Those maj9 no5 chords are so gorgeous. The first time I played one by accident I turned it into a cute little chord progression/song almost immediately.
Steve what I liked about this video in particular was that it felt more chill and less scripted and more from the heart. You seemed be really enjoying yourself playing through those tunes, more so than usual. Great vid!
@@lol-od4ip Yes, desperately. Superior Drummer 2's legs are beginning to wobble, and with me driving... I shouldn't really even say how bad it is, and how much time and effort I put into all the square pushing.
2:26 Don't Hate Me was my first taste of emo, and just hearing those opening chords makes me feel something really special, every single time. 3:03 Your song is also so good, I love how you can use all these same chords and still change it up, every single time.
Great Video as usual Steve! First off I gotta mention how much I love the Tricot 3 poster in the background early in the vid. As for my fav chord in the video... EMaj7 has to be my personal favourite chord here. Just such a perfect sound on every note.
Thanks for those chords, always a great help for creating new cool stuff. This videos from you and trevor wong really saved me from boredom during this lockdown. From Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
started guitar a week ago, love watching your videos! It is really motivating to learn when you show us such nice cords and with such enthusiasms! Thanks!
the Emaj9 with the open E and the m7#5 chords are two of my favorites. The latter definitely lends itself more to proggy stuff, I think. Almost a suspended sound
Very cool video. I recently fell in love with this genre, and even more recently I've begun attempting to play in this style. While my fingers can't quite make a lot of those pretzel twists yet, this was still a very helpful video. It's always fun to broaden my chord library :D
Joe chord 1 is a chord I stumbled upon a while back when I first started messing around with possible chord shape. I have never seen it actually contextualized. It's probably one of my favorite chords. I'm irrationally excited about finally seeing it be talked about haha
It’s a Dmaj7sus2 DAEAC#E tuning is basically this chord as your open chord lol. If you want open strings with it, you can play it in the key of G instead of A which would be x3000x (Cmaj7sus2 obviously). Sounds great clean, and with distortion you can get a really nice wall of just “noise” going
Honestly I find that a lot of the drone-y open string chords give you that midwest emo sound really well. A really happy sounding major 7 chord happening at the same time as, depending on the chord, pretty dissonant open string notes that don't fit the chord but somehow work, suits the genre super well.
As a drummer simply trying to have a grasp on the guitar for music's sake, I dont know if I am yet qualified to pick from among these chords. But I sure love trying them out. I cant quite write much without it being straight up plagiarism of your riffs so far. I'll get there tho. P.s. thanks for returning my socks. Now have you seen my aqua guitar strap? I cant seem to find it anywhere. Lol
Just want to watch UA-cam before go to bed and see your new video professor). Again wonder that you can play on guitar.(something unusual, you know) See you on Tuesday. Good night )
incidentally the "perfect" chord that rob is talking about is the opening chord to Lefty by Title Fight (and also is the chord the song is sorta built around), which just so happens to be one of the best songs ever made
is midwest emo easier to play in different tunings than the standard which i think is supposed to be eadgbe ? i've seen so much about the other two you mentioned but am wondering what would be good to start learning with once i get a guitar
Hello. Thanks for the question. I recommend trying stuff out in standard tuning first, then move to FACGCE because it's not too different from standard tuning. I recommend learning a few riffs in that tuning to get you started: Never Meant (American Football), Parachute (Covet), Crocodile (TTNG), Goodbye (toe). Hope that helps, and good luck! Happy to have you onboard.
I learned about that the sound I've loved so was called math rock from podcast trash taste because he mentioned that he loved the intro of Tokyo ghoul season 2 more than season 1 and I absolutely agree and he mentioned math rock so now I've just been learning about it a lot now
Тот самый момент, когда давно играл эти аккорды и находил их звучание необычным. Может хватит называть семерочки и девяточки тру мидвест эмо аккордами?

To hear someone use the word "Midwest" in a reverential way makes my heart very happy
So let's just see
, What happens, When the summer ends 0:55 haha
This chord is literally that entire song in a nutshell
HAHA BEST
Bro that’s exactly what I was thinking
Steve what I liked about this video in particular was that it felt more chill and less scripted and more from the heart. You seemed be really enjoying yourself playing through those tunes, more so than usual. Great vid!
Thanks^^
Whenever I want to have a djenty progressive sound I use some of these chords and add some high gain . I love chords like these
i want to create a new genre with midwest emo and djent as the base
@@bobbirdsong6825 need a drummer?
@@lol-od4ip i am one lol but it might be good to have another
@@lol-od4ip Yes, desperately. Superior Drummer 2's legs are beginning to wobble, and with me driving... I shouldn't really even say how bad it is, and how much time and effort I put into all the square pushing.
EM9 or Joe Chord 2 gave me the most nostalgic feeling being from the midwest! love your videos!
Ура, новое видео Стива! Привет из России, ты отличный человек, удачи тебе.
so take our russian bless adoring
@@aurora_dreambot that's Bulgarian
I remember hearing those riffs from Braid and the Get Up Kids in your older emo/math rock vid. That B/E to B/D# sounds great.
2:26 Don't Hate Me was my first taste of emo, and just hearing those opening chords makes me feel something really special, every single time.
3:03 Your song is also so good, I love how you can use all these same chords and still change it up, every single time.
the b/e b/eb combo was my fav for sure 🤤
Great Video as usual Steve! First off I gotta mention how much I love the Tricot 3 poster in the background early in the vid. As for my fav chord in the video... EMaj7 has to be my personal favourite chord here. Just such a perfect sound on every note.
very much appreciate this thanks, would love more!!!
This channel keeps me motivated and inspired to learn more on guitar
Thanks for all your effort and time Steve!

