The Black Dahlia Murder | Matriarch | Live | Thomann Sessions 

Here’s the playthrough for Matriarch by The Black Dahlia Murder. To all the TBDM fans: we are very sorry about the mistakes that were done in post production. We want to apologise to the band and everyone involved for then outcome. After having the approval of the band, here’s the revised and corrected video. Again, sorry and have fun!

Brian riding that flying V like he about to head to a quidditch game.

I think Brian is one of the most underrated rhythm guitarists, I've always admired his precision and song writing ability.

R.I.P Trevor. So consistent of a band . No bad album

Brian's the Ron Swanson of brutal metal.

Man, Brandon has buttery smooth soloing. Brian writes the most tasty riffs. Legendary band.

I never would have thought 4 years later Brian would be the lead singer and Trevor wouldn’t be with us anymore. RIP Trevor Strnad today marks 1 year since you left us. 🖤

Brian is.... kmac's true form?

Brian is hands down the best rhythm guitarist in metal! A true Riff Lord!

Brutality, tone, excellent engineering, decibels, metal, crunch, precision.

Brian just shreds. He's the foundation of the band. Dude is a solid workhorse that just shreds his face off.

Brandon is surely amazing but Brian is just the key to TBDM sound he has been creating and chugging these brutal riffs since the begining.

brian looks like he's trying to keep from shitting his pants the whole video. Such an awesome video

Incredibly difficult licks just drip off Brandon's fingers, and HIS VIBRATO?!? Brian is a true riff-master

Brian is God tier level when it comes to rhythm guitar. Mans has been writing and performing music for the same band for like 20 yrs. His dedication and love shows. 🖤🤘🏻

3:13 Brian's unbroken, soulless stare is really unsettling...

I love that one of the most replayed parts of this video is just brian talking about peavey😂

That solo...Brandon is too clean.

Brandon is amazing! So much talent! His way of playing is magical.

BRIAN = the BRAIN behind TBDM

Brian isn't actually sitting down, he's just in an ultra power stance the whole time |m| 0_0 |m|

The solo is stuck in my head.....totally face melting

i will never understand how brian downpicks at 240bpm so effortlessly, what an incredible and underrated rhythm guitarist

Brandon Ellis is such a killer. My new favorite guitarist at the moment

These dudes just keep proving why they're my favorite DM band. Absolutely incredible guitar work from these lads.

I remember I first got into the black dahlia murder when they released nocturnal and this shit right here is precisely why. Nothing is simple. These guys put together the most insane funky sounding riffs. The precision in the rhythm is platinum tier

TBDM has some of the best rythm and lead work ive heard in a long time.

brian's right hand is so smooth, he barely seems like he's trying but precise as a robot

I've started learning their songs...Brian's part on every song is high key way more fun to play. Dude really makes the songs sound more interesting. I love this band

Brandon's solo is just perfect OMG

i love this band so much

Peavey has been my go to for years. Beautiful playing once again from king brian and brandon.

Love brian, always been one of my favourites.

Brian is an amazing composer. He would’ve wrote some amazing music if he was around in Mozart’s time

Amazing.

still the best piece of music on youtube

Turn the drums down a little. We came to hear the guitars

I love that nobody's forcing them to play so complicated riffs, but they still do it cause they love playing like that

Been a hardcore TBDM fan since Miasma and it always shows how amazing and talented every single member is where every album they keep getting better.. and better. I know Brandon is the newest member but his play style is wild and amazing. They had the old lead guitarist from Arsis for one album, but Nightbringer is a masterpiece of an album.

I know quite little from this band, but off the bat these creatures rock. Can't wait to see them live. Shout out from Houston

The Peavy 6505+ is my absolute favorite amp!! *Hell yeah!!*

Brian really out here doing the chad spread.

Saw them live 3 weeks earlier on my birthday, one of the best days of my life. Pure ecstasy

the weirdest way of playing a V since The Kinks

I have been a hardcore fan of BDM since their live show with Cannibal Corpse in Ottawa Canada way back when Unhallowed was first released, and I honest to God get choked up every time.

Brian is one of 2 secret ingredients. I’ve always said it. Much love Trevor. Some OGs

RIP Trevor

I fucking love Brian. what a lad.

