Kerry Riff King !!

[dominatorlaaa9889]

I have a bc rich kerry king v!!

[dominatorlaaa9889]

HOW DOES HE DO THAR AWSOMNESS????!!!!



[reillynow]

This is the riff that lit my eternal guitar fire. It is outright menacing. It sounds like a bat or Angel if you will flying.... listen

[bourbonfueledradcunt]

They say behind Chuck Norris's beard is another fist. Well, behind Kerry King's beard is another Chuck Norris.

[roundhousekicker88]

Did he say whole step down? I could've swore the whole album was half step down..

[zakksucksdick]

Thoughtless riffs.

[munkeefork69]

dude that picking style is so wonky how the fuck does he do that. Shit how ever he does it, that definitely works for him

[wrenchbender320]

Kerry fucking owns metal !

[LittleBastard696]

Oh my god! He show me one riff! Now I'm sure that I'll be great guitarist! Is it big problem to show all riffs?

[Alexis13h]

That's like my favorite part of that song :)

[Shianetto]

what guitar is that?

[halowars62]

@Shianetto Bc Rich Warlock Kerry King

[JimJimJimNL]

Lol his pinky

[sfdksfksdfsdfdfs]

@x217sd  Yes, and?

[Jonsk12394]

What has always annoyed me about this video is that he plays the riff one time to many >.<' Always expecting the heavy chugs earlier :P

[MrNerodrago]

Nice!!!

[Zintendo]

@Attractions999 lmfao

[Ravn000]

@Attractions999 lol I've written it once, and it was on this video. It was a joke. I obviously don't want him for president of any country. However you're a jackass for thinking the internet is only going to do what you want. You're not alone here, so let people say whatever the fuck they want. If you don't like it, stfu or gtfo.

[TheGreatOldOnes]

Legend says that beard is the last thing you see before you die.

[asxjune1260]

bald, beard, tattoo,guitar,riff

everything,cool

[Disciple1000]

Metal God!!!

[kimdehell22]

[Mlodyryzu]

FUCKING LOVE THAT RIFF



[PolStevenson]

[IRONMETALPOTATO]

[PolStevenson]

@IRONMETALPOTATO

I can do what i want and when i want . so shut ur dirty mouth and rage on other place . stupid ignorant dumbfuck

[IRONMETALPOTATO]

@PolStevenson well then get the fuck off this video of kerry king if you hate him so much

[PolStevenson]

@IRONMETALPOTATO

well i will repeat for your dumb head again ; I will do what i want . so don't cut yourself ;)

[urgirlfrnddigzme]

@PolStevenson I agree, do what you want. But if you're going to go talking shit about someone as respected as Kerry King, expect some negative feedback.

[Deenowze]

DOWN-FUCKING-PICK!!!!!

[SpiritMolecule1]

This= AWESOME!

Karmablade= The new hope for Metal

[infuryify]

@SpiritMolecule1 I heard Karmablade...they're the next hope for screamo shit not Metal

[SpiritMolecule1]

@infuryify you actually called karmablade screamo? haha what a fucking noob you are

[infuryify]

@SpiritMolecule1 fuck you gumby

[SpiritMolecule1]

@infuryify its ok, you are new to metal

[infuryify]

@SpiritMolecule1 actually i'm not new to metal i'm new to death metal and i will be for a long time (thats because it just crosses the line)

[matzallanit]

SOUNDS LIKE SHIT!!!!!!!!

[TheTianBao]

kerry king for president!

[tubaljohn1]

Stick with your band, my kid can do that.

[BeastLordofMetal]

I love how he never alternate picks, which is how metal should be played, all down picked, apart from solos of course lol

People should learn to down pick really fast, because i think alternative picking all the riffs takes away the power.

[deathmetalguitaristx]

@BeastLordofMetal depends what sound your going for imagine children of bodom all down picked but it does make sense to an extent :)

[PatraThanos]

ohhh his picking is so powerfull that i thought he will broke the strings!!! Kerry FTW!!!

[SlayerPelicano]

jedna gitara to brzmienie ma mega. natomiast grac takie cos na akustyki - nierealne;/

[KrisTerziev]

dude i dont say nothing but his rifs are the same sounding :X

[metalboto]

the riff that killed everything !!!

