[repcak]

Mitch has the right philosophy!

most guitarists forget that you make music through your four fingers on your left hand and your two fingers on the right hand, which hold the pick (abstract) - music is made by your finger movement, not about your equipment.

a friend is buying always the best equipment he can get. his first guitar cost over 1,300Euros and his first amp was a marshall 100watt.
my first guitar 250euro, first amp 200€ and i'm still the better guitarist :p

equipment doesn't make you better, practise does


NP: Ravel - Bolero

[I'm Charming]

What's so hard to grasp?

A better amp sounds better. Therefor more enjoyable to play.

A nicer guitar plays, feels and sounds better. Therefor more enjoyable to play.

[repcak]

more enjoyable, yes! But it doesn't make you a better guitarist

[MRDuCran]

Haha I know someone who's like your friend repcak. He's had 3 guitars, has a full keyboard and now has a full £500+ TAMA drum kit. I'm better than him on all 3 instruments and all my equipment probably comes under £1000.

Gtr 1 and amp - £100
Gtr 2 - £300
Gtr 3 - £300
KORG PX4 - £100

There, £900, and that's not a lot really.

[repcak]

:lol:
nice to know, that we have the same kind of friends :D

what kind of guitars do you have exactly?

[MRDuCran]

1st - some crappy strat copy
2nd - BC Rich Warlock, 2003 Body Art series - Fleshring
3rd - Ibanez RG770, which I'm using now to record a Satch song.

[gillygan]

I have excellent tone. A few days ago I cracked the secret to tone. lol. I lowered the gain just a bit, lowered the dept of the distortion and raised the treble a tad.


I hate playing with lots of gain.

I also hate scooping the mids. I think the mids add chunk to the sound.

I usually do
Bass: 5
Mids: 7
Treble: 9
Gain: 4

[MRDuCran]

Alexi only has his gain on around 4-7 too, you can hear it on say that intro riff to "Downfall", or the single note in "Children of Decadence" or the "Children of Bodom" riff.

Also he has higher mids and lower bass. At least that's what it sound like on Follow the Reaper.

[repcak]

i don't even have "mids", i only have a contour... or is it the same?

His Follow the Reaper tone had no bottom end. Hate Crew Deathroll has the greatest guitar tone I've ever heard - nice and trebly but chunky with plenty of mids.

same thing.

I hate no mids.

Yeah I think HCDR has the best guitar tone too.

[repcak]

for me FTR has the best guitar tone

[Moses]

I think HCDR has a pretty good tone. I still don't like the fact that it's pretty much distortion all the time, it ruins the dynamics for me, even if it's the kind of band CoB is.

[repcak]

omg... i'm so stupid.

i said that the DXMG is about 465€, but its the price in germany... in austria its 521€ :upset: fcuk it!!
i think i need more money than i thought at first... ****

Yea that's always dissapointing... Have anything you can sell to get more money fast?


And I agree, the tone on Hatecrew Deathroll was very very good.

[repcak]

i have money... enough money to get two guitars, but i don't want to pay more than 500.

guitar 521€ + digitech RP-80 72€ ... 600€ ... maybe i can get them for 550€

[Forlorn Hope]

Where are you getting them? Local guitar shop or an online store like Musiciansfriend or something?

[Corkofski]

http://www.thomann.de

free international shipping.

[Corkofski]

http://www.thomann.de/at/search_dir.html?sw=DXMG&x=0&y=0

in austrian...

[repcak]

its a shop near vienna, they have almost all guitars there!
musik-produktiv (http://www.musik-produktiv.at/home/home01e.asp/sid/!18121995)

i will try to trade down the price.... when i have to pay 550€ its ok.

@corkofski: i never played the DXMG before, so i first want to hold it in my hands and the second thing is that i'm not a big fan of online-stores and shipping.

[repcak]

now i have a plan... when they will show me the DXMG and say that its 520€ i will say that i have seen this guitar for 470€ on the internet... if they won't believe me they will check it out and then they have to go down with the price :D

[Forlorn Hope]

Sounds like a good plan. Your currency must be about the same as here in America, My DXMG was also about 470 on Musiciansfriend.

