Dude, Breaking Benjamin is so underrated by the metal community. They are like the mainstream gateway drug to the entire metal genre. And also, banging as ish!
@@benndarayta9156 Technically their post grunge. But a lot of post grunge bands were also alt metal as well. So you could say their both and be correct.
@Vincent Hippler same they where a step into the heavier styles for me also. I've moved into more of wage war, Gideon and others recently but a nice refresher for the pallette going back a few steps to something like this.
Bro, first 'End of Heartache', now 'So Cold?' Are you covertly going through my CD collection and covering my childhood? Kudos, dude. Hope you're having a good December.
My guy that’s how all of his cover videos are. Watch his video for You Only live Once by Suicide Silence or his cover of Through Struggle by As I lay Dying
@ Ryan Bollinger Why are you attempting to start an argument? You’re wrong anyway. Don’t do that to yourself. There are “djent” bands that fall under the prog metal category For instance. Just enjoy the content. Arguing is stupid and I don’t see why you want to start up with that crap.
Man... I used to listen to them in high school only during December and January for some reason, their music kinda corresponded with the cold weather outside and my foolish broken teenage heart. Thanks for this ❤️
I used to go to sleep listening to Breaking Ben in headphones every night. This album & Phobia on constant repeat. That would've been around 2011, right before my daughter was born. Hearing it reminds me so much of that time period 😥😔 Rest in Peace, angel. ❤️❤️❤️
@@JMPK23 no one's calling her alt-metal. She is alternative though; the label generally applies to indie, goth, emo and underground aesthetics and scenes
Just coming back two years later to say keep doing this. The way you took the time to match the sound and every single note is why I came here. My daughter would approve.
Love you man! Seriously, you have been my favorite guitarist youtuber for this year. Keep it up! I love how useful the covers are. Also the times you inject your funny side in each video makes it even better!!
Thank you so much for including the tab at the bottom. Not only is it visually cool, but it also helps me appreciate just how good the guitar part is on this song.
Lol 2022 and we're throwing this one in our set. There was a part i wanted to double check and make sure i was playing right. I'm late to the party too screw it good job dude
the last few days I have been looking for a decent cover of this song. it was a pity that none of the famous youtubers did a tab-cover of it. And then you download this masterpiece. It was lit as F🔥 Thank you so much! and hello from Russia🖤✨🇷🇺 BB Rules! Waiting for more BB covers🍀 последние несколько дней искал достойный кавер на эту песню. было обидно, что никто из известных ютуберов не сделал на неё кавер с табами. И тут ты загружаешь этот шедевр. спасибо большое! и привет из России🖤💜✨🇷🇺
This was the gateway song for me that got me into hard rock/alt metal and as an extension everything after it heavier or otherwise. It all started with the video of So Cold, was watching TV one day, one of those channels that shows music videos only, saw the video for it and it just hit me different, before that I mostly listened to pop and some rock, like 3 Doors Down type of stuff, and while all that is still good and nostalgic for me, this was my kind of music for sure, shortly after this I ended up getting into Dark New Day via "Brother" another classic for me, from there I learned their album Twelve Year Silence, ended up finding Sevendust, all that good stuff. Here we are years later with Periphery and Animals as Leaders and all this good and amazing music, but Breaking Benjamin will always be one of my favorite bands of all time.
I cant believe I forgot this song! I've been thinking of something to learn that I used to listen to often and the list is done but left this one out but I'll be playing it before I fall asleep tonight thank nik!
this song is a bop, now I wanna try to learn it, because it looks like you're playing it in drop C, which is one of my all time favorite tunings(a lot of Breaking Benjamin's other songs are in drop A#/drop B-)
Dude you are very talented. Every cover I have watched since I found your channel sounds just like the band playing the song. I hope your band becomes very successful too. It is also nice to see that you listen to softer metal as well because the same heavy music over and over again gets boring imo.
sorry if this has been asked before but in the verse part when going from 12th fret on 4th string to 12th fret on 3rd string are you like rolling the finger from 4th to 3rd string? I can't wrap my head around how to do that transition but you do it with ease
*That ending STILL smacks*
Loveuuuu
Breaking Benjamin still smacks. Their whole Ember album is great.
@@jackandcoffee1145 god that album is so good
13yo me would approve so much. 30yo me still does.
Please Nik react to Stain The Canvas : Like a God And Hell Made Me . UP PLEASE!!!!!!!! FOR HIM SEE THIS
Dude, Breaking Benjamin is so underrated by the metal community. They are like the mainstream gateway drug to the entire metal genre. And also, banging as ish!
Definitely my favorite band. 🖤
So true
Breaking Benjamin and Linkin park were my gateway to the metal community ☺️♥️ Absolute best decision for a 15 year old me to start listening to them
Are they metal or Rock? I'm kinda cofused
@@benndarayta9156 Technically their post grunge. But a lot of post grunge bands were also alt metal as well. So you could say their both and be correct.
2:29 I almost forgot how AMAZING this riff is.
I was gunna say the exact same thing dude.
I immediately remembered the riff when I read your comment without listening to the end
INCREDIBLE AF
0 3 5 ftw
as someone who plays this song regularly for friends, I cannot believe you forgot
I forgot just how much I used to enjoy Breaking Benjamin this reminded me
And now had to grab a guitar and go through it too
@Vincent Hippler same they where a step into the heavier styles for me also. I've moved into more of wage war, Gideon and others recently but a nice refresher for the pallette going back a few steps to something like this.
Same. I forgot how much I enjoyed this band.
Start any rock channel on Pandora, it’ll become like 60% Breaking Benjamin lol.
Love it
Bro, first 'End of Heartache', now 'So Cold?' Are you covertly going through my CD collection and covering my childhood?
Kudos, dude. Hope you're having a good December.
Lol me too dude! 36CF for life!!

