Well, here’s something I did for fun (audio only). Was surfing YouTube the other day and ran across this guitarist who does these “riff battle” videos, filming himself playing his favorite riffs from 2 or more bands (https://www.youtube.com/@miguelsequeiraguitar). I watched his Sabaton vs. Powerwolf video and never really gave Sabaton a listen before this.
Anyways, some of the Sabaton riffs I thought were catchy… this song in particular caught my ear, but I wasn’t too thrilled with the originally recorded bass on it, it just struck me as lacking something. Played around with it a bit and recorded my interpretation (used some editing and speed-up/slow-down features in the DAW to play at this blazing fast 240 bpm which I cannot manage cleanly yet) to another guitarist who was covering the song as well.
Enough rambling, here’s a link to the audio - in video form. This is not intended to end up on my covers list or anything, just something I was goofing around with and thought I would share with y’all. Hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed playing around with it.
Edit: had to add… (one could almost hear them say) Sabaton! - “we love metal and history!”
