ur fucking hot as hell!lol Great job!this is like my fave song!lol

[jekdop]

nice

where do you get the tabs?

[iiLavender]

Nice Gibson SG. Special? Anyhow, what Guitarist4Life1210 said, use your bridge pickups. As for your tuners, get locking tuners, expensive? Yes. Worth it? Yes. In my experience, I'd suggest you get EMG pickups, the 81/60 combo. You'll want it for its deep, rhythm guitar sound. Otherwise, just don't take drugs, alright? ;D

[atla18]

I did use my bridge pickup in thsi, it's only an Epi SG though. This is old, I have a Gibson LP now, but my camera has been too messed up for any new videos.

I've played an eclipse series with an 81/60 combo and the 60 was a great pickup, I don't see why people still use the 85 tbh.

And no drugs in this body actually

[emy3276]

well done, in my opinion

(:

[omarpopcorn3]

u look like u do drugs if u smoke weed. ALL MY RESPECTS!TO YOU!if u do meth GO FUCK OFF.btw guitar play was okay.

[smelserdude1]

um... dude... theres been a lot of comments saying retarded shit, but.... that was really bad, you have the potential to play it right, just learn the song first, WAAAYYY off.

[atla18]

i played it from a perfect tab.

looking back now, i did fuck it up a decent amount, but with the volume as it was it seems much worse.

and im playing a different guitar part than most of the people on youtube did.

[asklcnvivdf]

tabs never work for me. i have to see people play a song visually. i dont know if that helps.

[tomboyraccoon]

omfg ur hott! lol

[atla18]

thanks lol

[Guitarist4Life1210]

Use the other pick-up, make sure you're tuned, and use a little more distortion.

Good job though and keep it up.

[atla18]

try the bridge? I'll give it a shot next time.

The tuners slipped very easilly at the time of this video for some reason, and I've changed my tone considerably since, so it does sound bette.r

Thanks for the feedback.

[jpokinawa]

you suck.

[Mentopoliris]

I would use another pickup, the one which is the highest pitched <-- I don't know how to say it xDD

[atla18]

i uised the bridhe pickup

the tone from the amp in this vid isnt very good

[Deathstrikie229]

wow........ that's all you can do? So much music. And as for your criticism towards killswitch, wtf would you know, you can't play songs as hard as those; and those songs are preety easy.

[atla18]

i havent criticized killswitch, its just not something I like. this is an old vidceo and i just cant' get any good shots of newer shit, so dont disrespect cause i havent said SHIT about you.

and i dont mess this up, so dont say shit.

if your referring to the comment i got -6 or less on, i was defending killswithc if youd read my fuckin context.

[myg0tpurepunk]

luv the hair cuz ^^

[atla18]

thx :D

[Stewpot90]

good video man, i've tried that song a few times, the intro does me over a lil bit tryin 2 get it perfect. but its gd playin

[atla18]

thanks lemme know if you get a vid up ill check it out

[insaneguitarist07]

brad, tht was good, ur strummin technique was a little wild, but wateva feel good 4 u i guess, i dnt really kno the song, but it sounds good

mike g. period 5 history class

pce brad

[atla18]

sup mike havent heard from you in awhile. i knew you played from yer myspace pics but never really looked at anything.

since i started very recently into shit that needs more control its not as wild, but usually in a song like this i go a bit nuts. i wanna put... y'know.. BETTER songs on once i can find one i feel like puttin gup that i can play well enough

[insaneguitarist07]

yea i have been playin for a while now, i am in Erection Infection now, but nick parker left so we r gunna change our name but we dont kno yet, yo should put up a vid of u playin raining bllod, ik u nd ur band covered tht song at least once, i learned tht song nd in tryin to get a vid up but my friend hasnt sent me the vids, but keep up the good work w/ the vids, they where r good, i really liked the acoustic one, pce brad

[jStrat7]

It got a little murky during the bridge and in the intro, but oterh than that it sounded nice. I'd never really heard you play before your youtube vids. Nice stuff.

(Not the best critic though. I've known you too long and I suck too much at guitar myself.)

[atla18]

oh ya youve never heard me play have you O-o

[Johnson15493]

wait til your half decent to put videos up I hate fat emo kids these days

[exmortis19]

Woot!! My favorite Emo!

[xxxkrazykathyxxx]

im so noisey but wer u get ur mcr poster its really kul!

lol

[atla18]

which poster? both of those were gifts from my uncle so idk sorry

[obviouslypepsi]

Hey dude, you're sounding pretty good here! How long you been playing?

