Can you imagine a rock song without the lead guitarist? Of course: with rhythm, bass, vocals & drums you've basically still got Nirvana. Can you imagine a rock song without the rhythm guitar? Can you imagine a rock song with no rhythm? No riff, no party.
Municipal Waste has no solos whatsoever and they sound amazing, Blood And Thunder has no solo but some harmonization, but overall it's mostly rhythm: sounds awesome
Equally as important? Rhythm guitar is far more important. No Riffs = No Song. A Song can exist without solos and can be replaced with amazing variety of riffs and nobody would even notice
@@rynn409 you're technically correct and petty enough to post this. As self-appointed judge, I'm finding this hilarious and am allowing the extra point.
I showed this to my wife - her bf thought it was hilarious!! There were some super tasty licks in that solo man! Over great riffage too!!! As funny as the whole thing was, your playing never compromises so respect like a footlong poo to you for that.
I'm kinda in between but without the rhythm all lead guitarist would be lost. If I'm playing lead I most often will start by following the rhythm guitarist
if you can't transcribe just play violin concertos. however, you'd have to at least have a basic understanding of reading sheet music or play by ear. i can't help about the wife part though....
I'm a rhythm guitarist except I can't play standing up. When I do I get really angry for no reason. It's like my Flying V is literally insulting me while I'm jamming, and then suddenly I just REALLY want to eat a cheeseburger.
i can play rhythm guitar in my sleep, but i am a very lackluster lead guitarist. hardest solo i know is something by the beatles ☠️ (or maybe and your bird can sing, that ones pretty complex)
I'm a moderate/centrist guitarist... little of both, master of none
Who doesn't enjoy a good poo?
Getting the job done is often better than being REALLY good at only one thing. ✌️
pick a side, coward! :D
like chuck schuldiner? or different?
@@ValleyOfWillows ha! Righto! 😆🤘🏻
If there is one thing I had to say about the masterpiece that this video is, I would say...
Clean your fucking window.
Lead guitarist confirmed
Llego el fanboy nr1 de one piece.
No sabia que te gustaba el metal.
I reckon it's the sandstorm from a few days ago, my window is minging
que gusto verte por acá
I'm usually a bass player, but I do enjoy playing rhythm guitar sometimes.
Unless your Billy Sheehan you play lead :D
@@kalidesu Also Cliff
You spelt only wrong
@@jaceacekalgoorlie only?
Same
As a lead guitarist, this felt like a personal attack on me
It is
Well, do you not enjoy your poo a little too much?!
FEEL IT HARDER, LEADIE!
@@aedanbrady1861 rhythms unite
sacrifices must be made to the toan gods, give in to your inner lead guitarist cringe
a tragic disease called "Lead Guitar-itis" has swept the land muhaha
_Rythm guitarist: core of the whole band_
Bass players: *Am i a joke to you?*
Djent bands: yes
Yes.
Ahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahha.
Bassists...
Bassist doesn't really understand what "core" even means, so no hurt done.
Yes they are
He's a guitarist, so: Yes, you are a joke to him.
As a lead this is EXTREMELY TRUE
PS I can’t play standing up
Same bro i can play rhythm guitar while standing up but i really can’t play any solos whilst standing 😂
This is why I'm a bassist.
Core of the whole band
*Drummers and Bass Players*
"Am I a joke to you?"
"No ego, just enjoys rocking out" was probably the perfect description for the rhythm guitarist in the first garage band I was in.
When my lead guitarist arrives, first thing I have to do is to feed him as dude cannot even afford a sandwich

No riff, no party.
Good point
Municipal Waste has no solos whatsoever and they sound amazing, Blood And Thunder has no solo but some harmonization, but overall it's mostly rhythm: sounds awesome
If you don't have riffs, you don't have metal.
Idk? Ask Buckethead...?!
Petrucci aka God left the chat...
I'm lead all the way but they are equally as important. I just love playing wether its smoke on water or playing dream theater I can't get enough
@Higger Nater88 haha lol

@@ajdaniel8128 good point man
@@ajdaniel8128 the point is who makes it the best
The Chad Rhythm guitarist VS Virgin Lead player
Chad guitar enjoyer
sigma dave mustaine
You portrayed me so well except having the wife part (I'm a lead player btw)
Oh, so you don't know your wife gets nailed by her BF, you scored an extra point!
@@rynn409 you're technically correct and petty enough to post this. As self-appointed judge, I'm finding this hilarious and am allowing the extra point.
As a lead guitarist, i can confirm that this is 100% true
damn i didn't know i was a lead guitarist until today
0:49 bro, astra estate
respect man
20 years ago, I moved from guitar to bass.
I showed this to my wife - her bf thought it was hilarious!! There were some super tasty licks in that solo man! Over great riffage too!!! As funny as the whole thing was, your playing never compromises so respect like a footlong poo to you for that.
