My songwriting course is finally HERE: bit.ly/SONGWRITINGCOURSE

That Rooster was the most Slipknot thing ever

If corey did the vocals, I would Litteraly think this was made by slipknot.

Petition for Slipknot to cover this song

Are you kidding me??? This is insanely accurate. Love it!!

I'm waiting for Slipknot to make a video called "Lets Write An In Virtue Song"

Emg: trey wanna demo are pickups? Trey: sure I wrote an entire slip knot song. Emg we just asked for a simple demo.

I'd lose my mind if you made a "Let's Write an Opeth song"

Dude that’s dope!!! Your chorus is a little more Motionless In White to me but the tone is a great match for Slipknot. And that rooster!!! Brilliant

So when are slipknot covering this live with Trey as a guest?

WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THE "SLIP BUT NOT" SIGN? Nice video Trey!

I can imagine Corey Taylor singing that song....100% sounds like Slipknot!

The chorus vocals make it sound a bit like a seether or skillet type song, it's insane how much one instrument can change the feel of a part of a song

Sounded like a Slipknot song until the vocals were added. Now it sounds like if Trapt made a metalcore band. haha

The song is basically if Slipknot and Skillet had a baby lmao

Dude is ridiculously talented All his songs are on point

Slip but not

Coming from the mindset of someone who listens to Slipknot as a favorite band, this song can definitely be shaped into a Slipknot song with the right people, obviously. You made something that I don't think a lot could, even without the godly voice of Corey Taylor, and to imagine how Corey could make those words really sound out to the world is amazing to think about. The guitar parts themselves could also be improved upon, depending on the sort of album style that you could have gone with, or if it was an amalgamation of them altogether. Overall, there's real potential for this song. You should definitely see if Corey would be down to do an actual vocal cover of this thing. That would be wicked.

You get massive bonus points if you send this to Corey's people and have him send it back with him on vocals

Yeah Mick is definitely the death metal guy in the band. I watched an interview where he was saying that he tells his students to check out this death metal band, not sure if he's still a guitar teacher since I am not from the states let alone Iowa

Spot on. Obviously the vocals are impossible to get identical to Corey, but they still sounded good. The screams were actually pretty similar. Everything was pretty much identical tho

Those pickups are definitely kick ass. Swapping my 81 set for these

3:44 *Here comes the Pain!*

Let's Write a Meshuggah Song Let's Write a Opeth Song Let's Write a Tool Song Let's Write a Gojira Song Let's Write a Mastodon Song You've got some work to do now.

Love the sign in the back “slip but not”... clever! Nice work, sounds great!

Okay, this song kicks fucking ass, not to mention those pickups sound fantastic as well. Killer as usual, Trey, can’t wait to see what you do next for these “Let’s Write A Song” videos

Great song dude, it really catches the Slipknot vibe, you have nailed it with the samples, you should try doing more videos like this!

Dude! This is the third of yours I've seen, and yes I have now watched 3 in a row. I have already clicked subscribe. The way you articulate your points rings home with me. I understand everything you're saying in a way that feels new and inspiring. Very insightful observations and your execution was *Chef's kiss*! I will be watching a ton more of your channel. :D Cheers!

Killer work!!! well done !!!!

Pretty F-ing cool dude. Love the process of breaking things down. Thanks for the video

Dude this is freaking sicccccccccc. Great video and song!

Wow this is actually really good! :D

This is fantastic!

Damn! Thats bang on haha Love it dude!

Without vocals I think we could add it to slipknot albums torrents and many people would believe it as an unreleased demo. Nice work.

I grew up listening to lots of Korn and Slipknot and your vocals have a very Jonathan Davis sound and paired with this amazing Slipknot track, it is one of the most badass songs i have heard in years!! Thanks you for doing what you do Trey. Keep it up!!

That was really cool, good job!

