Thank you!

Thanks!
That some great black metal
Agreed! Thanks for watching.

Rad band for sure!!!
🤘
Thanks, homie!!! Got to see them live right after making this video.
Mega rocking !!Well played Kevin!!!
Right on! Thanks for watching!
Good cover!
Thank you!
(Brazil 🇧🇷) song brutal insane 👀🫵👍🤘🤘😛😝😜.
Sim é boa canção duma banda clássica! Obrigado por ver o meu vídeo!
Desde el minuto 2 en adelante mezclaste las partes de guitarra de ambos guitarristas. Luke Shively sólo es trémolo constante y John McEntee hace la rítmica con los pinch harmonics. De todas maneras lo agradezco porque de no ser por tu video no sabría cómo tocar esta canción. Tienes un excelente oído musical.
Gracias amigo! Sí noté que estaba mezclándolas al aprender la canción jaja y luego decidí hacer eso en vez de aprender una sola parte.
Very very cool! And yes we play in drop D. You still nailed it. Cheeers
Thank you! Love the new album, homies!
Where did you get the tabs?
Hi! I learned this by ear right when it came out. If you want to learn it, hopefully my video can help!
So good I ended up walking into my living room suddenly dressed like Ace ventura eating sunflower seeds! I love playing this one too I do the pinch harmonics like PAT used to do
Haha perfect! Thanks for watching.
Bro's got that tone dialed tf IN! Sounds exact.
Thank you!!! I appreciate that.
Awesome cover! This song is a timeless classic.
Yes!!!! Thank you!
Awesome video and cool guitar, but I had to lower the quality for the video to not melt into buffering sludge. Boy, CZcams sucks now, not your fault.
Thanks for watching! Maybe it’s the internet connection?
@@kevinberstler It probably is, I live in the middle of nowhere. You were awesome though, and I sent it to some people. Love that guitar, the white EMG fits in just right.
@@aaronmcbryer4362 awesome! Happy to hear that. Keep it up, homie!
@@kevinberstler Likewise!
Nailed it, great cover.
Thank you!!!!
All time classick 🤘🤘🤘
Absolutely! Such a fun one to play too!
Great cover! Nailed it🤘solid, on point sounded like my old vinyl!😊
@@skaterboy8822 thank you, homie! Appreciate the support!!!
Yes!
Right on! Thanks for watching!
I learned this and covered this because of your video. It was a great nostalgia trip. 🤘🏻
That’s awesome to hear! I’m glad this was able to help you. Is your video posted? I’d love to check it out.
@kevinberstler it is! I Just uploaded it a bit ago 🤘🏻
do you think i can tune my kramer pacer classic to b flat standard? i lowkey don’t want to snap my strings it’s a 6 string
Of course! You can tune a six string to whatever you want (for the most part) as long as you check intonation and action and string gauge.
what tuning is this song in? Great cover by the way !
Db Standard! I always post tunings in the description. Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you learn it.
woah a non headless goc??? Never seen that before :o
I like how their headless guitars look, but I couldn’t refuse the deal on this one when I got it.
Fucking disgusting. I love it!
Right on! Thanks for watching!
Hell yes🤘
Thanks for watching!
!! rock 'n' roll my friend !! have a great day :D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for watching!
Legendarios 🔥
Sí!!!
Og slam
Old school for sure
Bro I cant wait for the new album to get released
What? I didn’t know they were working on a new one. That’s rad!
@@kevinberstler since 2014 i believe
@@annihilation777 damn I wasn’t aware haha
@@kevinberstler yeah homie, search roger beaujard on CZcams and he's got a few demos of new songs uploaded
Hell yeah! Good old Mortician. That was a sick and thick tone you have there my friend.
Mortician all the way! Thank you!
Hail Mortician 🤘🤘🤘
Always! Danke for watching, homie!
🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks for watching, Greg! You have a favorite Mortician song?
Tuning bro ??
Db Standard. I always post tunings in the description. Thanks for watching!
Please, can you do another cover of Konvent, I'd like to watch Trust!
Thanks! Let me know which songs.
@@kevinberstler Trust and The Eye, amazing riffs
@@MatheusSilva-qz1mk thanks! I’ll check them out.
@@kevinberstler man, have you ever listened to Dragonlord by Katla? It's other great song and I haven't found any cover
@@MatheusSilva-qz1mk I haven’t heard it. Thank you for recommending it.
Beautiful🔥
Thank you!
This was nice to watch! I love all songs from IVth Crusade and For Victory. Dying Creed is one of my favorites.
Right on! So many great songs. My favorite album is ‘Mercenary.’
Cute!
Teehee 🤭

Cant. Get. Enough. Of Cannibal Corpse!!! Great cover!
Same here! Thank you for watching. I just posted another Cannibal Corpse cover, but from an older tune.
Fantastic!
Thank you, Andreas!
👍
Thanks for watching!
This is amazing , I have jus started learning guitar and this song the challenge Just to prove us death metal girlies can play too🤘
That’s awesome to hear! I hope my video helps you learn this track. If you haven’t already, check out Mythic, Derkéta, and Bolt Thrower. Female power within death and doom!
@@kevinberstler thanks 💜
Guessing there is no tabs anywhere for this though ?
@@shawneedoo8794 not sure. Learned this by ear. Gotta train your ear.
So killer to see Impetigo being covered, such an underrated band! About the guitar - it looks like a 90s BC Rich to me, is that correct? I know the Bronze series has a bad reputation so I was wondering if the 90s Bronze guitars are a little better?
Totally! Love their work. About the guitar, your guess is as good as mine. I swapped the original neck for an aluminum one. The body is light weight and works. Haha
@@kevinberstler Nice dude, it sounds great. Subscribed/binge watching your covers now 🤘
@@rexor7590 thank you! I appreciate you.
that sick tone Is shredding My guts
Thank you!!!
Wow that guitar has to be old AF I remember these when I was kid like $300 or something now they sell for stupid prices on the used market haha Great song choice btw
I’m not too sure how old it is, but I grabbed this for under $300, maybe because there was a crack in the neck that seller didn’t tell me about. Haha it’s fixed now. Thank you!
Pestilencia grosera, me latió el interludio en el 2:52 poderoso 🔥
