Top 10 YouTube Videos About Metal Music
Some videos are good because they are useful - they explain and demonstrate accurately certain things in metal music. Some of them are also funny.I've watched more vids of this type but forgot their titles and authors and now I can't find them.
There were good instructional vids among them.
In light of the recent discussions on what is metal and what is not, this video is very useful. Metal is often confused with punk.
Agreed. This is my favorite music video there.
It presents power metal features correctly, except the focus on DragonForce style (the song he wrote sounds like a DF song). My favorite part is when he talks about power metal drum beats - "boot camp, booty camp." The power metal vocals part is funny but he doesn't exaggerate. Vocals in this subgenre are really demanding.
This video is good. However, the problem was that I couldn't see the strumming.
Jared Dines is the vocalist for the deathcore band Dissimulator and drummer for two more bands.
Both Part 1 and 2 are very helpful. I once mentioned the difference between metal and punk. I knew nobody would believe me. But when I found this video, jackpot! All the things I said were exactly accurate. Charlie Parra del Riego has also made other helpful videos.
It was nice to see some good but underrated guitarists in this video, such as Timo Tolkki of Stratovarius and Jani of Sonata Arctica.
This video includes some other genres as well. Just give five minutes to this video. You'll learn about almost all the genres of metal, how metal songs are played, and the differences between them.
There's nothing funny here. Just a drum cam shows his drumming technique and how he achieves that crazy speed.
I believe it'll clear up some of the misunderstandings. Great video.
I recently found this. Remember when I said metal riffs are based on two or three strings? Well, you could call me wrong, but would you call Alex Skolnick wrong? (to the troll visitor).
Thanks for this video, zxm. I didn't know it and it's really very good - good quality, you can see everything, and I like Alex Skolnick. By the way, I didn't think you were wrong. Most of the time metal guitarists use 2-3 strings.
Thanks for adding this, zxm. I didn't know it, but I liked it very much. I was surprised he mentioned Gary Moore - a guitarist I like but who is very underrated and not well known.
This video is another good one.
I've seen this one at least twice. It's hilarious.
Insane fretless bass playing in a prog/technical death metal song. The bassist is Dominic "Forest" Lapointe. And he's left-handed.
