- Here's Metallica's classic Seek And Destroy but this I've re-arranged it to sound like as if ZZ Top wrote the song. I've also drank some hair tonic for this occasion lol!
This is my first time doing something in the style of ZZ Top and I'm happy with the outcome! This vibe fits into 'Seek' a lot!
R.I.P. Dusty Hill

R.I.P. Dusty Hill! Him and Gibbons were such an iconic duo!
So, here's my first video ever with me doing ZZ Top style, I've had hell of a fun with recording this video!

Thanks! This is brilliant
Sounds amazing Denis. Great job. I hope Billy Gibbons hears this. 🤘
three words: brilliant. more please
Yes Sir...He was awesome.....Keep up the great work Denis...
Nailed It!
If you played this for someone without telling them what it was, they'd immediately recognize it for ZZ Top, then become very puzzled over not remembering it before
My wife hates ZZ Top and she totally thought this was them.
@@stoner36s How, I've seen Billy Gibbons live and he's amazing.
I was gonna like this comment but didn't wanna change it from 69 likes
@stoner36s why does she hate them?

I'm gonna need a whole album like this
Absolutely
YES!

Hell yeah!
Lord have Mercy!
Haha, that was my 1st thoughts too. This is Awesome.
... because these boys won't!
Phantom Lord!
Ah-how how how how!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Those pinch harmonics are ON POINT.
This is waaay better than it has any right to be! Nailed it!
I WOULDNT go that far. But its def good, and catchy, and i like it. But the original is the original
@@samuraikyokkan Don’t think they’re necessarily saying this is better than the original
@@gab2876 But sort of it is 😀
Little fact: according to Cliff Burton, ZZ Top was one of their influences... Metallica has to dig this!! R.I.P. Cliff and Dusty... Two of my favorite bassists of all time!!
Same for zack wylde! he had a lot of inspiration from ZZ top. I saw in an interview he was heavily influenced by their pinch harmonics
As well as Blue Oyster Cult! Another band that never got the recognition they deserved. Especially those first four albums.
Josh homme from queens of the storage. He said zz Was a big influence
@@nicholaskruger9460 "Queens of the storage" 😆😂 I blame it on the autocorrect of your phone
@@Ruger44RedhawkDon't forget UFO!!!! Everyone forgets UFO RIP Pete Way, Paul Raymond and Paul "Tonka" Chapman!😢😢😢😢😢
A metal song written so well, it even sounds good as a blues rock song.
You know it's a good "what if" when you can't tell which band is being idolised. ❤️👍
Had I not been a long time MetallicA or ZZ Top fan, I wouldn't have known this wasn't a ZZ Top song. That's how well this was done!
I hope Billy Gibbons sees this. He would love it and may start playing it at live shows. EPIC JOB. So well done.
Get a grip. Of course he wouldn't.
@@MoonshineSazerac I know he would not actually play it BUT I think Billy would like this and appreciate the creativity here. He is known to love other peoples music and be a friendly, supportive man.
This is pure genius. I came here to have an amusing listen, but found myself truly impressed.
Love that you captured both Dusty's and Billy's vocal styles
The version of this song that I never knew that I wanted so badly! 🎸🎸🎸
How about Death Leppard?
@@justicekelly5487
FCK! Don't tease me!
RIP Dusty indeed. You've captured that zz top feel and the boys would be proud.
Amazing! Fascinating how bluesy this riff can actually sound
I always interpreted it as one of those bluesier/hard rock sounding of early thrash songs.
Didn’t Metallica do something similar during their unplugged days .
Before I clicked play I imagined the groove of "Tush" to "Seek and destroy" in my mind and I was on the right track. Very cool and pro production. Guy's got skills.
Its literally in A blues
This is one of the weirdest yet fitting mashups I've ever come across
Im a 80s metal head through and through with seek and destroy prob one of my favourite songs. I didnt know what to expect when i clicked on it. I am so blown away by how good this is. You have given this song a completely new life in its own right. The comments show how good your adaptation is. Will certainly be looking for more. Kudos to you!!!!
