Dear LORD Alex can SCREAM his ASS off. Saw him at Blue Ridge, man they fucking ROCKED. Alex is a down to earth motherfucker too, he wasn't all uppity with "oh I'll only see fans at meet and greet" - hell no. He was OUT THERE WITH US, he was in the PITS with US, he was there TALKING TO US without charging us EXTRA, he showed he is just as BIG A FAN as WE ARE for metal. And the other cool thing is he'd have death metal screaming competitions with SO MANY OF US. Another thing I wanted to say: DAMN, at 7:40, that BREAKDOWN sounds so KILLER. its like you can't help but roll your eyes back like the Undertaker and just feel like punching and kicking, that one part that bends/releases sounds like falling through the fiery pits, then that pinch harmonic? JESUS, lol EVEN YOU couldn't help but roll your eyes back, its like it just possesses you! KICK ASS NIK KICK ASS ALEX and thanks to both of you for not being uppity motherfuckers, for being down to earth friendly folks who aren't in it for wealth or money but for the art and aggression, the passion is there, I fucking love it
The other cool thing about Alex was at Blue Ridge, he spoke on stage and was thankful to be there and spoke out against war and was saying basically how he didn't like any government, doesn't like how governments treat their people and didn't approve of the stupid invasion of Ukraine. This is cool as fuck, seeing Russians and Ukrainians getting along, I fucking love it man
The fact that Nik takes the time to change into the same sweatshirt to ask people to subscribe every video is the type of dedication that deserves a subscription to the channel
Nik is an underrated guitarist. He always talks about himself like he sucks, but he always rises to the occasion. His Spiritbox solo was impressive as is the ability to learn stuff just by listening to it
A lot of people get mad when someone “rips off” their sound, but the fact that STP and Alex not only endorse it, but Alex HIMSELF is the vocalist on it, is absolutely pure magic and a testament to how fucking cool those guys are. We’ll done 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
I think the way that Nik does it, with how he titles this series, making a completely original song, and by clearly stating that he is making a song in their style at the beginning of the video, shows that he's doing it out of respect and love for the bands and not to "rip them off" to try to get a bunch of views quickly. The fact that he also makes quality songs as the end product also shows that he's putting in tons of effort to make something well worth listening to.
He's also kind of a staple in the scene now, going on stage with bands, having all these amazing guests, his obvious talent and humour, I don't think there are actually any band that is 'mad' about his video series
One of the reasons Alex is so great is he and will Ramos are so present and available online. They are always giving us content. And Nik is lucky to have so much involvement in one of greatest deathcore vocalists.
I feel like his award show that he does helped him a lot with stuff like this. Bands like these guys get nothing close to what country, hip hop, rap, or anything for shows on tv, but Nik shows them all a ton of respect.
Its impressive the network Nik have built over the, actually not so many "bigger years" I think the industry thing really kicked off when everything shut down and people in the business got time on their hands
Yeah, as the others said: He always WANTED other vocalists to do it, it's the point, part of the fun, and i LOVE it. Dickie Allen was who he thought of herem But then he had asked the STP drummer for advice on writing the song and he told Nick that Alex wants to do the vocals. You don’t deny that request 😂
**LYRICS**: (and attempt to translate) So, I managed to decrypt the lyrics of this song, which turned out to be a song written by a renowned soviet musician Vladimir Vysotsky called "Вот это да" (in English would be "Wow"). I also took some time to try to translate it. Russian: Вот это да, вот это да! Сквозь мрак и вечность - решето, Из зала Страшного суда Явилось то - не знаю что.
Играйте туш! Быть может, он - Умерший муж Несчастных жен, Больных детей Больной отец, Благих вестей Шальной гонец.
