„Explainable, but not doable“. Sums it up perfectly 😂

You might be interested by the Unplugged version, you can see clearly all the finger wizardry from Tim

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

yes, just watched it, amazing stuff! 😮

@nickforsyth5887 Год назад

To add, give all their play throughs a watch. The sound quality and ability to actually see what their doing is incredible. Neurotica, playing god, chimera, all have full playthrouroughs. Not to mention polyphia releases all their tabs for sale🤘🏼

@lasagnahog7695 Год назад

Also Clay A's drums have their own video so as to properly salivate over that amazing fill.

@elcoolhaag7737 Год назад

i have seen like 100 musicians reacting to polyphia cause i like how each one has their own opinions on why polyphia is amazing, urs was the most entertaining!

@lasagnahog7695 Год назад

"Explainable but not doable" is a great explanation of Polyphia. They are technically virtuosic while maintaining listenability that allows non-musicians like me to really get into them. And then I can come to youtube and see a musician break down the technical aspects. It's why all of their videos make it to so many reaction channels.

@Tehasce Год назад

ive watched ton of reactions to their songs, and no one ever notices some of the details you do, i was also mesmerised by the arpegios you mentioned at the end. Great job, and keep it up !

@whatifindbeautiful Год назад

He summed it up in the first bars. "Yep, that was too much information. "

@makokuma7881 Год назад

Nooo! You stopped it too soon, would have loved to see your reaction to their a capella version haha. As a serious guitarist you should look at their playthrough versions of their songs as well. You’ll get to see every note played with all camera focus on the guitar. Clay the drummer has some too that are phenomenal.

@carpediem3991 Год назад

Looking at your guitar and shoulder shrugging is the best way to explain this band lmao

@m0th3rst4r Год назад

Love your breakdown Stu! Start simple to find your way in. Very cool. These guys admit they play parts with as many notes as possible. Lol.

@andrejzizek4290 10 месяцев назад

dude, it was a joy listening to it with you :)

@albertjoshuavega4434 Год назад

Your reaction to polyphia is just like mine man. Like a half hour a track lol

@MrBDB001 Год назад

Polyphia is a true headache for teachers because the amount of harmonics and advanced picking combined with his sheer speed and technical expertise is beyond what I learned when I first took up the guitar. It is truly inspiring but holy hell do I need to work my butt off and find another ten hours a day to practice. Time to get to work since I have students interested in playing this well.

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

so true, I don't bump into it too often with students, mine tend to run really young and first guitar lessons or old blokes like me who still listen to 70/80/90's music... so seeing this stuff come through has been quite the education and is super fun to have new guitar things that I never knew existed to try out! But oh yeah, it's a brave new world for sure!

10:40 that bass drum knock knock knock

@photobyhe Год назад

Love your reactions!!! Keep up the great work! now let's do more Polyphia please lol

@alessandro6733 Год назад

Your reaction are crazy good man! Loved the video and explanations

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

Thanks man, I really appreciate that !

@Victoriant1 Год назад

Would love to see you react to Tim's playthrough as others mentioned. You're the first person who's pick up of what they were doing actually sounded anything like it. Really enjoyed that!

@Erra66 Год назад

your reactions are great, you deserve more likes. people dont have enough attention span these days

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

Thank you! You made my day! 😃😃

@funvidman Год назад

I found your enthusiasm extremely engaging. Subbed.

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

Awesome, thank you!

@TrifMusic Год назад

Love these guys

@jamesbell8861 Год назад

I really love it when people get as excited about this song and it's execution as I did when I first heard it. When you figure out that acapella version first then you can start playing along with the unplugged play though. With tablature. Eventually you will be able to sing and play the song together at a party ... where your friends will feel like you are completely MAD and have you committed to a Loony Bin for your own protection. The mad genius of these kids is priceless. ❤❤❤

@jamesbell8861 Год назад

It's hard to believe that this masterpiece is arguably only the 3rd or 4th best song on the album. The issue is that every time I re-listen to any song in particular on this album I hear more of the underlying rhythms and counter melodies and it's all a sudden my new favorite song for a minute. And then I go back 10 years and there's still things I hear that I missed. You talked about the drum fill that kept giving ??? ... that was like the prefect analogous euphemism for the band's entire body of work.

@williamroark Год назад

You can LISTEN 10,000 TIMES!!!😳 These guys are PHENOMENAL!!!!

@onsesejoo2605 Год назад

70's fusion group Return To Forever crosses to my mind, especially the piece "Romantic Warrior" which is a title track of the album as well.

@e-zward9019 Год назад

Now, all they need is a lead singer.

@nomercyriding Год назад

This is great. You seem to really understand what is going on throughout the track.

@Sheldon.Williams Год назад

you should check out his unplugged version of this...

@Arin4Life Год назад

If I ever play a guitar again, I'll ask you to be my guitar teacher😀And please upload your reaction to Acapella version!! It would also be nice if you could check their 'Chimera' playthrough.

@rafaelbarros1216 Год назад

they are doing some playthrough versions for those songs, you should probably check out tim's version of this song and maybe include it in the video when you react to more of their new songs

@adamscott4199 Год назад

Also kinda like Al Dimeola smooth sound

@romeoromo-kt5vn 5 месяцев назад

Is Flamenco progressive!

@jameswood240 Год назад

You should react to neurotica band play through. Keep up the good work mate

@JZhaoRen Год назад

Natural harmonics are their signature sound. That's why everything that makes heavy use of it will be in e minor key. E.g even though Ego Death is in d minor key they just tune a step down to have those harmonics available.

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

Yes, it's so cool. Something I'm going to have to practice!

@Morstius Год назад

Would be sick to see you check out Jason Richardson - Tendinitis

@Morstius Год назад

@shdkssjd he already has

@theguitarexplorium Год назад

😂 It was your suggestion that inspired it too! So thanks for that!

@peetiegonzalez1845 Год назад

Some other Youchoobers can actually play these parts. and THAT I find mindblowing. I'm sure you'll pick it up, if you try, but there is no way in hell I would ever be able to play this.

@peetiegonzalez1845 Год назад

I'd say it's "understandable" because it's not deep jazz roots like Vai's stuff. Let's not forget Vai was a Jazz theorist and transcribed for Zappa before he became a "famous guitarist". It's just that Henson and Polyphia come at this from a completely different angle and subvert all those expectations.
