Carol of the Bells (Metal Rendition)

[hldguitarist]

Psh, I would have went the extra mile with the vfx and make it look like Im a nord in skyrim playing this >.<

[DarksideHalo]

The rendition is far too mediocre for the creepy presentation. Snowy trees… but he's ON the chair, his LEG is on the chair, he's ripping on the strings… too much for so little.

[OfficialSpire]

@DarksideHalo - Without the creepy presentation, the video would be nothing though! LOL.

[MrDmurray39]

eh

[ironrider64]

the only reasonable explanation is...he's magic...(or we're all high), whatever comes first...

[cleanandsnatch]

that dude can kill it.. but he looks so fucking creepy.. :(

[StewieSwan]

this is so awkward

[playmkr278]

Why is the stool not covered in snow? Why are you not covered in snow? Is it because your riffs are too hot for the snow?

[dariosok1]

DOUBLE SNOW , HELL YEAH !



[OfficialSpire]

@dariosok1 - Haha that's awesome. I had to try that out too.

[xXcrazyguitarist]

gotcha



[StinkyTaco]

dudes got more teeth than a piano...

[djgossen1]

what tuning are u in? lol

[walterallred]

Thumbs up if SuperCoolFunnyVideos sent you here!

[xXcrazyguitarist]

hes not plugged in

[jr464hc]

@xXcrazyguitarist Wireless sender on output on opposite side

[thegrouchboy]

@xXcrazyguitarist the audio is recorded first, and the video afterwards... just like in a music video

[LaggingKills]

I have the same guitar! \m/

[arcadegamer117]

He kinda creeps me out...

[Mattdaskater69]

bill gates before he was the founder of microsoft

[Stratplayer05]

That guitar is great (By that I mean I've got the same kind in the same color.)

[mrlandroverdiscovery]

nice earnie ball jp

[theerdinc555]

actually he's Stephan Hawking

[Guitarplayer3579]

im sorry but in the beginning you smile like a future pedophile.

[94Whizite]

how do you play 2:58 - 3:13.

[vegajahaziel]

Good job! Why aren't you wearing a jacket it's snowing?

[Bassilation]

He's not even plugged in, or hitting a pedal to change from clean to distorted. It's not live.

[mewnessbro]

@Bassilation And?

[BeTheAwakened]

I wish I could make those facial expressions when I hit pinch harmonics

[2pacthugzta]

man this suxx shit, is he retarded?

[Timrztko]

@2pacthugzta Dude 1:06 is when shit gets real.

[corywashere]

@2pacthugzta he isnt retarded just looks like it

[MadMacheart]

how'd u get into narnia?

[MrGzwx]

@MadMacheart through his secret door in his closet.

[bob68692]

omg, smeagol has a guitar :]

[isaazman123]

what ever happened to this guy? we want more!

[118042]

I'm surprised it took me over 6 months to realize his faces when he hits those pinch harmonics.....

[118042]

@118042 Steve Vai as a kid maybe?

[VintageVideoGamesTV]

Just as you thought he couldnt play, 1:07 mark he starts ripping ur ass apart, great tune dude

[ToRiskandKill]

Online dating video?

[Shit2223]

Fucken trolls complain about looks This isnt pop music its metal its ugly brutal and violent so stop bitching about looks and listen

[grouchysmurff]

I was gonna say it would be cooler if it was plugged in but you can obviously tell you recorded the song and know how to play it so it doesn't matter. This version is way more difficult than any I have seen.

[TheLOL0107]

i love it how the guitar doesn't even seem to be pluged in!!!!

[118042]

@TheLOL0107 Wireless...

[alucard20ful]

dude you rock

[shorttyler97]

that isnnt him



[CSMatherly]

this kid looks is creepy as shit. this isnt that great of a cover ayway.

[beingthewanted94]

wow this was played slow then speed up you can tell by the choppy movements this guy makes

[Hockey1Is1Life]

drop c tuning?

[mathiasidsoe]

best guitar ever made!

[Satariousblack]

nerd -.-"

[AmmonIsTheWhat]

@Satariousblack YOU FOO STFU!

[leoschanel]

august burns red is so much more metal then this it makes this look like a pussy instrumental

[G0dM0dH4x0rN1nj4]

@leoschanel hey ass enjoy that he made his own rendition, oh and this one DOESN'T sound like shit.