Anyone else notice how much fun it looked the dude was having?
cuz the song is so much fun to play
The prog metal is sort of the rage these days but sometimes the most simple songs are the most FUN to play.
@@beastlybeast2716 Prog metal isn’t really the rage, Metalcore, Deathcore, and Djent is. Look at the most recent videos on his channel
My guy that’s how all of his cover videos are. Watch his video for You Only live Once by Suicide Silence or his cover of Through Struggle by As I lay Dying

I'm a simple man, i see Breaking Benjamin in the title and instantly click the like button
the riffs and chord progressions are so satisfying
Masterpiece
This was the first song I ever heard from them. They've been my favourite band ever since, and it's been almost 20 years!
At this point he's so quick every song released is actually a Nik Nocturnal cover
Except this song
Back when Alternative Metal meant something.
When it was still metal
What does it mean today?
@@xdman20005 go listen to poppy. Im being told thats alternative...
@@JMPK23
lmao

Fantastic, I was just beginning to learn how to play this song.
BB is the best! 🤘
There’s no sympathy for the dead by escape the fate!!! Killer solo on the song🔥
That and Suffocating Under Words of Sorrow by BFMF
Bullet ALL DAY
Just coming back two years later to say keep doing this. The way you took the time to match the sound and every single note is why I came here. My daughter would approve.
When you think winters day can't get any better 🙏
Because they’re...so cold lol
This was the first BB song i listened to, it holds a special spot in my heart
Love you man! Seriously, you have been my favorite guitarist youtuber for this year. Keep it up! I love how useful the covers are. Also the times you inject your funny side in each video makes it even better!!
These riffs and style keep me listening every day one of only 2 bands I've steady listened to for 17 years
Where are the "Oh I havent listened to the original song yet" comments?
Because everyone knows this song
@@robbiedozier2840 the joke you
Me honestly
@@tnsmmu3269 that drawing 🤣
The solo sounds beautiful on a acoustic electric as well
Damn the nostalgia! Song that got me into BB! My day has been made good sir!🤘🤘

Gave me chills again like the first time I heard the song so many years ago.
I watched his twitch stream when he was learning this. Lol he played the ending breakdown part like 12 times because he thought it was fun
the last few days I have been looking for a decent cover of this song. it was a pity that none of the famous youtubers did a tab-cover of it. And then you download this masterpiece. It was lit as F🔥

BB Rules!
Waiting for more BB covers🍀

One of my favorites by them! 2:28 lol
2:29 that stare had me laughing so hard lol 😆
Nik you're like 16 years late on this cover
mehh,, who cares
Lol
ITS NEVER TOO LATE FOR BB
Rock and Metal never get old dude
Nik covers songs either 2 seconds after they come out, or 2 decades-there's no in between
I've always loved this song.
Reminds me of those early 2008/09 days of UA-cam.
I’m also practicing this song on guitar and man this ending fucking hits hard.
One of the greatest buildups
So cold and so early :) first time I've ever been first
@@Velocity3 thank you :)
Breaking Benjamin is wicked. Thanks for an amazing cover. ❤️🎸
Breaking Benjamin was my first modern band as a kid, great to see it here. Thank you dude
I’ve been waiting so long for this

