"Hip hop elevator music." I don't even think the boys would be mad about that 😂
GOAT is the obvious next song for you to check out by them, but Look But Don't Touch is a video you need to watch.
Henson has really been inspired by trap beats so, yeah, he'd be nodding at your description.
hell yeah look but dont touch for sure
It’s more Flamenco
@@thereisnopandemic this is probably the first song that they have released that is flamenco
@@thereisnopandemic This one has a strong flamenco vibe, but overall, they consider themselves trap-inspired prog rock.
That song came out last week. Polyphia is the present and future. Tim Henson is a once in a generation talent.
I didn't think they'd be able to out-do G.O.A.T, but here we are.
And past! They formed in 2010.
It really is hard to describe to someone who doesn't play guitar or listen to a lot of high-level guitar playing, just how hard it is to play what Tim Henson plays. From the rapid harmonics to the hybird picking and then combining that with all your typical hard shit (speed, sweeping, tapping, etc) is just unreal.
@@FborgesR Yeah, it's really that the two guitarists and bassist can all hybrid pick like madmen. Without that technique, Tim couldn't play the songs he writes.
@@robertspongebobharoldsquar5335 i hope you're joking... Tim Henson is far superior, don't even put those names in the same sentence.
@@robertspongebobharoldsquar5335 yes i have, how else would i be able to compare them? Use your brain. Only reason thedoo is famous is because of his Omegle videos.
Tim Henson is a star. He's on the rise.
Been around a while but G.O.A.T. got em noticed more. You should check that video out
Exactly! This is referred to as, Math Metalcore. Elevator, lol? Older crowd? 😹 I believe what you’re feeling is the jazz infusion, but, believe or not...this IS the Nu Nu 😈 These young guys are all maestros @ their instrument. Definitely check out G.O.A.T. Btw, they are completely instrumental. 🖤🌹🖤🧛🏻♀️
True, but this song got released like super recently.
@Lestat polyphia doesn't consider themselves math Rock. Jason Richardson is THE math guy.
@@kylel8605 Interesting as I could’ve sworn that I read an article describing their genre as such.
Check out this link:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphia
GOAT is one of their weakest songs imo. Nightmare or OD are more worth it
As a guitarist they are intimidatingly good. Not just the skill but more about how fresh and creative it is, and admittedly how cool they look
You're askin how the Old Folks like this ??? Well I'm what my kids call a BOOMER even though I'm 10 years younger than that !!! I grew up with Nuno Bettencourt from EXTREME and Stevie Vai and Yngwie Malmsteen. Eddie Van Halen set the bar when we were kids and we all became better players for it. Once in a generation there's somebody that just sees the guitar differently and interprets what it is supposed to sound like in a new fresh way. Your generation gets Tim Henson to carry the torch of innovation. At first I was put off by the fact that they don't use a vocalist, but after hearing ALL of their music I don't think that even the best singer in the world could really add any value to what they are already doing. Enjoy the Polyphia Rabbit-Hole. I first discovered them with the song G.O.A.T. and knew that your generation was in for a treat. PEACE AND LOVE PEEPS.
"Back in the day" all you had to do was turn on the radio or go to the record store to hear a band combining a little from this genre & that genre creating a whole new sound being released. It was endless. It's fantastic to hear true musicians playing ACTUAL instruments who have honed their craft & are pushing boundaries. Thanks for reacting to this, Rico & Crys.
Rico, you asked what some of us older folk thought. Once I got past how incredibly perfect these musicians play and how sexy the song & vibe was my first thought was "there's hope for this generation." My second thought - I'm downloading this immediately.
I have a friend who's in his early 20's, and we had a long discussion/argument earlier this year about today's music as compared to my era. I've insisted since 1990 that music has gone down the toilet, and the fact is, it's actually quantifiable, and objective opinion. There's even been studies/documentaries made proving out the difference in talent and skill set. He told me that actually, the past decade has seen the most talent. I laughed at him. Then he sent me G.O.A.T.
But "hope"...I dunno. Most kids don't appreciate it. Not at all like we did back then. I just watched a YT recommended video after a new Tears For Fears song (that I enjoyed a lot) and what YT recommended to me was a young "artist" whose "music" was utter *garbage* ...noise pollution. Yet the artist was being cheered on in the comments by the kids. I could've wrote the song in under one minute.
(End rant)
Polythia is one of kind, they have a couple of real virtuosos and they put their music together in a way which seems amazing and flawless, but in addition if anyone else tried to do it, it would be damn near impossible. And just to give an example, this is the type of band where world class guitarists sit down and watch and then go "wtf just happened there?"
So glad y’all reacted to this! Great reaction!
