Many of you asked for a full cover of this song, especially for the intro and chorus riffs, so I really hope I was able to live up to your expectations!
In order to have the guitars a little more up front without having the vocals and rhythm section too low in the mix, I removed all of Dave and Adrian's original parts with the Moises App.
Therefore, all the guitars you're hearing on this video were played by me.
Guitars:
Adrian: Jackson USA Signature Adrian Smith San Dimas
Dave: Fender Dave Murray Signature Stratocaster
Audio Plugin: BIAS FX II
DAW: Reaper Audio
Audio Interface: Focusrite Scarlett 2i2
Strings: Ernie Ball Regular Slinky 9-46 (Adrian) & 9-42 (Dave)
Pick: Jazz III XL

DAMN NICO!! You should do all your covers like this. Your tone and precision of Adrian and Daves styles is so on point you don't need to have their sound in the mix. Maybe just barely in the background. But man you're next level at these covers. UP THE NICOS!!!

Now that's pure passion. Putting so much time and effort in covering these songs, recording them, editing, bringing to the public, and knowing all will be "Copyright flagged" and not eligible for monetisation. And still doing it. Up the Irons 🤘🏼

So, that's why all the more respect and praise you deserve. Now, keep them knuckles happy, bring joy to the real (metal) world, and give the Prodigal Son (if I've not missed it) it's first live performance ever ❤️

This song reminds me of growing up. Dad has a VHS tape that a friend of his recorded from MTV Headbangers ball, it has Maiden, Kiss, Ozzy, Conception, etc! I’ve watched it hundreds of time, The Evil That Men Do was right after Roll The Fire by Conception! I rewatched it and rewatched it!!!

My favourite Maiden song by far. Remember hearing that intro riff for the first time and instantly falling in love with the song. Perfect cover on your part. Really hoping to see this song live one day. Last time they had it on their setlist was on the first part of the LOTB tour i think. I sadly doubt they'll play it during the Future Past tour, but you never know...

Masterful 😍, it looks like you like it and you enjoy it to the fullest, we already know that to play Maiden's songs they are not relatively difficult but that is the greatest thing to make songs that are easy to play but they blow your mind because of how well composed they are and with what elegance and personality come to you and impact you like an asteroid, that's what happened to me when I was 14 years old when I heard "Live After Death", which I play from beginning to end and when you see the video and the magic that surrounds it with Egyptian details everywhere and the costumes especially of Bruce and Adrian with their LADO guitar was absolutely overwhelming. To this day it is the Maiden live that I like the most along with the Seven Son Tour which was the biggest stage.
