i remember the older kids in my neighborhood used to listen to this album while we played halo 2. it was the 2nd cd i ever owned (meteora). masterpiece. it was too hard to play then haha stoked to finally learn. thanks dude!
WOW! R.I.P. The Rev. I remember playing this song on a guitar competition at school, lost to someone who played Crazy Train but idgaf just wanted the school to hear A7X lol
"Where has he gone? What have you done?! A voice commands from high above this earth! From the soil his blood cries out to me!! Murder, liar, vengeance, deceit!!!" Fucking chills, every goddamm time!
This album was my introduction to modern metal and goddamn if it isnt one of their best works. Every single FUCKING song slaps on that album!! Still have my Waking the Fallen tee haha so dope!!
I miss the 2000s so bad. Now I'm 34 and can't seem to reach the same level of happiness that decade gave me. And this album was like my anthem for it all.
Waking the Fallen was such a huge album for me. It literally did not leave my car's cd player for almost 6 months. I remember taking out the CD and the label on the front had completely peeled off. My heart breaks knowing we will never get another album like WTF.
Nik this is my first avenged sevenfold with solo in it that I can actually learn rn and this video is helping alot I just wanna say ty man you helped me alot in my guitar journey
Oh, man... This was the first song I ever heard by Avenged Sevenfold back in 4th or 5th grade and it was rather world shattering. Those guitar harmonies were pure, unadulterated OJ to my innocent ears. Was a huge inspiration on me picking up a guitar. Didn’t really care for their later albums.
18 years later but better than never One of the best musics of Avenged' metalcore era A cover of all things will end would be a smash, congrats for the cover Nik, grretings from Brazil
A7X is really impressive. They had one of the best drummers in world, synyster and Zacky are both amazing guitarists (actually one right and one left handed, what looks pretty cool on stage), M. Shadows has such a powerfull and unique voice…. And I guess some bass is in there too
it's ridiculous how well this album stands to this day, my god the melodies, the riffs, the breakdowns, they had it all and they were barely getting started... great job Nik 🤘 no flaws in your playing and nice guitar tone for this one too not bad
Me and my college roommate jammed on this so much. We learned most of the album and would send a couple beers and jam like we were syn and zacky. Probably my favorite song off the album (also the dueling guitar melodies are god tier)
Honestly bro I think we need a cover of Loathe - Servant and Master, it’s an extremely underrated song in their catalogue and it’s probably their best breakdown
First song I learned on guitar, first song that made me a metal head, first song that my highschool crush recommended to me and I still love this band to this day. Happy to see a cover of it by you man!
I dont know if this song is underrated cause I dont even care! it's one of my favourites! and yeah I think Waking the fallen is Peak and pure avenged sevenfold, not in a "Technical" way they've progressed so far and I still love them, but this album man... for me, it's something else EDIT: I wanna see you play some shogun era Trivium man! Torn Between Scylla and Charybdis would be sick!
For my favorite band in Avenged Sevenfold and my favorite screamo album in Waking the Fallen… Chapter Four never disappoints! Great cover Nik, was unexpected but that’s what makes it still awesome. Hopefully Album #8 from them will be amazing by summer of next year. 🤘
*This album still slaps*
Smash like
Like smashed
Hell yeah 🤘😈🤘
SAVE ME!!! NEXT
Dude! Bullet uploaded another new song called Parasite 5 hours ago. Goes alright hey

