☼Kevstew - Alaska (Full) - Between the Buried and Me☼

[BowlerBitesLane]

nice job with the end bit that was something i havent saw done before, quite inspiring

[edgargtz94]

I have always wondered how the holy mother of music do they create this? it's too damn complex for a human mind to comprehend.

[nokbgguitar]

Nice

[Rawbstuh]

:12-:14 is so sick

[ddrumaster]

Who puts on a coat and scarf before they shred on guitar? Seriously though excellent cover. 5 stars

[tailtaptailtap]

@ddrumaster Jared Leto?

[GLP68]

[S1RVicTOR]

One of the only parts that I'm having real trouble with is the tap in about bar 7 any advice on it?

[Captin9Fingers]

[sommervilleTRS117]

HOLY MOTHER OF SWEEP PICKING

[TheAustimusPrime]

Dude, why are you so good? haha

[MrOrganiic]

anyone who calls this bad doesn't know Waggoner's style. this cover is spot on! i mean of course i'd like to see Kev's own shreds using the same techniques but hat's off for learning it man.

respect.

[drummernathan123]

excellent cover.

[plou0018]

Diggen this. Your technique is your technique, versatile only to yourself. Make your technique your BITCH!

[MTOWNS83R]

Respect this is so good I don't think I'd ever be able to play this

[DarkBlackDiamond]

Wow!! that guitar is?

[AnthonyXwearsXgucci]

An Ernie Ball Musicman.

[OhhYeahh64]

your really good dude. :)

i love this song, im glad you covered it.

& i hate sweeps :/ lol, im still working on mine.

[Mapon123]

I have that guitar :D

[tashhast]

lmao, omg you look so young....

[xXRequiremXx]

whats your advice on practicing sweeps?

[WhereFearless]

Keep pushing yourself to learn songs you never think you could.

It's what's kept me going the last 5 years.

[evh5150freak]

if u want some good advice if ur trying to learn how to just practice alot< but if u can but just want practice learn the begging of this song and work like hell or lern the short chelsea grin sweep in there song crewcabanger and its easy but has a lil strectch and if u can try to get as fast as possible and then slow it down to normal speed and ul notice great SUCCESS! haha

[monsterofmuaythai]

make sure to start small. 3 strings.

[xddrparadise]

Fuck what everyone else is saying. You were good then, and I bet you're even better now.

[jparker17]

nice job bro

[Hollyjollywheatfield]

Amazzing(:

[chrisij910]

You seem like the only fag to me.

[BloodoftheScribe13]

You know he is good so that was the only thing you could attack. Nice work retard.

[ChefJeremy2001]

then if he is so bad why dont u put a vid up of you playing it.

[disturbed493]

You retards that are on here bashing Kev and calling him a faggot and that he sucks, well then step up to the plate and back your shit talking up by posting a video response of you playing this better and if you don't then shut the F@#K Up and go back to sucking on your mom's tit you inconsiderate weak ass guitar playing virgin! This dude is awesome and it takes tremendous amount of heart and soul to learn the guitar! RESPECT THE TALENT!! Kev your Freaking Awesome!! Keep Rocking Bro!!

[sonnythestuntman]

[tamatitan21]

[XxDregeNxX]

[Astralsreams]

[ChadTheeLad]

[ebaty1]

[yootubesucks123]

[Factzxx]

[Joetheamazingguy]

nice job man

[metal4life109]

wat is your setup?

[tildaar14]

Nice shredding dude, probably would make Dusty and Paul proud.

[PalmtreeBand]

ha whos dusty

[Alex0022]

You ARE a fag, zacathin. You wish you could play guitar like him.

[Gummmmy]

I only learned the intro...slack me... took me a long time hahah * * * * * good job duder

[Jagstaldincola]

5 stars and favorited

[xR34P3Rx]

sick

[dawson777shreds]

This song itself may not be the "most progressive" thing in the world.

But go to listen to their new album Colors.

Not a single song.

The entire album, and tell me that's not progressive.

If they weren't progressive, Dream Theater wouldn't have personally asked them to go on the Progressive Nation Tour 2 years ago.

[alexropo]

check out scale the summit, on progessive nation.

if you dig musicianship.

