[Hannibal Mannibal]

You are quite frankly the most horrible sounding guitar player I have ever heard in my life. I have heard farts that sound better than what came out of your amplifier.

I highly suggest you commit suicide. I'm not ******** joking.

haha calm down. Let me see you play something. Show me up, then you can talk all the s**t you want. I know my arpeggio sweep on relations sounded terrible. I'm not very good at sweep picking. I've been playing a total of 4 years including the year and a half that I gave up and let my guitar collect dust.

I really want to be in a band. I was in one in high school, but it fell apart. I live in Corinth, TX so if anyone needs a guitar player I'm ready. I'll be sure to pm you, however its a lot easier to just subscribe to my youtube channel.


Thanks everyone for the comments.

One last bile boiler before I hit the hay...

Some of you have been fooled, and, herr OP, you've been caught. Don't try to fake out musicians. We can tell when you're mixed out of recordings and only pretending to play along with them. As a matter of fact, of the three that I listened to, only in Gap, the most simple of them all, could I even pick you out of the mash. In the other ones, you just moved your hands strangely, and for a while I thought your camera was just lagging, but I realized quickly that you weren't even moving your hands RIGHT. Did you have your amplifier on? If you did, you might have noticed that you weren't doing very well and might have refrained from posting them on a forum that isn't COMPLETELY populated by mindless idiots who also can't play their instruments.

Simple lead lines, like those, are not impressive. If you ARE going to "play" them, PLAY THEM, and if you are REALLY going to play them, do it with your goddamn instrument in tune with the song!

Personally, I suggest that you DON'T cover anything else. I suggest that you practice, a LOT, and come back when you have something interesting, impressive, and, most of all, YOU to show us.

I was playing along with the songs. My amp was on. I recorded myself with the Digitech Jamman Pedal since I don't have an audio interface for my computer. I recorded the video with my laptop's webcam. BOTH OF THESE I DID AT THE SAME TIME. If you notice I step on the pedal at the beginning and end of each video. I added the music and my recordings together with windows movie maker. I have the tabs so you can actually see what I'm playing if you want them since you don't believe me. I know I'm not that good, but I am actually playing. You can hear my mistakes in the songs. You said you couldn't hear me... well there is no outro solo for relations. What I'm playing is not in the original song and neither was the sweep. I If you listen to the original songs you can clearly differentiate my guitar from the music. All the songs I'm playing I got the tabs off of Japan's Nico Nico Douga. The guitarists on there are amazing. Saying that I'm terrible I can accept, but to say that I'm not even playing I can't.

Well here are the tabs:

On certain songs I play a little differently than the tabs in order to make it easier for me.
Should I turn down the song and turn my recording up?

[TheAxeKnight]

I gave you another listen, this morning, watched very carefully, and took a look at the original songs. Where it seemed to me the first time that you'd mixed someone else playing in over your video, I noted this time that I could actually hear your strings clicking at the beginning and, after figuring out exactly how much lag your videos had, it was clear that you weren't, in fact, faking it. If I had looked at Idolm@sturb8or, I definitely wouldn't have made that accusation.

So disregard that bit, I suck cocks.

The fact remains, however, that you've got a lot of work to do. It would behoove you to NOT play those songs your wrong way to make it easier on yourself. I use the Demosthenes principle, when practicing. Once you've got something down, you do it with rocks in your mouth. That is to say - try to make it more difficult, not easier, if you do anything, otherwise you just look like a nerd who uses too much distortion to cover his sometimes still apparent flaws. Things you should do follow.

1. Turn down your SKULL CRUSHING DISTORTION. It's difficult to tell what you're doing over what I assume is a BOSS Distortion pedal at around three o clock. You don't sound like you, you sound like a poorly designed box. Take some of that box out of the mix.
2. Practice it like it is. You'll find that, with a little practice, these "amazing" japanese guitarists REALLY aren't as impressive as you think they are, and the task will seem far less daunting.
3. The musician's forum is one of three forums on this site that isn't completely dominated by anime nerds. Good job setting yourself up to get raped by Murphy's law. Anime themes STILL don't impress us. Demonstrations of your own compositional talent and technical skill impress us, and this didn't really do either. Better luck next time.

Thanks for taking another look and for giving advice. I know I need a lot of practice. The only reason I decided to put myself on youtube was because my cousin asked me too so he could show his friends. He lives in a different state than me.

As for the advice:
1. I will turn it down. I used BOSS Distortion on unnamed world and Gap and BOSS MetalZone on relations and Rasen. Yes they were both at about 3 o clock.
2. I will. Keep in mind that I've been playing 4 years including the year and a half that I didn't play at all and let my guitar collect dust. So really I've only been playing for 2 and a half years.
3. I wasn't trying to impress anyone with the anime covers. I realized there are so few tabs for anime songs and well Japanese songs in general so I decided to do covers and share the tabs that I found as well as tab some of them out myself.

haha calm down. Let me see you play something. Show me up, then you can talk all the s**t you want. I know my arpeggio sweep on relations sounded terrible. I'm not very good at sweep picking. I've been playing a total of 4 years including the year and a half that I gave up and let my guitar collect dust.

I don't play metal. I don't sweep. I don't do it because, while some people prefer it and that's cool for them, I prefer something called MELODY.

You don't think any of those songs have melody?
