My course Complete Rock and Metal Songwriting is 50% off for Cyber Monday: bit.ly/CRMSBF502

Trey is the only one I know that can roll a dice and write a banger song by letting the dice tell him what to write.

Just wanna say, I've been watching the channel a lot lately. I remember when Gear God's started, and the "gear mortals" and stuff felt kinda pretentious and off-putting to me. But since the name change, I've been going back, I didn't realized it had morphed more into Songwriting Gods. I've been getting a ton of value out of these vids, so thanks Trey. And gj on the name change, I wouldn't have checked back in otherwise

It pisses me off to no end that I have but one upward-pointing thumb to give for this video. There were times where I was like "oh that sounded lame," and I do that to myself all the time and get stuck in the weeds or just quit for the day... Then several times, you took what I thought was a simple/goofy idea, and gave it giant balls of hot cannon-fired iron. There are several things I took away from this video, and for that sir, I thank you dearly. You made my day. And this song kicks the llama's browneye blue.

Anyone else find this a little dicey ?

I missed this series so I'm definitely happy to have it come back, so many bangers come out of this

Dude that moment at @13:45 my ears perked up and went "that sounds like a Keith Merrow approach"... Right there with you. This is cool as F.

27:17 ooh that note with the chord change on the guitar noiiice spine tingling 😀😀

I haven't even started the video yet but I gotta say it... "It's the most beautiful time of the yeeeeaaar"

I'm not a muso, and will never write a song, but watching Trey putting together his vision is fascinating. I appreciated his comment about pushing through your first cuts to get to the good stuff. Great advice, and true of all artistic endeavours. 👍

YES!! Waited a long long time for this! You should do this more often! Really enjoy these kind of videos!

Awesome mate. Dial into the silliness that you shine in during your songwriting roasts etc 🧠🤛🤛

Woohoo! I was just thinking about this series the other day and wondered if it was scrapped. Glad to see it again!

Rolling dice to make songs! These are my favorites and I've been meaning to try it myself

Lol I love that Trey somehow thinks that the neck beardiest mall ninja incel costume is cooler XD.

I don't watch these often, but I do find myself having the one you did with Adam stuck in my head a lot. Also, halfway now and this one looks promising!

Truly love these videos. I get so inspired every time. Sounds awesome 🤘🤘

the chorus sounded muse as hell and I LOVED IT

Great work on this one. The end product is great.

Man, this was so insightful! Very cool! Love how you explained what you're doing and why. Great approach in this situation.

Halfway through the video and all I can think of is "this song should be on the Castlevania soundtrack"

Trey this was a great video ! I learned a lot watching you, thanks !

Ah, Mt favorite series. Can't wait to watch!

Man, this show is so cool! Kudos!

This was great!

DAAAAMN THAT MELLOTRON!!!! Big Elf vibes!

Your Amazing Trey!

This is cool as hell!

Ooooh!! This is going to be good!! 😍 I'm glad you are only using your dark wizard powers to create tasty jams.

Great video, great song. Long time coming for a random drum grooves song. 🤘🤘🤘

Brilliant. Sweet editing btw

Nice editing on this one!

That intro (specificly the attire) went from "me and my friends recreated lord of the rings in my backyard on a handy cam" to "me and my friends recreated blade runner in my backyard on a handy cam" lol

This is freaking badass

Thanks for the DAW tips. I can see actually using three tracks to write riffs

that TN goes hard. very Monty Python

I like your dice method better as I get to roll more shiny math rocks :D I have a dedicated set of Muzoracle d12s and it has some crazy tarot cards, too, but iirc it's mostly for things like chord progressions and keys :)

This is sick, guys.

so cool when record such small sections of the song, crazy bro 😎 when I do that it gets off the rails

that discarded part at 6:03 sounds soooo epic and i prefer that over wjat trey put in later oddly enough. havent seen tje full vid yet, so we'll see how it turns out

Would love to see a video about your opinion on the Post-Metal pack

Major Dream theater feel

0:40 He became WWFs undertaker!

nice Series, also the vocal part...nice! how much is the box "protecting" the outsider from the voice...maybe in Db..

How DND players write songs. Ps. Love the Keith Merrow mention.

I'm 18 mins in and looking forward to how you are gonna write or compose catchy vocals hooks / melodies

Now roll for initiative

I was wondering why on earth does this seem so fast but I am watching at 1.5x the speed 😆😆

AI generated metal : more like Tre-I generated metal 🙌🙌

Cool stuff. Maybe I have overlooked something - but is the complete song somewhere?

If you really play D&D you should join or start a live play cast. I would watch, it should be awesome!

Trey, have/do you ever play DnD? Cus i cant tell if your acting is based on parody or experience with DnD haha. Man id love your answer tp be "both" 🤘🤘

Roll dice and just use drum fills only. Then write a song over that. That would be a challenge.

So good I could “die” eh? Get it? 🤦🏻‍♂️

So, expert mode is the time signature, chord progression, key changes, and song structure are also chosen by random rolls?

Isn't this just a more complicated version of the arbiter method?

How long do u reackon this song took you to write?

we did this with breakdowns and playing cards like 10-12 years ago metal sucks covered it lolol

So would this song be good enough to go on an album of yours? If no what would it need? In other words just a cool fun song you made up or something more...

Hey Trey have you/would you do one of these as an instrumental? I would like to see how you approach a top line from guitar standpoint

I want to try this , can anybody tell me what dice to buy? Is it just a set of D&D dice, thanks in advance

where's the music video?

So, ahhhhh, where is the fuckin song?

What are you tuned in please and thanks

Trey, I have been a DM for about 3 years now. If you ever feel the need to play D&D 5E I am up to DM some one shots or some shit. Online.

Again?!

You're an insert NPC, that's what you are. ;)

There is someone under that desk vaping for the smoke effect.

I got your Guga reference too

HARRY DRESDEN!
