Abbath Guitar Lesson (pt.4)

[crungen5]

is it malmsteen???!!

[Takeskyggen]

i love how he seems to to play better when he sings.

[xXL3gendH4ck3rsXx]

2:41 lol Bang.

[Aepullo68]

Hey Abbath! if you ever come to Sheffield (UK), let's go round the pubs. Drinks are on me!

[kisukehatake210]

I'm starting to enjoy this stuff.

[tatonghudas]

my heart would melt with joy if he wore a corpse paint in this video LMAO

[nocirytas]

H is looking at is guitar like h wants to lick or kiss it or what?

[filth69ify1]

I like his sense of humor 

[GanjikaAranyaka]

Sounds like drop C....no?

[SteelSkin667]

@GanjikaAranyaka Standard D.

[JamesGod08]

His vocals are bloody strong to hear them over the guitar amp

[lovestospooge646]

haha this guy is awesome, HAIL IMMORTAL

[ottawadrummer]

hahah this guy is awesome. He sucks at guitar when he tries too hard, but when he just messes around and sings he's tight and sounds good.

[HabeKeinMitleid]

@ottawadrummer There's a difference between good guitar playing with style and grunge influences and good guitar playing in general.

[ottawadrummer]

@HabeKeinMitleid that made next to no-sense.

[HabeKeinMitleid]

@ottawadrummer Sorry you didn't understand.

[666tedac666]

ABBATH FOR PRESIDENT!

[666tedac666]

ABBATH FOR PRESIDENT!

[MrMethadrine]

i bet he hates 5ths (powerchords)

[WardahTheBlaqQ]

Hahaha! "Someone will figure it out!" Abbath must be one of the coolest metal dudes out there!

[agony664]

Love it!! man, abbath seems like a cool guy!!!!

[davegangrena]

is funny see him trying to teach XD

[BlackjackEddie]

ABBATH HAS GOT THE BIGGEST BALLS EVER!!!!

[laguasa1]

he has passion.. so cute

[slipknotxxxMatheus]

0:25 I love this Vomit

[SterbendDSBM]

@zalinski55 youre wrong, they said in an interview that they have no connection to satan, they sing about grimness, about winter... about Blashyrkh... that's their own world.

Also involving religion in music is a shitty thing !

Besides i think you have no idea of what satanism means...

[Tordenguden]

The reason i respect Immortal so much is due the original guitar riffs...i mean, you can hear it is immortal, the sound is like no others.

[MrExplorer260]

I can't believe that after watching this video I picked up my guitar and composed my best riff so far. He surely has something that makes you pick up your guitar and start writing black metal riffs:D

[EdgeStormcrow]

i love his sound..

[MrMethadrine]

Guitar fucking World always has a shitty guitar sound.How the fuck they set up the gear?All 10?

[robertoszwas]

80666 likes! aint gonna ruin it

[Rlucaciu]

oh lord after watching these guitar lessons i blasted some good old immortal. Such a great band if you can appreciate their strangeness.

[Haddockxyz300]

Mind blowing Riffs,Abbath is one of my biggest inspiration,

[NICK69969]

@Haddockxyz300 fuck ya man whenever I pick up a guitar I always end up putting a lil bit of his style in my playing.

[837IronMaiden]

whats the tuning?

[galatonim]

@837IronMaiden D

[837IronMaiden]

@galatonim thanks

[djc741]

@837IronMaiden D standard. DGCFAD

[diabeticmonkey]

He writes some of the coolest riffs I've ever heard.

[denouncechristianity]

I know a lot of people aren't too impressed with Abbath's playing, but considering he's actually a bass player, I think he deserves credit. I'm definitely incompetent when it comes to playing, but I'm feeling even more so after watching a guy play a chord spanning five frets. Maybe it's nothing new to you all, but it is to me.

[trb3666]

couldn't learn jack shit but he's awesome anyway.

[DomIstKrieg]

thats a class riff at 1:17, that whole sound of sons of northern darkness. I dunno why but it blows my mind everytime. Its the tiny little almost incidental harmony bits that make it sound fucking class. Cant put it into words exactly.

[grosssover]

@666trueblacker ok nije problem pozdrav

[CampbellLewis]

I'm going to forget that he ever said anything about manowar. Jesus.

