How to play the Metalocalypse theme song with brendan small

[gatoradeee]

the amp + guitar is so beefy

[UziShoes]

"sconna be pretty coo" xD

[AnthonyGodDamnRuiz]

@xxraddictionxx what are you talking about the last 2min is him showing us how to do the solos

[AnthonyGodDamnRuiz]

This guys a dick

[XxRaddictionxX]

If you didn't record this with a toaster we might be able to see what fingers your frets are on.....

[XxRaddictionxX]

No solos? Damn.

[Smithz92]

Hold my hand please. I wanna be touched by a God

[Th3RantDoctor]

Brendon*

[Pitoowy]

i love the gibson explorer

[Sk8erEd93]

he shouldv been all lik "im not gonna hold ur fucken hand, just watch my fingers"

[MrIxtab]

what tunning?

[yourheartofdarkness]

@MrIxtab drop c

[elvenskwig]

@yourheartofdarkness Nice try. C standard.

[yourheartofdarkness]

@elvenskwig 0:52 i forgot he corrected himself

[elvenskwig]

@yourheartofdarkness Yeah. You COULD play it in Drop C though (that's how I do it).

[yourheartofdarkness]

@elvenskwig wish i could i dont have thick enough strings to do so any more

[elvenskwig]

@yourheartofdarkness haha mine are 11-54 but I don't wanna spend 2 hours tuning (I got a floyd rose haha)

[yourheartofdarkness]

@elvenskwig oh yeah setting the floyd would take a while and would be a waste if you dont play in C standard and low C very often and yeah i would like try the the heavier gauge Dunlops i did try the Ernies heavy top skinny bottom but i like the way dunlops play and feel better

[elvenskwig]

@yourheartofdarkness Personally my favorites are the DR Drop Down Tunings. I haven't tried the heavy ernies.

[yourheartofdarkness]

@elvenskwig ive never tried DR's but i bet the are pretty good and an interesting thing about the Dunlops is that they pick up sounds that Ernie's just muffled

[QuickSilverXc]

9 people want you to spoon feed it to them

[Greg321m]

I would try this out if I weren't so lazy about changing my guitar tunings back and forth.

[Opisthotonos]

@Greg321m thats my problem right now...

[CpeanutB]

wow wat a punk

[Saytahne666]

Learning Guitar is easy when Hitler is not teaching it.

[MoshpitSuperstar]

I love the show so much that I seriously have the word "Brutal" tattooed on my lower back.

[villanonickXgmail]

SWEEPS!!!

[thaprofessor1]

Brendon Small kicks so much ass

[skeeterbeanz09]

:O

[SantaWithGuns]

The tab book is pretty accurate guys. Way better than those on ultimate guitar anyways. Though its missing Blood Ocean and the Coffee Jingle.

[GmonkeyJ777]

thumbs up if you sang the theme song!

[IsaiahIzzyBoyd]

I need tabs please!!!

[andrewbeginning]

There are few things in life that bring me more joy than the type of metal that Brendon cranks out on this show. The harmonics in the theme song are so epic!!

[jenkem110]

I am surprised at how normal brendan small looks.

[scarecrow6613613750]

@wolve3447 ...correction, 8 people were WWRRROOOOONNGGG!!!!

[nirvanafan1226]

what tuning?

[Firecrotch6979]

@nirvanafan1226 Step down probably.

[cartmanrulez32]

they removed the tabs off ultimate guitar thats lame...

[wolve3447]

8 ppl didnt know how to paly this on guitar

[atticusboyx]

''do anything for Dethklok, do anything for Dethklok, do anything for Dethklok, do anything for Dethklok'' XD

[PhysioProdigyMusic]

@atticusboyx its actually doodily ding dong tick tock

[SublimeDimebagg]

i swas like oh this dude is badass till he started thinking he was better than anyone else. i love dethklok with a passion, but fuck you small. we made you. and still make you money. So at least have the shared passion to teach a fucking song slower. 

[inked31]

@SublimeDimebagg Really his lesson is better than the ones that walk you through every step. It makes you think for yourself and you will retain more of what you learn. Really man. And it is an advanced kind of lesson, if your just starting then yeah, your pretty screwed, but go to ultimate-guitar for the tabs and it will make it easier.

[SublimeDimebagg]

@inked31 Thanks man. it just kinda pisses me off.

[inked31]

@SublimeDimebagg Yeah i can understand that. My bands working on our first album, the divine loss of sanity, band name flatline, and it gets frustrating when your learning but when your the one playing the music, teaching someone note by note is so tedious, I just understand what it's like. The first three songs we did I had to baby our backup guitarist, and it pissed me off. But he learned when I taught kinda like brendon smalls, and he learned the techniques behind the riff. My opinion...