[repcak]

1Dollar = 0.78Euro
1Euro = 1.277Dollar

its not exactly the same... though 1euro should be 1dollar... well that was the plan of the politics

[Forlorn Hope]

1Dollar = 0.78Euro

It would be so much easier if all countries used the same currency. I wished I lived in Europe somewhere. Seems so much cooler than lame America.

[repcak]

why do you think europe is better than america?

[Forlorn Hope]

why do you think europe is better than america?
Well, just seems generally cooler. Not to mention our president isnt the sharpest tool in the shed, and we keep getting into other countries business. And about all of the middle east hates us :lol:
I don't know, I just think it would be cooler to live somewhere in Europe, like England or Finland :cool:

You sound like a thirteen year old psuedo-intellectual. First of all, the middle east doesn't hate the United States, certain groups do. Second of all, it shows that you're doing a great job of lumping the middle east together, which is a very sad trend in many Americans. Can I ask you a question? Do you think Middle Eastern people think Britain and France are the same?

If you don't like living in the U.S. that's fine, but atleast make a good arguement.

[MRDuCran]

Not really, repcak is a cool guy and I've never gotten any bad vibes from him. The only time he seems down is if he's stressed about guitar playing.

Adam, that recording was pretty cool. I respect the fact you actually play the verse how it's supposed to be played as opposed to just strumming chords. I remember learning that part a few years back and it's much more fun to play that way.

I don't think that Metal Injection video was recent, I think it was from around 2003, but I'm not positive.

No matter which you choose, they all just cator to their respective special interest.

I don't think I played the verse 100% right, but pretty close. I played the same measure (or is it two?) over again till the last one which is different. In the actual one, I think it changes a little each measure. Either way its better than strumming chords. I'd like to get better at fingerpicking so I can incorporate it into my own songs.

[MRDuCran]

Yeah it does change everytime and there's 3 different ones but at least you learnt one of them, and you got the notes out which is good.

i would like to know how the intro of kalmah - the blind leader is played... it sooo f*cking great!!

I just recorded Lashed to the Slave Stick:

This is one of those times when I wished I had a POD.

Also did the Hate Me melody:

And the Glass Prison by Dream Theater:

http://media.putfile.com/TGP

There's a "riff game" in the guitar forum so I've been participating in that. It's been fun so far.

[repcak]

Lashed to the Slave Stick - 9/10 (the pitch harmonics (?) weren't perfect)

Hate Me - 8/10 (i know you can do it better, Mitch ... i don't know whats wrong: the tone? more practise? sloppy?)

Glass Prison - 10/10 (its like on the record, perfect!! :thumb: )


you're getting better each month on guitar... your playing is fantastic, respect!

Yeah the pinchs weren't, .09 gauge strings in drop A = floppy floppy floppy :p

I never practise that lead riff, I learnt it like a year ago and everytime I play it I just play it, so that explains that.

The glass prison, well that's easy.

That Lashed... recording was pretty good.

Ta.

I'm not satisfied with the tone on any of them tbh. I either go line out through my KORG PX4 which is impossible to get a decent rhythm tone from that way. Or I go line out from that Line 6 thing or mic it up and the overall tones on those things are ghey.


Hey repcak, any idea what tuning that Kalmah song is in, if so, I'll transcribe it for ya.

[repcak]

do you really think you can transcribe it? if you will do it, you're me new guitar hero :p

i don't know in what tuning the song is, but most kalmah songs are in D#

[MRDuCran]

Well I don't know how accurate it'll be but I'll give it a go, transcription is great imo, I've done quite a bit in the last few months.

[repcak]

do you have kalmah - the blind leader on your harddisk?

the solo is so.... eargasm... i cant stop stunning about it ... its shredding, but shredding with style, with emotion... i even cry when i hear the solo. its so full of emotion (imo)

i never thought a solo can wake emotions! for me the solo of "the blind leader" stands for hope, despair, don't giving up in life, struggling in life.

[MRDuCran]

Yeah I have it on my hard drive.

