Hardwired... to Self-Destruct Riff Medley (Metallica) - Guitar And Bass [HD]

Guitar Backing Track: bit.ly/2hqjGxi
Drums Backing Track: bit.ly/2hqtCXP
This is a riff medley from the new album "Hardwired... to Self-Destruct" from Metallica. It includes all the new songs from the two discs, in order. As a bonus, I added "Ronnie Rising Medley" and "Lords of Summer" from CD 3.
I took my favorite riff(s) from each song on the album, after listening to it multiple times. For some riffs, I felt it was necessary to add the vocals using another lead guitar.
Here's a list containing all the songs I used in this video:
1. Ronnie Rising Medley
2. Hardwired
3. Atlas, Rise!
4. Now That We're Dead
5. Moth Into Flame
6. Dream No More
7. Halo on Fire
8. Confusion
9. ManUNkind
10. Here Comes Revenge
11. Am I Savage?
12. Murder One
13. Spit Out the Bone
14. Lords of Summer
Gear used:
Gibson Les Paul Standard
Schecter Synyster Custom-S
ESP LTD Snakebyte
Epiphone Les Paul Standard
Vantage Bass
Lexicon Alpha Audio Interface
VST's (including BIAS, Superior Drummer 2 and more)

3:09 pure eargasm

[@myhorrorfestevil8292]

You know that can never play hetfield riffs on a explorer with the strap that short

[@DeeTee79]

My Horror FestEvil I believe he just did.

[@pazekobloodthirster2256]

My Horror FestEvil it feels uncomfortable that high

[@killswitch2408]

not everyone has long hands like Hetfield...if he's comfortable with this style of playing he should do it

[@tvalla]

@@killswitch2408 long arms I believe, but for a rhythm guitarist it not at all unconfortable

[@DovahVokuna]

Ok kirk

[@thorhst1666]

Explorers soul purpose is just to be worn lower than meshuggahs tunings.. period

[@smeagolfingers4116]

Thor Høst underrated

[@joshsteffen]

Excellent!

[@petar298]

Thank you!! :)

[@polat7795]

Josh Steffen wow dude

[@polat7795]

Josh Steffen my fav 2 is here

[@matz1011]

Josh Steffen I could imagine a cover of this with your Larz Drums :3

[@HUsyn6661]

Petar298 can you PLEASE tell me how did you get that iron cross guitar? And what’s the name of that exact model? Was it a limited run? I have never seen one like that

[@OfficialMoffelCSGO]

Best Riff Medley on KZbin. Bravo

[@pigthehotroddog7442]

How many expensive ass guitars can one man own? You win

[@LordDes]

I love your inclusion of vocal melodies, and it baffles me how rare that is for guitar covers. Awesome work.

[@Leo-rg8ho]

By far one of the best riffs medleys i' ve seen in long time, well done!! What do you think about the album?

[@petar298]

Thank you! I liked the album at first, but the more I listen to it the better it becomes. Moth Into Flame is my favorite :)

[@SantiagoUrrego457]

you should make a video, how you record your videos because the sound is so good

[@petar298]

Haha thank you, maybe I will :)

[@NICKWAPPERER117]

Petar298 yes please do this!!!!

[@officialdinodoestuff]

Santiago Urrego I agree.

[@elisabethfloresreginato8944]

For me, in this video i've seen te best quality from áudio and video of all Metallica guitar cover. Thank you for This masterpiece and for including lords of Summer at end.

[@randynelson9141]

Its like their best album in 15 years. Death magnetic was alright but this one blows it out of the water. Great job man keep it up

[@MrClapTrap]

More like their best album since The Black Album. St Anger, Load and ReLoad are trash.

[@Mrrandom494]

@@MrClapTrap Load was a fantastic album and even though alot of ReLoad was filler it was still a killer album, no need to be so elitist friend :)

[@MrClapTrap]

@@Mrrandom494 It's my opinion. I'm not being elitist. Load and ReLoad weren't good Metallica albums. They tried to be something they weren't. Hetfield even admitted recently that he was never fully on board with Load and ReLoad and they didn't turn out the way he wanted. You can like whatever you like, but those albums are a sloppy mess. EDIT: Also, Randy said in 15 years. That's St Anger. If you actually think St Anger is good, then this conversation is gonna go nowhere.

[@benmarley3086]

At least both Hardwired and death magnetic are better than st anger, load and reload. But I still like reload

[@akyrothea4919]

Lords Of Summer is underated af

[@stioncc593]

I agree

[@krimescenez]

[@nilaykumar6070]

Awesome medley. It sounds just like on the album and amazingly done. I wanna do a drum medley cover of Hardwired, can you share the BT for this medley? :D

[@petar298]

I just made both a Guitar Backing Track and Drums Backing Track for this medley. I put them in the description, where you can download them from MediaFire :) I look forward to seeing your cover!

[@ilikethrash1]

Great sound quality it sounds better than the originals

[@mikegoodlock7821]

Gave me goosebumps!

[@nechastivi3187]

Cudno izgleda Snakebite tako visoko, dobar medli! Gde si nabavio Snakebite?

[@kidnamedalaska]

[@demigod4171]

[@sunhyungkwon5932]

[@letermeguillaume62]

Thx for guitar and drum BT. It's cool 🤘

[@united_metalheads]

Food for my soul. Subscribed immediay. Loved it. Please do a video on how exactly you get the sound. I use focusrite soundcard with bias amp and guitarrig5 but I can't get such a sound. Plz do a video on the sound and recording processes

[@oli.thompson1636]

the ronnie rising medley was sick. is that a metallica song or...

[@yessir6427]

rainbow covers

[@redeyedlabel]

Enjoyed that!

