what I think sets you apart from so many guitarists is the ability to write truly memorable riffs and solo's. always tasteful whilst being ultra groovy and crushingly heavy. your catalogue still sets the bar for what I want to hear from any heavy band I listen to. you can tell that you've painstakingly thought about the flow of a song and how to take it to the next level with the solo without taking away from what else is going on or being played by the other members. not alot of people can do that. plus they always leave me smiling because you're able to capture that triumphant moment or feel. all time favourite guitarist
Damn bro!👊 What a compliment! I grateful for the opportunity to provide you with jams you enjoy!🤘
I agree. Everything. Every band Ive seen you guys play with, I forget the name of the other bands cuz you guys just steal the show. Dead serious, idr a single band you played a show with when I saw you live 3 times. I know where they were lol.
I'm about 65 percent through and you already gave me some ideas to makey my writing sound more lively. Rather than robotic and predictable. Ntm the abrupt changes give the groove/time signatures a really unique flavor. Appreciate it indeed brother.
Hey happy to help! Tear it up bro!
The fact that I learned most of my guitar techniques from Chimaira growing up is showing in this video. “Hey, I can do that!”
Awesome!🤘
Guitar riffs are the main reason to listen to Chimaira for me. I'm glad the you are doing this tutorials
Thanks for tuning in!
really appreciate you putting stuff into context with having two guitarists. that's defiantly where i struggle
Right on! Glad to help!
Respect And Royalty Chimaira From Costa Rica.. 2020🤘🤘👊👊
I have had that riff from Six stuck in my head for weeks now since revisiting Resurrection so this blew my head off when the video started. I was listening to Frozen in Time yesterday too. Really cool to get more information on all these insane riffs, thanks Rob!
Cool Adam! Glad you dug it!
I've been listening to a lot of Chimera lately. Those fucking riffs 🤘
Wow. Didn't realize that the fade in to Cleansation was just harmonics rung out. Always assumed it was feedback. Pretty clever!
You know how we get!🎸
THANKS I ENJOY WATCHING YOU PLAY . YOU ARE OUR GUITAR TEACHER ON UA-cam . WAS PLAYING ALONG TO FEAR FACTORY OBSOLETE AND THROUGH OUT MIDDLE OF ALBUM I GO DAMN THIS IS FUN . AND WHEN THE RIFFS GET ALL ALIVE AND THE ENERGY COMES OUT MORE LIKE GETTING THE CROWD GOING ITS AWESOME .
This is gold
Good man!🤘
Would love to see you review your fans playing Chimaira styled riffs that they could send to you
I see, I have always played the Bloodlust riff on the 4th and 3rd strings
Your becoming a very good teacher RA! Your vid quality is killer and also getting next level cheers!
My man👊
Fan since Farmclub Dead inside.. 2000- 2001
Appreciate the years of support!👊
Thank you for giving us the recipe for some sick Chimaira sounds! Time to get cookin!
Cook on my man!🎸
This was an extremely interesting video, Rob! Lots of useful stuff
So glad to hear that Alex!🤘
Thank you Rob for another video! Love watching you play ! Once again my love from Argentina. 🎸💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Right on! Cheers!🤘😎
Nostalgia for these tricks man!
😎🎸
love your esp's Rob
Thanks man! Check this out if you haven't seen it 👉 ua-cam.com/video/gDqWOg1D0DI/v-deo.html
Brilliant writing & Great teaching from one of my Fav bands of all time. Thank you RA!!
👊😎
That ESP is really nice! I'm still looking for one (the LTD version) but they are quite hard to come by nowadays.
The corpse harmony is such a cool trick !!!
Thanks dude! eBay is my only advice!🎸
Rob played the intro to suite pee from System of a Down. Hell yeah my dude🤘
A little bit haha... I should have done some more of it!
For those interested, the "Corpse Harmony" is called the Major 3rd Harmony. It is the 3rd degree of the Major scale. Starting at the root, tonic, tonal center, key (whatever you want to call it) as the first degree of the major scale, 1 whole step (2 frets) would be the Major 2nd or the 2nd degree, then another whole step (2 frets, so 4 total frets away from tonal center) is the Major 3rd interval or 3rd degree of the scale. My music theory knowledge is pretty elementary and always growing so feel free to correct me where I made mistakes.
Right on!🤘
He's not playing 4 notes (or major 3rd, intervallically)... he's playing three (minor 3rd). The idea behind the harmony is that it's a 'diminished' sound.
four notes, would be augmented.
