Sonata Arctica - Flag In The Ground Solo Cover (Garrett Peters)

[Lizzy666Metal]

He looks like the guitarist of Mago de Oz, Jorge Salan

[lordbeby]

the best, wow! *-*

[DeathnDishonour]

Yeah, Sonata... but do you know fine their story?

[OZBOURNE3]

We are free from eternal serfdom !!!! im gonna bring you home my light !!!!

[MrTheMtte]

One word: Amazing!

[karlozarctico]

[urdumbfoo]

[rokarollaphh]

Great playing and nice t-shirt Greek metal re mounia!!!!!!!!!!έτσι γιατι γουστάρουμε!

[khanforce]

hey man legal !

[AeonsOfFrost]

"I stick my flag in the ground, screaming and shouting, I've never felt so proud!"

Best cheesy lyrics EVER.

[theykillkennybastard]

Incredible cover of one of my favourited song. I'm listening and if you don't mind I'd like to recommend you another, because I think you'd take a fancy to this song - Emerald Sword by Rhapsody of Fire.

[ANOTHERHOLEINYOHEAD]

I could realistically see you in a famous metal band, you really have that metal guitarist look.

[TheFunnyFungi]

Fantastic Skill

[XxRoboGopherxX]

I'm trying to learn this song right now, and I have absolutely no idea how you can play this as clean as you can.

[EyezManiac]

Dude.Flag in the ground is a awesome song, and your cover is very good.Bravo !

[MrBogu94]

what pedal do you use?:D

[EpicMarty101]

I love how you always look so calm and relax while you play a sick solo

[jockermanmetalerop]

el solo no me gusta mucho pero me gusta mucho como lo tocas,,, muy bueno

[SomeRandomTangent]

nice n clean

[NewGuyCommentary]

Could you do the old Battlefield 2 theme =)?

[RideTheLigtning]

Amazing song, amazing cover. This guy's a great musician... I have a question though, I am brutal with audio/ video capture stuff. What do you use to record your videos and audio?

[Pedr6500]

FIREWIND :3

[moviemaker3000]

Elias is a wonderful replacement for Jani. Haters gonna hate.

Anyway, great cover man, very solid and clean playing!

[martinguitar20]

beautiful gibson man and sick solo

[TrenchcoatNinja3]

Yous should try the solos from Black Sheep.

[borielucas06]

lead perfection at its best!!

[hashibatune]

I saw a car with Sonata as the title on the ass of it

[nikbike]

Where do you find the tabs??

[ZuldicCtus]

Pure eargasm!

[darrellrobertsangel]

Awesome

Horns high

(H)

[blackakuma]

Would I would do to have that shirt and that hair.

[metalero690]

@blackakuma that's not a heavy hair, that's a woman hair :/

[riverrb]

@metalero690 nvidia?

[metalero690]

@riverrb no boludo, es pelo de mina eso

[6Blu6Storm6]

@blackakuma and his talent!

[joshlasseigne]

@blackakuma not much just buy the shirt from him and just grow your hair long lol

[Dervanon]

@blackakuma really? thats what you envy him for? i would start with the guitarskills....

[Faudeth]

Ohmygosh, I love your shirt :O

[Sniperkag]

Nice solo. How many guitars you have lol?

[g0TdAmNiT]

Hi garretJPeters, youre awesome. Can you please tell me

where i can get the tab? or maybe tell me what tuning it is so i can figure it out myself :)

thank you, once again ur awesome :P

[PenguinarityProd]

@g0TdAmNiT The tuning is D Standard and you should probably just learn it from ear to be safe from all those innaccurate internet tabs :)

btw please click the "show more" button and read what pops up before posting these kind of questions :)

[DanielMatotek]

Holy shit dude, that was like perfection sound and everything. Let's start a band hahah

[Xezbethnovitch]

GREAT!!!!!

[hbraun]

awesome!!!

[MoshersRage]

you should cover Wolf and Raven!

[fodibo]

I have the utmost respect for you, not only because of the fact that you nailed the solo, but also in all of your video's you play so clean while standing up. Many great guitarists can't do that. If I get a skype I am definitely taking lessons from you.

[maryforever100]

[MrGuitarTormentor]

Man thats perfect. Great sound \m/



[Damnedfaith]

I jizzliked

[Earnhardt12345]

Nice seeing a shreader playing a Les Paul!! Looks like a Desert Burst standard.. I have a Desert Burst traditional, very nice guitars..

[gears2fan888]

omg its so catchy! :D

[squirlybmx]

His sweeps in this seriously blow my mind. I can watch a loomis video over and over again enjoy this more than that. It's so effortless it's like he's just thinking about taking a shit in a few minutes when he's done with the video.

