BTBAM - Selkies Sweeps

[TheWitchesbru]

Hands down the best cover of this on YouTube IMO.

[chikmgnt146]

Turn your metronome down haha

[BushPrintzle]

best rendition on all of youtube. sick job man!

[guitarfreak6011]

fucking gnarly.

[thisisacunt]

way to rip

[xkiller5]

Please give me the tabs or guitar pro!

[TheAGSTube]

You've got some really soulful licks in the beginning and the rest is flawless. I really enjoyed your phrasing. Keep it up and keep it br00tle!

[coogkiller]

fake!

[777RAD777]

beautiful playing. so clean! thats good looking guitar too! what is it?

[cjisindahouse1234567]

thats pretty sick dude! i heard you missed some of the high notes but oh well you shred

[xXxNOAHNATORxXx]

Wake me up when your done hypnotizing me with ur talent lol :)

Seriously though , you are spot Fu#king on !

[sk8ingrox1]

Some people just SHOULD NOT cover this song, especially the sweeps -.-

You, my friend, are not one of those people. That was sick man!

[Goatse64]

This song isn't that hard ._.

[okalov]

@Goatse64 Upload a vid of you playing it, then we'll see how hard it is. If you can do it half as cleanly as this guy did, then I will be surprised.

[YZFMX256]

i just cheesed like a motherfucker, jus like when i saw paul play this live, its just so tranquill and relaxing!

[jerey34]

im in fucking love

[youveseenthebitcher]

this is fucking crazy man. mad props to u buddy

[Pimpseatcake]

-sean zilla

[Conradbauer]

@Pimpseatcake Sean Zilla it would be an honor! your the f'n shizznay! MMMHHHMMM

[H1dd3nDrag0n]

fucking sick! were my exact words

[VegasPoker]

ahh fuckin hell dude that was amazing sounded really clean and epic

[Akerfeldtfan]

This is better than the original solo. Holy shit man, nicely done.

[theusednick]

OMG YOU FUCKING SHREDDED MY LIFE OFF MY SCROTUM JUST FELL TO MY FEET

[jonnydrums413]

eric johnson sounding run and resolve at the end, pretty cool! 

[alex16foamy]

God this was incredible. This is what a fucking cover should be like. You made the solo your own. TBH I prefer this to the original. Mad props.

[Kafoodles]

That's fucking metal.

[xAfroMetalHead1990x]

30 people play bass.

[ferociouspokemachine]

@xAfroMetalHead1990x Lol don't diss the bass dude... listen to Dying Fetus - Your Treachery Will Die With You. There's a bass sweep section in there.

[xAfroMetalHead1990x]

@ferociouspokemachine Hahahahah oh no, trust me dude, I have LOADS of respect for bass players, cuz they're hard to find, at least in my experience. I only know like 2 but they're both amazing.

[ferociouspokemachine]

@xAfroMetalHead1990x Hahah alright ;)

[WickedSteak]

Excellent improvisation!! subbed!

[dnkypncher10]

I love you..

[MyAssballs]

yes. love the improv!

[aaa8181]

a little sloppy at some parts but overall still give it 5*. badass guitar playing

[KingVJackson]

dude i know this video is fairly old but i need to get the tabs you used man this is so sick...you raped everypart of this solo...but ya if you get me the tabs for this id be more than happy...cheers.

[WalkinDude91]

@KingVJackson ....or you could use your ear to figure the notes out. Hell, there's a video RIGHT HERE that you could use to help you find the notes.

[Musicdudeyoutub]

Awesome shred. The one part at the end does sounds a lot like Eric Johnson.

[Phagedaena]

Nice one. The pentatonic bit at the end Sounds like Eric Johnson. Cheers

[pockthehairy]

Nice, shame about the quality. I swear this solo looks so easy but the fingering (haha) is fucking fidgity

[drumsallout]

you did it just as good as paul great job

youtube.com/watch?v=Ew96zlCBXC­E

[IamAnoob44]

you are most probably tuned to standard ??

[Ravenamps]

@IamAnoob44 No, he's a half step down, he adjusts to play it in the right key, but he's on the wrong frets.

[ltownrocker133]

Would this be a good song to learn if your just learning how to sweep?

[viper1991]

@ltownrocker133 JUST learning? probably not tbh.

[xXEckerdsXx]

very nice man.

[Wtsmyageagain]

I remember seeing this 2 years ago and how much I loved it. 2011 now and I still admire the melodic skill you have.

[markyoung266]

May i ask what kind of guitar you have in possesion?

[Wtsmyageagain]

@markyoung266 Dude, look at the comments.

[itsamystery94]

simply beautiful. no other way to do it. amazing solo to start; one of my favorites. but just played absolutely beautifully

[musicaws]

That was insane bro you got a talent, post more vids of anything that actually takes skill please, like that for instance I rarely see people that can post songs with difficult sweeps in them and you've done that so keep posting man!!

[Hannahontoast]

Awesome sweeps! The tempo in this song is faster than what you're playing, though.

