I kept listening to prisoner seeing if it was the type of song I need to be familiar with to like. I never ended up liking it and I was worried that the entire album would sound like prisoner. Then this song came out and it was dope on the first listen, and I have confidence in this new album now.
Honestly, I think they just have too many things going on so it's really hard to mix it and make everything sound clear. All instruments have quite busy parts.
To be honest, I like the guitars and how they are mixed. Just because it's not too in your face. It's gives more of a vibey feel with them in the background a little bit.
@@levisundquist4885 The guitars are actually mixed using the side to side technique. Will is generally on the right and the second guitar is on the left. This causes it to have good separation but it also contributes to the direct parts being lost in a mix in the full soundscape. Just listen, theyre there,
It’s partially because of Will’s countermelodies that make it sound “busier” than most guitar tracks out there. I think that’s what makes it hard to articulate each guitar parts in the mix, especially with all the other instruments and vocals layered on top.
Will Swann fucking killed the guitars in this song I love it so much! Especially the section when jon is screaming "I want you to matter to you! Forget those backstabbers"... also I met will at my job I was so stoked!
I was trying to learn it by ear the day I came out and heard this and reminded me how I suck still xD but I’ll def practice with this now :,) I WANT YOU TO MATTER TO YOOOUUUUUU
MAN this is good as SHIT! You absolutely rocked this cover (as usual, and in such a short time!) and I know I can always look to you for amazing and quick covers of DGD music! Keep it up man, what a great job!
Hey pals! Open question for anyone with an opinion: What is your personal favourite guitar work in a DGD song/favourite song as a whole and why? I adore their entire catalogue for various reasons. Personally, Chucky is the first song that I heard from DGD and remains my favourite because of the guitar work , arrangement, and melodic ideas.
Man, if I can ever play Riddles of Humanity I'll definitely cover it, so damn difficult. Been coming back to that song for ages, never quite nailed it yet...YET!!
Cal Wooten he has tabs in the description of you know how to read tabs. I honestly find tabs so much easier then tutorials cause I don’t know my notes or shapes but I can sight read tabs accurately.
Ive been trying to get a good dgd tone out of my boss katana 50 mk2 Any advice Not really a clean tone but like the lead distortion for the tapping parts
I see you caught these positive/funny vibes 🤤 but! I haven’t expected you’ll put that bass line !! That’s awesome , dude!!! Upd: just noticed my note about bass is not the only one here
Hey Mike, the cover is AWESOME, you killed it as always! Tone is amazing as well. Quick question: I have a bass cover of this song, AND of Lyrics Lie (pretty stoked about learning it on day 1) finished, edited, and uploaded. Both of them are copyright claimed. Neither of them are viewable to the public. I just want the world to see my performances, and I'm hoping to cover EVERY song on the new album at some point. How did you get around the copyright claim for this upload? Let me know if there's anything I can do, that would be much appreciated! Cheers
If you go to 'your videos' section of youtube studio, in the list of videos where it says 'blocked worldwide' or 'copyright' or something. There is a 'Dispute claim' option. Just go into that and you have to state your case for being allowed to post the video and send it off to whoever has claimed ownership, WMG in this case I believe.. If you're sucessful (which all of mine have been so far) then it'll get put back up withing a few days usually. If you're unsucessful then you get a stike against your channel, 3 strikes and your entire channel is deleted from youtube. Risky, but I've not had any problems with it going awry as of yet. Fingers crossed that my Lyrics Lie cover will be back up soon! Good Luck!
MIKE! Please help. The chorus of this song reminds me of another song... the line "Clean up the past, say I'm sorry " I know you have a series of videos on songs sounding like other songs. And I'm pretty sure the song in my head is a post-hardcore song, which you would know about. I know it's an old song... i dunno which artist tho. It's driving me nuts.
It's a .Gp file which is guitar pro 7 which is what I use, don't think they open in earlier versions of guitar pro. That's why I add a pdf too. That may be the problem, if you have gp7 and it's not opening then I'm not sure what's up 👍🏻
This is one of the only songs that I can say Tilian just ruins it and doesn’t fit with what is going on musically. Maybe that’s because the guitar work is just so good that it’s all I want to hear, but even before I heard it instrumental I was thinking his vocals don’t really fit the intro or the chorus. That chorus is probably my favorite Swan riff ever.
TAB is now in the description, sorry for the wait folks =)
swan approves
ty kind sir
Had a feeling you were going to play the bass fill.
Killin it
How could resist 😀
I fell in love with this song the moment it came out