[leoschanel]

@G0dM0dH4x0rN1nj4 oh ithat so hey dip shit i showed this 2 five people they can only get to 34 secs then they ask me to turn it off so you fucking stupind you little cunt i hope you that cock out your ass you but hurt little fag hahahahahahaha m fucking your mom right so enjoy that i will leave you some allounce money on the table you little cunt bitch tit fucker

[calves92]

@leoschanel Dude, don't be a dick. I love August Burns Red as much as the next guy, but this is seriously an awesome rendition too. If neither you nor your friends can see that then maybe you should just go and listen to Lady Gaga because metal obviously isn't for you.

[isaazman123]

@leoschanel

yaaaaaa they also got 3 guitarists in that song VS this guy so i think he is a litttle more badass

[leoschanel]

@isaazman123 they have 2 you dumb fuck and 1 bassist get your shit right

[isaazman123]

@leoschanel

ok they still got this guy doing the job of 3 other guy's in his basement sitting on a fuckin stool in front of a green screen. this guy is badass because everything you see and hear in this video was made by him and he doesn't need your approval

[leoschanel]

@isaazman123 i love nerds like you lol im stating a opinion i dont give a fuck if the mother fucking president aprroved him i like the august burns red one way better then this

thats why there professionals if he was better he would have benn the pro

hints the world approves ABR

[isaazman123]

@leoschanel

first, i like ABR. i've got constellations on my ipod

second, this guy put in way more effort into his version of carol of the bells i mean he just came up with like 90% of this shit while ABR's carol of the bells sounds A LOT like the trans siberian orchestra's carol of the bells

third, don't call me a nerd just because i can tell there is a green screen behind him. sorry to burst your bubble but he's not in fuckin Narnia lol

[leoschanel]

@isaazman123 im calling you a nerf for trying to pick a fight with me over the internet for a opinion ya dumb fuck clearly a green screen

IDC A7X FOR LIFE foREVer

[o8MetalHead8o]

fuck you fuckers, this is metal as fuck...AS FUCK!

[fluffyteddy21]

@Mani231290

Wow that was such a good comeback. I don't think I will ever recover. I'm gonna go cry myself to sleep now

[SeekOutDeath]

ABR's is definitely better than this fag's cover

[AC1DST0RM]

@SeekOutDeath

Love when people think ABR are metal, fuck off child. Go listen to your deathcore you pansie.

[SeekOutDeath]

@AC1DST0RM wtf? ABR is metal... lmao good job, and yea i listen to deathcore... and deathmetal and melodeath metal, and metalcore and all that. your point?

[AC1DST0RM]

@SeekOutDeath

Eh ABR are metal, right. Why come on a metal video when you blatantly don't know what metal is kiddo?

[fluffyteddy21]

Anyone with glasses should never let their hair grow long. It looks so fuckin retarded. ANY guy with long hair looks fuckin retarded

[Mani231290]

@fluffyteddy21 Hitler wants to give you a cuddle. He loves you. Aww, bestest fwends!

[ddogbros]

who did the drum part?

[AC1DST0RM]

@TheInsanityexpert

>Implying metal has screaming, go listen to A Day to Remember kid. I'll listen to some real metal bands like Death, Iron Maiden and so on. Also it's blatantly obvious how mature you are since you apparently "pwned" me, pathetic.

[TroublesBackk]

whoa! arent you cold?!

[ddogbros]

@TroublesBackk haha

[coreythinkspierules]

@TroublesBackk hahahahaha lol

[LOcarolinekVE]

metal is not screamo you dumbass

[yyekcim]

Definitely the best version of Carol of the bells on youtube!

[pftlogkm]

@TheInsanityexpert

You sure sound like an expert on metal. Lawl.

[AC1DST0RM]

@TheInsanityexpert

No, I suggest you grow up and start learning to have taste in music.

[bigbloodsucker]

PLEEEEAASSSSEEEE TABS!!!!

[TheUnlifeExile]

i love how its a snowy background and hes wearing a tshirt. ironcy

[ARC3093]

strait to favorites...

[metallicamike]

I'm going to watch this every Christmas there;s still a YouTube to watch it on.

[ToboeOkamiKiba]

how can I get this on mp3? my ipod desires it!

[mrjoemoney]

This is what happens to the elf who makes all the heavy metal toys for all you little rockers out there.

[iN3CROo]

goofy motherfucker

[Ba55taztic]

it's gonna be a norwegan death metal type o' christmas..



