Betcha Can't Play This with Brendon Small

[metalbeast763]

FUUUUCK!!!!!!

[ctuliebs]

I can totally play that, but it's a cool ass riff

[xuru9999]

Brendon Small is a douche, just in general -.-

[aqueenowlbee]

i would'nt want to play that or listen to it. it is worse than rap. because people can actually play an instrument and choose to play it wrong.

[MannyB92]

@aqueenowlbee What constitutes you to say whether or not he's playing an instrument right or wrong? that's a bit biased of you wouldn't you say, there's all different kinds of genres of music and he just happens to be playing something you wouldn't find likable, just because you don't like it doesn't mean hes playing it wrong idiot

[aqueenowlbee]

@MannyB92 so if i got a guitar, sat it on my lap, and starting hittting all the strings open, and sang along with it. you say that constitutes music as long as the person playing it thinks it sounds good. yeah you must be a democrat. or a teenager.

[MannyB92]

@aqueenowlbee Yup it would actually, it prob wouldn't be good but none the less its something, you can make some sort of tune or rhythm with the open strings. But to see you bring political affiliation into this just shows your one of the idiotic republicans, who instead of intelligently go into something with logic or reason you go at it this way; I dont like it, or get it so it MUST BE BAD. And I'm 19, how does it feel to have a "kid" make you look stupid? ;3

[aqueenowlbee]

@MannyB92 yes you could make something up by hitting open strings but not in standard tuning. no, im not a republican. but you are a teenager like i said. and the fact that you said idiot republican shows im right a second time. and about logic and reason i am using those tools which is why people are getting upset with me. you justify peoples action by feelings, not facts. and if your reading comprehension is poor i will tell you. you didnt make me look stupid. re-read slowly.

[MannyB92]

@aqueenowlbee Nurrr i no understand yourrr words MWYAHHHH

[aqueenowlbee]

@MannyB92 genau. verpiss dich hundin.  und, auch saugst mir.

[Sicvicious]

[ppmoscadebar]

Monster!!!!

[ostritchman101]

Bet you can't play anything else by Brendon Small either...cuz he removes all tabs for his songs online. Prick :)

[TheHamishbatten1995]

@ostritchman101 So he can sell you the song books.

[cryptosporidiom]

Makes other episodes look dildos.

[shenmoney]

I'm just starting to play guitar, and I'm hoping that I will soon be able to move my fingers this fast. Brendan is a beast.

[IMAPEEONYOUMAN]

This song is called.. bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.. I'm in.. bzzzzzzzzzzz.. and uh.. bzzzzzzzzz... I think, again.. bzzzzzzzzz.. Ugly scales together.. bzzzzzzzz..

[rayraybomb69]

[rayraybomb69]

[iEpicFail247]

damn those strings are so effing thick!!

[headmonsterzero69]

WHY would I want to play that???

[IMAPEEONYOUMAN]

@headmonsterzero69 Because it's the shit.

[S33k66D3STR0Y]

he needs a noise gate!!!

[AnarchistDude666]

i noticed that almost all his songs are tuned in C

[cracker27]

I think I see a Vox Satchurator in the background

[madawgthejuggalo123]

i thoughts he was musicsly dislexkiique'>P';

[ReLysdexic]

@madawgthejuggalo123 Only Skwissgaar and Toki are haha.



[sickgringo007]

Dear Brendon

You do all the instrumental lines of Dethklok, a band that sounds so much more awesome than all kinds of real bands out there, yourself plus the vocals. Also, you do multiple completely different sounding voices in Metalocalypse. You, sir, are allowed to sound like a cocky jerk.

[ubermedic]

haha this guy is such an asshole, but whatever, he is Dethklok so its cool

[Jakeobk]

PULL THE PLUG!!

[goathead38]

dont*

[goathead38]

[XavierDrake]

He looks like toby from the office

[Metalmanmick13]

Wowee! I'd likes to stands on dats guitar

[Jarlaxle51686]

.. with people-- with people-- Don't put your finger on-- Don't-- I'm not finished talking! Soo yeah.

I fuckin' laughed so hard. HAHAHA

[UFCfanboy7898]

jazz 3 pick right?

[HypnotikNinja2]

Man, he makes that stretch look easy. Also seems like I've been playing it wrong. :\

[jordanblythe104]

i like that guy

[psalvacion]

lol..i think??0:52

[ntbillie]

What he actually meant to say at 0:05 was 'Not to sound like Alexi Laiho but I becha can't play this..'