Would definitely recommend G.O.A.T. As well.
Their older song "crush" has dope bass guitar. It's a vibe
It’s interesting you reacted to Polyphia, the ‘lead’ guitarist Tim Henson is really into hip hop and melding trap beats into ‘rock’. I hear his influence on Polo G beats. This song is coproduced by Judge who works with Migos Marshmello etc. 🔥🔥
Flamenco your weed guy AND you can enjoy lol
Polyphia are modern shredders(virtuosic musicians and compositions)
Shredders from the past and many still around today that influenced this kind of genre are Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, Cacophony, Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Vinnie Moore etc. I know polyphia are fans on Steve Vai. The great thing that keeps Polyphia fresh and interesting is that they infuse pop, and hip hop and many other styles into their music.
I recommend checking out Polyphia’s “Impassion” and “G.O.A.T” back to back. One being early in their career and the other is current. Quite the contrast but but both very good.
They don't know who any of those classic artists are 🤦♂️
Im 40 and polyphia is fucking doooope!
Hi! Older crowd here! Love this music, love their other songs (G.O.A.T. and Look, But Don't Touch and all). You nailed it-I love that you brought up their look right before it all changed and then went Fendi with it. I have trouble finding words, too.
My pops is a boomer and a huge music snob. Listened to a lot of prog rock like yes and rush etc. showed him the play through of this song from Tim Henson (the lead guitar player) and he was blown away. So the older generation def fucks with it haha
Tim uses my favourite picking technique, hybrid picking, where you use a plectrum AND use the three other fingers to pick at the same time
Been a fan of Polyphia about 5 years. Check out their other stuff. “Goose”, “LIT” (or “Light” the live version) and “Icronic”
One of the guitarist tim Henson is a great person I love him
They’re playing the vocals on the guitar.
For instance the 1st beginning guitar solo after Tim’s intro in God is not a guitar solo!
It’s simulating a🔥azz rapper coming out hard AF and dropping the first verse!
Then immediately after Tim Henson drops the second verse hard AF again!
Their music is based on musicians writing ,composing and mixing all genres of music.
Creating all the bass parts,vocal structures,guitar harmony’s ,hip hop rap and R&B vocals ,then playing them all at once, together on just a guitar done by one person ,or in this case ,individually buy each of the two guitar players.
Polyphia simply mixes all genres of music ,their rock and rap harmonies and their vocal lyrics ,then all written,composed and played on a single guitar ,wether they’re live or in studio!
It’s one man doing what a 5 piece band can barely all do together and it’s Ultra impressive to say least.
Unequivocally this is next level complicated music with more emotion and structure than some give them credit for!
The bottom line is It’s not just music but artistic writing and musical brilliance at some of it’s absolute finest and most genius!
As a professional studio musician ,Drummer and lead guitarist I can say I both hear and feel the absolute magnificence of Polyphia!
-Crisis
I'm jealous that you can experience discovering Polyphia for the first time, also BUY A TICKET if they show up live near you one of my favorite live shows I've seen
I'm 35, and these guys are SO FIRE.. been a fan of prog and fingerstyle guitar for years, along with bein a hip-hop head, and this music scratches a musical itch I never knew I had, it's flamenco and fingerstyle guitar with punchy trappy bass and rhythm sections, and it melds so well together because of their virtuoso-level talent. 10/10
It's cool to know that the second part of that composition they had an influence of Bossa Nova
Yea the drummer is next level.
polyphia was the reason why i picked up a guitar. their newest song will also be the reason why I will never pick it up again. these guys are fuckin insane
The older crowd if their like me love it, Fantastic musicians, taking music to another level. It needs to happen. They actually base the foundation of their music on hip hop rhythms and beats.
you have no idea how ridiculous this guitar playing is, seriously ive been playing for 10 years and struggle to grasp half of this, like the difficulty here is a leagues above 99.9% of other guitar work, these modern guys are just reinventing how you play guitar and showing almost unattainable skill.
The genre is math rock with some hip hop, you should check out some math rock guitarists like ichika nito theyre amazing
Account created in 2012, you weren't lying or exaggerating 😂
Maybe I can explain it a little better. I'm 65 and over the years I've heard a lot of non-traditional music. What this is to me is a combination of Lo-Fi, hip-hop smooth jazz and classical guitar and Metal with just a touch of anime all smoothly Blended together... And by god it works. And if you think this is incredible listening to some of the music by Ichika Nito a Japanese fingerstyle guitarist especially his compositions called Awakening and Orb. He has done compositions lasting anywhere from 30 seconds up to almost five minutes that will leave you absolutely speechless from listening to it. Ibanez guitars has even built a signature guitar in his honor. And then one video all he is doing is running a tuning sequence it's called" cabbage" listen to it your ears and mind will thank you for it later
G.O.A.T.
