Parkway Drive - Idols and Anchors (guitar cover)

[@Donnerpartyof5]

I remember watching him a few years ago and being completely awe struck over him playing these parkway songs,now after hard work and practice I can play them nearly as flawless. Thanks for being an inspiration man

[@AlchyiZKlutch]

To KillerBuckeye: It's been 15 years since I first came across this video, time flies. I was already playing, starting out, but you really inspired me to practice, play, and get good in my own terms of sense. I love this song and video, I have rewatched it so many times to learn. I'll admit, I fell out of the music for a long while, but I still get the urge and immediately think of this video. Parkway Drive came on the other day and my first thought was you and to see this, what you're up to. Im 35 now and going back to my moms this weekend where I left my guitar when I moved ten years ago. You re-inspired me again to bring it back home with me and re-learn guitar. Thank you.

[@earthsurfacepeople]

One day he shall return!

[@JPWarrant]

yeah, when he realizes that his youtube license has changed and he can now monetize his guitar cover videos.

[@H1pp0crat3s]

+Dakota Yazzie his first video will be an announcement that he will be the lead guitarist for parkway drive

[@ffjederwob8696]

+Cole Parker lol Na parkwAy will now have 3 guitArs lol. and weed.

[@Aer01614]

Dakota Yazzie let it be known It has been prophesied!

[@brandonbowers3182]

I heard something about him dying does anyone know if this is true?

[@Qulize]

Still one of the best cover after all these years. 2010, my first day in high school I was listening to this song for the first time and this video was recommended on the side. Felt like it was yesterday :')

[@Boogra]

Okay, dude. You'v been gone for like five years now. Time to stop fucking with us. We know you've been making videos. Post 'em up.

[@NygmaNL]

Agreed! Oh wait..

[@trillidabz3001]

Killrbuckeye bro I just hope you read this. I was drinking a gallon and a half of 100 proof when I remembered you existed. I've begun to skip AA altogether by buying an electric and learning to play because of you. You might have saved my life, and spared my son girlfriend and future kids from a shitty lifestyle... With your strong ass fingers. Thanks bro.

[@MattHew-dt3hk]

Hey man, things still good?

[@showmewar3496]

Dude I drink way too much. I love metal and I'm okay at best at guitar. My biggest problem is I get bored when I'm off. Even when I'm practicing guitar I wanna drink beer. Is this a legit outlet to quit drinking then?

[@pyro7602]

AA has over 90% fail rate Check out Craig Beck's videos read Allen Carr's easy way and this naked mind by Annie Grace if you truly follow the videos and books you wont even want to drink !

[@johntravolta2519]

Hey guys, u doin ok now?

[@zeppl1n]

this sounds like something Ricky from trailer park boys would say

[@drewfarmer6449]

14 years later and I'm still in love with that guitar and your videos.

[@rustyrides6002]

All these years and I'm still obsessed with that Washburn. Haha

[@SlimStarCraft]

i dont know if its the washburn or the podfarm tone he used but his tone sounds so sick

[@ColtonLewis]

I bought one about 10 years ago after watching his videos. Still own it no regrets literally an amazing guitar.

[@christopherbrown202]

Same here still on the hunt

[@gr8b8m8jared7]

Dude yessir

[@eastonclark8468]

So raw..... andd crunch town.

[@Kalyi89]

almost 8 years, still listening to this dude over and over again! I hope you're coming back sometime!!!

[@EnigmaticCreationsUK]

Still wish this guy done KZbin :( miss his awesome playing and shredding such a talented player and entertaining and inspiring to watch...

[@jimmy31hendrix]

Come back sweet prince. The world needs you :(

[@tommW13]

"so your telling me theres a chance"

[@jasonlowery8279]

Please return 🙏 😢

[@Trivium1994BANNED]

I remember watching this and his Frostbite cover weeks after they were uploaded. It was the first time I ever heard Parkway Drive and after that they became my favorite band. If it wasn't for this guy I wouldn't be listening/playing the same music I do today.

[@mostafaassaf7735]

same here

[@neroalldrive624]

Well and me too...exactly that way

[@jus10_lee]

I can't wait. One day we're all going to casually come to KZbin to see what new videos are uploaded, and we'll see a new video from KillrBuckeye in our feed and it will be great.

[@mantastyle9078]

Would be great

[@al_kaloid]

I look forward to this day.

[@kionihernandez356]

but it was just a dream....

[@metalgoat69]

Justin Lee And it finally happened!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@Viralityoflife]

policarma ya 😍

[@kennethteiken2482]

His down stroke (picking) is INSANE !!

