@@jakemoresea7415 Well yea. Bands have a certain pattern that they use as their signature play style. A talented musician can figure what what scales they use and create something in their "sound" with ease. All he needs to do is know what the scale is

Yeah he perfectly had their sound. The only hard part is replicating the singer since his voice is pretty unique And he’s been through multiple throat surgeries.

100% real this was impressive. So accurate and really felt like one of their songs (though for obvious reasons not as polished) NOW. Do falling in reverse so I can see Ronnie react to it and perhaps take it as a personal challenge and make a new song! Honestly a7x should as well though. please.
Holy crap, I just came across your channel, I have no idea if you'll see this but I went to college with you back in 2006-2008. I was in the class below you, with Steve and was friends with Jamie. I still remember hanging out with you in the music room playing Metallica. Name's Craig, working as a Software Engineer now, but still playing and it's good to see you are too. I literally haven't seen you since. Might be playing again publicly soon, started singing, maybe we could catch up at some point. It's great to see you're still going :)
The muscly arms in the thumbnail is perfect. When I first got back into A7x in 2005 none of my friends liked them then and would make fun of the fact they were all in tank tops showing their arms and that's why I liked them haha. They all grew to love A7x eventually :D
Haha, I remember the permanently sleeveless state of them from like '05-08, people thought it was so poser-y. I was a teenage girl then though, so naturally I loved it.
As a fellow Briton, I can confirm that there is nothing more casual to us than studying a Scrabble board before any big event also Korn would make an interesting episode
You know I used to laugh at those bass player jokes, but now I've become a bass player. Not by choice though. I started a band with my friends and it ended up being 3 of us that played guitar, a drummer, and no bassist. So being the only one that actually owned a bass, I was nominated to play bass. The jokes are still funny, but now I feel them lol
Brilliant job mate! Thoroughly enjoyed that, the duck being at the door and then biting him had me XD also the nasally parts made me think of Dave Mustaine a bit tbh haha but I feel that that made it better somehow. Would love to see more of these speedruns in the near future. Much love from a fellow Brit 🇬🇧🤘
Damn - absolutely nailed this one. Even better with the Hollywood last second finish. As a huge A7X fan I have to say well done! If any of the guys ever get ill or injured on tour...just give Bradley Hall a call...
I'm not even joking but that was actually unbelievable. That was amazing! You get the usual laughs from us but to make something sound like that in 5 minutes, my god you're talented beyond words mate! Actually mouth open with how good that was 😂
Fun fact: don't know if Bradley knew about the "stallion duck", but if he didn't... This was no coincidence, but fate. KEEP RUNNING, STALLION DUCK. RIP THE REV.
I just stumbled across this video and miss read the title. I opened it and this video was very entertaining. Really good job !!!!. I am definitely subbing
Well, God damn! (no Avenged pun intended), that was so good for 5 minutes :O And you got the Syn's guitar style so well and Shadow's harmonies and vocal mannerisms so well :D I super enjoyed it. Definitely wish it were longer. Next one: Myrath? You haven't done oriental yet.
I didn't know you were ghost writing the new A7X album
It's the chromatics bro, the Gates signature style
Flat 5s
Ghostwrote, he finished the entire album in 63 minutes
hi nick
Well, this guy has some serious chops and anything is better than Hail to the King,
Synyster Gates seeing this: "Am I that predictable?"
Yes. Yes you are
You are, but that isn’t bad, like we all think David Gilmour will play something with lots of feeling, that is awesome
A little haha but he doesn't try to fix what ain't broke.
Yes, especially after City of Evil.

Spent my teenage years trying to reproduce A7X's sound with my mates and this bloke does it in 5 minutes and is spot on. Dayum
I mean it clearly was written beforehand but it’s still veeery impressive. Especially getting that drums recorded on a keyboards in 1 take.
@@DodInTheSky He didn't write it before hand, why do you think it's called a speedrun?

All joking aside, this does show how powerful a little music theory knowledge can be.

Some people are just an inspiration to begin playing an instrument
After watching this video, I have decided to stop playing the guitar
Agree 👍 jaja i start to learn French... XD
picking up the bass because you're inspired to use this as a jam track, I can relate
When he said "it was a duuuuuuuuuuuuuck" I felt it😔