[P4nzerk93]

I actually hate this video because this song was written by Jeff to shouldn't he be playing this? also i like Jeff more.

[lronmaidenRgods]

@P4nzerk93 he is playing the part he wrote

[Chester1004]

@lronmaidenRgods

King wrote nothing at this song.

Jeff wrote everything at Angel of Death from riffs to lyrics all by himself.

P.S No hating but Kerry isnt good enough to write such an epic riff as this.

[lronmaidenRgods]

@Chester1004 i mean he is playing the part he wrote, only 48 seconds of the song, the rest is by jeff

[david10006]

sweet..but who really came up with this riff? Jeff or Kerry?

[TheMarkyy]

@david10006 probably jeff, jeff writes the majority of shit, if not all of it.

[lronmaidenRgods]

@TheMarkyy kerry writes most of the songs in christ illusion and god hates us all

[Haddockxyz300]

@lronmaidenRgods

The Best Albums :)

[breastmilkdabestmilk]

This lick gives me goosebumps everytime

[Bagge182]

Kerry King is scary.

.

[valdivia562]

i need to see him play a les paul

[34talo]

ĂńģĕŁ óƑ ĎēăŢĥ 666 !!

[34talo]

Kerry King is an atheist to say that right?

[Ravn000]

Kerry King for president!

[MetalLessons]

@Ravn000 We've learned to play this song from the King of Brutal Thrash

[parafleet]

Fuck Miller beer, using "THE VETS OF IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN" as the new circus freaks to sell piss-beer by.

[thirdrider]

Is he only downpicking? I never realised, but it seems he is. His arm must be damn tired after a show, the way he's using everything up to his shoulder just for the picking.

[getrippedapart]

upstroke? what the fuck is that

[slayerkicksass1]

@getrippedapart It's when you pick upward. Like downstroke, is when you pick down.

[kissmyasssuckers]

Why do people talk so much shit about him?....He's awesome! One of my personal favourites!

[givemeajackson]

@kissmyasssuckers well, it's cause in terms of solos, slayer just sucks! nothing against slayer, they are one of my favourite bands, but the solos are just a pain in the ass. so, a lot of people rate guitarists by solos, and that's the weak point of kerry. he's just a rythm machine. listen the sea of lies solo by symphony x, you'd probably change your favourites...

[kissmyasssuckers]

@givemeajackson huh...

[givemeajackson]

@kissmyasssuckers can you explain that "huh", please.

[kissmyasssuckers]

@givemeajackson "huh" as in "Huh, Oh really"?

[ZuoCruz]

@givemeajackson you're right about King's solos. Not only do they all sound the same, several of them are out of key!

[givemeajackson]

@ZuoCruz it's just random hammering on the fretboard with too much wammy :/.i think angel of death would have been even better without solo, just daves double bass and then the last chorus. but in black magic was a good one, nothing special but in key.

[johnthegreek178]

@givemeajackson Unlike his solo on Antichrist

[poyanator]

I WANT THAT GUITAR!!!! :O

[debbieluvsibanez]

kickass

[23house23]

So much evil in the riff at 0:26

[23house23]

get this bald fuck another cheese burger

[VisualVEN0M]

@23house23 woah dude, what do you have agianst him???

[RORYzRIGHT]

@VisualVEN0M He sucks!!!

[axllovesslash]

@23house23 haha shut up you butthurt troll

[GrieverKai]

I can see why David Ellefson says he's the best metal rhythm guitarist. His playing is so solid. I know lots of you walk into music stores and see people playing Slayer on guitar or some other metal riff, but it's always a tad sloppy, right?

[xXFraudXx]

@GrieverKai Not when I do it.

[hyena419]

it looks like kerrys hair switched sides of his head from the top to the bottom

[TheHereticAnthem20]

Kerry King = BEARDBANGING!!!

[PvtRichardCranium]

I don't think that Kerry is a douche.

I think he's just insane. Totally, fucking insane.

[RORYzRIGHT]

@PvtRichardCranium no he is a douche

[NorrisArt]

Awesome riff. I'd really love to hear Hanneman doing it, though.

[MultiTreblinka]

so sick

[imyourgodmachine]

Opening riff is easily one of the top 3 metal riffs ever.

[acidtwinblaze]

Sick fucking warlock. I should buy the metal master and rig it like that.

