Guitar Pro/Tab software helps. You start out with a basic idea, throw it into tab software, it's written down so you don't forget it, then you're able to manipulate notes and add things you wouldn't otherwise have been able to improvise. I am 100% positive he uses tab software, as does virtually every prog-metalcore band.
@@thestoebzlol who other than jesse, Ive been playing guitar for almost 20 years and he's the only one I've heard of doing that. Not saying it doesn't happen but i don't think it happens that much.
Yeah it was sick, but I guess that they stabilized it with automatic tracking motion of his hand in After Effects or something like that. Not crazy difficult, but nevertheless very impressive
@@fharl2129 pretty sure its Sean that does the chorus riff. Not taking away anything from Jesse, he indeed can sing while doing leads, but in most songs its always Sean (or Alan before) who does the riffs in choruses
It's heavy, modern and by far not pop-ish. This song is the evolution of the Erra without losing the characteristics of the band's sound. I love when bands do it.
The dog being all cute staring into my soul like "look at you about to torture yourself again trying to play along to this" for the 1000th time. It just loves to see me suffer
He’s definitely not one of the most influential guitarists of all time. You have to be super famous or at least commonly referenced by other guitarists for that to be true.
@@48956l Yes he is in metalcore. It's not even really debatable. He's not as influential as like, JB Brubaker from ABR for the metalcore scene, or the Meshuggah guitarists, but pretty close.
Bands like this need to release an instrumental version of the record when releasing a new album... I dont think ppl appreciate just how good some bands are until they can just focus on the instrumental part. I know Protest The Hero put out an instrumental version of one of their records in the past...
Yeah. This actually sounds way better than the whole mix. Thr intensity is so drowned out in the full song. I feel everything is too compressed in the full mix and the vox (heavy and clean) drown out the outstanding guitar playing here.
Dog: sigh, another magical mind bending song. can't he just play like a nickelback song? Damn man. This further proves Jesse's and erras importance, skill and magic more. Classic echoing soul chilling wonder, melodic mystical ancient discovery and emotional brutal dreamy love. Reminds me of the outsider by veil of maya too. nice ghost atlas shirt, wonder whose the singer. Love you like snow loves blood. Keep shredding with soul my soul brother.
@@gh0stdem0n666 Generic? Upload a video of you playing this and singing cleans at the same time you’re mind can’t fathom how hard this is to pull all alone without singing
Even generic can become unique and vice versa. It isn't what is like others or basic but their reflection of it and jesse makes riffs and compositions I've never heard of. How they capture the setting, atsmosphere and soul. No one sounds like erra and if they did, they still couldn't replicate them.
I remember they made a shirt of Mona Lisa with Jesse's face in it and it just got stuck in my head. Now watching this playthrough and realizing that Jesse is the literal embodiment of Mona Lisa.
This man's ability is something to behold. Incredible technique. What blows my mind even more is how he comes up with ideas for these songs with all these different sections and components to them. Very impressive, Jesse. My respects to your great playing as a fellow guitarist.
This has to be the hundredth time I have played this and the full version. Honestly, one of the absolute best riffs ever played. I have yet to feel like it's overplayed even tho I listen everyday heading for work. If I can cover this song completely..... I can die happy.
0:29 he misses the tap on 10th fret, top string, and pokes his finger behind the fretboard. Makes me happy that even Jesse messes that part up lol. It's hard to hit that
@robotmodeactivatedmusic7716 The sound and the video are separate. It's not a live audio track. The sound is from the actual instrumental track on the record.
Honestly, to know you are singing over some of these riffs gives me the same feels I used to get at early Fall of Troy concerts watching Thomas Erak. Keep slayin' man.
You're still so damn underrated. It's sad to see that one of the favorite bands don't get the appreciation they deserve. I would love to go to more of your shows. I only saw you once wich makes me sad. With this set you made clear that you occupy a very big peace of my heart. Thank you for your music. It's just pure magic to me and gets me out of my head and to completely other places I can't discribe.
Jeeeeeezzz ... I swear Jesse is the most talented player in modern prog/metal right now. My hometown heroes. Vestavia crew checking in. I can't wait to throw down with you guys at Iron city! You guys are bringing an INSANE lineup!!
My hands hurt just watching this. So good!
Spiritbox and Erra North American tour one day plzz😭😭😭😭🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼😈😈😈
Hi favorite band!
im so happy i found my favorite band in the comments of another favorite band. now when you both release a new album.... i can die at peace.
www.dropbox.com/s/5lwc7d6t6uvwb0h/ERRA%20-%20Snowblood.pdf?dl=0 here the tabs. now your eyes can bleed too. At least your ears are in heaven
When you just listened a song from Spiritbox after listen this Erra video
Finally these two band are Here😌
Yeah the riffs are incredible to listen to and watch but what gets me is that he wrote this. Like his brain was able to spit this out. Incredible...

