[katinkers]

._. totally surprised. for some reason when i clicked on this i was expecting to find a couple of tools who couldn't play. nice job not being those.

[NO11YOU]

@katinkers Mind explaining to me the mistakes they made? Looks spot on to me.

[katinkers]

@NO11YOU I didn't say they made any mistakes? I said I was surprised to see they were actually really, really good.

[NO11YOU]

@katinkers My bad, misread

[TheAceOfOnes]

Looks like God disliked this 16 times because they learned how to play like him

[MrPublic7enemy]

2:50 to the end made me poop my pants

[thelucky0239]

wow.. boner

[StevenStormTrooper]

it doesn't sound like the guitars are too high up.

[MrPublic7enemy]

@StevenStormTrooper he means the straps are to tight

[StevenStormTrooper]

@MrPublic7enemy lol i know.. that was kinda my point d: bad wording on my side

[MrPublic7enemy]

@StevenStormTrooper oh ok

[Bl420r]

Guitars are to high up, they must be french or something.

[cavtekk]

I jizzed

[bilcouch013]

play yngwie malmsteen and ill be impresseed

[sensertron]

O!!!!M!!!!G!!!!!

[AwwMaiGawd]

YES.

[danbobdavis]

@CraigTheCaveMan Well that depends on your level of playing I suppose. I've been practicing some stuff off of the new Human Abstract album and some Animals As Leaders lead lines. You can always find lots of little exercises to mess around with too if you google guitar lessons. Don't avoid difficult. Work up to it.

[danbobdavis]

@CraigTheCaveMan Speed is a byproduct of precision. Whatever it is you're trying to play faster, practice about a half an hour a day for two weeks or so and be critical of yourself. Start out really slow, maybe around 90 bpm to a metronome and play it into the ground. If you can play it slowly as clean as possible, the speed will come with repetition and concentration.

[buniqueco]

you guys are sick as fuck and cover awesome songs.... accept for avenged sevenfold, it would be killer if you replaced it with a song by sayyyy Texas in July or maybe even This or the Apocalypse.

[LSOA2]

>.< Loved the stretchings! XD

(And the cover haha)

[TheDevler666]

Well done, but if you were trying to look like a doucher , you did it

[terran1849]

you guys are my heros. lol but seriously this is ridiculously sickkk.

[Kevinkoch2443]

I think playing riff like this on a guitar that high is much easier!

[dobbs123456789]

Mad respect for Wheeler, the dude fucking nailed all the leads.

[prakis57]

palm mute a litter tighter on those alternate picking licks.. otherwise solid as fuck. kudos from NY.

[scottie2hottietfot]

Well that was fucking awesome...

[noobskinsonline]

[sicdrummer666]

[MilesTodd]

Subscribed, sick video.

[willabeesgotapollo13]

@jeremytones ow you have no respect for rythym guitarists. almost all lead guitarists rely on their rythym guitarist

[JadenShelton]

Fantastic.



[joecaccavale95]

I like it! Now i you could do it again with a bassist itd be badass. The bass parts in their songs are fuckin sick.

[thejanitor6166]

noting but props you guys are on point. I'd do vocals with you dudes anyday

[killer118008]

Great job guys!!! :D

[BrokenBondsOfSanity]

I've heard this song at least 20 times today, and it just keeps getting better.

[MikeyRoberto]

I wish I had badass friends like you guys :C

[fckth3systm]

Its not that they are horrible at headbanging, its that the guy on the left is really trying to get the fluid out of his ear that built up after the guy on the right stole his alcohol soaked cotton balls and stuck them in his ears...that and he is headbanging with a PRS. Seriously though, great playing.

[MegaHero71]

Jizz has firmed around my crotch from watching this. Only word to describe this is EPIC!

[CranKsXvsN]

man you guys are the shit not even gonna lie

[martinwaltfor]

Dudes youre awesome!!

[213SEMPERFI]

Goddamn! This shit soooo good, makes me have a eargasm. @ 2:50 is amazing.

[tsunami2011]

sweet cover guys!

[MartyVintage91]

TIGHT! (in a non-gay way)

[MartyVintage91]

TIGHT!

[int3rgalactic44]

1:30 hahahaha

[osanan]

Great job!