[SatansVlog]

@ntbillie lolol

[zach99998]

dude plays like a mad cunt

[psalvacion]

lol ''i think'' 0:52,1:02

[psalvacion]

METAL on a leas paul dosentt sound right

[Ledgy91]

Les Paul + Marshall... Mr Small you are not Slash... you are a hell of a lot more metal... stick to Krank :)

[ShortFingeredShreder]

Wow, he managed to make a Les Paul plugged into a JCM 2000 sound like complete shit!

[MFHCFH]

@shreddernuo It's also comes down to personal preference =P, just saying. I appreciate how awesome line6 spiders are, and I know they are FREEKIN' SWEET! But I prefer my old JCM 900, nothin' like bein' a dirty bastard ;D

[avsrule247]

@shreddernuo I have astro headsets, are they good for guitar?

[mistad00m]

@shreddernuo

very brittle, flat, boring tone from those amps.

no harmonic overtones, string response, or anything.

no tubes.

maybe to your ears those amps sound good.

[GeneralGiantPanda]

@shreddernuo You mean Nevermind? Nevermore is what the raven says in Poe's story lol. Or I might be stupid. Either way, I agree with the rest.

[piglatinpoet]

hey hey now.. what's with all the guitarguments?

[ThisIsBloodMoney]

He looks likes regular jacks offs but is guitars god.

[mobshooter]

Skwizgar?

[birdie1991777]

@shreddernuo not to bash you but one of the amp models on a line6 is a marshal just an fyi so nobody will give you shit in the future im not here to fight just inform

[DOWNandGONE]

@shreddernuo line 6 spider IV series is probably the best sound out, but the marshall sound does work with a lot of metal.

[nausea87]

get a seven string !

[ChaosHero17]

@nausea87 Idiot.

[nausea87]

@ChaosHero17 weak argument...

[nausea87]

@ChaosHero17 weak argument...

[ChaosHero17]

@nausea87 Not.  More strings does not = cooler, better, or more shredding.

[BeavisNacho]

Hey Skwisgaar, how come that buzz only when you hold the guitar ??

[therealskwigelf]

i's totally's can plays this, and i hopes when you trys and you cants, you go to a dark rooms and hangs yourself in shames.

[GuitarMosher101]

@DJ11726 try Ernie Ball's Coated Skinny Top Heavy Bottom strings. they work for me all the way down to drop B.

[DJ11726]

I wish i could find a string set up that seems good for that tuning. No string company seems to have heavy bottom light top for that type of tuning.

[CrayfishInMyAnus]

FUCKING BRUTAL

[Morbidjeff666]

he should release a tab book 4 his home movies guitar licks and wut not  thatd b fun 2 have

[Diehard804]

that goldtop is sooo sexy

[TheAngel0fMeth]

That's easy, I could play that. Nice riff, but easy.

[boardking123]

why isn't paul gilbert in one of these?

[DeekyDicawdo]

@boardking123 His Betcha Can't Play This are his instructional videos

[CallMeIshmaelGuitar]

actually it goes into 6\4, not 5 :p way to know your own riff.

still amazing though.

[goskateboard20]

Sooooo Fucking beast.....

[redneckredemption246]

Yeah I bet I can't play this because I don' t feel like setting up my guitar to tune that low.

[vibonacci]

0:30

huge stretch man.. luckily its with the natural strongest and most limber finger.

[ArtificialRed666]

Wow I'm surprised Brandon Small didn't retract this video due to copyright and make people buy it.

[OnyxBeastGuitar]

@ArtificialRed666 Exactly my thought, haha xD

[oldme616]

betcha i cant make a les paul sound that metal.

[CyValkarion]

@shreddernuo Laney.

[ForgotteMemories101]

@shreddernuo I prefer good ole Randall amps myself lol

[AsILayDyingxx1]

i hate when you ppl complain about their set up and then boast about your setup like wtf chuck

[TheBlackScarecrow]

HOME MOVIES!!!!!!

[CardgamesonYoshi]

dear brendon small

No I can't and get your dealership with Krank back

[projectspillman2]

betcha i can!!!! cause i can

[usedtobeemo]

even though it's a shit amp it still sounds alright.