I haven't actually listened to the solo yet, I just got it, listened to the first riff, liked it, tuned my guitar to Eb, and started transcribing. I won't do the whole thing but I'll listen to it soon.

This guitarist must be able to downpick pretty damn fast...

[repcak]

downpick? hm... what i hear (or think) is that the intro is a fast hammer-on/pull-off lick played on one or two strings.

[MRDuCran]

So far what I have is:

Eb: 0-0-0---0--0---0-0-0---0-0-0-----

___d-u-d---d--d---d-u-d---d-u-d-----

That's what I hear and it sounds right on guitar pro. I tryed adding random "1"s to see if it is a hammer-on thing but it doesn't sound like it to me. Fell free to give it a go yourself and get can compare.

[repcak]

hm... could be... maybe its palm muted on some notes and with a lot of distortion it could sound like a "hammer-on/pull-off".

but at least the part at 0:36 is a hammer-on/pull-off for sure (hope so :p )

[MRDuCran]

I wouldn't be suprised if that bit at 0:36 was picked actually. It's got a sharp tone and he seems to favour alternate picking during the whole solo.

I can hear a mixture of:

High Eb string:

Eb-3-2-0---3-2-0-- (pattern 1)

Eb-3-2-0-2---3-2-0-2--(pattern 2)

Then he goes up the string and ends on the 12th fret.

Read the first comment. He said they know the correct tempo, the camera just didn't have space to do it all in one.

[MRDuCran]

Repcak, here's that transcription of Kalmah. I think it's pretty accurate in terms of both guitar parts. I mean, if you just listen to the left, then the right you can hear the notes that I've tabbed pretty clearly, but when they're together, some of the harmonies sound off, maybe just because it's guitar pro.

[MRDuCran]

NP Angels Don't Kill. I was working on Chokehold. Once I get that chord section, it'll be quite fun.

Didn't find it on Limewire, but Mitch got it to me.
If I was in dire need of it, I would have Googled, but I noticed he had it so I thought "hey"

[I'm Charming]

I'm learning Chokehold. Harder than I thought, though by far not the hardest tune I've tried.

[blue3]

What is the hardest?

dfhdfg!!!!! How did you meet Bodom?

[Drunken Viking]

It's more intellectual than you'll ever be.

This is my first post in this thread I believe. So far, there's a lot of drama. Let's cut it into a minimum, guys. You don't want me to take out the banhammer.

Yes, Officer Austin!

[repcak]

Repcak, here's that transcription of Kalmah. I think it's pretty accurate in terms of both guitar parts. I mean, if you just listen to the left, then the right you can hear the notes that I've tabbed pretty clearly, but when they're together, some of the harmonies sound off, maybe just because it's guitar pro.

DGCFAD. I started it this afternoon. Just had a riff and bits I liked. Thought I'd write a song or something. Since I have nothing to do.

[repcak]

i hate this world!

i just called my guitar store and asked them if they have the Jackson DXMG - no they don't have it; they have to order the guitar first. i planned to travel tomorrow to the store and buy it... now i can't.

so i wrote an email to both guitar-stores in my close range and asked them how long it will take to order a Jackson DXMG and how much i have to pay + i send them a link to an online shop where the guitar cost 465Euro... ;)

lets see what they will answer...

[blue3]

yeah the world sucks.

How did you meet Bodom, again? I don't feel like looking through all the pages to find out.

[MRDuCran]

intro/riff/intro solo of a thrashy tune I'm writing...Opinions please! I thought you said your tone was awesome...
Bass is too high and not enough presence or gain imo.

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

Maybe the forums are back for good now

[I'm Charming]

Nah. Judging over today and yesterday. It'll be on and off til Jeremy gets it in gear.

[AA-12]

Old Metallica is very good.
Yeah.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I find their early material rather overrated, though Master of Puppets and ...And Justice For All played a large part in getting me into heavy music.

but I never really dwelled on Metallica for ages like so many do. I quickly moved onto Megadeth and Slayer after a couple of months listening to those two albums alot.

[Drunken Viking]

Eww Metallica. Talk about overrated. Give me Exodus over them any day.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Bonded By Blood \m/

@ Jono, tbh. I have not heard mch exodus.