[OzzyTellica1]

its swisgars gibson exploler

[TeamDarknessSPR]

anyone find this ironic that a guy who has the same name as the home movies character works on another Adult Swim show

[YagoMcLovin]

@TeamDarknessSPR he created that show dude

[TSanMig]

@TeamDarknessSPR it's the same guy on both =]

[mentalmonti]

i feel like hes having a go at me lol... but nice lesson

[RYPEAR666]

hey the real guy trying to learn this song is rypear666 not me he accidently used my profile for this comment so id appreciate it if i got no more messages on how to play this song lol (this is funneyhaha)

[RYPEAR666]

hey the real guy trying to learn this song is rypear666 not me he accidently used my profile for this comment so id appreciate it if i got no more messages on how to play this song lol

[Ckhris28]

that's not whammy it's pitch something

[SLonergan59]

@Ckhris28 The pedal is called a whammy pedal.

[thrashistheshit]

@SLonergan59 The effect is a tremelo arm simulation, which you can find on several pitch shifting and harmonising effects pedals

[Funneyhaha]

where's the tab shit i've been lookin every where

[xXsaltThewoundXx1]

@Funneyhaha i learned the song by just looking at this if i could do it you could do it

[narfire214]

@Funneyhaha he says in the video LOOK AT HIS FUCKIN FINGERS

[BluesfireTV]

....Brutal.

[primalpump10]

hahaha i don't think he changes/adjusts his voice at all when he does Offdensen's voice.

[EMERALDanimations]

do you folks like coffee?!

[hiladelphia]

@EMERALDanimations we folks do like coffee

[Joey6327]

Ger.... im stupid.. and i need tabs. or a better guitar teacher

[TylerHaagenson]

@Joey6327 just need to put the work in man, it's bullshit doing stuff by ear/ sight but if you know your basics it will come to you eventually.

[xXEvErYChRiS1995Xx]

what a dick

[klogg4]

hey, am I the only one who doesn't find Deththeme so much hard to play?

[Froob1013]

lol small

[TrudgeThroughTheMud]

i dnt think brandon him self took the tabs dwn n he seems pretty nice 2 me

[AcornMcSquirrlyTV]

@TrudgeThroughTheMud yeah but it wouldnt be that surprising if he did though you can see the douche all over him

[PhoenixFirebreath]

Brandon U rock, and ur brutal!

[AcornMcSquirrlyTV]

well brendon how about you walk us through this shit you did take down all the tabs you slimy ball of shit.....you make great music too bad your a dildo

[Clike666ness]

@AcornMcSquirrlyTV

I don't think Brendon Small took it down, most likely his superiours or something.

[Ajbadboy252]

I was going to get an explorer but the neck was a little to thick for my taste... But other than that it was a great guitar while i was playing it at the music store

[jjboy309]

Awsome

[KoRnJDFan]

I wonder if the no body cares when you're cocky thing is why I like Dethklok but thing Brendan Small is a d bag prick. Sorry but the way he has that I dont have all this time attitude is him letting the money and fame go to his head like he has anything better to do in that next 10 minutes. No, he just let fame and money go to his head so he is being a hypocrit by saying dont get cocky... He is cocky. I would love to throat punch that little worm.

[guitarfreak094]

@KoRnJDFan when your on a tour and have to come up with episode ideas and music for the episodes im pretty sure you wouldnt have all the time in the world to do anything at all.... if anything all the stress and work was getting to him while he made this video. watch any other interview and you'll see he's not really like this and its probably adult swim that took the tabs of the internet cause they have partial ownership of what brendon does

[trexIII000]

@KoRnJDFan he's just kidding. he writes comedy cartoons. he's a "funny" guy.

[Markula4O4O]

@KoRnJDFan Wow......what a dick....- Nathan Explosion's reaction to your comment

[MaitreGore]

Nathan Explosion should be President of the universe.

[Markula4O4O]

@MaitreGore Yeah and all he'd is eat potato chips-HahahaxD

[LupinaLycan]

I'm saving up to buy an electric, and I've been stocking up on tabs and watching fingering patterns religiously. I hope I can learn to play someday!

