Talking Guitar with Josh Travis of Glass Cloud 

50 Djent has the most bizarre tuning I've ever seen.

They seriously couldn't find a better amp for him to use?

Unfortunately his skill really isn't demonstrated well here. Josh is actually a pretty good tech metal guitarist, but the fact that he plays large chords at such a low tuning means that most cameras aren't going to pick up the tone of his instrument well. Listen to Glass Cloud's professionally-recorded work, he's much cleaner and you can actually hear him on the records.

The fact that they gave this poor man a 15-watt practice amp to demonstrate the tone of a 9-string guitar in this video will always hurt me.

"nothing too gnarly... 30 inch scale" Hahaha righteo djent

Why does he have an oreo in his ear?

16 djents sharp

Josh is the king of brutal, dissonant heaviness. You really have to hear it in the context of the rest of the band.

I accidentally kicked this guy in the face at a show. I was crowd surfing and got tossed on stage and my foot just hit him on the way down. Sorry man.

The lack of musical appreciation in the comment section is sad

To think Josh Travis went from Danza, To Glass Cloud & now Emmure.

Before you bash his playing, check out the amp at

I miss DANZA. :(

His tracking for Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza blows this out of the water.

What is that fucking tone jesus christ

How the fuck did he come up with a tuning like that?

I don't get the hate here. His tone is shit here because of a 10w Ibanez amp, listen to any of his stuff and you will know he's a very impressive guitarist.

50 DJENT

Why have him play through such a shit amp?

What idiot gave him a 10 watt amp?
