@@slaythembeforeme yes. I would love to hear black metal covers of the beach boys and the ventures

Finnish band Viikate mix melodic heavy metal with so-called Rautalanka which is a Finnish version of 60s surf rock. Try them out, for example the song 'Kurjat Kurjet'.

Imagine vikings surfing the Scandinavian cold waters

I find that idea feels slightly contradictory, in a way, to his point that black metal songs are literally surfer music without distortion. But on the other hand, he basically made surfer rock covers of black metal songs, so like you said the video still is awesome in its own way

Ah yes, the non racist timeline

@rabbitmane9265 no one gives a single fuck about being racist. It's not real anymore. RAAAYCISSSS

I remember reading about how surf rock was super popular when Mick Mars from Motley Crüe first learned to play guitar, and then as soon as he started getting good it became very unpopular and he had to learn new styles of play. It might have influenced his future heavy metal guitar playing style a lot 🤔

Golden Tiki in Vegas regularly has surf rockers play. It's amazing how gifted they are without suffering from carpal tunnel or messing up.

Kurt Cobain was certainly aware of it.

It's bridge between Rock 'n' Roll, Rockabilly - Pop Rock

Are there videos on KZfaq?

Id like to hear the surf rock version of Burzum haha Cant even imagine

@t16205 There's a band called "The Burzums" and they do that exclusively. Burzum transfers over very well. I imagine the Bestial Black and War Metal bands wouldn't work that great.

I forget what it was called, but somebody DID make an entire album of this exact thing.

That's quite on the level - so, picture the following : Dunkelheit adapted to a BB's ballad with crazy harmony loops in between the two distinctive parts of the track. Sung by Bruce Johnston backed by Mike Love and Al Jardine, conducted by Brian and Varg. I can almost hear it from here...

Not black metal but Melvins does a fantastic cover of I Get Around called I Fuck Around haha

Yeah, what is it about black metal fans being so large?

This also seems like something Tarantino would do in general. He’s synonymous for turning iconic songs on their head while having a COMPLETELY different meaning and sound to them

@@bronzin1445 What if it's not a movie but bi-monthly curated box of snacks

@@bronzin1445 Pulp fiction begins with Misirlou and ends with Surfrider. Dick Dale and (a cover of) the Ventures. Those two acts, that’s basically the bookends of surf instro. Oh and it’s perfect because it sets the tone and then reaffirms the tone of the movie. This movie is like a surf music record.

Why you say it like that 😂

for Robert Rodriguez movies with vampires and Danny Trejo

I find the beauty comes from the sublime clash between the moving melodies and the harshness and aggressiveness of presentation. The anguish/hatred pushes the beauty of BM's melodic sensibilities even further through the juxtaposition. While fun and interesting, I don't get any of the original's beauty from these experiments. Dedicated pop and rock does clean melody better; imo knowing the original music makes this clean version sound toothless and pointless! To each their own though. You'd probably enjoy The Botanist if you don't know 'em.

facts, very passionate, atmospheric and dramatic

and that's why Blackened Shoegaze/blackgaze exist

I like the distortion and growls but also the clean and the harmonies. And extra credit for all of it together.

Growls and Black Metal vocals can be extremely beautiful imo.

Exactly. The drum rhythm isnt The same

We need surf rock with metal drums!!!!

They always do

@@grantog123 Not exactly the same, but Blind Guardian recorded a cover of Surfin USA where the song gets more metal as it goes on, especially with the drums.

I'm envious dude, I always wanted to see him when he was alive. Unfortunately for me whenever he did come to my part of the world (UK) the tickets were way more than I could afford. Though I can completely understand the price being so much, he was touring independently by this time (ie no backing or support from a label) and the expense of all the travel/accommodation and other tour expenses and despite his being an absolute legend, he was pretty much forgotten as far as the music industry was concerned. I wish I could have gone at least one time tho..

I got to see him at a Vans Warped Tour with Sublime when Brad was stil alive.