Trey, HOLY FUCKING SHIT, that was awesome!!! The sound was great, riff ideas were very catchy, and the final product was everything I expected. Enjoyed the "music video" to go with it as well, great quality and effects. Thanks for another awesome video

WOW , amazing job !! a lot of work . great !!!! love it

You make it look so easy, cool Vid dude.

love it keep up the good work

This is great! 👍

good lord this came out fantastic. That chorus is hella hooky too!

This so so cool man!

This is fricking awesome man!

Amazing!!! Cant wait for your songwriting course

Amazing job. Brutal and entertaining as well. So Slipknot! Really great. I really like your composition video! Am going to download the song and listen to it in a loop. And +10kudos for the real keg!

Holy shit! This is fucking awesome. You gained a sub.

That was a great song, and nailed the sound 🤘 keep rocking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you sincerely Trey, I was getting depressed today and I didn’t even want to play guitar or sing but this video inspired me to keep writing songs. I love your thought process in making songs.

Nicely done man. Really liked the chorus

Epic man! You made not only the song, but the videoclip too :D

Dude the background vocals in the chorus are beautiful 😍

This was a pretty dope video!

Damn you nailed it totally dig the track !

Damn man this was awesome 👌

dude that was phenomenal!

Dude!! You're an absolute beast!! This is a real banger

the final product gave me goosebumps, you're a monster, subbed

I love watching your " Let's Write a Song " videos. This is insanely good! I laughed way too hard when you were hitting that beer keg with the bat during the recording process. Where can I go to get a Gear Gods t shirt?

Thoroughly enjoyed this!

This sounds great dude

Kudos for actually getting the damn easy connect stuff to fit in the guitar cavity!

I Know I’m Late To Comment But Trey Your Insane Good Bro! This Song Tripped Me Out!

what i would give for a slipknot cover of this, this is cool as hell my dude, well done.

Amazing job man!

Dude you killed this!

Wow very talented! Great job!!!!!!!!

Holy shit bro, this screamed slipknot! Even more than that... that song fucking rocks! The lyrics are fucking deep shit. I want this song. I want more. Def checking out your band after hearing the creative talent you have (even if it’s to make a slipknot song, I wanna see what one of your songs sounds like if you can make an imitation so fantastic)!!!

Thank u for this

For anyone interested in what the lyrics are: GHOST EARTH Ready or not, it's the gravity reversal I'm an absolutist and the truth is all-immersive Sick of me, but you're an anomaly If time is the enemy It's time for you to turn and face the adversary A bloodless sacrifice A spreading disease Better stay inside But if you're still alive, then you envy the dead Cuz I'd rather do the haunting than to be the haunted SO This is the end of the line We were just along for the ride Now we're forced to wander the earth as GHOSTS Turns out that the devil was right We've been dancing in the pale moonlight So now we wander the earth as ghosts THIS IS FOR YOU You think that life is a rehearsal Why are you complacent with the world at your disposal? Come for me Advocate of suffering Make nothing of everything It's time for you to isolate the ancillary Anthropocentric life Is the spreading disease It's the end of the line But if you're still alive, then you envy the dead Cuz I'd rather do the haunting than to be the haunted SO This is the end of the line We were just along for the ride Now we're forced to wander the earth as GHOSTS Turns out that the devil was right We've been dancing in the pale moonlight So now we wander the earth as ghosts We thought we had it all, but it had us instead We thought we had it all, but it had us instead And now there's only GHOSTS WALKING THE EARTH We've always been GHOSTS WALKING THE EARTH We're nothing more than GHOSTS SO This is the end of the line We were just along for the ride Now we're forced to wander the earth as GHOSTS Turns out that the devil was right We've been dancing in the pale moonlight So now we wander the earth

Holy smoke man! That was awsome!

BRO THIS WAS FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!

That was sick dude! I was half expecting Corey to do guest vocals for this beast.

Now that you got my attention 😁👍✌🤘🎵🎶🎸🎼😎 nice work you maniac, Sick!!!! And funny.
