I was introduce to post hardcore 2009. I got hooked on so many bands, but man, it's DGD that got me up until now. Jonny Craig era is my favorite although just slight points higher to Kurt and Tellian.
Yeah man same. Tillian is my favorite vocalist, will is my favorite guitarist and, and Tim is my favorite bassist. The of my top favorite musicians are in the same band lol they’re just that good
Thank you for this I'm actually gonna start using this video as a "DGD introduction video" whenever I recommend them to someone now haha makes it a lot easier 😅
I was gonna say “when did Jon grow a beard and I didn’t know he played guitar ?!” but then when I watched the video I realized you werent Jon Mess but that ok. Awesome guitar covers ! 🤟
I learned Betrayed By the Game not to long ago. Never would have expected it to be one of the tops songs as "difficult" but it was so fun to learn that's probably why it seemed so easy. Will is just a genius on bringing out the best in you.
This video really threw me through a wave of emotions and reminiscence holy fucc lmao hella surprised Chucky vs. tortoise was not included in this list, i had a tough time getting all those alternating riffs down for Chucky! Lol please do a Chucky cover 🔥🤙🏼🔥
Awesome video wow!!! I see son of robot didn’t make the cut due to god tier level haha. Some of the middle ones are red level for me, and some of the reds are way easier for me- but I like the difficulty factoring in the amount of techniques and positions.
These videos are tricky because it’s different for everyone but amount of techniques, positions, tempo:note duration, time sig/tempo changes all play into my ranking. And some really hard songs don’t get included because they might not have a definitive riff despite being a super tricky one to play all the way through.
Great video! Shows how little I know about guitar playing that I thought some of the earlier riffs looked harder than the middle levels haha. There’s a band called Ling Tosite Sigure who I think you’d have a lot of fun doing this sort of run with. Honestly one of the greatest, most unique guitarists around for my money.
@@TylerRossow oh hell yes. That’s an amazing song. And on their second and third albums: “manipulator” and “doppelgänger”... there’s a bunch of great songs.
@@TylerRossow it’s crazy how in guitar one person’s easy is another person’s hard! Like uneasy hearts main riff is kind rough on me lmao! It’s all love man
@@TylerRossow well watching your videos I think it would be a piece or cake for you hahah. I’ve been playing guitar for around 15 years and I still suck and doing these kind of riff lol
Check out my song ‘Hylian’ about the Legend of Zelda! 🤘🏻 FFO: DGD + Periphery
ua-cam.com/video/INBmnF_9SDM/v-deo.html
the dgd experience is so diverse thats what kept me hooked for sure. instrumentals to clean and dirty vocals, just harmonized perfectly
They are the perfect balance of everything! 🙌🏻
@@TheFrenchmanCooks Theres no autotune on tilians voice he sounds the same live as he does on record
I was introduce to post hardcore 2009. I got hooked on so many bands, but man, it's DGD that got me up until now. Jonny Craig era is my favorite although just slight points higher to Kurt and Tellian.
finally, someone notices the genius of Privilously Poncheezied, thank you sir
That one was way trickier than expected!
Surprised not to see Chucky Vs Giant Tortoise on here.. but this was a great video!👍
that song is so tough
It was probably over the difficulty scale lol
Same lmao still super well done tho
I'm not a guitar player, but the intro to Awkward also seems very challenging. Like a bunch of different chords right after each other
@@aureumursa1833 insanely
What's most impressive here is the ability to change tuning without touching the tuners.
Spliced takes together 😂 makes the transitions seemless.
@@TylerRossow i wish you'd tuned your G string a few times though, that thing is out of tune in a few riffs
@@jsraudio always the pesky G 😂😂
Thought you were jon when I looked at the thumbnail.
I’ve gotten that a couple times now. 😂 I wish I had his flow
I don't think there exists a better compliment
Very nice!
Will Swan is probably my favourite guitarist. This was really impressive.
That’s awesome to hear! He’s insanely talented.
Yeah man same. Tillian is my favorite vocalist, will is my favorite guitarist and, and Tim is my favorite bassist. The of my top favorite musicians are in the same band lol they’re just that good
Shocked that "Son of Robot" didn't appear. The tapping riffs in that song are insane!
That would’ve been good!
It was tooo difficult 😅
Glad I found your ad on Facebook, really tight channel. It helps that you look like a perfect hybrid of Jon and Will lol.
