I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that you guys are covering bands like Periphery and Tesseract now! Prog ideas like polymeters polyrhythms metric modulation and adding such depth to heavy music in general is something I've loved ever since the earlier days of Tool. Thank you for being such a great channel for easy to understand explanations of deeper musical concepts than the 4 chords pop theories.
For the past 2 years I've been trying to learn how to properly go about prog metal, and learning poly rhythms, and I just got 2 steps closer to it, than where I was. You guys are incredible. Thank you so much. And Novelists, or Polaris are two bands I really love.
I have seen this video 4 years ago, when Garden in the Bones just came out. I have been searching it ever since. Today is the day, youtube algorithm throw it in front of me. Thanks.
I was very skeptic when I started watching but then when you started throwing out all these time signatures, notes and so on, I realized this is exactly what I needed. Subbed
Total honesty… First time watching a video from this channel and was expecting a generic guide like most videos… Then BOOM an awesome metal power couple is giving me dope magic tricks for my melodies. So rad!!! 🖤😈🤘
Haha, thanks so much Aaron, and a warm welcome to the Hack Music Theory community! What kind of metal do you make? Take care, and we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks 🤘

@@HackMusicTheory Wow great! Gonna watch'em all. Hahah lovely question. Then, heading straight to the point, these are the bands that somehow sparked the will to create songs of my own, chronologically, here they are: TOOL, Animals as Leaders and Acadence. All of them discovered from 2020 up to now. I'm other words, pretty recent. I need to fix some things before composing for real, like, a musical theory course, equipments and softwares. Anyway, I'm not starting from zero, I know kind of the basic of guitar and music theory, but I want to get more deep on it. Right now I only got an old acoustic guitar and the will to create things hahahaha. But I'm settling these things up, slowly. Thanks for the feedback man. Cheers from 🇧🇷. A brazilian djent fan. 🤘🏽
Thanks again for sharing, Carlos, we absolutely love your passion and enthusiasm! We've got a couple TOOL videos, which you may have found already, in our Metal Music Theory playlist (above). And while we don't have a video, we do have a PDF on how to write a Djent riff like Animals as Leaders, which you'll find here: HackMusicTheory.com/Djent. Sounds like you have a plan for getting started, which is awesome! If you haven't already, may we suggest that you check out our free music theory book, '12 Music Theory Hacks to Learn Scales and Chords'? It's a refresher of the basics and it's a super fast and fun read! You can download it from our website: HackMusicTheory.com/Books.

Take care and talk soon 🤘
Ahhhh takes me back to the days when I was still a die-hard metalhead. I still like metal, although I don't listen to it as much as I did in the old days. This lesson was a bit advanced for me, but I still learned something: Dorian mode. Also, you play awesome on guitar, Ray!
This video was so informative. Thanks again! So I keep watching these channels that do this thing where they get people to submit their songs and open them up in their DAW and then go through the song and help fix things ot give suggestions. Would be awesome if you are some channel did this with rock music. It could really help people to see theory applied to their songs. Just an idea. Cheers!
Hi again, Mick! Happy to hear you dig our djent video, do you djent?! We do have a PDF lesson for Animals as Leaders called "How to Write Thump Riffs" and you'll find it here: HackMusicTheory.com/Djent.

Well hey there Nathan, it's been a long time since we last connected! Hope all's great your side. Thanks big time for stopping by and watching, and we're super stoked to hear that you'll be using this hack on an analog synth, it'll work great on that!

Aww thanks so much Michael, and a warm welcome to the Hack Music Theory community! What kind of music do you make? Take care, and we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks :)
awesome channel, glad that i found you! would be nice to see your opinion on principles of the song/band, for example how to play over some chords, how to build riffs from this chords, which chords/scales are usually used in those kind of genres. That will help to develop something for ourselves, otherwise poeple will try just copy what youve done. Anyway that was helpful alot, keep it up!
please look into and explain how John Browne arranges his music from his band Flux Conduct and explain whats going in depth for next video. I think you guys would be pleasantly suprised at his technique. and by the way, love what you guys are doing. no one makes understanding theory as simple as you do!