Alright. I'm going back to my video games. :p

it's not as old-school sounding.

I love the album title!
ha.

It's from Exodus right?

[AA-12]

That album is really boring :-\

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Yes, it's their latest album. It has Paul Bostaph on drums :D

[I'm Charming]

I'm not similar with him...

[Apocalyptic Raids]

That album is really boring :-\
it's not that bad.

[I'm Charming]

Flaming in the CoB thread?

never!

[repcak]

How did you meet Bodom, again? I don't feel like looking through all the pages to find out.
i saw them in vienna on 6.1.2006 after their concert. after the show i was sitting in the pub, which is part of the concert hall and waited. at about 2am all the band members were sitting suddenly in the same room. so i just had to go to them and talk ;)

Yes it's possible, but it's not empty. I just checked it and it's there.

well, i didn't get it... the file is empty, no notes, nothing. and its 1020bytes big.

[MRDuCran]

well, i didn't get it... the file is empty, no notes, nothing. and its 1020bytes big.

Haha probably because I uploaded the wrong file. :lol:

Here it is:

http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=C3E08F2F67D2083D

As I said before, if you listen to each guitar track individually, it sounds right compared to the song, but when you put them together, you get some ugly harmonies. I'm not sure what's going on.


I'm not similar with him... Paul Bostaph is the drummer who played for Slayer when Dave took a break. He plays on the War At The Warfield DVD and he's on the album that Dittohead is on, Divine Intervention I think it is, and there's a few others too.



What program would I use to rip a DVD onto my computer into .avi/mpeg format whilst keeping the same size/quality?

[repcak]

ah... fine, thanks :thumb:
edit: your tab seems to be correct... great job!!!

i always used DVDx2.0 - its good enough (for me) and you can decide how the quality should be. its a free program.

i just got an email from my guitarcenter. it will take 2-3weeks to order the guitar. i have to pay 20% and when i decide not buying, i won't get the 20% back. :upset:
i'm so pissed off.
now i have to wait, much longer to get my jackson... and i don't know how long.

/sad

[I'm Charming]

What Ghost said... DVD Decrypter used to be solid. (rip to an ISO), the new version fukks up your registry when you uninstall though. So that's a skip.

Download "dvd shrink"...It'll compress say an 8gb movie, into 3 or 4 gb.

I've used Sonic Record Now to rip a DVD as an ISO and a billion other things.

oh.. that seems easy. I doubt it would happen to me though, cause I'd have to get in a pub which I can't.

[repcak]

so i ordered my Jackson DXMG in the other guitar shop.
for 499€ instead of 520€
it will take only one week, not 2-3weeks
if i decide not to buy it, its not a problem :thumb:

so next week i will hold it in my hands. the only stupid thing is that i (maybe) won't be able to negotiate the guitar to 480 or 470€...

[TEST]

I fell in love with Follow The Reaper again. Everytime I die > rest of album

[AA-12]

Something Wild is the only Bodom I listen to anymore.

[MRDuCran]

I like all the songs now that I never used to before. Only because I never had the albums so I never knew they sounded like. Like Children of Decadence and Follow the Reaper.

[AllHailExecution]

They are a kick *** band. I'm seeing them in 4 days! :D

[blue3]

They are a kick *** band. I'm seeing them in 4 days! :DIn.. Edmonton?!

[Fish]

my friend is asking me to do a CoB cover with him, which songs would be good, me personally i dont really listen to them, any suggestions? Cause he doesnt care which one i pick.

[Huber]

will they include keyboards? I've thought of doing tons of CoB covers with my buds but then we always realize it's really hard to sound good without keyboards.

Maybe something off of Are You Dead Yet? would work best.

[Fish]

yeah, we dont have keyboard, but he can already play pretty much every song, I just never really got into them. I'll check out that album though, i dunno what to do about the keyboard, maybe he hasnt thought this one through.

[Fish]

well i dunno.

[MRDuCran]

The song Are You Dead Yet doesn't feature any keyboards I don't think.