Damn, that part was sick as fuck!
Yeah it was sick, but I guess that they stabilized it with automatic tracking motion of his hand in After Effects or something like that. Not crazy difficult, but nevertheless very impressive
Musical god jesse is
wym bro he was obviously shaking his guitar up and down very rapidly while keeping his hand steady
And he sings during this...
He sings during chorus on this one, like At 0:43, still a pretty hard riff to pull off while singing.
It boggles the mind bruh

@@ngango9158 Jesse was the one singing the chorus part in the music video.
Definitely lol'd at the editing during the trem picked harmonic part
Yeah that part had me
The dog zoom was 10/10
Yea it caught me off guard too lmao
Late to this. But this is wonderful.
The fact that Jesse sings during the chorus of their song blows my mind. He makes it look so easy, I wish Erra would get the recognition they deserve!
It's heavy, modern and by far not pop-ish. This song is the evolution of the Erra without losing the characteristics of the band's sound. I love when bands do it.
Eh
That chorus is pretty pop-ish but there is nothing wrong with that! A little catchy mixed in with progressive stuff is what makes it so good.
It's very popish and catchy!
Especially when they nail it as well as these guys!
Needs Garrison Lee back

Jesse Cash is my favorite guitarist. I’ve looked up to many over the years but the way he composes is mesmerizing
Anyone else surprised that it didn’t take 3 hands to play that solo?
That's why we have 10 fingers :)
i see you everywhere bro
Periphery did it too
I could watch those hands moving on the fretboard all day
Weird kink but aight
Youre a weird kink

He's not, but not because he shouldn't be. Criminally underrated.
I'm addicted to this track, nasty playthrough
Harper stole the show, no questions about it. 10/10, high recommend, a good boy
The riffs this guy come up with are somehow simultaneously catchy and fucking ridiculous
Forgot I had the YT speed on 1.25x and was like YOOO THIS MAN IS INSANE lol
Man, he’s insane even with speed on 0.5
When you speed it up, in the beginning it sounds like he's riffing some deathcore haha.
I practice the song at 1.25x speed before actually playing it at normal speed that way I hit everything I want to 😂
That sync on the dog eyes moving is inspired.
Dog was like damn that’s good lol

Thornhill did that as well
I think releasing instrumentals should be industry standard, i would definitely buy more albums if indtrumentals were included
More and more bands in the metal scene are actually doing this. I’ve seen it more and more frequently
August burns red has done this a couple times as well
he makes it look so easy... bruh it literally took me a month and a half to learn to learn the first minute of eye of god.
Well, he did write it...
@@snop6176 true, anything you yourself write is kinda automatically easier to play
@@snop6176that makes it more impressive
Really wish that he would do one of these for Dementia!! He's hands down my favorite guitarist!
Demintia is a O.G classic and my favorite along with Frostbite that ending had me feeling some type of way

I still wish I could buy that shirt. They had a very limited run and I didn't manage to get one.

Alternate picked harmonics. That’s a new one
It’s so sick
Agreed... Plain old filthy
Not exactly. Ever heard of Irreversible? In terms of erra, this technique is 2 albums old
@@chadmarx7718 yeah, it’s basically that riff but twice as fast.
This is sick. Really wish y'all would have released an instrumental version of Drift and Neon
This deserves more views. What a song, what a guy, what a video.
Best single of 2020 ❤️❤️ (imo)
Agreed.
Slnt Plnt’s Trilogy is what does it for me.
I will never understand how his hands and brain process that shred and sing at the same time. Excellent song.
1:13 is the auditory equivalent of seeing someone's eyes start glowing white
Each seconds shows that we are nothing compared to him
love jesse cash... all my homies love jesse cash

Just waiting for my guitar to grow it's wisdom string to have enough to even try.
This man is pure talent.
This is how far guitarists have come. Idk how someone comes up with this but genius!
splitting the pickwork into tapping seamlessly like that is some pretty advanced stuff to look so easy
one of the prettiest RG's in the game