"I saw him at "the boardwalk" in Sacramento area in 2001!

@@douglasmatheson403 lived in Cali all my life, wish I saw that

Absolutely! One of the best shows I've seen. I saw him 2 or 3 times in small venues. It was real cool. For those that never saw him, it was easy to get a front row "seat" in standing room shows. He played so insanely loud that most people would back away from the stage. Of course you would be deaf for a day or two afterwards!! I can still here his blistering, drenched guitar tone in my head.

Seriously though!

Woah

no that's too powerful

Isn't one of the key aspects of power metal the use of major modes, though?

NOOOOOOOO

Ya habibi! Why do I only about it now? Thanks...

Part of Hajj consists of throwing rocks at a wall that represents the Devil. That seems pretty metal to me! There are also some Arabic metal bands I believe

@@sylph8005 Which is pretty ironic because Black Metal is often synonymous with the devil...

@@madkhaliqfarhan Sure, but the way I see it, metal can be just as much about fighting the Devil as it can be worshipping him, as long as you make it as brutal as possible. Like Doom, you know? He fights demons, but it's in the goriest way possible in the most grotesque environments, and his slaying goes without a lick of holiness, as he doesn't use any sacred arts to fight the infernal and he kills angels too. I feel like that aesthetic and modus operandi can be applied to metal music and presentation too. I know they fight dragons and stuff in power metal at least. Not to mention there's the classic metal band Motley Crue, who have "Shout At the Devil"

@@sylph8005 not exactly metal but i have seen some arabian hardcore punk bands around. most of them are pretty political though.

That’s called The Munsters

You should listen to The Cramps

Reminds me of Ghost - Zombie Queen

Scooby doo music

The minors and diminished runs lend an air of uncertainty and peril that comes with surfing that makes it seem so appropriate.

it reminds me of some goth music. listen to midnight creature by lebanon hanover it has those surf rock drums

Sounds like queens of stone age

It ties well with the horror movies from the 50s aesthetic

Sounds a lot like coffin wheels

There's a documentary called Metal Evolution. In one of the episode's the host talks a little about surf rock and its roots in the metal music. He also mentions how people living in the 60's meant that surf music had a little aggresive and somewhat sinister sound. Im not sure if Mayhem adapted tremolo picking because it was easy to play, or because of the aggresive sound. The only thing i know is that Mayhem were more artists and pioneers of a new movement, than they were great musicians. Correct me if im wrong.

Munster’s theme

Tony Iommi said it through : Without Hank Marvin of the Shadows his style wouldn't have been the same !! F.B.I. was the song clip that changed Sabbath history

Screaming Jay Hawkins?

Link Wray started the distortion sound but taking a pencil and poking holes though his amp. He was the link (pun intended) from surf to punk. Alsoz the only instrumental band from radio is 'Rumble'

@@el_spicerbeasto ?? The Shadows were on radio with the hit FBI ... in surf adjacent rock & roll ala Ventures

Blues guys like Wolf and Muddy were cranking tubes to distortion as part of the Chicago sound from the late 50s too. It was just that they didnt use a chugging rhythm guitar behind it to get it over as an itegral part of the sound.

Congratulations! You (re-)invented horror-surf.

That's a fantastic name for a band.

Weren’t you guys on a compilation with daikiju?

He was certainly an influence just can’t give him majority credit with so many others.

​@@maskcollector6949🤓

have to wonder who influenced him though

@@Chicanery_Artifice That would be Eastern European and West Asian folk traditions, Dale being the son of a Lebanese father and Polish-Belarusian mother. Misirlou, his most famous track, is a prime example, being a cover of a Greek/Ottoman folk song.

@@Existential_Tempest I remember that a version of Miserlou was performed at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympics. The performance was definitely influenced by Dale's version, so it was almost as if the song came full circle.

The Dead Milkmen had many songs with a solid beach vibe like "Beach Party Vietnam" and "Blood Orgy of the Atomic Fern", etc. Most of the "Eat Your Paisley" album was basically punk surf.