Your writing and way of offloading sound and harmonies on a note/chord thats 4 fret higher is genius dude. I think that, plus a lot of the crazy good chuggy chords in between and the badass drums that enhanced it are what i love about Chimaira so much. especially on the all stuff with Andols (yes even the This Present Darkness EP which id LOVE TO SEE stuff from on here!!)
🤘🎸
Ah man,this is so helpful! Thanks for sharing some tips and tricks👍😁
That tone😍
Love me some Chimaira!! I’m a drummer but find your video’s interesting and badass!! Keep’em coming Rob!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Awesome man! I appreciate you tuning in! 🤘🥁🤘
I've been using the "Fourths" since the "Impossibility Of Reason" came out. The blend between power chords and fourths is killer. Totally agreed with the "Megadeth" vibes.
Right on!🎸
Great video Rob.. Your videos are the ONLY videos I look forward too & watch from start to finish..
I appreciate that big time Keith!👊
i've been playing Frozen in Time wrong all this time! #@$!@#$ dude! One thing I love about your style is that you "sprinkle" in shit without over doing it. Also, learning your riffs taught me to play clean flat fourths. It takes work to make them stand out. I love that guitar!
Thanks Nate! Cheers man👊🎸
As a long time chimaira fan, seeing this is pure gold. Being able to learn and play the epic riffs from the man who wrote them and to see your technics is just next level. Thank you Sir!
Glad you enjoyed it bro!🤘
Great string attack! thanks for a video
Hey thanks for tuning in!🎸
would love for you to continue this little series of videos on a more advanced level, id love to see you break down some of your solos and patterns you like to use on your leads. so much of it is phrasing and "feel" but sometimes having another persons playing broken down into little spots and sections can open up a whole can of worms and ideas and inspiration. Also still waiting for a wild Jim LaMarca to appear for a little chat with you on the channel. Show the big man some love!
I'll consider your idea! And I definitely plan to have a sit down with Jimmy soon!
Very cool stuff!
Tight! 🤘
Your attack is insane!
👊😎🎸
Beast! Rob, you are by far my fav guitar player all time...thx for your knowledge 💯
Hey thanks bro! 👊
Love it, Rob!
Thank you for the awesome content Rob, keep going as always !
THANKS ROB!!!
sick video Rob!
BROOO...Wth.. Useful tips!!! THANKS
My pleasure!🎸
Your tone SLAYS man! You are one of the coolests guys in UA-cam, keep up the good work!
Hey thanks dude! Appreciate you watching! 👊😎🎸
lovely tone
Thanks for the inspiration Rob, really got my stuff together to make better quality stuff. Lol, btw, was going to say my favorite Chimaira technique is the inverted 5th. 😂😂😂 that’s the thing you were saying was the flatted 4th and the other guy “perfect 4th”. I’m going to get nerdy for a second, but it’s inverted 5th because the root note is still the higher note, and the lower not is the 5th (power chord), only an octave down. Hence inverted 5th. Doesn’t matter, we know what you mean, and it sounds badass.
Haha see!? So many different opinions on the topic. Glad you enjoyed it though man!🤘
Always, & again another great video. Thanks Rob! \m/
👊😎
Damn good playing as always Rob.🤘
Cheers!🎸
This is great!! more lessons from the master! YEAH 🎸🤟😎
😎🎸
and great video,thanks!!!
🤘
nice vid. thnx a lot :)
Thanks for watching!
Here present from Mexico 😁❤️
If anything ever showed how much influence you've had on my playing, its this video. This was like a checklist of shit I include in basically everything I write. My bands album is basically a tribute to Rob Arnold at this point. 😂
Ha! Nice! Send a link!
Nice rob...🤘
🤙
Cheers man, great video!
🍻
Awesome stuff, as usual 🤘
🤘
Cool tricks dude... love it
🤘
Killer vids Rob \m/
🙏
Great lesson 👍. I really learned something. This is exactly what I've been looking for to get an idea where to go on this song I've been working on. 🤟😀
Glad to help! Good luck with your music!
Really appreciate this stuff
Good!
Thanks for that Rob! very cool! Keep it coming :)
Will do!🤘
Man sounds good! 👌 🤘
Thanks Major!🤘
😅😅😅 of course!!!...
I already knew you'd use these or atleast like the sound as I do. 🤷♂️ 🤷♂️ 👉🎸🤘🤘
Yessir!🤘
Definitely new strings, love the riffs 🤘
🤘
Very cool to see the outro from Overlooked in here. Have been wondering for almost 20 years if I was playing that correctly! :)
Glad to help!