Вот это да, вот это да! Спустился к нам - не знаем кто, - Как снег на голову суда, Упал тайком, инкогнито! Но кто же он? Хитрец и лгун? Или - шпион, Или колдун? Каких дворцов Он господин, Каких отцов Заблудший сын? Вот это да, вот это да! И я спросил, как он рискнул, - Из ниоткуда в никуда Перешагнул, перешагнул? Он мне: «Внемли!» И я внимал, Что он с Земли Вчера сбежал, Решил: «Нырну Я в гладь и тишь!» Но в тишину Без денег - шиш! Мол, прошмыгну Как мышь, как вошь, Но в тишину Не прошмыгнешь! Вот это да, вот это да! Он повидал печальный край, - В аду - бардак и лабуда, - И он опять - в наш грешный рай. Итак, оттуда Он удрал, Его Иуда Обыграл - И в «тридцать три», И в «сто одно». Смотри, смотри! Он видел дно, Он видел ад, Но сделал он Свой шаг назад - И воскрешен! Вот это да, вот это да! Прошу любить, играйте марш! Мак-Кинли - маг, суперзвезда, Мессия наш, мессия наш! Владыка тьмы Его отверг, Но примем мы - Он человек! Душ не губил Сей славный муж, Самоубий- ство - просто чушь, Хоть это де- шево и враз - Не проведешь Его и нас! Вот это да, вот это да! Вскричал петух, и пробил час. Мак-Кинли - бог, суперзвезда, - Он - среди нас, он - среди нас! Вот это да, вот это да! Сквозь мрак и вечность-решето, Из зала Страшного суда Явилось то - не знаю что.
Больных детей Больной отец, Благих вестей Шальной гонец. Играйте туш! Быть может, он - Умерший муж Несчастных жен, Из зала Страшного суда Явилось то - не знаю что. Больных детей Больной отец, Благих вестей Шальной гонец. English: Sensational, oh what a sight! Through dark and time, a mystery, From Judgment Hall, in dead of night, Appears a form, what could it be?
Sound the fanfare! Perhaps he could - Be husband lost Of sorrow wives, Ill father to Ill children or A messenger To tidings strong.
Sensational, oh what a sight! Descends to us, who could he be, Appeared in Hall, out of the blue He lands in secret, silently. But who is he? A trickster, liar? Or a spy, Or sorcerer? Of what palace Is he a lord, Which fathers' is he a lost son? Sensational, oh what a sight! I asked him how he dared to roam, From nowhere into endless night, He crossed the void, yet he found home He said: «Listen!» And I listened, From Earth he ran Just yesterday, I dared: «I'll dive Into the void! Into the clear, Into the still» But silence asks A price to pay! No coin in hand - You cannot stay Sensational, oh what a sight! He saw the depths, a place forlorn, From Hell's own chaos and despite, He's back to sinful paradise. And so from there, He made his flight, By Judas tricked, in Broad daylight - In "thirty-three," And "one-o-one," Now look, now look! He saw the depths, He's been to Hell, And now he's back He turned to flee - and is reborn! Sensational, oh what a sight! Now play the march, and pay some love! McKinley's here, a star so bright, Our savior's here, in pure daylight. The Lord of Dark Rejected him, But we'll accept - No soul was harmed Upon his quest This faithful man, And suicide - is just a jest Though this is cheap Nevertheless, You won't deceive Nor Him, nor us! Sensational, oh what a sight! The rooster crows, the hour has come, McKinley's here, our guiding light, He's among us, he's among us. Sensational, oh what a sight! Through dark and time, a mystery, From Judgment Hall, in dead of night, Appears a form, what could it be?
Ill father to Ill children or A messenger To tidings strong. Sound the fanfare! Perhaps he could - Be husband lost Of sorrow wives. From Judgment Hall, in dead of night, Appears a form, what could it be? Ill father to Ill children or A messenger To tidings strong.

