Even though i knew Vai was coming from the title, this shot still made me really emotional. Much respect to one of the OGs that paved the way for guitar playing to advance the way it did, and so proud of the Polyphia boys for getting to where they to get let a living legend share their proverbial stage. Love everything about this tune and video!

Instead of doing his usual acrobatic wankery (in a good way), he lets the youngins do all the super technical stuff, and his solos are obviously not about trying to impress anyone but rather soulful singing parts meant to communicate transcendental emotional states or something along those lines instead.

Love the song, love the playing, love the players but with all due respect, I have to be honest, on the last few songs they've put out I'm not really liking the drum sounds. Kinda wimpy in my opinion. If you're going to use real drums and then process them to sound like a beat box, then just use a beat box. I get that they're trying to be different with the drum sound and they're trying to break new ground but personally, I'm just not feeling it. Sorry I know I'll be in the minority but that's how I feel.

As a fan of Joe Satriani and Steve Vai since teenage years, seeing Steve Vai on the Throne (where he belongs to) warms my heart and I liked this young band even more. Moreover, Henson said at younger ages that the music he wanna produce doesn’t exist yet, now I see it clearly. Clean phenomenal work young man.

That's the thing about that style of guitarists. You can find thousands of people who play technical stuff like Polyphia, but nobody but Steve Vai could play what he played and make it sound like it did. Reminds me of guys like Derek Trucks. Derek Trucks is one of a kind, nobody on Earth sounds like him. I think Steve Vai is the same way. He added another facet of character and musicianship that you just never hear on a Polyphia record, which is full of so many vast techniques already.

Literal chills when I see the shot of all 3 of them back to back. Absolutely unreal. No track has made me smile like this one has. I fucking love Polyphia.

Vai shows that after all these years he is still willing to push himself. Not easy to go into a room as "Steve Vai" with arguably the hottest guitar players on the planet and challenge yourself to do something new. He could easily just make a living playing For The Love of God to nostalgic oldschoolers but rather is willing to step out of his comfort zone. That is ego death. Same props too Polyphia for honouring Vai in such an authentic way, realising that they stand on the shoulders of giants.

@@x0j Hmm, smells like troll :D Seems like you just wanted to say something negative about the drumming here. That statement, in and of itself, is moot IMO... lol. "Heavily edited" isn't limited to just one individual's perspective regarding how you might define those 2 words. Is it not the case that a good amount of recorded music in general could be considered, as you might say, "heavily edited"? Haha nah, everybody just records and releases collections of raw tracks. No tampering at all, especially today with the many amazing tools easily at musician's disposal for sound creation. Maybe it's just me, but the way you worded that comment just seemed silly, and simply just for the purpose of expressing your personal displeasure with the music :)