I found this video to be very helpful thanks a bunch Rob👍😎🤘👊
Glad to hear it Elena!🤘
Love your playing style Rob. Been a fan of Chimaira for a long time and newly subscribed to the channel brother!
Welcome aboard bro! 🤘
I absolutely love Megadeth riffs and melodies, but your riffs are a true beast of their own that crush, groove and melt in a killer signature way and your harmonies ooze an energizing yet soothing vibe. It's like going surfing as the storm rolls in and disappearing into the thrilling ride that is unknown! Megadeth stuff would sound crazy in C standard tuning too.
Haha I love that!👊
Bloodlust finally! Well... A bit of it haha! Nice vid man!
Haha maybe more of it in the future!
very cool ... making some new riffs ideas now...
Great!🎸
Thanks for another awesome video man! 💜 Got my 6 string tuned to Drop C at the moment so gonna jam some Chimaira later 🙂
Perfect!
Great video, Rob! It's pretty funny how people have different names for all this stuff, Corpse harmony is a very good name for minor thirds and I guess diminished scales all around, definitely used alot by Cannibal and death metal in general! And when you combine all these different techniques, you can come to with some really cool stuff.
Well said bro!🤘
My dude! You could do a whole tutorial on how to properly wail with a wah pedal! Cheers, man!
Right back at ya ripper!😉
Love the video Rob! Thanks for sharing some thoughts and inside info with us. I'm mainly a drummer (since I was 12), but picked up guitar guitar back in 2000. I need to pick it back up and practice. Lol. Haven't played in about 8 months.
Happy to inspire bro!
Frozen in time. What a song. Did you ever play it live?
I can't remember actually! If we did, it was probably only once or twice!
I could listen to that break down with the squeals from "Overlooked" for eternity. Fuckin legendary.
👊😝
That corpse harmony is basically one of the riffs from Impending Doom, near the later half of the song. Killer song. And killer lesson as always Rob! Thanks for all the inspiration. \m/
Thanks for watching Allan!
@@RobArnoldWorld You mention it's 4 notes apart... But it's 3... lol...
The first few notes are 6th fret and 5th fret... which you then play higher on the 9th fret and 8th fret...
three... not four lol...
diminished, not augmented.
@@johndoe-cv1gv Tomato/Tomahto
@@RobArnoldWorld not quite lol. depending on context, one leans more into sinister (minor 3rd's), and one is more haunting (major 3rd's)
I used to wonder about the harmonic feedback when you guys came onstage. It never sounded like generic feedback.
Chimaira was the only band I could think of where it sounded a very certain way.
I could tell what band it was if I was blindfolded.
Like the Tilburg show on the The Dehumanising Process dvd, pretty sure it's on that.
I guess it was a secret then! haha
Rob - A few moments of harmonics that I’ve always loved in Chimaira songs is when you’d use them as “build ups”.
Example: At about the 1:20 mark in Needle, you hit a harmonic (I believe on the 3rd string) and use your whammy bar to give it this cool “rising” effect. I always thought that was such a sick way to transition into that second verse.
Oh right on man! Glad you notice those things!🤘
Awesome video man!! Really appreciate this. What song is playing at the very end of the video? I’m pretty sure I’ve heard every chimaira song or maybe i haven’t 🤔
Cool! The music playing throughout almost ALL of my videos are songs from my band The Elite! We released a our debut full length album in late 2018. Here is the song that played at the very end of the video 👉 ua-cam.com/video/S5VdEsgZqus/v-deo.html
Head down the rabbit hole and check out the rest of the album!🤘
As soon as i heard that Six tune i knew this was going to be another kick ass video! Thank you Rob!
Quick question, i know your favourite tuning is drop C, but would you go to drop B, or even A for some future project considering that most of the bands nowdays are on 7/8 strings and play low as fck... !? Thanks
Cool! Chimaira has songs in drop B on The Infection, and the entire Pass Out record is in drop A! Six Feet Under UNDEAD is all C standard. And I have a secret album in the works that is in B standard. So yeah... I get around!😝🤘
Hell yeah !2🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hell yeah Mike!🤘
I’m only really familiar with Louisville Hardcore, which has a lot of sick bands from classics like Endpoint all the way to heavy modern bands like Knocked Loose, Street Ray, Pissed On, Transgression, and many others. However, I’m definitely gonna have to follow to find out who that Cleveland band was because that riff sounded sick!
