[Vorbisis]

Nice cover :D.

[grahamzandah]

@kllun69 Nope...pretty sure we're not.

[RonBurgundyBitches]

FUCK YA MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!.......nice

[Zombie1990]

awesome cover! what guitar is that?

[MrBrentCrude]

Hell yes! Nice work. Kurt writes some great riffs. Now, if you can find a friend who can play drums like Ben Koller you'll be all set.

Many kudos to you. I could not pull that song off with my guitar.

[soadek1]

Good job, mate! : )

[Crow667]

Awesome cover man and that's a sweet guitar.

[wooofums]

I hate it when people label converge as shit. There are plenty worse bands out there. I love me some converge. I also enjoy lots of other stuff, wolf parade, pavement, shiner, tears for fears, etc. People need to stop acting all "holier than thou" and just enjoy music simply for the sake of enjoying it. That is unless you listen to nickelback, then you're seriously fucked.

[siire]

what up, good job dude! and even better band!

[afanofyou]

this is the shit. 

[Andragon90]

Badass! Dig the angle of the pups.

[ajgerman13]

Drop C

[smokeit13]

tight.

bravo.

[ChAllanz]

Whoa good shit. Tabs????

[Coalesce1982]

Just one fucking word: BRILLIANT!

[lansky111121]

this song is just a masterpiece. i play the drums and although it is not that technical, the switching time signatures are amazing. you are an amazing guitar player too. good job.

[jonnymustang86]

good cover dude. don't really understand what the dude below me is talking about. converge is one of the most creative and talented bands still doing what they do best. who gives a shit if the kid wasn't impressed.

[smackmeoffforawhile]

you Genius..

[dagunator]

great job

[IamTheGetty]

whats the tuning?

[iampalpal]

@IamTheGetty drop c I think

[kevin2849]

GREAT JOB SIR

[punkmosphere]

Thanks a lot man! I've nailed it now, through your vid. Better than gp5.

[timewaste79]

@grahamzandah How can you possibly know what music I'm into?... get a life moron.

[trannyguy8000]

@timewaste79

this dude just trolls converge videos. ignore him.

[grahamzandah]

@grahamzandah Im not saying I know all the shit you listen to. Just Converge is not good. You're a pretty damn good player and you should use your talent to do other way cooler shit.

[countmeoutHC]

@grahamzandah

are you fucking retarded or something?

[grahamzandah]

@countmeoutHC Yes I are wetarded. URR GEHH. DOn MAk Fun of Meh Forz iT.

[Epitagh]

@grahamzandah ...Its metalcore, shut up.

[grahamzandah]

@Epitagh Good guitar player. Terrible band.

[shredhead667]

@Epitagh Its Mathcore, metalcore is shit. i.e. A7X, BFMV, and other equally dreadful bands!!!

[TheWoodish]

@grahamzandah Where do you live.

[anormalnick]

@grahamzandah how can yous say that? he plays in that way cause he IS surely influenced by converge..

YOU ARE THE DUMBEST GUY IN THE INTERNET..

MOTHERFUCK MORON

[grahamzandah]

@anormalnick "In the internet"? And I'm the dumb one? 

[anormalnick]

@anormalnick I come from other country PEDAZO DE SUBNORMAL

[grahamzandah]

@anormalnick Maybe you shouldn't respond to my comment then. If you don't know English, don't try to talk to me.

[anormalnick]

@grahamzandah If I dont know English at all, How can you answer me?

Do you have telekinesis?

[grahamzandah]

@anormalnick You can speak it, but you can't hold a very intelligent conversation with it.

[anormalnick]

@grahamzandah Pues comete una mierda entonces..

[grahamzandah]

@anormalnick I'm sorry, I do not speak you language. Therefore, I will refrain from responding with hostility until we are both on the same level.

[anormalnick]

@grahamzandah Shut the fuck up and listen to CONVERGE!!!!!!!! hahahaha...

its ajoke ..I understand what you say..pero tu no puedes entender lo que yo digo..

Es un gran putada la verdad..

See you in other channel video.

[sigfridoybrunilda]

@grahamzandah ??? seems that you like like lamb of god.. stfu.