The rooster crowed, announcing the night, McKinley - a god, shining star right, He's among us, illuminating the night. He pondered and found Eternity’s just fluff, So he came around, To our earthly rough. He never was fooled, Even in a drunken spree, Marijuana wasn't His cup of tea. We want to escape, Our ends drawing near, In flight we take shape, We're fugitives here! Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
@@pauriusd6626 yeah, all the lyrics from the song are really close to the original poem with slight modifications and poem/song is in Russian. I had a moment there where I thought I was going crazy recognizing those Vysotsky fragments! 😅
Bro, I got to the gym, opened spotify and saw you released a new track with Alex. Heard it and was just craving the vid to come out. Finally. Amazing job, guys 💪🔥💪🔥
His tone was perfect though, he always says he can't play very well but I call bullshit. Sometimes laying down a rift that sounds full yet its not as difficult as astrophysics, is a feat in itself. Nik you can rip buddy, sounded great.
This is crazy! Wrote a song for S2P and have Alex do vocals for video. Its so great that a bunch of huge band singer and guitarists are just youtubers in their off time.
Daumn. . That break-down at the end had me on the edge of my seat. . As soon as the build up started, i almost broke my neck thrashing it back and forth. Good job Nic and Alex 🤘
Of all the things Nik has nailed in this series I think this is the one he has nailed the hardest. Obviously, having The Beastman himself in the vocals helps quite a bit.
Just got my wisdom teeth out yesterday, and this awesomeness has just taken my mind off the pain-thank you Nik and Alex for the awesomeness!!!! Still can’t believe my painting is behind Alex 😭❤️
Man this is the reason a love metal bands, the members are so down to earth and cool as hell, im happy for nick he finally did his colab with Alex now he has left his collabo with will
Would 100% not be surprised if this ended up getting played by STP on some live show and out of nowhere our homie Nik just pops out on stage with his trusty stringy boi just banging the doors of the hinges
That actually sounded pretty bad ass. With Alex doing vocals, it sounds like a legit STP song. Good shit 🤘 Alex is always a beast. When he passes gas it probably growls🤷♂️ Evgeny Novikov would do a bit more on the drums. There would definitely be some cymbal bell fills in empty spaces if he wrote drums for this.
@@laurenfazenbaker9777 I agree, he has the perfect balance of speed, groove, and special technical notes that catch your attention. He's probably one of the most balanced drummers in modern metal imo.
I played this on a Bluetooth speaker while gardening and luckily I had my big boy shovel because all of my dead pets started climbing out of the ground.
I'm turning 50 in July and I have to say the past year I can't believe the evolution of death metal. I actually cried the first time I heard Alex. the Quality of music that one man can make in his room just blows my mind.
А получилось даже хорошо, особенно интро с медведями And it's also good that Alex often began to collaborate with many people like Mick Gordon, or Nick Nocturnal
can you explain to me when did anyone say that this will be on stp's new album? If it's a bonus track then it's fine but otherwise it would be nuts to put it on the actual album
@@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead yeah i know what you said but i read a dozen comments and even galacticCriminal said that stp wanted the song for the album and i was like what the fuck
To the question: How should i name this band😅 the perfect choice in my opinion would be: Nocturnal Slaughter. This was freakin awesome, i Hope you make more with Alex
I guess Nik is not gonna answer this but I'm curious if he'd be okay to let them perform it live, if the band and their fans like the song. Sick job dude, as always
I translated the song. Lots of references to how beautiful the seasons are, care bears, holiday foods, and romantic poetry....... my translation could be wrong though 🤔
It's actually lyrics from "vot eto da!" by Vladimir Vysotsky. It was originally written for a movie, where a man, fearing nuclear war and other contemporary problems, does everything to secure a ticket to a "salvatorium" that would make him wake up 250 years later and avoid all of that, but has a dream where he wakes up to a devastated world, realises that the time skip won't solve anything and decides against it last moment. The lyrics are actually really beautiful, but I don't think there is a good way to translate them
Smash like for more bear metal things and stream "Obscurity" here: open.spotify.com/album/7Il1ko1a6o93Mctrn1pCYP
Dear LORD Alex can SCREAM his ASS off. Saw him at Blue Ridge, man they fucking ROCKED. Alex is a down to earth motherfucker too, he wasn't all uppity with "oh I'll only see fans at meet and greet" - hell no. He was OUT THERE WITH US, he was in the PITS with US, he was there TALKING TO US without charging us EXTRA, he showed he is just as BIG A FAN as WE ARE for metal. And the other cool thing is he'd have death metal screaming competitions with SO MANY OF US.
