[Jester666xx]

You played Cowboys From Hell wrong..

How do I know ?

I'm a female metal-head also guitarist and a die-hard fan of Pantera and the legend 'Dimebag' himself.

Learn how to play it properly, you're an insult to Pantera/Dime.

Get your shit together man.

[MrSims456]

baw

[janispreiss]

wtf?

[scobking]

first off, will is a better guitarist tan you guys will ever be. secondly, if you guys are so musically savvy, why are you watching a simple tutorial video on playing metal riffs? lol

[witchcraft90666]

[egresso]

Really enjoyed of your class. Wonderfull riff, really great. Thank you.

[ExileHorror]

Wtf gtfo

[metallicaownsme]

This tuning was drop C, and the guitar riff sounds like Avenged Sevenfold - Beast and the Harlot

[Lovebirdsproject26]

wrong



[aurasmash]

And btw you truly suck at playing the guitar.

[aurasmash]

Death metal? Seriously get your ears fixed

[donSparda]

Death Metal?

Learn Death, Cannibal Corpse, Nile or Deicide, that`s ACTUAL DEATH METAL, not the metalcore twangy A7X stuff.

[CornZ999]

oh that sucks TAKE HIM OFF HIS GUITAR

[journeyman77777]

You play in any key you want freind.Sounds awesome.Experimentation is what its all about.........

[Smoke9255]

I wonder if he knows that Beast and the Harlot, Cowboys from Hell, and Six are not death metal songs.

[001slidewayz]

@Smoke9255 Does it really matter?

[Jautizan]

@Smoke9255 He are destroying the original

[TreR90]

Pretty cool

[Edgeraze]

i thought and thought... why it does sound so shitty?.... then i saw it.... it's because of the line 6 spider :D what a bitch amp.

[Evilcheeseeater]

Nice guitar nice lesson thanks but can you explain more on how to tune down to drop d or drop c im looking more at drop c

[alexgerber102]

quit arguing over the "style" of metal he's playing and WATCH THE VIDEO

[sparky7718]

Give the kid a break, he made a vid, good for him. Cookie Monster sucks anyways, you can't understand a word..... so who cares?

[TheRealSonicYouth]

um death metal isnt in drop d! its in e flat!

[Bewarethe1]

Death metal is in flattend standard e.... but to all the haters, he just doesnt understand that hes playing thrash not death

[Leviskardsen]

If you think that sounds anything at all like Cowboys From Hell, you seriously need to train your ear better.

[mosirati]

DOUCHE BAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LEARN TO PLAY WITH YOUR FINGER TIPS JACKASS!!!!!!! AND HAVE SOME CONTROL WITH YOUR PICKING P.S METAL ISN'T THAT SIMPLE FUCK BAG... PPS FUCK U!!!

[wortho69lovesmen]

@mosirati  U MAD?

[theviolator23]

does anyone have tissue for my bleeding ears? If your gonna play crap at least least have decent tone, jesus butt-fucking christ.

[gneHnoraA]

Haha throughout this i imagined the part in Metalocalypse when Toki was playing hell crap and Skwisgaar Skwigelf explained how "He's slowly learning how to un-play the guitar."

[pontusnieminen]

Dimebag Darrell would turn around in his grave if he heard how you disgraced Cowboys from hell!

It's not even in drop-D, 'tard!

[joshua987x]

its soooooo freaking easy!

[atarig33k]

The cat at the end was the only half decent part of the video...my head hurts.

[eTYKE73]

Wanker

[TheBigAP13]

OR you can play anything else with more theory and make it sound better .......

[kymon117]

Hey! I'm your life!

I'm the one who takes you there

Hey! I'm your life!

I'm the one who cares

They! They betray!

I'm your only true friend now

They! They betray

I'm forever there!

[ThatGuyOverThere1009]

Beast and the harlot awesome song

[1MoistPalms1]

"It's so freaking easy ..." THATS WHAT SHE SAID

LEARN YOUR GENRES

[coolyo778]

drop D is for grunge basically lol

[alfredoQL]

taht sucked.

[ShakeZulaTheMicRula]

Someone's been listening to Avenged Sevenfold.

[seckusa]

**crickets**

[wyatt71]

who is six by

[DarkChaos53]

@wyatt71 all that remains

[wyatt71]

@DarkChaos53 thank you :)

[mathra55]

happy birthday

[jlazenby1]

Wow, that all sounded like shit! Drop D fucking sucks for one, you play like shit, too fast or too slow on every song and not even close to the right notes, what a fucking waste of time

[homersimpson587]

stop saying how easy it is! fuck thats annoying and just obnoxious.

this wasn't a lesson by the way either.