Still can't believe Gman could sing this so flawlessly!
Nik honestly deserves more subscribers.
This song is timeless. I never got sick of it; it's still as much of a banger now as it was when it was first released.
I listened to this song so much when I was younger. Still one of my favorites
nice, i wanna see more of breaking benjamin from you. i learn Diary of jane and Breath at the time
YOU ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT!
*god i love this song a lot.*
sick cover, Nik. \m/
My fav benjamin tune
Lol this is my fav BB song, and this is so awesome dude, keep it up 👍
Oooof the nostalgia... takes me back to my sophomore year in high school... good stuff...
This acoustic version was my absolute fav at one time in my life
I cant believe I forgot this song! I've been thinking of something to learn that I used to listen to often and the list is done but left this one out but I'll be playing it before I fall asleep tonight thank nik!
@@jakethedog3444 Even then at their core, they’re still a butt rock band. Even if this is probably their best song
So cold more like 37° F
What a classic!
Good job man. Love this song
Bro I'm def coming to your channel for more refined guitar covers like this. Absolutely fire!
also what's 3:25 lol
One of the first songs I learned to play in it's entirety about 14 years ago now.
Whew.
Te amo más por hacer esto ❤️
These remind me just how much i liked the bad radio hits of my era. This song slaps
Awesome as always
Bro you rocked the hell out of that! And thanks for the tabs. I've been playing the main riff wrong for years. Cheers
Been on a Breaking Benjamin binge lately, eh? Would love to see more covers for them, you killed this one obviously.
You deserve an award for that thumbnail
I love how happy he looked when he started the solo
this song is a bop, now I wanna try to learn it, because it looks like you're playing it in drop C, which is one of my all time favorite tunings(a lot of Breaking Benjamin's other songs are in drop A#/drop B-)
This song makes me wanna go to guitar center and play stairway to heaven..
I love little reminders like this that remind me this song still holds up \m/\m/
2:29
LMFAO!!!!!
Just an hour ago I listened all my fav songs from Breaking Benjamin! Thank U!
Amazing nik
Yo this is like one of my favorite songs to play!
Awesome! 👏🏻
The way you play it is so much easier than how I learned. Holy shit, why didn't I think of this before
I bet u even the guitarists of the band wouldn't have perfectly mastered this and here is Nik covering their song... 😂😂😂
I bet u they would considering it's their job to play it live... 😂😂😂
@@DaveScottBass They record the songs in parts. And it would take them some time to play the parts all together properly right??
he lived the song, it's amazing.
BROOOOOOOOOO this toooook me back man. Well done,
Drop C! I love that tuning bro, BB and BFMV are killin' it on this one 🤘🏻★🎸🎧⋆。°⋆
Best thumbnail ever so cold !!
Dude you are very talented. Every cover I have watched since I found your channel sounds just like the band playing the song. I hope your band becomes very successful too.
It is also nice to see that you listen to softer metal as well because the same heavy music over and over again gets boring imo.
Been waiting on learning this, i will wait no longer
i'm addicted to your guitar covers bro
Wow, didn´t expect that one. Always loved that song.
I just recently started getting into breaking Benjamin and he releases this, perfect 😈
the band i could listen to all day every day 🤘
sorry if this has been asked before but in the verse part when going from 12th fret on 4th string to 12th fret on 3rd string are you like rolling the finger from 4th to 3rd string? I can't wrap my head around how to do that transition but you do it with ease
Man I love breaking Benjamin! I’d love to see more covers of them!
I saw the streaming of this song it was amazing
I hope Nik is gonna react to Constance, definitely deserves a reaction
This is the fastest guitar cover I have evee seen
Only 16 years later!!
I was just learning and playing this song yesterday haha nice one mate!!! Maybe you can do Breakdown by them? It's heavy :D HAHA 3:25 XD
This album is timeless
Can't believe Nik needed 16 years to cover this.
I love his energy
Man you're just awesome! BB is one of my favorite bands and this is nostalgic 🤘🏼
Well, I haven't listened to the original song yet
And I never thought I would love this song.
Bro that solo was sick 🤘 awesome job as always man! Love that ernie ball!
Reminds me of those good old days, listening to Breaking Benjamin on my mp3 player. Nice cover too.
Breaking Benjamin ..yassss my fav band 😍🔥🤘🏼this is epic
Ah. I haven’t listened to Breaking Benjamin in a while. Great to see, especially just after a breakup oof.
The first Drop C song I ever learned to play, and a banger for all time. You play it a little different than how I learned, but sounds just the same.
