You earned a new subscriber based on the first thirty seconds of this video alone... the rest of your lessons - holy hell - amazing!! Thanks for all you do!
Hmm. Unfortunately I am a typical female and incapable of growing substantial facial hair. Would gluing my pubes to my face work? Or should I start injecting testosterone to grow a real beard?
Walmart sells a good tape recorder with speaker and mic....I think the brand is onni or something. I'll check when I get home....you'll need 2 if you want 2 guitar tracks
Next question; Does that beard thing goes for us woman too? *i just obsessively started to imagined hairy beared black metal woman with electric guitars* 😂 hahaha
Great job, thanks for the tutorial it's helpful! :). I liked your thoughts on the structure too, not all BM has to be pure blast beats and minor chords!
I’ve got everything except for the facial hair... But I keep my high and tight fade from my marine corps days... it looks militant and tough... call it marine kvlt 😉
Dynamics? Talk about Panzer Division Marduk! 😁 I really enjoyed this video and I also liked a lot your approach to creating harmonies! The change of keys was also great! That's something I always kinda struggle with. The chorus sounds very nice, by the way
Ezeras Kroger death core is a different simpler sport. Its essentially metal roots with a few "woowaa" pitch slides and djent solos that BM or DM fans usually cringe at.
hey dude As an aspiring Black Metal Vocalist also bassist I'm very impressed with your song and video on how to create A Black Metal song I'm using a drum machine to record drum tracks as I've had trouble looking for drummers and my mates band does the same. you sir have given me confidence to work on my music even without A real drummer and shows you can work with programmed drums. thanks dude please do more videos like this. have a good day sir.
Simon, I absolutely love your videos! I wished I had started playing the guitar 20 years earlier. And - for teaching reasons - I wished you were a German somewhere in Germany, haha :-D Keep those videos going. They help a lot.
Too much music theory. Teloch would disapprove! Jk. Thanks for this tutorial- it inspires me just to go for it and be creative. I have a few ideas beyond my current abilities and it's been slowing me down!
How to write black metal 1. Grab your guitar and play 2. If you don't come up with black metal riffs then you shouldn't even try. Black metal should come from the heart and not be forced.
This whole video is really ridiculous because there is no "formula" to writing a black metal song, or really any extreme metal song. its not about technicalities its about conviction, and you cannot simply teach people conviction. it either has a boundless evil conviction or it doesnt, and certainly nothing youve written here does. one has to actually believe in what theyre doing, not just a WANT to do it
WOW! that was amazing i really like that.,i think that also we will also needs logic pro X to begin composing Black Metal music.Thanks always for your contribution.
As i can see in your videos about black metal, it seems like it it really easy. Got two questions: 1) Is it possible to play in D standard, tune down D-Step and E-Standard? 2) May i choose between those techniques? Foollish questions but i'm new to black metal
loved the minor stuff in the last half... it just gives that ominous feel with the perceived atonality. Half steps are really great too in all types of metal - it kind of trips up the mind which almost expects whole step movements, or symmetry, I guess on could say. I use that a lot with my doom metal writing, along with sliding into notes...
Mortiis said u don't have to be good at guitar to play black metal. He is def correct. But if you can't catch the right sort of mood required in your writing then it's hopeless
I followed your instruction and ended up with exactly the same song
lmao
Haha!!!
Hahahahahahah
Hahaha that was funny!
This made my day
black metal song
step 1. corpsepaint
step 2. tremolo pick and blast beat
step 3. satan
step 4. record your song with a toaster
that's about it
trve kvlt
Haha!!
hi xasthur
In the case of xasthur replace satan with suicide
Nerdy_Jr.2737 I
You dont need five fingers on left hand, Lord Lokhraed has only two
haha true
matej kudláčik I was looking for that comment xD
was about to post the same lol
true, he has only two kkk
Yeah just use d tuning that way you can do power chords, minor, sharps etc
My guitar lead is blue like a flower.
A poisonous flower.
Lol!
That whole insight into 2 guitar tracks and how they complement each other was quite eye opening. Thanks!
I agree, very helpful tip
The riffing actually reminds me of later Burzum albums (Belus for instance). Very nice!
High compliment indeed!!
Oh yeh!
You earned a new subscriber based on the first thirty seconds of this video alone... the rest of your lessons - holy hell - amazing!! Thanks for all you do!
Thanks buddy
Well, I have the internal darkness part down
\m/
I come up with my best black metal riffs after I stub my toe. Internal darkness engaged.
@@GoldCobra487 with me it's when i catch the tip o' my prong in the zip.
"Internal Darkness"
"Yes"
sounds too happy. needs more ear piercing distortion sound, more tremolo picking and more dissonance.
I would say it sounds like Post-Black or Blackgaze
Clearly not a fan of Lifelover.
ahjteam look up the ominous collective and on the channel there will be an artist by the name of Eg Hieter Shuckster, he is the best
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought "Hey, that sounds way too major-ey" to be Black Metal.
ahjteam ua-cam.com/video/yAmToJ0Jck4/v-deo.html
So for Old School BM you would just roll a bunch of dice and add that up to figure out the BPM :D
Yep!! :)
and play a round of DUNGEONS & DRAGONS at the same time.heh.