[T1O1O1X1T1O1X1I1C1]

if its so easy why was beast and the harlot 12 frets off....and avenged sevenfold is NOT, i repeat, NOT DEATH METAL! even when they did scream they werent death metal, not even close. you suck. go practice.

[EmeraldAzelf]

the riff from master of puppets played insanly shit by him

[SuperGuitarDaddy]

Your a fuckin idiot, practice your pinch harmonics

[dogkecha]

wtf? Poor Gibson Explorer. Put that fucker back in standard tuning and if you want to learn how to play "heavy metal", study up on some Dave Mustaine riffs. See how "insanely easy" it is for you.

I don't know that much about Death Metal, but the Death Metal I have heard is much, much lower tuned than tht. Shit, even Down which is stoner rock is in C or something like that.

[yemensv]

rock on? wtf

[nytjd911]

This is how you play any DEATH metal song. Tune to Drop D.... how many death metal bands play in drop lol Thats more the standard for metalcore

[metalman993]

@nytjd911 lamb of god plays in drop D ^^ I know that's not real death metal when you compare them to bands like obituary or behemoth, ... but they play metal ^^

[bruthor]

Haha, worst lesson ever. Its not just about making notes come out in a certain order youve gotta make them sound good too. Palm muting is a good place to start.

[ScreamingEye]

awesome :D

[jorgue680]

good guitar man but you play like a fucking retard... please give up with music and send me that guitar to make it sound you fucking medricre pig

pdt: youre a fucking poser, any of that riffs were death metal, i advise you to read what the fuck is death metal and how to play it because you know a shit of what youre playing...

[Switch1625]

You should give up

[IDiedForLove]

You're the pig that just shit all over metal. Wtg fagtard

[thetob33]

Noob

[hecknot14]

lol...

[punkr123g]

wow that sounded like gay ass slipknot poser bull shit

[guitara7x6661]

whoa gaiz beast and the harlot is deathmetal

kickass

[esenorteno]

its hilarious

haha he says its insanely easy at 1:45 yet hes outta breath

lmao!

[ilovestinalots]

this is just retarted..... it's sad that this is what the guitar playing world has come to.

[krisis99]

Oh...my...lord....what have you done. Why do you have no gain either....lol

[wyatt71]

say fuck and its not death metal smart one

[WannaScrap12]

do you know how to bend your fingers when you're playing? its like you're pressing down on the whole fret making your fingers stiff.

you're also fat.

[ciaran624]

hmm metal thats pushing it and you go on too much

[2irfir3]

its for you !!! for me no :/

Need metal in my brein dude !! and need shadow im my hands :P

[thychaos]

lol death metal? easy? good joke, bud.

[1992Vomberg1992]

Your little finger....if he doenst fly through the air, you will play little bit faster, because of the shorter distance to the freds...little tip ;)

[spiky95im]

your right, it IS really easy to fuck up songs. You need some technique. It's obvious that you're just flailing. You really need to learn how to play those songs if you're going to discredit them, too. You just massacred cowboys, and if you want to tell me you just played it as well as dimebag, then you need to rethink your decision to play guitar. Also, it doesn't sound like shit on a clean setting if you're actually playing properly.

[spiky95im]

your right, it IS really easy to fuck up songs XP. You need some technique, and an appreciation for music beyond your little blink-182 cave. If you can tell me that you just played cowboys as well as dimebag darrell, you should seriously rethink your life.

[JonnyMonster91]

lol. Huge faggot. Doesn't even know how to tune to Drop D the easy as fuck way.

[OXCerberusX0]

the bands u stated r not death metal.

[DicSlapTheClown]

was it really your birthday?

[drowe77]

I agree with the other comments, but hey you are a young teenager. I like your stuff somewhat but it is the "so easy" line that kills me. You made me laugh little dude.

[elatihc]

this is actually quite funny. His hands playing the first "riff" if you can call it that - are like flailing tentacles or something. and yes thanks for the tuning lesson lol

[codych07]

maybe you should take your long alien fingers and show off for your boyfriend

[angieloverboy32]

haha gos homes and stops tryings to fuchs wis guds musiks,yous suchs and kant plays for shits

[Acperience04]

You guys are asshats. Sure he's not outstanding but he probably is better than most of you lol. there ARE worse covers on youtube. Give it a rest.

Although I dont really like the discrediting of metal guitar. :/

[omgarealbigname]

Six is way off you idiot!