Another thing I wanted to say: DAMN, at 7:40, that BREAKDOWN sounds so KILLER. its like you can't help but roll your eyes back like the Undertaker and just feel like punching and kicking, that one part that bends/releases sounds like falling through the fiery pits, then that pinch harmonic? JESUS, lol EVEN YOU couldn't help but roll your eyes back, its like it just possesses you!
KICK ASS NIK
KICK ASS ALEX
and thanks to both of you for not being uppity motherfuckers, for being down to earth friendly folks who aren't in it for wealth or money but for the art and aggression, the passion is there, I fucking love it

I have to da da da da
Da da da da
For the rest of my life now
Awesome
🤘
Cringed
You know slaughter to prevail vocalist is a neo-Nazi
The fact that Nik takes the time to change into the same sweatshirt to ask people to subscribe every video is the type of dedication that deserves a subscription to the channel
Because he does fun metal things here
This actually got me, ngl
And gets a haircut
its a precorded clip, i wish you were actually funny and not pathetic and cringe.
And here I thought it was pre recorded. Silly me
When 2 guys in a room make better songs than 99% of industry with an army of producers, mixers, budgets, and all they can get lol

Sorry I had to be that guy🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@leodjondo3489😐

Nik: how much bear noises are you going to put in the song?
Alex: Yes
yes TRAVIS RYAN!!!!!
He wrestled a bear once
😂🔥
Alex Terrible seems like such a genuinely nice chill guy. Ironic given the name and vocals.
He's a literal Neo Nazi
Nik is an underrated guitarist. He always talks about himself like he sucks, but he always rises to the occasion. His Spiritbox solo was impressive as is the ability to learn stuff just by listening to it
Remember when he covered WANYK in 24 hrs of release 😂😂 fuckin insane player
All the best players think they are the worst and all the worst players think they are the best. Funny that
Woah, what Spiritbox solo?!

I thought this was a joke, but then I realized Nik is the reason I know who STP is. So, you're not wrong.

И я спросил, как он рискнул, -

И я внимал,

Вчера сбежал,
Решил: «Нырну
Я в гладь и тишь!»
Но в тишину
Без денег - шиш!
Мол, прошмыгну
Как мышь, как вошь,
Но в тишину
Не прошмыгнешь!
Вот это да, вот это да!
Он повидал печальный край, -
В аду - бардак и лабуда, -
И он опять - в наш грешный рай.
Итак, оттуда
Он удрал,
Его Иуда
Обыграл -
И в «тридцать три»,
И в «сто одно».
Смотри, смотри!
Он видел дно,
Он видел ад,
Но сделал он
Свой шаг назад -
И воскрешен!

English:
Sensational, oh what a sight!
Through dark and time, a mystery,
From Judgment Hall, in dead of night,
Appears a form, what could it be?
Sound the fanfare!
Perhaps he could -
Be husband lost
Of sorrow wives,
Ill father to
Ill children or
A messenger
To tidings strong.
Sensational, oh what a sight!
Descends to us, who could he be,
Appeared in Hall, out of the blue
He lands in secret, silently.
But who is he?
A trickster, liar?
Or a spy,
Or sorcerer?
Of what palace
Is he a lord,
Which fathers' is
he a lost son?
Sensational, oh what a sight!
I asked him how he dared to roam,
From nowhere into endless night,
He crossed the void, yet he found home
He said: «Listen!»