I get what you're saying. I like some older metal but it lacks what Polyphia brings. I really enjoy trap, pop and hip hop styles but Polyphia brings a whole different element that gives me eargasms every time I listen to it.
This is true music, these guys actually play their instruments. Viva ESPAÑA!!! Not salsa, it’s Flamenco
I saw poliphia live in Nashville TN back in like 2015 . they were already playing when I walked in. thought it was a recording, they are so clean live.
Those drum fills man...just awesome
Okay...Coming from someone that you would describe as, "the older crowd", (1966) - I think it's awesome to see your guys' reaction to this stuff! The looks on your faces as you started to understand phrases from a language that you had never heard before was a special and very encouraging thing to see.
flamenco is the word your looking for, this was sic af, wow!!!!
Surprised you guys reacted to this...this is going to be most appreciated by musicians and esp guitarists. These guys are prodigies. For example, they use what's called "harmonics" a lot, and in an absolutely sick way. The best way to appreciate it is to pick up a guitar...and try to do what they're doing. Then you'll _really_ get it. Cheers.
I’ve never heard of them, first time hearing this and WOW! I really enjoyed everything about it! Nice! Great review!
Welcome to the club, have ya listened to Goat?
@@marcoantoniotorres4924 Hi. Thanks, I did. I like it!
@@Taraonrepeat Awesome. I also recommend Goose, Bad, and The Worst. Those are my faves. Really, this band is extremely innovative and genius.
@@marcoantoniotorres4924 Thanks! I’ll check ‘em out. 👍
It’s definitely accessible music, complex, for sure, but it’s got hip hop, metal, blues, Latin, electronica, so many different inspirations in this group.🤙
40oz is the tune that made me fall in love with them. These guys are a whole vibe!!
It's Spanish flamenco style mixed with some jazz at the end as far as the guitar goes
If you wanna check out more, you gotta listen to their New Levels New Devils album, it's legendary and what made them super popular.
To me polyphia is a group that is just comprised of musical virtuoso’s who make songs that are basically unplayable, due to their level of technical difficulty, somehow sound relaxed and melodic. It almost seems that the tempo of the song is much slower than it is if you just listen not to closely. To give perspective, i would consider myself a fairly good guitar player and I can’t even figure out how they’re making some of the sounds they are. The way they use harmonics during the incredibly fast riffs theyre playing, while still having them come out sounding bright and clear, with sustain is mind boggling to me.
been listening to this band since my sophomore year in high school. they still kick ass & it’s so dope to see their progression 🤙🏽
I don't know if you care, and this is meant only in a constructive manner, but using such a contextual time descriptor as "your sophomore year" does a very poor job at communicating time in a way a stranger can understand. Just a tip in case you may have to write a formal comment I guess ¯\_༼ •́ ͜ʖ •̀ ༽_/¯
They’re basically a modern classical band. They draw influence from a ton of different styles, both classical and modern, then throw some beats and stuff in thd background. Truly a band anyone can get into.
look but dont touch is soo good and goat
that's what talent looks like.
To answer your question. I am 54 and listen to most genres. I just love good music. Polyphia is one of my favorites! I love how creative and unique there sound is. I see a lot of comments on what I am about to say but I will say it again. The song that got me hooked is G.O.A.T. You have to do a reaction to that. If not for curiosity do it for the likes, 😂. Seriously, it’s older but when you hear that song you will know why. They are very technical and creative.
I'm almost 40. I have a few friends who have been playing guitar for longer than Tim Henson has been alive. Watching him made them quit. Permanently. That's how good he is. Not sure if I classify as "the older crowd" (I'm 37) but I love polyphia. That being said, I have a lot of friends who just don't vibe with them.
from an "older crowd" perspective this shit is level 1 drop the internet focus on an instrument for a year and get back at me
Dude yesss thank you. Polyphia is a band you should listen to more of
One of the most talented bands top to bottom. G.O.A.T. is another banger
Its basically if flemenco and trap music had a baby while playing mario kart.
The "older crowd" approve! Great music and skills aren't stuck in a specific timeframe.
The thing Polyphia I noticed is that it is technical in styling but the core of the songs they do is very very accessible to many. It's like you said. It vibes with everyone which honestly Tim Henson the guitarist is def someone you rarely see in a generation and def say people keep an eye on hin and his band's work. 🤘
Her eyes were hooked on Tim... 😂
in only one music we have Flamenco , hip-hop and bossa nova.
