Castevet - The Curve [guitar cover]

[@AzenBerries]

The chords, harmony, creativity and atmosphere from the album was so good it's my favorite

[@Avel_runner]

If I wanna listen to new good stuff, I just look for Oleg's newest video and start listening to the band. 100% chance I'll like the band. Love to see your work, man!

[@noobsauce]

Happy to spread the joys of weird riffs!

[@psychosis8429]

Never heard this band before but this band sounds really good. Also, fantastic playing as always and thank you for showing me a new band to listen to

[@RX120D]

Dan showed me this track one night at like three in the morning after listening to DSO's Chaining the Katechon. I totally forgot about it until now. Thanks for reminding me of this crazy record.

[@The_Dusk_Sage]

I really miss this band, great cover man

[@hollowroots2197]

Please learn every Castevet song. These chords and structures are amazing. Inspirational...you're playing as well.

[@valentinemcleod]

My favorite song from this band. good choice my friend.

[@valentinemcleod]

I've always loved this song since I first heard Castevet, it's still my favorite of there's. Nice to see a cover of this song.

[@givemeajackson]

wanted to say thank you not only for your videos (you being a lefty makes figuring out how stuff is played even easier imo), but also just for introducing me to so much good music. you have one of the nicest tastes in metal i have ever seen, pretty much any band you cover becomes an instant favourite for me.

[@noobsauce]

Thanks so much! Very glad to share the love of amazing bands alongside these covers

[@mk13ultra4th]

Dude, your covers are introducing me to so many cool new bands! Thanks! And sick skills as always. Bring the Brain to Switzerland!

[@noobsauce]

I would love to come to Switzerland! Hopefully someday soon.

[@stevenglasl1443]

This is awesome!!! I just heard these guys not too long ago for the first time. Seeing this is great.

[@allofthemmilkingwithgreenf7493]

Love that Plebeian Grandstand shirt, dude! Great cover too!

[@stevesullivan8405]

Killer as usual. Love watching you navigate this. And your fashion choices never fail to disappoint. You were a Pleb 5 years ago? Well shucks

[@noobsauce]

This was def some of the most fun ear training I've done. And Plebeian is such a joy, they are completely singular

[@ivan.grishin6842]

Всегда жду твоих каверов. Порадовал как всегда.

[@mazlothveshiriah1528]

it's great! I will try to name several groups that are clearly worthy of your attention. this is probably Zhrine, Medico Peste, Convulsing and... Portal of course

[@noobsauce]

I love Zhrine and Convulsing! I never got into Portal, and I'll have to check out Medico Peste. Thanks for the reccs!

[@thedeathmachine666]

awesome as usual , I like learning these songs just to pick up new chord ideas. love pleb grandstand haha their last album is insane.

[@osmark86]

Great cover man! This album is so incredible

[@MaddyPup19450]

Awesome! I love this band. Any chance of doing a Krallice cover?

[@EmptyTenementSpirit]

Lord, this band sounds fucking cool. I never heard of them before, thanks for introducing me to them. Some absolutely crushing chords and riffs here. Mmm.

[@zerilis]

I just noticed you put the tab in the description, #blessed.

[@raytsh]

Wow, these chords are crazy! Great cover!

[@buddy.boyo88]

nice !

[@SurrealisticMadness]

Great band and fantastic cover as always. Such a majestic track though would love to see you do Grey Matter from Mounds love that track.

[@crapcannon86]

so sad they aren't around anymore :(

[@robsinHL]

Great fucking job, really brought it home.

[@MrHikkikomori]

Would you consider doing some Dodecahedron? They put out their new album just recently and its really good.

[@isaaczaladar1174]

MrHikkikomori amazing album

[@noobsauce]

Yeah, I've been thinking about doing some Dodecahedron! Still need to listen to the new album. I would probably cover I, Chronocrator, seeing as it's the riffiest of their songs.

[@EmptyTenementSpirit]

New Dodecahedron is absolutely demonic. I, Chronocrator would be cool to see covered.

[@milanimilani]

Very cool. When???

[@noobsauce]

my schedule is chaotic, i cant give a definitive answer :(

[@endlessduck1642]

Have you considered covering anything new from Ulcerate? Like Yield to Naught or Vermis, love those songs!

[@noobsauce]

I've thought about doing Vermis, haven't gotten around to figuring it out. Non-guitar life has left me with less and less time

[@endlessduck1642]

I hope you'll find some time ! Love your covers, got to know alot of bands i now love!

[@noobsauce]

Thanks so much! glad to spread dat knowledge

[@Pablo_25593]

I've been recently following your vids and I love them, helped me discover awesome bands. Any chance of making an Inquisition cover?

[@noobsauce]

Thanks! I've never really listened to Inquisition much. If I hop on that and start getting songs stuck in my head on repeat, I'll cover something.

[@Avel_runner]

We miss you Oleg!

