Mesmerizing. Watching Meshuggah covers with tabs is enthralling.

Absolutely love this cover! That bridge riff is a BANGER ❤

I’ve never seen anyone cover this song better than you and Josh Seguin. Much respect. Well done!

@@XOCailleach161XO you ;) . girl who likes meshuggah. plays not only guitar but 8 string at that. oh and knows that multi scale is better than standard

[@XOCailleach161XO]

@@thomasbranch7866 nyawww thanks 😅 Yeah, I will admit though in my silly youth, getting this made in 2012,i got the perpendicular fret at 12th so the 1st fret has too much fan, having the perp at 7th shifts the extreme fan to the higher frets which don't need barring. And yeah, huge meshuggah fan, and this guitar really helped me learn and appreciate how awesome the playing in their music is :) Thanks for your sweet words, brightens my day really 😘

@@jonmckenzie6923 yeah, for sure happy to offer advice, though for in depth mixing I'd really recommend a master of the art which I'm not quite 😅 Also can I just check, by not being able to tell it's a cover, can you still hear my part? I like to think it's a good balance where my part is definitely audible but it mixes well.. It's a fine balance honestly 🤔

[@maniacguitar]

Wow! That's epic! 10/10

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Thanks, I think it is an epic piece, I recently was informed one of the rhythms is a sorting algorithm, which when considering the lyrics makes it really deep, semiotic and meta.. Hopefully I did the piece justice, thanks for watching! ❤️🙏

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Aand No solo because I was really trying with both this and Born in Dissonance.. But it has taken ages without time to focus on more complex leads. I can do the temping time bit by AAL as it flows nicely, but honestly both this and BiD solos are really tappy and hard. I'm thinking I'll do a separate video for them once I've managed it.

[@aceofphrase]

Its very good cover! How about Marrow or solo from I ?)

@@XOCailleach161XO very cool, if I borrow the approach for my green screen stuff I'll be sure to credit you for the idea! 👍

[@h.p.dominocus]

Extremely precise rhythm picking. I can’t tell if thats an ibanez, shecter, or agile guitar. Looks multiscale to me. I personally love the Agile Intrepid 8 string. Awesome video though.

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Thanks! It's an Ormsby Goliath, in Miami blue :) 26-28.25 scale I think

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Oh oops.. I forgot this is an older video, it's my custom, made by a different Aussie guy, Etherial guitars. Much earlier in the progression of multiscale 8s, it's not as clean as my much more recent ormsby

Yo, this is fucking sick. Outstanding. It’s nice to see other people out in the wild putting in this insane amount of work to extract lessons from Meshuggah. Subbed. We should chat guitar sometime - this is awesome.

[@NOIReAMeGuitarCover]

[@hauntedbyacorrodededen]

This is by far the sickest cover i've ever seen! I just turned 16 and got my first electric guitar about 2 months ago.. and it was an 8 string! I've been practicing like crazy since the day I got it hoping to play like this one day, do you have any tips?

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Thanks so much! Congrats on your new axe! I remember when I got my custom just a year older than you, those early days playing a new 8 string were really fun! The most important tip I would give is to learn how the bottom string is a little different, even down to the 7th string you can play it just like a normal guitar, you can hit the strings a little harder and chug power chords in what I guess I just see as the typical guitar metal picking way, but the bottom on an 8 is more like a bass, power chords this low don't ring out quite the same frequency wise, and single note stuff you learn the sweet spot for how hard you pick, too much and you'll get a slightly sharper pitch. But mostly I just see that bottom string as halfway to a bass, so you just handle it a little different to your higher strings. It's also really useful for finding interesting chord voicings, try extending 6th string root chords with the 8th tuned an octave below (like drop tuning) Sorry if that's too much, but I hope it's helpful!

[@hauntedbyacorrodededen]

@@XOCailleach161XO A thousand thanks, Tallis! I'll remember all of this, and I've no doubt that your help will prove helpful. Thanks again! 🫂

[@jeanrunkle1059]

What are the intro notes. I just can't get it right. It's f standard right?

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Yep, f standard. In the intro the chugs are 1st fret 8th, open 7th, with the semi quaver fills being either 5th fret 6th string or you can do open 5th string.

hey, how are you getting this guitar tone. real amp and mic?, or amp simulator

[@the_professor5329]

Amazing work! What tuning is this in? Standard? Drop? I wanna learn this too!

[@XOCailleach161XO]

Unless I list a tuning, you can assume it's standard meshuggah tuning. Pretty much only exceptions are from a nothing, and shed off catch 33, which has the F dropped to Eb. Spasm on nothing, has a low Bb below the 7th string Bb. Glints collide, organic shadows and Stengah are all a whole step down from standard, E standard rather than F.

[@PointPanic]

Hey great job! Nice cover. What kind of guitar is that? Looks sweet!

[@XOCailleach161XO]

It's an early Etherial custom, an Australian luthier. I think he's great but there were some issues that needed fixing. That said it's aged nicely over 8 years, still sounds great with the right tone. It has bare knuckle aftermath, 26-29" scale, The white bits on the inlay glow in the dark.. Maybe I should actually use that for videos lol but it requires charging and I have flashy lights reflecting much better anyway.. Soo tl;Dr its a custom by a smallish I think Luthier in NSW Australia, etherial and they make some way wackier designs than this too..

@@XOCailleach161XO Thanks for the info. Yeah, great tone with the Bare Knuckles. Quite a cool guitar
