Is Death's Chuck Schuldiner The Best Death METAL Guitarist? I believe Chuck was a very unique talent. He pioneered a new genre of music, wrote deep lyrics about religion and philosophical topics, as well as vicious guitar technique. I think he was the total package. Sadly Chuck died of brain cancer at age 34 in 2001. In oder to showcase his amazing songwriting ability, we'll be watching a live performance of Crystal Mountain, recorded in Germany in 1998. The track is fire. Get on Chuck's level by taking my music theory course below muhahaha!

My favorite piece on “Symbolic” is “Crystal Mountain”, yet, what are crystal mountains? Chuck - “They are synonimous for my over critical neighbours, which this song is all about. They believe they live a perfect life in a crystal mountain. Unfortunately, I live next door to this religious fanatics, who live unwordly and certainly not in the just described mountains. I’m sorry but those people are not that different from me. They have to pay taxes also and they should not be disturbed by looks like long hair. Although it’s not religious at all my neighbours are filled with hate and judge me. In this song there’s a cross changing into a sword, symbolic for the abuse of their religion. I have nothing against religion in general, but religion should not be directed against others. In “Crystal Mountain” I expressed my hate and anger towards these people. It’s easy to see that “Symbolic” contains very personal songs, i.e. “Empty Words”, every day you say things to people that later appear to be empty. It’s easy to promise mountains of gold, yet it’s hard to keep this promise. Spoken words should have a meaning and not just be hollow phrases just being said to be said. You should think about what you want to say and you have to be sure to say what you mean. I hope people can relate to this theme because it definitely is a very personal song." (Heavy oder was! 1995)

This was early 90s. Also, spoke with Bobby Koelble who played on Symbolic. Chuck never learned any theory. He was entirely self taught by ear. He never communicated in any sort of technical musical jargon.

i totally feel you man. The first time i heard Death, it was The Sound of Perseverance, it completely blew my mind. I think that the reason why Death's music stands out after so much time and most of the other death metal bands don't is taht Chuck was the first and most severe citic of his own music. He wouldn't have allowed to bad music to be released. You can definitely heasr Chuck's passion for music behind every written line, and people feel that too

There are people with more technical chops and deeper understanding of theory, people who have made unique and great music, but whenever I go back to Death, I notice new things, new nuance, from the songs I've heard hundreds of times. And the way he repeatedly found people who could do things he couldn't and had them add their touches to his compositions, giving the different albums completely different vibes while maintaining that Death undertone is great.

So I picked up the cassette tape, yes I was in high school in the 80s, and saw the picture of the robed skeleton sitting on the throne raising a challis. I knew instantly that was the album for me, I was hooked just by the cover artwork. Scream Bloody Gore is still my favorite DEATH release of all time. Can't top Regurgitated guts or Mutilation.

I still remember all riffs from this album. And two years later one friend opened to me a Cynic band with their In Focus album, where i found something completely new and interesting in track named Textures. Listening it again and again I found it to be a secret door to the world of fusion metal music.

Just one example, Take a listen to Sabbath bloody Sabbath again, consider that composition, tuning & crunch was created in 1973, when no one else was doing it. There was no blue print. Chuck on the other hand had all sorts of blue prints, he built a unique style like Tony Iommi, but he did have Tony Iommi's music to base his ideas off of. Because of that, Tony Iommi still in at #1

wow sick you did this video. Chuck is insanely under rated not just in the metal community but in the music world. His artistic creations are absolutely genius

I'm almost positive there are a few interviews where Chuck says he tries his best to stay away from religious topics and all that. That was the reason i think the band name logo changed from the upside down cross to the sickle. After watching this video though what you said kinda makes sense. Chuck was and still is the man, I listen to Symbolic, The Sound of Perseverance, Individual Thought Patterns, daily. He was and still is a huge inspiration on my guitar playing. The man is definitely missed by fans, friends and family to this day and beyond.

I really like how you evaluated his guitar playing here. Skill is more than just speed. It is a wide variety of factors that add up to someone's depth of guitar mastery. With metal it can be very easy to get locked into focusing on one or two things. He was a pioneer I'd be very interested in seeing you take on some doom: particularly something off Cathedral's Forest Equilibrium album or Solitude Aeturnus' Beyond the Crimson Horizon (for me those two albums are as good as it gets for that genre).

I just learned how to play this song, took me 3 good weeks to nail it. Mind u i work fulltime and powerlift so i dont habe 8 hrs a day to practice but i did it finally. Fucking love this song. GIMME CHUCK OR GIVE ME DEATH... Also, for a different band to check out for pappa shred is edge of sanity swedish band founded by Dan swano, hes another one of those amazing melodic death composer and song writer on similar level as our God Mr, schuldiner.

Would love to see you do more videos about Death. They've got so many amazingly well composed and played albums and songs. And yes, Chuck is the best death metal guitarist of all time