Right on Phillip! Check us out!🤘👉 ua-cam.com/video/jFKf5d7_7CI/v-deo.html
@@RobArnoldWorld funny enough i used to listen to your band when i was around 16 and 17. 😅 i'm 23 now and i still come back and blast your guys' music!
awesome vid the guitar stuff really rules
Man I wish I still had my Electric Guitars!! only Acoustic atm. Went through tough financial times years ago had to make ends meet. I had a Prs whale blue Mccarty, Classic black gibson les paul with Zakk Wylde EMGs and an American White strat With Gold Lace sensors. miss them so much I saved up all summer as a young kid to just buy one guitar every summer break in High school. my Friends would be like like go out and have fun, I'd be like no i'm good. saving up for this Guitar, lol!!
Never too late to grab another axe!
Cool little tidbits. fourths is my fav, sounds punchy yet kind of nasty. Do you use fourths in the intro to pictures in the gold room?
We do!
Hey, Rob, in the Corpse harmony, don't you mean 3 frets higher? (Instead of 4)
I guess it depends on how you look at it man. If you count the fret you start on as "one", then the harmony I'm describing is the fourth note when counting is succession. But if you count the second note as "one", then it's three frets away. So I certainly don't disagree with your inquiry, but again, it's how you look at it. You say tomato, I say tomAto🤘
That mystery riff around 1645? Is that a Lexus jumps riff? I wasn’t a huge fan of em although they did have some rather brutal moments!.seen em at peabodys (rip) bout half dozen times! Idk? Just a guess!..anyway..much love rob!..miss seeing you guys at the agora and peabodys! Goddamn..that makes me feel old! Ha..you’ve always been in my top 5 list of guitarists/song writers!..it was awesome running into u guys after shows or other Cleveland scene shows! Chimaira,integrity,deadeven,years of fire etc..damn,I really miss that shit!
At least we can still pick yer brain on here! Love these videos! 🤘
Awesome Josh! I appreciate you being down for song long!👊 That mystery riff is from a band called L.I.G.H.T
what is the title of the song at the end?
Goddamn Criminal from my band, The Elite! 👉 ua-cam.com/video/S5VdEsgZqus/v-deo.html
thanks so much for this video ... this is by the best video ive seen that has helped my guitar playing ....KEEP IT THE FUCK UP !!
Awesome Tim!🎸
Really cool lesson there Rob. There was some chords that I would like to know about and they are # chords as in lets say C# and minor chords. I never really played them. I mostly just played power chords of as you said "Fourth" I just knew them as double notes. I did play octave chords. Most of the time at the beginning of my songs or sometimes at the end. And sometimes also had hammer on's and pull off's just to make what ever I was playing sounds better. Anyways just to end this, Hows your studio coming along this week? So take care of yourself and be safe.
Right on Darren! I can't really comment much on those # and minor chords. I'm not really familiar.
Build is going great! Painting starts soon! Next big update will be when everything is complete!🤘
@@RobArnoldWorld So glad to hear that things are going well for your new studio Rob. It's going to be really to see it all finish and ready to go. PS thanks for your likes on my group page on Facebook and just to let you know that Andols are now joined the group and there are some members wishing Andols are the best. He even said that it was weird asking my Questions after all Andol was in Chimaira.
Your guitar is so fast. Ive had one for ten plus years and I usually cant put it down. Thanks for the tips.
Haha right on!
That harmonic riff sounded like Snapcase 🤔
Close but no cigar! It was a band called L.I.G.H.T
Ever hear of them?
Rob Arnold I have not. I was way into Strife, Integrity, all those bands on that first Victory Records compilation. Not sure now if Snapcase was on that but,.. hard back then to get anything in South Georgia. L.I.G.H.T. floating around on the net somewhere?!?
RA (the fucking champ) in the house, what you gonna do, go AWOL! Can't wait till you achieve the reignition of that one band you played in with Mr. Hunter.
Hi Rob! Greetings from Argentina. I wanted to ask you, what string gauge do you use for Drop C tuning? Greetings and thanks!
Yo Cris! 11-52! Cheers bro!🤘
@@RobArnoldWorld Thank you so much! Happy new year Master! ♥️
Fucking A, what a great video!!!!
ЧЬИМИРРА!!
Чумайра
killer riffage
🤘
Can we ever expect another DVD lesson/techniques like your first one (Rock House), with maybe more advanced material?
Not sure! DVD's and physical media are obviously (and sadly) becoming obsolete. So while the thought of it is certainly interesting, the hope of it happening unfortunately slips further away day by day.
@@RobArnoldWorld I understand, there are digital download options I'd hope you'd consider. Either way keep up the content! We are loving it 🤘
Hi Rob! Which string set is your favorite? 🤘
I'm using DR High-Beams 11-52!
@@RobArnoldWorld Thank you! :)