And I listened,
From Earth he ran
Just yesterday,
I dared: «I'll dive
Into the void!
Into the clear,
Into the still»
But silence asks
A price to pay!
No coin in hand -
You cannot stay
Sensational, oh what a sight!
He saw the depths, a place forlorn,
From Hell's own chaos and despite,
He's back to sinful paradise.
And so from there,
He made his flight,
By Judas tricked, in
Broad daylight -
In "thirty-three,"
And "one-o-one,"
Now look, now look!
He saw the depths,
He's been to Hell,
And now he's back
He turned to flee -
and is reborn!
Sensational, oh what a sight!
Now play the march, and pay some love!
McKinley's here, a star so bright,
Our savior's here, in pure daylight.
The Lord of Dark
Rejected him,
But we'll accept -
No soul was harmed
Upon his quest
This faithful man,
And suicide -
is just a jest
Though this is cheap
Nevertheless,
You won't deceive
Nor Him, nor us!
Sensational, oh what a sight!
The rooster crows, the hour has come,
McKinley's here, our guiding light,
He's among us, he's among us.
Sensational, oh what a sight!
Through dark and time, a mystery,
From Judgment Hall, in dead of night,
Appears a form, what could it be?
Ill father to
Ill children or
A messenger
To tidings strong.
Sound the fanfare!
Perhaps he could -
Be husband lost
Of sorrow wives.
From Judgment Hall, in dead of night,
Appears a form, what could it be?
Ill father to
Ill children or
A messenger
To tidings strong.
As a Russian myself, I would say you did a pretty good job translating it, great work!

Beautiful translation. Don't remember this song, but then, he had a LOT of those. Who is McKinley?
That's hella good translation/adaptation
As a vocalist Alex and Travis Ryan are our versions of a guitarist that just makes someone like Nik go "nah I suck I quit" 😂 he makes it look so easy.
Will Ramos is that for me rn, I hear anything he does and I’m like “yup, I’m done”
There's just no one that can match the abysmal deepness of Alex's vocals
@RougeSanta how could us humans match the vocal prowess of a Russian bear
People need to pitch shift their voice to sound like Travis sometimes 🤣
basically
That break down, bruh...... Sends the chills. That was awesome sauce! Finally got Alex to make something with you and grats on 1m subs!
This is exactly what we needed. Love the respect from Alex as well
Dude, you don't get enough credit. You're on UA-cam doing what most people can't do in a studio, let alone their own house. 💯💯
Apparently Alex is singing the poem of Vladimir Vysotsky, which is called "Песня Билла Сигера".
Please find translation of the original lyrics bellow (the full version):
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
Through darkness, eternity's frame tight,
From the Hall of the Final Judgment's glow,
Appears this entity - I don’t quite know.
Sound the fanfare loud!
Could he possibly be -
A dead husband of
Some grieving ladies?
Sick children's
Ailing father he stands,
Or perhaps just a jesting
Messenger of some lands?
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
He came to us - his identity, out of sight,
Like snow falling silent and pure,
He's snuck in, incognito for sure.
But who might he be -
A deceiver, a cheat?
Or a spy, maybe
A wizard discrete?
Which palaces' lord
Is he, standing so tall?
Which father's lost ward,
Returned from a fall?
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
I asked how he took such a perilous flight,
From nowhere to somewhere, making the stride,
Crossing over, from the other side.
He said, "Listen here!" -
And I lent him my ear,
That from Earth he did
Run away in fear.
He thought, "I'll dive deep,
Into calmness and peace,"
But without any cash,
Such dreams quickly cease.
He thought he'd sneak in,
Quiet as a louse,
But silence won't let
Sneakers into its house.
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
He's seen chaos, the underworld's plight,
Yet despite the hell and its messy brawl,
He's back here, in our sinful hall.