[Gonjir]

scale the summit is awesome

[GanjaKid420]

they're so fuckking proggy now it makes me sick

wheres the REAL METALCORE from the selftitled gone?!?!?!

[jacksonbaker94]

@dawson777shreds I was there...It was bad ass.

[boredsk8er]

5 stars from me

[l1quidsnak3]

freaking wow

[TeaBaggins]

dude youre a baddass nice poppy by the way. lest we forget!

[ebaty1]

This song may not be progressive, but as a band they are. Just listen to Informal Gluttony or Prequel to the Sequel, or even Selkies for that matter...

[taylorissuperflyman]

hey dude whats that thing right below the nut on your guitar btw sweet video

[fatcat32090]

the thing below the nut is like a small piece of cloth. its to muffle out all the extra notes during sweeps. instead of doing it with his palm that thing takes care of it. im not hating because ive been playing guitar for 9 years and cant sweep so mad props haha that just what that is

[kevstew26]

It's just a hairband :P It doesn't mute the strings well but i use it for recording purposes cause clear audio is brutal to get when making a video

[scottmajor03]

yo man..im moving to oshawa in late august to go to school at Durham...check out my videos on here and let me know if your down for any kind of project?

[EdmundRoweVlog]

this is a sick cover but you look proper hot in that bloody coat

[kevstew26]

Lol i'm from canada and this was during a cold winter day. Heater wasn't working so trust me if anything i was freezing lol

[EdmundRoweVlog]

oh rite, yh my grandad worked there once coz he worked for pie records. he said it was really cold there

still good cover tho :)

[PandaSucrer18]

First time I see a FULL cover of Alaska. Perfect!

[Morelloforever]

No such thing as too much btbam dude.

[kevstew26]

Lol i know. I actually want to learn these songs cause they're all so freaking good.

But i have a really good idea of how btbam writes music now knowing all of colors and some other songs so i want to learn other things also.

I learn different techniques and ideas on writing music when i learn from a whole bunch of other bands :P So for now a little break from btbam to improve my skills :P

[chicken6111]

hahahaha ur pinky finger is so crazy

good cover

[kevstew26]

Haha i know. Im trying to fix it for the past 5months or so and it's a lot better

[dropmolly143]

I have a request, please cover backwards marathon. Kickass video i subscribed.

[kevstew26]

You know i want to lol. But my guitar is in the shop and when i get it back im going to be doing other covers cause ive done to much btbam, check out my colors cover.

But someday ill do backwards marathon and autodidact and thanks for the sub

[elirbeil]

this is so good

[shadow6463]

you kinda remind me of adam lambert, except your a badass guitarist

*puts up shield*

[LukeeeFTW]

I don't see why everyones getting pissy

awesome song

awesome cover

well done dude!

[coulrophobia0o0o3]

nice bro was this song kinda hard to learn

[boXHead257]

Diggin the coat

[NICK4206996]

a little bit slow on the intro.. but great cover man. im trying to learn how to sweep. its difficult.

isn't it hot in your room with the coat on? lol jk man.

[kevstew26]

Lol that can be explained cause i used a tape delay effect in the intro cause it sounded better than just reverb,

And im from canada in winter so it was pretty cold lol

[NICK4206996]

ohh yeah that explains it.

and CANADA?? me too man. im in ontario, its pretty cold here in the winter too :P

[hxcktm]

great cover

[guitargod120]

haha your an emo kid

[kornchild66]

haha your a jealous fag

[guitargod120]

haha nope, i don't want to be a emo lip ring kid, i like classic rock and rock. Alaska is the only death metal/screamo song i like.

[noname5495]

Wow, screamo? Id rather be an emo than an egotistical retard like you

[guitargod120]

What the crap does egotistical mean? And I would call Alaska a screamo song because the singer screams as he is singing ;) THATS WHAT SCREAMO IS LOL, and y r u so defensive? I am not a jealous fag because I do not want to be emo and I am not gay. So too bad you didn't win this argument hahahahahahahahahaha

[noname5495]

Lol the way you talk about urself and how you randomly bash this kid who plays guitar a thousand times better than you is why i called you egotistical. And no, it's not screamo, lol but i wont bother

And where did being gay come from? Are you hiding something about urself and to cover it up you insult random ppl on the net to make urself feel better.

