very good tabs of this songs are on songster btw

Yeeees playthrough of my favorite black metal song by my favorite black metal band PLUS a rad EGC
Super!! komt er ook nog een playtrough van svanesang?
FCKN AMAZING
that's MOMMA Wiegedood to you, Mario!
oh aub doe dit met Svanesang
What model is the bottom guitar? Headstock looks really cool. Seen the Russian Circles bassist with one like that too, no shiny fretboard though.
I believe it’s a Tele body with a EGC Bolt On neck. EGC makes bolt on necks to put on your own guitar
Headstock looks like Electric Guitar Company (EGC), not sure what model though
Telecaster body with either a Hot Tele bridge pup or a Quarter Pound pup with a EGC neck.

Hellyeah.

Hello @Wiegedood, is that telecaster a selfbuild ? Looks awesome ! Which Pickups are in it ? Greetings from Germany TH
Don't know about the body, but the neck looks like it's made by Electrical Guitar Company.
