what's sad is that its not even half as hard as mixing and recording

I disagree. The learning curves are completely different, in that guitar is a physical skill, something that just requires practice, where recording/mixing is a mental/intuitive skill. You need some basic knowlege, and the rest is all trial and error. I've invested about the same amount of time into each, and I can record and mix an album, but I can't play what Jake just did.

All concluded with importance of practice

+Chris McCartney ^

What I experience is the opposite of that. When I see what a guitarist is doing it becomes much easier to me. It's like watching how a magic trick is done.

By ear. None of them are trained or well versed in music theory past the basics. They just play what sounds and feels good to them.

MrMrJacobzon pretty simple, really.

Use extended chord voicings, play weirdly timed phrases/syncopation and turn them around so they can fit into 4/4 time, learn some key modulation, advance your technique repertoire (tapping, hammer ons, wide interval slides), get familiar with this playing style as it involves a lot of open strings, and of course lots of practice. I'm sure I'm missing other key characteristics and I mostly covered guitar stuff but those are some of the things that stick out to me.

@@RobertoReyesChHC I would add that sometimes keep things a little bit abstract.

Juan Hernandez jake Bowen is one of JP brothers so he kinda is ahead of the rest

MarkToast This made me lol really hard XD

Holy fuck I am DECEASED 5/7 best periphermeme

10/10

Hahahahahah!

fuckin hell, this made me laugh out loud

kbleskate throwback

that's an 8 string

Jamison Grandy thats a 7 string

Jamison Grandy it's a 7 string

bro it's a 7 string

Pretty sure the band gave him the tabs, sounds spot on actually :O

+o3ix I'm pretty sure he learned this song from the producer pack.

I think it was pretty original too thanks

lol

nah man, this guy's a nut, terrible cover

the Icarus lives video XD

Garrett Thompson Rrrrrrragtime dandies!

Read in the voice lol

you stole my comment good sir!

+Kieran Morris I am terribly sorry good sir but I am also familiar with ragtime dandies

This is apparently a gag I'm not privy to.....

In certain album versions of Icuras Lives! there is a gag at the end called Ragtime Dandies that lists all the band members in a comical fashion

search youtube for periphery ragtime dandies

But what if I poured sticky sticky syrup all over his body.

Bowen laughs at your laws of physics

:(

I heard Jake is an expert in Gravity and Friction

That's what his girlfriend says too! I kid, I love this guy

More new album playthroughs pleasee

I think both him and mark are under appreciated. Just look at a lot of their most popular songs. Either written by one of them or features a solo by one of them

Droid96 I 100% agree man!

Ever since I know the band Jake and Mark always caught my eye for some reason. Misha is a really impressive musician, no doubt, but there's something about those 2 guys that really makes me appreciate their playing a lot.

thats cause mark's way fucking over rated

even gods make mistakes, apparently

@@JeremiahFernandez I think I am one of them

@@ryancozzolino7832 ryan. Just because you make mistakes doesn't mean you're a god. There's only one god and he's somewhere on youtube. See if you can find him.

@13_cmi you seem to misunderstand my comment. I by no means was claiming that I was a god...

@@ryancozzolino7832 ah it sounded a lot like you were. My bad. But still the one god that exists is on youtube.

Or maybe it's the Petrucci-level beard.

Skylark maybe it runs in the family

Kyle Kean he is incredibly sweet in person!! He's like a teddy bear :3

Confirmed, Jake is super cool and funny. Also yes to the apparent lack of emotion. It's the beard though. When it reaches that level, the only emotion you truly feel is beard.

Maybe it's Maybelline

The cosplay and cover is spot-on

Big Bad Buzz I bet this poser even has the same parents as Jake.

And his beard, he copied even Jake's beard!

I'll bet he'll even claim that John Petrucci is his uncle too.

I think he even copied his DNA...what a poser.

Crescent moon

Bow ...en ;)

EthanMayFilms Titan is saturn's largest moon

lmao can't see anything else now haha

EthanMayFilms it's a fingernail :p

DueIistGio thats hilarious

@@RudyAyoub hello adobe

@@RudyAyoub that’s hilarious

Mine is 4:51 which is still very beginner.

I hope it improved since you posted this comment! :)

pretty sure that's his signature model

yup, it's JBM-100

Igor Dranichnikov isn't the Jbm-100 a 6 string?

Check out the Music Man Majesty

Idk I find Private Stock PRSes to be much more elegant and beautiful (and expensive)... (not saying that this guitar isn't beautiful)

more like ready for bankruptcy :D

Chrystian Pinheiro I'll settle for the 7 string matte orange Misha Jackson. That thing looks insane

Chrystian Pinheiro Jake has an 8 string like this one?

Garret, actually he dont... damn i really thought that he had...

***** Great

With everyone, not just a single part

I want to see that fret work in real time.

habitual = habis kentu mual

Ashley Cook i think he ´s not, his amazing work with periphery and crazy electronics stuff in solo show us how amazing is his talent

+cyssou He is completely underrated compared to Misha and Mark. No one really mentions Jake much at all when talking about Periphery, that's what's sad about it.

who underrates him? I feel like all of the periphery guitar players are largely regarded as fantastic and rightly so

Lel Yep, I just realized I already watched it!!!

(Solo stuff like this)

That would be interesting

No, but I'm pretty sure a fan named Spencer will cover the song almost as good as Spencer

Dave certainly doesn't mean "EVERY BAND nowadays"

Dave mustaine's opinions are as a bucket full of fingernails. Absolutely useless yet bothersome to no end.

@@JuanPalomoM i suppose yours is worth a lot more right?

@@HugoPaulo about the same. That's why i know. I recognise my own kin when i see it

@@JuanPalomoM sir i respect you
