Vogg is one of the best rhythm guitarists in modern metal. Even though he's definitely moved away from the more technical level in the pre-Blood Mantra Decapitated discography you can pick up some of his really intricate nuances in this playthrough. Hope he does more!
The tone on Anticult is the most perfect, flawless death metal tone I've ever heard. Like a knife the size of the moon crashing into the Earth at 1,000mph. To be fair, that's what a 5150III, sick bass, and proper mixing will do for you.
Nick Wick ohh yeah then steve vai is better than malmsteen 10 folds you dumbass. Its not about the speed, its about the metal spirit. Vogg is given dimes name because dimebag was a metal god. It’s an honor. And dont you ever say malmsteen is better than dime you noob.
To Everyone who still wants him to play that Diminished Scale Abuse style that he did on his earlier albums. Didn't like 300 other tech bands out there emulate Winds of Creation and Nihility? Accept the fact that VOGG is a Pioneer and a Pathfinder. He's continuing his musical journey where ever it may take him. And doesn't have to be the AC/DC of death if he doesn't want to!
I agree he follows his own music journey but Pioneer? Nooo :), many bands was playing brutal on beginning and now they are much softer. Vogg plays really nice for sure and I really enjoy melodies even if I really like first 4 albums :)
the thing is what they did with first few albums was indeed pioneering work, and the mind gets fucked knowing how old they were and that Vader helped them record some stuff for the first album. HOWEVER, on these newer albums they no longer sound like one of a kind band with own style, you listen to any song and it could be from any of the new albums or any band for that matter, it's no longer unique - that's how I hear it in my ears.
@@mateuszlaskowski3123 Exactly right mate decapitated have lost their identity. There are countless other technical death metal bands that sound just like they do now. It's fair enough considering the members they've lost, just a shame
Vogg, thank you for continuing to gift us with these beautifully fat riffs. And that tone is spot on (to me) as always. You keep inspiring me, doin' what you're doin'.
same here!! I love vogg!! and decapitated! !!! the truest band today!! they been through more insane shit! than any band in the world! so many unexplained bus & vehicle accidents! ! r.i.p..veteck! the original drummer! also know as voggs, brother.▪
Seen them live a few times and he's just a fucking machine. That right hand is lazer precise and relentless, without a doubt the best metal rhythm player I've seen.
Never would I ever have thought that, while listening to Nihility in high school, that they would ever put out music such as they have since. And I can appreciate that. I really dig the new stuff. Hails.
@@Lupine. i can understand that someone only love their tech death stuff and not new groove style, but saying this is shit or not good and quality music is nonsense
Here's the thing: You can see that Vogg is influenced by Dimebag! There's nothing wrong with that, because you can also see that he's influenced, not a rip-off! See kids? This is how you take inspiration and make it something original! Edit: I've been saying for YEARS that if Phil and Rex (and Vinnie Paul back then) ever got together to honor Dimebag's life and music, Vogg should be the one to play with them.
When I first heard Organic I fell in love with this band. And I could hear the Pantera influence. And Coven sounded a bit like Max of Sepultura. And overall the sound was technical, precise, the sound quality was as good as it gets and they hit hard as hell. After that, I was all in. Exceptional band.
I've always loved the Dime influence and as you said, never a rip off, just a nod to Dime with some killer fucking riffs that Dime would def approve of
Rip Dime!Im pretty sure that without dime we wouldnt have this guy playing these awesome groovy riffs like that.Dime was the main influence for every guy who plays groove metal.
Hyppyrotta I've seen Decapitated a bunch of times live and it's crushing. He picks the strings with a lot of power, super fast and precise, never makes a mistake. His technique is really good in both end of the spectrum, lead playing and rhythm. To my ears and from what I've seen, he's the best and my favourite, but of course everyone is entitled to their opinion!
I hope this album really shows what vogg is actually capable of doing on guitar. For all you new listeners of this band please listen to their first few albums they will blow your fucking mind. Vogg is an OG guitar god
