@@loganagolw not at all, tim henson and lepage are great guitarists in their genre, but synyster gates has a far more competent understanding of melody, writing riffs, soloing etc. Not to mention jazz training etc. Tim henson is good in his niche but certainly not on the level of guys like synyster gates, dimebag, alexi laiho, friedman etc
It's super cool to see that they are just like us. I imagine their are a ton of people here that went through the heavy jam phase in you're teen years into the early/mid 20's. We all wanted to make it and we all thought we could, which is a beautiful thing. What we're watching in this video is a band that put in countless hours of work and wanted it to happen more than anybody else around them. Yes talent, yes creativity, but also yes to hard work.
These guys changed the guitar game in a way like Eddie Van Halen did. Just when you thought there’s nothing more to do with guitar then something fresh comes out.
Wrong. Vocal/Lyric-less masturbatory guitar jack off songs that all sound the same isn’t changing “the guitar game”, smooth brain. It’s perpetuating the downward spiral of modern guitar via the YT trend of technique over everything else. All flash, no feeling. These guys are guitar memes, nothing else.
Lol, when you find the Boomer in the comments who hasn't seen a good guitarist since Van Halen... This style of playing has been on the rise for the last 15 years... Just goes to show, there was probably a thousand Van Halen's before Van Halen, the internet just wasn't there to document it.
@user-eh1vp3ev3c The most popular guitarists aren't always the most talented. Popularity involves a lot of other factors like looks, marketing, luck, etc. But bringing this style into the mainstream counts as innovation imo. It's not easy to do. And 15 years isn't that long really
I WISH i could be at that show. Syn, Zacky, Tim and Scott. Sickest solo moments ever. Really hoping these guys do more shows Polyphia and A7X is like a dream come true combo.
I was thinking of canon in D when they started talking about guitar on UA-cam. That and Victor Wooten were really blew my groups minds. We'd tall show people at school and watch it often. Good times.
Johnny - Bandwagons were started by Northern Gold - a bus company you probably used back in 2005 warped years. They sold their busses and converted like 100 box trucks into mini busses.
I live near Detroit so had to Google the Boxelder bug. I've seen them on occasion and they freak me out. If I saw a whole SWARM of them I'd lose my mind!
We need a tour with polyphia, next time your in Quebec please bring them with you. You guys are literally my two favorite bands and seeing both of you together would be fucking unbelievable. Wish I could have make it across the ocean to see that loll
It's funny, my taste in playing style changed the same as theirs. I started out playing heavy music on guitar, White Chapel, Veil of Maya, Born of Osiris(first 2 albums), Bring Me The Horizon(Count Your Blessings), etc.. and as I got older, I am now more into playing songs by Polyphia, or taking it to a different place playing some John Mayer tunes. I got softer over time, is what I'm saying lol. And I feel you Scott, I turned 31 in March.... Sucks!!! I gotta agree with Johnny, I wasn't very into instrumental stuff until I found Polyphia. I liked Steve Vai, but I wasn't into it as much as I am now.
It also helps if you have good genes for hairgrowth. I come from a long line of bald men. I'm 28 and already have receding hairline, so that makes me look older then i am.
Alright, before anyone feels some kind of way about what I’m getting ready to post PLEASE know that I gets down with ANY and ALL interviews done with Polyphia, ok? So in reference to THIS particular outing I have a sneakin’ suspicion that the interviewer doesn’t know the meaning of the word “prolific”. I’m just sayin’ y’all. 🌹(*ie)
Come on dude, Johnny is great. This is the first conversation he's having with these guys - its a conversation - people interrupt each other in conversations sometimes. Keep up the good guests Johnny!
YES! They need to make a song together. Imagine Polyphia's amazing riffs and then just a monster of a shredder solo from Synyster Gates on the track. They could make an amazing song.
if they really had a perfect life, they wouldn't kill themselves....money & success aren't everything or happiness....balance & control, my friend, balance & control....
Imagine a collab between Tim, Scott and Synyster Gates. how fucking up the riff game would be
crazy talk right there i can see it.
Gates wouldn't know what to do 😂
@@loganagolwnaw Gates would know what to do he studied all different types of music
@@Awfully_good he's not bad, he's great. just a very different caliber of playing.

