AFTER THE BURIAL - Berzerker

[@Indi]

This is one of those songs I hear years later as a musician, and I still don't understand how this was composed.. imma say magic, 🙄 R.I.P. Justin Lowe..

[@joelvela6996]

The guitar in this is pure magic

[@SuperEvan1985]

I agree. Who comes to band practice with any of these riffs like "came up with this last night..." Absolute savages. That's who

[@HowardJonesOfficial]

He just wasn't like the rest.

[@MarijuanaApocalypse]

​@SuperEvan1985 hahahahahaha these guys did hahaha

[@Webesmackinbass]

Named my paintball team off this song. Still going today 10 years later

[@sacredxgeometry]

RIP my man Justin. Sad that nobody is talking about your struggles today...your story is still important and your music is still kickass. ♡

[@Hoooray4Kade]

That last breakdown gives me epic goosebumps every single time.

[@brandontadday6288]

Man that bass tone, those tempo changes, those grooves. So much awesome!

[@nickscorpion8725]

R.I.P. Justin Lowe

[@EliPorterMahn]

Huge loss to the music community. I'm still in denial at times.

[@hunkwasbisyan007]

Justin Lowe and Paul Gray are the examples of the term, "Silent Talent".

[@jshaw1503]

CrashBandit glad I got to see him play live... sucks man

[@puerto77]

Amen

[@jakesanders8795]

This video format is pure nostalgia

[@Sebasheck]

I love playing this in the early morning on max volume.

[@calebszyszkiewicz719]

love this still a decade later

[@ForMeitsOnlyOASIS]

The replay value is so high, holy shit. This is like my 8th listen rn.

[@deadasfboi]

J Jo just heard this song live haha. it was pretty good

[@koltkovers9962]

"it was pretty good".... BOI

[@rebelliousivoronix1811]

J Jo RIP Justin Lowe

[@slayerficated]

This is like my 800th for the album

[@Thijscube]

This song was on my number one in the Spotify most played list in 2019. Must have been a few hundred times.

[@Vladnight28]

Guitar work from another dimension! What a masterpiece!!

[@richardreney2846]

That breakdown hits so hard :')

[@DylNyeTheDrummerGuy]

Which one? Haha

[@xxxjakexxx54]

He means the obvious one at like 1:40 that truly is sick as fuck

[@INHERENT.]

Best part: 00:00 to 5:40

[@ChilisauLP]

what about the last second?

[@INHERENT.]

00:00 - 5:41* ^^"

[@KingChevy7]

+ChiliLP Fuck the last second

[@imabigpotato3249]

+KingChevy7 thats my favorite part 😠

[@adrianamorphous]

what an original comment

[@mandalorian29]

Literally the best song intro I've ever heard.

[@mexitalican99]

I can hardly stay on the road when I'm bumping these guys

[@ladismn217]

RIP Justin :( truly a talented guy and also really nice. Shred in peace bro

[@rebelliousivoronix1811]

ladismn217 Justin Lowe will be missed

[@viscountrainbows2857]

He was a really sweet dude. Rest In Shred 🎸

[@nardtardzTV]

Thank you Sumerian Records being as conscious of a label as you guys are . Signing real musicians who play real music about things that matter in this world . 3rd eye sharp guys .

[@Celestial_Being666]

2:55 - 3:07 such a groovy breakdown 🔥 masterpiece 🤘🏽

[@joelvela6996]

2:15 That is one of the best guitar solos in metal history!

[@facuwind4758]

? XDD

[@taylorkelly2585]

Who still out here repping the bois? Just saw them live last week and holy shit they still bring the beef

[@jordanjonz]

Just saw the show in Minneapolis, and you're 100% right! The whole lineup was killer I thought

[@valentingomez4546]

10/10 would re-play it again 100 times

[@carlmarker9257]

in these days sumerian led the scene

[@ccruz3]

they still have a fat roster

[@timmt2884]

As soon as the new ATB and Born of Osiris albums drop this year/early next, then Sumerian will again reign :D

[@DylNyeTheDrummerGuy]

@@timmt2884 that new BOO is alright imo. I miss the discovery and tomorrow we die alive. Stoked on the new ATB tho, that new single Behold The Crown slaps

[@Yousuck00]

ATB, BoO, Veil of Maya and Periphery... the legendary lineup.

[@travis8106]

oh yeah boi

[@antoniopizano9414]

This was THE guitar song back in the the day

[@joemusolf]

Rest in peace Justin. You made Minnesota proud.

