Nobody saw it coming, right???!!!

Here is my take of this all time classic! Such a killer song, by the almighty Priest!
And such a pleasure to play over time, after all these years. Timeless!

Also, I'm releasing my copy while Judas Priest just released their 19th album, with 50 years career, with a fantastic new album 'Invincible Shield' that everyone should have a listen. congrats to this band, they are still here, strong & relevant. All thanks to them!!!

Painkiller - Cover

Listening to the cover John Bush and the Metal Allegiance team did on the Namm '24 show, made me want to cover it too. So good memories with that tune, Scott Ian's right hand is phenomenal!

Enjoy!

Anthrax - Only Cover

Back to really good memories, at the source of MeloDeath.
Thanks In Flames, so much fun with this album!

In Flames - Artifacts Of The Black Rain - Cover

As I've finished my 2nd guitar built, which was my daughter's 20th birthday gift, I quickly recorded the rhythm tracks of this cover. 
then she left with the guitar, and I wasn't able to go back to it.
Let's finish it today, in a raw perspective!

Enjoy this cover of one of my most important influence, through one title of this brilliant album: The Trial (Chambre ardente) from The Eye.

The Trial (Chambre Ardente) - King Diamond Cover

Black Sabbath - Paranoid Cover

New challenge with a cover of the mighty track Hellrider from Judas Priest, from their come back album Angel of Retribution (2005).
A majestic track, full of parts and twin harmonies, 6 min double bass drum... another beautiful one from Priest, I love it. 
And I'm quite satisfied with the outcome.
I hope you'll enjoy it too.

(and for a change an AI generated Hellrider picture... that's very 2024 :D)

Judas Priest - Hellrider Cover

All hails to the majestic Dismember, one of my favorite pure Swedish Death Metal band.

This one came from listening to the first Death Blood album (https://deathblood.bandcamp.com) that you can consider as a tribute to this scene.
This cover is dedicated to Geoff and all people fighting against sickness! Take care, fight, and live!

This being written, a few comments on the track: 
Easy one, with beautiful harmonies, reminding me a lot to Orion from Metallica, somehow. 
Technically, very disappointed with my bass sound, which 'naturally' came out saturated :( impossible thus to have a decent clean sound, anyway!

Dismember - Nenia Cover

The last WE cover shall bring us back to the 90ies, where I tried to sing a beautiful hate song, haha!!! Enjoy, it's not everyday that I go behind the mic... (or try to...)

Carcass - Buried Dreams Cover

Life is sometimes complicated, thus no cover and no upload recently.
For today, a few months ago the melody of Countdown to extinction solo back back to my mind, and fit the mood, thus the need to cover it. I completely re-dicover this beautiful track from this masterpiece album. no technical difficulty in it, just a bunch of great arrangements, (and a shitty tab :D)

I also required the help of Marine for the female voice. She did it in one tack, easy girl!

Megadeth - Countdown To Extinction Cover

Without this man, Wolf Hoffmann, and this band, Accept, I wouldn't have become a MetalHead. Herzliche Danke Schoen, Herr Hoffmann!

So a few days ago, I was able to see Accept during their Humanoid Tour, third time I saw them, after their reunion tour with Udo in 1993 (Objection Overuled tour - in Lyon) and their second come back with Mark Tornillo (Blood of the Nation tour - in Paris). It's always such a pleasure, such a guitar lesson. My deepest respect and appreciation to this man, to this band.

So, I decided to break the mystery of this famous track who forged my taste for guitar solo and Heavy Metal. As always, it's raw, without much work on it, because time is short, but with so much fun! Enjoy, maybe.


Metal Heart - Accept cover

Work in progress.
a lot of things to improve (at recording level + arrangements + solo)

Judas Priest Cover - Between The Hammer And The Anvil + solo

A cover of the fantastic title 'No Tears to Share' from LoudBlast, from the Cross the Threashold Ep.

I wanted to cover it all, and improve my mixing (beginner) skills, and also include vocals in the equation. Great exercise, I've learned a lot.

Thank you so much to my friend Entomber for the all vocals here!

Thank you a billion time to Arnaud Chipouka for all the advices you gave me during this work. It's well understood. Take care !!

All instruments played & recorded by myself, except the drum track done through EZDrummer and extracted from the GP tab found online (thanks to its creator).

No Tears To Share - Cover Loudblast

Metal and guitar heroes are my daily diets, as I felt into the magic potion around 1986/7.
Playing guitar as an autodidact since 30 years, now recording myself and having fun!
