    One of the reasons the bass hits so hard is because of how well he's synched with the drummer. Both are named Clay (Clay Gober the bassist and Clay Aeschliman the drummer). You should react to their song GOAT from a few years back. It's absolute gold. And speaking of gods.... check out their song "Playing God."

      U said it...the amplitude along with the space they give bassist and kick drum to harmonize together is being much appreciated these days in Progressive "Rock"... polyphony if you will🥁💯🎶🔊🤔

      The main reason is that it's layered with 808

      It's fckin crazy how on time they are. It's mathematical. If I didn't know they had an actual drummer I'd say it was a synth track.

    Vai's become so good at shredding, you can't even tell he's doing it. He's talented enough that he's figured out how to merge it seamlessly with the melody. That said, Polyphia's guys are major shredders, too, and I'd say it's a toss-up at this point as to whether Vai's still faster. Rather than try to out-shred them, he chose a super-legato style with that multiple-string pitch-bending thing he does, and to my ears, I'd swear he made it sing. Reminds me of an opera singer performing an aria.

      Harmonics fucking EVERYWHERE. The way he blended harmonics with bends and chord flips just with half note glisses and minor 6th and 7th intervals is NUTS.

      Didn’t he invent that too? It’s called joint shifting

    • @Savethepandabears
      @Savethepandabears 6 місяців тому

      I'm pretty sure Yngwie Malmsteen is probably faster than both of them

    • @IkenFister

      Guthrie and Malsteem are honestly better at everything and are for more melodic and harmonic. Not taking from vais incredible technical skill but his melodies are kind of boring and sometimes dont sound musical. There are times when he does, but he sucks his own cock too much while he's playing.

    I love Polyphia, and Ego Death is my favourite of theirs. Steve Vai has such an amazing energy, and they work so well together.

    Steve Vai's fingers just move in a different way. If you pay attention to his playing, and really watch what he's doing and listen closely, you'll start to understand just how good he really is. With his playing, it's not about speed, it's about melodic complexity.

    Hola Millie. Saludos desde España.
    Te conocí por tus reacciones a Steve Vai. Esperaba con ganas la reacción a esta canción. No para de escucharla desde que salió. Me parece increíble y Steve sabe como mezclar su estilo para sea perfecta. Polyphia es un grupo increíble, talentoso y muy original en sus composiciones.
    Este mes voy a poder ver en mi ciudad a Steve Vai en directo. En un teatro y en primera fila. Estoy muy emocionado y solo deseo que llegue el día. Va a ser un día para no olvidar jamás.
    Saludos 👋🏽😉

    I'm not sure if anyone else already mentioned it, but Tim and Scott collaborated with BABYMETAL for "Brand New Day" and you can definitely tell.
    Great fan of Vai and Polyphia, I was quite concerned as the song went on, how could Steve blend in, oh, well, of course he did it easily🤩-
    And yes, all the rhythmic part is pretty solid, I mean it has to be, there is a lot of guitar to support here 😅
    🤘🦊⚡

    when vai sent in his solo - they didn't know how to transcribe it, which is so ironic as he transcrbed for zappa. it dun really get better than this.

    You like Steve V you should listen to his mentor Frank Zappa. Try the Black Page. It's almost painful to wrap your head around it.
