Dante's Inferno - Iced Earth cover by Rach Espinosa (FULL)

[@sixtopliego968]

Its been 10 years since this video has been uploaded and i still come back and just lay back and listen 👌🏼anwesome cover

[@kazaakas]

This is just awesome, you are just sitting back like a badass with some sunglasses on, while playing some really technical stuff as if it's the most normal thing in the world XD

[@kazaakas]

A little over a year ago I said this and now I can pretty much play this song on guitar! Just a few more months of practicing to perfect my timing a bit more and such and I will upload my own cover of this!!!!

[@blaspheriongoatcommander54]

+Cursus Citatus let us know when it is done :)

[@kazaakas]

Thanks for reminding me! Still have some work to do on getting the best tone through my USB Interface, but I'll get to it sooner or later :)

[@loganbrandon9411]

+Gallopeermeneer how's the song coming man?

[@merritt2014]

Ya it's not too hard to play once you get used to playing the gallop style.

[@JohnChaosVirtue]

Those triplets are just sick. Iced Earth would be pround. Respect.

[@derrickdorry]

This is nuts. Excellent job homie.

[@RachEspinosa]

Thanks!!

[@zerpblerd5966]

killerjob! one of the greatest metal songs of all time

[@nicolasgauna1605]

Todos los días practico éstos galopes para que me salgan con esa limpieza con la que tocas!!! Sos un maestro!!! Abrazo grande desde Argentina!!!

[@Sh4l0om]

13 años despues sigo viendo tu video para volver a recordar todos los acordes de esta TREMENDA OBRA DE ARTE! UNO DE LOS MEJORES GUITAR COVER DE TODA LA PLATAFORMA ♥ GRACOAS RACH! ESPERO ESTES BIEN HERMANO! ABRAZO DESDE BUENOS AIRES ♥

[@RachEspinosa]

Agradezco muchísimo tus palabras amigo. Un gran saludo desde México, te deseo todo lo mejor.

[@jrn2b]

The tapping section sounded really spot on, considering you did what you felt like as noted in the description. This is an amazing cover. No breaks, just a full jam of a nearly 20 minute epic. Respect. \m/

[@RachEspinosa]

thanks man :)

[@adamrspears1981]

Oops! I said that wrong. My eyes tell my ears that you are not Jon Shaffer, but my ears think that my eyes are lying. Thanks for uploading your cool Iced Earth cover man! You are a very talented musician. Obviously you are a natural. Keep playing!

[@schaffergallops]

man this band is my only and the most favourite and you play songs of it very well, umm well, "well" is not enough, your performance is perfect.

[@unknownhollow4141]

Thank you, I enjoyed your performance so much!

[@versus03]

ahhhhhhhh damm es una rechingonada esta rola!!!!!!!!! te salio chida, no mas que ahora hay que tocarla entre todos, tendre que grabarla

[@haiio1348]

3:20 Best Video on KZbin! All thumbs UP!!!

[@Histenchist]

Wow... you are sick dude! Just attempting this song requires serious balls, and you made it look so easy. you are a god! I'd love to hear you cover something from Night of the Stormrider, maybe Travel in Stygian!

[@EVO2597]

Respect ! Sounds fantastic... Greetings from Germany ;)

[@Fretburnt]

Damn Raf.. that was sick.. amazing job on a marathon song. Keep it up!

[@RachEspinosa]

Fretburnt Thanks bro :)

[@HonachPlay]

This song is so good man, you rock, greetings from Brazil!

[@RachEspinosa]

Thank you very much Diego!

[@jorgevazquez6667]

u're simply a fucking master with guitar. absolutely beautiful, the best iced earth covers player I have ever seen, promise

[@RachEspinosa]

thanks :)

[@shadowman253]

Impresionado... Me dejaste totalmente impresionado con semejante cover... Te quedo perfectisimo y creativo... Muchas felicitaciones!

[@TheBushwooky]

Duuuuude, you make those gallop riffs look effortless. Also, 6:32.

[@camel0089]

hahahahahaha savage

[@celebrant9]

Amazing job you did there, Rach! It was a real pleasure watching you, man, you're awesome!

[@cocktailzombie]

Excellent man!! Awsome cover

[@zdzichkowalski2681]

I would like to have just half of your talent... Awesome work bro!

[@NobleSavage86]

Very very good work man, I love this song, one of my most favourite ever!!! Long live Iced Earth!!!!!

[@LiquidT3nsion]

2022 and never gets old, 1st time i see the video, hope the dude still jammin´ as in 2011

[@RachEspinosa]

Thank you very much Israfil! I'm still alive and kickin' 😁 I still gig with my band Überhate. Thanks for coming back mate 🤘🏼

[@therideroftheli]

Awesome man! beautiful work.

