Neon Genesis Evangelion | A Cruel Angel's Thesis Meets Metal

[@skazwolfman8622]

No one else has said it yet, so I will... GET IN THE DAMN ROBOT, EROCK! Y'all are welcome.

[@TheHeroOfTomorrow]

No one else said it because he would actually do it. :P

[@drsatanrx]

TheHeroOfTomorrow so hes spike spencer from nadesco not spike spencer from eva. Got ir

[@Nosregni]

Nobody else would have the *nerv* to say it.

[@matz1011]

But what of he goes berserk with it!?!! 1!! :0

[@VuLamDang]

@@matz1011 it's gonna be Metal

[@dulcae]

the constant enthusiam on ur face throughout the vid is always the best part

[@NeoTechni]

jippun I know right? I love his smile.

[@maycontainhyjinks2347]

Agreed!

[@Poo_Brain_Horse]

Through the video, through the years. His enthusiasm for what he does is eternal.

[@UnveiledShadows]

You're telling me this HASN'T been done yet?

[@Margar02]

Evan Prowse my thought too

[@bloodykills7509]

Get in the robot Shinji Shinji: *depressed screaming*

[@mariic2]

Bayvangelion!Shinji: I'LL FUCKING DO IT!

[@mmadej1]

I can hear that

[@nathannever7209]

Neon Djentelis Shredagelion

[@Banjalo]

no

[@arvurebantra7639]

This comment will never get enough thumbs up to satisfy me

[@RockmanMegaX]

Djentesis*

[@Trash_prince]

This comment made my djentitals hard

[@josephgeubtner]

not djent at all fucktard

[@hemidas]

After listening this, Shinji finally grew a pair, got into the robot, saved the world and banged Asuka!

[@thomasthetankengine5528]

Jovan Mitrić well he banged asuka all right, but i think bashed is a more appropriate term

[@williamtael8379]

Because... NO HOMO!

[@williamtael8379]

Yeah! After he strangled her of course.

[@themaster408]

Their relationship was umm...interesting

[@paladin50554]

I think I'd rather bang Rei. The queen of mean just doesn't seem worth it.

[@flintman6458]

Fastest click i have ever done in my life

[@Mare_Man]

I'm a simple man. I hear Cruel Angel's Thesis, I like.

[@The_Blue_Otaku]

Bruh this cover slaps so hard it caused the third impact

[@NERVniy-re5lf]

Angels put dislike

[@olliedennison8650]

Looks like 58 people didn't want to get in the f*cking robot

[@ChengHooSew]

God is shredding his guitar all is right with the world

[@kaedo-2740]

Cheng Hoo Sew BEAUTIFUL WORDS Also love your profile pic ahahah

[@PinchyTheKittyGirl]

How does this video not have more views?? Erock and Evangelion; a winning combination!

[@uzumakicorona5303]

Shinji get in the rock guitar cabel

[@kaedo-2740]

After listened for 4 times I can surely say that this the most beautiful cover that I’ve ever heard.

[@07actual]

WHY HAS THIS BEEN EVERYWHERE IN MY LIFE LATELY Not that I'm complaining.

[@submituniquenamehere]

07actual Eva 4.0 confirmed?

[@07actual]

JB_KnifeCollector I can only hope. It's been so long I've started to think that the preview at the end of 3.0 is all we're going to get of 4.0, that the "alternate ending" it was supposed to portray is going to be no ending at all. A world where Anno didn't even draw the robot for Shinji to get in.

[@BRANMiiNO_Animations]

Awesome profile, is that what you look like or is that a character?

[@submituniquenamehere]

From what I heard there was a job listing for a CG artist for 3.0+1.0 listed back in May so hopefully there will be some actual news soon *fingers crossed*

[@TurlasThe6]

This song was my "introduction" to proper anime music, rather than the funimation crap they made for the dubs. Back before the internet, if you wanted to listen to this song, you had to rent the video and rewind it over and over...which I of course did. Thanks Erock!

[@amosdeguzman9980]

scyx Funimation crap? You mean like Rock the Dragon? Cause yeah, that's crap.

