This song is so heavy, that I showed it to the strongest guy in the gym. He put down his 100 pound dumbbells after listening and started lifting this song instead. Nicely done!

So I'm definitely not a pop fan, but this song undeniably has a catchy ass chorus, so I've listened to quite a few metal covers of it. This one tho, with that riffage and those insane vocals is by far my favorite now.

[@wesleyjones2961]

Yea chorus is catchy but the actual song it's self is horrible and lyrics make me cringe but like I always say music is subjective

[@EvelynSucksAtLife]

​@@wesleyjones2961 yeah it's mainly the lyrics for me.

[@ButterDawgDawgWitDaBudda]

​​​​@@wesleyjones2961 Yeah and that was the reason why I started to play guitar, there was a lot of cringe lyrics in the metal that I listen and I wanted to just make instrumentals of it. I think Nik also should do that for this song.

[@wesleyjones2961]

@@ButterDawgDawgWitDaBudda yea I definitely understand that modern metalcore has some cringe ass lyrics

[@marmarbinx3458]

Same boat, yo. Absolutely understand this so much. I'm not into pop, but I love metal covers of damn near every pop song I hear.

[@brianlimmy]

The drums stopping for that one bend at 7:58 hits so goddamn hard. Never forget that the 'guitar' part of 'Nik the funny guitar man' is actually goddamn legendary

[@LeGaLdeadparliament]

thank you, Nick. my best friend loved the heavy covers for pop music. he passed away a year ago and this type of songs brings me some warm memories about our friendship. stay safe!

Holy cow, those Humanity's Last Breath/Vildhjarta bendies at 02:00 ARE SICK AF

the second I heard those bends tossed in I was mind blown, who woulda thought you could just toss vild/hlb into a random song and make it sick, but tbf everything nik's been doing recently has been nasty in all the best ways so idk why I'm surprised anymore

[@halfheart3639]

The power of Nik and Johnny together definitely created something Unholy. Sick track

[@ari_wastaken]

They're unholy

[@forsakethelight]

You should do more collabs with Johnny. He's so talented and criminally underrated. I found Carcosa a little over a year ago and it's become one of my favorite bands.

[@johnnygotgrowls]

You’re very kind thank you!

[@GGshep]

I swear, Johnny goes from looking like a super chill dude to an absolute fucking menace everytime he starts screaming.

[@johnnygotgrowls]

[@kurtramos59]

I knew this song would be a banger if it turned into metal.

[@kennytieshisshoes]

Dude Johnny is my favorite deathcore vocalist and you both killed it on this.

It's good to see Nick actually getting subscribers, my first video I watched from him he only had 41% subscribed commonalities that 50 something

loved the more fleshed out part of the vocals! on the slipknot song it was short and crispy, but i'm glad we got a little more light on this here! Keep it up!