Yes
Hmm. Unfortunately I am a typical female and incapable of growing substantial facial hair. Would gluing my pubes to my face work? Or should I start injecting testosterone to grow a real beard?
Both will be fully acceptable!!
I love you, Simon - if I'm ever in your part of the world, I'm buying you a pint. :D
Cheers mate. It's a pint of red wine and rum!!
Still grinning at "Some form.... of beard..." But yes, totally necessary :O)
Reminds me a lot of Alcest or Amesoeurs, especially that chorus type riff. Really nice.
Thanks
exactly!!!!
bmfan Amesoeurs is amazing ! Reminds me of Drudkh too
For years I've been looking for a fisher price cassette recorder for my black metal.
Any advice on that?
siggitiggi ebay. I reckon you'll get one for under £5 on there!!
Walmart sells a good tape recorder with speaker and mic....I think the brand is onni or something. I'll check when I get home....you'll need 2 if you want 2 guitar tracks
4 track cassette recorder vintage
Does bass even exist in black metal?
Great lesson, I have written one riff so far and haven't made any progress as of yet
Keep going!!
That is all fine, but you would be more credible if you had black metal makeup during tutorial ;).
Maciej Winiarczyk "black metal makeup"
Corpse Paint
I would like to give this video and explanation in it a billion likes. That's precious.
Actually sounds more like an Atmospheric Black Metal
Name of the song from the Darkthrone riff
Your an awesome charecter xD from the intro alone
Next question; Does that beard thing goes for us woman too? *i just obsessively started to imagined hairy beared black metal woman with electric guitars* 😂 hahaha
that song sounds great but i think that wouldn't be black, it's more like post-black
He wants to keep the tr00 kvlt thing for his next Album...
Re4l pvr3 trve kvlt record their albums with acoustic guitars, playskool microphones and generic recording software not that bullshit he uses, sorry!
I like what he does... I couldn't care less if you consider it to be tr00 kvlt or not.
Maybe you have not realized that I'm being sarcastic?
isnt the big rule in black metal is to use all minor chords.....because he's using some major, which makes it more like melodic metal
sounds kinda alcesty
That's good enough for me!!
Shit, I'm a woman guess I can't play black metal cause I can't grow a beard ;-;
Been practicing the theory for a while and I've been getting a good fast picking technique down. Can't wait to start writing music soon.
I still use cassette recorders. ROCK ON man!
I think that's what Darkthrone used to do
Great job, thanks for the tutorial it's helpful! :). I liked your thoughts on the structure too, not all BM has to be pure blast beats and minor chords!
Thanks :)
Life hack: ask satan for good riffs
😂😂😂
I’ve got everything except for the facial hair...
But I keep my high and tight fade from my marine corps days... it looks militant and tough... call it marine kvlt 😉
Forgot to invoke our lord \m/
Good point. Sorry about that!! \m/
put some evil whispering vocals on that chorus....!!
by the way..THANK YOU! you are a GREAT teacher!! please don't stop!
Thanks Carlos mate!
hell yeah
Cheers!
A beard? That's only necessary if you don't have any hair on your head. If you have trve kvlt long hair (like I do), you don't need a beard^^
Seriously, mate - thanks for this - having a visual mapping really helps someone like to be able put things together. This is infinitely helpful.
Thanks Justin. Glad you found it useful mate
Dynamics? Talk about Panzer Division Marduk! 😁
I really enjoyed this video and I also liked a lot your approach to creating harmonies! The change of keys was also great! That's something I always kinda struggle with.
The chorus sounds very nice, by the way
Any suggestions for learning to hold the chords?
I'm scared hold me.
Lol
You need long hair and a makeup as well.
Love your videos man! Good content and a healthy dose of humour, can you do a tutorial for Doom Metal/Stoner Rock sometime please? Cheers!
he did..
Where? Can't see one in his vids, only a few individual track tutorials?
Thank you in advance!
Nevermind I misunderstood your comment sorry, thought you wanted song lessons
Rayene Boussetta no worries!
i expected black for trve darkness
It would be awesome if you do one on deathmetal or deathcore :)
Good shout!
Ezeras Kroger death core is a different simpler sport. Its essentially metal roots with a few "woowaa" pitch slides and djent solos that BM or DM fans usually cringe at.
You do know that deathcore is more than just Suicide Silence right? Go listen to stuff like Despised Icon and tell me again how simpler it is
@@joshjohnson3938 Try Infant Annihilator and see if that's simple.
Why not a black guitar
hey dude As an aspiring Black Metal Vocalist also bassist I'm very impressed with your song and video on how to create A Black Metal song I'm using a drum machine to record drum tracks as I've had trouble looking for drummers and my mates band does the same. you sir have given me confidence to work on my music even without A real drummer and shows you can work with programmed drums. thanks dude please do more videos like this. have a good day sir.