[guitarpro3232]

u look like a fagot but ur good

[SharkaZz]

you might wanna grow sum muscles, other than that, GREAT composition!! :)

[pftlogkm]

@SharkaZz He's too busy shredding. duh. :)

[mercurygirl67]

this guy is like the new super too young love of my life<3 lovely... truly.Thanks its like a sexy musical gift to everyone<3

[waitandbleed1464]

you cant compare this to abr's version dumbfucks.....theres diffrent styles.....this one in MY opinion is better...sooo gooo eat massive chode

[Sonnydrummer]

umm this is great and all but one second he is sitting another second he is standing

[ferociouspokemachine]

@Sonnydrummer No, that's just your perception. He's just nicely sitting there dude.

[cfishernb]

I'd have to say I Declare War's version is much better..

[Pyroth92]

I don't dislike the ABR one, but I have to agree this one is more creative and imo sounds better.

[demonmprint666]

tech us plz lol i try it with august burns red and its not as cool as this

[Darkkngiht610]

nasty, thats all i can say

[topixfocus]

Insane! Starting at 2:55, those faces during the harmonics was classic. I think it's a rule that guitarists have to do "crazy face" during harmonics. Loved it!

[Mayheneverbforgotten]

This is crazy man!! Keep rockin!! oh and Merry Christmas man!

[x0955863233]

keep it up man hahahahahhaha

[JustWantingAnap]

INSANITY!!!! rock on and Merry Christmas (:

<33

[SuperAfda]

This skinny little runt can wail.

[TheRand0mDude1]

@SuperAfda are you fat, i guessing?

[VikingsArise]

Insane, I'd love to know how you play that, I love it, I can play ABR's version but fuck that who beat their ass, i like the changes in sounds the beautfiul harmony, Reminds me of my fav guitarist nasty. Very impressive

[TheShatteredwindows]

DUDE.....that was insane. I loved the biginning,but the whole switching from sitting and standing got a little annoying. What kind of hummbuckers do you have? And what kind of amp was that. But all in all that was amazing, bravo.

Rock on yo!

Surge

P.S. get a haircut.....

[JayseWeaver]

I can agree with some that most of this isn't "metal" but it's still damn impressive, and for those bashing the guy for how he looks, you're just jealous you can't play as well.

[steelerzfan4life]

this guy looks homo

[Darazi97]

@steelerzfan4life if you havent noticed, most metal guitarists look like that, no matter how awesome like this guy

[modymody2020]

Epic performance.....the back ground is gay

[DarkLeprechaun12]

ok this dude looked like someone outta Lord of the Rings but he is WAY too awesome to be part of it. that was just AMAZING man...good job and Merry Christmas everyone

[MrFluffay]

john petrucci signature (L) Ill now listen to this

[blueice20]

[The1234doe]

One word: EPIC!

[GEBanEGB]

Fucking Awesome; opt for a subtitle

[steveisking1234]

DUDE! THATS F***IN' EPIC!!!!!!!!!

[vice1984]

why does he change position every different shot?

[Paintedfishboy]

@vice1984 Cause he's more badass than you.

[mr69wrong]

Okay wtf. If any of you think this guy is truly playing you really need to put down the pipe and step away from the crack.

[jongmagee]

@mr69wrong lemme guess..

you think this is FAKE....???

[omgwtfwtfrly]

August burns red can suck a dick, this is elite.

[TooManyFreckles]

shredtastic. way better than august burns red

[jimikimball]

just because you played it on an electric guitar does not means it's metal, but then i heard 1:06 .....nvm.

[hevghirl]

Love the fingers.

[ThatLadyMai]

Could've used a random explosion of fire around 1:07

[PreacherNotAvailable]

awesome rendition. I'd like it even more if you didn't appear on the video :P

[mjandrade01]

Thats kickass for a giant nerd!

[crotchrotcadaver]

Dude this is sooo bad ass.. Just what I was looking for this holiday season.

[crotchrotcadaver]

Dude this is sooo bad ass.. Just what I was looking for this holiday season.

[abbatoir1b]

[tazz182]

[Vexus666]

Probably the best cover on youtube. You're good, that's for sure. Just not quite my style. Kinda waiting for another George Lynch styled guitarist to pop up if you catch my drift. :D

[ilovesabian1n1]

[ClanOfTheFanboys]

[warshipsatan1]

the amount of hatred i have for people who think the august burns red version is better than this... i hope a space gorilla comes out of the epic vortex this gentleman just created in the universe, rapes your assholes, and gives you space AIDS.

[metaldrummer9000]
