[Yerflua]

Dude, your frickin' fingers were not born on this planet, they arrived in a small spaceship from Krypton.

[checkeredflag90210]

i hope they use this is The Man of Steel (2012). It would be great if they modernize it with modern orchestration and maybe add some choir and it will sound epic.

[StardustFusion]

ahhhh please when you have the time, tab this? :3

[shredthrashboy]

@StardustFusion dude, it took me 2 weeks to listen, work out, and play this lol. It would take me the rest of the year to tab this lol. i think at one point in this i have 12 guitars playing lol.

[StardustFusion]

[wingsofsteel13]

Simply beautiful. I love the pictures as well.

Just wondering though, have you tried a metal cover of Danny Elfman's Batman theme yet? If it's even half as good as this it'd be amazing.

[shredthrashboy]

@wingsofsteel13 I'll give it a try when i can dude, i have thought about it. Im just busy mixing and mastering my bands new cd. as well as doing my own solo music. But i'll defo do it at some point. the other i concidered was back to the future and predator.

[M1GU3L07]

Epic... thats all I have to say about this... EPIC!

[jgtyuhbggf]

[SoraMatt]

PLEASE tell me you made an MP3 for this?! NEEDS FOR MUSIC OF BADASSERY!

[Wedmik]

Superman is awessome

[Tonycaveman]

This is awesome. I have always been a sucker for anything John Williams, especially classics such as this one.

You really knocked it out of the park with this. Great tone, arrangement and even the recording is not too bad. Thanks a lot for uploading.

[shredthrashboy]

@Tonycaveman Thanks dude. You made my day.

[cuneoluis]

that one person is lex luthor

[Steve8482247]

this was friggin AWESOME!!!! damn man....if i ever competed in something i need entrance music to, this would be it.

[starfoxhound87]

where did you find the pic in 1:48? Its so symbolic!

[AtomicFFProductions]

Now that, was epic win :) - Awesome man - awesome!

[shadowadrian]

Dammit I need this on my iPod1

[NeoTechni]

WHERE IS THE MP3!??!?!

[youngjizzy82]

This is most definitely the BEEEEST arrangement of the Superman theme I have ever heard! Keep doin what you do! Nobody can possibly have any ill will towards you or your hellacious guitar skills!

[shredthrashboy]

@youngjizzy82 haha thanks man, your too kind lol.

[78genocide]

In the words of Butthead, "Uhhh uh-huh-huh-huh-- this kicks ass!"

[JamesJoseph1000]

This sounds like Joe Satriani playing the Superman theme.

[shredthrashboy]

@JamesJoseph1000 haha i'll take that as a compliment. thanks.

[jackandbeer420]

can you play it more darker metal superman theme just for fun with 3 DIME DEAN AND 2 WARLOCK ELECTRIC GUITARS and 2 BASS GIBSON ELECTRIC GUITARS 1 DIME DEAN RAZORBACK V BASS ELECTRIC GUITAR AND 1 2010 B.C. RICH WARLOCK BASS ELECTRIC GUITAR.It would be a new cool superman theme and you tube video please thanks peace one love man

[jackandbeer420]

your cool man can i be your new friend

[jackandbeer420]

THIS MAKES ME WANT TO BE SUPERMAN THE MOST BADASS METAL SUPERMAN THEME EVER NICE WORK I LIKE AND ALL SO I CAN NOT WAIT FOR THE NEW SUPERMAN MOVIE SUPERMAN THE MAN OF STELL : DOOMSDAY OR BRAINIAC MAYBE IN 2011 SUMER OF 2012 I DONT KNOW ANY WAY I JUST CANT WAIT ITS GOING TO BE BADASS GOOD

[shredthrashboy]

@jackandbeer420 haha thanks man. glad you liked it. Dont know what to think about "Man of Steel" i hear its gona be another "REBOOT"! And we've already seen the guys origins (and honestly the first 1978 Superman is one of the most perfect movies ever made.) So I just wish they'd tread new ground and not just keep remaking everything. (ok rant over haha)

[scsawwfattitude]

@shredthrashboy I know, right. What I want to see is how a World's Finest live action movie would turn out. Awesome rendition!!! BTW, can I make a request for the theme from Tim Burton's Batman?

[TeknomanScimitar]

@shredthrashboy but think of the fight scene....with today's technology, imagine what the SUPERMAN FIGHT SCENE will be like. *drools* That is the one biggest thing i think everyone wants to see out of a Superman movie, a huge, epic, DBZ style (as sacreligous as it is to put DBZ and Supes in the same senense), fight scene, with him using all his powers!

