Absolutely, there's a kid named Marcin who plays realistically also. And if you end up mastering all that material there's a guy named Tommy Emmanuel.... possibly even more realistic starting material than this band. I started looking into playing Classical Gas and realized I'd have a better chance performing brain surgery with a plastic butter knife.
Hm playing for about 3 months now. My teacher transcribes songs and I learn them. Considering to suggest this. Let's see if he is capable to create an easy to learn version of this. :D
Remember when I listened to Bream and thought that I might be able to play this in 3 years or so. A year later, when I got quite some better, I realized how good he was, so I thought 5 years. And a little later: never :-)
I was hesitating between learning to play guitar, bass or drums..I was searching music video to help me taking a decision..finally Polyphia made me play flute
@@dakusch don't know 'bout that, i personally would have gone full triangle comitment, you never know what next level could be on any instrument it seems!
There are songs that make me say, "ok, I'm not a great guitarist". But this... makes me say "I'm not even that great at listening to music". Been on repeat for days, still can't get enough.
That's the spirit being able to feel thaht is somehting imagine imagining all of this beautiful chaos I mean thx to full me with this beautiful madness
Funny enough they can't jam for shit. They're all used to having such rehearsed and technical lines and parts to play. Look up them jamming with Steve Vai, it's like Tim Heson is learning his box pentatonics for the first time again lol.
They are technical geniuses. Obviously they can play any song you show them, but they talk about practice and how REPETITION is key. If I remember correctly the one with neck tattoos said that he can't play some of his stuff if he's thinking. It's gotta come naturally
They are pushing the music envelope to a high plain....Not since Hendrix has musician ship, and arrangement, been pushed to another level....THESE ARE NEXT LEVEL MUSICAL GENIUSES !!!!!
Honestly it can either be a display of confidence, or it could mean someone is 'playing god', which I find more likely and terrifying! Because what the actual hell is someone (or something, or a group) doing that constitutes such a sick theme song. That or it's a warning to them
@novasoul99 It seems a bit disrespectful to phrase it that way, wouldn't "I don't believe there is a God" be more polite? That way, you can establish your own beliefs while not discrediting others!
As a guitarist, it goes without saying that I understand why polyphia is famous for their complex guitars, but damn, I gotta say that for me what keeps me listening is the groove of the drummer. Absolute monster.

I do not understand why you cannot give praise to one of them without belittleling the other ones. I do not like this approach, what should i infer from a "drummer is underrated" comment, that the bassist and the guitarist are ass?
@@gorsedh You make some great points, and after looking at some other videos I think the drummer of this band is actually rated very well, I've seen many comments praising him
slowly the percussion has become my favorite part of this band. But really, many of the instruments are percussive in nature in these songs, not only the drums. im stoned
At the end of Tim's "Making of..." ua-cam.com/video/c5YAnO1q3K0/v-deo.html video he says... "...The Clays, who have the very difficult job of translating beats into playable bass and drum parts." This is one of those cases where the music is made electronically first, and THEN they have to figure out how to actually play it with physical instruments and human hands. As a side note, the clip of Tim playing a section after explaining his difficulty in "figuring out how to even play it", is the most effort I've seen him put into playing. I mean; he is incredibly gifted. I understand that he often just makes it LOOK effortless. He is always doing work. But it looks like even HE struggles a bit on this part.
If their are lyrics then that means they are waiting for someone who thinks they can handle the task and post a cover with their vocals and I guess if they like it they'll hit you up from what if seen soo far they enjoy when people do that
One of my favorite parts of any Polyphia video is that everyone looks so incredibly happy to be playing music that they love. Everyone's skill is god-tier, but the passion really makes it.
Absolutely beautiful song! Thank you for choosing the Hall of State at Fair Park as the location for the first half of your video ... it was our pleasure to host you guys. Please come visit us when you're not touring!
@@jaumeprimerelhipsterWhat's wrong with the pick on a bass? It's like using fingers or pick or hybrid on guitar. It's not right or wrong just different technique. At least to me
Polyphia bass player deserves hella credit. He sets the songs off and gives them a pop or even hip hop feel with how basic and tight he keeps the bass line. I feel like if he shredded too hard they would sound like just another prog band
Which, inevitably creates an even more prog feel to their music. The concepts of prog are taken much further with polyphia, yet still remain. Beautiful stuff.