[PinkertonProductions]

i'm sorry but you know nothing about metal some of the best guitarists right now play metal. metal is not easy to play

[FearMyPants]

The video says metal, you say death metal and you play fagcore.

And you didnt even use distortion.

[ShanfredMetalface]

Fuck you metal is easy. You little gobshite you clearly know nothing, playing my some SiKth and then shut your goddamn mouth. You dont even play six properly, or well for the matter.

[Masterconker]

faget

[Bitchflakes666]

that does not sound like metal. that sounds like shit. could you pick more mainstream bands to ? go play some necrophagist and tell me how easy that is

[Gaston2k]

Did you use your pinky at all?

[Joeslipknot1]

ok at the end what tom morello ??? wtf??? and wtf?? is it so easy ???

[Puppets7]

Thanx man, now i know how to play my fave song. :D

[Puppets7]

Dude, your fingers r out of control!!!

[dannyboy472]

freakin sick

[nortelus]

i think it sounds good

[fruitfruit12]

you fucking suck man

[cipher619]

"Just play any of these notes"? Good job dick, you just named the 8 base notes (every note that ISNT a sharp or flat, unless youre in a flat tuning).

[kajobike]

"happy birthday"--very metal!

[skreaminmetal666]

Anything is easy when you play only the first string!! i think you moved away from it once or twice the whole fuckin video. Learn some real fucking metal.

[lahbl]

Tune it to drop D for death metal?

Lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lololololololololololololololo­lolololololol

[KIDWICKED369]

@lahbl actually job for a cowboy plays in drop d beleive it or not

[ChetterNugget]

@lahbl

Or drop C? lmfaoroftflmfaolafuckingbitch

[razrox13]

you sound horrible... dont ever insult metal with your horrible playing

[metallica04100]

im glad im not as bad as u; i wouldnt normally insult anyone for what level they are as we are all on the music path and i remember when i was there, but u sound like a retard when u think all metal is "so freakin easy" and just the same thing//u made one discovery on the path and u act like u know everything

[metalhammer1221]

dude u should never try to help anyone but ur self first i dont no what ur doing

[DyingFetusSkinless]

this an example of a kid who's mommy and daddy mbought him a guitar when he was little and he learned to play and had everything handed to him and doesnt know how to put himslef into the music and why everything he plays sounds so dull

[VampSlayer99]

try playing anything by nile or necrophagist

[Ln192]

Broski, you should focus on your direct playing instead of your speed... anyone can tremolo pick, but sounding good is more important.

[stillfalling07]

dude..... *face palm*

[MrsDeathbatVengeance]

i dont think that was beast and the harlot dude :L

[dontrlycare]

what does he mean by 3rd fret harmonic

i just dont really get what harmonic is

[aido1987]

@dontrlycare a harmonic is where you lightly touch the string without fretting it then pick the string. Try resting your finger directly over the 3rd, 7th or 12 fret without applying pressure then pick the string. The weird ringing sound you will hear is called a harmonic

[jtracer04]

that was not cowboys from hell dimebag just rolled over in grave

[FryLock42000001]

lol cowboys from shit XD, agreed and Beast and the Harlot was not played too well, six sounded alright but its not that easy man, you gotta learn the theory.

[streetskater03]

Not being mean, but I could barely hear a difference in an open string and another note. And what you demonstrated was easy, playing things sloppy as hell. All you did was palm mutes and single notes. Of course palm mutes are Metal, but it's way more than that. Now I'm not saying I'm the best guitarist, but I'm good for the time I put into playing guitar. It's not 'easy'. It takes time and dedication to learn the guitar, and to be honest it seems you've only been playing for a couple of months.

[WhoreRomper]

haha this aint death metal

[zchlyle]

Wow kid that was not even close to Cowboys from Hell. You need to go learn your shit before u insult one of the greatest of all time. R.I.P. Dimebag

[mightywarriorx]

This is the dumbest video I've ever seen. If you follow this "guide" you're going to be the most forgettable guitarist in the history of metal.

Stop making videos about your shitty white trash groove metal riffs, kid.

[rawmouseius]

its called scales

[SemiAndDelena]

wtf

[Zwitter101]

That Was No Where Beast And The Harlot... However... Six Wasen't That Bad

[kage2344]

Tone sounds like shit...

[kunito08]

yea that is very easy

are you retarded??

[FenderMetalShredder]

Uhhh bro... Try to learn "Future Breed Machine" by Meshuggah and THEN tell me metal is easy.