[@al_kaloid]

His down stroke (not picking) probably is, too.

[@rosscotunes9251]

This dude was one of the main reasons I started playing, so good to come back here and see so many people say the same, brilliant cover, beautiful guitar!!

[@NoHalfSlams]

He's at 100k subs, he should be getting sent a gold youtube button and then be reminded that he uploaded some videos many years ago to his surprise have now gotten millions of views

[@nopenope7837]

+Wididy It's actually a silver KZbin button, but yeah. I assume he would need to confirm his address though, and since he rarely logs on I doubt he's getting it anytime soon.

[@p3rs0n42]

The perfect advert for not having kids, right here. A man, well on his way to becoming a genuine KZbin superstar for music, cut short by 2 children...!

[@p3rs0n42]

Rafal K no, I don't... I also hate kids. But thanks for asking!

[@metalgoat69]

Totally agree. But well, the guy was very happy when his first child borned. But yeah, he was on that way to become a KZbin superstar for music, like you said.

[@devonwilliams1663]

He realized he had better shit to do

[@toxicfl0w970]

That alternating picking is just great.

[@LeakyCougar]

Man I still love your covers 18 years later. This was the golden era of metal.

[@motinabordo8822]

Covering PWD begore PWD was cool. And still being the best cover arround. I always comeback here to listen the solo, half of the views are mine haha. Regards from south america.

[@NrGGames]

7 years...

[@al_kaloid]

Fuck.. 9 years already. Let's all pray to the metal gods (or killrbuckeye) for a legendary resurgence around this time next year. Please?

[@joaquincarballidodemiguel919]

Still best version 2016....holy

[@DustinHolliday]

I watched this video 13 years ago time flies man you will always be a beast !!

[@sherman614]

10 years later, and this is STILL my favorite cover of this song on KZbin! Also, when I subbed to you back in 08' I had never heard of Parkway Drive, your videos got me into them, and now they are my all time favorite band. I thank you sir.

[@division7473]

Moral of the story: Dont get married !!!

[@Unknown-Guitarist]

this

[@dannie2712]

haha yea but he still will have time to play and record some guitar covers or a new original. late 2016 now man still waiting for killrbuckeye the return we need you back your the shit dude

[@callumfielder6508]

It wasn't the fact he got married, he has actually been married for years. He stopped making videos because he now has a kid!

[@jacksmith7313]

yeah, don't you think that having a kid is the result of being married?

[@callumfielder6508]

Jack Smith I don't understand what you me brother?

[@wilfredomarquez1195]

I remember watching your videos when I was 15 im 20 now. Cheers

[@Iluvatar00009]

wilfredo marquez and now, when we’re 25, he’s back

[@AverageYTer]

Legend has it, he’s still shredding somewhere

[@haziq_arifin]

The solo at the end just give me something that feels nostalgia and i'm always replay that part many time. Really love this song

[@alexiluffy216]

Sedap gile !!

[@haziq_arifin]

@@alexiluffy216 woww org Malaysia hahahahk. Yupp. Lagu² mcm ni sebenarnya sedap, lirik pun clean. Cuma ramai je tak tahu menilai👌

[@hockey660]

My childhood are these videos. I wished I liked this sooner. I use to tell myself “ I only like this music for the guitar”. But I was just to afraid to accept the fact that I love the music. Either way this how I use to express myself by sharing these videos. Secretly hiding the fact love the music. Still listen years later. Thank you

[@IMPVLSE]

Still love this cover! Our band is still looking for a metal vocalist, if you're interested and also searching for a band then check out our teaser on our channel for further information! :)

[@DemBombaclot]

It's sad how this hasn't got more views when all those LOOKATMYBOOBS-''guitarists'' have millions of views... Sorry, i'm just so pissed and needed to get that out. :D

[@chaosinmind1312]

I know what u feel

[@joerivde]

How is 1m+ views not enough for a guitar cover channel??

[@equalizer4633]

Look at his other videos, 4,8M views..4,5M views, etc..

[@sebastianferlin6809]

RIP a legend in the making who got stopped short... by 2 rugrats.

[@pizzaguy8167]

who says his legend ends here? his passion might now being the best dad he can be.

[@sebastianferlin6809]

Sike

[@arrowlesskneee]

WithaSideofButter Like kids take up all your time, you still get to play guitar, so I'm sure he's better than he was in this video, probably plays everyday.

[@theviolence667]

It's been 14 years, and I am still hooked!

