  • This was a bonus track from Verminous that I whipped up from a demo I had lying around of some heavy metal riffs. Trevor wrote the song to be about my pomsky, Sabre, so this tune is special to me!

    I love how you've managed to refine the Dahlia sound over time, making the 'dad rock' riffs more rock-y while still keeping that classic death metal feel to them.

    Brandon I wish there were more old school players like you in the metal scene. Im always amazed by your playing ability and it stands out from players that just focus on chugga chugga. I’ve been following your videos for years. You have a lot of great things ahead of you!

      He is a normal person. If you have passion and the mental maturity to learn an instrument at a young age plus maintain good practice habits you can be as good as him. You won’t have the same personality on the guitar, though. And that is probably what fascinates you even more than his skills. He’s just a player that expresses a lot of emotion in his playing. It’s not just a machine with perfect skills.

    • @Jeffmetal42
      @Jeffmetal42 Před rokem +1

      It was on Verminous, just not the US release. They always do bonus tracks for the Japanese release since CDs/albums are a rough market there. I think they cost a lot more in Japan, but yea, that's why Japan gets the bonus tracks and we don't... At least on physical release.

    Brandon Ellis, I've been playing since the 80s and I have to say, YOU ARE AN AMAZING MONSTER GUITARIST. You deserve to be and should be with a top notch band like Metallica or Megadeth. Even though your playing skills are way above their style of music, and your playing is so much more advanced than theirs, nonetheless you deserve that paycheck $$$$ and world class gig. Seriously, you should be more famous. It seems like a crime that Kirk Hammet is where he is, not because of skills, but because he was at the right place, at the right time. I hope you make it man, I really do. You are a bad ass guitar player and I mean that.

I could play jason Becker...malmsteen...Vai...and Vito from white lion with ease ...now I have to relearn alot of their stuff Dont ever quit. You're very good and I am rooting for you. Don't ever quit or youll be like me and have to relearn alot of shit. 😂 I was a theory expert and now I have to rehash what I forgot. Even my own songs. Haha.

I'm trying to grow my own channel ( youtube.com/@RaineyHall ) but it isn't going well. I don't think its because of my guitar playing though, I'm pretty sure its just that the algorithm hates me! Keep being awesome bro!
