*Trivium is 2/2 for straight bangers for this new album so far* *EDIT: Tabs for THIS song and my other covers are live for my Patrons: **www.patreon.com/NikNocturnal*

[@thedefiant6244]

Nik Nocturnal your too good🤘

[@mikepshena]

matt heafy just released a vid showing how to play it haha

[@chriscollins9436]

You the best Nick

[@NeonEmpireOfficial]

Awesome stuff as usual Nik!! :D

[@fernandalmfl]

Very nice!!

[@NivanSharma]

You’re too late Matt Heafy already made a cover of this song smh... 😉

[@aycaramba4910]

Damn you beat me to it! 😅

Ahh GG

this cover is better then the original ^^

All this time I thought it was the stock market graphics. But now I know the truth.

[@saltyplayer491yt5]

this man literally took under 7 hours to learn and cover this song to 100% Nik, i love you

[@nadavlevi2269]

And shoot the video, record the guitars, edit and upload to KZbin

[@DARRENC910]

He had some time to get used to the starting riff. But fair play.

[@NikNocturnal]

[@8593mikex]

He's pretty good. I learned this song in 2 hours thanks to this video and the 1 existing tab out there.

[@HectorReyes-lm7xp]

I remember when slipknot released WANYK in 2019, there some covers in youtube just a few hours after it was released, some ppl were using the leaked songs to learn it

[@TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

It's actually mind boggling how fast Nik can learn these songs, he never ceases to impress

[@YoungBloodyBlud]

music theory does that for ya

[@NivanSharma]

Archetype it’s not really music theory it’s ear training

[@mrgreenfr6216]

@@YoungBloodyBlud nothing to do with music theory honestly... He has just some great ears learning training. And for beginner guitarist like myself who tried my absolute best to learn music theory for the last years, it didn't helped me at all... It made me go slower... Many years wasted for nothing because I don't remember shit, now that I just try to do the song that I like by watching tabs, tutorial... I slowly begin to understand my guitar more than ever rather than with all those years wasted with music theory... I can finally really learn guitar and now I can finally play some song and solo. Knowing what's the name of which chord or key isn't going to help you learn a song, I don't say it's bad, if you understand how does it work then it's good, you can work easily on making your own song... But that won't help you be good at guitar... I slowly begin to understand which finger on which fret on which string does what. Something that music theory never helped me to understand and that I never understood anyway. In my opinion,you should learn the basis of music theory at the begining, but you shouldn't waste your time trying to understand everything... Just go with your pass and it will be ok, you will probably manage to do it one day. Then when you begin to be more confident with your instrument, learn the theory! But gate keeping other by scaring them because of how complex and long learning music theory is... No good men

Kick ass dude!

[@cryptic3420]

Erik Gomez probably an 8/10 for me it was good but not INCREDIBLE

[@NikNocturnal]

A good day for music

[@panterarocks9326]

I think Trivium should make a cover of this song. Sounds like their style

[@wardkdouglas]

OH MY GOD youre soooooo funny.

[@JassyPabst]

Haha what a funny coincidence that your new cover is by Trivium 🤔😜🤘 rocking! 🔥🔥🔥

[@NikNocturnal]

Thanks JJ!

[@samoclese6435]

Crazy to think I saw a comment on the music video saying "Now just to wait for Nik Nocturnal to do a cover" and in literally less than 24 hours the big man pulls through. Excellent job my dude.

[@nfsizmm8703]

Why you kinda late this time? There is some dude on the internet name matt heafy release this cover a couple of hours early than you

[@heyithinkitsfucking]

NFSizm M yeah sorry but unsubscribe

[@anthonydaher]

Someone didnt get the joke

[@Edward-we9dl]

I don't get how can people don't get the joke.

0:47 this riff, THIS RIFF IS STRAIGHT BANGER!!!!

[@blue0035]

Matt called you out in his stream earlier 😂😂

[@lemi6736]

Any video of that? :D

[@benjamingagnon7486]

@@lemi6736 yeah 7:26 from matt heafy how to play what the dead man say

[@bradk6170]

Yeah he did lol

[@nicholashart2323]

I dont think he called him out. He winked at Nik because im pretty sure Nik put a flash of his angry face and then a flash of a relieved face after the solo. So i think that was Matt's way of saying sorry bud lol

[@NikNocturnal]

I saw,

[@bradk6170]

" hey nic nocturnal" - matt k. Heafy

[@tfwnoyandere]

ten second pause

[@willgarrison4959]

Without a doubt one of the coolest, if not the coolest, riffs they ever came up with

[@guitarist4life00]

Matt even shouted you out today during his "How to Play" video

[@coolhomedog]

When the album drops he will have learned the whole thing before I’m done listening to it

[@alexferguson5346]

This album is going to force me to buy a 7 string and I'm not even angry

[@TheRomanoLV]

Dead men whisper to me at night... "Wash your Goddamn hands"

[@mickjager]

I give him 24 hours to learn the entire album when it comes out

[@cryptic3420]

Mickert this will definitely be possible since he learned the entire slipknot album last year in under 24 hours

[@MelloTLK]

And look what happened

[@liltarantula2275]

damn, do u know how much u have to fw a song to cover it right away & still do all the headbanging & grooving shit? so much talent

[@braddary6556]

amazing cover bro...I can’t even wrap my mind around how many hours this took.. people only see the finished product.. but they fail to realize how much effort it took to achieve this massive undertaking.you are extremely good at what you do..and I commend you for your time and effort.. you easily outplay the vast majority of most guitarist that are on the scene now.i only hope that the exposure that you get via you tube lets the rest of the world know that there are still amazing guitarists among us... ROCK ON MY FRIEND.ROCK ON🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@Dsaubt]

Damn you just got a sub. Trivium is still making awesome music all these years later. And you killed this.

[@slamdmkv]

Does trivium know about the new song yet?

"No one plays until Nik Nocturnal plays"

That took you long enough - but you know that, I commented on your last video. And jokes aside, I always look forward to your Trivium covers. It's as if you hear licks and riffs I don't get, and it's a Joy getting to hear them

[@NikNocturnal]

Thank you!

[@matejgligorevic2632]

Fantastic cover. Tone is amazing, playing is crystal clear, and you make it look fun to play!

[@MegaJotta]

That main riff in 0:47 is the SAME like Matt Heafy's song for Shroud. Exactly the same! Maybe was a spoiler and nobody noticed 😐