Yeah it's really interesting cause it would also work with a complex high brow approach. But this heavy pocket approach is such a vibe and makes it all feel contemporary.
its incredible because he has such a goofy personality in their content outside of music, then he picks up the bass, enters the zone and becomes an entirely different person
The juxtaposition between the lightness of the acoustic timbres and the absolute heaviness of the riffs and beats... BEYOND excited for the next full-length
I must say I was in a very bad mood and I just discovered this band today. For some reason I'm feeling well now, this is outstandingly beautiful. Thank you Polyphia.
Now we just gotta wait for the release of whatever song the god hand riff was in When i saw the title of this i was expecting to hear it in it but was simultaneously excited and disappointed it wasnt in it lol
Only Polyphia can hype something for 4 years, set the bar unreasonably high with anticipation, and then NOT LET ANYONE DOWN - absolutely wild. All the support in the world, guys.
@@OriginalPuro diehard nlnd fans might not enjoy this new take but there's so much going on here the more i listen the more i fucking love it. 1. o.d 2. Goat 3. Playing god 4. Saucy for me lol
Can we talk about how the video puts the icing on the cake, making this a masterpiece? The comfortable body language of them jamming in the godly mansion with no focus on anything but the feeling in the room is transcending. I’m no musician, I’m a videographer, but I know this is the same feeling you get when everything goes right as music is being played in the room
_"Can we talk about how the video puts the icing on the cake, making this a masterpiece?"_ In principle, sure, I'd love to, but I got a lump in my throat and the talking part is a bit hard. Can we just agree that you talk and I nod? ;) You're doing a great job :) Okay, forget it I'll talk. Yes, exactly. And I'm not a videographer but a musician and physics enthusiast and I love to dance and when I look at a video like this one I can't help but see all of it come together. To me it's all music, the visuals, the passion, the location, the angles, the clothing changes and choices. This is what my mind does when I sit in the sun and see a butterfly hopping from flower to flower, so I might be a bit weird, but really, rhythm is everywhere, from the light waves to the neutrons and the moving air and everything is music in that sense and we all dance to the tunes of the universe.
Yea I’m over here drumming and like whoa that drop in the film after his epic fill on the toms was 1 hell of a lick! Seen them twice in venues they don’t move a lot and now tickets are like $$ but still worth it
Yes music satisfies a language most didn’t know how to speak! However all the senses play into our experiences and memories are tied to that so that’s why these things make us have frisson. I think visually the videographers knew how to clip their music well to fit their following and also how to portray maybe time signatures or dynamic ques to music vs Visual cues 🎉 I was missing the instrumental genres in main stream but now this is pop??
Polyphia has a keen talent on making riffs/patterns that are super energetic / frenetic sounding, but then when you combine everything together it becomes super chill.
The best part about polyphia is their lack of concern for "convention." They take the best parts of some aspects of genres (like the trap bass and percussion) and fuse it with very technical guitar, and then mix in break downs and smooth bridge transitions. Tim is a genius, Scottie is a genius. These guys have a distinct sound that no one else quite has. Love this band from the moment I heard the first song.
@@dafiarsya lol wut they were literally just being I am very smart throwing in words that make him look like he knows what he’s talking about but is just trying to show off. He said nothing about other people or enjoyment for others
they were number 4 for a time at the start of their sttream upon release, by the time the stream ended they got pushed back to 11, glad theyve gotten on trending
Reminds a bit of Dream Theater - yeah, I'm old - but without the vocals. I love instrumentals, especially guitar. But they may want to think about vocals if they want to expand their audience. If they don't, I'll still appreciate their amazing musicianship.
