It makes a lot of sense if you think about when heavy metal started (in the late '60s), and what it would have been influenced by. It's usually said to have evolved out of psychedelic/acid rock, which was kind of the successor to surf rock, once surf rock started to fade out of popularity. Psychedelic rock was (obviously) intended to accompany the use of drugs, but if you think about what psychedelic bands would have been listening to immediately prior to the genre's creation, it would have been surf rock and things like the Beatles. The Beach Boys definitely would have been taken into consideration too. So, modern metal retains some of those early characteristics and influences. Although, it has changed a lot over time too. There's still a lot of cross-pollination with hardcore punk. That's where metalcore comes from.
@@ITTAPUPU12 Bass players are the Ringo's of a band. Not appreciated by many but those who do appreciate the fuck out of them. Which is ironic considering he was the drummer and Paul was the bassist among other things but you get what I mean.
Generally a lot of the big guys wrote the heavey riffs on some beat up acoustic. You'd be surprised at how many of the heaviest riffs were written that way.
Surf guitarists = REVERB. Dick Dale is (still playing) a monster guitarist - and his relationship with Leo Fender led to the development of the high wattage amp.
Voivod and Celtic Frost have been doing jazz with distortion since the '80s, and it's great stuff once you get by the weird vocals (and to me, the weird vocals are all part of the weird package - I don't think I could enjoy this stuff as much without them!) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nYMJSC10-QA.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-98E3qXbIhCc.html
ok. maybe not a Jazz club. I don't listen to jazz, so I wouldn't really know about that. but the riffs sound weak without the distortion, so id still say coffee shop. like live music for a nice quiet date. lol
Yeah! When you strip away all the gear and distortion and fluff and tattoos, it's just raw music. And great music always sounds good, no matter what you play it on.
I was so dissappointed when getting my first guitar and amp. Everything sound like this clip. I even got hostile towards the music shop dude (I was 12), until he pushed the distortion button... 😂
It's really too bad Slayer never did a collab with Dick Dale, like Stevie Ray Vaughan did. I saw Dale live a long time ago, and he had every bit of the vibe. One of the best guitar showmen ever.
You're on to something here! Some of it sounds like 80s music and some like 60s surf guitar. I also like see attempts at doing dangerous things. The peeler to the wrist was awesome!
No. No it doesn't. You just thought it would sound hip to say that, just as you believe your pathetic nihilism and misanthropy are hip. No doubt that, as a total conformist, you've also vandalized your skin with multiple tattoos and, in general, present yourself to the world as a stinking slob. Pitiful. All of your conformed posturing is simply a cover for your deep unhappiness.
For some of the people below: 1) Saying that a genre sucks because when you play it using other type of sound (even tough the same instruments) its sound less impressive, is like saying a great painting would look awkward with the wrong palette of colors. That's because you throw the whole thing out of balance. A certain style was music was made to invoke a certain kind of feeling, and for this you get both the melody/rythm and the tone/feeling with which is played right. David Lynch or other auteurs need to film their sets in a certain light, invoking a certain atmosphere, otherwise it would be just plain images that would impress no one. 2)There's also about who's playing it and how. The same musical part can sound different if a different person plays it with a different kind of conviction, if music was all about getting the notes from a page in the right order, it would be pretty boring affair. Obviously this guy in the video doesn't take it very seriously, but if Metallica played on Kill 'em All or Slayer on Reign in Blood as dispasionately as him, they wouldn't impress many people. The same is for all kinds of genres, if a jazz player plays his music without the right conviction and getting the right tone it would sound like pointless cacophony. If a flamenco player would play it without the ''latino spirit'' it would seem disspasionate and wouldn't get people to dance. The music part+the right tone+the right playing spirit=Great music. The same music part+wrong tone+wrong playing spirit=Bad music. Music is not just what's being played, but how it's played and in order to create a specific mood. 3)I hear people playing metal music on piano or harp and it sounds very good. Why? Probably because the people there actually play it seriously and with heart.
Good points, you've also got to take the lyrics and singing style into account, that adds an entire new dimension, to further the film analogy it would mean that any auteurs film (I'll pick Dario Argento) would not only be filmed in an entirely different style of lighting but it'd also require muting all of the actors, imagine a film like Suspiria done in that way? It would go from a nightmare on screen to a bizarre surreal silent comedy!
Hot damn, that brings me back. To the time when my big brother was teaching himself all the epic metal solos, but without owning a electric guitar. Fun times.
Yeah, the Slayer ones are pretty good clean or distorted. The rest of them are fairly embarrassing. I kinda want to hear the Slayer riffs with some vintage 60's amp effects now.
Check out the likes of Link Wray and Dick Dale: these guys were among the earliest rockers to experiment with extreme rock and distortion, and a lot of their songs sit somewhere in this video's same strange grey area between surf rock and what would become heavy metal and punk. Back in the '80s, my friends and I - some of us traditional metal fans, some of us punk fans, others thrash and early black/death/doom metal fans - freely listened to classic surf rock, garage rock, and hard rock alongside thrash, metal and punk, and even where we didn't see eye to eye on later extreme music sometimes, we at least agreed that songs like Dick Dale's "Miserlou", the Trashmen's "Surfin' Bird", Link Wray's "Deuces Wild", Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode", or the Kinks' "You Really Got Me" were plenty metal or punk enough for any of us: it's where metal and punk were coming from all along. Of course, metal wouldn't split off into its own genre until Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, and the like came along, but metal was there, in spirit, in rock all along (and something similar could be said for punk and the Ramones: punk rock has been there since the beginning). Or, to think of it a different way, that classic rock from the 50's and 60's never really went away, the metal and punk guys have just added a little extra distortion to it over the decades, but extreme rock was there since the beginning, and never really fell out of fashion.