[@mellowcorpsep6665]

thought it was gonna be a cover of the band that made Summer Fences but this is sick too

[@BadassBrutusGuitar]

Cool mister Zalman...! Very 'eavy ;-)

[@isaaczaladar1174]

amazing as always(dat plebeian grandstand shirt)have you heard a band called coma cluster void???

[@noobsauce]

Thanks! I've listened to a few tracks here and there, but their music never really grabbed me. I've been in a very stubborn musical mood for the past 2 years...mostly listening to angry, disgusting black metal. and Virus. lots of Virus. For some reason, not much else seems to hit the spot.

[@isaaczaladar1174]

Oleg Zalman i think is the closes band to match ulcerate apocalyptic feel their album mind cemeteries is mind blogging!!!!!!is unbelievable

[@EmptyTenementSpirit]

Virus is fucking wonderful. Ever since I got into Ved Buens Ende whenever Written in Water's gets too repetitive for me I just listen to it. I've mostly been listening to Abyssal this week, G.D.C himself gave me some tabs to try and learn yesterday, having a lot of fun with it.

[@EmptyTenementSpirit]

I'm kidding, Written in Waters is perfection, but so is Virus.

[@dis.infectant]

Oleg Zalman If you dig Virus then you'll love Yurei. It's somehow related to Virus. Just as tangly, with more hooks. There's more on YT... kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXyTqYyQZah7oK8

[@eugenetkachev]

Plebeian Grandstand T-shirt double like!

[@jesuscontreras124]

Amazing as usual Oleg. Do you work by comission? if so, how much would it be for Ulcerate's "Chasm of Fire" tabs?

[@noobsauce]

Thank you! No work by commission, I don't have the free time, unfortunately. Give your ear a chance :)

[@abuchwald87]

👍

[@SadisticKillerXx]

AMAZING! Man, check out the band Chaos Motion, their riffs are weird af haha

[@stringfinity]

Heavy stuff :-D

[@omanousmacrospool4835]

Hey man! I typed you name on Google and found your Instagram and saw you playing some Vi. That was sick! What tuning was that in? Looked like there were lots of 'big' chords going on, almost reminded me a bit of Castevet!

[@noobsauce]

Yes! I find both bands to be very similar, especially when it comes to the guitar parts. VI stuff is tuned to drop D, just like Castevet. Both bands are still in constant rotation for me, just constant eargasms.

[@omanousmacrospool4835]

@@noobsauce Thanks! I like how they use giant chords in drop tunings to get two voices moving around on one guitar. There are probably more bands that use this though I can't think or more now. Maybe The Clearing Path, not sure.

[@papayaldabaoth]

hey man, i'm a huge fan of your sound in AB and was wondering how you achieve so much chord clarity even with distortions?

[@noobsauce]

Thanks man! we usually ease up on the gain to keep some clarity. Also it helps with the spread of two guitar parts

[@omanousmacrospool4835]

That section from 1:07 is annoying! I`m not accustomed to barring off chords, good practice I guess. Incredible song though, thanks so much for the tabs!

[@noobsauce]

Rob Murray That section is tricky for sure! I stumbled a lot there when figuring it out. Once you nail it though, it's extremely hypnotic to play through

[@DevoutionAura]

If you return to making covers, it would thrilling if you did Charging the Void by Vektor that track is fun and goes SO many places!

[@dis.infectant]

He'll need a string change. Vektor tuned to F.

[@ggrimhailer203]

andrew hock guitar playing is fantastic. anyway, good job mate

[@Randinator]

Do your fingers naturally gravitate toward all these dissonant chords at this point?

[@noobsauce]

Kinda. I try to get my fingers to do whatever my ear tells them to, and those are becoming more accustomed to dissonant chords.

[@Pennys1]

Do Red Star Sans Chastity by Castevet

[@datbass1234]

How do you EQ out the original guitars?

[@noobsauce]

Here's a screenshot of my EQ settings on the original track: imgur.com/a/MdW0g Just create a notch and sweep it across the frequencies until you find the sweet spots.

[@datbass1234]

i see, cool. Thanks for the response. I loved the new Artificial Brain album btw. Great stuff.

[@noobsauce]

Thanks so much!

[@buddy.boyo88]

first three chords straight out of artificial brain

[@batardglouton5455]

I think they definitely bring interesting chords and theme development. Call me a fanboy, but again I think AB incorporates trem picking better than most bands. That stuff has been done and perfected in the 90s. Have you heard Kvist? kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIDTnndmibuDaLM&ab_channel=Kvist-Topic

[@noobsauce]

Yeah Kvist is awesome! Trem picking is just a means of generating sustain with ferocity, it can never get old unless the melodic structures behind the trem picking are stale. I haven't heard anything like Castevet before or after

[@batardglouton5455]

@@noobsauce I went back and listened to the whole record, I take it back.