Their song "Yas" is fantastic
The guitar is mostly based on Flamenco music from Andalucia (southern Spain), not Salsa ;) Gotta say.. mixed with these beats and all those harmonics the result is something else.
Progressive hip hop elevator salsa. Thats the genre right there
Please do more songs by them! Such a vibe.
This makes me so happy, you guys are great!
The drummer is the sickest. He does it unplugged on the same UA-cam thread. So does tim Henson playing God unplugged
The band is a mix of Classical technique, Jazz influence and Hip Hop grooves to me. They very much fit in with the 80's and 90's Jazz fusion virtuoso music from artists like Al Di Meolo, Paco De Lucia, John McLaughlin, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, Alan Holdsworth, Miles Davis etc. and others. Not your run of the mill teeny bop rock or 80's hair bands in the day but musician's music. Wish them the best. Today people sit and play keyboard on the computer which is fine to a degree. Artistry is hardly there. They are to me a throw back to old school but with new processing and production tech in those terms. And to me at 52 years of age I love that there are still artists like them. Tons of garbage and production out there without the chops.
You should def check more of them and make more reaction vids to them, they are fire, I recommend LIT, and Champagne of them
they recently released a new song abc's and it features Sophia black
Flamenco is the work you’re looking for haha but it’s a lot of genres of being mixed as well. Polyphia is goated!
This is what it looks like when you're reacting to something just because it's popular
I showed my mom some polyphia and she thought it was too complex, she very much grew up on 70s, 80s, and 90s rock but she could nonetheless appreciate the talent that goes into playing something like this
Life with recklezz da🐐no🧢
It’s definitely got a flamenco Spanish vibe. It’s only a matter of time before hip-hop artist start sampling their tracks
I appreciate you! Keep it going!
these guys use a whole bunch of genres mixed into their guitar playing. Hip hop and trap is a common genre Tim uses to create riffs.
Should check out GOAT by Polyphia
CHECK OUT "G.O.A.T" by them or "Goose" or "40 oz" I think all of those would be fire to hear your opinion on. Oh and also the song "The Worst" by them too.
Everyone's gonna say check out "G.O.A.T" but you should also check out some of their early stuff like "Impassion" and "Transcend" They been around for about 12 years. Theyre from the Dallas area. Also, ive been wanting you guys to check out Dance Gavin Dance. Polyphia has gone on tour with them twice. Start with "We Own the Night" or "Inspire the Liars"
Amazing instrumental band. Be sure to check out their song G.O.A.T. it's song title is fitting. Look But Don't Touch is another banger from them. You're about to go on a journey listening to these guys!
You should listen to their song So Strange with Cuco. It’s got vocals and is very hip hop
Flamenco with trap beat
Your pause from 3:45 was so funny to listen to lol
hip hop elevator music is so on point lmaooo but they're good elevator music
Listen to the song that put them on the map!! Goat by polyphia!!!!
It's not salsa, but I know you what you mean in terms of the latin vibe. Technically, the first half would be flamenco and classical elements and the second half the song would have the jazzy bossa nova elements. What brings it out is because they're using nylon string acoustic electric guitars in this song. The trap beats, triplets and the drum fills were great too.
NOT "Salsa," people, you were looking for Flamenco, like Paco DeLucia or Al DiMeola. And the whistling section, the cool jazz in the white house, sounded kinda Brazilian - these lads must have spent their COVID time listening and writing. And that KILLER drummer is Clay Aeschliman.
Ol girl love her some tim Henson 😁
Well, I am 55 and I can assure you that the older crowd (of musicians and progressive music lovers anyway) are absolutely enamoured with groups like Ployphia, CHON and Plini...Just to name a few in this genre.
loove your reaction...and its flamenco SPAIN ...and CopaCabaña vibes lol
I think you mean flamenco - as in the Spanish guitar tradition.
Trippie redd is supposed to have a feature on their upcoming album so make sure to check that out when it is released
Goat is a must watchhhhhhh, its so goooooooooooooooooood
Next reaction tim henson Playing God Unplugged & tim henson POV Playing God Unplugged
Drown is my favorite
I think what you were trying to say is they seem very modern and it shows.
Take a shot every time he says: ''Like''.
❤❤❤
polyphia has been around for a while, back in the day they had a different drummer and were more metal but they've grown since and started writing crazy stuff like this. I'd reccomend listening to 40oz or aviator if you wanna hear a different heavier sound from them
The new Lorna Shore single... Do it!! Hahaha
You like this, you'll like G.O.A.T.
They look like anime characters in real life haha
🔥🔥😎🤘
aesthetic is the word xD
Bro looks like Jay Z 😂😂