[belovedGhost777]

@LupinaLycan tabs aint they way to go xDDDD you should buy an acoustic whille youre at it i use an acoustic when im practicing shredding etc since the strings on an acoustic are thicker than an electric youll notice it after you go through and acoustic electric is cheese

[LupinaLycan]

@belovedGhost777 Actually I do have an acoustic and I've been trying to play it for almost a year now. The only problem is that it's too damn big for my tiny girl hands! I've heard that electrics are smaller and easier to play, but I do see where you're coming from. Thanks for your advice.

[belovedGhost777]

@LupinaLycan rofl for a guy trust me i have girl hands rofl so i feel youre pain xDD electrics arent smaller its just thiner than an acoustic and strings are less thick ^_^

[LupinaLycan]

@belovedGhost777 ah ok. maybe I will give my acoustic another shot then before I pawn it off for an eletric.

[belovedGhost777]

@LupinaLycan youre gonna pawn it!?! is it your first guitar? always keep the first guita its a lucky char and a reminder of how hard you worked learning with it

[metaljunkie98]

@LupinaLycan if your looking for a thin neck get a fender strat or a les paul depending on how much you are willing to spend

[LupinaLycan]

@metaljunkie98 Thanks! I'll check them out.

[aido1987]

@LupinaLycan you can get all different sizes of electric guitar, depending on what you prefer to play

[a7xgodsmack]

haha its funny hes like all mean and like im not gonna hold ur hand through it and then hes like look its just i dont have all the time in the world but great thing to learn im still trying to learn it

[teamogleal]

haha cute nerd

[Acid346]

NATHAN EXPLOSION

[FilthFreak25]

dude, that's so badass, it sound a hell of a lot harder than it actually is haha

thanks man, this video helped a lot

[Scorpionspearzu]

its true about that cocky comment

[Sparksterfu]

He is just fucking around if he didn't have time to show you then he wouldn't have bothered making a video.

[uptheirons10000]

He looks like edward norton

[SoulOnDeparture666]

@uptheirons10000 fucking twins!

[TheSystemWillKillYou]

It's an act. He's a god damn comedian that's also an awesome guitarist.

[youfreaker]

lucky guy he works there... (the world is unfair)

[H4L0GaNGT4R]

So yeah go annoy people now

[mca1houn]

@Justforthelulz you're probably right, but him being a mega dick makes it that much more funny. I fucking love how he's such a prick. Is there really anything more metal?

[Supersaiiyin]

fuckin OSUM!

[justforthelulzzz]

The thing is, he probably has all the time in the world for this shit.

[ripper965]

wow bucket head can kick tihs guys ass i like brendan smalls but he dosent half to be a dick he just could say i dont have time to show this in stide of i not going to hold your hand fiugher this out on your own

You're in for a rude awakening in a few years.

[MimiWildflower]

@morecowbell69 ....lol, don't ruin the surprise.

[LonewolfeE5]

[WithoutHorizon]

[fear741]

@WithoutHorizon can i steal your soul?

[WithoutHorizon]

@fear741 If i get a new guitar, hell yea. I want a Dethklok and Black Dahlia Murder tshirt too, and a Job for a Cowboy CD as well.

[shredsled666]

what is the tuning for this song... at first he says drop c then he says low c? does anyone know what the tuning is for this song.. Could someone like tell me string by string.

[Klokateer671]

@shredsled666 hey, its C standard. From top to bottom your gonna have C, F, Bb, Eb, G, C. if you like i can give you a site to tune there from.

[t4ll3y]

wow brendan small is kind of a dick.

[CerealKiller5150]

"look at my finger and figure it out" huh?? well i suppose there's no TABS for it either?? lol

[WeAreAnonymous1000]

@CerealKiller5150 They actually had nearly all of the online Dethklok tabs removed. WTF?

[OGuitarGuy]

They should make a Brendan Small barbie. I mean.. action figure.

[Awardcrazed]

That song would be awesome on guitar hero..lmao

[sonofknoxville]

looks nothing like nathan but he can play like swisgarr

[xDXPxJOEx456x1]

that guitar is awesome

[DanfuckingB]

"im not going to hold your hand like you're a baby, look at my fingers and figure it out" such a bad ass

[TheBluntLad]

Wish I had that guitar. Krank is so shitty though.

[Cynderz82]

"..look at my fingers and figure it out" - lol

He is awesome!

Anyone else think he looks like Ed Norton in this clip?

[HiTEqMETHOD]

@Cynderz82

I was just thinking that, especially when he says to just figure it out, he makes an expression like Edward Norton did in Fight Club.

[1x93cm]

@Cynderz82 rofl! yah

[WentMillerGal15]

@Cynderz82 I was thinking Jeremy Piven in a way but I do see Edward Norton more. Lol.

[desertman123]

what amp does he use?