Cheers John mate. Hope the Black Metal project goes well.
Cheers dude I'm due to have my mate help with drums and distortion this month for some material I've written. keep up the great videos too
You, sir, look a bit like Dave Hunt from Anaal Nathrakh :>
for vocals: just eat 5 of the hottest tacos you can find and place a mic in your restroom😅
Epic
Sounds like Woods of Desolation, one of my favorite black metal bands.
High praise indeed
Genetics didnt favor me in the beard department. Can I still be metal? Lol
80% metal. 20% Boy Band.
do you record the guitar parts in 1 take or do you record them in sections and put them together?
When writing, I record them in separate takes, but when recording properly I'd play them in one take.
Simon, I absolutely love your videos! I wished I had started playing the guitar 20 years earlier. And - for teaching reasons - I wished you were a German somewhere in Germany, haha :-D Keep those videos going. They help a lot.
Thanks mate!!
Whats that pick?
DRAGON'S HEART.they'll run ya around $12 USD online if yer interested.all the best.
Gay Metal w/ Burzblack Progression!! (That's really fucking cool, dude!! I'm like it!!)
Why everyone play simple melody??? Nobody play Black Metal in Abbath's style?!?!?!
Imo, the best part of this clip is from 17:58... that sounds more like bm than the other stuff. Kinda reminds me about Burzum in a way ;)
Too much music theory. Teloch would disapprove!
Jk. Thanks for this tutorial- it inspires me just to go for it and be creative. I have a few ideas beyond my current abilities and it's been slowing me down!
Goddamnit, blast beat in triplet-feel and this would be so black metal
This is the best black metal tutorial that I've never seen, I follow you from Latinamerica.
How to write black metal
1. Grab your guitar and play
2. If you don't come up with black metal riffs then you shouldn't even try. Black metal should come from the heart and not be forced.
Väiski123 exactly!!
Black metal is straight from the soul...
You did a baby black metal.. that was not KVLT, should listen and inspire from Dark funeral or immortal, abbath,....
This whole video is really ridiculous because there is no "formula" to writing a black metal song, or really any extreme metal song. its not about technicalities its about conviction, and you cannot simply teach people conviction. it either has a boundless evil conviction or it doesnt, and certainly nothing youve written here does. one has to actually believe in what theyre doing, not just a WANT to do it
Lmao. That chorus though. Jesus. This isn’t black metal at all... wtf.
the last riff was the best
Hola paso por a qui para encontrar una migos
Thanks mate
Andres Larenas wat
kind of has a style similar to wolves in the throne room
U need Drop D and one finger on left hand
He's pure musical evil but his voice sounds so nice and relaxing
WOW! that was amazing i really like that.,i think that also we will also needs logic pro X to begin composing Black Metal music.Thanks always for your contribution.
As i can see in your videos about black metal, it seems like it it really easy.
Got two questions:
1) Is it possible to play in D standard, tune down D-Step and E-Standard?
2) May i choose between those techniques?
Foollish questions but i'm new to black metal
D standard, or GTFO.
Thank you this was immensely helpful! will you be uploading more kyteler song tutorials?
Did one last night :)
you don't need fucking cadences and shit for black metal
Where is the double bass ? No speed at all ? Your riffs sound like Def Leppard lol
Reminds me of Peste Noire! Great video as always.
Now this was a needed video. Great job!
weird he hasn't already done this before, he did do black metal technique videos though
It only came to me last night that I hadn't done this video and thought it needed to be done! Cheers Rayene! Cheers Morgoth.
sounds like 90's dance. (a good thing imho). No valley too deep no mountain too high...
Peace sells but who's buying.?👎
loved the minor stuff in the last half... it just gives that ominous feel with the perceived atonality. Half steps are really great too in all types of metal - it kind of trips up the mind which almost expects whole step movements, or symmetry, I guess on could say. I use that a lot with my doom metal writing, along with sliding into notes...
Awesome 🤘🖤👍
Something with a beard...
Ah shit.
So you don't have to be black? I thought it was like those MOBO awards music or something.
...(i kid, i kid!)
Haha!!
why does it sound so happy tho?????????????????
''10 FINGERS'' Poor lord lokhraed
Got everything but the beard, god damn it.
My beard won't grow ever but I love BM. What now? :(
I don't know why this is actually funny
black metal song more like pleb metal song
reminds me to amesoeurs ruines humanities
Mortiis said u don't have to be good at guitar to play black metal. He is def correct. But if you can't catch the right sort of mood required in your writing then it's hopeless
You also need hair don't y..
Great vid Simon very helpful as usual :)
Thanks buddy
i love writing wonderwall
If u want to do the title, do not watch this video.
I dont even play guitar but I'm watching this
4:00 it reminds me one of the harakiri songs and the tone is perfectly theirs :D damm
how do you like the dragon picks? looks intersting but something like gravity picks seem a bit more standard. i cant choose
They're great. Chicken Picks Shredders are my favourite though
This is the best BM tutorial ever seen...tnx my man
Not bad as it progresses.
i need something happen..
thanks it's about time!!
