The Killers - Mr. Brightside (In the style of Avenged Sevenfold) feat.

[@PascalRoss-y1i]

We've all been here before lol, now we back again, sounds like the classic 2007 Album.

[@MarkRinaldi-b6w]

@TruckDriver-d3f The harmonies, the vibes, all classic.

[@PascalRoss-y1i]

@@MarkRinaldi-b6w Took time to watch the perform at a private party. Time of my life.

[@supertailsgaming]

@CarolinaElmasI wonder who did drums

[@kunkleeeeeeee77]

This one song is better than the entire "Life Is But A Dream" album.

[@supertailsgaming]

@@kunkleeeeeeee77 I didn’t listen to that album fully yet, but listening to some of the song, the sound is very far from where they were during the earlier times

[@ente-ente-ente-gans]

The harmonies, evil laugh, whispering, it has everything

[@sledgerivera3298]

the dueling guitars ^m^

[@1kTroopKoopas]

The nasal voice

[@xpirate16]

I've never really listened to Avenged Sevenfold, what are some of their songs that really incorporate those kind of harmonies?

[@Napalm30308]

@@xpirate16 I haven't listened to a lot of their newer stuff, but some of the ones I can think of off of the top of my head are Afterlife, Almost Easy, Nightmare, Beast and the Harlot, Bat Country, and M.I.A.

[@1kTroopKoopas]

And I've never listened to the killers but this was awesome. By the way the latest Avenged Sevenfold album is kind of a big change from previous ones. Not necessarily in a bad way but it's like they took their own band's concepts and took them to the extreme on it. So, probably good for fans who want to go deeper but not the best sampler as an intro to the band.

[@Linkaara]

Forgot to do the M Shadows "holding a watermelon" hands gesture lol

[@M.I.Cynical]

how is this not pinned 😆

[@bamers404]

*invisible* watermelon to be more precise 😂

Same problem.

[@JFirecracker]

This feels so much like self-titled album era A7X, I'm _in love._

[@GigglebunsUV]

yeah it feels like its specifically taking inspiration from almost easy

[@Naturalvelocity]

Nah it sounds like City of Evil to me

[@sammae4254]

​@@GigglebunsUV that song and this one could be part of the same story 👀

[@TheIronWarlockXIII]

This feels like something inspired from Nightmare. Loving it.

[@JFirecracker]

@@GigglebunsUV I _def_ hear the Almost Easy in the verse rhythm line

[@lich501st]

Sounds like something straight off the self-titled 2007 album. God, this hit all forms of nostalgia for me 😅

[@son8I7]

Its really not...

[@oinnsnroinsson9291]

I got self titled vibe too

[@GavinCoronado]

I got more city of evil vibes, the into sounds like it could be on self titled tho

[@ONCLR]

The drumming at some points is almost exactly the same as in Almost Easy so I kind of understand saying that it sounds like Self Titled but it also has some Nightmare vibes.

[@beagleray7988]

nah, if y'all know a7x this is ripped straight of the self-titled. Honestly sounds very close to Almost Easy

[@taynanvasconcelos7392]

I noticed you used "Almost Easy" as the basis for the adaptation and goddamn, what a spot-on choice! This sounds amazing!

[@aaronsmith7143]

I kept anticipating the almost easy chorus lol.

[@DanielSmith-pw9ws]

Sameee ​@@aaronsmith7143

[@supertailsgaming]

It’s a banger, absolute banger

[@Bigpenparker]

I noticed this too perfect vibe for a song like this it’s so dramatic and so powerful like almost easy

[@supertailsgaming]

@@Bigpenparker the singer guy does really well with his M Shadows impression, 10/10, beautiful and glorious

GODAAAAMMMMMIIIIITTTT, MY BRO STEVIE IS FUCKING KILLING IN THE GUITARS, FEELS LIKE GATES REALLY WROTE THOSE GUITARS ARRANGMENTS

[@tastefulsubstance]

Especially that solo😫

[@Crystal_Abbott-jn6xs]

So much talent.❤

[@SupraViperhead]

He's in a band, but nobody listens to it.

[@HorsesArePeople2]

Because maybe he doesn't want to do live performances? He probably makes more money off of KZbin

[@maximem.ste-marie3578]

because he makes more money that way ?

[@DenethorDurrandir]

Because who gets to do that isn't about talent but luck. You just have to get the right opportunities at the right time and nail them.

