MEGADETH Symphony of Destruction Solo - Ol Drake Evile

[megadeth18ful]

please do a megadeth cover live. i beg you

[MrSharpenis]

TYoure a god ol.

[MrHillbillyMetalhead]

You're a great guitarist!

[poonparade616]

My problem with this solo is that about 20 secs in it gets so fast that it's really difficult to discern individual notes, making learning it by ear a nightmare. Stupid Friedman and his blatant excellence XD

[Shockheadd45]

Hey Ol, one of the guitarists in our band is having a lot of trouble with this solo. It's accurate almost note for note, but the timing and speed of his cover is way off, he can't do it even close like Marty can. And I'm pretty damn fast on solos and decent with technique and with some time, but I'm always nervous when covering a shred solo. Can you give us any tips after critiquing our soloing styles?

[bilbotitface]

@Shockheadd45 practice your shred solos so you feel more confident about them and let your guitarist learn it in his own time...im struggling with this one too its a lot harder than i expected + my tab is a bit offf :)

[Shockheadd45]

@bilbotitface Thanks man, but I suck balls at sweeping but I can probably get the more smoother, less crazy parts of this solo down, but definitely not the insane sweeping, and string skipping parts.

[bilbotitface]

@Shockheadd45 learn a couple of metallica songs ttheir solos are piss tbh they were a good start for me XD

[Shockheadd45]

@bilbotitface Uh, their solos bore me to be honest, and I do most solos by ear.

[bilbotitface]

@Shockheadd45 fair enough it was just a suggestion i know what you meen tho there not hard just fast XD

damn your great. Hey listen i suck at this solo and part of the reason is that i can't find the right tab for it. CAn you point me to the right direction??

[EvileOL]

@DarioLosso69 Spend time learning it be ear, tabs are untrustable and more often than not inaccurate

[killeraevis51]

what brand of strings are you using?

[EvileOL]

@killeraevis51 Ernie Ball!

[killeraevis51]

@EvileOL thanks, keep on thrashing!

by the way, can you show a lesson on how to play "Hundred Wrathful Deities"?

[Talmanonn]

@EvileOL Hey man, saw you last year in Manc and seeing you again in February this year! XD I was just wondering which slinky do you use? =]

[Funebresto]

WTF!! Wow

[tallicafan250169]

You play it better than Chris Broderick does o.O

[FKINRAG3]

[jeanettebajs]

[EvileOL]

[jeanettebajs]

@EvileOL Strange, how do you like em? Are they easy to do divebombs with?

[OreaSuaste]

Damn! you´re a great musician, respect :)

[BASSMASTA673]

Hmm. I 'm workin on this solo right now and by the looks of the video it seems you got it note for note. I hope i can get with effort half the mzingness of your attempt. APPROVED!!!

[dehdehderzz]

[ShredmastaMike]

[Heinrick192]

[SeventhKillSwitch]

[tapanjeet88]

PERFECT!

[EpicMachineSH]

Awesome cover!

[SnipinG1337]

And now Tornado

[nibowill]

absolutely perfect

[veraenrut]

Great job man, perfect! This solo is hard to play when you dont have exactly the right notes in the tabs.

[tetra3000]

stop making it look easy lol

[corratecxverts01]

awesome!

[gentepobre]

very good man

[bcherbs]

Ive been practicing this solo and its a very tuff one!! Great job gives me insentive..

[xDizzy9x]

Holy shit, you make it look so fucking easy :D

[supershuraface3]

i love moser guitars!

[Metalkopf]

I think he's got the right fingering, not the incorrect one we find everywhere, on the web and even in the official songbook.

[idshanks]

There's no such thing as an incorrect fingering if it's the right notes. No need to play something exactly as the original guitarist plays it.

[Metalkopf]

Absolutely great, flawless ! ! ! Where are you from man?

[Nadersith]

I thought what you said. I love first part. And I love Jeff Waters video too much.

And I also like Enter the Grave!

I WANT YOUR NEW ALBUM!!!!

[fretboardlord]

The new Evile album is gonna be sick!!!

[megadethdan]

[belgiumstefan]