[Hubcool367]

Haha I always liked those licks

[TheZombini]

He makes it look easy. one can dream.

[Obsidian]

Kerry King lives in Riverside. I met him once and tried offering him weed, sadly he said no. LOL

[gnmithun]

@Obsidian Serious??? I read somewhere he had a strict no-no policy regarding hard drugs...but weed too?????

[Obsidian]

@gnmithun Yeah from what he said, he doesnt smoke anymore.

[m3talmast3er]

what guitar is that?

[SATURNINE90]

All these dumbass comments over a video with one of the best metal riffs ever made? hah hah WOW

[disturbedbass49]

He's so much cooler than Kerry. Kerry's great, but Jeff is as good, and Kerry is a TOTAL FUCKING DOUCHE. I love Slayer, but he picks more fights than hitler

[joelrod18]

it sounds like Children of Bodom's "You're Better Off Dead" o.0

[Chester1004]

@joelrod18

You mean "Children of Bodom sounds like this" not the other way around.

[maynard696969]

the devil's scale!

[cheapcape]

Slayer blowz and Kerry King is an overrated faggot.

[fasioletti]

@cheapcape are you talking about slayer or your mommy and daddy?!!

[XDrUmErBoY512X]

all of slayers ore technical songs and longer and better songs were written by jeff... all the death metal crazy fast shit is written by kerry.. love em both.

[Khalilullah]

Insult Kerry King all you want, losers...he's still gonna be a legend in a legendary band, doing what he wants, when he wants, while you wank on his tabs between shifts at Burger King. Yes, when you're emptying the grease traps and scraping the goo from restaurant tiles, he'll be hanging with the best and driving a car more expensive that your entire life.

[fasioletti]

@Khalilullah well said, man well said.

[amaznazn007]

i think we should all grow up and forget what happened some 70 years ago. okay people?

and no, the swastika is not a hate symbol, the nazi's just made it that way because they suck dick.

[DKSpawn333]

kerry king is nice! and his wife is hot :P

ROCK ON!

[MegadethPWNMetallica]

i find it kinda funny how the most underrated and the most overrated guitarists are in the same band

[MyToncek]

73 people are jews¨!

[Draceius]

@MyToncek racist much

[MyToncek]

@Draceius fuck yeah!

[lycaon57950]

@MyToncek not funny

[MyToncek]

@lycaon57950 so fucking what u are juw aren't u?!

[lycaon57950]

@MyToncek no, i'm not a jew, but I hate racist dumbass like you.

[MyToncek]

@lycaon57950 so u re nigger!

[lycaon57950]

@MyToncek I'm a fuckin' White, blond hair, green eyed guy. And you are a nzi aren't you?

[MyToncek]

@lycaon57950 no i hate nazis, jews and people who have blond hair, green eyes and calling me a nazi"" !

[5PointsGuitarist]

[0Mtai0]

@5PointsGuitarist

[baldeeee]

[crazyjohnny2]

0:00 to 0:39 fap fap fap

[metalheadfaceperson]

[ihzoe68]

good,,,

[jimmyshitbags]

....SEAS OF BLOOD BURY LIFE, SMELL YOUR DEATH AS IT BURNS DEEP INSIDE OF YOU!!!

[NadaInterior]

Worst guitarrist ever

[Wolverine30303]

@NadaInterior show us your skill than

[HarryJohnstonA]

@123MetalRules He's not underrated, but kerry has an outgoing personality, and he's an amazing character

[thrashtildeth247]

this is my favorite riff to play on guitar. EPIC.

\m/ HAIL SLAYER \m/

[MrBlackops122]

00.00-00.01 Custom song4 Xd

[EpicCwiSS]

It looks like the audio isnt balanced with the vid ..

[poobearpanda345]

does anyone know what song is in the intro that is on for like half a second?

[frozenskull2009]

@poobearpanda345 it looks like its theme melody of the TG TV

[maddermofo]

Excellent riff

[anen96]

@maddermofo Really? is it? -of course it is! everybody (who has a brain) knows that it fucking kick ASS!!! lol

[Superlynn666]

he is so fraking HOT!

[beaverfeaver12]

best slayer riff

[megaflyinbrian]

all down strokes!!

