    I love how as time goes on the guitars get more rustic. Pretty soon you’re gonna see a band using straight tree slabs with strings on it and you’ll know it’s gonna be the heaviest shit ever

      Holy fuck that's a brilliant fucking idea. Have to go for some heavy wood too. Big old slab of some ironwood, 8 or 9 strings (12 to 92 or something right?), and some bare machine screws bolted into the slab for tuners. Magnets nailed to the body with wires directly soldered to them. No fancy shmancy 'pickups' and shit. We're going for RAW and HEAVY. Vildhjarta, Humanity's Last Breath, and Black Tongue shall weep.
      I want to make this.

    Thank you for reminding me that Wait and Bleed was '99. I was fine knowing that I was listening to Slayer, Metallica, etc. as a kid. Or even my dad's Black Sabbath records when I was still single digits, but remembering that Slipknot (which still feels fairly recent) was actually 23 years ago, just makes me feel old. lol. Hard to believe that album came out a year after I became a dad.

Then Djent started to creep in the scene around 2010-2015 with bands like periphery for example that feed off the old Meshuggah style. It sounds like today rock/ metal is becoming more and more influenced by that rhythmically complex and deep heavy rythm. Makes for awesome sounds.

    I was actually surprised to have a song from the top bracket (drone corpse aviator). I don't like 80-90s straight death metal that much (i.e. cannibal corpse) apart from tech death. It's too much noise and for me that isn't heavy, e.g. Heavy for me is a song called Deadweight by Downswing (despite being metalcore, which is typically shit on for being not heavy. The production is insane, adding extra power to the song, especially the breakdown at the end.)

    Amazing stuff mate, always blown away by your videos and some absolute bangers throughout.
    I wonder if you're in any kind of gnarly pain after playing some of these riffs but you look pretty relaxed! Maybe a few moments here and there being the exception. How long does it take for you to recover if you were to play some of the latter songs like Archspire for a few hours? Again, brilliant video I loved it 🤘

      Thanks man, glad you are enjoying! Archspire, Cuntcrusher, and Demolisher were all pretty challenging ha. I notice a cumulative effect - after a few days in a row, it's definitely time to take some time off

    To be honest the 60s had some really good riffs. Examples can be:
    • Led Zeppelin ~ Communication Breakdown
    • Jimi Hendrix Experience ~ Manic Depression
    • The Kinks ~ All Day And All Of The Night
    • Blue Cheer ~ Babylon
    • Iron Butterfly ~ Unconscious Power
    And the list goes on and on. And although the songs are not necessarily metal, they still are great riffs.

    To me, after 8:11, I wouldn't listen to it. I enjoy the ones before because they are still melodic, after 10:47 it's even worse honestly, you can barely hear anything, it's mostly just noise and that's it.
    Despite not enjoying that, I can still pretty much enjoy Mick Gordon's soundtrack because as I said previously, the melody is strong in those.

      Because they went more extreme to appeal to a niche crowd that constantly wants faster, more brutal and more extreme. Metal has lost its mainstream appeal because of that. It's the heavy jazz nerds genre now.

      I love new metal like Archspire, Veil of Maya, Lorna Shore, a lot of it hits really hard and the riffs are awesome and intense but they are too polished and overproduced, sterile, and repetitive these days. They lost a lot of the rich tones, expressiveness, roughness and basic musicality that makes old school metal still KING 🤘🏼

    It's hard for me as a drummer to hear the drum machine/drummer you have playing for you. Every song sounds similar because nothing changes on the drums. I love your videos man! But that snare and bass needs to change for every song. No two drummers have drums that sound alike.

      Modern metal bands don't care about drums. They just quantise everything and think that that's heavy. Fck that I don't give a shit if a drummer is slightly sloppy, if anything that makes it heavier. Like flo mounier's signature flo blasts on blasphemy made flesh and none so vile.
