www.guitarmessenger.com Adam D. and Joel Stroetzel of Killswitch Engage show you how to play 'Holy Diver.' For this and other Killswitch Engage features and lessons, log on to GuitarMessenger.com.
is no one gonna point out how fucking clean that solo was? i mean adam and joel are fucking sick guitarists but for both of them to knock out clean flawless solos like that on a whim for a random interview is very very impressive and takes real talent
I like how they split up the solo so that no one is the "lead" or "Rhythm" which is great so that me and my guitar pal don't have to fight over playing solos. This band is just so awesome, definitely on my top fives, maybe threes.
because i learned about it and my brothers endorsed by companies. depending on your level of endorsement you can be endorsed by caparison and use a non caparison guitar. its complicated stuff
the last tour they played he used a splawn nitro with sovtek kt88 tubes in it. and he says that its effing great. but joel takes like 4-5 amps out per tour i hear and usually picks 2 to use and the other ones are in case the other 2 blow up.
Im not a big fan of their music, but i can give them respect for being good guitarists, and i can also give them props for covering that song VERY good...., and these guys don't aren't "nerdy" at all...they just know how to have fun :D
true that buddy, i use to think killswitch was sorta girly way back, but the musicianship in the band and the song writing is fucking where its at. Now my favorite band, and favorite guys to cover on guitar. and i think i like your comment
hey guys i just posted some video responses and I play the solo and the little lick, and the harmony slow, and then fast (in seperate videos)and I actually play them right. so if u have trouble with the solo's i have joels fast, slow, and adams fast and slow and more... sorry for the spam
Actually, Caparison has been trying to make a guitar that is as light as the Parker. He's been using the Parker simply cause his back is fucked up. I'm pretty sure once Caparison figures out how to make his guitar light, he'll be using Caparison again.
yeah i mean im a cannibal corpse lover and death metal head period, i love the brutal shit. but as a guitar player ive kinda grown onto good song structure as long as it stays heavy while doing so im a big time fan of these dudes. nobody realizes what a genius these guys truely are
ya i want a caparison too, but i dont see why they would bend/COULD bend any higher, joels squeels are the best ive ever heard because he gets usually the bends on each, yet STILL bends so farrrrrr
this is odd,i looked at the dvd now, and uhh u are right, but when they do the 3rd fret g string squeel (g string in standard but f string in the tuning) they sound alot higher then the songs in C, yet there the same pitch..., weird
@Matthew Jones Lmao I don't even remember commenting on this. Looking back I have no idea what possible use I could have had for this in a real life musical context but that was fun to watch regardless haha. Thanks!