[champ13022]

Kid on the right reminds me of asking alexandrias drummer James Cameron lol

[mwiguitar62]

I can do that.

By myself.

Both guitars.

With one banjo.

[synawat]

@Streamec just alternate pick that shittttt

[alexstypes]

@Streamec No its cool man. I had already learned the song by ear prior to getting the tab book. They tabbed it out in the book how they play it live which is different than the studio recording, so I just played it by ear as close to the studio version as I could figure out.

[tsunami2011]

@alexstypes they play it differently? that explains why something sounds off when im playing to it.

[alexstypes]

@Streamec Didn't use tabs. I have the Fortress tab book but even their own tabs aren't accurate to how it was played in the studio.

[whatstillremains]

dood what model ibanez prestiege is that?

[alexstypes]

@Streamec Thanks man. It's all alternate picking until 2:21 where it's mostly a sweep with a few economy picks mixed in there.

-Alex

[RockLeeSmile]

DAMN that was awesome. Both of you play brilliantly. Thanks for making these PtH vids, I'll have to check out your original work.

[mo3o4]

0:54 - 0:58 I smiling headbang my the guy in the grey shirt. creeeeepy D:

[frankenfields]

what model ibanez is that?

[GuitArjo94]

un-fucking-believable

[TheGrimRifferX]

I knew it! The chair was for the sweep picking bit! Nice work though (Y)

[diegoecuask8]

better than the original :)

[Petey0707]

awesome guys, fucking, AWESOME

[Sis1234]

Dude, that has to be the most dead on cover I have ever heard. You guys are sick.

[understandingmidget]

you guys are amazing

[jerrodmn320]

The fella on the right at 1:30. The hardest.

[skunkfromcamden]

You guys deserve a stage to play. I bet you may have written loads of stuff. Your covers are awesome! you rock all youtube

[sk8err4everr]

i guess nobody knows what a cover is :L

[Khaiazizburns]

why does the guitar look so small on the guy in grey. anyway, great cover!

[ImTheSleeper]

lol, i love going through your comments cause you guys are freakin hilarious lol. i mean really, yeah we dont play guitar the guitars are holograms xD but seriously, anyone who thinks your vids are fake is a moron, because i have heard a few missed notes, or miss synchronized harmonies on some of your vids......and nobody fake sweeps that well....... you guys are truly amazing though.

[iwalkwithyourshadow]

at 2:45 i realized the soul purpose of the chair

[brandonbake]

Great at guitar...... horrible at headbanging great cover guys!

[llamadodesombras]

I couldn't find you on itunes

[LadyDargDiulai]

I'm in love.. That was fucken AWESOME!!!!!!

[math1st]

LOL that is the WORST headbang ive ever seen, but ur both amazing players !

[213SEMPERFI]

This is just ORGASMIC.

[gvonderau]

I thought this was amazing until the sweep picking then my head exploded! Wow!

[TheMokomi300]

lol Alex, you know you wanted to go more hardcore with the headbanging at :56 :D

[hktkOmat]

you pro :D

[danbobdavis]

It's kind of sad. You get a guitar cover video with good recording quality and everyone thinks it's fake.

[TheSoulanumBand]

all u guys sayiin is fake like really? try actually listening i just heard a added in pinch harmonic. and they harmonized it more. maybe th reason all think its off is cuz they play it so damn good! \m/ an yall sayin them right there own stuff?? wow haha you guys go write your own stuff and post it on youtube and try to get someone to watch it. its for poblicity. :)

[alexstypes]

@TheSoulanumBand Lol thanks for the help bud!! We do write our own stuff though...you have it right, its almost like the covers are used just as bait...and the songs are fun to play haha.

-JKR

[ChromeFang]

@alexstypes bait hahaha :P good idea

[Budgetgravy]

Wow, fucking beastly cover.

[cucabanger]

im only 15 how do i excersice my fingers to go that fast without getting a cramp!

[Smithj312612]

It's nice to see people actually performing a cover rather than sitting on chairs.

[ZombicidalMan]

Shit, that orange guitar seems to be a beautiful PRS. Unless I'm wrong? :p Amazing playing, by the way, and good luck, you guys have mad skills.

[KsEngage292]

THATS SOME HARDCORE NIGGER SHIT!!! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST.