This ^^^
I didn't like prisoner at first too but it's really grown on me. The whole album is fantastic
@@renegadegex I like it a little more, but its my least favorite song on the album
You definitely seem to like this song more than Prisoner.
Same here. This is just a better song than prisoner.
Jeff Bell agreed. But after a few listens prisoner really grew on me
River Sharkey Same with a lot of people it seems.
Jeff Bell True. Also, love Eidola. Great band. Glad Sergio Medina joined them. Can’t wait on the music they do together.
everything after mothership is trash, my dreams are crushed. what in the fuck is that stupid bass break too?
Jesus you've got some skilled ears man
I need this tab more than I need toilet paper
Ryan Genis who needs paper we need fingers
Yeaaaahhhh finaly can see your cover.... Not blocked by WMG again :)
Yeah I was there when the video was first uploaded 😂 and then it was blocked
@@pokefanover900000000 same dude.. Hahahha, i'm feeling sad when the video was exist but i cant watch it... :D
Thx 4 your like.
Dude, this was so much fun to watch
This may be the best DGD song so far. It’s got everything. Jon Mess’s screams are so dope in this song.
So many catchy choruses too
Dgd has a big problem mixing there guitars on CD s. That's why I come to Mike's channel to hear Will's guitars as they should be.. loud and clear.

The left/right audio balance between the two guitars is perfect
You killed it
Man this guy fucking killed this cover man, good job!
Killed it!
This was awesome dude!
Will Swann fucking killed the guitars in this song I love it so much! Especially the section when jon is screaming "I want you to matter to you! Forget those backstabbers"... also I met will at my job I was so stoked!
WTF!! why you can play this song as soon as released!?!? amazing as usual.
You should check the videos he does where he transcribes the songs, the process is hella interesting and impressive asf
You are a king amongst men. Can I bow to you if ever we meet?
Such groove and melody ! genius musicians indeed !
Awesome job, glad we got to see it.
Amazing. Also, I was hoping for the bass and got it. Stoked!
Got that happiness vibe going
Thank you for always providing tabs!
Couple of hours late, Mike.
Best cover I've seen on YT!! By far
I love that u play that part 3:04 too
You are so damn quick with these, it's insane! Keep up the great work
Thank you so much for the tab, killer cover!
Goddamn mike. You are fucking amazing at playing guitar. So clean and smooth. Kinda reminds me of kiko loureiro from megadeth.
This was really good to watch 🔥
Never seen a video with only two dislikes on it. Well deserved man, awesome cover. Love your energy.
Always killing new DGD. You're da bomb.
THE FINGER CROSSING WORKED! Great job bro
This is DGD’s most danceable song to date.
HEY!!!! Mike does it again! 🔥
Always nailing these 🙃
Not a single downvote bro. Def well earned
I was trying to learn it by ear the day I came out and heard this and reminded me how I suck still xD but I’ll def practice with this now :,) I WANT YOU TO MATTER TO YOOOUUUUUU

I knew you’d do this cover and damn if this song wasn’t already fun, you made it look fun
good job, man!!! This is fantastic!
Your such a G always on point