Haha I never noticed that but glad to have you here! Thanks for checking the channel out. 🤘🏻
lets not forget veritasium is in there somewhere
3 years later i still come back to watch this. you dont really get to appreciate what these licks look like
Just gonna download this, it all goes together so damn well.
perfect DGD montage! haha
23 Levels of The Fall of Troy Riffs! (Mainly from their self titled album)
This is on my list!
@@TylerRossow this would be legendary
Thank you for this I'm actually gonna start using this video as a "DGD introduction video" whenever I recommend them to someone now haha makes it a lot easier 😅
Oh that’s a great idea! 🤘🏻🙌🏻
I was gonna say “when did Jon grow a beard and I didn’t know he played guitar ?!” but then when I watched the video I realized you werent Jon Mess but that ok. Awesome guitar covers ! 🤟
That’s funny! I never noticed a resemblance to Jon until all the comments on this video 😂
If Jon mess and Andrew wells had a child 😂😂
@@yourmatejay yes bruh😭
Heyyy good shit man. Production value alone made me think your channel was larger!
Growing everyday! Thanks for checking it out brother 🤘🏻
@@TylerRossow I'll be around for the journey!
I really thought I was watching a big UA-cam channel, UA-cam recommendations has blessed me
Maybe one day! Haha. Stoked you enjoyed your stay 🤘🏻
I'm so happy my husband just showed me your page!!! Spot on!!!!
Happy to have ya! Stoked you guys are digging the content 🤘🏻
This absolutely RULES. Well done
I also think you look like a hybrid of Jon mess and Andrew wells in the best way possible
A solid combo! 🤘🏻😂
Awesome video man! Despite have some pretty funky riffs, I think we can all agree they’re a ton of fun to play!
Oh absolutely! This has been the most fun band to cover in the series by far!
amazing job!! swan soup and carl baker are both crazy hard, but the spooks is the one I've never been able to hit.
Spooks is SUPER TRICKY! Only reason it wasn't in the video is because there isn't 1 specific riff. It just goes hard the whole time!
Именно в таком порядке буду разбирать их песни. Спасибо, видос мега годный!
I love your videos man. Great variety. Definitely my style.
I was half expecting Chocolate Jackalope but very well done for all of them
this was absolutely awesome.
Appreciate the kind words! 🙌🏻
The dang chords are the hard part for me man. They got some long fingers.
Chords by themself - no problem
Notey riffs - no problem
Combine them - oof
Same here. I can do most of the crazy hammer on riffs but the fucking chords really work my fingees to the bone.
brilliant work…Well done!
"Pft, I could those if I practiced" 🤣🤣 love this video dude. Thanks 😊
Appreciate you watching! Practice goes pretty far! 🤘🏻😂
the vibes!!!!
Will Swan is the KING OF VIBES
The “psycho, I go” riff in chucky is off the charts as well
I learned Betrayed By the Game not to long ago. Never would have expected it to be one of the tops songs as "difficult" but it was so fun to learn that's probably why it seemed so easy. Will is just a genius on bringing out the best in you.
I picked it up pretty quick too but those chord shapes then quickly changing to tapping can be tricky to do clean.
really enjoyed this video, helped me find some new DGD to listen to :D
That’s awesome! Hope you enjoy diving deeper. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
yt recommendations had my back for once, this video was rad as fuck
Algorithm came in clutch for once! 😂 thanks for checking it out. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Chucky needs to be #1, that song is crazy hard
Psssh, maybe for you (I’m still learning hammer ons and pull offs)
This video really threw me through a wave of emotions and reminiscence holy fucc lmao hella surprised Chucky vs. tortoise was not included in this list, i had a tough time getting all those alternating riffs down for Chucky! Lol please do a Chucky cover 🔥🤙🏼🔥
Would love to cover it at some point! 🤘🏻
Good shit dude and a great series idea as well
Thanks! Any suggestions for the next band??
Super sick content bro!
Stoked you dig it!!
I think of this video every time Carl Barker comes on, love it
I’m honored 🤘🏻🙏🏻
This is really cool, thanks for making this!
No worries! Thanks for checking it out!