[SkateboardingKumquat]

@desertman123 You're serious? Look at it.

[desertman123]

@SkateboardingKumquat no shit sherlock, krankenstein? rev jr?

[RatherBeWatchingPorn]

home movies

[resistance6]

Yes...We must annoy everyone!

[aslbled06]

what a p.i.m.p.!!! he is fucking cool!

[Firealinvader]

On the show Dethklok has referred their genre of metal as "Ragnarok metal" LOL

The second album is not as great as the first one...so no guitar lessons from that album...LMAO!

[sataros09]

rofl brendan small is such an asshole its great "im not going to hold your hand like your a baby, figure it out yourself"

[MhmToasty]

Guys if you think hes being an ass well hes one of the creators of the show so hes only kidding

[sonoranguitarlois]

this guy is such an ass.

[bymeafucking360]

i met him and he's actually really nice. just him trying to be "deathklokish"

[thedeem0N]

first off, xxsladedethxx, that's called the "spider chord", second, this guy has a $2000 Gibson Explorer (plus god knows what upgrades he's had done to it), he's playing into either a Krank Rev SST ($950+), or a Krank Krankenstein ($1750), over a $1300-$1400 Krank 412 Cabinet. Now I'm not 1 to use cheap guitars/amps, I have a Gibson '67 Flying V & a Marshall JCM 2000 Dual Super Lead Head w/ a Peavey 5150 412 Slant cab w/ a matching 412 straight cab loaded w/ aftermarket celestions...

[cunigham]

holy shit thats brutal

[THEGSPOT0394]

nice gear dude.

[xxsladedethxx]

he used the dave mustaine power chord

[anongoat]

the tab was removed from UG. lame

[xenariz]

omg thats gay...

[tsan76]

Dethklok for ever!

[voyager71390]

he looks similar to neil patrick harris in this video

[sk8erkidd16]

dosnt he play the voice of ther manager

[halo3sniper213]

h eplays most of the characters

[halo3sniper213]

he* my bad

[dogmatrees]

yea. thats the first voice i picked out when i watched this. its awesome.

[comedyguru]

Good! It's time for people to start taking their own initiative. Everybody wants to be be fucking coddled and handheld. Case in point: the new Mario for the Wii has fucking videos showing you how to complete the stage. Why buy a fucking game to watch videos on how to complete stages???

[funknotik]

What gauge strings does he use to play in C standard. I have 11's and they feel kind of loose...

[mickandsambothrule]

try 11's on drop A

now thats loose

[dagl086]

drop a? why not just play a bass lol

[mickandsambothrule]

lmao

some of the stuff needs to be in that tuning XDD

[MachineGunMessiah]

@mickandsambothrule

try .09's on drop A...

THATS loose

[IvoryStars]

@MachineGunMessiah

Try yo mama after about 3 beers.

SHE'S loose!

[ThatRandomGuy325]

did u name urself after a sybreed song??

[MachineGunMessiah]

Happens to one of their best songs...

Long live Sybreed!!

[lobiondo32]

he plays 13s, lol. he says it in an interview. i play in c with 12, and theres fine like that, but has 13s.

[vnalder1234]

@lobiondo32

He uses 10-52.

[polarchucky]

O_______O ....................holy shit.....

[skoobasteeve]

[TheAdamSeay]

haha hes got a point, this aint really for beginners so jus watch and learn...if u can't tell by looking u aint ready to play this shit yet anywayz

[grungebobbz]

1:08

Coach McGurk from Home Movies xD

[Zenstudent105]

Brendan Small is so nerdy, but so kick ass!

[kayeocho]

Don't testafy on a guy who knows his METAL

[DevilHonzo]

@Zenstudent105 Wtf he ain't nerdy at all.

[RKftw68]

@DevilHonzo 34 people disagree

[primalpump10]

@DevilHonzo dude even if he is nerdy he's still the fuckin man lol

[asscockballtits92]

MET4L

[Jgrennier]

I like his music and he can be a douch bag if he wants but it's funny he had to make a cartoon to get a record deal it just goes to show a good attitude goes a long way and dethklok is the shit

[K0RnR0ws]

your too far away atleast explain where your fingers are a little bit

[AceBanyon]

edward norton and brendan small look alike and sound alike wow

[nichklok]

does any know what year that explorer is?

[stoniruca]

i'm not gonna hold your hand like a baby

hahaha

[LifelessLife85]

U mean Brendon

[brian092]

One of my favorite guitarists and he's just a nerd lol

"nobody cares when you're cocky" words of wisdom
