Come watch the Nik Nocturnal Awards live tonight! at 5PM EST www.twitch.tv/niknocturnal

This was a very enjoyable watch Nik - more content like this please! And I don't even play guitar haha

@girugaymesh Ай бұрын

Is there gonna be a VOD on youtube too?

@Ryvene Ай бұрын

Can we have more of Nik just hanging out like this, nerding out over guitar and swapping riffs with the old school guys? Because this was definitely a fun metal thing

@michaelreimer1111 Ай бұрын

I think that would be super cool! Change things up a bit for everyone, including him! He looked like he had a lot of fun making this, and I enjoyed watching it :)

They're a great band. Steve Grimmett is one of the most mindblowingly good metal singers I've heard.

This is a new fun metal thing concept for you and I dig it. This video could have been twice as long. I like the thought of getting old school and new school together and comparing, maybe teaching each other new styles and old styles. It’s a fun direction. Keep it up.

Funny how Bill Steer was using Bstandard in the late 80's but still took ten more years for seven string "sound" to gain more traction other than Death Metal

@djentmas867 Ай бұрын

He looked like a kid in a candy store. It's great to see OGs still have fun with their instrument after so long. I will always remember when I got my 12" subs in my car and my dad said, 'this is the standard test' and turned on YES and Genesis. He loved Jesse Cash when I showed him. Hybrid earth solo blew him away and he saw Randy Rhoads and tons of other phenomenal guitarists live in his time. My dad was awesome. In the days before the internet he would have a story for every band from the late 60s into late 90s. And he knew the musicians' names from reading the back of the albums, Rolling Stone or independent magazines, or from talking to people at shows. Rip my best friend 1966-2019. He will always live through music for me.

@yinbaro Ай бұрын

This was actually quite a wholesome video to watch. I like the concept of bringing two people together from sorta different musical backgrounds and they just share the music of their people, and acknowledge each other. You could maybe do this with people from other genres, maybe people from old school rock, or important country artists, or even jazz artists!

I wouldn’t mind more of this. Not necessarily old metal vs new metal. But just different styles of metal in general. Nu vs metal core or industrial vs melodic death? Anything is good though, just my opinion.

@Powderblues Ай бұрын

While I enjoy Nik in the studio, and obviously, he has to record there for the majority of his content, it's so refreshing to see him out like this... I think it would also be sick to see him tour the States and other regions, discovering local metal bands to see their direction, inspiration, and genesis. Nik Continental!

People use 'Heavy Metal' in such a colloquial way, though. You kind of have to read the room when discussing this stuff, I guess (if you're patient enough to attempt that).

@XueYlva Ай бұрын

I think of Heavy Metal as specifically traditional heavy metal from the 70s, but you're right that most people use it to describe anything heavy even if it's Hardcore or Nu-Metal

@paivioselanne Ай бұрын

@@XueYlva I don't personally. There are songs from the 60s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s (including '10s and '20s) that are considered "heavy metal" (and not subgenres or fusion genres like thrash, funk, or alternative). Some examples: 1960s - Jimmi Hendrix's "Spanish Magical Castle", The Beatles' "Helter Skelter" 1980s - Metallica's "Fade to Black", Guns n Rose's "Welcome to the Jungle", AC/DC's "Back in Black", Ozzy's "Crazy Train" 1990s - every track from Metallica's self-titled album 2000s - 60% of Shinedown's album "The Sound of Madness" (the rest is mostly thrash metal, and some alt rock), Sum 41's "We're All To Blame" 2010s - Black Veil Bride's "In the End" 2020s - Evanescance's "The Game Is Over, "Use My Voice", "Better Without You", "Broken Pieces Shine" Etc Alternative metal, nu metal, metalcore, melodic death metal, and such are definitely much more common these days, but there are also still heavy metal songs made in the present day. Like with grunge still being a thing in the 2020s (examples: Three Days Grace's "So Called Life" and Seether's "Beg"), it's a misconception that heavy metal is an "extinct" genre.

@BaconBadd Ай бұрын

Yeah. I perceive it as having essentially 2 (maybe 3) definitions at this point. 1. The original definition. Heavy metal. See Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, etc. 2. The entirety of metal, and metal-adjacent subgenres. 3. Sometimes specifically referring to all genres of "extreme metal". Aka, anything that sounds heavy. From black and death metal, to modern hardcore, metalcore and tech death. I tend to refer to all heavy music as metal. Even Knocked Loose, for instance. But like, yeah, definitely, technically only heavy metal is heavy metal, everything else is something different. Also, last thought. Nowadays genre feels especially meaningless. Calling like, Knocked Loose hardcore feels kind of silly when they've got like, pig squeals and face-crushing breakdowns you may expect from deathcore bands. And then every modern metal band is essentially some version of metalcore. Periphery, Sleep Token, and Greyhaven are all essentially metalcore bands and they sound nothing alike.

I straight up NEVER play in a standard tuning. I started for the first year or so in standard and then discovered drop d literally from unholy confessions as well, and it was game over. I was taking lessons from a guy at a church who was a phenomenal acoustic player and he told me to bring tabs of a song i really wanted to learn and he would help me with technique and everything to get there. I brought him unholy confessions and boy was he confused that a 10 year old brought that to his church 😂 but he did it, i learned it, and now i play in drop F often LMAO
