  • Pathologic Technical Shit.

  • Awesome, Scott!

  • Isn't this just a guitar with 4 extra bass strings? xD

  • PENIS.

  • that's just really...... stupid.

  • gay

  • @ritualdefacto yes, you are

  • love the souless ginger self-proclamation!! thats funny! don't worry about the ignorant kids more worried about genre-image than the actual music (fuck off back to good charlotte).. you are fucking awesome.

  • Chuck Norris's Ukelele

  • This sucks because it has no emotions and isn't pleasing to my ears therefore I can't appreciate the technique displayed because soul and feeling = slow bluesy guitar bends. You cant' play fast and have feeling NO EMOSHUNZ

  • @JoshuaAlexanderful what a knob

    

  • every 7th person disliked this. too many sick minded bastards on Earth?

  • Is pathologic mental illness? lol

  • Fucking awesome!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • sounds like 80's computer noise

  • HA! I can play Come as you are´s intro with only 2 strings!!!

  • @zep68cd Actually, that riff is playable on a single string.

  • @MrGul Shit, and I thought I was the next E. Van Halen...

  • TABS?

  • U MAD BRO?

  • either hes shrunk of the Bass is on steriods lol

  • These core bands cannot growl. They just inhale & scream like fags, & when they try to growl they just cuff the mike, thats why I hate core. seriously need to take lessons from the old tymerz. Mikael Akerkdfert or the guy from Nile (Karl Sanders) im sure would be willing to help

  • technical yes but it sounds like trash i wouldnt jam this over pantera

  • Is this really neccessary?

  • SOUNDS LIKE SHIT=100. TECHNICAL SKILLS=1000 :-)

  • This here folks is the very real existence of purgartory: having to repeatedly play a penis shaped devil guitar in between breaks of wanking into a cup...for all eternity. Viel spaB!

  • on that weird part of yt again

  • wtf did i just see !

    

  • This dude got tired on 37 second...

  • I bet changing all the strings on that sucks balls. Sounds awesome though, man!

  • idk man.... I don't think so...

  • Pretty cool. Personally not a fan, but that thing requires quite some skill to play.

    And to anyone saying that this music has no soul, two words: Yngwee Malmsteen.

  • @jurnag12 Because everyone knows Malmsteen plays technical death metal.

  • Wow this is really numbing and boring. Mostly the same note value throughout the whole passage and spanned massive parts of the register in different scales so quixotically as to give nothing but perplexion. Nothing to feel, nothing to anticipate. ...Which is why most people who like this music probably just go back and forth between listening to your pointless melodical rambling, and then to the band's drummer's monotony -- regardless of your applied skillset at tapping and sweep-picking.

  • @zznarcolepsy No one *really* cares what you think.

    Viraemia is awesome.

  • That harp...... is missing a few strings.

  • FUK THE WAT

  • In the description: "And if you think that my music 'has no soul', it is not my fault, I am a ginger." I lol'd

  • hey guys...calling his bass a tree joke is REALLY getting old

  • What The Fuck Am I Looking At?

  • boring

    

  • Oh, look, I'm in the unnecessary instruments part of youtube again

  • Tosin Abasi plays this with one hand.

  • this is the sound track i use when i'm hammering raw steak to my walls.

  • how

  • I prefer this than Emmures one string bass

  • stupid

    

  • Nice tree.

  • now that you realised yourself you can go to paradise...

  • .......my eyes are bleeding just looking at that tank of an instrument. for the record, that is an expression of awe at how incredibly awesome this is. i thought a 7-string bass sounded mean...

  • It's really a sitar at this point.

  • Pretty soon - all metal will be 64th note double tapping on 24 string guitars. And It will be absolutely disgustingly awful.

  • holy shit i fucking know this song. i haven't heard it in years. the more you listen to it the better it gets actually.

  • 666 dislikes. How Symbolic \\m//

  • now THAT is a proper bass guitar! I am going to buy a 10 string guitar someday (or bigger who knows) but I would LOVE to play that bass, its fuckin rad. btw .. how low does that thing get to? :D

  • It's called a tree bass !!

  • "And if you think that my music 'has no soul', it is not my fault, I am a ginger." HA HA HA HA officially LAUGHED MY FUCKING ASS OFF

  • Wtf did I just witness..

  • @scottaplummer

    I love how smoothly you do your up-sweeps, mine are pretty rigid.

    I swear one day I'll be able to cover this fully

  • NO, THIS IS PATRICK!!!!!

  • That's all good, but will it blend?

  • OH YEAH !!! SCIENCE KEEPS SURPRISING US !!!

    WHO WOULD THINK THAT A ROBO-BASSIST WOULD BE CONSTRUCTED!!

  • What the fuck was that? My brain broke for 37 seconds.

