Here it is my Metal Guitar Cover of 4Minute's iconic banger in 2012, "Volume Up"

First of all, I heard this song mostly in the Home Shopping Channel in TV back in 2012-ish, notably "Da chiugo pump up the volume (up up!)~" basically the Jiyoon's part that had those belted high note at the end of both chorus parts, and I really wanted to do a Metal Guitar Cover of this song, because this song is one of the most catchiest 4Minute song, and the interesting thing about this song is Jiyoon's part that ends with the belted high note! even HyunA's look is much beautiful, just like on "Bubble Pop!" and "Gangnam Style" as well, and this song has those vampire concepts as well, just like T-ARA's "Lovey-Dovey" which has those zombie concepts too, this song is one of my favorites besides "Muzik" and "Hot Issue" as well

Aside from that, arrangement wise, I made it into more Heavier Metal influenced (in the style of FamilyJules) as well, and for the intro part, this song has the most melodic saxophone intro as well as after the bridge part, so I play both of those saxophone parts on a guitar, also, to spice it up, I also put the arpeggiated clean part on the intro part, the first verse part as well as the bridge part which gives this much vibe, starting at the HyunA's rap part, this is where the craze begins, I wrote those super intensive guitar riffs on there, as well as the chorus part I wrote those riffs that fits really well with all of those Jiyoon's belted high note, notably at the second verse, I wrote those chugging riffs which sounds perfect fit for this second verse part, and I also put the guitar solo between bridge and the third chorus part which I really liked very much, and of course, Pump up the volume!