So from there he escaped,
Deceived by a traitor's design,
Both in "thirty-three"
And "one hundred and one" line.
Look! Behold!
He's seen the abyss so cold,
Yet took a step bold,
And resurrected, we're told!
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
Please show love - play a marching delight!
McKinley - a mage, a star so bright,
Our messiah, standing in the light.
The dark lord did
Cast him away,
But we will admit -
He's human, we say!
He hasn't done wrong,
This man of repute,
Suicide's song
Is just a dispute.
Though it's all
Quite absurd and amiss,
You won't fool
Him or any of us!
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
The rooster crowed, announcing the night,
McKinley - a god, shining star right,
He's among us, illuminating the night.
He pondered and found
Eternity’s just fluff,
So he came around,
To our earthly rough.
He never was fooled,
Even in a drunken spree,
Marijuana wasn't
His cup of tea.
We want to escape,
Our ends drawing near,
In flight we take shape,
We're fugitives here!
Well, what a sight! Oh, what a sight!
You mean all the lyrics are a poem ? And are they all in russian ? Hard to figure out with these vocals, even being a native russian speaker 😅
@@pauriusd6626 yeah, all the lyrics from the song are really close to the original poem with slight modifications and poem/song is in Russian. I had a moment there where I thought I was going crazy recognizing those Vysotsky fragments! 😅
that's amazing then...😲
Love seeing Nick helping these up and coming artists get some exposure /s.
Song was brutal. Alex is sick. This whole thing was sick.
Bro, I got to the gym, opened spotify and saw you released a new track with Alex. Heard it and was just craving the vid to come out. Finally. Amazing job, guys 💪🔥💪🔥
Thanks!
This guy sounds just like the guy from Slaughter to Prevail! Amazing you got someone so similar
Duuude just saw you hit the HUGE 1M congrats man! You've come so far brother!
if you played this with them live... itd be the ultimate collab
It’s already happened!
@@josephsorensen3960wait what
@@cile5459 he didnt play *thi* live but he did part of demolisher with them
@@benhall4766 i know about that but I thought it was this one lol
That's definitely one of the best ones so far, shredding on the guitar and Mr. Terrible🎉 nicely done
Nik looks like he's in so much pain playing half these riffs 😂😂😂 I can't imagine how sore his arm must be after making these!
His arm now, Strong like Bear!
You see, arm still attached, arm is good, comrade.
Nah that’s just guitar face😂
His tone was perfect though, he always says he can't play very well but I call bullshit. Sometimes laying down a rift that sounds full yet its not as difficult as astrophysics, is a feat in itself. Nik you can rip buddy, sounded great.
@@dca1940There's guitar faces and then the faces he was making in this video 😂 I've seen Nik's guitar face and it ain't this!
If that was on the next album, i‘d be totally fine with it. Great song🤘
This is crazy! Wrote a song for S2P and have Alex do vocals for video. Its so great that a bunch of huge band singer and guitarists are just youtubers in their off time.
Daumn. . That break-down at the end had me on the edge of my seat. . As soon as the build up started, i almost broke my neck thrashing it back and forth. Good job Nic and Alex 🤘
Of all the things Nik has nailed in this series I think this is the one he has nailed the hardest. Obviously, having The Beastman himself in the vocals helps quite a bit.
@B_Kenobi dude they’ve all been so good it’s insane
So nice of you to give this Alex guy a shot at vocals.
Great to see you promoting new, promising vocalists. Keep it up
Awesome collaboration 👌 chefs kiss!!

But no Alligator 😢
You know that when Canadian and Russian mixed together,
You get masterpiece
Add an Australian drummer and you got a stew goin baby
Both of the great white norths combine forces to dominate 🫡
Just got my wisdom teeth out yesterday, and this awesomeness has just taken my mind off the pain-thank you Nik and Alex for the awesomeness!!!! Still can’t believe my painting is behind Alex 😭❤️
THE HARD WORK NIK HAS PUT IN TO GET HERE 🎸 Bro you’ve earned all of this, let’s fucking go 🤘🏼
This is great! Awesome that Alex had so much fun with it and went all in on it as well when he didn't really have to! Now we have to hear it live!
