]I realized today that it's been over 10 years since i wrote a black metal song and I decided to do something about it!
It turned out something similar to black metal at least...

The guitar is an ash telecaster with a maple neck fitted with a Piledriver. That pickup is scary!
You really don't need a humbucker, it's super tight!
I found myself really digging the guitar tone so I decided post it here, not sure about how it really sounds since I only have access to regular stereo speakers at the moment.

No drums yet! And it's not a finished song music wise!

Edit: Full song with drums uploaded!

You high gainers out there, all you need is a tele and a Piledriver.

That sounded nice and mean  :D Great playing. I wouldn't have thought it was a tele if I didn't know.

nice :)

But The Sinner is the best 'humbucker' in the world - for me anyway!

Thank you!
It was a lot more fun to make a Black Metal song than I remembered. I might do it again!  :D

Congrats on your new guitar Madsakre! It'll be a metal machine with some Piledrivers in it!

And yes, it needs vocals! Anyone?

Interested! Never done BM but I am sure I can manage it.   :D

Got any lyrics you want in it or does a guy have free reign? If so, any concepts of lyrical content you want?

Haha cool!

I'm really bad at writing lyrics (got the name "Gates of Cadaver" from a "black metal band name generator" on the internet and thought it sounded cool, yet hilarous) so yeah, you'll have free reign but it would be cool if I could contribute with some suggestions if I have any. I don't care too much about lyrical content either, not too crazy about nazi stuff though. =)

My priority is finding rythmic balance, atmosphere and dynamics in the song so the vocal arrangements is more improtant to me than the lyrics.
It would be really cool if works out!

Do you have a recording (of your voice) I could listen to?

I do, but my "harsh" vocals would be more Black Metal than they are on the tracks, heh. I adapt for whatever kind of music I'm singing / screaming over.  ;)

Sounds fantastic! I'm actually picking my mic up this afternoon so can finally start work on the lyrics etc. Took me and my mate a while to find a time when we're both off, heh.