[MrJackWaters]

sorry but tool?

[neverlandneverfly]

lollmao that wont get you anywhere

[rawrlancer]

I agree with benzie cowboys from shit!.

[Fiddstx]

real death metal is from norway like Mayhem or Dark Funeral.

[ImaginativeBrowsing]

@Fiddstx

From poland.

Vader, Behemoth, frontside...

[Fiddstx]

@ImaginativeBrowsing

well europe in general

[ImaginativeBrowsing]

@Fiddstx

yeah more like it :)

[JamesHazBeHaiTyme]

@Fiddstx Mayhem isn't death metal.

It's black metal...

[Fiddstx]

@JamesHazBeHaiTyme Okay calm the fuck down.

[dobo12starks]

the beast and the harlot by ax7 is in no way DEATH MEATAL emphesis on death btw Six Feet Under or Even CC would be better

[Fistler01]

plz buy an Metal Master distortion petal and make an other vid that is so crap shit

but ur guitar is cool^^

[stayathome23]

it was useful information and to the people below me, if cowboys from hell isnt metal then idk wat metal is anymore. u shuldnt have said how "easy it was" so much because there is alot more to DM than that lol

[Feet4hands]

Attitude, attitude! I loved it, I don't think it was the best planned vid' on U Tube but hey who gives a shit! The guy tried and it was informative - sort of. The last 30 seconds had me in stitches. Rock on dude.

[spawnsc]

MY EARS MY EARS MY EARS!!! please just break your guitar in half that is not metal and get a real amp...

[grafpantoffel93]

if its so easy,

why are u playing it so sucky?,

[slaayerrism]

thx to guitar hero,rock band..etc now everyone is getting guitar's....learn to play real death metal..and never play Six again..and i think coldfire144 speaks for all of us in the sense of you bringing the hate by ur statement's

[coldfire144]

Not to hate on the lack of actual guitar playing, but honestly you kind of brought on the hate by saying "HOW EASY" it is to play any "DEATH METAL" song. You then went on and butchered a bunch of songs that were not even barely considered metal, let alone death metal. The worst of all being your attempt at All That Remains - Six, if you want to know what the song actually sounds like go over and listen to KillrBuckeye's cover, thats how you play it.

[jezzon2376]

lol, hey everybody (SCRATCH) wilster1 here... oh shit... restart.. LMAO

[yipyipyipi]

STFU haters

I bet most of you can't even play guitar.

Those of you who can probably suck.

He's fine, not famous, but he could be if he practiced.

[FREESHADY]

this is the worst shit i have ever heared

you call this death metal?

[AutumFalls1]

Faggot,, learn real dethmetal!! Try listining to whitechaple, suicide silence, a plea for purging, alert the sky, crown hill, royalist etc. And ur right it does sound like cowboys from shit. More like cowboys who suck ass

[Raginmonky]

@AutumFalls1, I read this, and I couldn't tell if it was hilarious, or if I was disappointed that another human wrote it. I always laugh at the people that start putting down all the bands you have to listen to for no reason. Yeah, I get it, you listen to the DEATH METALZ and stuff. Then you go on to say "more like cowboys who suck ass" which isn't even clever. I suggest you work on that to help add emphasis to your Youtube comments, or you'll be doomed to being "that guy".

[emergedband]

Don't want to be rude, but maybe you should learn some real death metal as well, from the examples you're giving i reckon you're one of those little hardcore kids who know nothing about REAL DM, but that's what i think...

No hard feelings though.. (i hope :) )

[benzie101]

that sounded more like cowboys from shit

[thatoneguy99100]

@benzie101 more like cowboys from disney land

[ZronZ]

@benzie101 couldn't agree more xD

[Jorge1509]

@benzie101

jajaja siiii!! q mier·?$ como suena!!

[tenfootgiant]

dude learn wat death metal is ill give you a hint it starts will cannibal

[Polyst3r]

well you just messing around..no technique just messing few bar chords and the sound horrible...If I could be you I will never put this video on..

[CasketImplosion]

Dude im sorry, but your tone and honestly your chops are not good. Dimebag is rolling over in his grave right now because he heard you butcher an essential Pantera song. And no death metal song is in Drop D man. D Standard at the least. And A7X and Pantera are not death metal.

[JayyBabes93]

Mate, i'd die to be able to play as good as you xD

Teach me please.

This is possibly the best videon i've seen :)

[araknoth]

thanks dude

[soultenebrae]

Tone is awfull and I don't ear any death metal riff in there.

[kugen931]

whatever..
