💭 - THOUGHTS - 💭
I don’t even know what to say here. It’s been a long time. My life has changed drastically. But I’m happy to be finally putting out a new cover.
This song was requested by Legendav on patreon. I don’t know if you even remember requesting this by now but I hope you enjoy this anyway :)
I’ve been working on this one since pretty much right after Gang-Plank Galleon came out last year, and finished it completely a few months later, but then decided to re-record literally everything. I don’t really know why. I’m glad I did it though because I think this iteration is much better. I’m very very relieved that I’ve finally decided that the cover is done and released it.
Overall I think I’ve come a long way since the last cover. Despite not uploading here for so long, I’ve still been making a lot of music in the meantime and I think I’ve improved a lot. I truly believe that this cover is on an entirely new level from anything I’ve released previously and I really hope that this belief is actually correct.
I took a bit of a different approach for the video this time. Rather than filming various different parts (lead, rhythm guitar, bass) and cutting between them, I decided to show just one part throughout the whole song (à la youtube guitar “playthrough” videos). I think this approach worked pretty well for this video as it allowed me to spotlight just the focal parts of the song, and I think it makes for a more focused and less confusing watching experience. Let me know what you think!

Wow dude! I love the way you developed the main melody with each repetition, and the final rhythm riff is so sick.

[@ananassharikopodshipnikovi9308]

Great job! Way better than the original -- the original has too much repetition imo, and you change it up all the time which makes it fun to listen to