Always great watching BDM anything. They never disappoint

Love these guitars. Amazing looking instruments

What an insane performance, trying to learn this song by observing how they play it at like half speed haha and I keep being amazed by their cleanness :0 Imagine how much time and discipline you must dedicate to be able to play like these guys... TBDM kicks ass

Brandon is amazing and Brian is still super under rated as a player and writer.

Brian, the total pro.

This is so good that it almost feels like it's edited These guys are the real deal

I come back and enjoy locking eyes with Brian all the time 3:13

Love it when I see a play through video and the solo is nailed pretty much note for note, especially that tapping section. I know these solos are hard, but that’s what makes it more satisfying to see.

Man these guys put on hands down the best concert I've ever been to, the mosh pit to Deathmask Divine was complete insanity

I’ve always been a fan of their albums, But I’ve never seen them play their songs. Dear god these guys are riff machines! Awesome video, this showcases their talents even more.

one of my favorite bands of all time. just bought one of their re-release t-shirt’s to calibrate 20 years since unhallowed. where does time go

3:14 Gives me nightmares... I also like the part with the guitars. What's your favourite part? //Andy

Awesome! Love these guys

Brian is a beast of a rhythm player. His postures real weird though, but if it works it works i guess haha

Lmao Brian at 3:15

How fitting, just ordered the Peavey 6505+ in the background today !

God I love TBDM. Own all their shit. Fully purchased. Nothing pirated, all legit. Love it.

It's funny how things can make a full circle. I dreamed of being this good at guitar in High School. I Practiced for years. Finally got to a point that I could hold my own and was supper motivated to continue playing and to get better. Then I met a girl.... Dated her for 2 years then got married. All while slowly loosing the motivation to practice guitar. 4 years of being married, she leaves me. By that point I had sold all my guitar stuff and had not played guitar in at least 3 years. Now I don't have the girl, the motivation, the discipline, or my own personnel best version of skill I worked towards. I'm living the same life I was living then. Except instead of school, it's work instead.

Great duo. Super focus Brandon and good job Brian

That is amazing that they can do that live & in sync with each other.

Brian has always reminded me of Garfield. Awesome riffing here.

Both great guitar players that looks so comfortable doing what they do!

They will always be my favorite metal band.

My bands like “ we need to sound more like Black Dahlia”. I watch this and say “yeaaaaaaaa no.” I don’t have time to be this good 🤣

Brandon solos are effort less and full of feeling. Brian is a legend at this point. BDM producing their best music 15 years in.

The most impressive thing to me about Brandons playing is honestly his bend control

That distorted single line Funeral Thirst riffs sounded soooo gnarly, need a full playthrough like that.

One of my favorite bands

I get goosebumps watching these legends shred. Their riffs are not easy to play.

Such effortless mastery. Hope we get to see these guys out again soon...

Brian is the genius of songwriting and one of the most talented rhythm guitarists! Love to know that I told it to him a couple of years ago:)

thank you for this~!!! pretty cool

Brian's face kills me 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Peavey is (metal) life!

My best guess on the pedals: - BOSS TU-3 Tuner - MAXON OD808 Overdrive - MXR M101 Phase 90 - BOSS NS-2 Noise Suppressor Not sure whose board they showed though.

Why do I listen to the Black Dahlia Murder? For the brutality.

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen in my life!! And I've seen a lot of fkn cool things.

These boys shred so well together!

Sic ass band, sic ass song, sic ass players. Love these dudes....🤘

I love how brian just stares into your soul towards the end of the playthrough

Thank you guys! Superb song!!!!

This is why I'm subscribed to this channel.

Love you guys

i would love to see this song turned into jazz lounge music Lyrics and all

This dudes solos are fucking nuts. One of the gnarliest shred albums I've heard in a really long time...maybe ever...

Love TBDM sooo much!!!

That band got me into heavy shred music. Much love

sick sick sick! hope TDBM lives on for a long long time!

This was pretty amazing to watch.

Brian holds his guitar lower than my will to live lol

LMFAO at Brian's 'Dwight Schrute' Metal face @ 3:14

3:13 when Brian looks into your soul lmao