[SoraMatt]

where can I get an mp3 for this shred? totally need it in my playlist

[WillBNunn]

THAT WAS AMAZING!!!

[spacexploder]

sick

[GalacticKnight]

The one person who disliked this is Lex Luthor.

[SoraMatt]

too bad this didn't have a bass and drums accompanyment, with a smidge of keyboard, that'dve been just badass, but great job. It makes it sound like a 21st Century Superman, like late 90s to early-mid 2000s, when the world really needed Superman

[Adrianism1]

Haha how do you have more views and comments then I do, and I put my version up 2 years ago! Haha I ain't hating!

[shredthrashboy]

@Adrianism1 haha well... i think you and i were going for differnt vibes.

[Adrianism1]

@shredthrashboy haha possibly :)

[99mxylptlk]

EPIC!!!!

[heatblizzard]

I've never seen Stupid I mean Superman but I sure LOVE your arrangment! :)

I've noticed the actual theme seems to start about 01:00 into the vid.

[calicom110]

@heatblizzard nope the theme starts from the beginning

[SoraMatt]

@heatblizzard actually, the actual arrangement in the classical composition has that extra minute that most don't consider part of the actual theme because it's interspliced throughout the films, but it's there. And there's nothing wrong with your preference to the Man of Steel, but at least you're not hating on fans OF Superman, so it's all good

[sexandgromit]

FUCK! This was great! Do you have tabs? Can you hook a brother up? Also, where did the pic at 2:03 come from? Thanks bro

[sexandgromit]

@sexandgromit I got dissed.

[009gozilla]

badass superman theme this theme wood be good for the final superman movie and all so can you make a death metal superman theme more darker then it wood be super badass of a superman theme

[TerminatorT800ish]

superman is the worst superhero ever i mean hes like invincible which is a little to much but the song is freaking sweet especially your version

[shredthrashboy]

Ha ha thanks man, and everyone else who had commented. im doing a new mixdown of this for a cg animator who saw this and i'll be reloading it soon. So stay in touch. plus when i get the time i was thinkin maybe doing somthing with the themes in the first predator movie.

[TerminatorT800ish]

@shredthrashboy sweet

[yagamijase]

@TerminatorT800ish Actually he's not. If you know anything about Superman, then you would know that he is weak against krypnonite and it's various forms. Also, he can be killed by anyone or anything that's equal to his strength. Remember him getting killed by Doomsday?

[TerminatorT800ish]

@yagamijase i remember him alive in EVERY FREAKING MOVIE

[yagamijase]

@TerminatorT800ish And your point being?

[TerminatorT800ish]

@yagamijase he sucks >: (

[yagamijase]

@TerminatorT800ish That's your opinion and I disagree

[TheRandyChimp]

@TerminatorT800ish Superman doesnt suck as a superhero, he sucks as a character. A flag waving cunt who's pretty much a posterboy for the american dream. Batman still managed to kick his ass.

[TerminatorT800ish]

@TheRandyChimp actually captain american or whatever his name is he's the real american fanatic

[TheRandyChimp]

@TerminatorT800ish Nah, he was called captain america because that's what the goverment wanted as his image. Superman chose to be a complete cocksucker.

[TerminatorT800ish]

@TheRandyChimp you know im only 10 years so can you cool down with "Thing"sucking buisness

[TheRandyChimp]

@TerminatorT800ish lol, sorry dude, my bad

[TerminatorT800ish]

@TheRandyChimp its not that its disturbing i just don't want my parents to see this and ban me from youtube. thats already happend to me before so yeah by : )

[Serabo]

@TerminatorT800ish saying you hate superman is saying you hate America. you obviously don't get the character if you say hes the worst. try reading a book.

[TerminatorT800ish]

@Serabo why read a book when i can insult superman all day

[TheRandyChimp]

@Serabo What's wrong with hating America?

[Serabo]

im not going to have a debate with some asshole who calls himself TheRandyChimp.

[TheRandyChimp]

@Serabo lol, I wouldnt either

[victorchapin3]

@TerminatorT800ish super heroes are suppostue be like that lol anyway braniac and doomsday are stronger physicaly, the lerpercaun guy is stronger with powers, and lex is smarter.

[twatrick10]

that was fucking epic that should be in the next film

[IanGriffithsGuitar]

Epic :)

[nightwingx1985]

Jeez man.

If there ever was an equivalent to a Audio Orgasm, this would be it.

I didn't think this would sound so Amazing ;A;

Bravo <3

[heatblizzard]

*goes and buys this on ITunes and puts it in mp3 player only to find it doesn't exist and that I was in the holo-deck of Star Trek Voyager thinking it was real the whole friggin time making me the most stupidest person listening to this.