His is a LACS, but Ibanez released some to the American market for one year. They were an X-series MIC, and the one I owned was definitely not an easy guitar to play.
@@girlsdigmytube183 i meant how they are played on a single string , to be fair ur tuning doesn't really matter if u know how to play heavy and got an amazing tone , heavyness is 70% tone 20% how you play 10% tunning , look at metallica live when they are using those mesa boogie amps using a standard e tunning now i don't like them as a band but that tone is heavy af , but that's just my opinion , plus lamb of god sound pretty heavy for a drop d band , they also use the drop c# but it's all a matter of preference what i am saying is these single string riffs doesn't really sound different in different tunings
@@muhammadosama4383 Osama I know tuning doesn't necessarily mean 'heavier', but seriously that guitar is P-H PHAT. just imagine.. L.o.G playing some of their riffs on that beast... I kinda see what your saying but I think Decap and LoG approach their sound/recording differently, so it's really down to the listener. I just think whatever the tuning that guitar (And guitarist) is beast... single string, tunings etc either way epic sound. No disrespect Osama
But I do think Vogg is higher talent than all of log combined. He probly just needed a break from playing 1mil miles an hour so he chills on some single string log type riffs, sounds mad on that rig
Drop B on a 7? Wait, so how does this work? Isn't B on a 7 just regular 6 string E with a natural B at the bottom? What's the rest tuned to if it's a drop tuning?
It would just be everything else a step up A handful of bands tune to Drop B on a 7 string, I think All Shall Perish is one of the more well known examples.
Hey UA-cam/Decapitated world. What's the name for the guitar playing/technique Vogg has going on from 5.00>End? I have no knowledge of guitar playing so it's all learning for me!
Vogg is one of the best rhythm guitarists in modern metal. Even though he's definitely moved away from the more technical level in the pre-Blood Mantra Decapitated discography you can pick up some of his really intricate nuances in this playthrough. Hope he does more!
The guy shreds and plays awesome lead. He's the perfect mix of rhythm and lead.
Rhythm guitarist?🤔
The brutality of that right hand beating the riffs into that guitar.. outstanding. Also that 7 string Iceman Sig needs to happen asap
Nihility is the sickest album I’ve ever heard. No one made riffs like that back in 2000
Word
Vogg is a fu**ing rhythm guitar beast...
He's VERY good lead player too, he's very fast
nobody want to talk about how sick their bass tone has been on every album!
Only up until Organic hallucinosis
Martin was great
yes yes yes
The tone on Anticult is the most perfect, flawless death metal tone I've ever heard. Like a knife the size of the moon crashing into the Earth at 1,000mph. To be fair, that's what a 5150III, sick bass, and proper mixing will do for you.
@@Alannaki4970 the bass tone on Organic and onwards is godlike. You can hear the bass clanking in the background and it sounds sick
man his tone is soo good. Vogg is tha man!
Doesnt cut through the mix very well so its really hard to appreciate whatever tone he dialed in.
2:54 that shit is too tasty!!! That gritty ass pinch harmonic is the bees knees..
Kamizi doesnt cut through the mix? are you deaf? The tone is in your face phat
Yea, id like to hear the tone on its own to really judge it, cant do it based off this video.
Kamizi 2:55
3:47 "Bad bitches weren't real"
the next line "can we fuck?"
o kurwa, ale rozpierdol... wszystko jest: technika, melodia, połamańce, groove, rokendrol, swoboda... juz nie mogę się doczekać jak se pogadamy...
Dimebag of Groove Death Metal.
HE'LL YEAAA! "PAN-CAPITATED-ERA"!! VOGG = DIME-BAG FROM THE DEAD RISE UP!!!
Never. It's Vogg from Decapitated.
Dimebag is overrated, Malmsteen is 10 times better
Nick Wick ohh yeah then steve vai is better than malmsteen 10 folds you dumbass. Its not about the speed, its about the metal spirit. Vogg is given dimes name because dimebag was a metal god. It’s an honor. And dont you ever say malmsteen is better than dime you noob.
@@kotanovakotaMalmsteen es ciertamente genial, un virtuoso, pero Dime podría tocar riffs mucho más geniales, los cortes rápidos de Malms
I’m absolutely confident Vogg and Hauch would just be dynamic together. If they have something out there already, please let me know!
This comment right here man.
Absolute wet dream right here!

