Thanks for watching everybody! Which bands should I do next? Like the guitar tones? Check out STL Tones Amphub here: stlton.es/k

[@calebsunder]

Attila

[@lennartmittee5014]

Stone Sour :)

[@davibezerra5882]

In This Moment or Type O Negative

[@nikkmorse]

How about Metallica in the style of Amon Amarth, slayer, buckcherry, Steve vai, Jimi Hendrix 🤘🏼😈🤘🏼

[@schecterseven3894]

Avatar.

[@zaharya]

This would be fun in style of Avenged Sevenfold... oh wait.

[@AlexPhantom1292]

This means war XD

[@dillonmacpherson3350]

When I listen to this means war all I head is "candy shop" by 50cent

[@stronk9760]

Dillon MacPherson lmao brooooo someone should make that mashup

[@rafaelcarmo5562]

I see what you did there

[@Xsyara]

Shiiiieeeettttt xD

[@davenelson8592]

Why have you never done one of these with the ten second songs guy? Seems like an obvious pairing!

[@harcrof2887]

That would be PERFECT

[@zaharya]

And also make a whole song in one of the styles!

[@thethrashyone]

Me: "I hope the Megadeth one is done in the style of Holy Wars." Also me, at 4:21 : 😌🤘

[@nigel7779]

sounds like he heard megadeth once and thought "ok just add nerd shit"

[@kricorvo]

A friend of mine's father was the drummer for Bolt Thrower. It's awesome to see their style being referenced to this day! May he rest in peace. Martin Kearns!

[@jmustang2000]

You could have done it in the style of Avenged Sevenfold and just played This Means War. 😂😂

[@shaggymotionless4269]

That's what I thought lmao

[@uj5436]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@harcrof2887]

He also missed an opportunity with Psychosocial, playing in the style of Metallica (St Anger Era) and literally just played Frantic lololol

[@craftcrate6602]

Omg Orbit Culture I had 0 expectations for that It's great to see them getting more recognition their such an amazing band Btw they actually have their own Sad But True called Mirrorslave, Niklas said he wanted to make a song like SBT and he did

[@metallicatTim]

I just recently discovered OC and they are quickly becoming one of my fav bands! Unbelievable I'd never heard of them before... Anyway, when the OC part came on, I actually guessed In Flames (I like to guess wich bands he plays, fun game!), but was pleasantly surprised it was OC! Awesome!

[@fabiolopes2271]

Im the one who suggested it to get more people into it, they need to blow up ASAP. lml

[@rstango]

The spiritbox one sounds amazing!

[@mrgreenfr6216]

Of course : it's Spiritbox!

[@tarquinball]

lowkey sounds like holy roller 😂

[@COG_]

@@tarquinball that's what I thought :D

[@sunsetsmusic3792]

When Metallica plays there last show, they need the last song that they play to be "Hit The Lights".

[@JCDwyer]

I’m betting their last show was that drive-in thing.

[@masonmead9434]

JC Dwyer no way

[@JCDwyer]

Mason Mead dude I really hope you’re right. I just got some “over this” vibes at a lot of moments in that drive in film.

[@dl11]

Their*

[@justindenson5425]

I highly doubt the drive in show was the last. They'd likely do a farewell tour.

[@howlinhirshy8358]

1 riff 20 bands Beast and the Harlot a7x

[@loganblackfire7238]

Yes!

[@alexandrbarmakov3543]

How about asking other KZbin musicians play Your riff in Their style? I mean, there's bloody pandemic rolling through the streets, why not make a massive collaboration and all of them can post there perspective on this. We freaking love y'all, just help each other out and have massive fun...

[@skflwphgaawfas7402]

Lul, as if they would give a shit about some noones asking them to do sth, they've got a lot of both work and money to be bothered

[@DisturbedVette]

eblanator govna id do it

[@ttmcoffee6806]

Bolt Thrower and Megadeth were my favourites. As groovy as the original but each in a different way. Black Vail Bridges stands not far behind those though. Great job with all of them as usual :) I'd love to see Thank You Scientist in one of these someday ;)

[@s.n.8128]

Honestly, this feels so similar to repeating the same word over and over again, where it just loses all meaning. Man, this riff just goes further and further into the void of nothingness the more you listen haha.

[@Zelinecaa]

Still waiting for 1 riff 20 bands: Misirlou

[@brokeTM]

Do a one riff 20 bands for Tool - Vicarious As for bands to do any riff: Mushroomhead Fallujah Boris Bongzilla Unprocessed Fellsilent Extol Deftones Sybreed Minus The Bear Genghis Tron ...