@@brandonmoser4247 I didn’t realize you had an overwhelming galaxy brain that you could overlook how artfully beautiful the melody is. Not to mention the production team really made sure to capture every aspect of the playing, it just flows. I didn’t realize I couldn’t enjoy something without being chastised, lol. Somehow I am getting roasted for saying I enjoyed that the melody was flowing in a way that helps you visualize something. Have you ever heard of, “you can smell this picture” or “you can taste this smell” because things like this trigger thoughts in your brain and accesses memories. Maybe it’s just me? I dunno… but it seems 82 other people had the same thoughts.
Man, this is pure genius. The way you guys blend insane technical skill with such smooth, chill vibes is unreal. Every time I listen, I catch something new in the playing-it’s like a journey every time. Props to Polyphia for always pushing boundaries and making music that hits different. THIS IS MODERN MUSIC RIGHT THERE!!
So yea, this is today's "Guitar Trio" vibe with prog/trap/drum crrazyness that is going to send Polyphia into a whole new world and fanbasae is what I think!
Part of what's I find satisfying about Polyphia's music is that, despite all the technical wildness and flourishes, the melody is always there running under the surface of it all. It never loses track of itself or places all the technical stuff above the melody itself, which keeps it feeling clean.
I saw a few guitar videos lately and heard this style by other players and heard this band named as the inspiration. What they're doing is very technical and difficult, but I'm not a big fan. It basically sounds like: Dipadipadipadipadum Struuum Struuum StrumStrum Strum Dipa doopa pingpongping Strum dipadoopa Strump Pling... To me it lacks soul and fails to take me anywhere. Here's what I mean. Recently, I read a review of Hendrix's Machine Gun performance at the Fillmore that described his enormous talent so well. It said, "other guitarists play the guitar, Hendrix played a war." Eddie Van Halen played a volcano that shook the guitar world. His band was Rock 'n Roll sexual overdrive driven by Eddie and the band's incredible atom bomb sound. That's what I'm talkin'bout. I have eclectic taste too, from classical, to blues, jazz, country, rock, rap, anything that suits my ear. It doesn't have to be heavy. This Polyphia thing is cute little melodies and runs routinely interrupted with technical flourishes that sometimes seem to have no purpose other than to show off whilst ruining the flow of the song. It's all over the fretboard, difficult as all get-out, but doesn't really go anywhere. I'd much rather listen to a far less studied Blitzkrieg Bop because you know the Ramones mean business. Anyways, that's my opinion. P.S. I've seen some good players that post a buncha short li'l bits of covers and orig's. Why not full songs and compositions? Is it a copyright thing? Li'l bits gets old quick.
@@howdy1487I personally love all the parts. Fast or slow or weird. Keeps it very varied and unique. I personally love appreciating the complexity in each individual notes, however fast the sequence, above most other things. If it's just a pentatonic scale or whatever, then no, it's not as appealing to me. Where else can I find more Playing God?
@@raffimolero64 Thanks for the thoughtful reply. So often on social media, criticism is dealt with not by addressing the criticism, but by addressing the author with insults. Your reply helps restore my faith in humanity. Well, a little haha. Your response was direct, articulate, and to the point, quite impressive. I understand your perspective as it was communicated so well. We all have our own tastes and opinions that begin with nature and get filtered through nurture. I'm glad you enjoy Polyphia's music. Art, Literature, and Music are powerful forces that affect our lives. I hope you enjoy life to the fullest. Happy Holidays
I discovered this from a young Chinese woman who translated a cover on the guhzeng. Never been more blown away, had to come listen to the original. Beautiful work, guys.
There's a phrase I absolutely love that is perfect with this, "You're only as good as your drummer." It's really just that this entire band is equally as awesome and they play in perfect unison with each other to make masterpieces like this.
go listen to the aocustic verison and youll see even more how right you are with this comment still sounds great but without drums it sounds kinda flat in comparison
@@derpderpin1568 Far from it, bass players have all the power people just don't know it. We have the power to make or break the rest of the band sounding in key. Problem is people's ear hear it as the opposite unfortunately. A good bassist has more knowledge about music theory than anyone in a band usually.
Itll be good don't get me wrong, but its not uncommon for musicians to have written stuff ages ago that are finally tracked and then released years later. One of my fave guitarists had a riff up on MySpace (approx 2007, I was listening to him while playing Runescape). Released it on an album start of this year.
