Kirk Hammet guitar solo ("In the style of" w/Kristofer Dahl)

[roryport]

You suck Kirk Can pull any better solo

Out of his ass at a moments notice- Lik Library is better because they know what they're doing

[MBvolcom92]

Kirk hammet is the worst lead guitarist ever!

[pivetlord13]

sounds nothing like kirk

[MrJoshiey]

I don't like the sound of his guitar, if he thinks that sounds good he has hearing problems!

[wiumiscool]

dont know about you guise but to me that was actually better playing than kirk himself. Now the metallica die hard fans are probabily gonna give hate comments

[MrJoshiey]

@wiumiscool Opinions dude, I think that Kirk is THE coolest guitarist ever, I'm a hardcore Metallica fan so I'm obviously say that but I won't judge your opinion :P

[TheCelestialTeacup]

Give anyone who's been playing for roughly 3 years a wah pedal and they're instantly Kirk.

GIMME FUE, GIMME FAI, GIMME DABAJABAZAI!

[b0njov1]

who else thinks that that lick at 0:48 sounds alot like a Dimebag Darrell lick?

[Crashkiller62]

sry but this doenst sound like kirk just because you use patterns that he uses in his solos. nothing against kris or his guitar playing but that is just not a kirk hammett style solo. the unforgiven is a typical kirk hammett style solo. and btw. you spelt hammett wrong (not mean ment :) )

[billytalentrocks10]

what song is the lick at 0:48 played in? i havent listened to metallica in a whileee

[ekgop]

great dude

[thedistortedguitar1]

Enter Sandman ?

[TheBlind97]

how do you record your videos

[merrsshee]

Dude I like this more than a Metallica solo.

[xxxdesaria7xxx]

sounds much like the enter sandman solo (at least in the beginning).

[smashedism]

Parker fly? Shouldn't you be doing something else with you're time?

[roylandyard]

these guitars sound great but boy they are ugly

[ShreddinThrash]

These top rated comments really sicken me with patheticness.

[ArtOfSoccer7]

enter sadman?

[PeeraGuitarix]

mostly from Black Album

[MNightShamamalama]

yup, it sounds like crap, er i mean kirk. the ending was awesome though, loved the tapping.

[darknesse645]

do you have a tab please :) ?

[MrUldahl]

Great job! This is pretty much Kirk.

[Enclaven333]

gay ending



[masoudnima]

how to sound like kirk

get overdrive pedal and wah pedal

learn pentatonic

play fast

add some octaves

???

profit

[ragnaroksama]

this could have been a metallica solo lol

[jacobparasite]

the underlying riff is shit. just to point that out... i get your not gonna use some awesome riff but thats just shit annoying the background man! :P hehe

[can192]

steal from ''Dont Tread On Me'' at 0:47 :D

[restxinxlove]

dudes fuck off kirk is good at what he does and he has his style plus he makes more in a fucking week doing it that you probly do in a damn year so shut the hell up and enjoy the music if you choose not to enjoy it then FUCK OFF AND LISTEN TO WHAT EVER THE HELL ELSE YOU WANT idiots

[oilers1go1]

Oh geeze, wrong door again. Didn't mean to barge in on you wanking. It was exactly like Kirk though! Seriously, you could be in Metallica... For your next video could you just bash yourself in the face with the Wah-Pedal? That would be suuuuuper... *whispers* Hey guys, don't tell him being said to be like Kirk Hammett is like being told you have the intelligence of Sarah Palin... Though at least she can see Russia from her porch. Kirk is just useless. Wah-Chicka-Wah-Weeeeeeerrrrw

[RupertNotoy]

Thats the ugliest guitar I've ever seen

[scotty2toti]

@RupertNotoy it may be ugly but parker is one of the best believe me ..