[@antoniusmetal]

Magnificent. You nailed it.

[@medouch]

great how you pull out your tongue at the same passage as the drummer in athens live video, fantastic cover, I always say that 1/2 of Iced earth is Schaffers right hand and you are one of few people who can precisely play with such a menacing velocity. Also beautiful guitar, cheers to you and dont to forget to abandon you hope !

[@RachEspinosa]

@theheavymetal79 Se llama Quimera y es parte del nuevo material de mi banda Versus. Si quieres escuchar la cancion completa, simplemente busca "versus quimera" en youtube y ahi debe salir. Saludos

[@s101552]

YOU ARE BADASS! I WISH I CAN PLAY LIKE THAT!!

[@Kriethala]

Awesome cover mate,you are amazing! Iced Earths' Jon is a guitar genius and you are his heir xDD Keep rocking and take care! \m/

[@Ruloesp]

felicidades Maestro¡¡¡¡ una delicia tu video ¡¡

[@charlieewing7025]

Fantastic job man. Very impressive!

[@cichlidfeak]

This Guy is legend!!!

[@maxmolodtsov]

It was epic and awesome! Enjoyed it!

[@RachEspinosa]

@anubis1335 thanks for the comment. I used only a POD XT Live directly connected to the PC, the guitar is a BC Rich Warbeast NJ Deluxe

[@spikren]

Man, your right hand. It's like listening to Jon!

[@RachEspinosa]

Thanks bro!!

[@trajtemberg]

True that.

[@rameslayer]

Awesome! Rock on brother.

[@HGiannis]

Very nice cover you did ther man :D I hope someday I will be able to play that song too, as it is my favorite song. I have to ask you something, how do you achieve that kind of sound? What pickup do you use to get this sound?

[@RachEspinosa]

@Histenchist thanks a lot my friend. I will make another cover of Iced soon, i have not decided yet which song, maybe will be travel, stormrider, pure evil or violate. Thanks again for your words.

[@RachEspinosa]

@jern5 Gracias \m/. Utilicé una POD XT Live conectada directamente a la computadora.

[@luisrrd]

me quede sorprendido con tu trabajo, la verdad mis respetos y gracias por los videos donde explicas la tecnica, no sera mucho pedir si hicieras uno explicando pure evil? se me hace que ese es otro riff con una tecnica muy peculiar que yo creo tu si puedas hacer y explicarnos a la banda. saludos desde Mexico

[@josemachado7537]

Sin palabras, impresionante!

[@anubis1335]

Just started learning this one yesterday! You are a beast! What is your recording set up? Amps, settings, etc?

[@leokatchorro3379]

awesome dude

[@GabrielBreslau]

Sick playing!

[@stergenakis]

Very good cover!

[@RachEspinosa]

@anubis1335 =O I honestly don't remember excatly the whole settings, but i'm pretty sure I used "Modern Hi Gn" + "4 x 12 Green 25" + mic "Condenser", I remember tweaked quite hard some frequencies at the 4 band equalizer, but i don't remember which ones and the gains i used, i don't have that preset anymore, it's all I remember.

[@lewisromaryo5207]

cara muito bom parabéns chega arrepia

[@RachEspinosa]

lol ^___^ thanks a lot man! i really appreciate your comment, regards.

[@albertosandoval693]

[@alexanderklein9433]

Absolut amazing 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘 best greetings from Germany. I liked your channel:)

[@ScabbyMcgee]

Hi Rach.This is the real Randall Shawver again.I reaffirm that you did a superb job on Dantes inferno.I created a tab for all of the solos in Dantes inferno.Since you did such a great job I figured I can email them to you if you want to see exactly how I played the parts. Shoot me an email and I will send the tabs.You should take Troys place as you are a much better guitaist than he is! Take care bro, Randall

[@Joey.Darkwoods-Studio]

Still very impressed by that galloping attack brother!

[@RachEspinosa]

Thank you very much Joey!! :D

[@RachEspinosa]

Hola mano, gracias por tu comment. En unos días subiré un video explicando esta técnica, ya van varias personas que me han preguntado asi que creo adecuado hacer un video instruccional, estate al pendiente, un saludo hermano !

[@mateoortiz361]

this was badass my man thanks :)

[@skinchen]

Got the same guitar \m/ such a beast xD

[@RachEspinosa]

@ElMetalLoEsTodo Que tal bro, gracias por el comentario. Me acuerdo que cuando me aprendí esta canción, si me basé en una tab de guitar pro que me bajé del sitio de Ultimate Guitar pero me acuerdo que al momento de revisarla junto con el track d ela canción habían ciertas partes que no sonaban igual, asi que esas partes las saqué de oído, fue una combinación entre tabs y oído. Saludos \m/

[@aaaaaaaaaa2303]

Mindblowing !!!!!