Dude enjoy the cover instead of being a douchebag cause right now your coming off really stupid the more you talk

hahahahahahahaha

[guitargod120]

LOL i laughed when i read this! First, I think this kid is great at guitar and yes he is better than me and how do you know how good i am at guitar? You've never seen me play Second, look up screamo.

Third, you called me jealous fag so i suppose you meant i was jealous and i was gay since fag in slang means gay.

Fourth Why Do you even care? I called this kid emo because he is clearly is! My exacts words were haha your an emo kid and that turned into im a jealous fag that sucks at guitar

[sawilikes]

Screamo isn't a genre. Its what idiodic people classify any kind of music that isn't cookie cutter pop bullshit. Learn your music loser.

[guitargod120]

Dude, I pwned your face off in a youtube argument! hahahahahaha suck it. Reply if you dare. Muhahahahah

[kevstew26]

Omg you wont shutup.

I love the privalege of blocking ppl

[ListentoGenesis]

what a diiiick!

[flupusbarbosa561]

did you really just call Alaska a screamo song?

you fail

big time

please die in a fire

[coulrophobia0o0o3]

listen to other btbam songs

[DystopianEmpire]

Please die. Don't disgrace Btbam by calling them screamo. Learn some genres please.

[guitargod120]

Are you frickin kidding me. Please explain what screamo is to me then.......this is screamo. There screaming words of death and other things. There screaming and its metal and its for emo people. That = SCREAMO

p.s. I'm not emo, this is the only "screamo" song i like

[DystopianEmpire]

Screamo is the worst descriptive word for music i can think of. For the simple fact it only pertains to the singing. It says nothing about the song structure, style or complexity. Its to simple of a definition to be taken seriously.

p.s. sorry Kevstew. :(

[kevstew26]

Lol i don't care. I just didn't think the kid would go on with the arguing for this long.

There's no point in arguing with ppl like that cause they''ve obviously been retarded since birth

[LeperAffinity]

screamo is basically harsher emo, easy

[DystopianEmpire]

define Emo for me then please.

[LeperAffinity]

just listen to:

sunny day real estate

mineral

the promise ring

and you'll understand

[skatetrash666]

wow what a dumbass... oh and yeah this cover fuckin kicks ass

[IRHS112]

First of all, no song or band should be labeled emo or screamo, just because they sound ridiculous. This is progressive metal. Note the very complex rhythms and low growls and deep, raspy scream.

[KYamada416]

k this is definately not progressive.

[IRHS112]

Yes it is.

[PtH888999]

It's not even death metal lol.....Not even progressive death metal.

[MudTide1993]

The vocals have nothing to do with the technicality of the instruments.

They're progressive.

[lucadepu]

not many people do covers cause after the initial sweeping the song starts sucking huge balls

[coulrophobia0o0o3]

not really the song as a whole is really cool u r just retarded

[lucadepu]

suck it homo

[lucadepu]

gay emo hair

[RomeSkateFoSho]

most people would completely butcher a BTBAM song, but you covered it very nicely. 5/5*

[gregchips2390]

He muffed his strings, dirty emo cant play clean if his life depended on it.

[viper1991]

oh jesus, excuse his technique since he found a way to do it easier =/

There's no such thing as cheating in music.

[gregchips2390]

wtf are you talking about?

[noname5495]

He did a cover of a fucking hard song necrophagist - seven without the hairband to prove idiots like you it dosent do anything. He uses it for recording purposes ya douchebag.

I bet you cant play shit on the guitar ya turd

[noname5495]

Just checked your profile and you like angels and airwaves, your more emo than this kid who plays btbam and necrophagist

[lucadepu]

necroFAGist

[noname5495]

Aww man, i hate it when parents let their mentally challenged children go on the computer and make youtube accounts

[gregchips2390]

since when is angels emo? and i notice your stalking this emos page, is he your boy friend? gotta stand up for your man right fagot? you dirty emo lay off the dick queer.