[LennartIbanez]

u just pwnd krik hammet :P

[austintin1234]

0:30 to 0:39 its a mix of The four horsemen 1st solo connected with Enter Sandman`s solo. Check it out! im not crazy :P

[davidleadguitar]

Kirk Hammett Solo at Live Shit: Binge and Purge - Seattle

[davidleadguitar]

kirk hammett is a great guitar player

sound like him is difficult

you can play any songs but just in the style.

kirk likes hendrick. and he's got nrj from him : technic and feeling

[baseballkid4lyfe]

lol the solo is basically just enter sandman

[TehOmniverse]

That "+Kirk Hammett on steroids" banner had me in splits

[tikotidu]

enter sandman, but really slow....

[bmxlovecoke]

If Kirk want to play petatonic, and wah! so why is it so difficault to shut up! he can play whatever he want as long as he like it himself, why should he play something else if i don't like it? to learn to play guitar you learn alot of stuff, when you create a style of your own ... so you can listen to the songs.. and hey that is sach, wow i can hear that is wylde,, wow slash, wow kirk.. it's a trademark.. you can hear who's playing.. who want to listen to your stuff if you sounds like everyone

[JakeJamm1]

that guitar looks horrid

[Luxorcist]

@JakeJamm1 it also costs like 3 grand if memory serves lol

[JakeJamm1]

@Luxorcist does it really???

[KmartGuitar]

@JakeJamm1

it's actually a quality instrument. Yes it's not the most aesthetically pleasing to most people, but I'm sure it plays like a dream!

[santanasbeast]

such emotion when he plays lmao

[ruizmartin09]

youu pretty made your solo up of licks from enter sandman..

[ReebHound]

"um excuse me mister, you have a giant dildo on your headstock.

[SiSePuedo]

@ReebHound that is fucking HILARIOUS!!!

[ShortFingeredShreder]

@ReebHound ...That's not really giant!

[Satanhimselv]

ehhh does not sound like kirk at all ... too slow mate ;d

[mudgeroom2]

u suck

[Toolrocks13]

@mudgeroom2 This guy is ten times better than kirk

[KmartGuitar]

of course. throw a wah pedal in anything and it'll automatically sound like kirk.

[1treyton1]

@KmartGuitar In the best way possible.

[1treyton1]

@KmartGuitar but god damn does it sound good.

[3bo0odpala]

very kirky

[tascouts120]

Ur guitars headstock is weird Nd improvising isn't Playin someone elses solo in a different order

[finalhaven36]

what effects are you using??

[novemberrain1994]

If you are trying to improvise over Kirk Hammett playing dont play too much of Enter Sandman..

[xXHellzRejectXx]

is :31 from the four horsemen?

[haiderdrexel]

What kind of guitar is that?

[luisthrash]

@haiderdrexel a Parker

[skatesftw]

omfg u look like Damien from Rescue Me so much wth its scary

[popami]

this is just a variaton of the enter sandman solo same technics and costruction.

[ibanezbloke]

@popami Thats the point - you are indeed taught the style, and this way there are no pesky copyright fees. Ever read guitar techniques magazine? Their artist profiles feature musical examples that directly rip off the most popular tunes of said performer.

[juanperez0505]

kirk's solos are all alike, almost never leaving the first position of the pentatonic and always occupies the same phrases

[skeletonman100]

the solo part at 0:31 to 0:34 reminded of me

of a solo part of Good times Bad times but led zeppelin

[jameschoi999]

what brand guitar is this? harlem?

[TheAussieSwede]

@jameschoi999 Parker

[jameschoi999]

@TheAussieSwede oh thx!

[supernaturalforces]

not in style of kirk, just his solos put together

[tkrisz87]

it's sounds like morello a bit...especially the first half...

[MetalInstrumentals]

this really sounds like kirk some parts of the solo sound like enter the sandman

[pyro6957]

lucky guy with the parker fly

[CrushedJustice]

its so easy to imitate kirks sound...

[Monster4rmda559]

@CrushedJustice true but no one can play it like Kirk

[CrushedJustice]

@Monster4rmda559 each guitarist can't play like each other each are at different skills levels so its impossible to be a exact replica of someone

[StaupEimer]

@Monster4rmda559 Why would you want to?