Love ur cover bro! keep doing it
MAN this is good as SHIT! You absolutely rocked this cover (as usual, and in such a short time!) and I know I can always look to you for amazing and quick covers of DGD music! Keep it up man, what a great job!
Great cover as always dude! Out of curiosity how did you feel about this one? Like prisoner I had to warm up to it a bit but now I'm loving it
Thanks! This is definitely a big jump up from prisoner, more enjoyable to listen to and a lot more fun to play!
Subscribed mostly for the baseline inclusion, but I also love your love for DGD, and you're fun to watch
i was really hoping youd do the lead in bassline torwards the end! thank you for not disappointing!
Anyone else get Yes vibes from DGD now a days? I love it.
Mike, you’re like band DGD itself. I’m not sure how I’m surprised every time, but I just AM. Keep up the great work 🙌🏻♥️

this cover makes me appreciate 0:37 much more
Shoulda threw in the bass in the chorus too. Love the bass in the chorus the most. Great cover man. Killed it
I could listen to 1:15 on repeat for days
Man, they "HEYYYY" riff must be the hardest in this song
Killing it like always! Are You planing to cover the new w&b song?
I actually really like the new W&B song, the guitars sound damn fun to play, so glad they got Louie back on guitar. I plan on working on it soon 🙂
We need a full bass cover thank you
Please do some bass covers 😫🔥🔥🔥

You the man bro! Please release a tab :(
Tab will be up soon, got all screwed up because the video got blocked for a couple of days so I'm a little behind!
I really like listening and watching you play.
Great job as always...
Can you please cover SikTh : Riddles of humanity...???
Cheers.
Man, if I can ever play Riddles of Humanity I'll definitely cover it, so damn difficult. Been coming back to that song for ages, never quite nailed it yet...YET!!
I saw you uploaded Lyrics Lie, but it dosent show up now. You took it down? Excited to hear it
Yessssssss
Hope you started learning lyrics lie! A great follow up single on strawberry’s wake. Great job!
Worked it out, transcribed it, covered it, filmed it, edited it, uploaded it. Copyright, blocked, deleted by UA-cam! Fun times!
Mikerisms noooooooooo 😭 All that work and that happens. What dicks.
Nobody's perfect, but everyone's searching...
... except DgD, them dudes is perfect
Not sure how much you do tutorials anymore, and this one has a lot of moving parts, but it would be an awesome one to do!
Cal Wooten he has tabs in the description of you know how to read tabs. I honestly find tabs so much easier then tutorials cause I don’t know my notes or shapes but I can sight read tabs accurately.
Bass fill fuck yeah sooo groooooooooovvveee
Ive been trying to get a good dgd tone out of my boss katana 50 mk2
Any advice
Not really a clean tone but like the lead distortion for the tapping parts
I’m lovin’ it, it could use some more SlAp
Epic

I see you caught these positive/funny vibes 🤤 but! I haven’t expected you’ll put that bass line !! That’s awesome , dude!!!
Upd: just noticed my note about bass is not the only one here
When we gettin the tutorial 👀

Why did I just get this notification today
I didn’t even get it. I saw it on recommended. Damn UA-cam.
It got uploaded and then flagged down by WMG for a couple days.
Bawa screw those guys
Bawa they did it again damn it
How about going back to DBM 2 and trying Swan Soup?
Mike could you possibly look into covering the new wolf and bear song? It's a total banger! Love this cover too! :)
Absolutely, the guitars sound so fun to play, I'll get working on it soon 😀
@@Mikerisms Awesome! Can't wait to hear it! Also, hopefully you're faring well with the virus going around! :>
AWESOME WORK!!!! TAbs pliz )))

Nice cover, how did you get the backing track?
Do you have a video for this like you did for prisoner? That would awesome to watch!
That bass solo is so sexy
Yo Mike, check out the band Refractions. I think you might enjoy their stuff.
🍓🔥
everytime i get one of your gpro tabs it says invalid musicxml archive :( googles not helping
It's a .Gp file which is guitar pro 7 which is what I use, don't think they open in earlier versions of guitar pro. That's why I add a pdf too. That may be the problem, if you have gp7 and it's not opening then I'm not sure what's up 👍🏻
@@Mikerisms ahhh makes sense. Appreciate it and appreciate you
How did you learn this song so fast?!?!?!?!
What do you have in those tanks in the back?!
A Bearded Dragon in the bottom one and a Royal Python in the top one =)
Mikerisms awesome!
HEEEEY
Either thats an Evertune of a fixed bridge that looks JUST like it, lol.
