  • In this video we'll watch Gojira's Flying Whales live at the Poland Rock Festival. Gojira is a technical death metal band from France. The year is 2018 and along the way I'll point out some of the music theory used in the track. Things like intervals, Chords, scales and key signatures. So grab your axe and follow along muhahaha.

    • @The7empest
      @The7empest 2 роки тому

      @@ligma6496 I love Global Warming a lot, but come on you can’t tell me it’s better composition than The Chant, it’s quite literally 2 riffs repeated over a 7 minute song, it took me all of 5 minutes to learn it on guitar, whereas The Chant took me a few hours to learn. The same could also be said about Born In Winter, literally 2 riffs that repeat the whole song, it’s really pretty simple composition to be completely honest. The Chant has actual lead licks and solos that differ from just playing the same riffs again and again.

      On my turf, here in good ol' Germany, there're some rules given - for one: be nice and take care of the fallen for they are too weak to carry the weight of them heavy stuff, and second: qeue up for the chopping-hatchet-polonaise-action at a breakdown if you can. Intensify with props if needed (can be a toy T-Rex or on a more serious plane - a leek). If there's no polonaise, you're ought to start one - it's the law.
      Only once I was put in my place - at a black metal gig, where some uncultured pig couldn't handle my 'hairy load'.

    Hey Shred, have you checked out Sacrifice's album "Apocalypse Inside"? Checkout the 1st two tracks. Very cool death metal, similar to Death but I think these two tracks perfectly personifies the death metal sound. It's a little older and so maybe not a good one for analysis now but definitely give it a listen.

    I was at a show in 2004 with Slipknot, Monnspell and Metallica with 80k people and the moshpit would go sometimes at half the venue. Absolutely insane, I remember I had to punch and push some guys really hard to survive hahah. Not cool though..
