Metallica's "Blackened" but on ukulele, you know, internet.

Gear rundown

The purple picks I use were given to me by Purple Plectrums

My guitar courses are available within the Guitareo membership :)
Also, my beginner course, GuitarQuest, is still available on it's own too

The channel is supported in part by Sweetwater’s affiliate program. Thanks for that!

*Asks dad (Who's very into hard rock and metal) to get a ukulele for Christmas.*
"What? Why would you want a ukulele?"
*Shows him this video*
"Sick."

ukulele metal is like the sound-ish incarnation of cute kitten trying to look angry

No one will probably care, but this, THIS, the song/cover that started everything for me. Metal, metallica, and so on. Thank you very much, Rob.

God damnit old Metallica had some awesome riffs.

[ChristianIce]

The bass is too loud, it doesn't respect the original mix :D

Me: "mom can I get blackened?"
Mom: "no we have blackened at home."

They liked your cover so much that they recently decided to make it official and do it themselves.

Maytallica is my favorite time of the year!

[dvanderwarn]

really nailed the bass tone of the original

[toastyslugs]

Me when clicking on the video: how the hell will he pull off the solo?
Me at 1:45 :oh, ok I see how it is

[robloxlover]

I'm going to get an electric Flying-V ukulele to play uke-djent on, who wants to come with me?

[Snchiebchies]

THERES NO BASS IN THIS ALBUM. WHAT ARE YOU DOING.

[LukeDatema]

Rob Scallon is the master of YouTube thumbnails... and this is so sick!

This was 6 years ago and I have watched this countless times, wondering how in the world you can play that on a ukelele. I still can’t even play blackend on my regular guitar. Great job man 🤘

[manuelplz]

Rob do a cover of "figth fire with fire" :D

[oof]

0:44 when you get too into playing the Ukulele

[Rex-fmnt]

Why are your thumbnails always so perfect? xD

[asimpleman]

Lmao, the way you throw you hat and glasses off at the beginning cracked me up. This is epic on so many levels, your head banging makes it so much better 😄