It's honestly quite touching to see the chat greeting UA-cam viewers in the beginning, lol.
BIGGEST COLLAB EVER 😍 LOVE YOU BOTH SO FKING MUCH 🔥🔥
Nik in the groove is the vibe I live by!
Man this is the reason a love metal bands, the members are so down to earth and cool as hell, im happy for nick he finally did his colab with Alex now he has left his collabo with will
Would 100% not be surprised if this ended up getting played by STP on some live show and out of nowhere our homie Nik just pops out on stage with his trusty stringy boi just banging the doors of the hinges
Well done Nik! :D Awesome that you got Alex on it!! :D
my lights turned off at 7:10 im convinced Alex summoned satan into my room
Mad props to both of you
I literally cant belive what you did here, that video is so fun from start to finish. Well fucking done, bravo brate.
Will Ramos, Dickie Allen, and now Alex Terrible. dude you're going places and the music is absolute banger!
Bro already has 1m followers what other places could he go
@@darthvader9173 10m lol
7:35 breakdown was the hardest thing ive heard all year...
Man, Nik's been absolutely killing it lately! Greetings from Newfoundland, Canada 🇨🇦
Agreed, coming from a Nova Scotian and also part Newfoundlander!
Dude, the fact you all collaborated on this is so sick! Great job and def a brutal song in general.
This was amazing! Please do How To Emmure Next, even if it's the 30 second short, love your content man!
A how to Emmure would be great. Anything Joshua Travis touches is wild. I miss Glass Cloud :(
this is the best metal collab of 2023 ive wanted this for so long
This Russian guy should start a band.
You will surprised)
Slauther to previal
Honestly bro. That’s such a good idea.
@@babymanter0936Ah, yes. Slauther to Previal, my favorite Ruissian Dathcere band.
That actually sounded pretty bad ass. With Alex doing vocals, it sounds like a legit STP song.
Good shit 🤘
Alex is always a beast. When he passes gas it probably growls🤷♂️
Evgeny Novikov would do a bit more on the drums. There would definitely be some cymbal bell fills in empty spaces if he wrote drums for this.
Yeah Evgeny's cymbal work is phenomenal, he's very musical in his choices.
@@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead I think he's legit in the top 5 of metal drummers
@@laurenfazenbaker9777 I agree, he has the perfect balance of speed, groove, and special technical notes that catch your attention. He's probably one of the most balanced drummers in modern metal imo.
I played this on a Bluetooth speaker while gardening and luckily I had my big boy shovel because all of my dead pets started climbing out of the ground.
holy ffooookin sssccchhheeeets! that breakdown OMG, these ratatatas and dindindidins, my only gosh, this sounds more STP than STP sounds itself!
I knew it'd happen 🤘That demon lord vocal breakdown was scarewy 😳😂.
That’s the sickest track you’ve come up with! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Еееееебац как же это ахуенно🔥 Thanx, Nik!) It’s pretty awesome!) this song can be the nice bonus track for STP upcoming album 😌
that was absolutely insane good shit bro
The melody hits so hard, just fantastic.
Imagine Slaughter To Prevail starts palying this song at their concerts XD
Do you know what is a true miracle?, Alex using a shirt...
Phenomenal song as always...
Breakdown/ending is INSANE!!!
It would be sick if Slaughter to Prevail actually played this song live
Nik said they wanted it for the album so maybe?
@@m310grasstbh I just realized that lol
I'm sure they can since Alex Terrible has partial rights to the song
@@m310grasswhat the fuck?
I'm turning 50 in July and I have to say the past year I can't believe the evolution of death metal. I actually cried the first time I heard Alex. the Quality of music that one man can make in his room just blows my mind.
