KISS did drop tuning long before these bands. Today's bands aren't even exciting. You'll never find the next Eddie Van Halen, Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, or even Eric Clapton at least in this generation. Nobody is exciting. Even so, Gene Simmons is right when he said Rock N Roll is dead. He's absolutely correct. And who killed it? The very music industry itself. And that's why back in 1983 you could buy a ticket to see Van Halen for $25.00, but if they were here today, the same ticket would cost at least $250.00. Bands don't make money off album sales anymore. Anyone can download music for free rather than spend $19.99 for an actual record or tape. And that hurts any band more than anyone could imagine.
@@user-vt2px3di7y i think alice in chains and nirvana were good choices. nirvana imo was one of the more “iconic” ones of these five, maybe no more tears but i think heart shaped box holds to the idea perfectly
Longtime drummer here. This guy has better rhythm ability than 95% of guitar players I've played with, and that's saying something. Solid chops and consistent rhythm are understated skills. It's not all about speed and sweep-picking.
Not trying trying to be negative or smth but just simply can't understand your "wow" effect, i mean that guitar pal is not bad and stuff but he did chose freakin easiest songs to be in bpm with without hesitations and slopes, just can't get it.
@@justaman1864 If you don't get what this drummer is saying, then you're part of that 95% of guitarists he's talking about. All love tho, it's just one of those things, if you know, you know. 😌🍻💯
@@saulf.4678 Of coooooooourse i am, dude. Kudos to you for being that 5% guitarist or best/beast drummer and stuff. like i said, not trying to be negative, just communicating, you know.
I suggest anyone who looks playing drop tube songs, get a drop tuner petal. It makes it very easy to quickly switch tunings and play all your faves. From drop c to b just by turning a knob
Very cool😎 this is the second video of yours I've seen kick ass man love it just what I needed I've been practicing with different tunings on the guitar Jimmy Page Queens Of The Stone Age Monster Magnet ECT thank you for more inspiration!
These bands mentioned are Johnny Come Latelies in reference to drop tuning. KISS is one such band that always tuned their guitars down a half to full step. But I'm sure even they weren't among the first.
That's C# standard (ALL strings tuned down 1.5 steps). Drop C# is the first 5 strings tuned down a half step and then the thickest string tuned down a step and a half as well.
I took your suggestions and made part 2: czcams.com/users/shortsfsV0lAxRRPw
I'm sad that I didn't hear unchained by van Halen on this list
I was the 69th like on this comment
Damn no more tears is fucken heavy
It's so good
The Black Label version is even heavier
And the solo is amazing.
Discover death metal and death core and no more tears will be nothing
@@user-fq2ju7mj4qthat riff is better and catchier than the entire Deathcore genre
banger song choices. no talking. just great riffs properly executed. love it man.

@@stanleybroniszewsky8538 kiss isn’t popular anymore, cope (this time with healthy coping skills)
Great riffs expect nirvana and Alice in chains

@@stanleybroniszewsky8538 KISS is terrible...
Damn got the sproinky pinky going on
I came to the comments just to see if anyone mentioned his weird fingering style
Pinky is definitely not invited to the party... so weird
@@seajayvandale9100as musicians we all have our own style it's part of the art being unique there is no such thing as a right or wrong way with art
The tone is stored in the dead fish finger 🎣
i do the same thing didnt realize it was a thing other ppl did till you pointed it out
Dude you nailed the tones!
That’s what I was thinking!
he’s not playing, you can see the my own summer riff starts before he plays it
He’s literally using the audio tracks lol
@@bigmansentaiyes he is, look at the nirvana one.
Not for heart shaped box though lol
The No More Tears riff is one of my favorite riffs ever
Right
Them Bones the greatest tune ever.
heart-shaped box really gives u the chills
That one was REALLY good!
True I have covid up my lubed ass hole currently
I was pretty sure heart shaped box was in drop d ...until remembered nirvana tuned their guitars half step down
@@danielshultz8008 Kurt sang e flat and tubed to it so basically drop c sharp is drop d
@@carlsmith1263 makes sense
This guy’s having so much fun
The fact that you look exactly like a young Jerry Cantrell helps a lot
ALICE IN CHAINS MENTIONED 🔊🔥
Literally my playlist
Everything is in my playlist but ozzy.
Drop c# and my head immediately went SHOVE IT!! 😂
Same
I love this tuning. It might be my favorite.
Some bangers that I know in this tuning are Miss Murder, Lying from You, and Shallow Bay.