[grahamzandah]

@sigfridoybrunilda Aww...you mad about it? Are you mad that Lamb of God is more talented than Converge. But then again, Green Day is more talented than Converge...

[Coheed777Anberlin]

@grahamzandah Anyone who thinks Lamb Of God or Green Day is more talented than Converge need to be promptly punched in the dick/and or Vagina.

[LetsGetHighOnMorris]

@Coheed777Anberlin Definitley not, but who is anyway. Lamb of God still kicks ass nonetheless, esspecially early LOG.

[xGimmeaJ]

@Coheed777Anberlin Green day, yes but Lamb of God is super talented you can't deny that.

[lolh4x]

@grahamzandah Oh and I suppose your taste is music is godlike? 

[grahamzandah]

@lolh4x Why yes it is! Thanks for noticing.

[Manegalol]

nice, you are good. and also nice quality i see.

[AZ7002]

You rock!

[ramuthraGW]

absolutely awesome man! wish i could play it ^^

[kralle333]

i bit too slow i think

[MetalLink1979]

Good job homes, very well done.

[JeromeKillsFascists]

That's cool, and nice guitar! Converge just isn't meant to be played on sterotypically "Metal" guitars. Drop c?

[jamesyxpoo]

absolutely wrong, i can hear his guitar extremely well hes just playing it really solid that it blends with the backtrack guitar.

[rexxan2k]

guitar sound is too low and backtrack too loud.

[Thawist]

I love this song and Converge. I enjoyed your cover.

What guitar are you playing?

Does anyone here have an idea?

[Cbgb1204]

Awesome, where'd you get the tabs dude?

[iTotallyShred]

good shit dude that fuckin' ruled nice legato slides and transitions too. CONVERGE!!!!!

[eCellStudios]

this song is really a masterpiece. it's so genius melodic but still typicall converge in every riff. amazing. and you played it real great.

[neppah]

Tab please!!!

[daiselol]

@neppah theres a tab on ultimate guitar thats mostly the same as hes playing it.

[failguitarlol]

nicely played man! so clean! fucking nice. 5 stars!

[PukeBucket]

impressed

[borntohula]

well done, way outta my league, lol.

[BraydonSzafranski]

This was well done.

[DarthNader11]

I'm sorry, it just really bothers me that you play with your thumb wraped around the strings like that.

[heavyguitarjammer]

@DarthNader11 it's a style. nothing wrong with it

[DarthNader11]

I was taught by every instructor I have ever had that your thumb should only rest ontop of the neck when bending. it is bad posture just because it cripples your stretch especially anything in the high E and B string's area. I'm also going to venture to guess this guy was likely self taught.

[BenDy994]

Lol, I don't know why you were thumbed down so much. It is a bad posture, indeed. And the fact that he is self taught makes the cover all the more impressive. And most metal guitarists and hardcore guitarists I know are self taught, so what's wrong with that?

[DarthNader11]

Maybe that many people rest their thumbs ontop of the neck and think I'm hating on them haha. I still don't think its a bad cover hes just lucky nothing required him to play anything on the higher strings in this song.

[whothehellareu5]

this is amazing dude

[nfg0716]

Okay, I was expecting nothing out of this, but, you're really good.

[dkane411]

lol want someone to attempt a drum cover :P and live to tell the tale

[Trollfresser]

Awesome cover mate!

[thelivingfire]

fucking kick ass

[dragssk8]

Nice Work !

Where did you get the tab ?

[RUDEFUSO]

Sweet!!! look at me:

/watch?v=owr12Qsi_ZY

[timmythetuba]

SICK!

loved it

[incrediblekataplonsk]

fucking sick man, great cover

[xodosxilxes]

I think in the break he does unison bendings, but great, could you write the tuning in the info please? I´m too lazy to test from the video :)

[jvanzoost]

fucking sick dude... props... you should do drop out...

[Stabeeee]

Kick Ass Awesomeness!

[darcymetal]

what guitar is that?

[chincheese]

Excellent.

[BLJUKS]

Sick

[kolakosky]

ACE!

[jms1791]

FUCKIN' AWESOME!

[Aparashi]

Why does your guitar have AIDS?

[xTheOxx]

Je m'attendais au pire, mais crisse, tu torches!

[timewaste79]

Cool, un queb! Merci man...