[DowntownTB13]

this isnt "in the style of" Kirk Hammett. Its a bunch of Kirks solos put together to sound like he made it up, if anyone here listens to metallica youd notice he uses licks from Kirks solos, not in the style of him!!! Still good!!!

[trunks2oo8]

cool solo and crazy guitar :D

[illfaint]

OMFG SERIOUSLY GUYS CANT YOU READ THE FUCKING TITLE.

your all a bunch of 12 year old faggots that probably cant even play guitar and yous are saying that he sucks. hes not trying to be a kirk hes just playing in the style of kirk so he can teach us how to play the licks

checkout his other vdeos to see the actual lessons

[Darkdevil1584]

PARKER!

[Nick26021996]

hey kristopher dude, u should b in a band... all ur videos r amazing... u play great keep it up!!!!

[shredfix1993]

@Nick26021996 check out somthing called KMC metal, its a colab between kris and another instructor. the music theyve been pumping out is pritty impressive

[Vinnie995]

Looks like enter sandman

[k7marco]

@Vinnie995 lol, cause it's enter sandman

[jonathanshir]

He just dissected some solos and put riffs of em into this. there is a very distinctly noticeable part from enter sandman, and another one i can notice from it. "In the style" means using techniques like him, not copying him.

[rafauleciaelcarpio]

kirk doesn't play as well as this lesson show us!

[guitarherophenomFTW]

@rafauleciaelcarpio : LMAO! U say that and look where Kirk is at and look where ur at!

[greasemcvey]

@guitarherophenomFTW the sad part is that kirk really isnt that good...sure Metallica wrote great songs and they played a style that really fit the era, but lets face it they were lucky enough to be around when there was still an industry in which new styles were still emerging. Kirk really isnt all that great of a lead guitarist. He played some catchy licks every now and then, but he lacks melodic feel, his lead tone was generally terrible, and his "fast" licks werent even all that great.

[rafauleciaelcarpio]

@guitarherophenomFTW do you know me? hahahaha. ok you're right, but he was lucky to join metallica! All his solos sound jut the same "wawahwawahwaahawhahwaAwahwa!"

[nomad434]

That's one goofy looking guitar

[Gpup4Lifez]

FUCK KIRK!!!

[tannerleudy36]

so smooth !

[andrei10zidane]

enter sandman solo rip-off

[danecook321]

Is that first riff from anything?

[RoseMetalKSE]

@Nixkoool Oh, my master you are the most amazing guitarist the planet has seen, you got the biggest talent ever and guitar is like a toy for you / SARCASM YOU MOTHERCUKER ASHOLE STFU AND GO GET A GUITAR!!!!

[tivinivi]

0:23 seek and destroy guitar solo!

[MilesTheMusicDude]

@tivinivi actually that sounded more like the enter sandman solo.go do your homework kid.

[add4never]

i love how is guitar sounds. like the lead effect he uses. and i do appreciate his guitar. love this guy

[clemowy2k7]

i find it funny how no body here actually got this, but if they read the title properly they would.

it is supposed to be kirk hammet's solos but in the style Kristofer Dahl, meaning ofc he is copying parts of the solo because as the title states he;s not making his own up he is just re-styling the solos

[vagrantbeer]

Dude that was Awesome 

[dethmag]

Kirk Hammett solo style? Buddy if you want to impress us, please play the solo from Through the Never. Or any other solo from Kirk. Don't make Kirk's solo style sound typical.

[Guitarman1837]

guitarist always copy of each other like eric johnson who done cliffs of dover theres a part in there that he did where he plecs on string with his plec then pluckt the other with his thinger and ive saw steve vai and joe satriani use that skill before hell i even use it some times but not alot

[anthonydorris]

we know this is funny he is alog better the kirk hammet cuz kirk hammet is horrible

[Nixkoool]

Kirk Hammet sucks balls, and so do you, you fucking twat.