Other songs that include keyboards but aren't really essential would be:
Needled 24/7
Sixpounder
In Your Face

And I'll bet your friend can't play the solos accurately. :)

[repcak]

listen to In Your Face and then to Throes Of Rejection by Pantera - can you hear the similarities. i think bodom listened a lot to pantera while writing the songs to AYDY :D

+ The Sin Trade by Sinergy is very similar to Metal Dog by Paul Gilbert

[MRDuCran]

Yeah Metal Dog, or Technical Difficulties has the same rhythmic structure. Alexi lists Paul as one of his influences so it's probably not coincidental.

I listened to the Pantera song that was supposed to sound like In Your Face but it just didn't, in my opinion.

[repcak]

try 'use my third arm' from the same album

[MRDuCran]

Did that too before when I heard it mentioned.

[repcak]

and you don't hear any similarities?


i just realize that on every bodom album there is at least one song with the word "bodom" in it - so there is always one song on each album, which deals with the murder at lake bodom some 30yrs ago.

Something Wild: Lake Bodom
Hatebreeder: Children of Bodom / Silent Night, Bodom Night
FtR: Bodom after Midnight
HCDR: Bodom Beach Terror
AYDY: Bastards of Bodom

funny, isn't it?

[Mr_Bounce]

What an intriguing gimmick :p

@MRDuCran: Needled 24/7's keyboard solo is my favourite CoB key solo :'(

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

Well they are called children of bodom and there name came from those murders at lake bodom and such so it really doesnt suprise me at all.oh and plus the reaper is there logo thing :-)

That is a great keyboard solo by the way

[MRDuCran]

and you don't hear any similarities?

Not really. I didn't download it last night but I have done before and I didn't then.

@MRDuCran: Needled 24/7's keyboard solo is my favourite CoB key solo :'(

Well it's over a pretty cool riff, regardless of how little notes it has but as I said, I don't really think a keyboard is essential in that song but I'm just throwing suggestions at you, you don't have to do it of course.

Obviously, the newer stuff is more open for your situation due to the keys playing a smaller role and Hatebreeder/Follow the Reaper involving the most keyboards.

What about Bodom After Midnight, Lake Bodom, Warheart?

[repcak]

the similarities i mean is the intro-rhythm part. its the same. 16th notes with breaks (->offbeats).
i don't mean the whole song, only the intro-rhythm part!

[blue3]

Oh, yeah?! I have no idea what you guys are talking about.. but.. one day till I see Bodom! :)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

i am so excited for you

>_>

[Benzum]

Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun du du
Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun du WA WA WA WA

Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun du du
Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun du WA WAW WA WAW wa wa wa wa wa!

Guess the track...

[repcak]

Living Dead Beat?

[Benzum]

It's not....

[repcak]

not? oh, ****... i don't know.

but its from AYDY, right?

[Benzum]

It's not :)

One of their more popular guitar tracks anyway

[repcak]

Follow the Reaper`?

[Benzum]

:(:(

try again

[repcak]

i give up... i don't know the song...

[Benzum]

Everytime I Die :cool:

I thought it was pretty obvious tbh man...

[repcak]

the dun dun dun du du: was it the drums or the guitar!?

[Benzum]

their more popular guitar tracks anyway

This :thumb:

I'll do another one soon

[repcak]

i have one for you:

dum dum .... chrrr... ffffptssss..... chrrrr .... hrm...hrm...

dum dum dum du tik, dum dum dum du tik, dum dum dum du tik, ...etc.

[Benzum]

:confused:

that looks tricky, ill think about that one

[Apocalyptic Raids]

something off AYDY, I think.

[Benzum]

if that's living dead beat i'll laugh

[repcak]

no, no.

its not from AYDY.

[Mr_Bounce]

is the "chrrr... ffffptssss..... chrrrr ...." the can opening in Hellion? :D

[repcak]

its an opening by Alexi himself, but from another song.

the opening is similar to "I Spit on Your Grave" by Sinergy... so with this tip it should be easy to guess the song :thumb:

[MRDuCran]

Silent Night, Bodom Night?

[repcak]

silent night, bodom night?
no.

the first line is a voice, the second line are the drums ...

