[@TheDORO1234]

One word "awesome"....

[@DanielTiecher]

Man, if I didnt knew from where this is coming from I'd say this is from a progressive rock band. The level of talent here is outstanding and the final result was amazing!

[@donmunkres8844]

Nita is freaking epic.

[@estefanilovatic4938]

Nita

[@timmysprogram8553]

Awe...tap,tap!!!

[@TINMANHOANG]

Please cover Hans Zimmer - Modern Warfare 2 - Gulag (Prison Assault).

[@3THEDAI]

here for ya Taylor xD

[@AlanGCarvajal]

I'd love to see some FFVIII re-created, this song kind of reminded me a little about it :)

[@user-hz9dl9tl5j]

God mode on!

[@mortses]

Nita!!!!

[@TheWhitePianoKeyProductions]

Love it :) I have one "request" though. When showing the drummer, it's always from behind a drum and from a low angle, but I think it would be cool to actually have more of a side or top view, actually seeing him "smash" the drums. Now the view you did here works on some occasions very good, like around 1:50, it looks awesome, but in the beginning I don't think it really fits, maybe it's just me. No idea, just though I'd share this :) (stupid limited characters for comments...)

[@ZetsubouNoNnoitra]

Great work and I would be really happy if you do a Metal Gear Solid cover :)

[@Commander_Cupcake]

you guys should do the original battlefield 1942 theme. would be awesome.

[@nathan9120]

you guys need to one winged angel !!!!!

[@cons-]

Nita ❤️

[@MichaelWWoods]

I should hope so.

[@EventHorizonPrdctns]

Maybe it's cuz I've never played the game/heard the song before, but the video is like 10 times more epic than the song itself.

[@DrFarhan]

Do the metal gear solid 2 theme as a group. you people would kill that..

[@markstarfish]

Wow,,

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

I don’t know what this is but it’s awesome that’s for sure. I think the guitar could be louder…… but I’m a guitarist 🤔

[@TheMephisto89]

Пилите, Шурочка, пилите)) Ah... I mean, you rock guys.

[@systemofadumb1]

Do I hear a little Avenged Sevenfold in there, whatever it is, it's awesome.

[@mateusdalton2088]

i thought it was just me

[@maxrav1831]

Is that the lead guitarist of the Iron Maidens? The song is actually very maiden sounding with it's melody and time changes so that would sort of make sense.

[@TheWhitePianoKeyProductions]

ow, I should have looked the the whole thing, at about 3:00 you did a good shot, you could see the drums. But that's like the only shot, I'd like to see more.
