Such a hard hitting song by The Ghost Inside. Learned this song by watching some live videos and listening very closely to the song. Tuning is Drop A#, string gauges used were Ernie Ball 0.11-0.54 strings.

I've done a lot of things differently for this video (and my Walk Away From The World cover). If you've been following my videos for awhile, I hope you can see what I mean. I'll quickly run over what's different from my previous covers.

-I've changed how I hold the pick. It took me a long time to adjust to holding it this way, but I'm finally starting to get the hang of it and it's really working well
-I created a brand new tone, which took a lot of tweaking to get just right. I feel it's much better for heavy bands like The Ghost Inside
-I changed my recording style. I now double track the guitars, which makes it sound much more full, and I don't have to use my headphones anymore while filming. They were a huge pain in the ass haha.
-I used a new format for saving the video, which gives it a much better quality. The file size is 4 times as big as the previous format I was using, so there's a big difference!
-And finally, for now I've ditched the dual-screen covers, instead making use of different angles to show you all the different parts being played.

I hope you guys like how this video came out, please let me know in the comments how I did! If there's anything you'd want to see differently, or if you just want me to keep doing what I'm doing, I appreciate it all the same.

This is gonna be my last cover for awhile. I had around 6 songs I wanted to get to this summer, but as I'm learning, you just can't plan for what life throws your way. If you enjoy my covers, let me know, I really enjoy making them and I'll be more determined to make covers during the school year if people keep asking.

Until next time,

-Tyler

  • wtf is with all the hate? Tyler is a fucking god, who actually puts in the effort to transcribe, record and edit to a sensational quality. Love this man, ignore the cunts - they're just jealous

  • @guileking7 love you bro <3

  • Nice cover man. If i may ask what amp model do you use on your pod?

  • @AttackAndConquer I used two different tones, one based around a 5150 and the other a Dual Rectifier

  • YES! Bro, this is so SICK! I watched the whole freakin thing! The black out makes the breakdown so epic.... Great editing / audio man!