Hello my friends! Recently I watched a movie called "Lords of Chaos", although the movie wasn't good enough, It reminded me of the days I was a fan of black metal music, so I just found my old CD's and files, I listened to Shining, Mayhem, Darkthrone, Nargaroth, etc. again! I enjoyed them again! It was the first sub-genre of metal which actually touched me! (The first ever "metal" track I heard was the third track of V-Halmstad album by Shining). Now, you just hacked one of my favorite bands, I can be sure that you can read my mind :P. I have a writer's block on writing new riffs and of course, this video helped me a lot. I love bands like Periphery and Animals as Leaders, they have a lot to learn for musicians like me! Anyway, talking about "2 in 1" riff, I heard that a lot in melodic death metal music, specially songs from one of my most favorite death metal bands "Amon Amarth". Have a nice time my friends, keep shredding \m/
Hey hey Muhammadreza, lovely to see you again, hope all's great your side! That's awesome to hear that you're reconnecting with your metal roots, it's such a great genre for finding super interesting music (like Periphery, who just keep getting better as they mature!). Really glad you liked the video, and yeah the 2-in-1 riff has been around or a long time - since before the mighty JS Bach in fact, so it's a very old concept, but it sounds just as great now as it did back then! Anyhoo, have a lovely weekend, and thanks again for being here! Looking forward to catching up with you next Thursday :)

Hello my friend, thanks for stopping by and watching! To get the piano roll in Reaper, simply double-click on the MIDI event, and then it will open the piano roll. Hope that helps :)
I write alot of metal on daw bc I don't play guitar (I'm a drummer) so I have to get all my ideas out this way. I'm glad to see someone else doing it besides make trap beats or dubstep or anything fully electronic. I've learned a few things so far watching your videos. Keep up the great work
While the song is epic as hell, I feel like it basically reinforces a lot of djent cliches. Not sure if it really needs the hack treatment (unless of course they want to cover the solo, which is probably one of the best parts of the song).
Not sure why nobody is talking about the fact that this is pretty much exactly the same as the verse riff from Garden In The Bones, but this video was made before the album was even released, so does this mean that the riff from Garden In The Bones was inspired by this video or was it just an insane coincidence? 🤔
Hey hey chase, thanks so much for watching and connecting! We use Reaper and are big fans of the software. Take care, and we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks!

Machine gun vocals
What plugin are you using for the guitar?
No plugin, that's me playing :)
@@HackMusicTheory Oh okay, I just assumed because you had the midi written out that you had a plugin or samples loaded on the track. Thanks
sounds like garden in the bones by periphery
Ehi sorry for my ignorance but how do You get that big piano roll for midi in reaper?
Hello my friend, thanks for stopping by and watching! To get the piano roll in Reaper, simply double-click on the MIDI event, and then it will open the piano roll. Hope that helps :)

I write alot of metal on daw bc I don't play guitar (I'm a drummer) so I have to get all my ideas out this way. I'm glad to see someone else doing it besides make trap beats or dubstep or anything fully electronic. I've learned a few things so far watching your videos. Keep up the great work
Is this the tatted up djent flea
Hack archspire plz
Could u guys Hack blood eagle by periphery
While the song is epic as hell, I feel like it basically reinforces a lot of djent cliches. Not sure if it really needs the hack treatment (unless of course they want to cover the solo, which is probably one of the best parts of the song).
Symphony X's The Odyssey? :p
Not sure why nobody is talking about the fact that this is pretty much exactly the same as the verse riff from Garden In The Bones, but this video was made before the album was even released, so does this mean that the riff from Garden In The Bones was inspired by this video or was it just an insane coincidence? 🤔
What daw do you use
Hey hey chase, thanks so much for watching and connecting! We use Reaper and are big fans of the software. Take care, and we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks!