[@bangasou12]

scyx Amos de Guzman those were the days

[@Phantom-kc9ly]

Amos de Guzman rock the dragon is better Cha La Head Cha La

[@suburbanhavoc4997]

Rock the Dragon is cheesy as hell and I love it.

[@DerekHartley]

Well, you could also but the S2 works box set with every piece of music from the show.

[@prrocker9637]

What a thing to wake up to I approve

[@Evangelionism]

_Wish my hair looked that silky. What's his secret?_ *He uses L'Oréal.*

[@alovesinceforgotten]

Maybe he's born with it Maybe it's Maybelline

[@Houldey]

Ramiel is best waifu.

[@339Jackscarify]

[screams geometrically]

[@merakispacelich13]

Houldey indeed

[@Mic_Glow]

I love Emilia.

[@12NiBer12]

LMFAO Geometrically you fucking win the internet today

[@iamnotbabyblue]

Amazing playing. Definitely in my top 5 favorite youtubers! Also, that smile gets me every time haha!

[@RudyAyoub]

PunkTunes whos your other 5?

[@iamnotbabyblue]

Rudy Ayoub my list is 1. SteveTerreberry 2. Alfred Potter 3. Robert Baker 4. 331Erock 5. MusicIsWin

[@RudyAyoub]

PunkTunes never heard if alfred ill check him out

[@iamnotbabyblue]

Rudy Ayoub he’s a teacher but he pretty much taught me how to sweep with his KZbin videos. He’s an amazing player as well. I love his way of teaching.

[@mechislander]

YOUNG MAN, BECOME A LEGEND

[@larryplympton9727]

OMG, thank you so much for this. I remember when Evangelion first came out! Haven't thought of this anime in years, and BAM you (as always) create a master piece that brings back awesome memories!

[@LUSIFERSTLEVI]

Why do you do everything I love into Metal?!... I love it. Do not stop 🤘🏽

[@randomuser22]

Can you do initial d next?

[@Lamb666]

Want his hands to go drift

[@UnveiledShadows]

He's already done solos for Running In The 90s and Deja Vu (Look up RichaadEB)

[@PACKERMAN2077]

Lamb Choppy guitar drifting is actually a real thing I would love to see him try that technique

[@falsorr1959]

I suggest you to check RichaadEB on KZbin, he usually does Initial d with Erock, Jonathan young, Caleb Hyles and Family Jules

[@Sephiroth20222]

Looked them up and well worth it. Music video is hilarious. Jonathon Young is always entertaining with his videos. Great group of musicians too

[@takumifugiwara7604]

get in the guitar shinji

[@PsiQss]

I can never get enough of the happiness on your face whenever you play guitar. Every video, it's like your smile is saying "Yes I can finally play again!!" :D It's just so amazingly.. Damn I lost the word here.. Just know that it makes me widely smile too :)

[@down23arth27]

Still the happiest man alive

[@TheSurrealist.]

Erock PLEASE DO MORE EVANGELION!!

[@Yuumeda]

[@drsatanrx]

[@Ciphonn]

The Ultimate Anime Anthem

[@BestAtNothing]

This shit SLAPS hard my man

[@flintwest]

I've waited for years for you to cover this song. And it meets my expectations as usual!

[@carnalcarnage4637]

Bro I can't tell you how much I love this. I've been with you since near the beginning and I've never failed to be impressed by your talent and musicality. This is one of my favorite pieces of music and you've done it an incredible justice. The improvised solo for this one, I honestly think, is one of your best, most beautiful works (seriously those sweeping tap legatos were so crisp and melodic) and it's incredible to see how, time after time, you can take something already so great on its own and elevate it to an even higher level. Sending all my best regards your way man. Keep on rocking. \m/

[@TrueNeutralEvGenius]

Damn, you have no idea how I laughed when I saw this in sub box. I saw NGE in 1998 for the first time... Do I really need to make more comments? I don't think so.

[@denizerdem6467]

It was only a matter of time, and it was delivered oh so well. Fantastic. Thank you Erock.

[@sabunkompas]

NO NO NO NO, STOP THAT MUSIC RIGHT THERE, YOU'RE ALREADY CAUSE THE FIFTH IMPACT.

[@liger4414]

My favorite show and you did a metal theme Thanks, man.