[Conradbauer]

@Lessthanjake14 yes that's correct

[alcmiller1]

Best Selkies Sweeps I've ever seen on youtube. Hands down.

[jay39452]

best guitar playing i've seen in a while.. nice

[TheNvizzle]

you are better than me. is that a dragonforce shirt? you over did it a little for the feel of the song... but the playing is excellent

[whatokyea96]

Hey i don't know if you are into this band, but i was wondering if you could do a cover of Born of Osiris- Live like im real. And if you could, near the end where the legato kicks in, add your own way of playing it. Thanks :D

[ChainsawVsGod]

Madness!

[Xaeravoq]

this playing looks a lot better than the tabs ive been using. i cant find good tabs anywhere.

[a7xsuks657438374]

thats sick keep doing what you do cause your already sick as hell

[ABRAsylum]

Love that sweep riff. Simply awesome.

[frosty125845]

i watch this video like everyday.

[sjm98126]

Awesome playing! How do you like your quicksilver? Ive been considiring one, but being from CT and not having the ability to play one first is kinda discouraging me from buying one.

[oJinxx]

this is some flawless playing, dude!

and the guitar looks and sounds nice. but I will NEVER buy from Ed Roman, dude is a straight up crook...

[Stokum25]

How much was that guitar, around $2000? I've been looking at quicksilvers but cant find one under $1900.

[nightwhatchman]

I love these covers where people add their own flair. That's what covers are all about, am I right?

[RockstarShar]

How the fuck could you dislike this? It is golden

[allfortheglory44]

Sick Nasty dude, keep it up.

[ILYLan]

Very cool/......

[RyoDavis]

One of the best minutes of my life

[EasterDavy]

Better than the actual solo to be honest

[HeldThread]

FLAWLESS!

[almiester1234]

i shed a tear bro

[RoscoeKella]

Saw this as a random Recommended video and you're incredible. Good fucking job.

[xxskaterboixx06]

when doing the 5-string sweep with the tapping on the first sweep, after tapping the 22 then doing the decline/incline 3-string arpeggio, tap on the 20 then the 24 after. That is the correct way to play it. I LOVE how you added your own touch to the solo! Nice job man!

[bcbird]

Excellent solos - one of the best i've seen

[ZeroTheHate]

I love it! Make some more videos! :D

[scenepointjudge]

FLAWLESS.

[largemoose]

Good.

[kingofae]

i love blonde guitars!! is that a gibson or an ibenz, orr a les paul? idk rock not really my main bag

[rawkout]

what we wouldn't do for tabs...hehe awesome :)

[angmar11]

whats the gutiar make from the finish is to die for!

[irishman1133]

@Conradbauer noice

[GbalZZZ]

still cant stop wATCHING THIS VIDEO!

[Bitchflakes666]

their are some very good sweep ideas in this solo

[Saynotoscenesters777]

You sir are great! And is it just me or is that the most beautiful solo ever?

[NICK19641963]

any tab for this?plz/:P

[solosolo1234567]

what guitar is that?

[imrockn328]

keep doin work man, you kick ass.

[Knightfightateleven]

amazing dude!

[vengefall]

sweeps it good.

[xWalleRx]

Uh Mazin cover.

[DeathMetalAngel123]

Sweep picking is cool, but some people praise it like it's the holy grail of guitar playing. It's just annoying sometimes how people get so excited over it all the time. I'd rather hear a very melodic and well played/executed slow solo than sweep picking rape.

[2bored4school]

@DeathMetalAngel123 don't listen to smashface then xD fucking pure shredcore. haha.

[ProgressiveMadness1]

@DeathMetalAngel123 I agree sweeps picking is easy breezy once you get the motion down. People tend to forget once they learn it that sweeps are more then just a technique.

[NekGuitar]

with mine, 1000 thumbs up, congratulations =D you deserved it

[vdtom]

to be fair i was just being a troll. it IS at a slower speed for some bizarre reason, though it wasnt that bad. rock on conrad.

[Conradbauer]

The axe I'm using is a custom ed roman quicksilver: spalted maple top, korina body and a solid ebony neck w/ custom seymour duncs. And I'm runnin it all through a Mesa boogie mark II C+.

[LessthanJake14]

@Conradbauer "Custom Seymour Duncans" being the Blackbacks, yeah?

[gimartinee]

@Conradbauer Are you satisfied with the Quicksilver?

[gimartinee]

@Conradbauer Are you satisfied with the Quicksilver?

[greenpumpkin96]

amazing is not the word

[iLyykMuzik]

As much as it pains me to say this... I think Selkies may have actually been improved o.O

[NathaNTPham]

what kind of guitar is that?

[jguid492]

@NathaNTPham Dean Hardtail

[blind329]

dude awesome interpretation and mad skills

keep it up

[vdtom]

me and a bunch of my friends are looking at these sort of videos. why are you playing at half speed? we all heard that mistake btw, you can't escape. i meant the one in the sweeps, not all the other ones.

