NOFX - The Decline - Collaborative cover

[@emeric1234]

Everyone is on fucking point the entire song! Props to everyone involved! Love the Emperor shirt btw!

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks a lot ! For the Emperor tshirt, if you saw my other videos, you can imagine that I'm their biggest fan on earth ;) Maybe I will do a "remaster" of this "The Decline" cover, as I think it could sound a lot better today that I'm more used to all these recording and mixing stuffs. Thanks for the support!

[@EddieBooze]

Drummers on point. Too bad he's in Greece! I'd be doing some musician poaching here!

[@Pendarr]

Wow, this deserves way more views than it has! Incredible cover and great job by all involved. The instruments sound fantastic and I like that the singer keeps the spirit of the original but has his own sound. The part from 4:11-5:48 has always been one of my favorite parts in any song period, and your guys' rendition gave me chills just like the original does. Fantastic job :)

[@emperialAnthems]

A huge thanks to you for this wonderful comment !! :)

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks !!

[@sirundying]

this is really sick. good job.

[@emperialAnthems]

Manuy thanks dude ! I asking myself about re-record the guitars and bass for this cover and remix it, This one was done a few years ago and I was a full beginner on recording/mixing/etc...Now I think this could sound better than that... We will see, because this song is huge moutain and it takes a looooot of time :)

[@sirundying]

@@emperialAnthems ithink this cover is fine. it will be hard to do better. feel free to watch my cover of the death of john smith by nofx.

[@juliocesar4217]

Awesome 👏🏼 Well done 👍🏽Congrats from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks Julio !

[@milankurtan9587]

must have been a lots of work and invested time, well worth it!

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks a lot Milan, yeah it was a hell of a time invested to work on all songs parts, record all instruments, film everything, mix everything, etc.... ;)

[@CrystalCat24]

My all time favorite song AND you have an Emperor tattoo? Awesome. Nicely done BTW. Great harmonies!

[@emperialAnthems]

Sarah Moore Thx Sarah! Emperor + The Decline = Ultimate combo :) And this tattoo had been done by Trym Torson (Emperor's drummer), I went specially in his tattoo studio in Notodden (Norway) for that 😉 I also have the title of my favorite all times song (With Strength I Burn, from Emperor) on my left forearm... Emperor die-hard fan inside 😉

[@CrystalCat24]

AMAZING. I'll have to tell my husband. He has 'let it all come down' tattooed on his leg... Emperor (and Ihsahn) and NOFX are his top 2 favorite bands! What a weird combo!!!!!. He plays music too. I swear you 2 need to meet! BTW, we were lucky enough to see NOFX play the Decline at a show in Seattle, WA a few years back. So cool! :)

[@emperialAnthems]

Amazing! Yeah, we need to meet for sure ;) Emperor+Ihsahn and NOFX are too my 2 top fav bands. Just saw Ihsahn this week live in Paris, I also met him last year in London (I was invited by his staff for the preview listening session of his last album Arktis.), this guy is my God. You can ckeck out my YT channel, I covered a lot of Emperor and Ihsahn songs.

[@nacholibre8412]

My dream would be to see the decline played love.

[@bintangniti]

AWESOME COVER GUYS!!!!

[@walter30482]

[@sebastianyusuf5181]

This is sick! Totally fucking sick! best nofx cover on youtube! And sound!

[@emperialAnthems]

yusuf burkett Thanks a lot for your nice comment, really appreciated 😉 I spent a lot of time on this project and I'm happy with the result and the sound of it. Hard work but it was worth it.

[@XoVieira]

great work guys! funny the "mr.bean style" blooper at 11:27 ahah

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks a lot !! Ahah, yeah Zack's blopper was funny so I let it in the video :) this passage is tricky as you need to count each measure in order to get on time with the music.

[@XoVieira]

@@emperialAnthems yeah eheh i know, i love that kind of impredictability in some songs. Hey checking out your channel, punk rock and black metal eheh. funny enough my first 2 bands i played (in the 90's) one was punk nofx style, and the other blackmetal emperor influenced

[@emperialAnthems]

@@XoVieira Yeah funny, seems we kinda like the same bands ;) I was also parts of a punk band (influenced by NOFX, Rancid, Uncommonmenfrommars, etc.), and now I'm currently playing in Allegiance, which is a symphonic black metal band mainly influenced by Emperor (you have the various links to our FB, bandcamp, etc...) in the description of my latest videos. Our demo and 1st album ("Beyond the Black Wave", 2018) are also available on the "Black Metal Promotion" youtube channel, don't hesitate to check it out ! Cheers from France bro !

[@melissamurphy3776]

Wow, I’m a 20 year NOFX die hard fan, this is by far the best cover I have heard. Well done kids! Cheers to my funeral song 😘 #AMCtothemoon 🚀🚀🚀

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks a lot Melissa for these kind words! This song is also in my top 3 of all times !

[@melissamurphy3776]

@@emperialAnthems no joke, it brought a tear to my eye. Really well done. NOFX would be proud, have they heard it?

[@emperialAnthems]

@@melissamurphy3776 Thanks again ! I have no idea wether they already heard it or not. It would be nice ;)

[@ZackRamsey14]

emperialAnthems Thanks man! Thank you for including me in this epic project! Your guitar and bass parts were killer and those harmonies you added got me! Great job!

hahaha it happen' to me the same but he left it out !

[@drpeepeace]

what's next dudes ???

[@michaellandgren549]

Probably more work than NOFX put into! :D Good job!

[@emperialAnthems]

Ahah, thx a lot dude ! But according to what they said before on their website, this was a nightmare to record for them too ;)

[@vileCR999]

@@emperialAnthems I stumbled across this video today and I love it man. I was screaming the song out along with you guys. I got to see NOFX in concert in Japan for the very last time they ever played this song live. THey said they were so happy to never play it ever again. hahaha

AngrierGorilla yes it was a loooot of hours working on it 😉 but it doesn't matter, as the result is fine, at least to our ears 😉 Thx dude!

[@luiscyphre4660]

This is awesome! Well, not the video, the sound ;)

[@emperialAnthems]

Luis Cyphre thanks a lot! 😉

[@Sweet.Ohm.Studio]

Mais je le connais le gars au trombone ! Bien que cela ne soit pas ma "tasse de thé" (et puis on s'en fou), je la trouve mieux que l'originale... Enfin, une fois de plus la musique nous démontre qu'elle n'a pas de frontières et se moque bien des différences, pour cela et pour le reste, BRAVO !

[@emperialAnthems]

Merci beaucoup JL ! Et merci pour les conseils avisés au niveau du mix (le doublage de la ligne de basse :) ) !

[@BloodClanResurrection]

The only thing I don't ever seem to like about NoFX song covers is because most people who do the vocals sound very whiny, and gives it more of a pop punk feel than a punk rock feel. Everything else, I dig. Lol

[@adiktdj]

esta de huevos =D

Thanks a lot Chad !

[@BandBcolandro]

Uh duh

[@hypan0vaULTRA]

really awesome cover. if i had to nitpick, the guy with the moustache and glasses in the black NOFX shirt is unnecessary as he doesn't offer much and he sounds so awful that he brings the song down. otherwise, pretty sweet.

[@emperialAnthems]

Thanks dude. The story behind that is that this guy is a good friend of mine and a real NOFX fan, so it was a pleasure for me to have him participate to the cover, despite the fact that he is not a musician 😉 Cheers

[@sintaklaas6427]

good cover. still feels pathetic