Fantastic! I'm gonna need a whole album of ZZ flavored tunes.
Ideally the rest of Kill ‘em All…
Same this is absolutely wicked an don't normally like covers lol
Pull up company store..
Any reasonable AI should be able to do that by 2028
You're in luck. They made several albums.
I convinced both my sister and my brother in law that Metallica covered ZZ Top's original with this audio. Thanks a million for the laughter. More seriously... I love that one!
I've been listening to ZZ Top since 1976 - you nailed so perfect. Thank you
Wow, thank you! 🤘🏻
Dudes! As a 53 year old, metalhead, guitar player from Houston, Texss, I gotta say: THIS IS BADD ASS!❤💯🎸☺
As a teen in the early 90's, me and a friend were shrooming in a field in Sugarland. The owner saw us and chased us away. We jumped his fence and a few more then found ourselves lost in a patch of woods. We found a tall brick wall and climbed over it hoping for a way to a road. On the other side was this big circular driveway and a big ass house/ mansion with a few awesome hot rods and motorcycles out front. As we were checking out one of the bikes, the front door opened and a dude with 2 much larger dudes on either side came out. Although I was (and am) a metalhead and drummer, I immediately recognized the middle guy and blurted out "Holy shit! You're Frank Beard!". He says "Hey guys. You're a fan?". "Hell ya! ZZ Top is the shit!". "That's kind of you to say, but what exactly are you doing here fellas?". We apologized to him and told him the story. We were lost and just want to go home. He was really cool about it. He said just follow the driveway down and the gate guard would let them know which way to go. I wanted to ask for a pair of autographed sticks, but I really didn't want to push my luck. On my life, this is a 100% true story.
You got that right brutha!!!
@@Eris_Strife Thats an awesome story. I know its true. I heard once, back then, about a couple of teens all buzzed out getting lost on Frank's property. So that was you? Soooo cool. You're a drummer? I'm a guitar/basd player in Pearland. Lets jam dude! Hope you're having an awesome day!🎸❤☺👍
Hey Heavy Joe, do you like blues rock also?
@@Cabeza492 Abso-mutha-lovin'-lutely!🎸❤☺👍
Impossible to not be tapping your toes by the time this is over. The instant it starts you immediately recognize ZZ top. Well done Denis!
Tapping within 5 seconds 😂
Took about 6 seconds.
I read your comment, looked down, and realized my foot was tapping! :)
That's LITERALLY what I was doing just now😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@avlisksame here!
Stuff like this is why I love CZcams. Getting to see people's talents from around the world. Well done dude. This is the first video of yours I've seen. Instantly hit that subscribe button!!
"Hunh, search and destroy, haha!"
I'm laughing but I'm also genuinely impressed at your ability to cover another artist so well! 🔥💯
The thing about doing this via the eyes of Dusty and Billy is that you UNDERSTAND their feel of their instruments.. "Blues" to be exact. I like this version because it's more spacious and therefore more rhythmic and soulful... You captured / mimicked ZZ's souls.❤️✅
You nailed Billy Gibbons both vocally and instrumentally. I am completely amazed.
Wow! I'm a Metallica fan and a huge ZZ fan. Great job guys. I've always been amazed at how a piece of music can be transformed into different genres.
this was genius!
guys?
I say this as a fan of ZZTop for 40 years: you boys have absolutely nailed it. Excellent work!
13 years of youtube. This is one of the best videos i've seen. Period!
ZZtop is one of my favorites for 40years and this kills. Even sounds like Billy
As a huge Metallica and also a ZZ Top fan, just wow...that was amazing!
This is amazing
This is crazy good. Not unlike when Hurt became Johnny Cash's song, so too does Seek and Destroy now belong to ZZ Top.
At first I thought there was no way this would work, but you knocked this one out of the park. Excellent.
This is straight up amazing. Almost as good as Motörhead covering Metallica. And that’s high praise. Second in line after Lemmy is amazing.
In fact, some Motörhead songs would probably sound fantastic as ZZTop covers.
