Bloody Tears (Castlevania) - Shaka XD

[bragosng1]

D+

Realmente....

AWESOME

[S3ttl3r]

Brasileiro?? Amigo, me diga como vc fez o som da tua guitarra ficar com esse drive matador =)

[shakaxd]

Opa, obrigado! Usei o PodXT Live gravando pela USB direto no PC. Pod tava com um leve wah wah, drive la pelo 7 ou 8 usando o amp ^Line6 Insane^ ou algo assim, já faz tempo a gravação... além claro de digital delay pra dar uma encorpada.

Abraços!

[S3ttl3r]

Pow valeu mesmo pelas dicas, a propósito cover ficou ótimo e o audio & video tbm. Parabens!!

[jaerdalas]

parabens!!! which effects configuration are you having?

[ThisIsKuroCat]

Nice dude!

[xxcrimxx]

Make sure to include the fact that this is the "Gothic" version. I don't know what the real name is for it, but that is just what is referred to from other sources.

tnx.

[darkfaith91]

damn dude, i can play that beginning on piano.

[gr1mtales]

please, give ous the tabs!!!

[ScorpioX19]

cool sound.

[americankagome]

nice slight modifications.

[OdinX009]

what rig ru using? (what guitar, amp model, pedal?) and how much that guitar and amp cost u? those are stock pick ups rite?

[shakaxd]

Guitar: Epiphone G400 Custom (I replaced the middle pickup but it's not used on this record)

Pedal: Line 6 PODxt Live (USB recording, so amp plays no part on it)

Amp: Peavey KB/A-100 (a clean keyboard amp for live playing and rehearsal)

As I'm from Brazil their price is way higher than abroad, you can find both pedal and guitar on eBay for under USD 900

[cardinellj]

this is by far the best cover for such an awesome song that i have ever heard

[xpallodoc]

this cover is better then the original, it builds upon it and takes it to its next evolution

[downe74]

a lot of it was out of time...but pretty good.

[SeanustheLegend]

Straight cover from the Dracula Battle Perfect Select album released only in Japan. Still good, though.

[RyuBlade1980]

Nice! Must have been a lot of work putting it all together. I really like your version.

The only thing you could improve is your rhythm. For example at 02:42 you slide up a little too late and play the next note in a hurry.

Other than that: thumps up!

[zeel2527]

nice...

[cardinellj]

This was downright AWESOME... You gotta tab this.

[acescope]

Freaking awesome. Definatly one of the best people I've seen play this.

[Framptonmaniac]

Lindooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Show de bola, maravilhoso!

[TOYSATWAR]

FUUUUUCKK!!!! SOUNDS GREAT MAN!!! good skills on guitar ;p

[Turgah]

Pussies play with dropped D :P Still, nice playing

[shakaxd]

It's standard E, not dropped D ;P

[downe74]

Nice guitar, same as mine =). lol. but mines a les paul.

[DudeManGuy1019]

The only word to describe that was rockstar.

[asdfasdfasdffda]

where did you get the music for this? or did you do it by ear?

[xMonkeyReaperX]

what do you use to record your guitar?

[shakaxd]

Pod XT has a USB output that sends stereo signal straight to recording softwares as SONAR :)

[xMonkeyReaperX]

how about adding distortion. cuz i have acid music studio and a usb cable that lets me record directly to my comp. but the dist. that it has sound horrible

[shakaxd]

i've used pod own distortion pack, no big deal about that

[666wash666burn666]

man if its not to much hassle...do u think you could help me out...i can play the song allso and i have a podxt...but i just got it and i wanna no if u can help me get that sound...all i have is the presets:(...and i wanna make a video...if u think u can help me...email me at wash_burn666@hotmail(dot)com..­.thanx

[shakaxd]

yeah, sure :)

i'll send you as soon as I get home.

[simonhenrique2]

aways out of time. but keep trying XD

[AutoRaion]

Eh I don't think credit is even really necessary as long as you don't claim to be the original author.

[shakaxd]

That's exactly why I wasn't worried about finding whoever to credit: not once did I claim to be the author, just stated that I was playing the tune, as a lot of others did in other videos, and not creating a brand new version.