i didnt realize so much of will's stuff was so "straight forward". ive really been sleeping on simple melodic riffs my whole life (ヽ´ω`)
Doesn’t have to be difficult to be iconic 🤘🏻
good video awesome i’m typing with a stylus rn this video is cool dgd awesome u win
Thanks! Nice stylus skills 🤘🏻😂
Great video! Shows how little I know about guitar playing that I thought some of the earlier riffs looked harder than the middle levels haha.
There’s a band called Ling Tosite Sigure who I think you’d have a lot of fun doing this sort of run with. Honestly one of the greatest, most unique guitarists around for my money.
Sometimes riffs sound a lot harder than they are for sure! 😂 and never heard of them but I’m stoked to check them out!
Dude I love Unravel and Katharsis and others by them!
Just take a listen to telecastic fake show. Shits insane
@@publicsponge2696 gonna listen to it now!
Nice video man !!
Thanks! This stuff is so much fun to play. 🤘🏻
you look like Jon and Andrew did a fusion dance
What an awesome celebrity lookalike 😂
Amazing! And subbed
You are awesome! 🤘🏻
I am not the internet, I am but a member.
Amazing riffs dude!
I mean we all collectively are the internet! It’d be boring with no one on it 😂
Thanks for watching! 🤘🏻
Great job here, dude! Awesome tracklist, smooth playing and shiny montage. But..... No Chucky?
If I remember correctly, chucky didn’t have one specific riff, it was all just hard 😂
@@TylerRossow all hard - definitely, but even verse riff is hard af
No Chucky vs the giant tortoise? That shits hard as balls
Agreed but no 1 singular hard riff. I’d have to play the whole thing 😂
Great playing! That guitar is sexy as hell! Sounds great tone-wise too.
Thanks! It’s actually my buddy’s guitar that he custom built! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
That was so cool!! Nice one dude 🤘🏻🤘🏻
(I thought chucky would be there too lol but still this was dope af)
If I could go back in time, chucky would be on this list! 😂
Dance Gavin Dance the only underated band that make brutal and technical riffs without use lower Drop Tunnings or More Strings Guitars 🎉👏🏼
I love that about them! And somehow they’re still one of the most diverse bands musically too.
@@therareplatypus7121 they’re amazing too! And also a good band to add to this riff salad series. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I would also like to add Sylosis. Lots of great heavy, groovy, technical riffage all in E standard :D
Very impressive. Xx
Thanks 🤘🏻
crazy skills
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Reaalyy amazing dude , 🤟
Thanks homie ❤️
you should do a part 2, there's so many DGD riffs out there!
A couple new albums since I dropped this too!
@@TylerRossow yeah and some of the new ones seem pretty hard
@@TylerRossow if you do another definitely wait for their new album
Swan is a madman for writing these
Really Awesome!
Thanks! I have too much fun with these riffs!
@@TylerRossow Yeah Dance Gavin Dance is such a good band!
Awesome video!
Thanks brother! 🙌🏻
Awesome!
Fall of Troy? Mouths like sidewinder missiles.
Is this a video suggestion?
@@TylerRossow oh hell yes. That’s an amazing song. And on their second and third albums: “manipulator” and “doppelgänger”... there’s a bunch of great songs.
@@RurouniTenShins looked into it, apparently you've got to buy all their tabs. It's like $25 each album, haha.
@@TylerRossow Thomas Erak has recorded himself playing some of these songs. They’re on UA-cam. Gotta admit I’d be super interested in that video too!
@@sdrake8355 I’m tempted!
The new album has some crazy stuff too! These guys are great
WTF THAT'S SICK I'M SO FUCKING IMPRESSED
Stoked you enjoyed the riffage! 🙌🏻
one of these days ya gotta update it with Chucky and Die Another Day, those ones are cramp city haha
Chucky is so fun 🤘🏻
Betrayed is actually like one of their easier songs lmao
But sick video! Good stuff bro!
Thanks man! I just thought that riff was comparatively tricky with the chord shape into slide into tapping.
@@TylerRossow it’s crazy how in guitar one person’s easy is another person’s hard! Like uneasy hearts main riff is kind rough on me lmao! It’s all love man
This rules man!
Thanks for checking it out! These riffs are wayy too good!
