The way he was tearing it up during an impromptu set at the Sasquatch Music Festival, you'd barely notice that Jordan Cook, a.k.a. Reignwolf, broke a string midway through his fiery rendition of "In the Dark" - that is, until you saw the mangled remnants of his guitar, smoldering on the ground after he'd wrenched every wailing chord from its guts.
The Saskatoon native and recent Seattle transplant never misses a beat - literally. When he's not with a band, he accompanies himself on kick drum and makes enough noise to match a dozen metalheads. In this video, recorded at the artist campground between sets at the festival, Reignwolf causes a ruckus beside his RV and rousts a crowd of sleepy campers into dancing and cheering.

i can just imagine him at a Tiny Desk Concert, trying so hard not to break anything.

11 years later and this never gets old.

@VictoireBuffet 5 лет назад

It’s not open G but Open D(flat since he is usually playing in Eb) so DADF#AD (flat the notes to get the exactly same sound that he has). He is the king

@plebschmuck4132 7 лет назад

Well, in human history, sometimes, someone has to step up and kick some ass and set things back to what they should be. Hell, this guy's only began. There's a whole of 60 years ahead and I'm sure glad I'm going to live through it to.

@my.neighbor.mosquito 12 лет назад

One man with his voice, guitar, bass drum, no tuner and a broken string. That is how you do it!

@gypsytricia 6 лет назад

I love that his camper has his name on it...lol.

@SDouglasSmith 5 лет назад

Just saw him last week live. You have to go. You have to experience it. It's different and something you'll remember. This is real music with an edge to it. Play without a filter.

This is how I wish Jack White played all the time.

@TheGallantGentry 11 лет назад

I don't know why people are complaining about the women in the background. This video really sums up the music scene. Here is a guy out there, burning his candle from both ends, channeling hardcore blues right out of the gates of hell and what do you get but a few drunk women in the background. Such a perfect image. All you musicians who are just out there for fame and glory - to make it big - take note. You better enjoy what you're doing because often you are the only one watching it.

For those who have been asking he's playing in open D

@vsletten 11 лет назад

Dude you have no business listening to rock and roll, much less commenting on it. Reignwolf IS rock and roll. Epic.

@dashiellv 10 лет назад

Breaking a string is an oldschool Paganini trick. The Reignwölf umlauts stare right back at you.

@Mikhael08 11 лет назад

he nailed it - just check out a few more of his videos :D

@Karamvir24 11 лет назад

I get what you mean, but I think that being stripped down gives a totally awesome raw vibe.

@chuxn12 10 лет назад

Opened for Sabbath in Hellafux.

@PatchBishop 12 лет назад

Jon Snow's side job.

@MrNatzke1 12 лет назад

Reminds me of Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac.

@js93b 11 лет назад

The Hendrix comparison is super apt since some of those licks should seem really familiar.

@southrules 11 лет назад

Rocks like Jack White 12 years ago

@breadtoastmuffin 12 лет назад

what tuning is he using for this?

@wallaberto 11 лет назад

You sir, posted the second best comment ever.

@SpasticWafflesVideos 12 лет назад

What tuning is he in?

@Karamvir24 11 лет назад

It might sound rough to you, but if that is the effect he's going for then how can you say its not the right way? People say that about Hendrix, his style and the wah wah pedal. Its about the vibe, you either dig it or not, and his is redonculous!

@RyanCrase1 5 лет назад

Karamvir Bhagat it sounds tough because this is the 3rd song he played and the generator in our motor home couldn’t produce enough power....it ended up completely failing.

@shoestringconcerts 12 лет назад

MORE REVERB! haha

@thedownsides 4 года назад

Nobody present understood that this dude just did an end game rock performance. They shouldn't be clapping. They should be on their knees thanking.

Jack White Jibberish

@dakaneye 12 лет назад

who needs all 6 strings anyways?