This is just incredibly well done. Again, amazing.
Also, Frank is a great drummer.
Your ability to emulate various artists' sound is nothing short of amazing!
Nailed it. Both voices and playing styles. The drum shuffle. Absolutely spot on perfect. I think I like this better than the original!
Bravo!!
Your ZZ is so good, I kept forgetting that you’re covering Metallica. Legit sounds like a badass ZZ Top song.
Sharing with all my students!
Damn, we used to screw around with stuff like this during band practice, but you take it to another level. I love it!
... 1995, driving home from work, cigarette in mouth, band rehersal in 2 hours, *radio blasting zz top...* life was good.
We demand a full album of this stuff immediately)
As a fan of both ZZ Top (hence my name) & MetallicA... this is amazing. You totally captured the vibe of that little ol' band from Texas incredibly well, here.
Even when I first heard MetallicA do Seek & Destroy, I already knew it had a bit of that going for it already. Now, I actually want to see ZZ Top _actually_ cover Seek & Destroy, & see what they come up with. That would totally be epic. =^/,..,^=
There's an excellent documentary on Netflix about them. So good
Cliff was a Topp fan.
@@SEKreiver Heh. That explains why Seek & Destroy already had a bit of a ZZ Top vibe to it.
Also, when I was teaching myself to play bass, I found there were a few similarities between that of Dusty Hill & that of Cliff Burton.
I love it when I see little things like that.
You nailed this! From the riffing to the Dusty backups. Sick!
Two of my favorite bands. Thanks for making this, I didn't even know I needed this in my life. Keep up the great work.
Holy shit, this is COMPLETELY spot on. ZZ Top and Metallica are two of my all time favorites, so this is a true treat!
Thats absolutely amazing!!!!
Your voice fits perfectly for that 🔥
Thank you so much man! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
This is PHENOMENAL. This really really captures early ZZ, from the first 2, 3 albums. Well done. I know you took a ton of inspo from Tush, but this captures BFG's tone from early ZZ really well. Nicely done, keep up the great work! As someone else says, this sounds like a lost ZZ song, so you got it spot on!
Great Gibbons' squeal! Love those pinch harmonics.
This is awesome. It has the "beer drinkers and hellraisers" feel to it.
There's nothing like a band's own songs with their own style, but for covering this metal song in a ZZ Top style you guys nailed it!
Just goes to show how all blues/rock is all working out of the same toolbox, even metal. Well crafted.
This would be a good song to play in a bar while knocking back a few beers... 😎 I LOVE IT! 😃 Great job as always, Denis!
I got one for ya: If The Doors wrote "Blackened" by Metallica. What do you say, my headbanger brother? 🙃
hahaha that would be great.. or George Thoroughgood covers Hangar 18!
What if Bruce Springsteen wrote fade to black
Blackened is the EEEEEEENNNND
✋🏻😎🤚🏻
Winter it will SEEEEEEEEND ✋🏻😎🤚🏻
Throwing all you SEEEEEEEE✋🏻😎✋🏻
Into OBSCURITYYYYYYY✋🏻😎🤚🏻
I can hear it in my head already 😁
Wow. Take a bow, that was extremely well done!
Thank you so much, Glenn! So nice to hear from you, been following your work for years. Thanks for your videos! 🤘🏻
bloody hell, this a beautiful style cover!!!!
This is now on my top 5 list of all music videos I have ever seen on youtube.
Denis that's my FAV one yet from you! Being the Texan that I am, I'm partial ZZ Top who I've seen in concert 3 time's (so far) and I must say that you NAILED IT buddy! Great job! 🤘🏻😎👍🏼
Words fail me....... I never knew I wanted this as a cover............... Thank you for this gift, you have made my day better.
Denis, it's always great to see your notifications... This is well done and you mashed these two bands up great. Thanks!
🔥🎸🔥
Holy cow! This is one of the most professional and engaging rock covers I have ever heard! Can you try a Rush song in a similar fashion? I imagine it would be mesmerizing!
Other than your beard being a lil short for the role, your playing is spot on, Denis! This was great. Hopefully another trend you continue.