Facts
Its rare to see a cover with more melodic than breakdown from nik, hope to see a cover of second heartbeat 🔥🔥🔥
we need that
Swear he did that but yeah suck either way
Second heartbeat has my favorite solo. Check out mat ronins cover of it
Yes ,please!
omg yes please THIS! the solo at the end I can't get enough of it even after x years xD
You are the goat for covering this. Probably one of their most underrated songs.
Agreed.. people go for Unholy Confessions so much, I personally love this one more.. Waking the Fallen is such a great album..
This and Second Heartbeat are such damn well written songs
@@advaitpetiwale9596 This is probably my favourite Avenged Sevenfold song
WOW! R.I.P. The Rev. I remember playing this song on a guitar competition at school, lost to someone who played Crazy Train but idgaf just wanted the school to hear A7X lol
Damn crazy train. Always steals the show lol. Check out leftlanetheory's cover of it. Its called epic train
Avengeds best album imo
ALSO: Taste the curry
I always heard Kool-Aid LOL
Synyster gates and Zacky are very underrated guitarists. They are so creative when coming to creat riffs and all types of grooves. One of my fav bands
how are they underrated lol, A7X is as popular as they can get.
Synster and zacky write atcually good melodies damn I love a7x can't wait for their new album
They announced a new album?
@@isaiah1660 gonna be out before summer 2022
@@isaiah1660 look for the preview "Into the ether"
@@isaiah1660 2022 brooo
any singles out?
4:49 this part especially, gives me chills
Yup!!!
2:32 dude that startled me lol
Maybe my favourite a7x. This song just has everything man.
Totally agree dude, fuck yeah
I don't listen to Avenged Sevenfold much anymore, but Chapter Four and Second Heartbeat still slaps.
@@C0reyTaylor8 second heartbeat is definitely my favorite
Amen, mine fav as well.
"Where has he gone? What have you done?!
A voice commands from high above this earth!
From the soil his blood cries out to me!!
Murder, liar, vengeance, deceit!!!"
Fucking chills, every goddamm time!
Underrated a7x the whole album is a masterpiece
This album was my introduction to modern metal and goddamn if it isnt one of their best works. Every single FUCKING song slaps on that album!! Still have my Waking the Fallen tee haha so dope!!
Yeah dude I remember really being into this when I was 14
While we're on A7X I would love a sidewinder cover
SAY IT LOUDER!
I WOULD LOVE A SIDEWINDER COVER!
what a pleasant surprise….that solo never fail to bring joy to my ears…simple yet groovy…🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
hey
Classic A7X back when shadow screamed and growled also my favourite track of there's
What I love about Avenged is the melodic and sometimes heavy as fuck vocals
More Avenged Sevenfold pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee
I had to rewind and rewatch the solo from 4:30 to 4:50 about 5 times because it was just so disgustingly melodic
The song that started my metal journey.
I miss the 2000s so bad. Now I'm 34 and can't seem to reach the same level of happiness that decade gave me. And this album was like my anthem for it all.
Ah yes the story they were named after, perfect
Cain and Abel
4:30 again
One of the best albums of ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL time!
Waking the Fallen was such a huge album for me. It literally did not leave my car's cd player for almost 6 months. I remember taking out the CD and the label on the front had completely peeled off. My heart breaks knowing we will never get another album like WTF.
For some reason I thought this was second heartbeat... I'm like no way he doing that solo at the end 😆 great cover!!
The look of pain for a split second at 2:33
Your way of playing the solo is so much easier than what I've been doing all these years. So glad you posted this
i used to get so hype when i was like 5 when this song came on in nascar thunder 2004
Such a great game with great music
It was also on madden 2004
Ugh the nostalgia 😫
My first Avenged song ever. And by far my fav album by them.
My favorite avenged sevenfold song of all time
That solo is easily one of my favorites from this album.
Man, this was the first song I ever heard from Avenged. Takes me way back
What is this soft rock tuning? The low string is actually audible, no way.
_/s_
bro that's a typo right? it supposed to be /j right?? D:
Drop D lmao so soft 🥰
NOTIFICATION SQUAD
hell yeah
Fuck yeah
ASSSEEEMBLE!!!
Here here
Yessir
The very BEST A7X album, none of their other albums come close to this one.
Nah City of Evil, Self Titled, and Nightmare are definitely better
@@rowanviles1935 i really only agree with city of evil, nightmare was honestly just good, nothing too insane or pop out
as a massive A7X fan, I agree, WTF is untouchable
Nik this is my first avenged sevenfold with solo in it that I can actually learn rn and this video is helping alot I just wanna say ty man you helped me alot in my guitar journey
I love how you can listen to this whole album al the way through and every song flows together with the next yet still has a different feel
This was completely out of left field and I am all here for it. Fantastic song and an awesome cover my dude.
Exactly what I needed today after a bad day at work: my favorite guitarist covering my favorite A7X song from my childhood :)
For the past year or so, Nik has consistently covered songs I'm into just after I discover them. It's so freaky, but I love it.
Oh, man... This was the first song I ever heard by Avenged Sevenfold back in 4th or 5th grade and it was rather world shattering. Those guitar harmonies were pure, unadulterated OJ to my innocent ears. Was a huge inspiration on me picking up a guitar. Didn’t really care for their later albums.
I absolutely love the riff in the background of the bridge, it's so unique!
We need Remenissions cover!!!
Yesssssss my dude
18 years later but better than never
One of the best musics of Avenged' metalcore era
A cover of all things will end would be a smash, congrats for the cover Nik, grretings from Brazil
Still one of the best A7X songs ever written...those juicy melodies and guitar licks will always be in my playlist.. always
Best avenged song of all time
Haven't heard this song in years - still remember every word. Absolutely one of a7x's best ever
Always loved the solo melody part towards the end. Waking The Fallen man…so good.
A7X is really impressive. They had one of the best drummers in world, synyster and Zacky are both amazing guitarists (actually one right and one left handed, what looks pretty cool on stage), M. Shadows has such a powerfull and unique voice…. And I guess some bass is in there too
First A7X song I ever heard because it was on madden 04. Probably still my favorite song and waking the fallen is for sure my favorite album 🤘🏼
it's ridiculous how well this album stands to this day, my god the melodies, the riffs, the breakdowns, they had it all and they were barely getting started... great job Nik 🤘 no flaws in your playing and nice guitar tone for this one too not bad