Very pleased to find this connection between Polyphia and Invent Animate
timestamp?
dude that canon in D video unlocked a core memory for me
Very wild to see “18 years ago” beneath when i searched it. And crazy how virality has changed in that time.
Thanks a ton for the Interview with Tim and Scott, you guys kick tail.
Syn and Zack vs Scott and Tim in the form of a song would be fucking gnarly
The intro is so cool. I'll never stop talking about it
My two favorite bands finally together ❤
Didn't expect this colab! Would be nice if yall interviewd Chon as well!
It's hard to tell you this but Chon's dead buddy... :(
Funny thing is that I used to play local shows with Polyphia when they were shreddy metalcore and now I play guitar for And Hell Followed With 😂
Yeah cool story. Not funny at all though.
I was thinking of canon in D when they started talking about guitar on UA-cam. That and Victor Wooten were really blew my groups minds. We'd tall show people at school and watch it often. Good times.
They are so relatable although they live completely different lives than me. I loved the dive into their way of living.
Holy shit that Canon in D video was the second youtube video i ever saw. The first was cartoon elves farting the song jingle bells.
I’m about the same age as the ax7 guys. I know these guys are totally grown men, but I caught myself thinking, “Wow! These kids are so talented!”
😅❤❤
See all of you in Amsterdam in two weeks🙏
I'm jealous man, gutted that I can't go myself.
So damn jealous of that line up 😂
Halo 2 was my fucking introduction to Steve Vai.
Johnny - Bandwagons were started by Northern Gold - a bus company you probably used back in 2005 warped years. They sold their busses and converted like 100 box trucks into mini busses.
I want a Syn, Scotty, Tim collab so badly.
Avenged Sevenfold x Polyphia.... When? 🤘🤙🎸
1:08:38 tim's laugh is so funny
24:11 "What are you doing here?" Really needs the flavor info lol
love and blessings!
Tim if you haven’t had Plucker’s Hallelujah wings yet? It’ll change your life on wings!
Release lost riff album! Fans would definitely go crazy
Not only was Steve car the one that played the halo 2 soundtrack, but he also improvised the entire thing
Tim mentioning COB made my day, dunno why
Musical colab when?
I live near Detroit so had to Google the Boxelder bug. I've seen them on occasion and they freak me out. If I saw a whole SWARM of them I'd lose my mind!
Nice! Love Polyphia.
i need these guys to collab with 5 seconds of summer dont ask why
and mentioning funtwo was funny lol he did play live with Satch!
We need a tour with polyphia, next time your in Quebec please bring them with you. You guys are literally my two favorite bands and seeing both of you together would be fucking unbelievable. Wish I could have make it across the ocean to see that loll

The "Polyphia Never Come Out" compilation actually exist
So they're gonna stay closeted
1:01:55 Milwaukee's Best?
fuck yeah scott loves halo 2
I’m begging you guys to film the power hour game after Amsterdam
+1 for Puffco gear
Not Puffco. It's made by Heir
dang I wish I could do power hour with you guys lol
Daniel from And Hell Followed With is my cousin!!! Dude's been fuckin shredding for YEARS 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
will there be a video of the power hour... please...
As an alcoholic I'm sad that "Milwaukees Best" and "Steel Reserve" or "211s" as it were not not remembered. Come on boys :)
Snoop & Tim please !
Song title : "Rippin' Trippin' Sippin'" !!
Ok thank you !
R
the next generation of guitarists really scares me
I legit thought they were like 23-24, but as a 29yo who gets called 24 a bunch, I get it and respect it. Skincare is the shit
It also helps if you have good genes for hairgrowth.
I come from a long line of bald men.
I'm 28 and already have receding hairline, so that makes me look older then i am.
LOL, All you have to do is be inside all day playing the guitar. It's the Sun that ages you the most.

Yup. Hahaha. Def using it wrong. Thanx for looking out. 🥸
Jonny is too old 😅😂
🍿🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Him Ten-Zon
I wish they’d let Scottie speak more instead of interrupting him or speaking over him 😢
This interviewer is awful. Good job guys cleaning up his mess
Thanx for watching.
@@DrinksWithJohnny you're welcome, try not to attack your guests😂 damn
@@loganagolwbut it’s my favorite
@@DrinksWithJohnny that's excellent, excellent tactic. Make them uncomfortable. I like it. Gold star!
Come on dude, Johnny is great. This is the first conversation he's having with these guys - its a conversation - people interrupt each other in conversations sometimes. Keep up the good guests Johnny!
Tim Henson is a such a fake kid every time I hear him.
Projecting.
Projecting.
A7X Polyphia collab when?!🔥
Literally tomorrow
@@OfficialTygo you mean the show?
@@OfficialTygo i was there in amsterdam.
Polyphia did open, but i am pretty sure they did not enter the stage during A7X's setlist.
@@xSTONYTARKx you're right idk why i wrote that i was probably high as shit afterwards when i commented that.
YES! They need to make a song together. Imagine Polyphia's amazing riffs and then just a monster of a shredder solo from Synyster Gates on the track. They could make an amazing song.
Its always nice to hear from Tim and Scott they should interview more often
Absolutely love that shot of Jimmy in the background!! 💪
Tbh can't get my eyes off of that
Elder bugs? Yeah, that’ll make you afraid of the dark! Tim Henson is so cute!!
Def learned Iron Man first on guitar, I was 6
Damn them shouting out all of those deathcore bands really brought me back - all of my favorites growing up!
i cannot get over the cat ears XD
Scott's dad played lead guitar on HADES first album Resisting Success from 1987
@20:00 I'd watch a making of Polyphia 5 video
demos album when?
Great Dad
How the fuck are you depressed when your life is literally perfect?
Not how depression works man. It's a chemical imbalance in your brain.
most famous people who commited suicidie also had perfect lives
if they really had a perfect life, they wouldn't kill themselves....money & success aren't everything or happiness....balance & control, my friend, balance & control....
lol how do you know what their lives are like? Life is hard for everyone - even if the problems are different than yours