Darn that hole in the deck. (holodeck) :(

[VirtualGotham]

PPPPPPPPPPLLLLLLLEAAAAAAAAAAAA­SSSSSSSEEEEEEE do Batman from the 1989 Danny Elman theme next!!!

[shredthrashboy]

@VirtualGotham haha ok well i'll see what i can do man. lol. took me like a fortnight to make this.

[VirtualGotham]

WHYYYYYYYY?????? WHY don't you do this in a studio and put it on itunes (namely so I can buy it) THIS IS FANTASTIC!!! If you could get an orchestra to accompany this, it could very well become the modern theme in the next superman movie- FANTASTIC!!!!!

[shredthrashboy]

@VirtualGotham hmm tell you what i'll do a remix of it and see what i can do. Really cant find the enthusiasum to record all this again haha.

[VirtualGotham]

@shredthrashboy MAN!!!! It would be awesome to get a CD of this, I am not even kidding. I am fairly certain that if you did a CD of superhero themes (and Starwars and lord of the rings MAYBE) that CD would sell like hotcakes!!!

[heatblizzard]

@VirtualGotham Except the greedy record lable companies will take most of the pay which will force the author to sell the CD at sky-high prices almost as much as a movie.

Then people will pirate the CD to rebel against the Big Biz thieves and the record label companies will brainwash Chris saying the loss of funding is directly a result of pirating and you wonder why.

[VirtualGotham]

@heatblizzard Man you just depressed me! But true words though.

[shishidoyutaka]

awesome amaizing guitar solo combination.......i love it......

[bluewhiting]

This is great, get a little drums on there. Would make it epiccer!

[PedroHaseo]

I LOVE IT!!

[LegolasManowarMJ]

could you please put a download link to this ? PLEASE !!!! it's EPIC !!!

[GoochShow]

amazing

[DRisLegend200919]

badass rendition

[KeithLearmonth]

This is awesome... I would love to get my hands on an mp3 version of it...

[P0mt3]

You're going way too fast, my friend. The tempo is a huge part of what makes this composition so beautiful and effective. You play very well, but this just doesn't do it for me. The heart of the track was lost a bit I think when you started speeding up.

Just my opinion, though. Keep in mind however that Williams wrote this song at a certain speed for a reason, and he obviously felt the original way to be the most effective. Perhaps something you can keep in mind if you do a second attempt. :)

[GalacticKnight]

@P0mt3 Actually, from what I can hear, they didn't speed up at all. It only sounds like they did because they're using Electric Guitars to compensate for the entire orchestra.

[P0mt3]

@GalacticKnight Then your ears are broken. The tempo is clearly faster than the original. Guitar players have a tendency to let their adrenaline get the better of them. Especially if they're all excited about showing off their mad skillz to YouTube.

[GalacticKnight]

@P0mt3 ....-_-

'Kay, whatever. Insulting me is not cool.

[P0mt3]

@GalacticKnight Oh, no! An Anime emoticon!

If you feel like I insulted you, then I apologize. I just stated what I thought.

[GalacticKnight]

@P0mt3 There's nothing wrong with stating what you thought. I just took offense to you calling my ears broken.

In any case: Apology accepted.

[Insanticus]

where the FUCK is the MP3?

[henrywalsh]

Wow. Is there a way that we can get this on MP3 somehow?

[TomB240493]

thats a shame, i tried it myself from sheet music but it went wrong from about the point thats 2:16 in ur version

[TomB240493]

do you have tabs?

[shredthrashboy]

sorry man, would take me like a month to do it. haha and it took me bloody long enought to transpose each instrument of the orchestra to guitar lol.

[TomB240493]

@shredthrashboy

i tried to tab it out myself from sheet music of the main melody, and it went fine up until the part thats 2:16 in ur vid, from there it goes downhill trying to tab it

[mkdonsfan]

wow this is amazing.sends shivers up my spine

well done

[PunkMetalero96]

1:40-5:16 Badass!!!!

[shredthrashboy]

ha thanks man, apparently you cant please everyone (if you look at some of the other comments lol) but thanks.

[jspartacus]

Ugh. Sounds like an army of gay midget kazoo players.

[Yonell]

what????

[frankpinker]

This is rad. You just need to make it more brutal.

[shadowxps]

Beast. Really gets you in the heroic bad ass mood.

[hellhander]

I love how this song makes you wanna punch some evil-doer through a wall

[MrPackleader]

I cant see how this could possible be better i really wish there was an mp3 of this

[ColombianForLife]

Could be better...

[lynxtouch]