To be a good lead one must first be able to play awesome rythm
as a rhythm guitarist this is extremely true
I'm kinda in between but without the rhythm all lead guitarist would be lost. If I'm playing lead I most often will start by following the rhythm guitarist
I like that the guy in the end is somewhat chill about the fact that some random guy is in his house
I am a lead guitarist and yes playing while standing is difficult.
Never been much of a lead player…. My heroes were always guys like Malcom Young, Scott Ian, Paul Stanley
A band couldn't last without a rhythm guitar
”Has loads of friends”
*waves at himself*
…yeah… loads…. Riiight…
That opening riff, dude, i came
Bold of you to assume the lead guitarist has a wife and can transcribe stuff
if you can't transcribe just play violin concertos. however, you'd have to at least have a basic understanding of reading sheet music or play by ear.
i can't help about the wife part though....
This is actually so true. The Rhythm guitarist is the one that pays the bills
"has loads of friends'
-proceeds to wave to himself
Painfully accurate
And I took that personally
"can't play standing" I feel attacked
these skits are so accurate lol
I will admit, I do love a good sludge bomb.
I'm so conflicted but the no friends thing is so true, emotional damage there 😢
This is incredibly accurate.
I'm a rhythm guitarist except I can't play standing up. When I do I get really angry for no reason. It's like my Flying V is literally insulting me while I'm jamming, and then suddenly I just REALLY want to eat a cheeseburger.
This is very accurate
This is definitely going further and further. Keep it up! XD
The Best Guitar Content On UA-cam
as a rythym player mostly, this is 100% true
I love the cheeky discord plug
no friends, got me there
Like dave mustaine said it everyone wants to play solo nowadays. And then there are lead Players.
This is why I do both
DAAANG BRO
This actually be most epic truthful vid I’ve ever seen😆 no kidding
Especially the f*cking part🤣
That "can't play standing" comment used to be true, until I realized playing standing actually gives me more access and fluidity
Where he slowly backpedals with the guitar to leave and is asked to put the guitar down 😂
Very comedic video british man
That’s a killa riff man
How would this video have gone if the results of your poll last week had been different?
0:45 Bumilingus was a great band
0:30 is Robert Fripp during most of his performance
1000%gold
You ever crank out a massive SRV blues solo on the channel?
As a lead guitar player, i can say that is very accurate
I don´t know how many videos I have watched, but this is the first time I noticed the can of Beans in front of the guitar hero controller!
I play both rhythm and lead and I think both are fun! It also depends on the songs that I'm playing too. 😄
Hit a bit to close to home. I also am incredibly good at pooing.
Technically rhythm is leading the lead to be in rhythm
This is damn accurate.
Why you gotta call me out like that, gosh
he forgot the part wher the lead guitarist and the dude who owns the house become best friends
This is 100% on the fucking money. If there were medals for accuracy you'd win the gold. 😂
It's weird to me why bands have to make a distinction between lead and rythm guitar while you can do both.
Yes
Bass player:
Is not mentioned
0:10 imagine seeing that in your bedroom window at 3am
I agree
You can take the shed out of the tool, but you can't take the tool out of the shed. Wait...
i can confirm that as a lead guitarist, i have no friends
There is a lot of truth in this.
so accurate...at least I own my house, and my guitar
I play both depending on who I'm jammin with at that moment...
I play lead and vocals in my band and my rhythm guitarist sent me this
0:38 that part is more revelant with kirk hammet
cool track I would buy that mp3
You´re great!! I can´t stopt laugh... But you play very cool... I hope play like you one day...
can confirm, am lead guitarist and still wearing the same undies from 2 months ago
How about a rhythm keyboardist?
Literally Billy Corgan and James Iha in the late 90s
I like to think that this tone comes out of the mini Marshall amp.
More accurate than any Jared dines Ridum to leed comparison
i can play rhythm guitar in my sleep, but i am a very lackluster lead guitarist. hardest solo i know is something by the beatles ☠️ (or maybe and your bird can sing, that ones pretty complex)
Ouch man, you had me at “can’t play standing up” and it got worse from there. At least I can pay my rent, but all the other ones are true.
Whole lotta snogging going on next door
Thanks for reminding me to check up on my nan!
~ Sincerely, a rhythm guitarist
What about the rhythm guitarist that's better than the lead guitarist but is forced to play rhythm
The fact that rhythm guitar player changes underwear daily is the result of clean playing.
Accurate
In my band me and the other guitarist are both lead and rhythm. We swap depending song what we feel like playing, I like my other guitarist, cool guy.
Aka why I keep telling people that Zacky Vengeance is criminally underrated by his own band AND fans.
Hey that's me right down to observing my own shits!
Not gonna lie, I expected him to make fun of the rhythm guitarist. This was a pleasant surprise.
i'd play lead if i could
I basically want to be both lead rythm.
I always knew i was just like the Rhythym guy 😂😂😂
