Jesus Christ... fucking amazing I literally have a tear in my eye because hopefully there is going to be hope for the new generation of metal musicians.
He is 16 (15 in the video) but yes, even for that age this is incredible playing. Also major props to this guy for learning it by ear, that's amazing in itself.
allow me to cry at the sight of an even younger Ryan still destroying me at guitar ;~; GOOD THING I HAVE TIME THESE DAYS TO ACTUALLY PLAY...I don't, and it's unfortunate. Really stellar Ryan, I loved your Pale Aura cover.
Yo dude I've been following your covers for a while now and they're always so good. Congrats on getting recognition from both Wes and Periphery/Misha themselves! Good job
Oh my god, what an amazing cover dude. It's absolutely amazing, and you figured it out perfectly! Seriously, great job! You did a sweet job on the solo too, it's perfect!
You're absolutely incredible at guitar for your age. I wish that you lived ANYWHERE close and we able to be in a touring band. NEVER give up on guitar or music man.
I didn't mean the content of the song, I was talking about ryan, and the fact that he's playing stuff like this at his age and doing a damn good job at that. The force is strong with this one :)
It's all about the still-developing mind. He's at a younger age so learning new materials is super easy for him. Glad to see he's taken advantage of that stage in life.
Dude, luck has nothing to do with this. You've clearly worked your ass off to have this kinda skill, and you deserve the endorsements you're getting from it. Freaking AMAZING job. And beautiful ESP by the way. :D
Dude I could not imagine being praised both by the members of Periphery and Wes Hauch, that's pretty amazing for you, but very much deserved - awesome cover, expect great things of you! XD
The main reason Misha is as good of a writer/player as he is now is he was heavily influenced by Dreamtheater and John Petrucci, hes said himself he learned most of his technique from playing DT covers and learning the solos.. So with that being said you've been taking in alot of awesome technique by learning these periphery songs man! i cant wait to hear some original material!!
Protest the Hero poster, Animals as Leaders t-shirt in other videos and Periphery guitar cover. If this guy doesn't get recognition, the music industry is missing out. Great to see someone so young have such a broad taste and play so well.
You, sir, are quite an amazing guitarist. I'm almost 19, and even though I used to think I was pretty good, you've proven to me that I really need to practice more. :> You're really a wonderful inspiration. Keep working at it and maybe you'll be one of the better artists in the world some day! P.S. How the hell did you learn this by ear? I can't learn the first 5 seconds by ear. :0
Amazing Guitar cover! Congratulations you made it through the song! And that is a feat itself! Inspirational performance! As a fellow Progressive Metal and Classical Guitar player I give you props for your hard work! Keep rocking, and play loud and practice hard! \m/ 0.0 \m/
Look you guys, yes he is Asian but that is not the reason that he is a good guitar player, he is a good guitar player because he clearly puts a lot of time into his playing and it shows in his videos. So just stop being so ignorant and appreciate the effort he is putting into these videos he is making for us
Sometimes i wanna listen to this song i put your cover haha, nice bro, i learn this by your tab ;), keep on this bro.: PD: Can you teach me how you record? I mean, the cam grab the sound or you record it to a pc?
Unreal job man, seriously impressed!
Jesus Christ... fucking amazing I literally have a tear in my eye because hopefully there is going to be hope for the new generation of metal musicians.
Nice work dude!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Can't wait to hear some of your own compositions n the future!
this is flawless. fantastic. over 9000.
I'm 17 and there is no way I could even begin to learn most of what you just played. Good job man!
He is 16 (15 in the video) but yes, even for that age this is incredible playing.
Also major props to this guy for learning it by ear, that's amazing in itself.
The video that got me into Periphery 2, yourself and Polaris all in one. RIP mate and thank you for everything ❤
Learning that by ear is amzing. so precise. Awesome job bro
I am literally in awe of this. One, you can do this all by ear, and two, you provide the tabs for us. Keep it up man!
You're incredible, man. Congrats on the Periphery shoutout! If you're this good at 15, i can't even imagine where you'll be in 10 years....
allow me to cry at the sight of an even younger Ryan still destroying me at guitar ;~;
GOOD THING I HAVE TIME THESE DAYS
TO ACTUALLY PLAY...I don't, and it's unfortunate.
Really stellar Ryan, I loved your Pale Aura cover.
This right here is the future of metal... and for the first time I'm not absolutely terrified. Great job kid!
Yo dude I've been following your covers for a while now and they're always so good.
Congrats on getting recognition from both Wes and Periphery/Misha themselves! Good job
Holy shit dude. You KILLED it! Congrats man. You're so good Periphery posted this on their social media sites.
Oh my god, what an amazing cover dude. It's absolutely amazing, and you figured it out perfectly! Seriously, great job! You did a sweet job on the solo too, it's perfect!
You're absolutely incredible at guitar for your age. I wish that you lived ANYWHERE close and we able to be in a touring band. NEVER give up on guitar or music man.
Wow, this is...just wow. You have an incredible talent! Probably the best cover I've seen on UA-cam.
I didn't mean the content of the song, I was talking about ryan, and the fact that he's playing stuff like this at his age and doing a damn good job at that. The force is strong with this one :)
It's all about the still-developing mind. He's at a younger age so learning new materials is super easy for him. Glad to see he's taken advantage of that stage in life.
R.I.P. Ryan, thanks for inspiring me all this years
I'd love to see anything you'll be making in the future man! GOOD LUCK! You're a very nice addition to metal
So great i had to post it on Periphery's wall! You just keep getting better and impressing me dude
My favorite track off of the album and you nailed it! Keep them coming!
The Gods Must Be Crazy!? Pshh, you be effin' crazy! Posting a damn near perfect video 2 days after the album drops. Mad props to you!
Omg...stop it!
He´s too skilled. My eyes and ears can´t handle such epicness...System overwhelmed! Initiate self-destruction...
3...2...1 BOOM !!!
Get this kid a 7 & 8 string so he can cover the rest of the album, best Periphery cover on the tube bro!
Dude, luck has nothing to do with this. You've clearly worked your ass off to have this kinda skill, and you deserve the endorsements you're getting from it. Freaking AMAZING job.
And beautiful ESP by the way. :D
Dude I could not imagine being praised both by the members of Periphery and Wes Hauch, that's pretty amazing for you, but very much deserved - awesome cover, expect great things of you! XD
True natural talent at it's finest!!! Keep rockin lil dude!!!!!
You're good man! I like the sound as well :) keep it up!
Way to go brother! You are already killing it - keep it up!
hey kid!! this is awesome... absolutely perfect and professional ;-) congratulations! one question!! what is your tuning?? :-)

