DVD 002 Tranquil Solo Close-Up

[drjakim]

what arpeggio is that he does after the tapping? i can't tell what it is

[Jackson28383]

Such a beautiful piece played brilliantly. Kris Norris is definitely one of my top 5 guitarists.

[WarriorArrow]

Nice. I'm getting ready to check if you have a tutorial.

If there's not, I hope there will be one soon.8{)

[punkjake]

@swiminon Yep!

[heegohordavio]

That's fucking sick. I came.

[sweet80smovie]

sick cover! I cant wait to get this solo down. one of my favs of there old album.

That bend at :32 is pornoriffic with that pounding drum beat. uggh!

[djalibee]

@sweet80smovie um dude, thats not a cover... its actually kris norris xD it is sick though

[Machetto07]

Красавец аще!!!!)

[Psiho007]

my favourite DH song SOLO ^^

[InVein69]

Anterior's "The Silent Divide" Solo sound very similar...

Favourite DH Part ever :) love it

[akuma862005]

yeah there are some parts of the solo in silent divide that sound similar but they are playing in the same key so that would make sense that the scale of the solo would be the same. One of my favorite DH solos ever along with Sound the Surrender and tunguska.

[EtherealSunrise]

he's playing over a backing track that's dubbed with probably more than 5 layers of guitar tracks. Of course it's not going to sound like that when and he's probably just jamming on a 100 watt amp to show us how to play it and is not really concerned about the overall tone.

[dvaifilmsdotcom]

i saw it live in 06 wakestock

gave me new respect for the band, but now there is no more norris. f that

[P5ych00]

dude, did u give me one star on my cover of this? if so... why? :(

[drlaza]

nah i dont think so, many others got that already, 37 bucks for both

[drlaza]

kris are you there? when are my dvds arriving? i live in hungary and those havent arrived yet, i purchased em on 23th of march 09 through your site and paypal :( pls answer, emailing doesnt work

[Daggyxx]

you've got scammed;)

[drlaza]

kinda, lol ^^

[runelore]

there was some issues with shipping due to the flooding here in my town im in the process of figuring out who got their dvds and who didnt and sending out replacements if you can be patient I'll get em to you promise!

[drlaza]

thank you very much man, a bit late but glad that you answered at last. cheers

[drlaza]

oh and if you have the spare time please check out my video i made for your honour, trying to cover some of your solos. poor quality but i keep practising

[illucid1982]

Ahhh... The everlasting tone war... His tone is great... No, it;s shit... Blah Blah... Plug your fucking amp output into the mic input on your computer, grab both of them and jump in the bathtub.

[Juneaucl]

you are a inspiration for a lot of us!!,

[pantz24]

lol dumbarses, this is darkest hour ...

and his sound is SHIT.

[UntamedWalrus]

what do you mean by sound? if your talking about his guitar tone...i always thought he had one of the warmest tube sounds in all of metal. i envy kris norris' guitar tone and this sounds close to it

[tehsimo]

awesome song!

[x12212012x]

lol too much controversy... whatever i think it sounds badass, and i have to learn it now.

u rock kris,

ur a good songwriter

[Minihuse]

Yeah i agree with the guy below, i dont think they jacked it, but as its in the same key with the same chords, it sounds almost identical.

Actually no, now im lsitening to it more... they completely stole it!

[JonnyZywiciel]

he missed the squeal!

well the rest of it is beautiful so who cares.

[Brangoth4]

One would hope.

Just learn your damned sources.

[Thriced2286]

it sounds very similar, even the last little solo at the end...but i dont think they ripped it

[playhaas]

hmm, i've ordered the dvd too a month ago and it has also not arrived yet!! and the email adress for questions about the order doesn't work!!!

[rgmike]

good ,but tune your guitar!

[adventflux]

I'm sure he'd know if he needed to tune his guitar up or not. He did write the song for fuck's sake.

[onefatangrypenut]

runelore IS kris.

[coheedcambriason]

dude i ordered this fucking DVD like a month and a half ago, still hasnt come

[frost4200]

hell yea i could finsh this song up now....

[tablesaltcd]

Good at tapping?

Would have never thought.

[P5ych00]

oh lol, who knows, I use the boss Ml-2 Metal Core distortion, it's a fucken amazing purchase if u need beefier distortion.

[pinkfluffyhandcuffs]

oh shit now i know how hes doing the tapping so goodits on the d string which makes it so much easier to tap

[P5ych00]

what's so hard about tapping on the g? which in the case is the f?

[pinkfluffyhandcuffs]

Thickness on that string is too small just easier on the d (c) string in my opinion anyway

[P5ych00]

eh, i find it's harder, doesn't sound as great, but he does it cause it's easier to get to that sweep on the twelth fret

[P5ych00]

distortion? lol

[shredder27]

maybe he just has light strings? coz it doesnt sound like a lot of gain.

[Nouta90]

darkest hour.

[metalman1112]

Kris Norris takes the technique of Petrucci and applies it to make great metal songs \m/

[ianderdrab]

this is the type of shit that inspires me to play guitar

[NaotoATG]

Try watching.

[eclctiktty]

Kris Norris is genius.

[kidwithguitar]

that fast part at like 26 seconds just inspires me cause its so fast and so damn clean, it makes me wanna try n do tht lol

[kidwithguitar]

whos this by? i really like this song lol

[unholyking]

song is tranquil by darkest hour

[Minihuse]

Na WIth ESP You can defo feel the differance from LTD brandonnickel

[Apocolyps911]

u guys r so fuckin gay. this guys awsome. so stfu

[EvilBeavil]

fucking sick!! love the tapping

[Minihuse]

Na, its not an MH 1000 Cause the MH1000 Is fitted with Seymour Duncans,

i think he is using an MH or an M, cause the have EMG'S. That kind of body, and he isnt using a floyd rose so,

[Flyingporkchops]

im way better at guitar. check my song vids

[Demonstar666]

better at guitar my ass, kris could kick your ass in a fight, AND at playing guitar. I have a 13 year old cousin who can play better than you, you barely hit more then one string, so stfu.

[Flyingporkchops]

amazingg

[tablesaltcd]

man do you have some cool pinches.

im thinking the secret to them is alot of vibrato and bendyness.

cause i think i nearly got the sound of the one in convalescence.

but yeah that is an amazing solo.

[slayerrulesyo]

yeah dude if you bend them they sound like even better

[htdrox07]

u guys do realize that this IS Kris norris playing right? lol

[sirstickykey]

Yeah....its funny looking at all the posts and commenting how well he did it...

[NikoBustos]

damn that was good

[SonicBrewtality]

Amazing solo! Nice work.

[eclctiktty]

SO FUCKING AMAZING

[kylegamber9445]

[fatalscars]

[chrisjohansson]

[CattleDecap666]

[ricpunchline]
