YouTube star Rob Scallon is usually seen with a ukelele or banjo covering Slayer. This time, however, he decided to make an original  song using just one string. “00000” is all breakdown, and it’s pretty hysterical how much it sounds like an actual breakdown. The musician starts out by cutting all the strings on a nine-string guitar, then playing the song, which is shot like an actual video in a decrepit abandoned house. In between, while playing the song, he checks email, while a bunch of zeros pop up, spotlighting how ridiculous the whole thing is. It’s all we’ll be thinking of the next time we hear a breakdown in a hardcore song.