[grosssover]

@666trueblacker sta ti vidis kod njega nesto sto bi naucio da svirash? osim sto drka gitaru po skalama ko debil!!! gledaj petruccija iz dream theatera pa nauci nesto idiote!!!

[cawbodwabo]

52 yrs old. Recently discovered black metal and Immortal. Wow. Virginia Beach to Pittsburgh. Gotta get there. This guy Blows.

[Rlucaciu]

@cawbodwabo aw it's ok...here's a cookie.

[HRage]

This guy is such a hero! All stars :)

[RORCHACH666]

Abbath is the great man and wonderful guitar player!

[mlody969]

@RORCHACH666 no, he is a poor guitar player

[mickmetallico]

@mlody969 YOU IGNORANT

[mlody969]

@mickmetallico watch Abbath Guitar Lesson (pt.1) and listen what he sad at 0:30 - 0:40

[zolosatiy]

hahah he can't resist singing, AWESOME!

[grosssover]

kakav kreten!!!

[borghot]

@grosssover yeah you are...

[blackandrej]

ABBATH U R SO AWESOME. PLEASE DO MORE AND MORE ALBUMS OF IMMMORTAL. IT S THE BEST BLACM METAL BAND EVER. PLEASE DONT STOP IMMMORTAL GO AHEAD WITH MUSIC

[eveningninja]

Rofl @ 1:26

[BulletProofCupid7]

for anyone who did not understood what was the inspiration of sons of northern darkness. It's Manowar - Gloves of metal. Check this out. I listened to this and then Sons of northern darkness become even more epic. Been listening to this song for like 1 year, now i want more.

[thehoneyeater]

hahaha min 2:19 the armonic face rulz xD

[alexthiong]

what's the song of the first riff please ladies and gentlemen?

[vhfanjack]

@alexthiong Sons of Northern Darkness from the album of the same name. Enjoy.

[xBlasphemYx75]

its the glasses

[Requiemxtoxinnocence]

i love the black metal chords so dark and evil sounding.

[Wodecki3k]

Gloves of Metal... very nice.

[prodigalson56]

Something very Megadethish about that guitar tone! :-D

[DrEviscerator666]

i want a ESP Abbath Signature Guitar!!! I'll Buy It!

[GuitarCoverErik]

@DrEviscerator666

It's an dave mustaine signature guitar esp/ltd.. with build in tremolo ;)! and not the active pick ups so older model i got it hihi;)!

[DrEviscerator666]

@GuitarCoverErik ,I Know this is the ESP/LTD Dave Mustaine But i'm Saying ESP Should make a Abbath Doom Occulta Signature Guitar, If Nergal has a Signature Abbath should have one! \m/ Hail Abbath, Hail Demonaz!

[yzdit]

@MrNonoz LTD Dave mustaine dv8 ?

[ravenBlash]

abbath is the coolest person ever. he is my hero

[DragonRana06]

when he starts singing, i start singing aswell! lol Abbath and Immortal kick ass!!!

[VikEd666]

Ich habe das video oft an der rechten seite gesehn und als ich es dann anklickte dachte ich durch den sound sofort an immortal und bei spätestens bei der 28. sekunde war es klar dass es der sänger/gitarrist von immortal ist:D:D:D

[BulletProofCupid7]

@MrNonoz to be more precise it's ESP LTD old Dave Mustaine Signature. It's the same as LTD V-300, just needs Seymour Duncan pickups.

[BrondolfrMadhorse]

Guitar looks like BC Rich Jr V, with the standerd pick ups that come with the guitar. It actually sounds better then mine and i paid 200 bucks for better pick ups.

[andoss666]

what model of guitar is this ???

[gameduct]

@andoss666 looks like some LTD guitar

[ShittakeBukakke]

How the hell does he make his riffs soo bad ass and wintery sounding? They just sound so cold... I love it.

[munruthel1]

I like how this guy thinks he's not good at all, but truthfully he's the best I've ever seen, I'm so tired of these great guitar players acting like dicks because they think they're so good.

[Vazah1978]

"How did that go?" ... "Someone will figure that out!" rofl what a guy!

[KevinCarey]

are the wide chords a type of powerchord with the pinky??