Brilliant playing I prefer this as I love the blues Billy's touch and tone is to die for
I mean... you completely nailed ZZ's style... This is actually a really fun tune in that style! Love it.
To anyone who doesn't know: Billy F. Gibbons of ZZ Top was the person who invented the famous pinch harmonics!
I need a whole album of this.
Since I discovered this,a week ago, I’ve watched it at least twice a day. Lol
This version is awesome, I imagine myself in their Red Hot rod, driving on the roads of texas ZZTop forever
What if there was this incredibly cool guitar player that can play all different types of styles and meld songs together and make it work wouldnt that be great
More ZZ Top please. Excellent combo of bands. Keep up the great work.
Outstanding!!!
Excellent mash up!!!
I'm storing THIS video along with many of your others on my playlist!
Have a good weekend and be safe out there.
This is amazing. Thanks for putting this together.
Thanks I can no longer ever not hear this.when listen to either song again.
Um...WoW. I want a whole album of this!
That's really wild! Afterburner was the first album I ever owned. I was around 8 years old.
My dad picked up a hitchhiker and he put that tape in dad's stereo. They blazed one, and the dude forgot it.
I wore it completely out!
Later got into Metallica big time.
How cool is this?! Man, you're a genius!!!
Now, that sounds like something that I can play on a 3- string Cigar Box Guitar. 🎶
Awesome. Its sounds just like zztop. Voice is also pure zztop style! Please do more zztop style songs.
Yeah, if you could do an entire album of metal songs in the style of ZZ Top that would be pretty swell.
I need an entire album of this!!!
Dude I can’t stop smiling listening to this
You’ve outdone yourself dude. Magnificent!
Holy crap, Metallica in the form of ZZ Top sounds damn cool. There's just something about those boogie type blues that adds a whole new dimension to the song and with the addition of using the slide it makes it even more incredible sounding.
Now THAT was a masterpiece sir!!!! Hell yeah!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Genius. Love them pentatonic squeals. Rock on, brothers.
This works great, and it makes a great song on it's own !
This is great. The titles sound so absurb but then he actualky pulls it off. Love this guy!
Please do a Pantera song in this way.
My first idea was Cowboys From Hell, but Seek kinda worked better. But, it doesn't mean I won't re-do Pantera 🤘🏻😁
@@DenisPaunaMississippi Queen in the style of Pantera?
I know love two versions of this iconic song, one makes me want to go into combat the other makes me want to ride a Harley across Texas love it
Great addition to your channel my friend, glad you're constantly working on your content 💪🏻
Huge thanks bro! 🤘🏻🍻
@DenisPauna
Wow! This is damn good! The technical quality of the music is outstanding. The vocals even sound just like Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill. I just found this channel and it's hard to believe that one man could pull the whole thing so brilliantly. Please make more of these what if ZZ Top wrote metal songs.
Thank you so much! Here's the whole Kill 'Em All album as if ZZ Top wrote it:

@@DenisPauna
Yeah I found that one earlier today. It's really good too! I was thinking like a different metal band since you do lots of that band's songs.
That beard! 🤣
Much grooviest,no silly teenage angst. Perfect!!!
Broham this is spot on brilliant. You can quite literally be Billy's stunt double. Both on guitar and vocals. You have captured "that" groove. Hard to explain but you got it down. Righteous!!!!
Love this one. Always remember that blues is the heart of rock and metal.
love ZZ & Metallica, would definitely buy this album
I love it when people mess with genres. Metal up a pop song. Country a metal song. Or, this, apparently. Amazing!
Huge win. Love me ZZ, love me Metallica......especially with Cliff. RIP Dusty, RIP Cliff.
This is genius! The vocals are so authentic anyone familiar with ZZ Top would think it was them.
This is the best fusion I’ve ever heard! You hear within five seconds that it’s ZZ Top, and it sounds really awesome! I’m gonna come back to this ’cause if the groove. Make a whole ZZ Metopallica album!
This is a PERFECT blend of both styles. Well done!