[@mattsmith7123]

they shred like crazy but still use logical phrasing, I've played with tons of guitarists that don't comprehend consistent phrasing.

[@JoeZarx]

Yes, exactly. I feel the same way...

[@v0t3f0rPeDr0]

+Joe Slinkard Serious question, what do you guys mean by that?

[@mylifeatscho0l]

+pedor h they're gods and their songs are good

[@mylifeatscho0l]

+Mason Andrew all of them

[@marcusaschenbrenner3126]

3.30 titties and ass shaking riff

[@kixlepixel]

What I love about this song is that the majority of it is played on 6 strings, just in Eb Standard, and even those sections are fucking brutal. After The Burial prove you don't need downtunings to be heavy, just use them as emphasis.

[@drumstothemax7877]

Then fast forward 5 years and he is using a 9 string in low C# hahaha

[@Marksman5147]

+DrumsToTheMax lmaoo so true

[@metalsnake7074]

8 string u stupid fuckboi

[@tjyjmusic]

One of my top ten songs ever

[@NinjaChoke]

1 minute in and i feel like listened an album, underrated composition

[@mariotorres5133]

This song lives in me.

[@joelvela6996]

I saw them live in 2015 when I was a senior in high school, honestly a day to remember.

[@TrealFOET]

I havent listened to them in years and im about to see them tomorrow with knocked loose.. this is the after the burial that i remember i hope they play some of their older shit like this lol

[@El.Sasquatcho69]

They still dude I want to see them live so bad. The new stuff just don't compare but as a guitarist I can't imagine playing this song live ouch

[@madkins77765]

The Heaviest breakdown of all Time!!! No negotiations!!

[@manuelsotelo4242]

there are even better one and even on that album they have at least one better. still one of the best in history. 27.1.16 I finally see them live again. my prayers were heard

[@brandonkinzer804]

Idk bout that m8

[@DraculaXHunter101]

Still shocked that this song was in Saints Row 3, Man that game had some badass fucking music. Marilyn Manson, Deftones, Amon Amarth, BTBAM, Miss May I, Job for a Cowboy, Dillinger Escape Plan, Black Dahlia Murder & The Dear Hunter. Gotta thank that game so much.

[@AusarisTV]

DraculaXHunter101 don't forget Shai Hulud and Devin Townsend

[@HuntersReject97]

DraculaXHunter101 dont forget black veil brides

[@DraculaXHunter101]

LOOOL, No.

[@HEDBNGR]

I agree, saints row 3's soundtrack or at least the metal tracks on it were fucking badass

[@koltkovers9962]

saints row got me into tyler from yonkers

[@matteopriotto5131]

Saw them live yesterday, this song is just perfect

[@kristennification]

I remember the days when I had dialup...Of course it was slow as shit and every song I wanted to hear on YT took about 15 or 20 min to load up. This was the best I had at the time and I also came from a small town of 800 people in Oklahoma. So discovering new music was something I had to use the internet for. So before school (junior high) I would open up probably 20 tabs each with a different song on KZbin. I remember as SOON as I got home I would drop my bag on the floor and run into the office room to listen to what I had loaded up. That and Limewire was how I discovered new shit. And Berzerker by ATB was one of them and I was hooked ever since as they got me into metalcore. I know I sounded like one of the cool kids lmao

[@dylanp30]

Saw these guys preform this song at Port City Music Hall in Portland, Maine in early 2012. Best show ever! They came with Within The Ruins, Last Chance To Reason (a local but very talented progressive metal band) The Plot In You, Miss May I, and with Whitechapel headlining. Such a fucking brutalll showwwwww.

[@matthewtE]

Learned this on guitar, now I'm learning to play it on mandolin!

[@joelvela6996]

Upload a video !

[@despizedicon]

From the first time I heard this a decade ago... Bad ass top tier shit. RIP Justin Lowe.

[@xMaLigNancY]

Conducting from the Grave sound-ish! i love it!

[@macedamiachocolate]

dude are we related!? lol

[@xMaLigNancY]

maybe! ahhaha

[@bmw3-er]

Found this one and them in saints row a decade ago. Thanks saints row, you introduced me to this masterpiece.

[@davydoom]

Wtf I didnt know that. Hell yeah

[@AllanHathaway]

Okay, Ian. Thank you for that. I would of never known if it weren't for your supreme knowledge in such things. You're an inspiration to us all.

[@addictivetackleco]

These guys are the reason why I play low tunings. They were my best friends favorite band. He past away at 15 by self induced alcohol poisoning non accident. He had mental issues. This is my friends anthem.