[@hooligan1334]

@KillrBuckeye I just stumbled upon your channel again after being obsessed with your vids 4-5 years ago. I always watched your metallica and Bullet for my valentine covers and also was happy that you are a fellow OSU fan!

[@webeechamin1167]

@Vaughn Blaylock by the looks of your picture im sure you know how much a kid takes up of your time, and i think that is his first priority which is good. I also have a few kids of my own so my time on the guitar is sacrificed. Anyone that plays that instrument knows it takes hands on time to stay good at it. One day he will come back when his child takes up a little less of his time and ill be watching for him :)

[@johnny_b_dude]

Hope he is not dead D:

[@THEUrinalCake]

If I remember correctly he became a dad and moved on to a normal life. I hope he's happy but I sure miss seeing his exhibitions of insane talent.

[@kostasntougias7874]

He is married, which is close enough! :D

[@MetalliCxZero]

i feel like only a beginner guitarist would be impressed by this

[@Daboue21]

then 1,005,561 people who watched this are all beginners. Take your negativity somewhere else man.

[@vicyanidech.o.535]

You my friend don't know how to appreciate a good player, a performer with good skills.

[@Aer01614]

Dude I guess youve never tried to play metalcore before. Sooo much muscle memory required and that takes a fucking while to build up. Plus this guy plays very nicely this isnt exaclty the most technical song that is to say its not August Burns Red but it aint a beginners song either. RESPECT the guitar player bro. Peace.

[@MetalliCxZero]

***** a million people may have watched it but 0.8% were impressed apparently.

[@MetalliCxZero]

Victor Chavarria you mean a performer with intermediate skills

[@zancrow2495]

Today's my birthday, and I just happened to stumble upon a cover of one of my favourite songs that was uploaded... on my birthday! Couldn't have asked for a better gift!

[@calebliu1592]

Dude I love this guy. Not only is he an awesome guitarist, but he also tries to help out with anyone else who might want to learn the song.

[@elilachappa3330]

Alas, killrbuckeye hath not returned. Woe to the republic of metal guitarists

[@viola0shredder]

i hate those comments about likes and dislikes, but seriously, who would dislike this? no matter if u dont like the band music, etc, this still took a lot of work and effort. this isnt some10 year old kid with a squier and practice amp in his bedroom, playing half of the notes this is quality.

[@PSYCHODOOD]

This guy is a killr guitarist. I keep watching his videos from time to time for a decade now! Deeym!

[@adampilarski201]

You are literally the guy that inspired me to learn all of the same songs. I used to watch your covers until I could play the songs. You might not know it, but you've definitely inspired many people to progress!

[@tyranasaurusty1180]

i like how you switched up the lead and rythm guitar parts instead of just following guitar one or guitar two from the tab. it made the cover sound much better, as if it needed improvement to begin with. great skills. im learning how to play this song right now, and this cover has inspired me to play it like you do instead of the way i was going to play it. keep up the greatness.

[@Naymaster424]

well, Parkway Drive has their back up guitarist right here if they want one. I'm speechless on how epic this is! Eargasm!

[@zackfreeman3985]

Damn man I usto watch you do these covers when I was 14 15 years old after school. It’s all I would do is watch you and then go play the same song and try and get as good as you. Inspiration

[@KillrBuckeye]

It's so humbling to read comments like this. Thank you so much Zack!

[@RavenD9510]

I used this video as a guide when I first learned this song my freshman year, four years ago. Actually, I've used all your Parkway covers as guides, They're by far some of the best covers I've watched on YT. I've to say this is probably my favorite :) It's very precise, timing and all. Flawless :D

[@brabus266]

I can Watch it again,again,and again ...and its still perfect . The best cover on KZbin. Who think's the same ,hand up ;)

[@stevenhansen5568]

All these years later and it still never gets old. 2018 anyone!?

[@HeyitsCalifornia]

I watched this guy a lot through high school. Big inspiration to me. I hope you can start making videos again soon.

[@SKATEFAM0US]

These are still some of the best covers on KZbin.

[@adatewithdeath1986]

This is what I like to see from a KZbin video, attention to detail AND in time. Good cover bro!

[@matthewleos71]

I hope you know every now and then I come across your videos, they make me smile and bring back good memories. I love the rawness of the videos and how simple they are, you don't ask anybody to subscribe you just let your guitar do the talking. I couldn't hit the subscribe button an quicker!

[@KillrBuckeye]

Thanks Matthew!

[@JeanSeb15]

Mastering guitar is pretty tough and requires hours of hard work but whenever I feel tired and discouraged I come and look at this guy's videos. Seeing him play so clean and so skilled like that just drives me for some reason...