  • maybe you should have just played guitar...youre pretty much already playing it like one

  • @jdouglas9494 youre damn rite lol

  • @jdouglas9494 I believe you're forgetting a fundamental difference: bass guitar and guitar sound different. It's akin to liking to play low notes on a flugelhorn and having someone react by saying "why don't you just play trombone?" The neck is different, the weight is different, the sound is different, the fine-tuning of the electronics are different... the similarity is that there are strings, hands, and wood involved in producing a sound.

  • that's some seriously insane shit

  • Comment removed

  • Hey man, I know that the band had some issues, but can I ask you if there's a way to buy your EP in physical form right now?

    I mean, you're amazing, I really want to support you ;)

  • yeah yeah but can you play smoke on the water!?!?!?

  • @mastodon1314 made my day.

  • @mastodon1314 hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­haha... you sir just made my day.... :D

  • @mastodon1314 see my vids & learn herbs like pine,coriander,cayenne etC :D

  • @mastodon1314 I laughed so much at you comment! XD

  • @mastodon1314

    Yeah yeah, but can you make an original comment?

  • @Fluffypopcicle yeah yeah but can you stop being a cunt

  • @mastodon1314

    Well sorry for being sick of seeing the same thing on the top comments board for ever stringed instrument video that is impressive.

  • Dude, thats not a guitar.

    its a fucking tree.

  • Alright. Why make music that's incredibly hard, but incredibly un-listenable?

  • dude gingers are awesome.

  • @CoreyRidesUnited yeah they are part of a unique alien genetic hybrid that is here to upgrade humanities dna

  • Чё происходит?????

  • I can't say enything else: WTF!!!!!!!!!

  • that's one bass i want

  • What the f@ck just happened?

  • there's no rhythm and no melody to this at all. i can appreciate the performance and how well he executes this, but musically it's not at all impressive. and, why a 10 string bass? after 5-6 strings, i'd just get a warr guitar or stick.

  • Well, you produced a flood of notes far beyonde just fast picking... honestly, you`re talented and worked hard for this, but is this deliric note-storm really what you call music you like to listen and maybe party to? Or does this fit more to where psychadelic rock bands once drove into whith all there weed?

  • I can play this with only my penis and my girlfriend's ass

  • Hey, I have this song on my iPod!

  • Where did you get the pickups for that??

  • nice skateboard

  • Tabs please? :P

  • you know what they say about people with big guitars 8--> hahaha sorry i couldn't resist

  • Good...but can he play "Smoke on the water"?

  • Fuck all , VIRAAAAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEMIIIIIIIIIIAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAa lml(-.-)lml

  • why the FUCK "pathologic" ?

  • Poor thumb :(

  • That guitar is disgusting, no offense to you thoe your awesome just not my kind of thing. I just think this string thing is going out of hand.

  • haters wanna hate, lovers wanna love, Viraemia doesn't want none of the above they want to piss on you (drip drip drop). Totally amazing dude, keep it up.

  • Too much. 8 strings is enough. Trying to compensate something? -.-

  • @MrDudeBoiMan This was written on a 6 string (as Scott is that BEAST) but plays it on a Ten as it makes the movements much more manageable

  • WHY AM I HERE??

  • Fun to watch yet im not sure if i can enjoy listening to this

  • What the hell is this? Sounds like music played backwards.

  • too simple...any beginner can play that!

  • awesome.

  • its beautiful:')

  • That's when yu spend more time playing an instrument than earing music...

  • Comment removed

  • Perfect for my yoga.. But seriously, this so called "music"

    is annoying.

  • Sorry, but this is what we real musicians call a "warm-up." That is without the horrible backing track and wrong notes.

  • @spencermzj I'm stoked that your level of condescension is matched only by your lack of support for your claim. I'm sure you freaking DOMINATE your local bars, though! And 7th grade guitar students! Livin' the dream, bro!

  • @jojoclown777 What makes jojoclown777's life so much better? From what I can tell, your a fucking losah!!

  • my wife and i danced to this song at our wedding

  • stil prefer my 4 string bass ;)

  • These basses are retarded, no digs on the bass player, I don't understand what the point of doing rakes and arpeggios on a bass is. The concept of a def unique style, with hi-pass freq is interesting but people don't get down to this stuff, I mean normal people

  • @kenich420 well if you think about it, guitarists are always complaining about how easy the bass is (whn we all know it isnt). if bassist can do this sorta shit then guitarist wil have nothin to say hahaha

  • @Cookieonbass

    Where I come from people dont get down to this, you'd never meet a girl or have any fun.

    I play bass and guitar and I personally think it should thump not sound like a record at 78 bpm, as a guitar player it's always sad when it tries to get emulated. The closest it comes is some older moog/keyboardists from the 70's. Bass should just sound like a bass it sounds bad as a guitar

  • @kenich420 Because the bass can only be used for one particular form of music and nothing should ever change. You make great arguments. For infanticide.