Anyway, I realise I'm not the best person to be giving guitar tips out, but here goes:

When playing that single string intro, find a hand position where you can hold the pick firmly, and you can rock your wrist back and forth at a consistent rhythm. Try playing it along to a slow metronome first!

Also, your rhythm style is a bit... wild! Keep your picking hand under control until you nail the rhythm! Then go nuts!

Peace!

[atla18]

thanks for the advice. the intro screws me over a bit, I used to have it but I hadnt played the song for ages when I made this.

As for how long I been playing, this video can't be over a month old so just over a year I'll go with. at the most a year and like 2 months.

And my rhythm style is a bit wild but I like it that way :D

[atla18]

and BTW, you videos are nice to. I didn't recognize your username but thanks for checkin out the channel.

[SandWorrior]

awesome!

i gots some mcr covers too if you wanna check em out =]

[easytoremember246]

Even if I don't like a certain genre of music, I can spot good songs of that particular genre and goo musicians of said genre, I think, but nobody should be saying this suck, nor should they be saying it's great, the sound quality, not your guitar skills, are too poor to tell. Besides, it shouldn't really matter what anyone says anyway.

[atla18]

my camera isnt the best. my amp sonds pretty good but my camera cant capture that all that well, especially consideirng i haev the mnusic playing in the background. any new covers i do im listenin to and playing along to the song on my iPod most likely.

[Arusssixninesix]

dont consider a career in music. just throwing it out there. especially not on guitar. and dont listen to emo music its gay.

[Dragonaut2112]

Oh! But GNR and Dragonforce are much better, eh? You're tone is just like nails scraping off a chalkboard and you aren't very good yourself. Take your own advice, bro.

[Arusssixninesix]

yeah you know maybe if you knew a little more about my videos then id listen to you those videos literally were taken the week i started playing i just didnt like putting videos up here. and coming through the type of camera i have the sound quality sucks. that is also on a fender starcaster now i play a Gibson Les Paul so fuck off fag. i know what im doing and i know how to tell who sucks at guitar. this would be one of them. emo kids. they make me chuckle

[Dragonaut2112]

Don't make an excuse. You are no better than an emo kid. Guns N Roses is just as bad as any emo band out there. They are a bunch of hacks who sounds like an Aerosmith cover band. You are a bit too full of yourself. You really aren't that good at all. Get off your high horse.

[atla18]

so you put up a video like those shitty ones (that blues riff? need i say more?) and come in here to talk about me, and then expect NOT to get shit on? your an idiot, and an elitist. if you are palying a gibson les paul, then im never buying a gibson. there qualities been slippin anyway (little odd to say since i play a subcompany of them -.-)

[Arusssixninesix]

Dragonaut id also like to know where you get that i like dragonforce from. they suck ass their guitarist do nothing but jack off on the guitars

[Dragonaut2112]

You took the video out of your favorites, big boy!

[atla18]

lol he did. cuase it was his first video in their all of ten minutes ago

[Arusssixninesix]

yeah it totally was. youve got problems if you honestly thought it was. it never was in there. and again emo music is so go.

[atla18]

we know it was there. if thats gonna be denied than your a lying pussy, to. just take it like a man and stop bein a little bitch about it. it was there. if id taked a screenshot itd be online right now and youd be shut up woudlnt it

[Arusssixninesix]

sorry no

[atla18]

sorry, yes. now your just a lyin pussy. gtfo

[Arusssixninesix]

sorry im not a liar so go try and act like your good at guitar somewhere else. you suck at guiitar

[atla18]

like i just said on my other video. every time you come back here to try and redeem your pathetic manhood on youtube you just raise my views. get the fuck out, stop trashtalking someone elses guitar playing when your own videos suck, and groqw enough balls to realzie trash talkin on youtube means shit.

or listen to dragonforce again. either way you still phail

[Arusssixninesix]

those videos were made 2 years ago when i first started. so dont talk unless you have a clue about who and what youre talking about

[atla18]

again, idc. you cant come in here and say how bad mine is if yours suck yourself. and your the one who defended your pathetic excuse for life by coming on here to make fun of me, and the secodn someone comes back to you you deny it evre existed. gtfo

[Dragonaut2112]

I just saw your recent ones. Did you pick up your guitar once every two months for two years?

[dragonmustard2]

hey brad

[ddrqueen890]

o_o omg ppl are so bastardy. yu dnt suck. their just wannabes! ;]

[atla18]

[StzaCrizzack]

[BurtSampson]

Well, hot damn, aren't you the little brooding rockstar.
