Learning incubus riffs is how I learned to play guitar. They're some of the most unique and well written in all of rock music, without being super flashy and technical - great writing from einziger.
Sorry but a lot of times his riffs are super technical and flashy at times. I’m guessing you aren’t a guitarist. That breakdown from Pistola is very Alex Lifeson from Rush.
@@kingsecho3351 i said in the original comment "i learned to play guitar..." so, no dude, i am a guitarist. and einziger is very good, he's one of my favorites ever, but he's not a shredder or virtuoso. His stuff is awesomely written and does require some dexterity once in a while, but mostly it's not that technical. I could play most incubus songs within the first year of picking up the guitar. A solo like on priceless or sick sad little world obviously needs some accuracy and speed so yea to pull those off you gotta be able to actually play, but that is the minority of incubus' catalog
My opinion, this guy is one of the best songwriters and creative guitarists to come through the industry in the last 20 years. He's so quite and humble that you wouldn't know it.
I just wanted to send out a thanks to everyone who is making these videos happen. It's very rare to see a band do this kind of thing. This is fucking awesome.
Totally awesome. Thanks Mike for inspiring so many of us with such amazing talent, enthusiasm, and willingness to share. I absolutely love what you're doing. Thank you!
Mike, you are sending me off into the sunset , everytime i see you play... its beautiful... thanks for playing songs im sick of watching incubus covers that are so wrong , and (its hard to figure it out just by ear which i perfer to do) so thanks for breaking songs down, your the only person who can do it perfect yay to mike !
I feel blessed seeing these guys, I caught not 1 but 2 of Mikey's signature picks, thanks for that, Pistola is one of the best songs ever fckn created, Mike's genius guitar riffs are so unique and the rest of the band compliments eachother so fckn well godamn they are on fire. that riff with the drums Jose is crazy insane, ting, ting ting, ting ting, ting ting ting ting , Pistola. incubus is a hell of a phenomenon. what a ride❤️🔥💯🕉️☮️☯️♾️🤘💀🤘 thank you INCUBUS.
He needs his knobs up high and the switches down low. That would be awesome. Like a DJ table for the pedals and foot switches on the ground to turn them on and off.
Ya know what tutorial you need? Dirk teachin' somethin' heavy like,... uhhh,... Certain Shade of Green or Sink Beneath the Line. The verse part to Green has been giving me trouble and the solo for Sink I also can't get. Ben is a great bassist, I just prefer Dirk. Also, Mike, you're great! Keep being awesome!
This guy is insane!! i wouldn't call this a tutorial tho lol, u would have to be epic to be able to play pistola from that video! more of just a fascinating insight of how the songs put together!
i wish he would go down as an important musician so much but people don't appreciate today's legends anymore!! they all rave about the shit 'artists' that lack any talent :/