[Buzzboy339]

@xTheOxx Esti de tarbanak de calisse! Ok j'ai fini de sacrer! ;) Mais c'est vrai qu'il est bon!

[deadjackass]

AWESOME! can you tab it?) please

[musicmadness103]

[VinceFull]

awesome !

[SilenTSicK]

great work, great song

[joshcaprai]

TAB?!

[jacgsun]

Nice sound

[TheTrueHellMaster]

Great great, i listened to your cover several times, and i love it !

[vbfl920]

This song IS a masterpiece!!!!

[dwreck]

no way dude.... kurt said that no one plays his songs properly. did you figure out his tunnings?

[JohnnySniper47]

nicely done dude. Guitar kinda looks like Jack White's old one.

[yimpat]

too good, playin' it really clean!You should tab it for dorkus malorkus like me.

[selwoc21]

great job brah

[Megamaniac610]

seriously what guitar is that?

[timewaste79]

It's a Gretsch TK-300.

Apparently, the company won't admit they made these... I find it's a cool guitar.

[babygage2108]

@timewaste79 i agree

[nirvana1620]

can you please tab this out, you have it perfect

[crassisdead]

Great job. Looks a lot harder than it sounds.

[zepmpereira]

what guitar is it?...i like it...

i tried to play this song, it's not easy...i made it, but i had to try a bunch of times lol

props to you

[mommadeathface]

that was really good. note for note perfection. how many tries did this take you?

[timewaste79]

'bout 10 ;-)

[ExpansiveHeart77]

Daaaamn. Nice.

[carndawg]

they always play in c

[zachiswayposi1]

That's not true. No Heroes and Plagues are both in AGCFAD, as well as a few other songs I'm sure. Most everything Petitioning and back is standard or drop D.

[carndawg]

yeah i take it back... i remember the saddest day is tuned in D... im almost certain though most of jane doe and axe to fall is C

[KareJau]

Great work, thanks a bunch!

[Anvilpants]

do they always play in C?

i'm trying to find out converge's tuning

but i thought kurt always changes his tuning from song to song but i saw them live and he just used the same guitar without tuning. so i'm guessing it's either C or C sharp

[ZephyR18777]

nice work man

[FastrTHNu]

drop D?

[wakeupandskate]

What kind of amp are you using? Great tones and great playing man! I love this song.

[timewaste79]

Mesa V-Twin rackmount preamp... Marshall 9200 power amp... Mesa 2x12 cab w/Vintage 30. It's basically a Mesa tone, not a Rectifier though.

[FastrTHNu]

i mean tuning wise.

Its eaiter drop D, C# or C or at least my ears say so.

Drop D seems to high.

I have yet to sit down next to my computer with my guitar.

[XVonGrimmX]

Jesus H. Christ

Fucking ace ma

[hadhayosh]

nice cover, but isn't this riff played with tapping? i'm figuring out the tab and i'm quite sure that kurt taps there instead of thrill picking.

[timewaste79]

i think it's played using strickly hammer-ons from the open G-string... I tried playing it that way but I couldn't do it powerfully enough to my taste...

[douggyfrreshh]

wow you really got the tone dead on

[hiimjosh123]

I think Kurt Ballou is using pull offs not trem picking based on the sound of the notes. Still really good stuff

[timewaste79]

You're right... I just couldn't play it that way. ;-)

But I'm pretty sure the notes are right

[fredderycks]

hey men

do you have a a guitar tabs o

writing a tab ??

[timewaste79]

Sorry but making this vid was tedious enough... I think you can figure it out by yourself though :-)

IMHO, playing by ear is the best way to learn...

Good luck!

[xpissonyourfacex]

man, great job

[ClankTheRobot]

fuck....you beat me to it...nice job...you know what you're doing (a youtube rarity)...eh, maybe I'll do a video for this anyway...its fun to play...check out my converge covers...are you in a (converge influenced) band, hopefully?

search for Alarmcaster on Myspace to hear my band...

[Jaywasright]

Somewhere Kurt Ballou is shaking his head. Pretty sick guitar player though.

[thinreaper]

nice cover man, good job

[moshthiscity]

FUCKING PERFECT :D!

[mosmooh]

god you're good! you should make tabs for this one

[christieg5]

sick
