"come and get me!" 😂😂 I love Dan. That happens so much more often than people realize, I definitely remember ripping off some techniques and licks from Lead Sails, Paper Anchor back in the day jamming with friends.
Great guys. Dan Jacob’s is so well spoken. I grew up listening to Atreyu and I always wanted his signature ESP with the blood stains across it. Still don’t have it though. Loved everything about his style and riffs. Good to see this band is still going.
To hear them admit their weaknesses and to be humble like that is fucking awesome. They have definitely accomplished a lot in the music world, especially as guitarists coming from a genre that was the opposite of mainstream at the time. The skill they possess as song writers is something I wouldn’t trade for all the technical skill in the world! Def shaped my teen years.
Being a huge EVH fan and a huge Atreyu fan when I first learned Right Side of the Bed and got to that part of the solo Panama immediately clicked into my head. It wasn't lost on me!
Dan is one of my favorite guitarists of all time. So influential to me growing up learning guitar. Still have and will never part with his ESP signature model guitar!
This is some truly wholesome stuff, glad to see these guys still obviously love the grind to getting "Good" at guitar even as skilled as both of them are!
the bridge of This Flesh is a Tomb, combined with the right recreation substances, will launch you into orbit and send you on a journey through the stars. Hands down the most uplifting ephemeral chord progression ever produced.
Got to play in a band for a very short time with Trav in 2018. I’m mediocre at best and Travis had zero ego, and was always rad and never made me feel Inadequate. Such a great player and a great guy.
That section and creature means the world to me. I know they played a multiple times in the song, but when they say "if you close your eyes tight enough and none of the bad can get in but if you close your eyes tight enough then none of the light can get in" really spoke to me as an angsty 14 year old
Love the fact that they give credit to Green Day. Massive fan of these guys, Right Side of the Bed was the first Atreyu song i heard and ive been a fan ever since
Right side of the bed is the song that got me into heavy music. Every time I’ve heard Panama the solo sounds familiar to me, now I know it’s because it sounds like right side of the bed lol the opposite order most would think I suppose
Hah. I'm currently working on learning "Fade to Black". Metallica is a perfect band for beginners. I'm paraphrasing but in an interview with Rick Beato, Kirk stated that he tries to make music that sounds good but is actually fairly simple to play.
I don’t know their names but the gent on the left seems to be a great person to have a conversation with because he focuses on the other guy when he talks or does his thing; whereas the guy on the right almost spaces out. EQ
@@lucapriati246 no problemo, start with their early stuff and move up for sure, I’m not too into the new stuff since their singer left, but their drummer/vocalist Brandon took over on vocals and they enlisted a drummer to fill that void, it’s a direction shift for sure but that’s life lol
While Dan definitely seems like a great guy, I don't think Travis is spacing out. I just think it's easier for some people to focus on eye contact. Travis comes across as a lot more introverted. But I used to absolutely love this band back when I was younger, lot of great songs and catchy choruses
Is there a cat near by these guys in the video someplace? Either that or there is one near me. Just outside my apartment as I don't have one currently.
Guitars without headstock should be outlawed and people that play them should be banned from ever playing guitar again. All I can think about when I see them is like lame 80s bands. Duran Duran or Kajagoogoo
I can't get into anything past Lead Sails. Tried many times. Seems like most of their favorite music they've written was older shit, and when Alex was still the frontman. Ironic isn't it? Almost like they should have just continued that path, and not booted Alex..
This band is probably the worst live band I’ve EVER heard. It made me lose respect for them cause I used to like them. The singer is what sucked so bad. Off key and forgetting words
