Can we just all appreciate how Nik not only plays every cover he does flawlessly, but also absolutely nails the tone too? He definitely sets a high standard.

[@FairyCRat]

Yeah, he could basically replace JB for a show if they needed him to

Saw them live in 2009 when they toured Aus with Parkway Drive & Architects. Jake came out to a quiet crowd asking how we were doing, with no reply of cheers & then growled “I SAID HOW ARE YOU DOING” to which everyone lost their shit & I became an instant fan. Ahh memories of metalcore

Can we take a moment and appreciate the best sounding china cymbal in history? Of course besides the whole awesomeness of this video 💚

[@tim.noonan]

Best China stack too. That tight, swishy ‘twang’ is next-level. Matt Greiner might have my favorite sounding drum kit out there. Him or Blake from BTBAM.

Listened to the song every morning before fire academy to put me in a good mindset to get through it. Still gives me goosebumps every time I hear him scream “it seems like your giving up on everything you worked for”. Thank you ABR

[@med4699]

The best BD in my ears. Still undefeated

nick can't thank you enough for the tab- bar 110 should read (2) 16th notes then (1) 16th note. I believe 1 e ... + (just learning it but I think it matches the chug rhythm in bar 94). so funny this was posted in 2021. messengers never gets old. -nicky =)

[@joseamaya8331]

ABR have such of great riffs IMO. Nailed it, papa Nik!

[@bengreenbank]

I'm not even a huge fan of their music but they're an incredible band for learning guitar when it comes to metalcore/deathcore/death metal etc... once you've learnt the easy killswitch songs and unholy confessions then ABR have so many fun intermediate to early advanced songs to work through. You also don't need to own a 7 string and tune your guitar so low the action is fucked either.

[@NAH7Z]

one of the first metal songs that i learnt, wwhere i could play the whole thing without stopping. 😍
