Brndn - Sol Niger Within Medley (Fredrik Thordendal cover)

Awe yeeee rhythms. There is some ridiculous counting required for this song, for instance the really monotonous chugging riff at like 1:14 in, it's 24 repeats of the 3 chord riff, or 12 counts of a pair.

Video quality is still as shit as ever thanks to the iSight, but this is the first time I've tried to add a decent quality audio source. It never sounds as good on YouTube as it does when you record it.

Maybe some jazz next time? Who knows.

Dude, is there any way I can get the drums only track you're using for this from ya?

[Septicaemia]

@tashirey87 I'd love to, but I'm not using a drums only track. I'm playing against the audio of the video that's on YouTube. I later found out that Fredrik recorded a studio-quality version of the medley with Mats & Morgan on one of their records (I think it was a 2-disc live album). If I had known about that I would have used it instead, I think the guitars are panned all to one side on that recording. Give it a look.

wow impressive!!...whats your tunning??? and how did you figured out the song?? tabs or somethings??

[Septicaemia]

@guarino88 I'm in BEADGBE on a 7 string. Fredrik actually plays a semitone or half-step down (Bb Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb), so I pitched the song up for the video. I transcribed it by ear, because it's usually faster for me than to use tablature. It also helps keep my chops up, heh.

@Septicaemia Haha okay cool man, no worries! That sounds awesome awesome I'll definitely give it a look. Great work by the way man.