  • @jojoclown777 Your such a loser, I bet you swallow more than any of your friends.That is if you have any friends. Basically you have no life! I bet your one of those weird metal kids that talk about weird shit because it gives them a boner, when in reality decency will get you farther in life. If the best you can do is argue the point that things aren't allowed to different then fuck you. This BASS sounds fucking retarded!

  • @Cookieonbass i thought jaco pastorious put the hush on the guitar world

  • Theres a fine line between metal and overboard....... Who am i kidding? Its a darn thick line and you just crossed it

  • yeah but will it blend?

  • MOTHEROFGODTHATSTHEMOSTEPICGUI­TARIEVERSAWINMYFREAKINGLIFE.

    -cough-

    @justinbernal1

    *Bible [because I'm OCD]

    And the genre means nothing, there's plenty of Christian Death Metal bands out there.

    With Blood Comes Cleansing and Impending Doom are pretty good... neither of them have a FREAKING TEN-STRING BASS though.

  • @kingherold47

    No idea why it broke off like that...

  • Ironic He's playing ten strings like a harp to death metal and the bible says in Psalm 33:2 Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.

  • I would be interested to hear how the bass itself sounds without any music going on in the background.

  • Ok, before I get attacked I'll just say I agree with your last statement.

  • This is fucking retarded. I play the bass, and this is soooo stupid. Who the hell needs a 10 string bass? You can do everything on a 4 or a 5 string, or a 6 string. No need for a 10 string you are just gayer than aids.

  • @andrewg012 its called being experimental and open minded, music is all about evolving and changing and trying new things.

  • Man you guys deserve to be touring the world and making a living off of your music! It's a crime that you're not more recognized for your insane virtuosity!

  • Sorry man, I guess I am just really frustrated because I don't want to see another perfectly unique band like this get lost in the dust. I guess I just forgot that real people with real lives are the cogs that make this wretched beast of a sonic machine work. I understand and thank you for the good music. Peace.

  • @xSpArTiChRiSx Thanks. Peace!

  • when are you guys releasing the new album?

  • I get that this is impressive and innovative, the dude plays the fuck out of this thing in beast mode, etc. -- but did we get anything earth shatteringly new here?

    When I heard animals as leaders for the first time, I heard a musician do something really new and refreshing, and use an 8 string to its full capability. This is sort of more gimmicky than necessary.

    I guess I just feel that I could have gotten the same effect from listening to somebody sweeping to no avail on a 7 string.

  • Hey Scott. Record a new album already for fucks sake. Your Viraemia Myspace has been fucked for like 3 years. I can't even order any hoodies. I'm starting to think this band doesn't even exist anymore. And after allot of us have paid for your Ep and your shirts and nik-naks don't you think it would be nice if you at-least kept your fans updated, instead of promoting the living shit out of this video?

  • @xSpArTiChRiSx What promotion? We have had some setbacks that we don't want to make public and we are currently trying to fix the situation. We do this for fun, not for profit. If people happen to enjoy it enough to support it, then we can share it. We recorded this when we had enough of our own money to go to the studio and we are not as lucky as we once were. I hope we can fix our situation and get an album out and merch to who wants it. Thanks for still wanting to support us through this.

  • @scottaplummer Do a full play through of this song =D

  • how is that possible?!?!?!

  • OPTIMUS PRIME WANT BACK THAT OPTIMUS DICK

  • Is that a conklin guitar?

    

  • nice rpg, oh thats a bass :\

  • I think he likes playing the bass, but im not sure yet....

  • nice harp, dude. 

  • I came in under 37 seconds. New record.

  • that is fucking ridiculous. i will never go past an 8

  • This is retarded.

  • think about how long it would take to tune that thing lol

  • UPLOAD MORE.

  • Dude, could you upload a video just grooving with that bass to some Stevie Wonder tune?

  • look, its plank from ed edd n eddy!!

  • thats absolutely rediculous. well done sir.

  • You forgot a note.

  • That thing must be a bitch to re-string.....

  • omg big guitar

  • You gotta be sh&@tting me! How in the hell can your left hand move that fast! Killer

  • PUT SOME VIDEO WITH QUALITY MAN...

    THIS IS BULLSHIT !!!

  • @Metalcorable Seriously? Lame, dude...

  • LOVE THE DESCRIPTION

  • Comment removed

  • Amazing

  • is used to play with 10 strings,then i took an arrow to the knee

  • @TheOpethOfMastodon i was goin to write a mean reply, then i took an arrow to the knee

  • this sucks

  • There aren't enough letters for how fucking low that string is. On a musical stave you'd have do so many lines below the stave they'd end up in hell, then satan would hand you the set of strings and you will finally know, but you can't handle the power and they burn you for all eternity, we will never know the tuning of this hellstump of a guitar!

  • Nice tree trunk.