[OfBloodandBone]

jesus man. you actually make me want to play guitar for a month straight so i can get better. lol keep going strong dude. Maybe some Iron Maiden. i would like to see that.

[MusicalMisanthropist]

I pissed myself at 0:27

[VicaCOBHC]

<3

[naits95]

Firewind shirt! \m/

[mioteira]

wich distorsion do you use?

[XxSysysterGatesxX]

haha Loved it :) One of my favourite songs by them too :P )O( bb

[METAL999ROCK]

555 people like this 111 more and with my vote 110

[superpiratepants]

what the hell... badass playing :D

[xthelonedrowx]

that distortion in 0:19,,,, how do you do it ?

[behemoth666123]

@xthelonedrowx it's called an "artificial harmonic" combined with a fast and strong vibrato. try to google this, you should find some lessons on that. Even thought this technique basically is easy to understand, it might take you a while to really nail it down.

[xthelonedrowx]

@behemoth666123 Thanks for the help (:

[n1ll3r]

@xthelonedrowx it's called a pinch harmonic dude. check out Zakk Wylde, he does it all the time. It's kinda hard to get down, but once you get the technique right, you'll be squealing your ass off.

[xthelonedrowx]

@n1ll3r haha thanks man, im still working on it

[robibm2003]

Loved the clean, clear look of the video and the playing, of course, was superb.

[LilMissFiction]

Amazing! Just....Amazing!

[SamuelDSouza1]

i wish i could play guitar like you... :( nice vid man!

[brcalzbastru]

respect for arpegios !

[theThrasher51]

ha 'Elias'

thats my name!

nice cover btw

[bigmonkeyneif]

i love your les paul..tis incredible

[Miostro]

In my opinion,this is your best solo...they are all amazing,but this one is even more amazing :D

[Maguimetal]

Just perfect ♥

[catzilla16]

4 people don't have ears 0.o

[AriochStarr]

thanks Gerrett for the message

The 'new' guiatrist? what happened to the old guitarist, Jani Liimatainen (if I'm not utterly mistaken)?

As long as they keep the singer, Tony Kakko, and the keyboardist, Henrik Klingenberg, I don't MIND who they take out, but I would like the old Jani back =/

[AriochStarr]

Can I just ask, Who's Elias Viljanen?

[sk8nguitar4evr]

@AriochStarr i imagine someone has already mentioned this to you, hes the new ( well not new now) but the replacement guitarist for the old guitarist jani liimatainen after the album unia.

[AriochStarr]

@sk8nguitar4evr Oh, that's new, I didn't know he was a peplacement AFTER Unia, I thought their songs later songs seemed a bit... different, if that's the word for it

[LightYagamiTheNewGod]

Better than Elias Viljanen

[TheDanielltd]

Much better than elias

I it sit my opinion

[HaistaPaska92]

@TheDanielltd You mean gewerh44? I kinda have to agree with you, not that it is a competition. Both are awesome

[PrinceMarcusWilliam]

@TheDanielltd I totally disagree but this kid can play nonetheless.

[RingmosklN]

@TheDanielltd I wouldn't say that until i have heard some original songs from this guy ^^ Elias's own songs are kickass!

[RingmosklN]

@TheDanielltd Ok i just found out he had some original stuff (that was aweeeeesome).. But still i like Elias more =)

[3BDRR7MAN]

@TheDanielltd I dont think so.

[kettu1000]

@TheDanielltd

lol



[XaleManix]

@TheDanielltd Elias wrote the solo, just keep that in mind.

[UnderWorldXporiginal]

good!!!!!!

[squirlybmx]

I don't know why but every time I see you play the sweep after the keyboard solo I think of melted chocolate being poured out of a ladle because of how smooth your hand moves when playing it.

[guitarplayer9090]

lol haha thanks for the comments you put on my wall im honored oh thanks for getting me into this band *going to learn the song*\m/

-Jason

[wtfimalive]

[butterfly7171]

[Thuggybcobhc]

[LZPress]

Bien Flaco, pero no es la guitarra

[Rsx1rokr]

ridiculous clean sweeps and very clever switching between pickups! Clearly a lot of thought and practice goes behind the covers :)

[WinterMadness05]

[musicaddict333]

Two Sonata Arctica songs I would love to see covered are Wolf & The Raven and Caleb, they are my fav songs by them, but wicked shredding man keep it up! \m/

[summitthescale]

I don't know what it is about your sweeps, but in every video they are so clean and fluent. It honestly sounds better than the original recordings.

[xxh4ny0uxx]

THAT SHIRT IS OF MY FAVORITE BAND

Thank god there are more Firewind fans out there

[shawnl91]