[hyuugaamida]

@KevinCarey No, they're triads, in this case minor triads. A normal power chord is just the root and the fifth, lacking a third so it's neither major nor minor. If you add a third, it becomes a triad (assuming you're only fingering 3 strings and don't have an octave root/fifth like in a bar chord). If the third you add is flat, you now have a minor triad, the perfect chord for Black Metal.

[gringochucha]

His riffing technique is a thing of beauty.

[deicidalmaniac]

anyone know what pickups he is using? i know he is playing an ESP DV8 with custom Floyd rose.

My emg 81/85 combo just isn't capable..

[ChristBurner]

anal cunt covered gloves of metal.....just throwin that out there.haha

[francoizzz]

superb..

[BulletProofCupid7]

i just can't get this chord in ~ 1:02 . Pinky on 11th fret(?) and just can't figure out the rest ones. Any help?

[deicidalmaniac]

@BulletProofCupid7

he plays this song in D standard (DGCFAD) the chord i think you are reffering to is played .

D - open

G - 3rd fret

C- 6th fret

His pinky is on the 6th fret.

[BulletProofCupid7]

@deicidalmaniac

I just figured it out by myself i think.

As for me it's

|D -----7---

|G -----9---

|C ----10---

Or 8 at G, i may be wrong cause i just don't have my guitar in sight right now but as for me this one sounds exactly like this one which he is playing.

[angel2hell]

@BulletProofCupid7 it's 8 at G:)

[BulletProofCupid7]

@angel2hell yup correct. Now I'm completely sure.

[fairlystupidjello]

I wanna play guitar now lol cya

[guitarman069]

hilarious....id rather watch this guy over any good guitar player/shredder...hes much more entertaining..lol

[TurboLaffe]

that first grunt at 0:30 is so priceless!

[mrrectumgrinder]

i love his face when he's playing, immortal ist krieg

[kiloelo]

i heard he has really bad tendonitis from all the repetitive riffage throughout the years

[Kalmahborn]

@kiloelo It wasn't Abbath. It's the previous guitarist/lyricist, Demonaz. He still writes all the lyrics for the band and helps manage it but can't play guitar for them anymore due to tendonitis.

[darkdemymetal]

he's so natural when sing...abbath is very great ^^

[Emulgator01]

How does he get that... "noisy" undertone in his distortion? Every time he touches the strings it sounds like there's something wrong with the speakers xD Any idea how to get that kind of tone?

[peevishly]

he maybe a legend of a guitarist, but he still isn't an egomaniac douchebag who boasts all he time....he has the balls to admit his mistakes.....good on you abbath keep on shredding until the end of the world :D

[deathreigning]

he said in part one of this that he doesn't know very much lead stuff.... Also, he said he's a horrible teacher and he hasn't been acting cocky- I find it rather funny.

[nightfireivey]

@deathreigning The guy was originally a bassist in Immortal. I think its pretty amazing how much he can do with the guitar.

[intrepgun]

@nightfireivey the fuck you sayin, bass isn't 'as difficult an instrument'? ;)

[nightfireivey]

@intrepgun Mmmmm no Its more surprising how he comes up with these complex riffs with the guitar being a Bassist for who knows how long. :3

[Hverglemer]

@peevishly

word man!

[garmrofficial]

@peevishly I'm the same lol usually I cus and start over I refuse to keep going with an ego lol it makes a person look like a prick when they do....I learned from a teacher....fuck up...admit it...start over.

[BLACKanimebrother]

I want his picking hand.

[monkeyboy6676]

kick ass riffs

[mihawk1]

at 0:24 now that was fucking sick.

[UserNameForYeeTube]

I LOVE when he sticks out his tongue and can't resist singing. :DD

He seems like an honest, funny and nice guy, and not some überkvltbmdickhead.

[assphinktersaiswhat]

its the same with pulling the faces =P

[Tombking2]

@UserNameForYeeTube Yeah, thats why i like him, compared to every "internet tough" persoon who needs to compensate for their dick by beingg "satanic, kvlt, evil and necr0". He sounds very nice.