Learn to play the fucking guitar if you want to post videos for it.

[moonsuga]

@Nixkoool trololo

[grzana2429]

right, you've just copied some of his solos, and put it together, that cant be called style... your solo in the style of hammet, that would be it, but youve just copied him O_o

[NICK19641963]

4 things are ugly in this video.Hes face,hes guitar , hes playing and hes style;)

[owner12]

@NICK19641963

... and his wah wah.

[ari77o]

this guy is kinda  faggy

[PBXcostinho9]

i love that guitar

[A7Xguitaristx]

does sound pretty kirk-esque

[ytkoekie2000]

omg guyz! what are you talking about? the opening riff is one of the coolest things i ever heard on the guitar and the solo sounds really good, very smooth. He is a pretty good guitarist.

[whitewaterrats]

up and down!

[necroshyha]

If that's Hammet's style, it means Hammet became a pussy. I expected some crazy solo stylized on first albums

[angels77100]

@necroshyha Hammet was always a pussy. The bald headed midget who drums for Metallica tells him exactly what to play and how to play. Ulrich is directly responsible for the decline of Metallica and thier move into Numetal territory. Hetfield tried in vain to kick the little bastard out years ago, he always regretted getting rid of Mustaine. Ulrich stays and dictates while Hammet sits in silence going 'yes sir, no sir'. Fucking pussy.

[LittleJosh1995]

fucking good xD great!

[metallica123ize]

lol lalaldd

[alexander6614]

Great!!! Your rock!!! ;D

[ifckmepudding]

Is it just me or does the first solo sound a lot like the solo from Enter Sandman? I mean, like, parts of the original are just thrown in.

[1treyton1]

@ifckmepudding Most of the stuff he rocks are from a bunch of their songs thrown together basically. The octive part at 0:18 is from Enter Sandman, just changed a little bit.

[rakenwood]

Damn. Kristofer Dahl is awesome. Just awesome. All of his vids just reek of awesomeness. What more can be said. The guy can do it all

[acondaaconda]

what is this song please ???

[suloman123]

Wow Im amazed by the number of haters!!

People really dont know to appreciate something when they see it.

Great licks there!!! 5 stars \m/

[NoVanity1]

His tone is so trebley and gainy.... I hate it

[Strummify]

dont understand why you all are hating... this guy is a fantastic guitarist and hes at least putting something out on youtube to show us some metallica style, no reason to hate on him (constructive criticism is not hate)

[tintin4561]

dragonforce is gay all their songs sound the same

[Slashfan90210]

@tintin4561 Yeah, they all sound like mush.

[FeelTheFight]

Wow I didn't know that Kirk changed his hairstyle

[rodri042]

@FeelTheFight hahahah

[Lalaldd]

Omg that people actually think that guitar hero is better than real guitar. Hahahah

[zigZag776]

@Lalaldd  There is always the option. Pick up a piece of pointless plastic or pick up something that can actually get you somewhere.

[ibanez641]

who is this angels kid? how is guitar hero better than guitar? whatever, to each his own, but you must lack friends with those opinions

[Ventalei]

Why is everyone freaking out? Slash (Gun's N Roses. Velvet Revolver) plays Guitarhero. Kirk Hammett (Metallica)plays GuitarHero. Zakk Wylde (Ozzy Osbourne)plays GuitarHero. Bucket Head (Bucket Head) plays GuitarHero. Tom Morello (AudioSlave, Rage Against the machine) plays GuitarHero. The guy that sings for Distubed (totally forgot his name) plays GuitarHero. Herman Li (DragonFroce)plays GuitarHero. And last but not slightly least, this guy plays guitar hero.

[tanvo93]

@Ventalei herman li is shitty..and dragonforce should only be played in the beginning of a video game

[Ventalei]

Tanvo93, agreed.

