Obsidian C. visited my place and I decided to record him while he was playing some stuff. He's using my own guitar. In this clip he's playing Ascendant.
It really has to be something amazing have Obsidian as a friend who just pops in to play some of the KoK music xD Tell him, he's awesome on album or live alike. But he already knows it, I suppose ;o)
+MIR the "you can't compare two different styles" argument is weak at best...on one hand, I understand where people are coming from with that, but on the other, every guitar player is "different" soo.....
+Isan Simpson I don't think it's a weak argument at all. Art critics don't sit around debating who was the better painter between Rembrandt and Picasso; stylistically they're too far apart to warrant that discussion; likewise any comparison between Zakk and Obsidian C. Both are great guitarists doing their own thing and kicking ass at it, that's all that needs to be said.
@Morkagraven : Get your facts straight :) Obsidian C has been in KoK for as long as they've existed (since the early 90's), he is a live musician for Satyricon (he was at least, not sure if he still is). Satyricon consists of Satyr and Frost, anyone else is a live / session member :)
You know, the sound of your strings sounds cool together with the distortion in the back. It's like an acoustic guitar over a black metal chaos. Fucking awesome!! Maybe they'll make a song like that on some of the future albums? That would be awesome!! Cheers to you and Obsidian from Croatia!!
@b3nf1tzg3ra1d firts of all, kudos for not making this into yet another internet fight :) I started playing in -88 and have been playing on and off since, in all kinds of settings. What I meant to say was that if you put Steve Vai or Yngwie on this setup, it's not really going to sound much better than this. A good rig can't compensate crap playing, but there are certain points where a great player just can't make a rig sound good, as in this case of a $200 rig at bedroom level.
Please, ask Obsidian Claw to make even one tabulature of KoK song (with Guitar Pro 5 or other stuff or handwritten tab ;p). It's difficult to hear all notes.
lol when i wrote it i just meant the sound from my soon-to-be 15 year old stereo system which the sound is coming out from :) might as well remove it i guess.
Here is a link to a few great tabs on a few of their songs (including this one). Though not all the tabs for the songs but it should help you out! 911tabs.com/tabs/k/keep_of_kalessin/
That's what extreme metal need. REAL CHORDS!!

+maccas 55 Totally different styles, why even bother comparing?

His picking is so tight.
