bro just created latin metal. Its really epic tho

[@louis_barras]

I wouldn't claim that but thank you haha !

[@vulcanicsix3111]

Pagan 1 and 2 by vitalism has a good Latin metal feel.

[@MartinezMaldonadoAlejandro]

True

[@MrFuckinTinkles]

@@vulcanicsix3111 came here to say this, not that he’s even the first

[@fullmetalguy8357]

I mentioned in another comment that the Canadian band First Fragment already blended flamenco and tech death.

When Animals as Leaders is hired for a Quinceañera

[@gabrielleyourmoder]

The perfect mix between latin and metal. Well done

[@louis_barras]

Thank you 🙏

[@priestgrease]

Can't wait to see a song with you and Charlie Robbins! I think it would sound beautiful

[@LucaVent0]

i love it! can wait for full songs!

[@louis_barras]

Thanks dude !

[@pamelaa4010]

It desnt feel like metal, but it is pretty - can't wait to hear full songs..... =)

[@louis_barras]

Thanks !

[@TheClarkCooper]

Ah yes, the Nuclear Power Trio experience!

[@souradippatra2772]

When are we going to get full songs

[@louis_barras]

Actually working on, probably this summer then

[@fullmetalguy8357]

Have you heard the band First Fragment? Tech death band from Canada. This is basically half of their sound.

[@louis_barras]

Yes I like First Fragment ! (I thought they were French haha)

[@fullmetalguy8357]

​@@louis_barrasThat's great! Your playing style makes a lot of sense ever since I heard them. The craziest, most mind-boggling mix of flamenco, neo-classical and death metal. So I would say this absolutely works in metal music.

[@breb1101]

I would listen to this daily. Enjoyed it very much!

[@louis_barras]

Thank you ! Glad you liked it 🙏

[@tarrabah5775]

Vitalism simularity is amazing

[@AaronW-GArt]

[@Weaslal]

i wouuld LOVE to see a song made out of this

[@louis_barras]

In project 👍

[@ethangcosby]

Sounds like a Wretched breakdown. Definitely metal af

[@tbones1979]

i hope you keep at it, man...this reality needs more individuals like you making art like this. Seems like there has been a drought for a while with guitar. There was like a burst in early 2000's like with real musicians not commercial repetition...Andy McKee comes to mind as one from that time period who was creating art.

[@louis_barras]

Thank you so much dude, it means a ton. Imo there is actually a lot of very talented and original guitarist at that time, they're just very dependant of social media algorithms and harder to find, but they exist.

[@tarinsaibot]

Santana vibes! I like it!

[@louis_barras]

Thank you !

[@helamanavalos9806]

I think metal is miss-concepted today, people is like: "It has distortion than its metal"

[@randumdude5824]

Distortion rockifies and metalizes all music. Man I love distortion!

[@peterschmitz1754]

La Polyphirita

[@t3djo448]

Reminds me of Charlie Robbins! I love it!

[@louis_barras]

Thanks !

[@lalotime]

Yeah its called The Voidz

[@xavisuarez49]

Tekken vibes fr

[@xz3r0k00lx]

Someone listens to Charlie Robbins? 😂

[@Khaynizzle7]

Metal influenced, but I think a lot of these blends are less metal and more of whatever genre they're blending in.

[@MrSporksen]

First thing I think of is progressive metal. Reminds me of this song by Neal Morse kzbin.info/www/bejne/d57SaoiHa9Obi68

[@louis_barras]

Good discovery, thank you

[@uhh6148]

No, you cannot.

[@P5ych00]

You friends with Charley Robbins or take lessons from him?

[@louis_barras]

Nope, I'm just a big fan and we both appreciate each other's stuff

[@hifive7366]

Fusion, not metal.

[@KsiazeIgor]

No. Who cares about labelling if it's great?

[@GonnaGetYouBoi]

Santana made a career on blending rock and latin music. This isnt metal in any sort of manner.

[@louis_barras]

That's the point, Santana is a rock band. Why would it be different when blending metal and latin music ?

[@AlexiCult]

Adding distortion to anything doesn't make it metal. Good playing, anyway :)

[@louis_barras]

Thanks !

[@stevevigilinc1244]

No

[@user-kk6nr5hu6o]

No.But it sounds great