[@El.Sasquatcho69]

One of those original bands to use 8 strings. Here I am as a later musician was asking another guitarist if he could play after the burial on a 7 string 😅

[@Kisakuso]

So glad I found out about this band with this song. Probably wouldn't have digged more into it if it would've been one of the last album. ^^'

[@mikehurt3290]

I saw them live and this song sounds just as amazing live as the studio version which is rare it blown me away

[@dalynbratcher9888]

Rare..like..rareform..heh..get it.

[@TryHardThread]

I love the vocals

[@TifffanyTaylor]

Yo that breakdown hits stupid so many years later. AND THAT TWO STEP? Dooooooooooood😁😆

[@alexiluffy216]

i tried two stepping to it but it's too fast lmao!

[@TifffanyTaylor]

You're not two stepping at the right time, they slow it down for you, it's later in the song where it gets all bendy and bouncy. 2:50

[@alexiluffy216]

that's.. too slow i think? the perfect BPM to two step is 3:53 off Attack Attack's Smokahontas (music video), or 1:48 of Parkway Drive's Gimme A D. or am i two stepping wrongly lol! @@TifffanyTaylor

[@TifffanyTaylor]

@alexiluffy216 seen em live so many times in Georgia & Alabama & unanimously, everybody that moshed at all started 2 stepping. All the other stuff is way too fast or is just a full on breakdown.

[@alexiluffy216]

sounds like a vibe! if everyone decides it's a two step fest then it's a two step fest :D@@TifffanyTaylor

[@KCVRTV]

I would run to this album and it always kept me so energized.

[@coleozaeta6344]

Shoutout for the lyrics to read along to

[@kingplutoxiao1]

I heard this in Saints Row: The Third on my ps3(thanks PSN PLUS :D!). Its nice to see these guys growing.

[@supermike980]

A deathcore masterpiece.

[@LawDescendant]

Saw these guys open a show for AILD and they honestly made them look terrible. They had the crowd going insane, it was the best concert of my life and the lead guitarist flex was so stylish he reminded me of Van Halen with his swagger and ease of play.

[@KCVRTV]

I think the beauty of this song is its called Berzerker but it is so well arranged. Beautiful chaos.

[@naomiv.3952]

This is some beautiful music right here!

[@joshuatavarez500]

i first started listening to after the burial when my friend put this song while playing Doom ever since then i cant stop listening to them i need to get another drum set i would love to learn to play these songs

[@Allstin]

Does this friend still play DOOM??

[@SolXIX]

I couldn't agree more, funnily enough, I saw these guys supporting BoO in london, not a single hardcore dancer, pure moshing, it was great.

[@jshillkiller2262]

Best song ever written..well metal wise..right now

[@reignzmane]

That's beautiful man

[@SolXIX]

Yeah, they were flawless as well, chris and nick were great fill ins

[@chaosz80]

love the groove and how it breaks the classical theme 2:16 - 3:25

[@johnnyv5812]

Listen, I love ATB but I just wish their new songs had this type of song structure. Love the riffs on riffs on riffs.

Accidently just listen to the old version... thank god anthony is here now

Im hearing a lot of as i lay dying and born of osiris influence, then a heavy chelsea grin sounding breakdown with guitar melodies that remind me of a more technical bullet for my valentine. Great fucking song \m/

[@alexiluffy216]

I just realized all the riffs here are harmonized wtf! (well except the chuggy parts!)

[@gardenprogeny1141]

you should check out the band called Death if that's something you're into; they used a decent amount of fifths iirc. it's old school death metal.

[@bezerker99]

Someone said they found a song for me. They were not wrong!

[@kupuskacahouse]

I learned the intro to this song once I learn the whole song it's over for you all on the positive note thanks to ATB I've never been practicing guitar more than I am now

[@mixedminds2]

These guys are the fate of Metal. In a scene of generic breakdowns, a scene where bands are slammed into a genre, and where it is hard to stay relevant. This band does it all they take almost every genre of metal and make it their own and personalize it to make beautiful intense blood boiling pissed off music. Thank you After the Burial.

[@polostone8876]

it's got to be one of the most annoying shit ever. sad thing is that we will never get rid of such useless debates :(

[@Marksman5147]

+Polo Stone Theres no such thing as a genre debate. Genres are purely factual, you either know it or don't, the only room to debate is as new genres are formed. such as is slamdown a type of metal? or hardcore?

[@dieselsal9440]

yeah, like really just listen to the song

[@TheMrlittletooth]

They forget that you could be more than one.
