[@hunterhass04]

if only i had that high pitched voice and could sing along... dreams of being into metalcore back in 07 lmao

[@zerobyzero4473]

Totally should do some Iron Maiden for a cover 🤘

[@FuCkInGWhItEcHaPeL]

Dude keep sweeping like that and you can probably just throw your broom in the trash

[@AnimeKid89]

Wonder how many takes you had to do for the opening solo

[@metfan4l]

0:13 alright screen tabs let's see if I c-- 0:18 aand I'm out

[@memphiscanicula8465]

That’s exactly what I thought. 😂😂

[@flhoneycomb5426]

bruh i was like aight drop cee... nvm lol

[@GamingSaurusRexYTube]

that sweep section is not nearly as difficult as it sounds, or even looks. super fun song to play and learn imo

[@NikNocturnal]

The sweeps are crazy in this

[@highincaffine2240]

still havent got the basics of sweep picking, but listening to it, its not that fast.....but for my hands...its already that fast to keep up xD

[@alejandroxan]

I miss this style of metalcore. Fast, catchy riffs, solos, shredding, double bass, 2step rhythms, and so much more.

[@purpleturtle8841]

I had no idea they used double bass in this song. I looked at videos to see if they would play a double bass live, but seems not. I wonder if one of the band members played the double bass or if they got someone who plays the instrument to play for them.

[@bryanrosado7578]

@@purpleturtle8841 he's talking about drum

[@Duarki]

what is 2step?

[@alejandroxan]

@@Duarki the rhythm at 0:43 is a 2step rhythm.

[@chilliam00]

​@@Duarki It's a dance used in hardcore punk music.

[@stoopidhaters]

Elitists: Metalcore bands have no talent. Escape the Fate: Hold my eyeliner

[@youtubesbichasspolicys5888]

Montes skills are honestly up there with some of the best in so many different genres, whole band gets way too much crap for how talented they actually are

[@davidsoux]

@@youtubesbichasspolicys5888 Too bad Monte isn’t in the band anymore and the quality of their music went to shit because of that.

[@ghostly6175]

@@davidsoux Just A Memory was their last good metal song and since then they have gone more metal pop which is disappointing

[@DenialCloudthree]

They got slash on drums tho 🤣

[@stoopidhaters]

@@DenialCloudthree Ahh yes, Robert Ortiz. He doesn't have the 'fro anymore.

[@morganfoster3477]

Forgot how hard this song hits. Great cover dude.

[@austinfaces1490]

My thoughts exactly

[@JzelMoniK]

I still don't understand how such a masterpiece ended up in the discography of such a mediocre band. I mean, I dislike 99% of their stuff, but this. This is super cool!

[@sayanmandal2246]

@@JzelMoniK IKR 🔥

[@Thick_James]

@Nesys I know that's right. I still like Ronnie's voice more than Craig's

[@JumpsPresents]

@@JzelMoniK ETF had some killer instrumentals, some of the best I've heard. Craig and Ronnies vocals were good, but the freaking guitar lines were top notch

[@DoubleTheRent]

Nik: I put tabs on the screen so you can learn the song if you want Me: ...how do you sweep pick again?

[@Dracula_sb]

Vibe

[@dugtheundead]

Feel ya on that one lol

[@dansbigfanguitarist]

Straight up took me 3 months of nonstop practice in high school just to be below average at sweeping. It takes so much practice, definitely recommend learning multiple arpeggios and just playing the crap out of them at slow tempos and slowly increase tempo if you can play it perfectly. That helped me

[@dugtheundead]

Great advice. Also practicing the blues scale a ton the same way early on can help a lot too, its used a ton in metal believe it or not

[@fudabi7850]

Love the ppl who do this especially for tabs from bands who prohibit other ppl from learning their shit on tabs aka Polyphia >.> Look up Polyphia tabs u wont find them, they monetize their tabs on their site lol

[@boxkid759]

" Through the Fire and Flames" lyric comes up. Nik: starts having ptsd...

[@Abeuss]

“My apocalypse” is my favorite Escape The Fate song to play.. good stuff. I haven’t heard this in along time.

[@cilekli_borek]

Me too

[@Luis-um1jz]

Yes

[@Vengeance0117]

This song slaps! The good ol’ high school days hanging out at the “dark side” 🤣 man... good times. I’ll slapp like just cause you brought some good memories.

[@napsisnapping]

This whole album had so many great bops, need to jam today. Bring back mall metalcore 😭

[@nvmxlxss191]

I've made a screenshot exactly when the cat showed up

[@EnergeticSpark63]

hey

[@randyhalfway]

Fun fact: Escape the Fate filmed a music video for this song in my hometown in California, and they let all the local fans be in the video. So I'm in the music video, haha. It's not a great video but hey.

[@sivrisinek777]

I can't believe you covered this, this is the song that make me pick up the guitar. You made me feel amazing man. Nice cover btw.

[@thunder8585]

After watching Escape The Fate live, seeing Kevin swinging his guitar around and jumping, I went home and started looking into buying a guitar. I have one now and I'm learning more and more every single day.