[Kurrpt]

i just got an AMAZING drummer to join my band. I just stole a guitarist from another band last night :lol:


he says he doesnt know how to break it to his band. Hopefully he'll bring up my name, since they know me, and it will get them pissed at me, instead of taking their aggression out on hime

[repcak]

hey, kurrpt, whats up? haven't seen you for a looooong time

[MRDuCran]

Look forward to hearing a recording of Kissing the Shadows by me later.

I just gotta practise that 2nd verse lead part, and it won't be the whole song either because programming the drums for full songs gets boring in one sitting.

Plus, everyone knows those solos are fukkin' hard.

[repcak]

Hey Mitch, i wann hear this fukkin solo!! :D


/i just looked at the tabs... this solo is hard as hell; to play it 100% correct and to sound exactly like alexi... hard

[MRDuCran]

lolol noooo I can't play that!!!

IF I could, I'd sure as hell record it and post it everywhere.

I'll go practise the song so at least I can hopefully come a little closer to getting it.

[Kurrpt]

sup fellas :wave:

since the "downtime" ive found other avenues of wasting away my work week. Lot of the discussion in here doesnt really appeal to me, so i lurk a lot

[MRDuCran]

Lot of the discussion in here doesnt really appeal to me, so i lurk a lot

Heh same here. If you notice, most of the stuff I say relates to guitar playing.

[Lil’ Bloodred Ridin’ Hood]

Most of the stuff i say is spam :-)

[repcak]

me too :p

so anyone know now which song i posted? if not i will reveal it in some hours ...

[MRDuCran]

Reveal now.

[Shadows Within]

me too :p

so anyone know now which song i posted? if not i will reveal it in some hours ...
The Nail? is it the beggiging or the end? or middle?

[Forlorn Hope]

Is it the intro to Somebody Put Something In My Drink?

[repcak]

Forlorn Hope was the closest, with mentioning a cover song...

but its....



































Oops, I did it again

[blue3]

Haha, that cover's great.

I saw Bodom last night and they were obviously awesome. I love Henkka.. and Alexi, and I screamed that but I'm sure they couldn't hear me at all. The stupid small Bodom concert shirts ran out :(

[MRDuCran]

Oops I did it again doesn't sound like I Spit on your Grave. :confused:

[Forlorn Hope]

Forlorn Hope was the closest, with mentioning a cover song...

but its....



































Oops, I did it again
Aww lame. That wouldh've been my second guess.

[AmorphousBlob27]

im gonna see them in two days. Theyre playing with slayer, lamb of god, and mastodon. eets gonna be a badass show.

[repcak]

Oops I did it again doesn't sound like I Spit on your Grave. :confused:
the beginning does... the spit by alexi :p


/loves his avatar

[blue3]

im gonna see them in two days. Theyre playing with slayer, lamb of god, and mastodon. eets gonna be a badass show.yeah it will be. Take pictures! I couldn't due to my camera phone sucking.

[AmorphousBlob27]

yeah it will be. Take pictures! I couldn't due to my camera phone sucking.

Yea. No doubt. I'll try to get som pics to post later.

Wow. Alexi Laiho is god. visit google video and search Alexi Laiho. That dude is a freaking insane guitarist.

[repcak]

yes he is! he's my personal guitar god, together with roope latvalla

[Forlorn Hope]

Alexi and Paul Gilbert for me.

[repcak]

Paul Gilbert has great style, but after watching some videos from japan, where only he alone play on stage like G3 does, it was awful... all the time the same licks in another position... it gets boring.

what i love are his songs by racer x: scarified, technical difficulties... fantastic :D

[MRDuCran]

Nooo

Watch Racer X videos. Noone can play that stuff like he can, seriously.

I'm not mad on his new bluesy style, but his playing back then pwns life.

[AA-12]

Paul Gilbert/Racer X is boring as ****. :(

[MRDuCran]

gtfo of my fred. :)

Paul Gilbert pwns.

I don't really like the old Racer X but some songs off Superheroes and Technical Difficulties are cool. No denying he's an amazing player though.
