Sailor1010 listen to Digital Veil. Has a different singer who's much better IMO. Though I do like the distinct sound the singer on Nocturne gives, it's really quite unique and it took a while to grow on me, but now I quite like it
Personally also love Drop F, G and D. Tho, everything from drop C to F is okay to me(Standard tuning just not really mine,and anything lower than F is worthless,except for some occasions)
@@Opticillusion160 I'm not playing metal in it's classical understanding. I love,when it becomes sort of trance(if you want example, check out Nick's video about most used tunings,final riff, perfect example of what I play). And G# is actually pretty nice for fast stuff,like Periphery. Tho,Drop C is lit too,but I just love little bit different type of metal.
I don't entirely hate St. Anger. It had some pretty sweet riffs. I think most people hate it because it's nowhere close to classic Metallica. And Lars's shitty garbage can snare.
@@DrunkenGuitarGuy I always thought The Unnamed Feeling was pretty badass. Funny side note: When I saw Metallica on their first tour supporting St. Anger they had already gotten to the point where they only played one song from St. Anger...and it was Frantic, not even the title track of the album. Lol
Im pretty late to this party but this list outlines my entire childhood learning riffs lol. Also died at 2:05 when Disturbed made an appearance for 1 tenth of a second lmfao. Nailed it Nik.
Dude, Nocturne is an absolute masterpiece of progressive metalcore. AJ is an absolute beast of a guitarist. Still blows my mind that he was only like 18 or 19 when they recorded that album.
@@markcaron4683 I got to hang out with them at Warped Tour 2008 when they came to Minnesota. My friend and I won a VIP contest they had on Myspace. We helped them set up right next to Katy Perry's stage set and it was pretty awesome. I saw them two other times in the Twin Cities in 09 and 11 and then they just disappeared off the planet.
My favorite drop C riff is Machine Head - Davidian. Especially the intro with the harmonics. The whole Burn My Eyes album is also in quarter tuning which makes it even lower. It's between drop C and drop B.
@@inthemiddle1-226 I hate Disturbed as much as any stuck up elitist, but this is definitely their best song and it's insanely good, the solo is jamming, too.
Dude!!! I got goosebumps when you played buttersnips! Such an amazing song, right? Great job and great vid. At least 10 new songs for me to jam to man! -Mikey and Dada
The production was bad, it was missing that signature Metallica tone, Lars is the drummer, they had a studio bassist that was not NEARLY as good as Jason or Cliff, they were going through therapy together, they ran out of Dave Mustaine riffs, and the aggression just wasn't really there. The songs were heavy.. Hell throw one of those riffs through an EVH 5153 and set Bass at 6 mid at 5 and treb at 8, pres at 6 and gain at 5.5 and it sounds heavy as fuck. But you could tell that the aggression from earlier albums wasn't there. If it was released by any other band, my criticisms would have been the same. With the exception of the signature metallica tone and lars drumming part. Metallica carries weight in the industry for a reason. That album was terrible by their standards and should be judged by that standard because they are the ones who created it. No one cares if a local band wrote St. Anger. Hell we wouldn't even be talking about that album if they did.
You’re playing some of my favorite songs on my favorite guitar I’ve played on. That neck feels so good and even though it had active pickups I thoroughly enjoyed the hellraiser.
Great riffs! A lot of my favorite drop C riffs are Rob Arnold's, from (imo under rated) Chimaira back then and now in The Elite which remains under the radar it seems.
I have sound-colour synesthesia and I interpret the key of C as having a deep red colour, so that deep red guitar was suuuuuuper satisfying Edit: WOW some people like to comment without doing any research. I know the official name is chromesthesia, I gave it the simpler name so that more people could understand what I meant. The general estimate for the amount of people who have synesthesia is around 4% - approx. 320 MILLION people - but some studies have estimated that it's more like 1 in 23 people. Not exactly some hyper-rare brain condition that everyone in the comment section "suddenly has". Also, one of the main components of synesthesia is different people interpreting the same thing in different ways, i.e. a musical note being green to one person, and purple to another. It doesn't have to be interpreted the same way by every synesthete to be real - in fact, it's one of the main things we fight over. I really fucking hope that clears some things up before even more of a shitstorm gets created.
That Meddler riff took me ages to get down cleanly, but it was so satisfying once I did. That whole song is a finger work out! Also liking the inclusion of some old school Black Dahlia Murder!
Bro didn’t you only have 10k subs like last year? I remember seeing your covers around when Fit For a King was teasing Dark Skies. Either I’m tripping or you’ve grown crazy fast! But you deserve it man I love the spice of personality in your videos
I am glad BFMV was included; most of their songs are in Drop C. It was difficult to choose a favourite from this video but mine were BFMV, Metallica, System of a Down & Blessthefall.
Dark Flame I actually think it can be used for good. Bands like Mastodon use it for prog and it gives it a heavy sound without going down to Baritone tunings
@@simoneartini3302 I agree some bands can pull it off. Like Hammer Smashed Face by Cannibal Corpse is in Eb and it's heavy as shit but most bands that use that tuning don't come close anymore considering that something as ridiculous as drop G is now considered a normal tuning.
Before I watch this I hope there's at least one gojira riff in here. Edit: I'm sad, was hoping I'd see toxic garbage island or the breakdown from L'enfant sauvage :( but good selection of simple and some pretty technical riffs there. I'm glad I saw my fav band soad on this lol. You should do heaviest riffs D standard next
It is a heavy song. Slow n heavy especially for a thrash band. Just bc it's old doesn't mean it is automatically not heavier than my balls crushing a stack of CDs with C.O.B. and As I Lay Whining riffs on them.
pinch harmonic you put ur thumb pretth close to where ur picking and after picking you bump the string as you are going down between the bridge and neck pickups
SICK! It's awesome just living in the comfort zone. So many different songs, the fret hand is in that same comfy position. The box, it's a friendly and safe to play, try breaking out some time. You'll blow your own mind.
I still think that Eb is the darkest sounding tuning. Even if it's physically a higher pitch than drop C, it's timbre still conveys an inherent darkness, and C has an inherent brightness at any octave. That's the way I perceive it. Good playing in this video.

C standard...
Drop C has got to be my favorite shit, so many of these bands I grew up on.
Imma pause the video for a second and take a breath. All these riffs are heavy as balls man!
How do you do this high-pitch thing at 1:26? Wtf is it even called?
Pinch harmonic
pinch harmonic you put ur thumb pretth close to where ur picking and after picking you bump the string as you are going down between the bridge and neck pickups
I can hear jakes lyrics when you played meddler omg ❤️❤️❤️🥴🥴🥴🥴
OH GOD I HAVE TO GO BACK AND LISTEN TO THE HUMAN ABSTRACT AGAIN NOW :O
Aha yes!
SICK! It's awesome just living in the comfort zone. So many different songs, the fret hand is in that same comfy position. The box, it's a friendly and safe to play, try breaking out some time. You'll blow your own mind.
I still think that Eb is the darkest sounding tuning. Even if it's physically a higher pitch than drop C, it's timbre still conveys an inherent darkness, and C has an inherent brightness at any octave. That's the way I perceive it. Good playing in this video.
I’m pissed, no gojira
Sorry, they were on the bigger list =/
Right, they literally have a song called "Heaviest Matter in the Universe" and it's not even their heaviest song