I loved them!! Wish they'd have 'caught on'. Great talent, awesome sound.
Dude, These tabs are amazing! Thanks for putting the out. Helping me alot!

/your fellow guitarist
yuuhuu! Thx for your GP5 tab dude, everything is gpx on ultimate guitar...
Use tux guitar to convert it into gp5
You flawlessly played my favorite periphery song. Love this cover
Holy cow. This is so dope. Mad props to you my friend!
nothing anyone can say can describe how clean and tight and...well, perfectly you play. can't wait to see what happens!
crazy. so young. so talented. such good work. way to go.
You never quit impressing me.
The main reason Misha is as good of a writer/player as he is now is he was heavily influenced by Dreamtheater and John Petrucci, hes said himself he learned most of his technique from playing DT covers and learning the solos.. So with that being said you've been taking in alot of awesome technique by learning these periphery songs man! i cant wait to hear some original material!!
I still love this.
Dude, this is friggin' awesome! Keep playin', you're gonna go places, i'm sure!
super clean tone, AND YOUR GUITAR SOUNDS OVER THE BACKTRACK, not as the most of the people covering this style
12/10 buddy!
As another said....this just scares me. holy Crap, dude. When I was your age I was still struggling to pull off Van Halen. You inspire me.
kid you are an absolute beast!! absolutely amazing!
Protest the Hero poster, Animals as Leaders t-shirt in other videos and Periphery guitar cover. If this guy doesn't get recognition, the music industry is missing out. Great to see someone so young have such a broad taste and play so well.
Dude so freaking beautiful :D im proud ryan. good job!
My god this cover is just flawless. SO fucking clean dude :D!
Thanks for the tab! I'm practicing this song right now. Keep up the great effort!
good job man!,keep it up cant wait to see more. I love this album!!!!!!
Absolutely incredible. You just earned yourself a subscriber sir.
Trying to learn this... It's so much harder than I thought it would be... Great job man!
dude.. props for tabbing this shit out.. you are the man.
this is some crazy riffing! talented guy! keep up the good work !!
You, sir, are quite an amazing guitarist. I'm almost 19, and even though I used to think I was pretty good, you've proven to me that I really need to practice more. :> You're really a wonderful inspiration. Keep working at it and maybe you'll be one of the better artists in the world some day!
P.S. How the hell did you learn this by ear? I can't learn the first 5 seconds by ear. :0
Terrific job, man. Mad respect for you.
EMG, Misha, and the periphery page shared this. This kid is going places if he starts writing his own material(which I'm pretty sure he has)
Pretty perfect man, nice one working it out by ear this quickly.
Dude your so young you can only get better and never stop man
he's only struggling to hold the guitar up while playing it in a computer chair. you're the king.
You have a Protest the Hero poster in the background of a cover you are playing for Periphery. You my friend, are a beast. \m/
Man, I wish all my covers sounded clean like that. Amazing job!
This is awesome, man. Very good work!
Dude, no kidding...impressive! Keep up the good work!!!!
Amazing Guitar cover! Congratulations you made it through the song! And that is a feat itself! Inspirational performance! As a fellow Progressive Metal and Classical Guitar player I give you props for your hard work! Keep rocking, and play loud and practice hard! \m/ 0.0 \m/

Absolutely amazing.
Awesome as always dude!!!!!!!!!
You're about to become something really big!
- See ya live with periphery!
Look you guys, yes he is Asian but that is not the reason that he is a good guitar player, he is a good guitar player because he clearly puts a lot of time into his playing and it shows in his videos. So just stop being so ignorant and appreciate the effort he is putting into these videos he is making for us
Sick cover little guy! You've got quite a bright future, that's for sure.
Periphery shared this video on their FB page. Congratz!
