Les Paul's have that higher bite to the tone so pre-amping it and adjusting tone on the header fills in some low end without mudding the bite. Yeah he's got that down
I'm 55 now and I saw Slayer in '87 Reign in Blood tour when I was like 19. So the old guys of today were the original fans of these pioneering bands back then.
+Ako Tai Even though I am not far behind this guy in years I had to laugh my ass off to that one. You have to admit he rocks though and hopefully you will too when you become an old fart like us!
Love these comments about "old man" and "grandpa"...Like Metal was "invented" 15 years ago. This dude probably grew up listening to the metal pioneers. I wonder how many people commenting actually were around to listen to Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth and the like when these bands were the "new sound in metal" and were pretty fresh on the scene themselves. I'm 40 now and still love metal. If you think metal is a phase you go through and then you "grow up", you're wrong. Think about it...what the hell else are you gonna listen to??
I know this comment is 3 years old but it still rings as true as ever. I discovered metal when I was 10. I'm 26 now, it's still metal all the way and I doubt anything will change anytime soon. When I'm old I intend on being the the old guy pissing off the neighbours with loud music and it'll still be Slayer even though they're long gone :D Stay true to yourself dude!
Shit he was probably in his teens when Black Sabbath came into the scene and pioneered the entire genre. A friend of mine from the US got me interested in Metal when I was at least age 11 or 12. Then I found some of my mother's old tapes that were smuggled into my Homeland during the Communist Era, and I was amazed at what all I found. Now I'm almost age 20 and still listening
Guarantee the 99 dislikes are probably all guitar players who are younger and jealous of his chops and awesome tone, and gear. How about the 13,920 likes ????? Over a million views. Rock on Pal Andre.
Probably.. Sometimes when i see thumbs down on a really nice vid I really wonder who "those" ppl are. But as you said, theres alot of jelaous/ignorant people out there. Keep it Pal, i'ts awesome to see you play these tunes
Love it man..I just turned 45 and the last 30 years went by quick..I remember when Slayer was a new band and Megadeth and Metallica and anthrax..in 20 years..this is what I will look like playing metal on my guitar...we will all be there someday...can't stop time...long live metal🤘
Pal is one of my favorite guitar players on RU-vid. He always stokes me to go pick up my own ax and get playing. You nailed the tone on this one, thats a great slayer rhythm sound. Metal till we die. \m/\m/
+SalandFindles lol funny you say old man because if you think about how old this song is and sub from his rounded age he was probably rocking out to Stayer at 25-30 yrs old. Think about when you reach your 50's and you pull up at a stop light and this kids in the next car are like WTF that old dude is rocking out some Thrash or Death Metal lol.
This is one of the best covers I’ve ever seen even though it’s not 100% like the original. I hope you keep rocking, this is some serious talent here with years of experience!
One of the greatest things about music is no matter how old or young you are the music you love will always be a part of you.. keep shredding brother!!!
Old, pfft. This guy is one of the original Slayer fans, probably saw them as a kid. All of the original metal founders are in their 60s now or older. Ozzy, Tom Araya, Scott Ian, Metallica, Megadeth. If they aren't old, it's cause they sadly aren't with us anymore. A guy at my church has a t-shirt that says, "I may be old but I got to see all the cool bands."
I'll like this for you my man. I am 54 and have been playing for 38 years and...well us old folk can still fucking jam man!!! Keep on playing man. Thumbs up!!
I'm 39 and been jamming this song on guitar for decades, and will be doing so when I'm 60, 70 and to the box. 25 years of playing guitar I will play when I want how I want until I die.... Shred on my friend...
Omg I would have never guessed from looking at you, that you would enjoy playing metal. That was one of the coolest videos I have ever come across on youtube. You sir, are awesome!
WTF is up with everyone calling this guy “old man” and “grandpa”? They’re acting like metal has only been around for 15 years. This dude was probably born around 1956-1964 and became a fan of Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Anthrax, Exodus, Overkill, and Testament in the 1980s when those bands were in their prime. I doubt any of those people were even ALIVE when this guy became a fan.
Awesome, considering thrash is 30 years old, there will be a lot of head banging grandpa's. Truth be told, I'm 38 and love music from all era's. I bet this guy can play it all. Hard to believe how time just fly's by and age has no limit. Keep Jamming man.
+Eric Lasalle They will probably be listening to some kind of heavier dubstep, one which will be considered to be the metal of their generation. I can almost foresee this.
+Eric Lasalle I don't think so, look at it this way ever since it's inception Rock, Metal and all sub-genres that encompass them have stood the test of time despite not being the "popular" genre of music. In the 70s there was Disco, Rock and Punk prevailed. In the 80s there was New Wave and pussy Hair Metal, Rock and Real Metal prevailed. And ever since the 90s there's been an abundance of Pop Scrotums trying to push real music into obscurity, but we still outlast any pop star/group that tries to be the next big thing. What there will be is a generation of old people listening to Beiber and Minaj, while Rock and Metal still remains relevant to future generations, I just hope by that time people come to their senses and bring rock to the forefront where it belongs.
The algorithm has gotten us here for me to see this for the first time now in 2024!! 🤘🤘🤘all us old metal heads are "getting older," and that's what happens. But we are still forever fucking metal heads till the day we die!!!!!!!!!!
