[neojimmy721]

[MrBreakingBenjamin]

[scbene]

thanks MrBreakingBenjamin! could try. have had that requested several times, but hard to find a singer for BB songs :)

[meknassi666]

waaw the james hetfield guitar signature

i would kill for that guitar

great work guys

[scbene]

thanks meknassi666! yeah, i wish i had that guitar too!

[TheScareButton]

guitars sound killer

[scbene]

thanks TheScareButton :)

[condemned75]

Excellent work!

[scbene]

thanks very much condemned75!

[tochiro1959]

dude that was an awsome cover

[scbene]

hey, thanks very much tochiro1959!

[screamindaemon]

I agree with most of the postings here. Singer can't quite match that of Sully's, but to be fair, the singing is the hardest part of music to match to the original.

You still get five stars from me gentlemen. Excellent work. I'm a huge fan of all your collaborations.

[JackMelentolos]

The voice could use a little work, but that's understandable cause Sully Erna's voice is effing intense, your singer's range just can't match with Erna. His deeper, and screaming vocals were spot on though.

Bass was very solid, both guitar's were nearly impeccable, great tremolo nearly the entire song, and great timing.

The drummer had a great steady beat. (I personally play bass, and we bassists REALLY APPRECIATE WHEN A DRUMMER IS STEADY, it's almost impossible to miss our timing =D)

[scbene]

yes, very hard to sing like Sully but I think Russell did an awesome job :) thanks for the great comment Jack :)

[joeabro1]

great cover nice collaboration.

[scbene]

thanks for the kind words joeabro1 :)

[xdoris10]

great shitt dude, definately wish i could play it ahha

[scbene]

well thanks xdoris10 :)

[benitudort]

the voice is a little bit off

nice vid

[Stylop11]

awsome !!!

the singer is really good

and the rest of the band too

[scbene]

thanks so much Stylop!

[legorocks3]

Fantastic Job! One thing, The guy who's singing need's a bit of practise. Other then that, it was incredible!

[supersucker72]

badass

[CaMpErS666]

good video men

[scbene]

thanks CaMpErs666 :)

[Ritchie360]

is that the james hetfield les paul? =O super cool.

[scbene]

why yes it is Ritchie :P

[Ritchie360]

jealous =(

[beninjamin]

superb!

[scbene]

thanks benjamin!

[JesseGaspar]

[ninjamonkeys147963]

[SelfDestruction7]

Nice job on the solo.

[burnthairturd]

This is the best!! You really nail that Godsmack tone too!!

[scbene]

thanks very much burnthaiturd :P

[jonttu687]

Hi scbene, nice cover, and I really love 'Awake'

[scbene]

thank U jonttu687! me too! my fav Godsmack song EVER!

[bflyte]

Is it weird I like the guitars just a little more than the original?

And I'd love to see some more Breaking Benjamin, particularly some of their heavier stuff...you guys are a testament to what you can really do with communication and talent these days, keep it up!

[scbene]

no not weird bflyte, we will take that as a huge compliment man! thanks! i would like to collab some BB stuff as well. i will see what i can do :P

[insystem7]

wow this is just like the song! but the vocals should be a little more agressive

[AmKip]

rly good vid, 5*

[scbene]

thanks AmKip!

[tragedyerror]

its so creative guys.really good performance...

[scbene]

thank U very much tragedyerror :P

[VolcomCody666]

Hey this is great, i love Godsmack!!!! (:

[scbene]

thanks so much VolcomCody666 :)

[yairoka]

I do really love your collaborations..

how do you people play together? isn't there a lot of lagg? =p

[scbene]

we mix the audio together separately in Adobe Audition and I mix the videos in Sony Vegas :)

[Toxinator]

very very good just as all of your videos...I really like it

Maybe the vocals could sound somewhat more aggressive and with some more volume. But nice anyway!

[scbene]

thanks Toxinator :) so glad you liked it! it's an awesome song!

[legorocks3]

Good job!!

[scbene]

thanks man!

[harvesterharvester]

Great team You Are fellas

[Godsmack90192]

yo Shane, I'm gettin a RP350 sometime in June, when i get a job, lol. but i'll prolly be making some vids and stuff and wondering if you're interested in working together. Also, i was wondering if u (or us eventually) could do a cover of Greed by godsmack. Hit me back, thanx bro

[scbene]

hey man! the 350 is awesome. wish i had it :) well right now i have a huge backlog of collabs and tutorials that i have to get done and little spare time to spend on them so it will be awhile before i can take on any new projects. but i will keep ya in mind for some future Godsmack stuff dude!

ROCK ON DUDE!

[sk8ergurl1324]

what kind of equipment would i need to record directly to my computer? i was thinking of recording some songs i wrote for my band like this but i dont know what to buy or how much it would cost.

great vid btw

[scbene]

for guitar i use a Digitech RP250, cost about $150. i use Nero Wave Editor (comes with Nero 8 Ultra) for about $50.

[sk8ergurl1324]

cani use the digitech RP250 for other instruments as well?

[scbene]

yes, but i don't know how the result will be.

[mustangcobain65]

Hey Scbene, you guys should do Them Bones or Would? or Man in the box by Alice in Chains.

[bmit989]

Man in the box is a good one.

[KDMJ1095]

hey, scbene, I really like your collabs. I'm Keith, and I play guitar and sing. I'm getting a camera soon and I'm interested in making a collab video, so, if you want to make one, just contact me, ok?

[scbene]

ok. you'll need to be able to record your audio in high quality directly into your computer for collabs though.

[KDMJ1095]

I'll see what I can do.

Do you have any ideas for songs though?

Cuz I was thinking either Sanitarium by Metallica, or Otherside by Red Hot Chili Peppers. For Sanitarium I would play rhythm guitar and/or sing, and for Otherside I would just sing. If you have any other ideas though, tell me cuz your collabs that I have seen are very creative

[Bridgend11]

Fucking cool collaboration!!! The solo rocks!:D

Respect from Hungary

[brentolsonbrent]

deadly

[WCWDOA]

U jamed out. Awesome.

[GuitarFinland]

Yeah thanks dude :D I will use my new camera(you can read what camera in my channel) so the quality will fit well in your videos :) But give me information about collaboration cover if you are doing that :)

-Riiko

[GuitarFinland]

I really like your covers man :D those are awesome! I hope that we can make collaboration cover in the future for example one metallica cover :D but anyway awesome cover and keep on rocking man!

[scbene]

thanks man. i use Sony Vegas Pro 7 to do my videos. i use video cropping and key framing to do most of the things you see and just fading teh videos from one to the other. it's actually pretty easy just takes alot of time and patience :P

[TheCakeGuru]

Those are some sexy les pauls ^.^

[scbene]

LOL, thanks TheCakeGuru :P

[tom9955]

not les pauls lol there esps. awesome guitars

[scbene]

i actually prefer the EC series ESP guitars over Les Pauls :P

[tom9955]

So do I. I can't stand regular les pauls for some reason.

[Bl33d1ng1ns1d3]