[@sanderjansen1250]

Awesone tone!

[@thesanitarium6363]

RTL tone))Great medley, dude!!

[@alistershisheesh4721]

[@jespa14]

[@rcs-yuki]

it's so great mate!

[@amjedjabari1929]

GREAT JOB.

[@Gabitek]

Nice work!!

[@TrainsNStuff]

Awesome medley! My only letdown on the original album would be the guitar tone, so that's personally why I think Dystopia blows it out of the water...speaking, could you do a Dystopia medley?

[@milotimberlake2047]

Just saw this, subscribed

[@HJ-kf7zn]

Awesome vid!

[@marc-antoinegagnier2189]

Awesome bro !

[@MrClapTrap]

Is it just me or does the riff at 7:30 sound like the riff in Whiplash?

[@TheRealMtnDewMike]

Murder One I feel is really underrated

[@FortressUnited]

Great job! \m/

[@Dudesbrewsguitarreviews]

Wow excellent! Was all this recorded on your phone!?!

[@damiengaston8130]

wow you are just awsome gg!! \m/

[@r1coise68]

A video about Metallica songs (holding a snakebyte like normal guitar)

[@tastybaconsensation]

This honestly feels more like an overcooked hardcore punk album. Like dude the casualties had an album that sounded pretty fucking close to this instrumental wise

[@MogCovers]

well done! \m/

[@SAARussian]

What caliber of strings does Hetfield have in Hardwired?

[@NICKWAPPERER117]

Are there any specific tones you used on Bias? Would I be able to find them on the Tone cloud?

[@petar298]

Yes, for the rhythm guitars I use the Metal VH4 tone found on Tone Cloud. Keep in mind that I layered more tracks, specificly one panned to the left and one to the right. So I cannot get the same exact tone by playing it with only one guitar, but it is close to it. I also used a TS808 tubescreamer VST to add more power to the sound.

[@NICKWAPPERER117]

Petar298 it sounds gnarly man! Thanks for all your hard work, it really payed off. We really enjoy it dude.

[@smeagolfingers4116]

Me waiting for some elitist to start complaining about the Synyster Gates Custom. I have one and I play Metallica on it everyday. Is there something wrong with that?

[@JRAEYEDCEEN]

Hey are you planning on covering The Stage? (I know a bunch of people are probably asking this, I'm sorry)

[@petar298]

I have "something" planned for The Stage (album) ;)

[@urosvelimirovic9309]

how much did you pay for that explorer? I would really love to buy one myself

[@braianledesma1441]

in guitar center they cost like 420 dollars

[@dabob878]

Braian Daniel Ledesma Aleman for 729 the 1984 explorer is better for an 88' metallica tone

[@pixelbasedlifeforms]

Your shirt makes moire. Search for the term "moire in video" and you will understand what I mean. If you wear something more plain, it won't show up. Great playing and sound BTW.

[@Xynic48]

The bass kinda sound like midi lol

[@shamicentertainment1262]

Hey, I also rest my pinkie on the guitar body. We have a lot in common.

[@n.p.3338]

браво пешо

[@Callofdutypro1221]

Hey man, really enjoy the covers. But could you explain to me how I can record my guitar and bass playing with studio quality. I have no idea how to record and need to do it for school. I would use a tool like garage band. Thank you so much

[@petar298]

I plug my guitar directly into a audio interface, Lexicon Alpha in particular. Then in Cubase, I use EZMIX2 to turn the guitar signal into the sound you hear here. I record 4 seperate guitar tracks in which I play the same thing. I pan 2 left 2 right using two different EZMIX 2 profiles. By no means is this "studio quality" but that is what I used to record this video :)

[@Callofdutypro1221]

Petar298 thanks man. Really appreciate it

[@drtyblll8014]

What's that Ronnie medley from?

[@AlexRooneyComposer]

Its one of the 3-4 covers they put on Disk three for the deluxe addition along with a rerecord of Lords of Summer and proper mixes of the show they done at Rasputin music on record store day last year.

[@stioncc593]

Alex Rooney my fav cover they did was when a blind man cries, then the other two were equal in my opinion

[@binsick689]

how do you do the drums??

[@petar298]

Using the Superior Drummer 2.0 VST within Cubase :)

[@mattywoods4313]

is that a gibson 2015 standard traditional, at the intro of dream no more? , just so happens I just got one for Christmas.

[@petar298]

it's a Gibson Les Paul Standard from 2015. Then there was only the HP model and not the traditional available :)

[@petar298]

For 2016+, every model in the LP range (Studio, Traditional, Standard) has a Traditional spec and a High-Performance spec. If your question was if I had a LP Traditional or a LP Standard, it's a Standard. But since it is a 2015 model, there was no choice between LP Standard Traditional and LP Standard High-Performance. The features on the 2016+ High Performace spec ones, are mostly also found on the 2015 LP Standard, so you can iin a way call it a High Performance spec.

[@mattywoods4313]

Petar298 okay, thanks

[@haideus5226]

Amp tone??

[@DoTheCrunk]

Who else gets cringed when people call the snake byte an explorer

[@ruslanabaev6391]

Are you realy!!1?

[@Riotss]

Why is his guitar so far up lol

[@megatallica1846]

cause it helps with technique duh, just look at Mick Thomson

[@Riotss]

MegaTallica you say duh like I didn't know that. But it's up to his tit.

[@petar298]

I care more about it being comfortable than how it looks, that's why. Plus that is how far that particular guitar strap will go, so I couldn't have had it lower. Also due to the fact that the snakebyte uses more of the strap so it will be higher than other guitars.

[@Riotss]

Petar298 just saying it looks like you are using the guitar as a man bra :)

[@rrajatbbrar]

Bass is too loud.
