Be'lakor - Abeyance (Guitar Cover)

As with the previous video, this was a completely new song to me when I got the request. I quite like it though, very atmospheric. I especially like the melody that comes right before the first acoustic section. It doesn't really go in any scale, but it sounds awesome! Playing-wise the song wasn't super difficult apart from the verse riffs, which were nigh impossible to play :D The first verse riff is already one of the hardest riffs I've ever played, and the second is likely THE hardest riff I've ever played. I spent a whole hour practicing nothing but those two riffs today to get them to a point where I'm not embarrassed to release this video :D Being over 8 minutes long the song of course has a lot of stuff to remember as well. Memorization-wise the hardest part was probably the outro melody.