[nhbjake]

damn awesome man...Im also a big fan of BTBAM...as well as Dream theater... You listen? Do you write any of your own stuff? If so, Id like to hear it.

[MetalVideoMassacre]

HOLY TITS.!

[mrtle5]

did you tab this yourself? or where did you find the tab?

[espltd400]

Very smooth, I enjoyed listening, keep it up bro.

[murderassacre]

This is ace man, 5 stars.

[jontheliar]

whats goin on with your first fret after the nut? is that a mute of some kind?

[kevstew26]

It's just a hairband, it mutes the strings so it doesn't give as much feedback and makes notes clearer

[Mast4rchief]

TEACH ME SWEEPS YOU ARE INSANE

[theguyyounevermet]

do you use that scrunchie on your nut to mute the strings while doing sweeps?

[SOADchuchufan39]

Very nice!

[XBuLLetSotHEhEARtX]

Sick Cover Dude haha you got it man

[asharp12]

u got skill nigga. try turning ur guitar up just a bit more tho in ur next videos. makes it a little more easier to criticize (constructively that is lol) and see what mistakes u can fix.

nonetheless , sikk cover dude, u nailed it. check some of my vids out. i have yet to post a between the buried and me vid but u might like some of my other stuff.

[aznmatt301]

dress however the fuck you want to. that dudes just a jabroni. and i must say. your pretty fucking righteous at some geetar.

[fallaway6554]

Oh my God, is that a Stranglehold poster?

My respect for you has never been higher.

[FluffMuffTater]

Dude I love all your covers and love your style but if you love btbam change your hair because your coming off as a punk rock / emo fan.

[xXemoidolXx]

theres nothing wrong with his hair.

[bobvanka]

listening to this band doesnt mean he has to dress metal, metal isnt about your appearance

[kevstew26]

thanks man but man you should hear what i get in my necrophagist covers it's got nothign on his comment. If you havent seen my covers yet, theyre a death metal band and they're fans are harsh and really just plain douchebags lol

[bobvanka]

what a coincidence, because necrophagist are my favourite fucking band : ) i saw them on the 13th in sydney australia, best show ever, will deffers check out ur covers.

cheers dude

[kevstew26]

Except for you, your not a douchebag lol

[bobvanka]

lol thanks, there are alot of people out there who think being metal means u have to dress it, live it and breathe it. and they think u cant listen to anything else but metal. so really they are the posers them selves. but they dont get it lol. btw excellent covers man. i cant begin to imagine how hard it would be to cover such hard songs : )

[lespaulspecial9]

music is even about your appearance unless you are the jonas faggots

[bobvanka]

lol the jonas brothers can suck my balls

[lespaulspecial9]

ya i know they suck every fags balls including their own

[bl00dfusi0n]

no it is not retard.

[lespaulspecial9]

i meant to say music isnt about your appearance

[crewcabanger45]

it doesnt look emo.

[wocdrummer]

This is really good musically. But you don't have emotion man.

[Gonjir]

you cant really say that man some people dont show there emotion on the outside but feel it on the inside everyone is diffrent haha

[kevstew26]

Haha exactly gonjir. But also im more concentrated on my timing in this video because this song has many tempo changes and it needs a lot of focus but still im not numb to what im playing lol

[nchiplin]

sounds like your a touch slow. Nice though.

[kevstew26]

actuallly im not, im using a tape delay effect slightly throughout the intro because i thought it sounded good rather than just reverb

[nchiplin]

Ah, that explains it. Well it's a great job regardless dude. Keep it up.

[kevstew26]

Thanks man

Feel free to subscribe cause im tyring to cover the colors album and im almost done :)

Check out sun of nothing or ants of the sky and more in my channel :P

[nchiplin]

Will do bud. Please do Vela, Together We Await The Storm by The Human Abstract.

[Gir3993]

not bad at all man, if you've only been playing for a few years(like your youtube suggests) then imagine where you will be in 10 years.

[gangstuhjono]

good fucking cover man!!!!

5/5

[chasingmidnightagain]

awsomeness i told people to check this video out on my myspace if you have one could you plz add me man you rock. i'm trying to learn this song right now but the sweep picking is really wearing me out. you rock man!