How is this "went to shit"? This is a masterpiece right here@@dizzuhl

So glad this band is getting the attention it deserves these days.
the proof that 7 string guitars can do something else than djent
Only when in the right hands
This guitar should make it to production one day
Its tuned to Drop B which I find pretty strange though
@@kurukq woah really? That's an odd choice.
ever heard of a lovely band called deftones?

That's what I've been saying this whole time! Zakk wyld doesnt do Dimebag justice, but we all know DimeVogg would.
Christ I've always love the Iceman, but this specific model is KILLING ME. Total dream metal guitar material.
@@CommonCensorship Most likely an LACS Artist one-off for Vogg
Rip Dime!Im pretty sure that without dime we wouldnt have this guy playing these awesome groovy riffs like that.Dime was the main influence for every guy who plays groove metal.
Best right hand technique in the business, nobody can touch him... Not even close. Such an amazing guitar player!
Small Buj Samuli Peltola from Medeia
Small Buj Pat O'Brian would probably put him to shame. He is extremely good though and Decapitated is one of my favs.
Small Buj John Browne would like a word...
Small Buj What is so special about his right hand technique?
Hyppyrotta I've seen Decapitated a bunch of times live and it's crushing. He picks the strings with a lot of power, super fast and precise, never makes a mistake.

Can you just sell the signature Iceman 7-string already, Ibanez? I've always wanted one. Preferably a baritone scale.
Sacredgeometry do you know what pickup it has?
Sacredgeometry why has this not happened yet?
26.5” scale, please!
@@bernieorbust6104 Dimarzio Evolution
@@martinjaramillo5205 Met Vogg not long ago and found out he recently switched to D activator's but still uses evolutions sometimes
best guitat tone of the past decade. By far
This guy will never stop writing killer riffs
3:09 hit me like a fucking truck
a small truck
rofl
Absolutely love this dissonant tapping.
I love Vogg’s Dimebag shirt!!! Hell yeah!!
Fajny gość. Fajnie gra. No i fajna ściana za plecami. Wszystko fajnie. Pozytywnie
Ohhhh. Those killer sounds from Vogg's guitar. I always love this....
Decapitated
Be a fan of Decap till the time Vitek was still alive, but i really love their new stuff. Three new album is godlike
Absolutely incredible!
I never really had a thing for an Ibanez Iceman.....until now. Damn it!
Such an incredible guitarist!
2:55 - moments like this...
This riff is so monstrous
Absolutely disgusting
I have just discovered Decapitated and WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW.......then to see you cover it with an incredible performance...... NICE JOB
Me too. Six years later😂😂And I'm loving their music so much
Uwielbiam patrzeć jak ten gość z łatwością gra na gitarze
Mistrz !!!!

That Iceman ... ! I'm drooling !
Awesome shit. Creative, melodic and passionate metal.
2:55 Pantera vibes /m\
Dimebag Darrel!!!

Dime would be proud
One of my favorite guitar players!
NO , This is God Of Metal !!!! the solo of 1:57 is making your soul back into your body , if u dont agree me fu :D
Sound like solo Meshuggah
2:55 Who loves this part?
Still fresh after all these years!
Thick grooves!
Great tone. Those EVH's are always reliable. Sweet guitar as well!
Ibanez must release his signature model.... especially with this great looking , thick binding .
i want an iceman like that one now!!!
Welcome back!
These riffs have so much “MASS”.
These guys have had to endure so much shit over the years, glad to see them still going at it.
All bow down the god Vogg !
Wow amazing!!!!!! Can never get enough of decapitated🤘🔥🔥🔥
BEST METAL GUITAR PLAYER EVER!!!
That tight & punchy tone. Just the way I like it!

THe best, glad to know they are free

His is a LACS, but Ibanez released some to the American market for one year. They were an X-series MIC, and the one I owned was definitely not an easy guitar to play.
Bowen Matheson do you know what pickup it has in it?
Dimarzio Evolution 7 bridge: www.dimarzio.com/node/2223
And it has a blocked Lo-Pro Edge 7 string tremolo bridge.
Bowen Matheson Thanks.
I may be tripping on acid but this is the greatest shit ever right now....he really gets into his shit.
Vogg ist always creating really delicious bites in guitar riffing, incredible riffing as always!
His shirt says it all, Dime lives, at least in some sections of this song.
That guitar is the coolest looking thing. :)
3:09 that motherfucking bass tone.
I was at their concert in the netherlands last week
3:38 INCH ALLAAAAAAAAAAAAAh LOL
OMG xDDD HIlarious I didn't notice that
RIP Dimebag and Vitek
Dear Ibanez any IC7WVKM in the future ?
3:23 How to play such an Amazing Pinch harmonic with an upstroke???
It's a downstroke, though..
Got the exact same shirt. Much respect :D
wouaaaouh ! Vogg is a master !!!!
What pickup he used ? sounds great
Great as always \m/

Gotta learn this
Drop B on a 7? Wait, so how does this work? Isn't B on a 7 just regular 6 string E with a natural B at the bottom? What's the rest tuned to if it's a drop tuning?
Without knowing, logically it would be tuning the rest of the guitar a whole step up, if the rest of the guitar is still in "standard" of course.
I think they play in Drop C not B.....anyway,drop B would be BF#BEG#C# and drop C -> CGCFAD
No, that's definitely a B.
Indeed, checked on my guitar before replying too. And what you wrote down, kostas, are for 6-stringed guitars, where he uses a 7-string
It would just be everything else a step up
A handful of bands tune to Drop B on a 7 string, I think All Shall Perish is one of the more well known examples.
what tuning is this m,an? cool shit
Anyone know what tuning he’s using? Ik it’s a 7 string but it looks like he’s hitting open power chords so I’m confused
Cool shirt voggs!! heavy sound good music
Does anyone know what is the tuning? Is it starting like B drop on 7 ? Thx
Good job!
Sick 🤟
Any one know what model Iceman this is?
Which gear is this riff Monster using?
Love you vogg!!!!!
Awesomeness.
How did he tune a 7 string to drop b?
What the effec pedal ..

Anyone know the 100% correct tuning for this song?
