Watch a Young Girl Shred Along With Lamb of God’s ‘Hourglass’
While metal fans are no stranger to seeing young kids covering songs on YouTube, there is a new clip making the rounds that is sure to surprise many. The clip features a young Indonesian girl named Mel absolutely shredding along with Lamb of God’s ‘Hourglass’ on a Fender Stratocaster guitar. Check out the video in the player above.
According to her "About" page on YouTube, Meliani Siti Sumartini is a 15-year old guitarist, who posted a video of herself playing along to the classic Lamb of God track. The budding metalhead simply captioned the video with: "Check! Check! Taken before I’m going to school; I wish you're enjoying it."
While it was posted several months ago, a recent mention on Reddit a few days ago has propelled the video to nearly a half million views as of this posting.

Meanwhile, Lamb of God are currently working on their ninth studio album. Frontman Randy Blythe said the effort, which should arrive later this year, is “pretty monstrous.”