[@ipwnyoudiehaha]

*YOU FINALLY DID IT AHH MAH GAWWDDDDD!!!!*

[@zevorothrappaleano58]

How ironic, I just got into Evangelion recently and have now seen the show, end of Evangelion film, and the 3 rebuild films. Then this comes out. Amazing work by the by

[@MidnightDB]

I can not put into words how happy this makes me. The greatest advice ever made with the best OP in anime history! Awesome cover, dude!

[@cosmicomen9945]

YESSS!!!!! I've been waiting for this!!!!

[@dainiusvysniauskas2049]

How about another absolute classic: Rurouni Kenshin?

[@pedropabloarango]

Dainius Vyšniauskas OMFG YEEEEEESSSS!!!!!! The first season OP is SOOOOOOOO GOOD!

[@BonaparteBardithion]

I'm partial to doing a metal version of the second ending. The melody would sound good on guitar and it would be the greatest stylistic departure.

[@BonaparteBardithion]

Though what I'd really like to hear is the background track Starless. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIiXmIiImNx9hpI

[@dainiusvysniauskas2049]

Personally, I would love to hear metal version of "Departure"

[@vanerek]

Either departure of heart of sword, would love to hear either... Or both

[@gmexecutioner7766]

Awesome! Didn't expect you to do this, A Cruel Angel's Thesis is one of the best anime openings in existence.

[@Chibsukeangel]

You are amazing and this is my favorite anime

[@M.AmineLMK]

Man you're killing it...you're THE BEST \m/🔥 🔥 🔥

[@nt1ez8]

Maximum awesome! Love your stuff and would love more anime!

[@Xahn777]

Finally, the greatest anime opening of all time gets the Erock treatment.

[@wiliammbr]

You are the best! Great job doing this one!

[@7head7metal7]

yes, Yes, YESSSS! Instant goosebumbs, thank you so much!!

[@horizon241]

Love it! Was singing along the whole time. Brought back such memories. :D

[@jareddawkins9885]

I love it bruh been watching your vids since 100,000

[@zerogear8439]

Great as always! I especially love the solo!

[@Xemris]

Awesome performance like always, thank Eric. You just remind me the first time I consciously watched anime soo many years ago :D And yes, NGE was my first anime, including End of Evengelion....

[@earthboundisawsome]

that took a lot lower of an octave that I would've expected. I still ended up throwing my head to a song I'd never thought I would.

[@AmethystAxoltol]

About time and god damn does this work

[@beastialmoon2327]

Holy moses! I've been listening to Cruel Angels Thesis on repeat for a week now and was wondering if you had ever covered it My prayers were answered

[@Sconstio1]

[@Reign649]

Awesome job! Love the theme and the amine keep up the great work

[@rai_harn98]

Aw yeah you finally cover this one!

[@andregino7721]

Nostalgic. Beautiful!!!!!! Keep On!!!

[@SomnathRoyGrimfangs]

I realised while watching this video that eight years can change a man a lot.

[@vali6717]

The heat index is 103 and this still gives me chills!

[@GGDrummer]

Very cool!! Amazing performance Eric!

[@iccemitsu]

So cool! You did a fantastic job! 🤘🤘🤘

[@Thaurok123]

[@vi789]

I LOVE YOU EROCK!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jamesmandarino6641]

[@thoraxtheimpaler09]

Congratulations!

[@punchtoy4546]

the tapping for the synth sweeps aha

[@themeatpopsicle]

definitely one of the best metal versions

[@nvlarcht]

Finally, what i was looking for

[@o.o4566]

YES!!!!! My childhood. I love Eva!!! This is absolutely perfect!!!

[@NegiTaiMetal011]

Awesome of one of anime's greatest intros ever. I say "get on and rock on, Erock!" I hope you can do the opening of Magic Knight Rayearth, called Unyielding Wish. That one's a classic too. Also if possible, metalize idol songs too \,,/

[@SonNaruto5]

nice job bro! You are the best rocker ever! You should do some more anime songs. You should start with Gurren Lagan's theme

[@ЯковПеткау-б7ф]

Superb, Dude !!

[@zeeikook6220]

I LOVE THIS

[@logy650]