This is going straight to my gym mix.... damn it goes hard!!
Waiting for the video where y’all perform this together, live in concert
Alex’s vocals are just fucking brutal
А получилось даже хорошо, особенно интро с медведями
And it's also good that Alex often began to collaborate with many people like Mick Gordon, or Nick Nocturnal
Коллаборация с Миком Гордоном? 0_о схожу-ка погуглю
the breakdown actually made me say "holy shit" out loud while sitting in the room by myself. damn, good shit
Same here bro, I didn't expect it to be THAT good!!!! I lost my shit 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great work Nik, this song should be featured as a bonus track on STP's next album! I lost my shit during that epic breakdown! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
can you explain to me when did anyone say that this will be on stp's new album? If it's a bonus track then it's fine but otherwise it would be nuts to put it on the actual album
@@cile5459 I said it SHOULD BE featured on the next new album, I'm just making a suggestion, nobody made any kind of announcement lol.
@@BigHomieSteveTheMetalHead yeah i know what you said but i read a dozen comments and even galacticCriminal said that stp wanted the song for the album and i was like what the fuck
STP want this for their next album. Alex commented on it
@@MaliceOfRites do you have any proof like a video or something
Banger, added to my Spotify playlist!
What kinda Slav can't pronounce Evgeny? 🤣
I love you man.
Just saw you at the Electric Callboy show in Toronto dude! Epic guest appearance!
To the question: How should i name this band😅 the perfect choice in my opinion would be: Nocturnal Slaughter.
This was freakin awesome, i Hope you make more with Alex
Nik To Prevail
Slaughcturnal to Prevail
Congrats bro
Very cool
Getting recognized for your talents!
Imagine if Ollie sang on soul eternal, or vessel on worship 😮😮 how good having Alex on this one
My brothers, a few buddies of ours, and I just drove a few hours down to Tucson from Phoenix to see Slaughter!
It was *AWESOME*
Need a live version of this with the whole band
So good man. You both killed it, I’m speechless 🤘
I guess Nik is not gonna answer this but I'm curious if he'd be okay to let them perform it live, if the band and their fans like the song. Sick job dude, as always
I don't think he would mind, specially given that they wanted to put this on their album lmaoo
@@JCalebwait what
@@JCaleb THEY DID???
LETS GOOO been looking forward to this all week
First “Viking” then 2 “doom slayer” songs now this. Oh what a time it is to be a nik / Alex fans! 🤟🏻🔥
Outstanding, I'm so happy for you, it must be an honor as a core kid to have the beast singing your song. Keep it on N! Core kid 4 lif3
It sounds like an original Slaughter to prevail's song 😱😱🤟🤘
это да
That slapped, can’t like this enough! This made my night. Thank you!
I translated the song. Lots of references to how beautiful the seasons are, care bears, holiday foods, and romantic poetry....... my translation could be wrong though 🤔
Nah, that seems 100% legit 👌🏻
It's actually lyrics from "vot eto da!" by Vladimir Vysotsky. It was originally written for a movie, where a man, fearing nuclear war and other contemporary problems, does everything to secure a ticket to a "salvatorium" that would make him wake up 250 years later and avoid all of that, but has a dream where he wakes up to a devastated world, realises that the time skip won't solve anything and decides against it last moment. The lyrics are actually really beautiful, but I don't think there is a good way to translate them
Breakdown hits so fuckin hard dude
Oh... Vocalist so similar to Alex. Amazing cover band❤
Bro wtf that was dope !!!
When the breakdown hit I'm pretty sure every bone in my body shattered
THIS RIFF IS AWESOME!!! SO CATCHY!go on nick, more! I hit the subscrib button!
Alex screaming his air out always makes me smile :) and what a nice suprise this was
This is absolutely amazing 🔥🔥 and you trying to pronounce Evgeny`s name made me laugh so much 😂😂