This has nothing to do with your comment jjjjjjaa.

i have yet to meet a guitarist who isn't an absolute Beach Boys fanboy or fangirl. most listeners will say the Beatles were the most significant rock band in history, but actual rock/metal/punk musicians will usually point to the Beach Boys as the most significant. of course then you get iggy pop, who claims it was the Shaggs, and... well.. yanno...

You also catch it halfway through Viking Guitar's _Trail Dust and Turtle Wax._

Didn't Jello Biafra cite Dick Dale as a major inpiration for the DKs?

I experienced a similar situation as I found out that Joey's drumming is Jazz based

@@jonlork1937 its almost like musicians will take techniques from any genre aslong as they work eh

there are a few puzzle pieces in play here, the one the video is mainly pointing out that the guitar riffs are very similar between surf rock and black metal. - the big thing a lot of non musicians seem to be missing here though is also the drums were changed as well. and its because of the change of the drums that your actually feeling the change in Genre.

@@rickydo6572 it's not everyone's cup of tea, but aside from the music you gotta pay attention to the lyrics. DK's songs are probably the smartest songs I've heard, you can tell that they were more than a punk band, they were very smart and aware on the events, politics and social environment of that era both in the US and in the rest of the world

@@alanmogliani6944 Yea, their lyrics were some of the best punk lyrics at the time and still today. Well, nowdays they're just a Shadow of their former selves without Jello Biafra.

@@rickydo6572 definitely. I wish they would have just split up and buried the DK name altogether. Keeping the name without the original formation made them fall in the rock and roll cliche of fighting over a name, over a song, over anything like a couple that just got divorced

I think maybe it's that well written music sounds good no matter what effects you run them through. Just a hypothesis. Kinda want to make a ridiculous pedal chain now. For science.

I mean, being able to sound good either way and provide 2 different vibes by changing distortion and drumming is also a sign of brilliance haha. But I agree, Transylvanian Hunger is the only one that didn't lose any bleakness at all - a testament to how bleak it is even amongst some of the bleakest music out there

Freezing Moon stood unbreakable as well. Seagull noises had to be added for beach ambience, otherwise it would remain as dark as it gets.

You mean metal is surf rock. Surf rock came first.

@@Discrimination_is_not_a_right No. I do not mean that at all. I mean that Surf Rock is form of Metal. Metal was named by Sandy Perlman in 1966. It has existed since the creation of the world.

@@Discrimination_is_not_a_right Discrimination is a moral duty.

@@dashtheautoman Metal came out of London. Zeppelin created it. They're widely acknowledged as the first metal band. And surf rock started in the early sixties. BTW, if you think discrimination is a moral duty, you must be a republican.

Don't be a pussy. Listen to pure fucking satanic black metal.

The drums also have a little to do with it, in fact probably more so than the lack of distortion. i don't knwo these songs, but I assume they have super fast drums with blast beats.

@@JayTor2112 drums add so much depth, texture, and structure to the sound of the song. Really drives the music

Historically, Dick Dale, the famous surf guitarist, is probably the main inspiration for metal due to his right (or in his case left) hand technique and composition.

Yeah, now you can actually hear the melody!

@@joelwhite2361 Main inspiration for metal, for which subgenres exactly?

It's neat how that influence informed the music with the minor and diminished runs that lend the feelings of uncertainty and peril which is so appropriate for surfing, and that is now the sound because if how well it fit along with the timing of the musicians. Like if Dick Dale never made his way to the West Coast would 'surf music' sound different?

@@foodank_atr817 Very good question.

I'd like to hear a full song like that! I've never heard gloomy surf rock and honestly I need more of it.

I read your comment just as I was listening to that part and thinking the same thing. "Nah, that still sounds really evil" lol

Yeah, but that one kind of reminded me of a 60s horror film or maybe a perilous scene in in an action movie of the era. I feel like there’s some interesting similarities to 60s music as a whole here. Really cool!
