Rings of Saturn - Gidim [Guitar Cover & Tab]

That's the reason of my long absence =D
Check out my new song, don't be indifferent ;-) • Ximoron - The Fog [Ori...
TAB: www.dropbox.co...

[@Ximoron]

This is hardest song I've ever played, 225 bpm... Faster than Dragonforce!!! But not hardest for tabbing with the exception of one place... Funny moment - notes are heared very well because the guitars in song (and album) sounds like Guitar Pro 6 with "Rings-Of-Saturn" sounbanks))))) No offence to these guys! \w/

[@MrLoloshenyka]

You have "Rings of Saturn" soundbanks?) Lmao, i can't find it for 2 months ;) i'm impressed by your playing gidim and the macrocosm. Fantastic work :3

[@Ximoron]

CATAHA \ Алекс Still looking for soundbanks too ;-) Thank you for feedback!!!

[@mrlevong7501]

man. you got it. respect...

[@rafaelnunes2478]

Fuckin good cover!! Try look for Émergence by First Fragment later. Harmonic Minor gods.

[@dragonreaper886]

I acutally really wanna know how to do the thing at 2:00 could uh you or anyone give an explanation or show how its done?

[@AdrianDV]

Have you realized you did the only cover of this song in the whole internet? Hats off to you, sir.

[@Ximoron]

ADV that’s the reason I made it \w/ Thank you!!

[@leerobbo92]

It's actually disgusting how easy you make that look. Unreal technique!

[@Ximoron]

leerobbo92 thank you!!! But playing this and remembering all the notes with your arms was very hard :-)

[@ricksanchezito8972]

He has "Michael Jordan mouth", so you know that he was in the zone and not in complete control. He was just letting it flow and voy did it fn FLOW!

[@borknagarpopinga4089]

Are you out of your mind? :D Jesus Christ...this is just mind-blowing. Those are the fastest sweeps I've ever seen. Another proof that Lucas Mann and Joel Omans are not from this world. It's one thing to cover that insane creation, but WRITING and INVENTING stuff like this is just straight-up nuts. Gonna see RoS next month twice, in Oberhausen and in Hannover, gonna tell them that they both belong in an insane asylum. :D :D :D Great job, dude, if Lucas ever needs a replacement for Joel, you're his go-to guy :) (Y)

[@Ximoron]

Borknagar Popinga /-D Thank you very much for feedback! Lucas and “the team” are awesome in inspiring us to be better!!!

[@IveGotThis]

INSANE. You made this look like it’s an easy song to play, when in reality it’s a technical masterpiece.

[@autumngloom9870]

Dear god. Even to this day over 3 years you're the only cover I've found. Your face is so nonchalant through one of the toughest songs to play. It's insane.

[@TheMonk111]

WE USED TO WANT TO SWEEP LIKE LUCAS. NOW WE WANT TO SWEEP LIKE XIMORON

[@l4dl4dl4d]

Have literally watched this about 3 times every day for the past month Still absolutely amazing

[@Leo._...]

absolutely insane, it pains me how I have nobody to share it with, anyone who can appreciate this music. Great cover

[@Ximoron]

Sweet words, thank you!)

[@misplacedmemories22]

You are one of the top 5 most talented guitarists I have ever seen! You’re better than most pros out on tour

[@Ximoron]

Caleb Betczynski thank you very much!!!!

[@BloculusMonster]

How anyone can cover this song and still look like they are about go to sleep is a damn amazing feat. Kudos!

[@JimInFlames]

one of the hardest pieces witnessed on electrical, unreal

[@PochiPanda]

Man this is nothing short of insane, i cant even fathom how hard it is to remember that chorus let alone play it.

[@Chaosdude341]

Oh my Christ, my dude. That was one of the cleanest covers I've ever seen of any song, and some of the cleanest playing I've ever seen. Spectacular. Excellent work.

[@lopikosmusic9354]

You make it look like playing guitar is the easiest thing in the world, the mark of a true virtuoso.