[@lordberly]

am I the only one who noticed that hammock??? cool hammock btw lol

[@1ROCKSHARK]

fkn kewl rach .dig the playing and to top it off dant'es inferno damned.***** stars.!

[@erickpacas3733]

duuuuuudeeeeee thanks finally i got the rithm of the tapping... i saw various other videos and all those cowards miss the tapping

[@Ramo_Baramia]

from 5;16 mark when he dose lead part his finger move like when you put spider upside down. great job on cover

[@RachEspinosa]

thanks my friend!

[@LuisEspadas]

Muy bueno!

[@RachEspinosa]

Hi bro, thanks for your words. This guitar has an EMG 81 in the bridge position, which is the one i used to play the whole song. I used a POD XT Live connected directly to the PC. \m/

[@TheNerogarden]

Awesome!

[@RachEspinosa]

@TheMentalDecay Thank you for your comment my friend. \m/

[@RachEspinosa]

jejeje gracias JuLitro, un saludo

[@benjaminluna2663]

hey hermano que genial te ha salido este cover igual ando aprendiendo esta rola pero todavia no la casco tan cabron felicidades we y aguante iced earth

[@antoniokalanj3654]

nice job...holy shit this was soooo awesome!

[@Calforust]

The master!

[@RachEspinosa]

@RandallTheBestIEGtr Hello Randall, I just saw your comment. Thanks to take the time to watch the video. My intention was never play the solo as it was recorded, i have always thought that the solo of a song is the place where the intepreter's style should show up in order to make a statement as an interpreter and not as a robot playting everything exactly as it is on the record. Besides, this is just a video, I think Troy Steele butchers even more your leads playing live with Iced ^_^.

[@jern5]

Muy buen cover, excelente. Qué pedal(es) utilizó?

[@MrJabbawaky]

I must say, well done!!!!! Love the band and love the picking accuracy!!!!!!! My only question is, do you give lessons??? Haha.

[@julitoconjota]

dice leo que esta chida tu guitarra....rules men¡¡¡

[@RachEspinosa]

Gracias soria. Si se puede man, es solo cuestion de practicar, echarle ganas y escuchar Iced hasta sangrar. Animo.

[@knowur10sand18s]

great job man!

[@TheNatureboy64]

Excellent!

[@RachEspinosa]

@JSmetalSatch Thanks for your words my friend.

[@anubis1335]

@RachEspinosa Thanks...i have the x3 live...care to share your settings? That is agreat rendition of schaffer's tone

[@ScabbyMcgee]

The tabs are on the way brother.Enjoy!

[@ElMetalLoEsTodo]

oye se escucha genial yo tambien toco la lira pero cono dices tu.... las tabladuras no son identicas, de donde sacaste las tab para tocarlas... se escuchan de poca madre gracias si contestas ariba el metal

[@RachEspinosa]

@Ic3dEarth213 it's a song of my ex-band VersuS, the name od the song is Quimera.

[@spikren]

WOW

[@metalhusky]

cool stuff man! i also love the old Iced Earth! and youre right Schaffer is a beast, how does he play that live?!

[@Ic3dEarth213]

awesome... whats the name of the song at the start?

[@djogopatrao]

MUITO BOM!!!

[@ScabbyMcgee]

Whats up Rach? Did you ever get to post the tab for the solo anywhere? Did you learn the solo?

[@naruto10p]

aa hermano tocas perrisimo la neta suscrito

[@mickmetallico]

Hola, una pregunta. Cómo hiciste para trabajar tu técnica de la mano derecha (púa)?

[@MyGodfather96]

jackson is a good guitar ? i want to buy a guitar what guitar is best for begginers ??

[@gste7240]

8:00 favorite riff

[@RachEspinosa]

@schaffergallops Thanks for your comment my friend, i jus suscribed to your channel and watched some of your videos and they are great, let me know when you upload your version. About the technique, i honestly don't know how to help you, i just kept practicing over and over some iced earth riffs till i got the neccesary speed to play them as they are on the records.

[@lois6949]

respect

[@metalheadrailfan]

Awesome job! \mm/

[@EMPTYGRAVE33]

Hi Rach. I am Randall Shawver and I did not write those comments above about your playing. I think you did an excellent job. Whoever did write the comment is a prick for pretending to be me. Some of my leads are hard to pick out , especially the ones that are in strange modes like diminished and are harmonized.I agree that you did a much better job than Troy does by the way. It is possible someone posted when I was logged in , as I sometimes forget to log out. If this is the case , I apologize.