It's fun seeing people using borderline exactly the same comment as someone else from a different video. On Polyphia's G.O.A.T. music video, a comment by Moktan Karan from a year ago. "I honestly thought I would never be able to play this on guitar 🎸. And here we are, 2 years later, I was right"
everyone says tim Henson is genius but forget about how amazing Scott Lepage and clay gober and Aeschliman are they are very talented in their own way, without them would be not polyphia
Scott's part that starts @0:27 is the coolest guitar part of the song IMO. Tim gets a lot of credit because he's the primary composer of the group. Tim's chops go much beyond that of his guitar skills.
History of Polyphia: 2014: crazy brutal tone and crazy shred 2017: lower gain crazier shred 2020: practically clean tone craziest shred 2022: literally unplugged acoustic beyond even shred 2025: broken plastic guitar hero controller with no strings inhuman shred of the Gods
THIS is why I love being the Special Events Manager at a historic venue in Dallas! I got to meet and watch these guys shoot the first half of this video! GREAT JOB, guys. This song and video are absolutely fabulous!!
My bros, this fucks hard. I don’t know what’s more impressive, the technical finesse, or the fact that they out do themselves every time they make a track
This is a 12 minute song packed in to three and half minutes So many musical ideas and sounds yet it feels laid back and coherent Three and half minutes that feels like an eternity yet breezes by A musical time warp
That is exactly what I love about this song. Too many instrumental songs get boring fast because they are 8 minute plus epics. This beauty is the length of a pop song with the melodies of a symphony. Not usually my thing but hot damn these boys have really captured a new direction in music all for themselves.

Which, inevitably creates an even more prog feel to their music. The concepts of prog are taken much further with polyphia, yet still remain. Beautiful stuff.
It's the drummer who sets everything up. The drummer is literally controling every single change in rythm and synchronizing everything.
Yeah it's really interesting cause it would also work with a complex high brow approach. But this heavy pocket approach is such a vibe and makes it all feel contemporary.
Yall need to stop with this. Each and every single one of the band members deserves equal credit. It's not a band without teamwork.
Clay has such a killer presence with that bass. Very unique, incredible vibe like dude’s in his own world on stage.
its incredible because he has such a goofy personality in their content outside of music, then he picks up the bass, enters the zone and becomes an entirely different person
i met him one night just happened to pass him as he was hopping off the tour bus, they were playing in Trees in Deep Ellum and had no idea lol
He doesn't overplay either. His parts are very tasteful and he fills out the sound perfectly.

Only vai can make you wait the whole song to realise the wrong note was the one were waiting to hear the whole time. Ty for this feature. ❤

The way the drummer and bassist were so in sync is what really had me hooked
Each member of the band is incredible

Can we talk about how the video puts the icing on the cake, making this a masterpiece? The comfortable body language of them jamming in the godly mansion with no focus on anything but the feeling in the room is transcending. I’m no musician, I’m a videographer, but I know this is the same feeling you get when everything goes right as music is being played in the room
_"Can we talk about how the video puts the icing on the cake, making this a masterpiece?"_
In principle, sure, I'd love to, but I got a lump in my throat and the talking part is a bit hard. Can we just agree that you talk and I nod? ;) You're doing a great job :) Okay, forget it I'll talk.
Yes, exactly. And I'm not a videographer but a musician and physics enthusiast and I love to dance and when I look at a video like this one I can't help but see all of it come together. To me it's all music, the visuals, the passion, the location, the angles, the clothing changes and choices. This is what my mind does when I sit in the sun and see a butterfly hopping from flower to flower, so I might be a bit weird, but really, rhythm is everywhere, from the light waves to the neutrons and the moving air and everything is music in that sense and we all dance to the tunes of the universe.
Yea I’m over here drumming and like whoa that drop in the film after his epic fill on the toms was 1 hell of a lick! Seen them twice in venues they don’t move a lot and now tickets are like $$ but still worth it
Yes music satisfies a language most didn’t know how to speak! However all the senses play into our experiences and memories are tied to that so that’s why these things make us have frisson. I think visually the videographers knew how to clip their music well to fit their following and also how to portray maybe time signatures or dynamic ques to music vs Visual cues 🎉 I was missing the instrumental genres in main stream but now this is pop??