Man I love that Amaj7. Reminds me of Too Loud / Too Cold by Kurt Travis. Awesome video Steve!
It's an awesome chord, right? Has this darker mood to it. Love it.
the Emaj9 with the open E and the m7#5 chords are two of my favorites. The latter definitely lends itself more to proggy stuff, I think. Almost a suspended sound
That C#m7 to Bm9(no5) is so nice.
great video Steve!
Glad you enjoyed it
Wow, I felt in love with this channel
cheers!
Just bought the ebook last night to wake up to a new video !! Stay outta my head Steve !! Loll
Haha 🤣

I'm pretty excited about it, too!
It’s a Dmaj7sus2
DAEAC#E tuning is basically this chord as your open chord lol.
If you want open strings with it, you can play it in the key of G instead of A which would be x3000x (Cmaj7sus2 obviously).
Sounds great clean, and with distortion you can get a really nice wall of just “noise” going
cool i like that riff. thank you!
Steve just doesn’t miss
Thnks Steve!
You're welcome!
Good video Steve as always!
00:25 opening chord for make it with you by bread
I liked that last ma9 chord at the end of the video a lot.
tasty chords 😍..i downloaded the rob scallon video earlier..endless chords from his shape
💙Emaj7💙 All the way 🙂🙌 Great video Steve, your amazing
Thanks so much!!
viim7#5 is the question that makes you go "oh...". Works well at the end of a minor riff as a cliffhanger.

The D major 9 is great. Reminds me of Kynwyns Birthday by standards
For me it's always been add 9 chords with a fifth or maj7/9 chords without a fifth
Maj7 and Maj9 chords are so yummy :) Rob said it all!
Thanks!

I definitely haven't seen it... 🙄
Steve do you like the bands Marietta or Camping in Alaska
Haven't listened to them enough to have an opinion about them 👍
Wow. The Get Up Kids reference.
that A/D is the most midwest emo sounding one OwO

What happened to that purple telecaster in the background? - the strings seemed to have come off!
Was having an issue with noise so I took them off to have a look underneath
I really wish I was in a midwest emo band
This guy have a cover of 3 (tricot????????)
Man I love that album too.
That chord Rob was devoting his life to is pure Eddie Van Halen. He used it all over the place.
My favourite get up Kids song
i wish i had a guitar to practice this with

I’d love to see C#G#C#FG#C#. One of my favorite bands uses it and I’ve been trying on my own to figure things out
You could try chords and scales for DADF#AD since it is that tuning just a half step down
Where can we listen to that “Persimmon” song?
Is there a bright emo chord progression?
Did you publish the song you mentioned at 3:00? I couldn't find it!
someone is the comment mentionned it as ''iridium'' hope it helps 🌱
Yay the cutie guitarist makes a new vid. It's a better day already.
I learned about that the sound I've loved so was called math rock from podcast trash taste because he mentioned that he loved the intro of Tokyo ghoul season 2 more than season 1 and I absolutely agree and he mentioned math rock so now I've just been learning about it a lot now
thx man thankssssss
Cmaj9 is my go to also esus2
Where's the sweater from? :D
Me likely every chord
🙌🙌🙌
For me, the most Midwest Emo chord is some version of a iV chord add9. Just destroys my heart to hear two pairs of stacked fifths like that
2:24 woahh is this what inspired you to make iridium?
I guess it did 😅
You have to make your own chord!!!
That's the secret 😉
@@LetsTalkAboutMathRock Interesting...
cmaj9
yo I got the same tricot poster!
Next Video: Midwest Emo Chords vs. Midwestern Emo Chords
I see that Danish Pete tele missing its strings Steve, what's goin on there 👀
Was having a grounding issue so took them off to look under the plate 👍
epic video steve. i wish you were my dad
emaj9 always
You need that minor second inside of a chord
Joe chord 2 is basically a minor 11th if my ear memory serves me.
-a midwestern emo jazzer.
I think it’s a C major 9
My favorite ❤
It’s mine as well!
Maj7sus2 all the way
I'm watching this because i'm too lazy to tune my guitar to FACGCE