[GilbertusesanIbanez]

@vdtom Umm.... perhaps because its his playing... and his video... You ever think of that? So what if he made a mistake. God it must be hard to live a life of complete incompetence... Clearly your nothing more than a mere troll. So why don't you and your "friends" compare your penis sizes and firgure out whats wrong with them instead. Oh and btw this guy did a pretty damn good job... Thanks for the upload!! really enjoyed it!!!

[redfoxskater]

@vdtom lol That first sentence had nothing to do with anything.

Anyway, nice axe. It sounds like eric johnson.

[AgnatKaHAHA]

metronome moves. nice. haha !

[skatefallen15]

nice to see someone who actually uses a metronome, also great cover! I'm looking forward to the day my sweeps are clean enough that I can post a cover of this

[boobiesarekewl123]

I love how a beautiful cover of an amazing guitar solo by an amazing band can be turned into an argument about the word "nigga". Come on guys, pay attention to the video and argue about this shit on your own channels.

[iiJameeeees]

dudeeee, where did you get the tab for this?? I have seen alot of tabs but none are right, also, what Scale is Paul playing in the solo? if anyone could answer it would be a big help

[blake2112]

That was too smooth man

[sharkjaws457]

You are amazing dude

[pekegansito]

Awesome man !!!.....what guitar are you using?...sounds amaizing

[xxmcpxx]

[lectwar]

[raptor212]

[grant131423]

i love this man!

[coheedandcambria91]

holy crap dude, you are incredible. you have so much feel during this song, its smooth and absolutely amazing. great job, keep up the work!

[Intodeathmetal24]

incredible job dude.

[sk8rpimp68]

Very well played..... BTBAM would be quasi proud, haha no for real good job.

[MansourtheAmazing]

...... fucking beautiful

[hiimbobo]

Does anyone else hear the Serrana arpeggios during the sweep? And you are incredibly, but i think you know that by just being able to play that sweep cleanly.

[seventimesealed]

damn dude i love this video the most because you play with a shit ton of feel

[OmniscientVirtuosity]

This is special... Wow, so much better than the original. (0:01-0:28) the phrasing is just so pure and emotional. I love this.  Just Bravo

[XPwnerX112]

@OmniscientVirtuosity ehh I wouldn't go that far. But it was pretty damn good

[grant131423]

so sick dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Phagedaena]

Nice Playing

[xxTDWPxD00dxx]

[GbalZZZ]

[Hybrid138]

[markus0neill]

i am sooo high and the way u ended it frightened me

[MrNicklikesmusic]

[Raffael900me]

@MrNicklikesmusic dead on eric johnsony, sick lick and amazing musicians

[seventimesealed]

[pilotenhandboek]

[TeddyxGrams]

@MrNicklikesmusic Damn you! now I crave Eric Johnson again! Lol

[sakrem89]

I happen to be high as well and this is fucking sick! You made it seem like it's so easy! I'm a drummer but I love seeing guitar cover vids and stuff! You did an awesome job niggaaaahhh!

[Ipodtouchftwz]

@sakrem89 he's not a nigger, I mean come on.. you CLEARLY see his that his hands are, in fact, white

[sakrem89]

@Ipodtouchftwz Yeaaa no shit bro! Of course I know he's not black! I meant niggah as in dude or bro! Get your facts straight before you start talking crap

[aejt]

@sakrem89 You said niggah, which means nigger, which means a black man. Get your facts straight.

[nutinurmacaroni]

@aejt You're an idiot. Fact 1: Nigga is not used as a derogatory term in ebonics or modern English. Fact 2: You're a moron. Now, quit trolling.

[aejt]

@nutinurmacaroni So you're saying nigga isn't the same as nigger except for the fact that all cool rappers on mtv use it? OK.

[nutinurmacaroni]

@aejt You can't be that stupid. How old are you?

Nigga can be used slangily as bro, homie, buddy, etc.

[aejt]

@nutinurmacaroni So you're saying nigga has nothing to do with the word nigger? OK.

[nutinurmacaroni]

@aejt No, I'm saying that the context in which he was using 'nigga' was not what you are assuming.

[Juandisimo]

@nutinurmacaroni Go up to a bunch of black dudes and say nigga. Then get back to me.

[nutinurmacaroni]

@Juandisimo Lol, I live around plenty of black people and wiggers who all use the 'nigga' so shut the fuck up. Moron.

[Juandisimo]

@nutinurmacaroni Haha You're an idiot. Wiggers don't matter and if your black friends let you say it that means you can only say it around them. I'd like to see you say it around my friends.

[sakrem89]

@aejt this nigga...

[sakrem89]

I happen to be high as well and this is fucking sick! You made it seem like it's so easy! I'm a drummer but I love seeing guitar cover vids and stuff! You did an awesome job niggaaaahhh!

[sakrem89]

I happen to be high as well and this is fucking sick! You made it seem like it's so easy! I'm a drummer but I love seeing guitar cover vids and stuff! You did an awesome job niggaaaahhh!