[MiloAmbrus]

Your technique is impressive, but your speed is a little out of control. Try to keep up with the pace and you´ll be 100% in no time.

Keep up, nice vid.

[BalanceKeeperInSpace]

don't you think you should give Kenichi Matsubara a little credit? i mean he did make the original rock version of bloody tears :/

[MwuLaFllaga]

I fully agree...

[shakaxd]

I didn't give anyone credits simply because I couldn't find a reliable information about the real author. Some were saying Matsubara, others Craddle of the Filth. Given this scheme, I chose not to misgive any credits. I hope you understand my choice

[RexUnionum]

As a matter of fact, this version of Bloody Tears was originally played by Naoto Shibata PROJECT for Konami's "Perfect Selection: Dracula Battle" -album. So if you're going to give credits for someone, give them to Naoto Shibata for metal arrangement.

[RexUnionum]

Kenichi Matsubara is one of the four composers of original Bloody Tears.

[N1nja32]

hey, this was really awesome dude, but can you tell me your gear used?

[shakaxd]

Epiphone G400 Custom + Pod XT Live :)

[N1nja32]

kk thanks dude =]

[zammarock]

i like the sound of that guitar and ur amp, and ur playing on this song is awesome. what kind of amp are u using? w/ distortion? if so, what is it?

[shakaxd]

All guitar tracks were recorded directly using PodXT Live USB port, so no amp was needed. All overdrive, distortion, chorus, reverb, wah wah and delays are there. If you own a Pod yourself, I can send you the settings I used :)

[MickeyP91]

AWESOME! man can you send me the tabs please?

[Deeman666]

Nice sound in you guitar dude! far from perfect playing. But work on your skills, cuz' it seems like u got some talent there! Keep up with the playing and you can go far :) practice makes perfect as they say :)

[estaes]

nice guitar.

but your playing sucks.

[darkmark145]

1 word... OWNAGE!! 10/10 man awesomeness guitar i like the background :D

[theredlion92]

that is sooooooooo sickkkkkkkkkkk

[DarthTwilight]

i think your 2nd and 3rd strings are flat. It sounds a little better when played in standard because half step down makes it a little fuzzy on those low notes. sorry. im a studio musician. i have to criticise somewhat.

[miguelin777]

nime performance

[langji]

nicely played

[Storm3Ryder]

At first i thought it was fake but then i heard the high notes over the music then i was like

That guys pro

[miguelin777]

nice, doesnt matter some little mistakes, oh damn love that song!

[thacr0w]

hi there..ur really amazing..

can u send ur Backing track.??

thx in advance =)

[chanley608]

nice dude

[Ferspan]

Poor vibratos and inconsistent playing. Nice tone tho, i give 3 out of 5.

[BenjaminJWeaver]

I like your tone. Even though I hate SG's. Pretty good talent with mixing too.

[shakaxd]

Thanks a lot! I'm thinking about remixing the whole intro as it is still not sounding the way I want; some people even told me that only realized what song I was playing when the melody started =(

[smallfatty]

mamn nice you deserve a better guitatr than that !!!!!!

[shakaxd]

thanks a lot! I wouldn't mind if anyone gives me a Steve Morse signature guitar ;)

[Rayne8361]

Do you know anything about guitars? That is a custom Les Paul he is playing. Can't get any better than that in my opinion.

[kutleshi89]

That's a vintage Gibson SG. It's a great guitar. What are you talking about?

[shakaxd]

Actually it's an Epiphone G400 Custom, slightly different from a SG

[Rayne8361]

Thank you for enlightening us. That is a fine and rare instrument. I can't say I've seen many of them. Keep on rocking!

[Rayne8361]

Perhaps it is. The video image is not the best a little dark and I did not have my glasses on when I first saw this video. I can't really see the corners of the guitar to well. Either way the SG and Les Paul are finely tune instruments =)

[luvcomeswithpain]

yea, u can see epiphone right there lol

[reyan7777]

very nice

[unclegawy]

dude do you have a track for the original version and yours? i soooo wanna get them!!!

