Jake Weber a lot of trial and error

Sometimes you dont write it. Play something with a small idea in mind and elaborate as you go.

theres a little video tim henson uploaded of him writing two parts on piano, one chording and one melody, then playing both parts together on guitar. The piano bit sounds pretty simple and very good, but when he transferred to whole lot to the guitar it turns into the kind of thing we hear here. From there I think they just start embelleshing and taking liberties with the riff until its all wacky and all over the place. Amazing.

@Mike Schwab at 0:18 he starts playing at 0:36 he repeats the whole guitar part that he began with

@Mike Schwab who ever gave riffs a specific duration though?

How much should we flex our skills? Tim: yes

how badass do you wanna make the video look? Tim: yes

Literally so synchronized it blows your mind but they are keeping the song together

ive been thinking about this comment for 2 weeks

as a non musical person i really don't understand these type of comments , what do you mean they are synchronized? of course they are, isn't that the whole purpose of a band? they are supposed to do that, like imagine if the guitarist and the bassist were playing two different songs and they weren't even in the same tempo , of course they are synchronized that's the only way to make music as a band i don't get it

@@carrythetorch33 yea, of course. you have to. the song was made in a DAW (digital audio workstation aka music making app software) because that's how Henson makes his songs. The inspiration for it was hip hop, lol. EDIT: it's played by them, in the studio. but the "plan" was made in a DAW

They sound sample accurate. Nevertheless... they have a live show, and he's a good drummer.

Man always looks like he's having the time of his life too - so many songs just really shine cause of the small things he adds They're all fucking incredible at each instrument imo

@@GizzyDillespee You're just hearing the electronics effects he's putting on his kit. Usually people would sample to do that, but he's gone the extra mile to FX his kit out to make those sounds "live". Which is honestly more impressive.

Wtf is that username

I'd like your comment…but it's already at 666.

Basically. Usually with bands, there's one or two stand out members that are better musicians than the rest, but not with this band. The drums, the bass, the guitars: they're all masters of their respective crafts.

@@hannahlanai actually the drummer stands out cuz he's the only old-looking guy in the group lmao. Jokes aside I think in terms of skill the first guitarist stands out the most, the rest don't look too irreplaceable to me as a decently skilled person in that field can play what they're playing.

@@feelcollins4358 I believe the guitarist you're referring to is named Tim Henson, and yeah he's very technically talented. I still think that all of them are fairly masterful at their instruments, especially compared to the average skill level of musicians putting out music. They might not be "the best ____ player ever," but certainly a higher caliber than most. That's just my opinion though; I don't think there's any one correct opinion here, so I appreciate hearing yours too.

@@hannahlanai yeah i'm just pointing out henson guy cuz he really stands out in terms of skill, the rest well their skills are above average as you say but source: trust me there are a lot of above-average masters of musical instruments out there too and henson guy is still above even them imo

@@feelcollins4358 I'd love to hear suggestions of others if you have any you like- new, good music is always welcome. If you like Tim Henson's guitar, you should check out Ichika Nito if you haven't heard of him: kzfaq.info/love/q3Wpi10SyZkzVeS7vzB5Lw

​@@jeremyrafuse5330 It's very rhythmically complicated with lots of changing inversions around the same harmonic idea. It's certainly not a "mess" as it's uncannily in-time and technically proficient. I'm just sad you can't also enjoy this beautiful composition. Perhaps it's too progressive and you're a classic rocker?

@@Dracoriax I appreciate Tosin Abasi and Animals As Leaders a great deal. They're on a completely different level than these guys and more proficient.

@@jeremyrafuse5330 That's a fair assessment those guys are legends. I still think some kudos is to be given to these guys too. I think we can all agree the world would be better with more Abasi's/AAL and even not QUITE as good prog artists as Polyphia that are still preferable to the majority of pop music right now. Rock on brother and have a great day! You have great taste!

@@jeremyrafuse5330 yah but their songs just don't resonate as much as these guys. I really like animals, I think the sickest song they have is probably behaving badly. But I feel like polyphia just have something in their music that animals doesn't. Either way both bands are way better musicians I can ever dream to be.

Never heard this before now... Being a guitar player... I'm now a fan and have made it my mission to replicate those nasty, yet tasty riffs

I totally agree

Especially the vocals!

@@roachroachin7193 it s their style, u like it or not! i can t stop listening to this

Without vocals, gotta do something for 3 plus minutes. Not really "solos". ill admit, I'm almost 40 and I just didn't get this band at first. I'm comfortable enough to say that the younger generations are annihilating the boxes that even the most creative have constructed for ourselves back in the day. I used to say it has no hard or feeling or that it's 10 lb of s*** in the bag but really I could never think of doing it the way they do it. Lastly, I see a lot of people covering their licks or riffs and for a second it kind of has me thinking that what did you even so unique. But they created it. It's mind blowing and like I said I'm comfortable enough to say that they're doing things we just couldn't conceive when I was a kid.

I completely disagree with you. It seems pretty obvious to me, they gave that absolute animal sitting behind the kit in this video, WAY more of a spotlight than the rest. Am I the only one seeing this? I mean, if you go back and take a look... That glorious, sexy, machine of a drummer is in the spotlight for about 3 mins and 35 seconds. And the rest of them? Well, after watching it again I'm wondering if there are even any other band members... Seriously, I'm only seeing a drummer guys. Well, the video must have been shot inside of someone's pants... Since, I can only see the drummer, it's obviously taking place where he's at. It's pretty, again obvious to those of us with ears, that he's in the pocket. For the entire video. Something that deserves an award... and hell, also a REward, in and of itself, considering what exactly he's having to drum to. Someone give this man some ice cream, a noble piece prize.. for being the most noble *piece* of kit that any guitar player could hope to have in their arsenal. Dude is absolutely bonkers... I don't even play drums, I play guitar... Yet I know exactly where my eyes are every time I come to cum watching this video.