[Metallica42497]

kahler trems suck

[Arrakis1991]

y'all dont get me wrong, i love kerry's playing very much but it seems to me Jeff's being totally left behind, and let us not forgot HE was the one who wrote almost all of the Slayer epic riffs n shit.

[pintadopedro]

i wish Kerry was my dad

[lukeruls1]

All you guys sayin shit get a life I bet you are all 40 years old and living with your mothers so stfu

[Delannys]

yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhh

[KryptoBlade]

@deathcore1239 Being insulted by a fag who can't spell worth shit.

[deathcore1239]

@KryptoBlade wow, now that i look back, my spelling was shit hahaha

[tilmanscherer123]

@deathcore1239 if you don't like it, don't listen to it, just go back to your deathcore crap

[KaptnJolly]

does anyone know "Ricky King" ? GUITARGOD :D

[thelookofdisgust]

ik how to play this ill post a video up on how to

[mestarka13]

BC RICH guitars are fucking insane , especially in kerry's king hands ^^

[Zekesilva1]

Jeff is a much better guitarist than kerry king.

[takingdaggers]

@Zekesilva1 It's their interplay that makes slayer so baddassed, besides king was in megadeth, putting him up there with cris poland and marty friedman. He's no slouch.

[123MetalRules]

jeff hanneman is the man in Slayer and he is really underrated.

[pride917]

@123MetalRules your right, i think everybody is on kerry because of his tattoos lol

[ringsofsaturn666]

@pride917 or kerry king is just a beast

[greatlotrfan]

@123MetalRules: yeah but it was kerry who taught jeff how to play guitar.....still jeff is a very good guitarplayer

[123MetalRules]

@greatlotrfan kerry taught jef how to play guitar?????? lol wtf

[rocafella142]

@123MetalRules Yes Kerry taught Jeff how to play guitar. When Jeff first joined Slayer he has no idea how to play the guitar he learned from Kerry. It took him about 3 months till he could play fast thrash metal songs.

[Samdbowman]

@123MetalRules the reason why he is, is because Kerry's solos are cleaner than Jeffs solos, if Jeff solos where cleaner than Kerry's then Jeff would be getting more attention.

[123MetalRules]

@Samdbowman I don't think so

[Samdbowman]

@123MetalRules that's my guess but if u listen to kerry's solos and Jeff's solos. Kerry's is more cleaner.

[123MetalRules]

@Samdbowman i listen to slayer for over 15 years. and still i dont think that kerry's solos are more cleaner

[dekkard]

@123MetalRules I stopped listening to Slayer 21 years ago (last good album) and have no clue who plays better ;)

[Beholder505]

@123MetalRules He's not underrated. Kerry is just more in the public eye. Everybody who knows Slayer knows Jeff wrote most of their really great stuff and that he's just as good as Kerry on guitar.

[robertstgo]

@123MetalRules Kerry records both guitar parts, Hanneman just does leads in the studio. :P

[xnagab]

"IF IT OFFENDS YOU, DONT LOOK AT IT, EVERYBODY HAS AN ABILITY TO TURN AWAY" -kerry king...

i read it from a magazine...

[DaPetorian1]

Sounds better than the original when it's played in C#.

[woutereppink]

@DaPetorian1 Do you've got a sample for me?

Don't have/know a guitarist which performs this very well xD

[DaPetorian1]

@woutereppink This is the sample. He's playing it in C# rather than Eb.

[woutereppink]

@DaPetorian1 I fail :/

[Napierala]

riff is nice but he knows shit about how to stroke. Goddamn learn upstrokes, jeez!

[metmass]

@Napierala you're telling the guitarist from SLAYER to learn picking? come on dude.

[cheapcape]

@metmass fuck you dudemeister, you suck King's tiny dick

[metmass]

Do you REALLY care about spending your time here bashing others for no good reason? You're a sad, sad person.

[ferociouspokemachine]

@Napierala Who the fuck needs upstrokes when his downstrokes are brutaler than anyone else's?

[poketfulashelz]

@Napierala Lol you think you know more about strumming than one of the best rhythm guitarists around? Watch him playing War Ensemble he upstrokes like a champ.

[der363Productions]

@Napierala thats Kerry FUCKING King dude. No one tells him how to play. He tells you how to play