[tanvo93]

@tanvo93 its so stupid its so eazy to write a song that they make..they have 2 chord changes in TTFAF..so its HELLA easy to solo off that...ive been playing the guitar for 1 n a half years and i could make a more musically tech song...and it just sounds like somethin ull here n some asian video game

[likethedevils]

@angels7710 ...nerds XD

[tascouts120]

what the fuck? in the style of you mean most licks out of that are out of enter sandman and stuff FUCK YOU

[xXlYlacXx]

his a fucking idiot..

[TOPGUITAR1234]

@angels7710 OMG YOUR A HANDICAPE DO YOU EVEN PLAY FUKIN GUITAR!!!

[angels77100]

No you idiot. I don't play the stupid guitar. I play GuitarHero. Which is 10 times more satisfying and better. Idiot.

[RevisedTV]

wow you fail, thats why you play GH, its cool and all, but teaches you nothing about the actual instrument, and you must have flunked at playing guitar, which is why you play GH

[TheMetalMarco]

@angels77100 Gh is a shit you only thk that you are good because you play a sog in 100% but i want to see you playing real guiutar stupid

[TheMetalMarco]

@angels77100 Gh is a shit you only thk that you are good because you play a sog in 100% but i want to see you playing real guiutar stupid

[ollz12]

@angels77100 cock head .....

[angels77100]

No. NO I don't. Jesus havent' you been reading the posts?

[brandon9966]

this sucks balls x10 then it sucks more balls

[MMAmachinhead92]

Yep, the palm mute sweep is distinctive from Seek and Destroy and Sad but True.

[WerTiopXie]

not bad....but not beter then Kirk Hammet

[MrCreamEgg]

@angels77100

Guitar Hero change the songs completely and this is real guitar...

[Rabje1234]

lowl, guitar hero is a fucking video game xD

It has always been a video game and it will always fucking be!

there's a diffrence between videogame and musical passion, y'know ;P

[angels77100]

There is a lot of musical passion to be gained from playing Guitarhero. More so than playing a rusty old string guitar anyway.

[Rabje1234]

yeah, you must have the rhythm and you'll learn to be agile (when you play on hard or expert) but it still remains a game ;)

playing real guitar is way harder and get's you way more chics xD

Guitar hero is fun on a birthday party or something.. just like singstar and those dancegames...

no REAL musical passion needed, just some practise. that's all

[angels77100]

I played most dance DJ games and rap games before I discovered Metal and guitar hero. Now I'm probably the biggest metal fan out there. I even got the original guitar hero version. Guitar hero is a way of life.

[hoygans]

Lmao angels. Kill yourself XD

But no, seriously. Do it faggot.

[TrucksterUser]

ROFL!

[gunsnroses0987]

what gauge strings are those

[HybridSoldier94]

since 0:48 it sounds like all that remains :D

[luvudarren1]

enter Sandman. u killed it man

[lightninrodgod]

Is that Don't tread on me???

[denizone83]

sounds like kirk hamster :D

[69zachdelarosa69]

you know my personal opinion you got your technic but i aint feelin no soul man just feel

[sweeper77777]

wow how are you so calm when you play thing that get people madddd rock on dude never sell your guitar U-*w*-U

[crashdietie]

5/5 tabs? like it

[JustinSyn]

yep, that's kirk-CRAP :)

[LAfant619]

that suckd dick the only thing that sounded like kirk hammett was your last lick and only because he made that

[paulyboy911]

it all sounded like Kirk...I say this because everything he played was either from Enter Sandman, Sad But True or Don't Tread On Me. it was a combination of those 3

[LAfant619]

yer i guess

[JamalBojangles]

he's so chill when he plays

[falcoperegrinus82]

idk, i think parkers look pretty sweet.

[angelfr83220]

he just took some part of hammett solos and put them together and played it with a shitty looky guitar while acting like a retard.

[ooreyoo]

thats why the title of the vid is ''Kirk Hammett guitar solo'' duhh durr duhhh

[angelfr83220]

@ooreyoo  the title is "In the style of" and it is not in the style of, it is just copypasta from kirk solos DERP DERP