@JasonBrossa 11 лет назад

I find it kinda funny how some people took such offense to my comment. I guess what I meant was that a starving musician which he is was reluctant to throw such a nice guitar down. Now if he were in say a band like The Who he could smash guitars all day long. I didn't claim to be awesome but then again my job isn't to play music his is. As far as authenticity I'm still on the fence about Reignwolf. I enjoy his music. Is he being sloppy on purpose or because he's great I don't know you decide.

@billhicks7034 5 лет назад

Ok I'm gonna clear this up. You're confusing sloppy, with extremely high tempo/beat/rhythm whatever u wanna call it, because if this is "sloppy" to you, it's because you cant follow the music fast enough to stay into the groove man....his solos are INSANE, LIKE HENDRIXS AND VAN HALENS, professionally tabbed out, would take like 35 pages the solo alone, most entire albums tabbed out dont have that many pages. AND probably most important of all, ITS SO MUCH BETTER LIVE, sound quality wise, than ur shit phone speakers, they'll always add more distortion, and with his sound, if u have a good ear, you can hear through the heaviest distortion, but your average music listener, non musician, their not familiar with it. They couldn't tell you the difference between a snare beat and Tom, or even a fucking cymbal from a hi-hat

@leloup6989 3 года назад

7 years later he’s touring with The Who...

@maureenmurphy156 11 лет назад

What girls?

@Kaarel456 11 лет назад

And so is your opinion. Loud or not, it is not a excuse for playing his instrument bad when actually he is capable to play many times better. If the point i missed is that he plays bad on purpose then i'm glad i missed it. Also LOUD doesn't equal good.

@claredickerson 9 лет назад

lol @ the white girls

@southrules 12 лет назад

Get rid of the earring dude...

@Kaarel456 11 лет назад

Most of these field recordings are really good songs. But this one was just not doing it. I bet he is a good musician but in this one the playing felt too sloppy and generally not very good. Some other videos i found of Reignwolf were definitely better.

@johnathanclift812 6 лет назад

One must allow for the fact that he was finishing a set at a major music festival, and was likely as high as giraffe pussy at the time. You weenie.

@lukashuettner 8 лет назад

Reignwolf developed from making badass new down to earth blues rock to just making noise....what the heck. Has Reignwolf flopped? researching new material of him shows too much poor noise.

@EquiNoxM 7 лет назад

He was experimenting with sounds he playing that close to an amp it's gonna be hard not to make a whole lot noise how he carved out notes being that close to an amp that loud is actually kid of impressive

@lukashuettner 6 лет назад

what in the world happened to this guy.....?! I mean, fuck! He started with an impact compared to an astroid hitting the planet of Rock 'N' Roll - and then, vanished into just playing gigs all over the world with the same songs all over again, talking he's making an album for about 4 years now. What's wrong here? What does the management and Cook are thinking? And another question: Will a future full size album then include all the now "old" songs? How tremendously UNsatisfying would that be?! How come that it takes sooooooooooooooo long for an ultra-talented man like Cook, to put some 11 songs on a damn record?

@billhicks7034 5 лет назад

@@lukashuettner because hes not playing this music because of, or for YOU specifically, if you cant tell, hes playing music because hes got something inside that, when you let it out, gives a high like no drug I've ever tried. (All of em)...except pcp, but I digress, my point? Hes playing for him, if you've never given everything you've got on stage it's very hard to understand. The high that is. I held back early on to, avoid arguments etc. But once we disbanded and I found a drummer who I could, have a, musical conversation with...well, we found out we had alot to "say" to each other and that project was much more successful. So I imagine hell always be playing live like this because it gives you a "high" like heroin,cocaine, and lsd all in one pill would. Indescribable.

@Kaarel456 11 лет назад

Nickelback also claims to be rock and roll but we can all see and hear what they are. So i didn't really get the point you were trying to make. Rock and roll played sloppy and below his actual skills is bad rock and roll. Rock and roll was not about playing bad last time i checked.