[shakaxd]

yeah, I do have! if you're still interested send me a message with your e-mail so I can send them right away!

[antonioiori]

nice video man!

can you send me the tabs?

[Rawdoncat]

cool, it's awesome, but it's not a 5 stars, i give you a 4 star

[myogatheflea]

5 stars man! This is kickass.

[ultimatechaos1103]

[logan0942]

[Bidon45]

I prefer bloody tears on piano, but this is also very good, excellent job.

[kriki007]

Well done bloody tears on guitar sounds much better

[ian2304]

and who says epiphones can't kick ass =)

[ilaunorise]

amazing. i almost cried watching at it i wish i could play this on guitar

[shakaxd]

wow, thanks *_*

I almost cried reading this ;)

I try my best, but I'm pretty sure a lot of people out there can pull yet better recordings... but I'm not here to be the best, neither did I try: I'm just having some fun playing and hosting videos =)

[zombiefriend]

MAN! i wish i could put this on my mp3 player! i didnt sound like bloody tears at first but then melody came in...and well....it was great :) awesome job!!

[shakaxd]

[shakaxd]

[zombiefriend]

[LaloGti]

Good job! can u send me the track to my mail please???

[shakaxd]

[LaloGti]

[shakaxd]

[proulx1q]

wow! at first i was like "he's not even playing it! its by Cradle of filth!" but then ferther in the song you jst kept adding stuff ehre and there so good job man!

[mrgamer3000]

cool??

[jedahkinneas]

muito bauM! vamos tocar umas musicas de games qualquer dia desses ae! ^.~

[Toadeater]

Nice...

[lucentbeam]

Ok, a winner is you.

So amazing.

[poorplayer102]

accually there are 2 versions of this song, one is by the band mentioned above by rashakash but there is another version that's by a different band that has more keyboard in it

[michigo]

YEAH. Bloody Tears. My favXD

[rockona7xx]

Hmm. I'm told that's by Cralde of FIlth. Is it?

BTW, nice playing. I taught myself that about a week ago. Only got through the first solo, though.

[zakatak000]

Nope, CoF covered that song, Wikipedia it.

[rashakash]

Wikipedia is user submitted and therefore unreliable. Most people download this off limewire where it's credited to CoF and think it's really them. It's actually by a Japanese group called Club Kukeiha on their album "Dracula Battle Perfect Selection." CoF has never even done a variation of this. Dumbass.

[zombiefriend]

cradle of filth?? bloody tears was made by some japanese group: kukeiha club (thatd actually be really cool tho if cradle performed this song)

[sabbath234]

very bad, 6 years, and you play these? xD  asshole

[sphinx200]

You make that look soo easy O__o' ...

[0uch13s]

omfg awesome, how long u been playing man?

[shakaxd]

I bought my first guitar some 6 years ago, had a few classes back then and started self teaching me, playing very few hours a week.

[chem182]

i like this vid!

[therealcaz]

I found the tabs for piano,but in guitat is better

[loofaboy]

very good, could u tell me where to fine the keyboard transcriptions?

[SeraphSephiroth]

excellent, no screw that fucking awesome!where'd you get the tabs for this by the way?

[shakaxd]

thanks! i used a guitar pro tab as starting point, transposing from F to E, resampling the drums and using the original keyboard parts.

[erikcobhc]

good job mann . i was curius if you knew where to get the keyboard tabs .

[tubefan1234]

Man i am impressed beyond words dude.

[SoulKatana]

KUDOS!!! ; )

[AznPrideGuild]

man i dont like this version play another version plz

[PeterGriffin888]

great got same guitar as you:) but mine is red:) very good playing keep it up! :D

[kaiyabriefs]

Damn!! this has to be the best version of Bloody Tears I have heard on Youtube. You are very good. I personally think that version should have been in the game but hell that's me.

[Brylantor]

Keyboard solo!

should have put in a drum solo too that would have been awesome.

[Nitrooo84]

great sound, what's your setup?

[shakaxd]

Epiphone G400 Custom -> POD XT Live -> Peavey KB/A-100

Pod was set with a slight wah wah, Line6 drive and digital delay

thanks =D

[americankagome]