[@HorsesArePeople2]

@@DenethorDurrandir Not only that, but the actual cost of touring is huge. You have to hire so many people it's actually insane.

[@ajd3391]

You really nailed the note and inflection choices M Shadows would write for the vocals. The solos were perfect Synyster Gates and the harmonization was classic. You guys nailed this.

[@SubliminallyMischievous]

I don't know, I swear I heard a little bit of The Rev may he 🤘🏼*thrash in pieces* 'eat it eat it eat it'🤘🏼

[@GameTimeWhy]

Except this guitarist can actually play the solos unlike synyster.

[@ajd3391]

@GameTimeWhy ive seen a7x several times and they've been tight instrumentally every time. Standing and playing at a live show is way different than sitting and having infinite takes in the studio like stevie G was. Comparison you made isnt really valid imo.

[@GameTimeWhy]

@@ajd3391 I've also seen them multiple times. He's a terrible guitarist who bailed on literally every solo. Mike Portnoy was the best part of seeing them live.

[@DragonTigerBoss]

​@@GameTimeWhyPetrucci vs. Gates guitar duel when?

[@Replicaate]

This is like injecting the year 2007 into my ear canals directly.

[@thericos7960]

So cool to have Mr Steve T in a more "serious" performance! Sooooo gooooood

[@moo2k4]

The way this sounds like it could have fit right in on City of Evil is impressive.

[@Maniacman2030]

I dunno, made me think of Critical Acclaim, like something after Almost Easy or Afterlife, but I can see where you're coming from.

[@Michael97Moore]

More of a almost easy vibe

[@RubiBloo]

​@@Maniacman2030it's almost a medley of both albums I'd say. A lot of self titled but the hook and chorus reminds me of something from beast and the harlot or seize the day

[@AndrewMilnerMusic]

Yep, you nailed the vibe! It kinda reminded me of City Of Evil and their self-titled one. Especially during the verse, it was very reminiscent of Almost Easy. Banger!

[@Palmer2189]

There are two reasons I watch these videos. 1) The music is great. 2)The facial hair is even better.

[@Zulooth1]

I always get the feeling that Captain Hook is singing.

[@PatrickWDunne]

The "let me goooooo" part was so on point

[@arthurdurham]

This was extremely accurate to peak A7X era; everything from the melody changes, the nasal singing and ad libs, dual soloing, and halftime bridge.

[@codykoehn9692]

This went WAY harder than I expected!!! Loved it!!!

[@dylananderson310]

More sweep picking, MORE HARMONIES

[@_.Mercury._]

I definitely felt like there needed to be some sorta slow arpeggiated lead during the pre chorus.

[@jameswallace3439]

[@Relicanth]

One of my favorite songs. Gotta say, this new twist is kinda SICK. Dude, you nailed it!

[@Braddicusfinch]

This is legit my favourite one of these you've done, it just ticked all the boxes 😂 Genuinely had a smile on my face when the chorus kicked in

[@DavidL-op5sz]

You are such a chameleon, it is unbelievable. This could absolutely pass as a legit A7X cover. Your ability and intuition to naturally hit each bands quirks and traits in a fluid way is so damned impressive.

[@evilgeek8417]

Anything Bowie in style of Korn, or vice-versa. I've noticed that they have similar singing patterns.

You have no idea how many times I've looped this part

[@Theodax1]

The fact that this works as well as it does is just MIND-BLOWING!!! You BOTH absolutely NAILED everything on this song to the freaking wall! Your SPOT-ON impression of M. Shadows voice is fantastic. The drum tones are perfect as well, the evil background laughs, the sick double-bass runs are completely amazing! It's great to see Stevie T rip right through this song. That multi-colored guitar is just GORGEOUS!!! If we weren't actually SEEING you both shred this song out in the video, I'd be hard pressed to say that it WASN'T actually A7X covering this song themselves!

[@will345davis]

So I love both of these featured bands, but man, I couldn’t tell you which version I love more. This is spot on.

[@Blackfoxloki]

as someone who's listened to the Nightmare album more times than I can remember, this was so good that I genuinely forgot it was a imitation when I tabbed out, you sounded so much like M. Shadows it's crazy. ‍🔥

[@obiwanjacobi]

That was frikkin' glorious. Thanks!

there are alot of great covers on youtube, and im not being bias because a7x is an all time fave of mine. But this cover, this, masterpiece, will outlast the test of time... and it couldnt have been done better by any other 2 people. live long and rock hard out hard fellas!
