*nik* “When did I cut myself....?”
*from the void* “a contract has been bound in blood...”

I feel you when trying out Moonlight Sonata! xD Looks and sounds easier than it is hahaha.

Paganini was the first shredder. He revolutionized violin playing and I recommend watching videos of his pieces on violin. Absolutely insane. People back then thought he sold his soul to the devil.

Man. When Nik calls himself garbage at guitar but I can't even play Through the Fire and Flames on guitar hero:(

Neo-classical done metal is just the Castlevania soundtrack.

[adamcastillo]

You know who plays neo classical? Children of Bodom 🤘🏼 COB cover for Alexi Laiho please?

6:36 - 6:50 reminded my why I'm subscribed to this man

[silentfox]

"every time i think im decent at guitar i do this and remind myself im trash" proceeds to sweep

[Ritter_Gruppe]

Fun Fact: The Paganini piece that was played is known as the Devil's Caprice, because people thought Paganini sold his soul to the devil to be able to play it.

Quote of the day-" neoclassical is metal without electricity".
Well said Nick.... Well said....

First I saw Alexi Laiho playing classical songs with distortion, and immediately felt the connection! It was a musical course series of some sort. It looked so easy, and it sounded so gorgeous

"Classical composers would've wrote the sickest prog music ever" I 2nd that statement.

[therealandrecorbin]

Classical has influenced my metal ever since Rising Force came out in 1985, thanks for posting. Great channel.

[kilianmcvey]

Weird you post this a day after Alexi Laiho's passing, almost like an unintentional tribute. Love the series. RIP Wild Child

Lmfaooo "his fingers move faster than my eyes can process light." 😅😅😅

[MatandChelsReact]

Classical music is metal as fuck. The more sinister it feels the heavier I imagine it on guitar. You killed me with the joke about Smoke on the Water.

"Classical composers would have wrotten" - Nik 2021

[barrettflorida]

Classical and Metal absolutely go together!!

[kfury]

Neoclassical music: *"exists"*

My fingers: Nah, chugs all day bro.

4:15 sounds like Versailles~Philharmonic Quintet~. You should check 'em out. They're my all-time fav band from Japan.
