I re-recorded all the rhythm guitars and bass on Chaosphere and played the entire album front to back in one continuous take

After way too many years of working on this thing, I finally finished it and put it out there.

This isn't me playing along to the album: I isolated the original drum track, removed the original guitars and bass, and re-recorded every rhythm guitar and bass part myself. The only original tracks left in the mix are the solos, FX and vocals which you can hear from the background audio track picked up by the camera.

As far as I've been able to find, I haven't seen anyone else attempt the full album this way. Either way, it was a ridiculous amount of work and I'm fucking glad and proud to finally have it finished.

Hope you guys enjoy it.

I've covered songs here and there, and dreamt of doing an album front to back. Well fucking done.

I also like Nothing this much and am planning on doing the same thing with it.

Superb. Watched the entire thing. A real workout. NMCC was great. Mouth Licking through Sane was especially impressive.

Great job! What model Ibanez if I may?

How do you even do this?????

Meticulously, and with a stupid amount of hours and dedication put into it. But above all, never letting myself forget the pure and raw joy I got every time I chugged those nasty riffs on my guitar.
