Hi! I realized yesterday that it’s been nearly 4 months since I last uploaded something. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean for it to get this way D:
I always figured this piece would translate well to metal with the overall speed and energy. I think it turned out alright! Tons of credit to our lord and saviour Jules Conroy AKA FamilyJules7x. I would never have thought about using tapping to play the lead banjo part as he did in his BK main theme cover, and I definitely couldn't do it that quickly with traditional picking.
As written in my last video, my excuse for uploading close to nothing is that I have a school project that involves me recording one man band-covers of 8 different metal songs, plus I’m working on a solo album with original music. Most of that is written now! But still, I’ll try my very best to upload something somewhat frequently. Sorry for not including a drum cam, I wanted to get this out as soon as possible.
Also, winter has struck Sweden and I’m struggling to get bright, clear video. Sorry about the grainy image. Hope you like this cover, either way! Thanks for watching.