[@vecseyadam1992]

Hey, I was working while listening to Gidim's 2-hand tapping part (02:02 - 02:17) when this hit my brains: "damn, this part is fucking spectacular to watch! wait a minute... that guitar player guy... he tabbed this cool-looking part too by ear only, without any video references... what the hell??? is that guy actually a human???" I didn't think about this before and I know that with your skills, it wasn't probably so hard to find out how this part was played, but still... it's amazing.

[@Ximoron]

I make tabs by ears. RoS are record super clearly that you can slow down the song up to 4 times and hear notes :-D I thought a lot about the way of playing the part at 02:02 and tapping was the only way I could manage it)))) Thank you for your support!!

[@nikhilt9671]

So insane! I was waiting for someone to cover this, really good job

[@Ximoron]

Nikhil T thank you very much! Enjoy and stay tuned :-D

[@lucas_skillboy1982]

Hey Nikhil, i know you can play this one, i hope you play some more Rings of saturn in your channel, divine authority performance was insane

[@nikhilt9671]

Lucas _SkillBoy Thank you man

[@derektafoya1152]

Abso-fuckin-lutely legendary

[@Originalzzzz]

This is absolutely beautiful. Added this to my science playlist.

[@Rob_Cary]

I don't need to tell you that your cover is bad ass. You know that. That shirt is sweet. Gidim was such a good album. I hate the new one.

[@JimInFlames]

who can compete with this lol zenith tier and makes me really wonder how the hell did lucas compose this

[@BigJ0]

by getting Joel to do it lol.

[@erdemyelmenoglu7791]

This is the next level of guitar playing, bravo!!!

Cheers!!

[@dragonsban3327]

Wow just wow i never thought someone would cover this

[@ARX]

coming back to this video every month for last 3 years man is a freaking machine. this sounds unbelievably good, no mistakes and it is also one-shot capture just wanted to show you words of appreciation 🙌

[@Ximoron]

I’m happy to read your comment, really! Thank you!

[@WittyName44]

In the zone! Well done. Especially love the attack you have on each note. Makes it nice and crispy. Can't help but notice the ability to hold back the massive gain with your right hand/pick too, without a dampener on the neck ... Great technique. You make us all want to try. Thanks for the tab to do such a thing as well!

[@shawngguitar]

Dude you make this look way easier than this actually is hahaa 😂

[@oldcouchcushion1545]

My God that seamless transition from the two hand tapping to that nasty sweep around 2:25 was phenomenal. You're unbelievable, I don't know if I'm more impressed by your playing or your ability to tab this stuff by ear. Incredible stuff

[@animachainzvideoz5921]

This is incredible to say the least. I hope you are making money with these skills, too good.

[@autumnisafraid]

i’m a year late, but this is absolutely insane. as a guitar player of only 2 months, i can only imagine playing rings of saturn. so good!

[@Ximoron]

Enjoy and have success!! \w/

[@autumnisafraid]

@@Ximoron many thanks! 🤘🏻

[@espcob]

Wow, a Legit cover of Rings of Saturn and awesome performance with this song GIDIM. Congrats! You got my like and sub.

[@thefitnessward_]

This has to be some of the best playing I’ve ever seen. Just. Wow.

[@jojoversus1100]

I would say go watch the people that wrote it play it, but they've never actually played Gidim in any way. No playthrough, no live videos. Nothing.

[@elFxble]

one day ill be able to play like this. inspiring bro !

[@Ximoron]

Keep practicing!!

[@rondunlop5439]

im on shrooms right now hearing this song for the first time and seeing you play this has absolutely blown my fuckin mind i play guitar myself and i think im good but holy shit dude how did you oh my god im stunned i just had to comment thank you so much for sharing

[@johnsnowie4157]

The shades or spirits of the deceased were known as gidim (gidim 𒄇) in Sumerian, which was borrowed as eṭemmu in Akkadian.

[@cremejockey8636]

@@Ximoron yea bro I'd be happy if I had the patience to learn 10 seconds of this song let alone the whole thing lol. You deserve the recognition from the band.