When is Jesse's Ibanez signature going to happen?
@@hler7576 I mean, you can. It’s a production model Ibanez RG752LWFX that he had an aftermarket pickguard made for.
@@MarkLePage But I mean he deserves a new one specifically designed for him!
@@AuraFragment I couldn’t agree more!
I'm surprised and kind of disappointed they haven't given him one yet. It's VERY long overdue.
Do you know what one he's using currently...?
I want one soooooo bad but cant find it anywhere.
That riff right after that beautiful solo gets me every time
so glad to have met these guys. super down to earth.
i love that tone
Super epic from 0:00-4:12. That was my favorite part.
This guy might just have her most epic riffs I’ve ever heard
Man i can say Jesse Cash, JB Brubaker, Adam D are legends with their riffs.
This man is the dictionary definition of talent
2:48 - 3:12 loving the TOOL influence! I wish that riff went for another 4 minutes longer with a fat build 😆
I love the ending, He knows that breakdown at the end is so hard
Jesse you are the man. I mean seriously a legend in your own rite. This song is the shit.
The little intricacies throughout are nuts... So many details I had not caught from just listening to the full song.
1:10 to 1:29 - don’t think I’ve ever laughed at something as hard 😂
Totally unexpected and out of the blue
Honestly, to know you are singing over some of these riffs gives me the same feels I used to get at early Fall of Troy concerts watching Thomas Erak. Keep slayin' man.
I love alot of the older stuff, but ERRA has never been better than this!
The effect with the speakers with the harmonics was cool af
BEATIFUL
My friend who doesn’t even like metal loves this song. Great job!
Jesse is such a talented musician
I've heard of u guys, but never really checked any music out. Im instantly a fan. Original and absolutely amazing playing and creativity
1:17 doggo is quite impressed
Man... That shit is BEEEEAUTIFUL!
I literally had goosebumps when the chorus dropped
jesse cash is my hero
Musical genius
dude has inspired my writing in so many different ways and now my stuff doesnt even sound like erra anymore
thats insane!!!!
Seeing this band grow up has been a pleasure 🤟🏻Jesse you’re one of my favorite musicians ever, I can’t wait to see what your future has in store!
0:42 RIP Periphery,Veil of Maya etc
dude!!! this dude is so fuckin legit! holy shit! NON STOP PRACTICING FOR ME. his palms mute and harmonics are the fastest ive heard!
I could watch him play all day
This must be the greatest playthrough I have ever seen. The guitar play in this song ist just perfect 😍
Imagine playing this and singing the high notes at the same time....🙌🏻 mad respect.
2:25 sounds like Hybrid Earth it's like paying homage to it ❤
You're still so damn underrated. It's sad to see that one of the favorite bands don't get the appreciation they deserve. I would love to go to more of your shows. I only saw you once wich makes me sad. With this set you made clear that you occupy a very big peace of my heart.

10 points for doggo amazing playing love jesses work
rockin the ghost atlas tee
The close-up of the dog got me
Jesus Christ man...... that finger tapping is mind
blowing
such a crazy verse riff
The breach song is my fav in this erra band ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So sick. Love the tone of your distortion too
These tones are blend of Atrium Audio and Marc Grotz Tonehub profiles
Hands down one of the most talented individuals on this planet. Watching Jesse play is a marvel in itself 😦
really love this technical part (especially the beginning.). Thats one of the reasons I listen to Erra
Dude just keeps getting better and better
Как всегда - на высоте!
such cool phrases and transitions, and that tremolo picking is fucking nasty haha
this made me realize how good jesse is at guitar and how much i love erra
I was listening to this song on my way to work this morning🔥😤🤘🏼 can never go wrong with some ERRA
We love you 😭😭😨🤯
one of the best writers
What a beautiful mind and imagination you have to create such an amazing masterpiece.
I ain't gonna lie, I have LOVED ERRA from start to now, but man I wish I could of seen this transition with Garrison still on the vocals.
ERRA has been my favorite artist since Impulse. Always takes my breath away
Jeeeeeezzz ... I swear Jesse is the most talented player in modern prog/metal right now. My hometown heroes. Vestavia crew checking in. I can't wait to throw down with you guys at Iron city! You guys are bringing an INSANE lineup!!
That harmonic riff part of the video looks like a scene from an action movie
Bringing new levels into existence.
Unbelievable. Jesse is unreal!
God I love shredding but 2:34 is THE RIFF. The drum syncopation is so good.
I jeep coming back for this.
This man has too much power.
My goosebumps have goosebumps
