- This week's Flashback Friday is Emarosa's 2008 album Relativity. there isn't a single note that I don't love on this album, this, for me, is by far the best thing Johnny Craig has ever produced. If you haven't experienced this album then go and buy it NOW!

this is absolutely this peak of Jonny Craig's vocal career for me. he is flawless no matter what but this is my favorite album he's been a part of.
TUTORIAL, TUTORIAL, TUTORIAL!!!!!
This whole album is absolute perfection from top to bottom. It has been a huge part of my life since it came out. It is so n every playlist no matter what the occasion. It’s perfect. I love it and I love you for playing it so well. Beautiful string work my friend.
Same here, I LOVE this album still now, still listen regularly. Definitely the best thing they've done 😃
Mikerisms ... unfortunately they have gone in a direction since then that I just don’t understand and I haven’t enjoyed their more recent releases since the line-up change. Johnny was the life and death of that group, I feel like. But that’s a whole other conversation for a whole other video.
@@johnosucha The first two album's with Bradley really were good imo. They weren't this, but they were for sure good. After that I stopped keeping up.
@@theecarking I just can’t listen to any of the new stuff with the new singer. He’s no where near as good a vocalist as Jonny Craig and musically they went so much more poppy and radio friendly once they got Bradley and I was just disappointed in how much softer the music got. Obviously trying to be more digestible to reach a wider audience and reclaim a strong following that Relativity gained them. And also I think relativity is just one of those once lifetime albums that just can’t be replicated. The album after it (which I love) had the same line up but still couldn’t replicate the sound they created with Relativity. Idk. It’s my favorite tho and I have been listening to it regularly since it came out WAAAYY back when
Johnnys work with DGD was his best imo but I agree this album is perfect. As always excellent cover dude!!
Dakota-Lee Penn Thanks 😀
Don't get me wrong, I think JC was the best singer in DGD, but his work with emarosa stands out more because its just a band more focused around his voice and not having obligatory screams from a dedicated screamer in every song. When you hear screams on the two Emarosa albums, you know those were from JC and it adds a bit to those moments.
I still come back to this cover now and then just for a little boost in life
This was one of my favorite albums in high school along with Saosin's self titled (which you should totally do a cover off of) but it really showed me how powerful of a voice Jonny had. Despite his poor choices he has always had an excellent voice. Amazing cover my dude!
Mike, thank you for doing this cover! Every song off of Relativity has this sort of grandness and explosiveness that leaves me in awe after every listen. Keep up the good work my dude :)
Jackson Bruner Thanks dude! Yeah, there's not a note on this album that doesn't make you feel something special!
Please do a tutorial or tabs
I must learn this song
This was another fun one to write. So many memories! Looks fun to play too :)
Mark Johnson Damn right! This has been my favourite Flashback so far. It'll be hard to top it.
was jc's best album
Legendary333 100% agree
Joseph Bastidas Absolutely!
Legendary333 JC had to step it up more with those fire vox, after what happens with DGD
You could fill in for anyone. Amazing skills. Truly something.
nothing feels real anymore
Emarosa, and Jonny are a A1 combo. I feel like if Kurt and Tilian did a song the world would crack in two!
Tilian actually tried out for Emarosa. They have a couple demos together. 🔥
Possibly your greatest outro ever I always come back for not only the song but your genuine reaction at the end. Love your videos man.
This cover is really awesome! This is my fav jonny craig era, his vocals are just perfection, and Relativity is probably at least in my top 3 favorite albums to exist. Well done 👏☺️
i keep coming back to this cover ever since you posted it. you got me back into this album after years and the way you described it is 100% accurate. I would love if you could do a tutorial for this song
definitely some of his best work. I love dgd but this album had a maturity and a weight to it. great job. I love your enthusiasm!
One of my favs! Thank you for uploading this!
You astound me every time you upload a video! This is my ALL TIME FAVOURITE ALBUM!!! Incredible!!!!!
Create_ Consciousness Thanks! Yeah, this album is absolutely incredible.
Lower Definition - Miami Nights or Hollow Vessels would be sick covers
Just you wait ;)
Man you killed it! Great job! And I could not agree more, I come back to relativity year after year and just think.. my god.. this is perfect
5 years later and I'm just finding this video. I love it and wish there was a tab to go with it, the ones on UG are close but not the same
I was 12 in 09 and found relativity and it shaped my whole personality and mindset. I swear the tasty licks and just beautiful, complex song writing motivated my brain to find patterns and be interested in the difficult. I love science and engineering. I'm a welder and I'm going to engineering school and I won't be able to do it without music like this. God I wish it were 2012 again.
This song makes me want to cry it's so GOOD
Ned Lockard Ditto!
Ned Lockard Ditto!
Dude, i felt the goosebumps too!! pls can you cover "Miracle" of Emarosa pls
Excellent job, one of my favourite albums of all time.
amazing track. amazing cover. amazing player. thanks!
You’re easily becoming one of my favorite guitarists... that’s saying a lot
Jay Wright That's awesome, thanks so much dude 😁
2021 , from brazil, the best cover that i`ve seem, congrats bro!!!!
Sick
amazing
Origin Robinson Thanks!
That was my first, full-frontal exposure to Johnny Craig (after hearing him on a Lower Definition's "Pueblo Cicada"). This is also my favorite song on Relativity. Thanks a lot, Mike! You're my spirit animal. Keep up the awesome stuff!!!
John Smith Thanks dude! This is definitely my favourite Johnny creation, I loved him in dgd and wondered what he'd do after they kicked him out. Then to come out with this destroyed me!
John Smith You're from San Diego. I used to live there and Lower Definition was huge there
I'm not from San Diego. :) I was huge into the scene and actually heard about them on Myspace when I lived in Hawaii back in '04-05.
This looks so fun to play! What’s the tuning? & have you done a tutorial for this?
1:28-1:40 eargasm
Brilliant. Great work.
Johnny always has so much power and soul pouring through his music. Gotta love it. DTBM2 is my personal sweet spot for him, but this album was incredible for sure! Awesome stuff as always, Mike.
Kevin Hjelm Thanks man. Yeah, his voice just emotes so much.
ahhhh such a good song!! Thanks for the cover, definitely the best one out there. Pretty clear picture of chord shapes which is nice, but its still difficult for me to figure out what you're playing sometimes XD I've got about half the song at this point..
I can't figure out those chords on the chorus... >.
Can you cover i still feel her part 1? Awesome work!!!
jackson lifsey Thanks! I can, it was between that song and this one for this Flashback Friday, I chose this because the guitar seemed a bit more intricate. But I Still Feel Her is my favourite on this album!
Outstanding album, brilliant job man!
Jake Wilson Thanks dude 😀
great cover! I would love to see one for I Still Feel Her Part 1 as well 🙌
Perfect jamming! Is there a chance that you create a guitar tutorial video for this masterpeace?
🙌🙏🙌 thank you dude. gave me goosebumps too. haha

Awesome job! Tutorial time for this?