[@treytose3]

by far the best cover of this song on youtube

[@Sterlosfishing]

This cover got my in to Parkway Drive. I was listening to all of my songs on shuffle on Spotify and this song came up. Made me miss you. Hope you come back soon. :)

[@samuraydesign]

Dude, we need more covers from you!

[@charlesjohnson6479]

omg i still cant get enough of the end solo this is the stuff that makes me keep playing everyday!!!.. and thx buck for giving us some of the most solid pwd covers on here.. :)

[@fernandoromeiro3198]

i saw this a 8 years ago and in 2019 still a EPIC cover, comeback, the cover word needs u xD

[@FlowerxHead907]

you sir, have changed my life, this is the thing that got me into Parkway Drive, my new favorite band, they ROCK and i love you for getting me into them! haha

[@ianwells510]

This is the best cover on KZbin ever hands down

[@geardi263]

i didn't know who parkway drive were when i first listened to this cover. now they are my favourite band and this is my favourite song by them. what a ripper of a cover!

[@prayash2008]

[@luukraver]

Your tab's are spot on! I freaking love you for making those tabs man, I really do!

[@gruesomegarrett69]

[@lazytommy0]

I love this guys videos. Always a pleasure to watch. Always a pleasure to learn (: keep rocking dude!

[@DistortionCinemas]

WHAT A BAD ASS! keep up the good work and keep rocking you! you just got yourself a new subscriber !

[@Acorms96]

[@SeanTobin92]

[@twelvedtd]

One of the best covers I've ever seen,really) No buffoonery, just classy play. Well done, lad!

[@francisfarre3631]

10 years later still being the best cover.

[@baldcommander4570]

Man I wish you would come back. Life has not been the same without the old youtube great.

[@metalgoat69]

Damn...I really miss this guy. Some years ago, this guy was a solid influence for me to keep playing the guitar till now. Hope he will return someday.

[@Reed1859]

This is by far one of the best covers i have ever seen, on an amazing song as well. Keep it up!

[@rolandorivas3406]

ive been watching ur videos for years , ur a legend

[@chasep4558]

Still sick af. Great cover and that band is so melodic and heavy.

[@hyelookitsapanda]

Dude, you're awesome! When I saw you made a cover of idols and anchors I was like 'no way! epic!' And clicked on it right away :D You, my friend, are amazing

[@pyro7602]

He's actually on Facebook and says he feels confident about returning to KZbin sometime this year !

[@Maritroli]

this man is the best of youtub guitarr covers!

[@TheDownfallin]

I actually prefer listening to this guys covers over the originals. Just the guitar tone is so perfect and its louder and more distinguishable. Awesome.

[@ConcentrateYourFear]

Duuuude i have been watching your videos since you had 3k views on this video, this was the first one i watched! Now you got 1.2m on this video alone! Thats awesome! Hope to see more from you man, the metal scene has so many more licks for you to master

[@massaker7110]

[@tsm1th611]

[@artymillz]

[@rolandorivas3406]

[@MORTALHATRED57]

i've never seen a better cover than this! you did an enormous great job!!

[@Guitarledgend0123]

Closest to perfect cover ive seen. Well done, bro :P.

[@poetictragedy23]

Stumbled across this somehow, I'm not even a huge Parkway fan, but I've got to admit that you nailed this! Really good playing!

[@mattstutzenburg5973]

I introduced a house party to Parkway Drive via this and other videos by this dude Women retreated to the kitchen, but the boys gathered round and we all bonded. Favorite house party ever...

[@kooksux]

love your covers man so much passion in your playing

[@willjon100]

this guy is the best i have seen on youtube

[@omarrodriguez4237]

Without even realizing it Ive been learning this song off his tab. Epic.

[@estradafoo]

Thanks to you, I found out about this band. You sir made a significant impact in my life.

[@DjShaprio]

great tone and solid skill on that cover bro! keep up the good work!

[@cobraboy3000]

dude ur tone is f'in killer!!! nice cover bro!

[@andthebeatgoeson69]

Been jamming to this for a damn decade 🤟

[@RyanC7777777]

Love the guitar man! Such perfect effects too! I love you dude!

[@KrommFarenborn]

wow man! you have serious skill. YOU NAILED IT! My fav Parkway song!

[@BrettRobo]

@holyguachamole the bass is uaually the backup in most cases and i think what he was saying was like the people that play bass dont like being shown up or they like bass better then the guitar. just a thought

[@Goomez93]

This cover is insane, Can't believe people would dislike it.