[@MAXXX1195]

Am i the only one to try to do it like a blind test each time ? Next riff suggestion : Insomnium - Weather The Storm

[@jeepnut1]

Devin Townsend - The Hummer 🤣🤣🤣 I'm going to keep trying to get Extol in one of these. I also think Flogging Molly would be awesome. Alestorm got me thinking about Turisas. This is the series that keeps on giving!

[@mgrocki]

man, that tone is pure filth! love it! (PS - could've sworn Bolt Thrower was Pantera)

[@markcheetah4960]

I was gonna say Disturbed, lol

[@velizarzhelev6552]

Everything is pantera bro

[@JimCyanide]

I'm still waiting for the day where you use a gojira riff for one of these

[@getchumped]

definitely

[@thanesmashmontages412]

There have been several. Watch older videos

[@getchumped]

@@thanesmashmontages412 of course there have been older videos, but new riffs in the style is always appreciated

[@benparsons4979]

flying whales could be good

[@kennethhuber3133]

just hit the high open stings in between the phrase

[@santinoruiz4689]

3:00 This sounds like train of consequences by Megadeth.

[@bradponzar7733]

Square Hammer (Main Riff) In the style of: 1. Ghost 2. Metallica 3. Megadeth 4. Anthrax 5. Slayer 6. Static-X 7. Meshuggah 8. Death Decline 9. Korpiklaani 10. Soundgarden 11. Led Zeppelin 12. Motely Crue 13. Primus 14. Mr. Bungle 15. Deftones 16. The Offspring 17. The Smashing Pumpkins 18. Incubus 19. Limp Bizkit 20. Type O Negative

[@koffieverslaafde627]

Square hammer like the warmth - incubus tho

[@Javaisd3ad]

Square Hammer: South Park Style

[@gordontubbs]

The Obituary riff sounded like that could've been on St. Anger.

[@mortfinis]

Glad to see Orbit Culture is getting out there, such an amazing band!

[@Soloeagle54]

Wow, this was probably favorite one you've done by a long shot. So many good riffs. I really liked the Testament, Orbit Culture, and Shadow of Intent ones. I'd like to see Allegaeon make it in there one day

[@antoninastor4537]

please Tesseract

[@002nl]

Bolt Thrower and Testament were definitely my favorites. You should do more Animals As Leaders and Toska for the next time! Edit: I also digging the Shadow of Intent one, that was great!

[@wolvetica]

This would have been cool in the style of Alien weaponry

[@ShredMaster2010]

Lost it at the Willie Nelson head 🤣

[@guitaraholic83]

I wasn’t expecting that one at all. I liked it a lot!

[@ZethKeeper]

The Testament one could easily fit onto "Dark Roots Of The Earth" or "Brotherhood Of The Snake"! Great job, Pete!

[@nooralamgir3703]

Yes

[@cliffordpurk18]

Dude I love the fact you threw Bolt Thrower in there 😅 that's awesome! 🤘

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

Do one for Thunderstruck and have a Dance Gavin Dance, August Burns Red, Veil Of Maya, Phinehas, The Black Dahlia Murder, Erra, Rise Against, Norma Jean, Every Time I Die, Thrice, Crystal Lake, Chon, Four Year Strong, Silent Planet, The Ghost Inside, Soilwork, Ice Nine Kills, Pvris, Converge, and Counterparts versions of them lol.

[@VasKurtas]

Yeah, and I would add BTBAM and Protest The Hero

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

@@VasKurtas Yes sir!!

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

@@VasKurtas Just edited the comment to get it to 20 bands btw lol I'd add them in maybe next time but I do remember BTBAM was in once. I wanna see some other bands on it.

[@VasKurtas]

Well, he did some bands more than twice, so...

[@jasonlovesmusicreacting882]

@@VasKurtas Oh, I know. That's my point though, I think people are overkilling some of the same bands. Not so much BTBAM.

1 riff 20 bands, War Nerve by Pantera \m/

[@peiouribetxebarria3809]

Animals As Leaders?

Necrophagist's Seven but it's The Beatles.

[@albertkjrulff4414]

[@momiamalvada1967]

I was expecting this means war by A7X in one point hahaha amazing video as always!

[@KevinKoolx]

That Killers riff was great !

[@claudeman]

The Sultans of Swing main riff would be awesome to do. Also missed opportunity to play "This Means War" by Avenged Sevenfold lol

[@MrMapacheco]

[@sunsetsmusic3792]

Please do a chevelle song

[@asp3132]

1 riff 20 bands, Iron Maiden Powerslave. UP THE IRONS!

[@BozKiller]

Very very good. Testament, Rammstein, Obituary, Bolt Thrower, Ihsahn, CoB are spot on!!!

[@CacklingAntagonist]

You absolutely nailed the Rammstein version dude.