4:56 guitargasm
Honestly bro I think we need a cover of Loathe - Servant and Master, it’s an extremely underrated song in their catalogue and it’s probably their best breakdown
I'm getting MAJOR madden nfl 04 flashbacks and vibes with this! Wow, I feel old!
Hidden gem of an album man
This is literally what got me into the metal genre
Still one of my favorite A7X tunes. I had this on in the background and I genuinely forgot it was a cover for half of it.
Had me swaying along irl. What a tune.
Man, this was the song that got me into the entire genre.. in middle school
Dude i literally came back to listening avenged like in ol' times, and Your cover just slaped me right in the face
This song made me realize I was falling in love with metal, when I discovered it on Madden 04. Played the album countless times.
I swear I have a new favorite song off that album every month
First Avenged song I listened to. NHL 2004 baby! Changed my life in terms of music listening
no ones talking about 2:32 gave me the heeby jeebys
edit 4:56HAAAH WHAT
First song I learned on guitar, first song that made me a metal head, first song that my highschool crush recommended to me and I still love this band to this day. Happy to see a cover of it by you man!
SAME TO ALL HAHAHAH jynx \m/
@@ameeerkatlol nice!
I had forgotten how good this is.
Bruh, I was watching my 2nd monitor and this 2:33 scared the hell out of me hjahahhaha
This was the first metal song I actually committed to learning. I almost forgot tbh. Great cover
A7x best song. I remember being like 14 hearing this for the first time. Blew my mind
Yess!!! This is my favorite song on the Waking The Fallen album!
Brings me back to when my first band Freshman year of high school covered this. Nice job!
sick cover
This is the album that started it all for me
One of my fav A7X song

Came here for 4:31 but stayed for 0:00 - 6:17... 🙌
5:00 when the second guitar harmony hits 🥵
Favorite A7x song and arguable their best album. Hell yeah
I dont know if this song is underrated cause I dont even care! it's one of my favourites! and yeah I think Waking the fallen is Peak and pure avenged sevenfold, not in a "Technical" way they've progressed so far and I still love them, but this album man... for me, it's something else

One of the gems in WTF Abum.
Childhood days!! This album is superior!!

For my favorite band in Avenged Sevenfold and my favorite screamo album in Waking the Fallen… Chapter Four never disappoints! Great cover Nik, was unexpected but that’s what makes it still awesome. Hopefully Album #8 from them will be amazing by summer of next year. 🤘
