@@oinkooink I think Hetfield is a country fan, I remember reading that somewhere. Doesn't surprise me really, he was always the beer and pickup-trucks type of guy in the band. With that said, having grown up in a country music family, I can safely say I detest the genre. Though thankfully my dad at least played bluegrass rather than shit country and western (Bluegrass has *way* better musicainship, although the pedal steel guys in country and western do tend to be pretty skilled)

I think Chris is a metalhead even if he doesn't know it, the fact that he got so into it he broke his low E string and was practically beating the guitar while playing tells me he had a lot more fun than he let on. Also there's the obvious fact that it sounded amazing and would be right at home on an early bluesy metal album.

Tank, Girlschool, Tigers of Pan Tang, Saxon, Angel Witch. Man, that's beautiful

The big "tell" that you guys aren't metal players is mostly the picking on the rhythm guitars. A lot of straight power chords directly on the beat stuff, sounded very Sabbath-y which is great but it's sort of foundational to the point where even by the 80s most riffs would have had more muted tremolo picking and gallops breaking em up. Samurai Guitarists was actually pretty convincing. Paul's sounded kinda super modern with chords that would be at home in a prog song or something.

Great stuff mate, I really love these cross-genre videos. Chris is the clear winner for me, but all were great. What I like is that everybody didn't immediately go for the most gain, the lowest dropped tuning, the most chunk... I mean, there is more to Metal than djent and death metal. It's not about the amount of noise. Nobody ever goes for the light but lightning fast riffs of Power Metal or the airy but rocking licks of Glam of the neck wrecking palm muted bonanza of Thrash. So yeah, wonderful to hear the guys here not falling into the djent trap :D.

@domanz1 2 жыл бұрын
I was about to write exactly that. Sammys sound was fitting for the riff in my opinion. Davids tone could have done with more gain. I think metal musicians have less issues with sacrificing clarity for more punch, but then again, you need less gain for openly played chords. If you want to chug, a guitar tone with too little gain will sound like coming from a toy guitar. And Justin was just killer. Really loved all of it.

Also, the solo Chris did (he is my favorite soloist of the newest guys. globally. 'nuff said) was w-o-w and interesting for a metal one, in the thin line of 'hell yes' and 'yes but not metal' haha. Rest of the others GREAT job, but, to a true metal fan, sound more like reminiscing of metal, than, real metal that you could listen, more like a fun game/experiment