[ShoreStudios]

@shreddernuo Dude your so affected by one comment, I didnt cry because you ragged on tube amps I could careless if you like tube amps or solid state but to say Marshall is crap when you're using a Line6 Spider IV is just blasphemy man. Modelling amps get close but are still a far cry from the real thing, there is a reason old analog technology doesnt die. I like how you are just adding a bunch of stuff too, did I say not playing a Marshall would make you suck, FAIL TROLL FAIL MORE.

[ShoreStudios]

@shreddernuo Nope I'm not a "tube guy" I vary between tube, solid state and directly out of my POD XT Live...I would post my Soundcloud but I don't feel like having a bunch of randoms on it. Its just impossible to get the same natural distortion off a transistor then a tube because the transistor doesn't overdrive it just starts clipping, not to mention you cant replicate the sound of a saturated power tube starting to distort, try turning ANY tube amp past 6 something 80% of owners don't do.

[ShoreStudios]

@shreddernuo my 15W Marshall Haze will walk over your Line6 all day any day, that is unless you like the horrible clipping sound of a solid state amp.

[ShoreStudios]

@shreddernuo Yeah what do you plug into a Line6 Spider 3 solid state boat anchor? I guess all the top rockers in the world that have used Marshall's since the 60's are wrong in comparison to some kid living in his parents basement...totally believable.

[H8crewDethRroll]

Gibson sucks.

[DylanB003]

@shreddernuo smash a jcm800? the second most popular marshall and probably the most used metal amp ever?

[adinrulez12345]

@shreddernuo the new dime amp sounds amazing ive played it. replicates his sound and creates unique ones really well

[smaratelj]

@adinrulez12345 If the new Dime amp replicates his sound... how can it sound amazing?

[Nuerotoxin007]

@shreddernuo marshalls are shitty?!?!?!

[JonteTheMan1]

What does he mean with "13 4 and then into 5?" :) Sorry for asking.

[andresbarela]

@JonteTheMan1 Time signature?

[Raive00]

wtf is that ampli?

[holyfire001202]

yeahh, i'd love to take somebody up on that bet... munruthel is reallllly right

[munruthel1]

not to sound cocky, but this is by far the easiest one

[271189a]

fuck that last stretch, that was immense

[Acecombatgamertwo]

DETHSUPPORT

[nsnBORN2KILL]

Get a fuckin noise gate... Ur better than that.

[Somethingproductable]

You bet I want to

[thephil69]

I didnt like Death Metal till you did it haha. C standard...so unique! so perfect!

[sk8er4life00001]

PULL THE PLUG

[razeal18]

I donts thinks sos Mr Smalls

[rumblejumble101]

the hum... IT BURNS!!

[JohnTDockum]

I watched all the covers and none sounds as clean as brendon small

[killking72]

i think it's awesome how he has no idea what he's doing when he slows it down for other people to learn it

[coltsfanca]

For those pricks who are bragging that they can play this and that Brendan Small isn't that good...trying creating/writing something like this and then go hang yourself.

[jBPxArkana]

@coltsfanca theres a phrase on the internet when people say that shit and its, make a video or your lying, i could say i can play stairway backwards, but theres no way of proving that most of them are talking out of their arses because if you said prove it make a video they would say something like, i don't need to prove it :P

[LeapingDodo]

@coltsfanca but i practiced so hard, now i cant brag i cant play this. Brendon is doing it on fucking youtube! :O

[coltsfanca]

@LeapingDodo hahaha I'm not talking about the guys who actually take lots of time to practice and then post a video. It's the people who post a video and say stuff like "Oh it only took me 5 minutes...wasn't THAT hard"

[LeapingDodo]

@coltsfanca im just fucking with ya, still cant play the fast part, but honestly i only practiced this 5 minutes. am still being busy fucking over street musicians with a melodica :D ... and work... busy busy. i should be sleeping now >_>

[CoyotesNeverWin]

@coltsfanca brendon small is pretty good lol and dont dis his creativity for sure, comedy and music together takes mad skill

[DeathToMayo]

@coltsfanca Lol are you implying that it's difficult to write like this? He's very very talented in the sense that he's a comedian but not particularly so for a musician. No disrespect but it wouldn't be difficult to write like this. Maybe it's just the it's a style I'm fairly used to.

[coltsfanca]

@DeathToMayo Not really, it's more like an acknowledgment to the time and effort it took him to write/perform/produce the music than looking at the tabs, playing the song, putting it on youtube and saying "pfft, that only took me like 5 minutes!"

