This is so surreal seeing this on this channel in 2024. This was actually at a high school battle of the bands, circa 2009-2010. I think these guys were sophomores/juniors at the time. I know this because I also went there and played in a different band at this exact show haha (I was a senior). Sadly I am not the redhead that makes an appearance at 17:09. You're right that the singer does actually have a great voice - he was one of the lead singers in the school's choir which definitely suit his voice better. As for the 'with 5 more band practices and they could sound legit', I wanna say it was a pretty quick around time between when this event actually got confirmed and when the performance was, only a month or two, so finding bandmates, picking songs, and practicing was definitely a bit of a tight schedule all things considered. Was still a fun time and this brought back so many memories lol.

I'm going to say - this KZbin channel is the best out there for taking bands and musicians, that are stuck in intermediate, and looking to find out the details that will make them sound pro. There are so many minor flubs that bands can be ok with, and it ends up sounding like every other bar band. Great channel for bands starting out, gigging and want to get better, or pro and needing to reach that next level of sound. I've said it before, so here it is again, the attention to detail here is top tier. The only other person I know who gave songs this level of attention was my brother. And his teacher was a student of Segovia, so he had such a huge jump start on how to play.

Some of the missed riffs and things here and there wouldn’t be a problem if they sorted out the big things. If I’m watching a cover band I’m really not concerned that they didn’t get some of the detail right if the song was basically solid. I think my top 3 fixes would be to ditch the keyboard, get the guitarist a clean tone and work on the drums. Most of the other stuff would then be icing on the cake

Yeah if they're going to play songs like this, I'd even say the keyboard player should start to learn some basic rhythm guitar. It's not that hard to songs like this just to fill in the basics and thicken the sound so the main guitar doesn't end up sounding so thin. Then as you say with solid drums and the basics right, it wouldn't be a half decent cover.

Hey Mike, first of all I really appreciate your videos and advice for bands. Very cool indeed. So, I have a question with regards to singing. I am the lead vocalist in an 80's band (mostly new wave, rock, hard rock not really any hair metal). I find sometimes when I sing, I will be in the middle of a song, and I lose the key/melody I am supposed to be singing in. I have in ear monitors. I can hear the notes on the guitar, keyboards and bass but I know something is off. I try to get back on key/pitch and usually I can do it, but I am just not sure how this happens. It never happens when we rehearse. I have been performing live in different musical iterations since 1988. My hearing is pretty good so I am at a loss as to why this is happening and how I can minimize it. It does not happen a lot. And with some songs I have been able to sing to myself the key the tune is in while the band is doing the intro. I make it look like I am really into the tune when in actuality I am singing/humming the key to keep me focused and on track. Any insight would be great. thanks in advance for your support!

5:24 that is because pianos tune 4hz off from other instruments (444hz vs 440hz for concert A) and while most keyboards are set up to match other instruments, you can accidentally set them to piano tuning.

Why does no one seem to think you can use keyboards for metal? You definitely can, at least thrash metals riffs as I have. I dont think Ive seen anyone else do this so I may be the only one whos figured this out but you use your left hand as the "open strings" and your right hand for power chords and melody work. However Ive found its better to flip power chords around so the root is on top. Theyre closer and certain jumps in songs are easier, its a technique I got from blues piano. Play those backwards power chords with the root for bigger power chords, the one where the octaves are doubled. So essentially when you play riffs you get this back and forth play between the hands. The real secret is the speed in the left hand, imagine the picking of the open E in holy wars. How does the left hand emulate that? Tapping with one finger isnt good. Too much tension. Use two! Maybe more I have to mess with is more. Youd be surprised how fast you can get tapping with your index and middle or index and thumb. This isnt some ghetto technique either its a real thing. Look up "repeated notes on piano". It comes from classical of all genres I think and they can get very very fast and its harder for an actual piano because of the weighted keys too but I dont use weighted keys. So far I have bits and pieces of songs because Ive got ADHD or something but I have the intro of Master of Puppets, Im trying to learn some of Holy Wars. I can do some of Walk, and This Love by Pantera. I really want to get good at Raining Blood. You can definitely "gallop" with your left hand my right hand is actually very fast for some reason. But the song that made me figure all this out is Metal Storm/Face the Slayer. Idk why but I do have some of the riffs down comfortably. Theres only one issue Ive encountered so far. Which is that I dont practice enough. I swear I could play holy wars on a damn keyboard if I actually practiced enough. But back to my point. Yeah you can play metal on keyboards I just dont think anyone has really tried but the system Ive come up with has been very consistent.

@@TheArtofGuitar That is true, but you also did suggest that a second guitar be brought in instead of the keys towards the end. To me that implied that maybe you thought keys cant match the riffs or have the same energy? In all fairness though I dont really feel like there are lots of videos of keys playing metal riffs or something. Usually its some sort of abridged version of the riff or song. Im just antsy because I see a lot of negativity towards keyboards in metal meanwhile Ive slowly pieced together how to play these riffs note for note at speed. Its kind of like a "It was in front of you the whole time kinda feeling", but sadly I cant seem to find anyone else doing it.

I understand. I grew up on a lot of industrial bands so I know the power of the keys. I also collect vintage synths (small collection) so I know how gritty and gnarly they can sound. Love em!

When the drummer has his rack toms in different area codes, you know there’s trouble ahead.

2:30 Daniela from The Warning played Enter Sandman with just one guitar, and did also vocals, at the age 14, so it is possible.

Generally, if theres a tuning issue, and theres a keys player, the keys are right. Unless their analogue synths, or its a full semi out (where a transposes could have been left on). Electronic keys are normally in tune.

I love how you have to point out that a reaction video is not just you sitting there and watching the video lol. I’m like you have to add something to it. You can’t just play it and sit there watching and your reaction is your eyes moving or you smile occasionally

This band is like what would happen if a bunch of strangers from craigslist met to jam a Metallica song to see if everyone meshed.