I totally agree, not only the technicality he has but his timing is actually really bloody cool.
BYOB is such a fun song to play.
U got killer tone bro
nothing can beat the BYOB riff!
96 Quite Bitter Beings, though idk if it's drop C
@@jollygrapefruit786i think thats in e standard
@@JohnnyNada its in d#
@@jollygrapefruit786its E standar D drop
@@jollygrapefruit786great band, but it's d#
You do have that Cantrell sound I was wondering just couldn’t put my finger in it Jerry fucking rocks man
thank you dude i struggle to find new songs to learn and now i'm learning every single one of these 😂
That pinch harmonic in tears was sweet!!!!
Nice to see someone posting a video and actually playing it right
yo if you made any full covers of these on yourube i would totally watch all of them
Def would love to do that soon
@@pmx2npolyamaours (Breaking Benjamin)
Built to fall (trivium)
"A.....A......A .....A🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥💨"
The melding off riffs here broke my head as it went into the SOAD part. Very well put tigether
Lookin zooted out of your mind, yet still layin down clean riffs. Respect.
I know you’re a SOAD fan like me so on #4 I was like “it’s gonna be BYOB it’s gonna be BYOB” and then I was like “AHH HELL YEAH!!” Nice going.

the riff in my own summer is so good. and the second riff stephen does is sick too. i love how it sounds similar but is way heavier and fatter
when drop c# was mentioned i was already thinking of them bones, and seeing it in the list makes me so happy, more aic!!
Whatever genre these are, it’s my favorite
I love all of these songs
That pinch on no more tears was awesome
One step closer Linkin Park
Most Linkin park riffs 😂
@@BeefyFortnite I came here to say that
Deftones shits on linkin Park bro
@@bowincoberly4767 see for me i think Linkin Park shits on deftones
Man I love both LP and Deftones why hating tho
Tones are on point
Heart Shaped Box was my immediate thought and I was not displeased.
All great riffs
You're so cool dude like genuinely this is so cool
I never knew this tuning was so popular. It makes me want to explore alternative tuning, honestly one of the best things about a guitar is tunability.
He got that Rhodes pick squeal fkin down
you have excellent taste
Love all of those songs- thank you for posting… 🤘🏼
thank you so much for actually using a slide for No More Tears
Song: Triunfo
Artist: Almafuerte
The pinky curl goes crazy
Straighten that pinkey brotha
I'm double jointed so I can't 😂
Actually bro 😂 wtf going on with that pinky
@@pmx2ni have the same issue. It actually sucks to use while playing.
Drop c# is so goated. Once I learned song in that tuning. I left it that way and bought another guitar to use for d and standard.
My Own Summer is the iconiciest of them all.
My own summer slaps. Immediate headbang
Bustin that slide out, smoooooth
could you make a tutorial showing how you get the tones?
Ngl, this was im searchin for
he plays the original song, his guitar is way softer than the track or not audible at all
Keep rocking man!! Good stuff
Soild playing. Solid choices. Good job yo
Heart Shaped Box is drop D tuning.
How do you get your byob tone it sounds dope
Love all these songs
Tone master, master of tones
Unchained - Van Halen is also in drop C#
Bro mad at the riffs😂
LMAO
I love riffs in drop C#
Was waiting for Seed of Memory by Terry Reid, but the music category was too metal. Nice job!
Very cool😎 this is the second video of yours I've seen kick ass man love it just what I needed I've been practicing with different tunings on the guitar Jimmy Page Queens Of The Stone Age Monster Magnet ECT thank you for more inspiration!
The Package by A Perfect Circle's main riff slaps so hard too
Sounds good man!

Ghost walking by Lamb of God is my all time #1, it just so happens to be in C#
I learned the intro to heart shaped box because my mom loves that song lol
How could you forget the goat, Down with the Sickness? 😏
Should've included Shine, that hook part is absolutely iconic and it's a great one.
i always look for the techiest shit to play but this makes me wanna just learn all the bangers i listen to. thanks for the killer vid
Those last 3 songs 🙌🙌
Shine - collective soul and one step closer -linkin park
Sweet Leaf
That's C# standard (ALL strings tuned down 1.5 steps). Drop C# is the first 5 strings tuned down a half step and then the thickest string tuned down a step and a half as well.
@@gdawgs101 oh i see
thanks
@@roaming740 NP!
Missing one step closer by linkin park 😭
That's fire bro 🔥
Them bones and no more tears >>>>>>>>
"Demon Speeding" By Rob Zombie was always a fun one. Imo.
Heart shaped box is drop #D but the guitar is half step down tuned (bemol) just like My own summer
Them Bones and Heart Shaped Box are both drop D I think but the way you play em sounds perfect so keep it up haha
“NEON"
Tight man 🤘
I was waiting SOAD - revenge. It’s my favourite song.
Wicked man. All my favourites
Retro guitar for heart shaped box is great!
I'd also say covet by basement is a pretty iconic drop c# song
Drop C#, Eb Standard and Drop D are the best tunings.
i will be so good cuz of your inspiration mister!
Gold Tops 😍
You are awesome. Damn..
That first riff brought me back to counter strike stickman animation
Soul blind a newer band plays in drop Csharp their stuff is super easy to play but very fun
I play heart shaped box in drop D. Very fun riff.
One step closer by linkin park is just a riff thay you can hear the first note of and recognize it
In a manner as my gentleman would say "LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LAA
OOOOOOÖH" 🥂 🎩
AHH I LOVE ALICE IN CHAINS!!
Great job!
a riff in c# that I like a lot is one step closer by linkin park. something about that riff is just so 🤌
bro's got that bassist face going on
Gonna have to try these
The byob riff looks exactly like how i would expect to play it
I was about to comment “u should do them bones” and then the second thing that’s comes on is them bones💀