Sick video
Thanks brother! 🤘🏻
Hey i loved your video i hope one day i can play as good as you
Thanks for the kind words! Just pick up your guitar as often as you can. 🤘🏻
I'm glad Carl's barker is the last song, I had a really hard time learning it
I’m gonna be honest, I’m not super sure how difficult guitar is, but I am curious how Chocolate Jackalope stacks up with these.
It’s a tricky one as well. Forgot to include.
@@TylerRossow I was just listening to it on the drive home and was thinking about this video. Had to come back to watch.
You picked some deep cuts. Really cool
I love all their songs and had to squeeze as many as I could in! Haha
@@TylerRossow It's a good list. Loved the video
Protest the hero riff salad would be insane
I absolutely should 🤘🏻
Did you build that guitar? I bought a diy guitar kit and it looks exactly the same lol. Awesome job nonetheless 🤘
A buddy of mine built it! It was a fun one to play. 🤘🏻
Hot water on wool is by far my favorite 😪😮💨😮💨
Such a good song!
as someone who doesn't play guitar, level 2 seems insane to me
That one’s easy cause you barely have to move your fretting hand 😅🤘🏻
If I was able to I’d make a drum version of this. But I ain’t that guy quite yet.
One day!
Bro where are the tabs to the tap part of head hunter into.
Check Songsterr! 🙌🏻
Hell yeah 😎
Uhhhh, what about the philosophers King?!?? 👑
Awe I really thought Deception would but up there
Just curious, what makes Suspended in This disaster tough?
The quick time sig change and that lil run at the end are a bit tricky.
It’s Safe to Say pre chorus lead should’ve def been on here.
Try playing death of a strawberry...
Will Swan is such a beast
Agreed! 🤘🏻
Wheres episode 1 and 2?
There’s a playlist at the end of the video but Ep. 1 is Bring Me The Horizon and Ep. 2 is System of a Down
does anyone know what guitar model is this?
This is a guitar a friend of mine built for fun years ago 🤘🏻
dude that’s so sick! it looks amazing, dgd is what got me into playing guitar!
I feel like if you would've counted the intro riff + the beginning verse part NASA would be up a lot higher, nevertheless awesome video!
That’s fair! That song is a ton of fun to play either way 😂
It threw me off at the end when you said your name. I have a buddy named Tyler Ross and thought you were saying that at first.
Super close! 😂
How is chucky not in this list?????
There was no 1 riff to pin down. The whole things hard 😂
Band/Song at the end of the video?
That’s my song Frostbite! Check it out 🤘🏻 ua-cam.com/video/WbE49Fw47Us/v-deo.html
Nice! I dig it. Great DGD clips too.
@@alexm8338 thanks! Appreciate you checking the content out
Will swan is a genius
A master of the craft! 🤘🏻
dude definitely is jon mess, change my mind
Bro but where was Philosopher King?!! That whole song is a beast, especially the riff from 0:55 - 1:17 in the song
I’m gonna have to make a part 2 with Chucky, Philosopher and Jackalope 😂
@@TylerRossow 😂 yes plz!! Great vid btw
@@Cymoar thanks for checking it out!!
No downtown battle mountain...
haha so where is prisoners? haha
amazing video thanks!
Song was still super new when I made this so I hadn’t learned it yet 😂
@@TylerRossow well watching your videos I think it would be a piece or cake for you hahah. I’ve been playing guitar for around 15 years and I still suck and doing these kind of riff lol
@@alvarovs89 every time you learn a new style it’s like relearning guitar 😂
What’s the video at the end anyone....?
That’s my song Frostbite 🤘🏻
Tyler Rossow - Frostbite [Official Video]
@@TylerRossow the snippet sounded amazing, going to listen now! Thank you!
@@pnklysmooth9888 awesome to hear! Lmk what you think 🤘🏻🤘🏻
@@TylerRossow absolutely loved it. Added to Spotify sent it to a few friends! Beautiful stuff! Love your DGD work immensely too!
@@pnklysmooth9888 that’s hugely appreciated! 🙌🏻 stay awesome my friend. 🤘🏻
did this dude just did this???
If you don’t own a flower shirt are you really a Dance Gavin Dance fan. Also how am I just now seeing this video lmao
Flower button ups are my summer goto. 😂
How the hell was Chucky not on here?
I’ve failed everyone 😂
@@TylerRossow all good my dude, good video anyway!
how did you learn these?
No Chucky, eh? I couldn't have put it on here either lol. Still well done though brother
