Covering Waking the Demon *13 years* after it released, but covers Knives while the music video is *still premiering*.

Never change, Nik.

[himawarii_gg]

one of the few people who actually "covers it right", honestly it blew me away when I realized everything on that main riff is downstroked

[getaround]

The first solo I ever learned to play and absolutely sucked at but convinced myself it sounded good 😂

[nezunskyfire]

Banger of a cover my guy.

You know you've heard the song one too many times when you can hear Matt's vocals without them actually being there aha.

[Danny-punw]

Who's soul did you have to sacrifice to downpick faster than Hetfield? Holy fuck that looked hard at that speed.

[byronbowler]

can legit see the joy in niks face jamming this banger

[Cyberdragunz]

I think this is the song that made me a metalhead. I don't really remember being super into metal prior to someone suggesting I listen to some BFMV songs, then Waking the Demon comes on and boom, instant metal addiction. Can't live without a daily dose now.

10/10 would recommend everyone gets addicted.

[SeanKitchen]

The face at “tread” and the no whammy shrug killed me 🤣🤣

[canuckguitarist]

“No whammy”

I felt that on an emotional level

[antithesis]

covering the song exactly like how it should be played : all down stroke

amazing, nik 10/10

[thelastdaybreathinginetern]

I miss these days!!! I've been a metalhead for 12 years. I was going to high school at that time of course.. and these were the best moments of my life.. it was like a beautiful dream..

Great cover NiK

Nik Nocturnal + Bullet For My Valentine = Banger! 🔥

[fynixstudios]

highkey this helped me shore up that chorus and the prechorus riff - things i'd been struggling with for literlly over a decade.
This track in particular reminded me of how I'd love to see you do the rhythm tracks too for some songs. Not every song has as simple of a rhythm track as this one, but for sure some songs definitely could benefit from having both tabs available - especially bands like Trivium who have harmony parts incredibly often. Idk if its feasible or anything, but I'd personally love seeing the rhythm tracks either in the same video or a coinciding video!

[DukeOz]

I've always felt like Waking the demon was like today's Master of puppets in terms of down picking

[onick]

Scream Aim Fire is one of the first metalcore albums I've discovered and it's still a banger album to this day

[seanempson]

that 9(21) squeel has been giving me the goosebumps for years now

[PupWagz]

Yes, finally, been waiting for this form you for a loooong time

[Samkyu_Music]

First hearing this song I though that I can do it. Then I saw the band doing it and its all downstrokes. I've never underestimate a song this much.

[DennisvanVerseveld]

Nice one! My arm always hurts like hell after that first downstroke part 😅

[SurrealOctopus]

This is definitely a great resource for someone like me who is learning the rhythm part to play along with and only hear the lead and myself. Keep up the great work Nik, and much love