[DrEviscerator666]

He acts like a Kid Doing the Pinch harmonix! Zakk Please teach Lord Abbath How to Do the Pinch Harmonic correctly that would be awesome! \m/

[BM666FR]

He looks to be very sympathic and he is a gor for me

[cssNuramoN]

der typ is einfach gott xd

[Caisamo]

a very hard chord 0:18

[maksphoto78]

@Caisamo That's why he makes that sound. "Aaaarrrrrgh" :o)

[Deathrash89]

as a self tought guitarist it is funny to see that he is still in kind of that position .... when he plays things slowly ^^

when his tongue sticks out to concentrate ^^

[FrischluftMetaler]

hehe yes his tongue ^^

he is just one who bring me to the Black Metal !

\m/ love him

[ScandinavianMetal666]

why is he so cool... Wish it was me hahaXD

[nickyrazz]

you gotta love those facial expressions

[Megamaniac610]

Hell yeah Abbath likes Manowar!

[Eirik27194]

Who doesn't? :P

[psychichorns1]

2 22 nice teeth

[black3rn3ll]

2:32 - 3:02 - Holy fuck... sexy riff...

Anger rides with the one that knows no fear...

Greatest Immortal riff ever...

[hjoermungand]

agreed. this is really really hot

[Mangledcorpse]

sexy glasses ^^

[ledukk]

"big sun glasses, cool band"

fenriz

:))

[AgentHomer]

not emperor sunglasses, big sunglasses. very important, cool band always big sunglasses.

[Biondo820]

a neo pagan is somebody who believes in ancient Pagans Gods; in this case we're talking about Viking Norse Gods.. u know, Immortal Blashyrkh is very similar to the Valhalla!

[BaraPontus]

love his black metal vox ^^ \m/

[PhongeNay]

WOW!!! Thumbed down because of this? People are sick sometimes... I'm sure Abbath himself would laugh. ABBATH RULES F'CKERS!!!

[dynamitharry91]

lol look at 1.45, hes so proud :)

[Mulldarran]

I love the way he sings, haha. Immortal rules!

[SD3255]

Lmao. All of a sudden "Oh this riff! *Pause!*" Hahaha. Abbath is awesome.

[LedKenji666]

its yngwie malmsteen's brother!!!! lol

[Biondo820]

the pentacle has nothing to do with satan in its original meaning,its something more esoteric. Abbath and Immortal are neo-pagans,not satanists!

[LordArckadius]

That's actually a baphomet. If you look closely, you'll see it...

[dynamitharry91]

Whats a neo pagan?

[jodex96]

Immortal uses lots of minor thirds.. And it's good..

[LedKenji666]

yea unless alot of bands out there they do something else than major and minor 5th (wich are both the same)

[jodex96]

That's true

[beer4life101]

how come immortal dont right about satan but abath is wearing a pentagram

[WartoothisGod]

The pentagram is a pre-satanic, pre-christian, pagan symbol

[LedKenji666]

okay heres the explanation some bands think satan exist and they are stoopid in counter part immortal only does it for teh lulz

[skunk0rock]

he listen to manowar. \m/

[xCobhcxx]

i love his voice!

[CarcPazu]

This guy really cracks me up. That's great!

[ShaxDr87]

Yeah lol. Abbath seems kinda hyper.

[HikoSeijuroXIII]

This man has more character and charisma than any other person on the planet.

[ItsNotaTuhmah]

The whole black metal tutorial! fast riffage and grim vocals!

[timmmmkay]

correct

[1MorA1]

its not just a guitar lession its also vocal lessons haha

[GizmoDK]

1.29 to 1.32 - Øhh, lol! Great Abbath! :D

[deathanddoommetaller]

Gotta love this lesson. Who cares if he fucks up, atleast he doesn't do a ton of takes like trivium obviously did, its black metal and he's proving that he can be raw about his guitaring

[colapseben]

ABBATH FOR LIVE

[Mangledcorpse]

lol, abbath is a ffuckin true legend lol, he looks like OZZY when he's taling

[dtjesus]

2:30 lol

[Goatchrist666]

Definitely* he cant be a guitar teacher xD, although he has a very good sence of humor xD

[andyby]

He could teach you to play fast. :p

[Typhvs666]

It's a lesson.

[TheSorrowedMan]

Thank you captain obvious

[Typhvs666]

Go listen to Nevermore, fgt.
