Opeth show you how to play Heir Apparent

[@frugihoyi]

The riff starting at 3:00 in this video is THE GREATEST RIFF EVER WRITTEN.

[@Darkhound_]

Such a good riff. Weird timing and a great solo on top of it on the record.

[@jro341]

It is seriously one of the best in my opinion. If you can’t headbang to that then I don’t know what is wrong. So cool to find Opeth. I was late but it was like I wasn’t ready for them yet.

[@timoholzmann7624]

7:04 Fredrik is like "Wtf why did you stop"?

[@ThePortal101]

Man I wish they had one like this for The Leper Affinity

[@stepitupandgo67]

and for all of them....

[@leerv.]

@@stepitupandgo67 There is one for The Drapery Falls, I used to watch it frequently as that's the riff that first made my ears fall in love with Opeth.

[@horatiohuffnagel7978]

Its funny seeing there hands move almost identically.

[@krispynachos9980]

...Yes that tends to happen when playing in time

[@stepitupandgo67]

THEIR

[@coda5934]

THREE

[@silversky5554]

umm.... because theyre playing the same song?...

[@flatterswhite]

@@silversky5554 I think the joke is that they're perfectly in time

[@TheModernHermeticist]

glorious riffs

[@TragedysHalo]

The drums are epic in this song as well!

[@stepitupandgo67]

I love these riffs so much

[@codeman1180]

Love the outro to heir apparent

[@nabilhamdi3478]

codeman i always fucking hated, Heir Apparent is flawless without that part, idk man, it makes me feels some type of way

[@bazookatooth]

Interesting, I feel the exact same way, but with the intro. flawless song without the intro

[@stepitupandgo67]

crazy how good the clean parts sound with just practice amps or whatever they're using...sounds just like the record..!!!

[@el0j]

well maybe that's what they used in the recording eh

[@einbertalstein9611]

So great! Definitely one of my all time favorite Opeth Songs!

[@xkmmx2132]

I want to thank whoever posted this. I have been trying to learn this song by ear for a month now. There are a lot of parts I had wrong but very happy to see that I had even more correct.

[@KTUBE34170]

Guitar tabs has it

[@fathuman]

Such original riffs. And so deliciously evil. I love these guys.

[@sagnikbhowmick1267]

Man they missed the most beautiful riff which Akesson plays while Akerfeldt plays the slide solo

[@prawtism]

Thanks YT algorithm for giving me gold like this

[@joelhartley5108]

Brilliant song writing

[@aksdal11]

Such a goddamn gnarly solo!!

[@rangansengupta4481]

man youtube was built for stuff like these

[@stepitupandgo67]

thank god for this...I'd never figure it out otherwise...

[@bradyward2177]

Really hard to see, but still cool that they did this

[@juned_syafitra]

I like to see this kind of workshop with all songs from Morningrise album ...the album with very beautiful guitar duo...

[@nikhilmahale786]

How to do take a hair appointment.

[@linusfotograf]

Nikhil Mahale How to make a hair appointment?

[@EvlixManiac]

lmao

[@raimukoyoasu6636]

I always think this song is played in Drop Tuning. Goddamn tritone in the beginning is so gross & heavy.

[@juned_syafitra]

Morningrise still the best for the guitar duo. the two guitars have different line almost completely in every songs, yet beautiful

[@xXxThelegend27xXx]

And this whole time I thought the intro riff was one (1) guitar

[@JonnyCrackers]

Mikael is a riff god.

[@silversky5554]

this is one of their harder song to learn

[@josiahsegovia04]

I would say probably their hardest song, that freaking solo bro....

[@nmssmetalmobo107]

lol dat face 1:20

[@lucaskramer290]

this was fking helpfull xD thanks for the video

[@bassel1074]

4:00

[@zanwan05]

I might just have to try to learn this, any suggestions on how to get the sound they've got? And are these toned down? Recently just picked up the electric form playing the acoustic for a while, thanks!

[@MrGuitarTormentor]

Its in E standard. Just regular distortion for tone

[@williamparent1920]

im new with opeth song but i dont put a lot of gain to minimize the distorsion.

[@shatteredsquare]

Marshall JVMs on this record i think

[@stepitupandgo67]

very ambitious for just starting learning electric...curious, did you ever learn it?...it's taken me weeks and I still don't have it down ....not every day maybe, but putting in some damn time...

[@BigBrain100000]

Get a prs

[@gerardcorey]

Pues, tocan bien, pero pueden tocar "Ramito de violetas"?

[@KTUBE34170]

Epic

[@jessahrens8917]

They totally missed my favourite riff despite it being really simple. Makes me wonder whether or not they can't play it without a drummer

[@Anders87398]

Which part Jess ?

[@jessahrens8917]

4:09 in the actual song.

[@Anders87398]

@102277552193375039065 The first part is a tremolo picked open low E palm muted riff.

[@vexomnight3079]

it's s fast tremelo on the low E and then octave chords on 8th and 10th fret of the 5th and 3rd string and 7th and 9th fret of the 5th and 3rd string. Then they just do a slow slide up the neck of the low e string. Watch it live. Probably the easiest riff in the song

[@petegruszek]

can I get accurate tabs somewhere , somehow - dig Watershed a lot , f%^&ing rules ...

[@stepitupandgo67]

I really should make some when I get done learning it all...

[@strangeskills]

drop D tuning ?

[@laurentbelenger5190]

Strangeskills standard

[@strangeskills]

@@laurentbelenger5190 thanks

[@foroka]

E standard, not D standard btw

[@strangeskills]

@@foroka thanks