I liked the video till the end. The close up of the painting was bleh. Meaning no disrespect with these words, just my observation.
@@barbarawedan6068 the painting push in did seem a bit off to me
Polyphia has a keen talent on making riffs/patterns that are super energetic / frenetic sounding, but then when you combine everything together it becomes super chill.
Nice summary. Agreed.
elevator / telephone hold music
Guess you dont listen to latin music
For anyone who played in a band ..the balance of the instruments in the post production is IMMACULATE .wow i am so glad i discovered you guys...
The best part about polyphia is their lack of concern for "convention." They take the best parts of some aspects of genres (like the trap bass and percussion) and fuse it with very technical guitar, and then mix in break downs and smooth bridge transitions. Tim is a genius, Scottie is a genius. These guys have a distinct sound that no one else quite has. Love this band from the moment I heard the first song.

Dude. What the fuck.. Check out the Aristocrats with Guthrie Govan...
Reminds a bit of Dream Theater - yeah, I'm old - but without the vocals. I love instrumentals, especially guitar. But they may want to think about vocals if they want to expand their audience. If they don't, I'll still appreciate their amazing musicianship.

@@brandonmoser4247 I didn’t realize you had an overwhelming galaxy brain that you could overlook how artfully beautiful the melody is. Not to mention the production team really made sure to capture every aspect of the playing, it just flows. I didn’t realize I couldn’t enjoy something without being chastised, lol. Somehow I am getting roasted for saying I enjoyed that the melody was flowing in a way that helps you visualize something. Have you ever heard of, “you can smell this picture” or “you can taste this smell” because things like this trigger thoughts in your brain and accesses memories. Maybe it’s just me? I dunno… but it seems 82 other people had the same thoughts.

So yea, this is today's "Guitar Trio" vibe with prog/trap/drum crrazyness that is going to send Polyphia into a whole new world and fanbasae is what I think!
Do a reaction to this song please
This is our story and we're sticking to it, aloha!
EY ALRIGHT
Not to mention the Jazz vocabulary being used; this is going to be absolutely fantastic!
Geebs!!!!
Got a lot of respect for a lot of bands. I’m a musician myself. But these guys are straight up kings. Their musical talent is legendary.
Part of what's I find satisfying about Polyphia's music is that, despite all the technical wildness and flourishes, the melody is always there running under the surface of it all. It never loses track of itself or places all the technical stuff above the melody itself, which keeps it feeling clean.
I saw a few guitar videos lately and heard this style by other players and heard this band named as the inspiration.
What they're doing is very technical and difficult, but I'm not a big fan. It basically sounds like:
Dipadipadipadipadum
Struuum Struuum StrumStrum Strum
Dipa doopa pingpongping
Strum
dipadoopa
Strump
Pling...
To me it lacks soul and fails to take me anywhere.
Here's what I mean. Recently, I read a review of Hendrix's Machine Gun performance at the Fillmore that described his enormous talent so well. It said, "other guitarists play the guitar, Hendrix played a war." Eddie Van Halen played a volcano that shook the guitar world. His band was Rock 'n Roll sexual overdrive driven by Eddie and the band's incredible atom bomb sound. That's what I'm talkin'bout.
I have eclectic taste too, from classical, to blues, jazz, country, rock, rap, anything that suits my ear. It doesn't have to be heavy. This Polyphia thing is cute little melodies and runs routinely interrupted with technical flourishes that sometimes seem to have no purpose other than to show off whilst ruining the flow of the song. It's all over the fretboard, difficult as all get-out, but doesn't really go anywhere. I'd much rather listen to a far less studied Blitzkrieg Bop because you know the Ramones mean business.
Anyways, that's my opinion.
P.S. I've seen some good players that post a buncha short li'l bits of covers and orig's. Why not full songs and compositions? Is it a copyright thing? Li'l bits gets old quick.
@@howdy1487 thanks for lyrics
@@howdy1487I personally love all the parts. Fast or slow or weird. Keeps it very varied and unique.
