As I Lay Dying - The Sound of Truth (guitar cover)

[ImThatGuy629]

She's a girl get over it....Side note, good cover.

[grimm9673]

Seriously guys enuf with the boner comments. but yah amazing cover. and good choice of guitar.

[ddillybar1]

Is it possible for a girl to do anything on the internet without hordes of disgusting strangers exploding all over their keyboards? Rhetorical question. Seriously, try saying something nice to a girl without mentioning your boner or her tits once in awhile, morons. Nice cover btw, MerelBx.

[jfilannino]

killed it! you did really good on the solo too.

[DLT1990]

you have literally dropped my jaw from your playing...damn

[LazyKoreanBum]

[jontheskillful]

Do you like Periphery? If so, do you think you would be able to cover Letter Experiment? This cover is very nice, by the way.

[777breebree]

You should learn Herod's Demise by In The Midst Of Lions

[c4tze]

y u so cute?

[MrOfficialIvan]

Can I ask you something?

can you do cover of this song "Benighted-Icon"

If you like it :)

[MerelBx]

@MrOfficialIvan I can do that, but I think that song is to easy to play. Maybe a other song?

[Othel11]

@MerelBx just wanna ask something, how did you build up your pinky strength? what exercises are you doing? and for how long?

thanks :) and btw, my mouth was wide open out of amazement while watching your cover

[Chaudapeau]

If An ocean Between us is one of the best metal albums, do all the album !

[DavidMultiCanon]

thumbs up who came for boobies and left with music...

[e354s45]

love the Ibanez

[mackillscupcakes]

marry me...

[4hatefake]

awesome !!

[MDSlaps]

This is hella raw. Any tips on hitting the palm muted open D's during the main riff? Definitely one of the songs I'd wanna cover, but that part has always tripped me up for this song (and I need work on the solo too).

[medullaoblongata21]

I think im in love.....

[SchecterGuy14]

[EvPointMaster]

I'm fapping to this. (well actually not really)

[Muraz72]

You can't even do it. Either practice more, or stop posting videos. This is horrible to hear, even for me. Oh my god.

[imChelseaLynn]

[thespartenkid]

@PloXskate wrong, actual drop D is D-G-C-F-A-D

[noahlikeplaydrums1]

@thespartenkid actually D-G-C-F-A-D is whole steo down drop D is D-A-D-G-B-E

[BadBilly721]

@noahlikeplaydrums1 ah yes, you are correct, thank you :) im suprised they tune that high up, i put 56-13s (ernie ball 7 string pack, so using 4 nickels and 2 steel) so i cant really tune that high D: haha i wanted to learn parallels

[thespartenkid]

@PloXskate you're referring to D-standard

[DarthBrauni]

I like you!!! ^^

[wrestling45]

This is an awesome cover! You think you could do a cover of "The Plague" by As I Lay Dying? That would be sweet!

[MerelBx]

@wrestling45 Maybe I'm really bussy with my study, so maybe when I have plenty of time I will do a new cover.

[SemoxZombieCore]

Great job!!!! :)

[thenextchicken]

@mmoking1 I bought a UX2 from Line 6. But there are more and better interfaces.

[asserturia]

verry nice ;) hoelang speel je al gitaar? :) x

[MerelBx]

@asserturia Nu 4/5 jaar.

[asserturia]

@MerelBx netjes ;) lessen gelvolgd of op jezelf ? :) ( ik speel 3j en half nu opmezelf alles ) kan je confined eens coveren op youtube ? :p zou u die eens graag zien spelen ^^ groetjes ^^

[XcrazyraiderX]

\m/

[andreasschoedl]

best cover i heard of this song!

[afrozenflames]

Oh shit!

[TheOpakalolo]

@MerelBx is that a Jackson Matt Tuck Signature guitar in the background? they stopped selling them...wonder how come? oh, and...by the way... FUCKING AWESOME COVER!!! \m/-.-\m/

[asserturia]

@TheOpakalolo no that's not really the exact signature , matt tuck has another jackson model , matt has the black silver sparkle signature

[MerelBx]

@TheOpakalolo No it's not a signature guitar. Just a normal Randy Rhoads with Floyd Rose and I changed my bridge element for a seymour duncan black out element.

[DemonWeasel1990]

freakin sweet!

[TheOneandOnlyRia]

Please tell me that is a Steve Vai signature guitar!

[MerelBx]

@TheOneandOnlyRia It's not a Steve Vai Signature guitar but just a cheap korean shitty guitar, that I bought for 50 euro.

[smans03]

i wanted to see if you could play my fav part of the song flawlessly, when i see you rocked on the build up of it at 2:38 i was thinkin " yo i think shes got it " next thing you know, 3:02 comes along ( my fav part ) and the whole part after you NAILED it ... VERY impressed! keep up the good work!!!

[george079511]

[toxictwinsmne]

nice cover!

[fein4you20]

YOU ARE A BADASS CHICK!!!! <3 XOXO

[wasewa1]

You are soo good ;).

[Sam132161]

How long did you play guitar and what does it take to be a good guitarist??

[MerelBx]

@Sam132161 I play for four or five years now. I don't think that I'm a good guitarist, but I think you should have fun in making music and it don't think that you should always take it serious.

[Orimthekeyacolite]

@MerelBx

"I don't think that I'm a good guitarist"

Please tell me you're joking! How on earth could it get better?!! Those are of the fastest riffs I've encountered and you play it all close to perfect. Name a song you are not good enough for)

I mean, I've learned to be comfortable with the fact that there are thousands of people better than me, but when a girl plays like goddes and still thinks she's not good - that really gives a butthurt for a mediocre))))

[Sollaris83]

@Sam132161 I have played guitar for 11 years. I know from experience, if you wanna get as good as you want, you need to be completely serious in practice. Goof off and have fun at a show after you know good and well how to play what you like. Obviously it doesn't matter how much you practice or how serious you are if you just wanna play guitar in spare time for fun. Hope that helps. :)

[Fuckgagayestim]

YOU ARE GORGEOUS

[RUSHxAVENGER]

most of the people commented..said marry me...whats up with that...just enjoy the video ..