[DeathToMayo]

@coltsfanca Well yeah it takes more time to write any music (except maybe some punk) than it does to actually play. That's how it works. I'm just saying this isn't all that inventive. It's pretty basic as far as writing metal goes if you ask me. Yeah it's not quite as basic as a lot of fucking Metallica sections but it's far from hard to come up with.

[coltsfanca]

@DeathToMayo Very True, but given Brendan's situation of running a TV show, things are a little more rushed on his part. A band like Metallica can make an album and take 2 years to write other great songs. But Brendan doesn't really have that kind of time when he has to fill up TV slots with the show.

[DeathToMayo]

@coltsfanca I completely agree with that. I don't doubt his ability. He can play. This piece of music doesn't show off what he can do. I'm just arguing with whether this would be difficult to write.

[LesPaulSunburst92]

@DeathToMayo

It takes a lot of musical talent to graduate the Berklee College of Music. So if you think you can do better, why don't you try and get in there as well as graduate. Good luck....

[DeathToMayo]

@LesPaulSunburst92 I don't doubt his ability. He can play. This piece of music doesn't show off what he can do. I'm just arguing with whether this would be difficult to write.

[enjoipanda95]

maybe its just the recording audio but, betcha cant find a better tone

[ScottRichardStoller]

Man Small is cuh an arrogant asshole.... but he fucking shreds like a god!

[DarkDecade619]

Be nice to eachother.

Seriously.

[0ConfrontTheCarnage0]

@shreddernuo your calling a marshall head and cab a piece of shit? you obviously haven't played one.

[sbuba90]

That Paul is sooo sexy

[nsnlive42]

In Soviet Russia, ... crap i cant come up with one!!

[chad88019]

@nsnlive42 in soviet russia...one comes up with you lol

[juank9191]

Wow its hard to make a jcm sounds bad!



[000metalhead000]

@juank9191 But the 800 series has done a great job on sounding awful. It's not the guitar, the JCM's of nowadays aren't what they were.

[indiaf4]

the quality of the amp is like shit

[boxtrap21]

@Herrjames1 you're a fucking genius.

[Peetree777]

I would love to play pull the plug in a hospital ward

[zoraliciousful]

@Peetree777 *Dethsupport

[Peetree777]

@zoraliciousful shit, didnt notice i did that

[ray625164]

@shreddernuo hes using a marshall jcm 800, thats a nice amp ahhaha

[boxtrap21]

Get a metal guitar not a damn Gibson.

[zeppguitarded]

@boxtrap21 that is one of the most ignorant comments i have ever read.

[IGPXer]

@boxtrap21 Gibson does make metal guitars, he's just not using one.

[boxtrap21]

@IGPXer exactly

[llj355]

Get that man his Explorer!

[Tenchi874]

get your POD Brendon.

[lowercasedCAPS]

he sounds so unsure about what just happened.

[danbobdavis]

@shreddernuo It'd probably sound a lot better if he actually closed miced the cab instead of recording straight off of the camera's mic.

[pLaquMusic]

PULL THE PLUG

PULL THE PLUG

[maggot8393]

sweet v-neck

[kierandoyle1992]

@shreddernuo of course it does, this is camera audio, the actual song is studio quality. marshalls are top notch amps. you're one of those people who hates on marshall because everyone uses them aren't you

[hooplablahblahblah]

@kierandoyle1992 Dude. There are Marshall's out there that suck. And before you say I'm a Marshall hater or whatever... Except for a six month period where my Marshall was busted, all I've always used was Marshall's.

[kierandoyle1992]

@hooplablahblahblah yeah i know there's bad marshalls, but jcm800s can't really be considered shitty amp. you can't expect many amps to sound like a studio recording with only camera audio was the point i was making

[hooplablahblahblah]

@kierandoyle1992 Fair point, amigo.

[TmanTheLord]

i doubt he really cares at that moment that his amp sounds bad lol. this guy is a pretty busy man. doesn't mean anything about his playing.

[Ledgy91]

3:34 wtf

[rafnaj1]

I bet that I can play this, you arrogant buttwipe. Love his music, but the man is a dick.

[0denSmash]

@rafnaj1 dude "i bet you can't play this" is like the name of these instructional vids.. they all have to say that

[ShipsAreBurned]

@rafnaj1 fail

[zoraliciousful]

@rafnaj1 He said at the beginning 'Not to sound like a cocky jerk,but I bet you can't play this'

[MrVincegibson]

marshall tone makes me want to puke!

[brooklynstudio]

@MrVincegibson you do realize that it's not being run through an interface, and youtube kills quality