[@frostyone182]

The cat growl part had me dying. 😂 That was comedy. Your playing was phenomenal, too. Haha

[@syko297]

way back when ETF used to make sense

[@wcanderton]

This has been my most played song on Spotify for 3 years straight. I'm so happy.

[@JordanKarg]

My body was not ready for this.

I saw Escape the Fate at Warped Tour 2009. Memories, man. Holy heck. My hair was dyed two different colours lmao

Hi Chainbrain!!!

[@Hiyori___]

ah yes, one of those songs only the elite can play damn looking at those tabs was a nightmare

[@Steamerbeen]

That interlude arpeggio is beautiful.

[@TheLittletroy13]

Bro the cat had me cracking up 🤣🤣👌

[@kaiwilson9584]

nik bro this is my fav escape the fate song and i'm randomly browsing ur page and see this i love it

[@danielsakalaki]

one of the best escape the fate songs!

[@koustubhpersai5155]

Ahhh this takes me back.This is ironically the first "heavy" song I ever heard when i was 6 years old, because i was an anime kid back then, and loved to watch amvs. As always, amazing cover nik ❤️

[@mattgrundy27]

Rolls out of bed, rips monster bowl, shreds like a beast. Never stop dude! #LifeGoals 🤘🔥🤘

[@semperumbra10]

This kind of sound was peak metalcore and I miss it terribly.

[@gordondaniels9308]

The screen tabs are such a nice addition! I can't even play guitar, but having the tabs there as you played were fascinating to watch, also gave a better visual idea for what you are doing.

[@dutchy1672]

One of the best openings for a song Love it

[@KingCesar96]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE FOR LIKE AN ETERNITY, AND IT'S FINALLY UP!!!! AND THIS WAS EXTREMELY WELL DONE SO WORTH THE LONG WAIT!!!

[@prestoncassise4813]

That head bang at the end is fkn classic!!😂😂😂 love it!

[@Jakew9810]

Do the aftermath (g3) or ungrateful by escape the fate next

[@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385]

Yes!!!!!! I've been a metalhead for over a decade. Escape the fate was definitely early high school days. I still love and have all their albums. I'm mostly into Technical death metal. Listen to Archspire- Human Mumuration. You can thank me later.

[@lucasmcmanus4481]

I was watching you go through the pain and struggle of learning this song on twitch😆 So its awesome to see you finally 100% it, nice job dude!🔥🤘

[@MrJoHnConsTanTine1]

I requested this song few years back. Glad you did it. Flawless as always.

[@bananaman4589]

I love that you kill that intro sweep picking. Every time I’ve seen Escape The Fate live when they have played this song the intro is played different than the album.

[@sayanmandal2246]

This is probably the only Escape the Fate song I like and seeing you cover it just brought back a lot of memories. Thanks nic ❤️

[@GrootGuitar]

Dayum Nik! You literally knocking out all the technical metal songs that blew our minds growing up. You the champ.

[@dakkano]

This song is one of the reasons why metalcore is my favorite genre

[@GamersOfTheRoundTable]

My favorite ETF song! Love it, great job dude!

[@evanbug98]

Been waiting for an etf cover! Such an underrated band!

[@frantheravenfire]

Such an awesome song! Hearing this cover just gave me nostalgia.

Sweet sweeps mr. nik .... very impressive

[@breakingbasstv8525]

You killed it man! This song was such a banger back in the day. Thanks for the throwback man

[@xmm8299]

After two years of playing I still have troubles playing those intro arps at full speed, yet you played them so cleanly you put even the studio version to shame! Incredible cover Nick, this song means a LOT to me to say the least :D

[@bryzzt]

Holy crap i was not expecting this! Absolute beast of a song! Glad to see it getting some recognition!!

[@toastybastard9559]

Watched the tabs for the intro then started over, watched the tabs for the solo and then started over again. Pure excellence

I’m not convinced you didn’t just play the actual track (that’s a compliment as to how spot on and bad ass this cover was)

[@Semmel1710]

This song was around when I first started playing guitar and always was like one of the hardest imaginable songs to play for me back then... Still is to this day lol

Badass song and throwback to 10 years ago. Liked before even watching the video.

going back to the classics with this one, lmao. good stuff

[@chefjesres]

goosebumps and blood boil ahhh very nostalgic

[@craigheartsill6552]

Once again you kill this shit AMAZING

[@JMPK23]

Dude, I went to louder than life 2021 last year. Chugged 3 beers back to back before I got in. Felt like shit. Was waiting for sevendust cause I didn't care for escape the fate. I was thinking to myself "nah, I haven't listened to them since I was a teenager." They had like 10 mins left. The beer hit me HARD. I was in a great mood now. I was just telling my fiancee that there was 1 song I loved by ETF growing up and BAM!!! They started to play This War Is Ours. I was like " holy shit I'm hearing this live!" It was the first time hearing it in 10 years. It set the mood for the whole festival. It was one of the greatest times of my life.

[@sean_mccadden]

Absolutely killed it! If I was listening to it without the video I don’t think Id even be able to tell that you’re not Monte 😆
