Nirvana - Rape Me (Guitar Cover)

[@FireRainFimficReadings]

And this is why people are jealous of Kurt Cobain's musical abilities - four chords + shit tonne of muddy distortion and a hell of a vocal scream to form a kickass song. Kurt was real. Unlike what you see nowadays where it's all synthesised and written with no feel to it. Awesome playing, my man. If only Kurt were alive to see you play, he'd probably jam with you!

[@Tomnedreb]

Hear hear!

[@Eyeupthebison]

Depeche mode has a fuck ton of feel and it's synths. Modern day pop is full of tons of feel. You're just a fucking old geezer who hates music and is limited to You're restrict ass takes. Nirvana main inspiration was the fucking Beatles who were pop

Why do I love that riff so much

[@jasminesonogong1784]

it kinda sounds similar to smells like teen spirit xD

[@supersmarty8496]

@@jasminesonogong1784 Correct me if I’m wrong but I think it is the Smells Like Teen Spirit riff in reverse

[@Kokurorokuko]

@@supersmarty8496 It's not in reverse but same chord relations. A half-step higher though.

[@mastrofpuppets]

@@jasminesonogong1784 because the strumming is the same rythem and smells like teen spirit has the same strumming pattern

[@username55ify]

Your guitar looks like a 70's car.

[@dacrafter17]

Haha

[@sagooaudio1101]

its Kurt Cobains signature guitar. The Jagstang.

[@emmanieuwenhuis2688]

I wouldn't say it's his signature guitar.

I NEED THAT GUITAR OHMYGOD ITS BEAUTIFUL

[@ibacache6555]

Its a Fender Mustang Kurt Cobain

[@john246877]

+Cristobal ibacache ramos No, it's a fender jagstang.

[@ibacache6555]

John Pickford almost try it

[@john246877]

you are wrong. This guitar is a Jagstang, not a mustang. vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/fender/images/5/58/Fender-jag-stang_1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150515133242 There's no denying it. It's a jagstang. EDIT: Also, look at the headstock. Jagstang.

[@ibacache6555]

+John Pickford Don't think bad of me, my dirty English, yes is a jang stang, i try to say, I almos try it, me, not you, and it's a hybrid it was close :')

[@patrickallen8787]

Big thumbs up for such a passionate performance!!

[@weenibeenies]

Man The Outro To The Song is So Godamn Good Just Makes You Wanna Mosh To it So Hard! Nice Scream At The End Dude!

It Kinda Feels Like Stuttering Be Cause It Is Pretty Annoying To Read And Write So Why The Fuck Do People Do This

Im really feelin' this

[@pamp4399]

Yours covers of Nirvana are the best man, and that Fender Jaguar is so beautiful.

[@shaggymotionless4269]

That's true, it's a jagstang btw, it's a mix of a fender mustang and a fender jaguar which kurt designed him self

[@leejk3926]

Nice fireplace. And of course insanely good playing too!

[@Tomnedreb]

When Kurt Cobain wrote Rape Me he wanted to make a strong statement in support of women and against violence toward them. In his words, the song is a sort of poetic justice. A guy rapes a girl. He ends up in jail and is raped there. The song was written around the time Nevermind was recorded and was first played live that year, although it was slightly different to the album version. Tuning: Half step down. Equipment used: Fender Jagstang, Sansamp Classic and Fender Mustang IV amp Lyrics: Rape me Rape me my friend Rape me Rape me again I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one Hate me Do it and do it again Waste me Rape me, my friend I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one My favourite inside source I'll kiss your open sores I appreciate your concern You'll always stink and burn Rape me Rape me, my friend Rape me Rape me again I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one I'm not the only one Rape me! Rape me! Rape me! Rape me! Rape me!

[@syahmiabubakar]

Tomnedreb did you use ds2 ? Sounds awesome man

[@chefmike4414]

However rape doesn't have to mean sexual violence. For instance "rape the land". Rape is defined by taking something away without any regard for the subject or object you are targeting. I didn't look it up but that sums in up.

[@Tomnedreb]

@@syahmiabubakar Hey! I use the sansamp on this one. PS. I always put my gear in the description.

Probably the best cover of this song yet

[@ericcavazos3587]

I just bought myself a guitar and honestly honestly, the only reason why I bought myself a guitar was because I’ve been listening to Kurt Cobain music for a while now and the more I listen to his music; the more I want to learn how to play. If you ever thought about showing us how to play nirvana songs, I’ll be the ones looking at your videos because I literally do not know how to play guitar but anyway I just want to say that’s you’re really talented and thanks for playing Kurt Cobain music😎🤟🏼

[@zombie4skin28]

If you learn like 4 chord shapes you can pretty much figure it out from the videos you see, learn E and A chord and then the barred version of those chord shapes

[@redgrave950]

Everytime I watching his covers, I bring my guitar and playing all songs of Nirvana. It gives me a motivation