[@idiosyncraticmushroom3030]

do one in the style of Infest the Rats Nest era GIZZ!

[@jewelcheese]

Wouldn’t that just sound like Metallica?

[@lallomes]

Or even any other era would be cool to see

[@idiosyncraticmushroom3030]

Logan Allomes I would’ve done FMB but like...how would he pull that off?

[@CaynesDub]

Maybe in the style of Polygondwanaland.

[@idiosyncraticmushroom3030]

@@jewelcheese but better

[@Wind-nj5xz]

5:23 I thought it was Sunn O))) for a moment

[@DaddyPoobs]

You should try doing a riff in the style of Psychostick. They've got some awesome poppin' bass lines!

[@jalcmarek]

Awesome! :)

[@xklopan]

Kirks entering all of these into his phone as we speak lol

[@dcsolina]

Something in the style of August Burns Red, pretty please!

[@Tarquin21723]

Rammstein officially has to cover Sad but True now. That was too awesome.

[@trebmaster]

Did he ever do a Dropkick Murphy's one yet? Since we're dipping outside of metal now.

[@pereirasadikapositivo]

Que guitarra linda!!!

[@eskoriakiebraqeyo7942]

Toska style should be on this ones more often

[@Tach4nk4]

A riff in the style of Voivod would be neat

[@DeltaCanisM]

What about I see stars?

[@jaschul]

Please do Soundgarden's "Outshined" or "Spoonman" in 20 styles!

[@しょしょしょ-h3q]

HATESPHERE!

[@Yjhjty]

[@FunkyHonkyCDXX]

Really hope Sevendust makes it into this one of these days

[@pepsi3005]

We need a Pete Cottrell and 10SecondSong collaboration

[@jordanpantaleo554]

That was a funny nod to some of Devin Townsend's more obscure work.

[@farkid6193]

something in style of Electric Wizard

[@gusburton5358]

Homie listened to gravesinger and just wrote off of that lmao

[@laneswarts8873]

Walk don’t run In the style of The Acacia Strain Metallica KIllswitch Engage Slayer Led Zeppelin Duane Eddy Slipknot Mercyful Fate Lamb of God Machine Head Jamiroquai Bryan Adams Opeth Fear Factory Behemoth Hoobastank No Doubt Cheers :-)

[@807ftn]

I love that you did The Hummer! Your facial expression, your pose; everything was perfect! How about Rivers of Nihil next? Do you have a sax?

[@lildotanooby]

Jesse Pinkman after leaving Mr. White

[@SamuTheFrog]

The evanescence one was pretty rad sounding

[@theinfinityscout3289]

Spiritbox version was on point dude

[@LeeJoRo]

Some suggestions: Leprous Nevermore CABAL Vitriol The Prodigy

[@theliberation9061]

LEPROUS

[@RedboltMartyr]

Maybe style of Skid Row?

[@dannybass2398]

One of the best and heaviest riffs from Metallica imo just got even better. Awesome video as always man can't wait for the next one

[@danekirschner8450]

How about Cattle Decapitation?

[@JohnPaulHare]

Was not expecting BVB in there, but damn! Jake and Jinxx are extremely talented guitarists whose work I enjoy very much, despite the hate they get. It's dumb that they got written off by the haters for their first album, because everything since then has been great (although I couldn't get into Vale, since it isn't a style I normally would listen to). Their rerecording of We Stitch These Wounds is amazing, though, a testament to how much they've grown in ten years or so.

[@wallacesantos0]

I was expecting for "This Means War" the entire video. I'm disappointed

[@KawiMusician]

That Willie Nelson one was sick,lol

[@cloud1641]

Testament sounded amazing \m/

[@nexus6929]

Nice one! Motorhead next time!!

[@benios912]

Maybe, Nevermore next?

[@Max-The-Axe]

Megadeth version was better

i died when it got to the Devin Townsend part Can we see a song done like John 5?

[@yzettasmith4194]

Willie Nelson = awesome.

[@johniadanza5213]

That fuckin sure is their heaviest riff & it sounds great that was one of the riffs I used to jam on my squire through the 30watt Peavy anp I had...- with my best friend who is a drummer. Thankfully I had 2 distortion pedals to slap the gain up into the sky the riffs sounded great & then I'd just stop and hold the strings while soynds came out in a piercing wailof feedback

[@johniadanza5213]

Blackened is pretty sweet too, though & ONE is good shit to play with others

[@NamelessWolf]

Holy Satan, I love the Rammstein and Status Quo Part!

I don't want to be that guy but for Testament you really should've used Eric Petersen instead of Alex Skolnick. Great Obituary and Megadeth riffs btw!

Wow. That was amazing. Especially the children of bodom and Testament.
