Nick is a true innovator that's always doing the coolest stuff on guitar. Glad to see him getting this recognition!

[@HenrikHensHuber]

Love how he played the Tool solo and it sounded like a Night Verses solo haha, such a distinct sound the guy has. One of the most interesting modern guitarists right now

[@laurelhardymarx]

As soon as I heard Night Verses, I immediately thought "wow, this music completely and utterly speaks to me". And now I find out Nick has exactly the same taste as me, so that initial reaction makes a lot of sense now!

[@arsonne]

This gent has immaculate taste.

[@colehensley7844]

For real. Every band is a banger

[@Owenator26]

Nick has great taste in music Thrice, Deftones, RATM, The Mars Volta, Opeth I can hear for sure hear the influences in his playing no wonder I like Night Verses so much! Their new album is killer! \m/

[@ilham1908]

More of this please, with song description below.

[@Doomshayde]

Parabola is my favorite tool song to this day, and seeing it played like that opened my eyes on how weird of a riff it truly is. Thank you for sharing, Nick!

[@tamarockstar45]

All of those tracks are really great influences. No wonder why I love Night Verses so much.

[@iron_tyson]

This was so sick. Loved the song choices, especially The Mars Volta.

[@joshhiroti]

I've been a long time fan of Night Verses and never realized how much I'd fully align with all his choice. Each new entry was on point.

[@RTVLD]

Nick is awesome. Cant wait to see yo guys this summer!

[@Sol_1nvictus5813]

Just found this band a few weeks ago and totally fell in love. Now I know why because he’s inspired by all of my favorite bands. 🤘🤘

[@cataenthroll]

he blew me away. again! spot on with that Rational Gaze riff!

[@madeofnapalm]

Not many bands today have a distinct unique sound, but Night Verses definitely is one of them.
I remember first time hearing "Trading Shadows" and being absolutely blown away.
Tone, rhythm, composition - true masterpiece.
And thinking about with this video's new found knowledge I can understand how those bands influenced their sound 😁😁

[@grindcoremaniac]

wow great list of influences and choice of songs.

[@apoplexiamusic]

Damn, we a lot of similar influences!
Well besides the obvious like RATM, Deftones and Meshuggah , big ups for The Mars Volta (from their best album), Opeth and Tool’s Parabol

[@MyUnicornsAreDead]

Gonna need a full version of the parabola cover thanks

[@raen__]

Just discovered you guys a few days ago due to the new album! Fantastic stuff, and a cool video! That solid from Parabola has always stuck with me, too.

[@rockoutmichigan]

Nick's amazing!

[@Coloradiohead]

Basically all of my favorite bands he just riffed on 🤘🏻

[@ScrambleBandOfficial]

No wonder he's my new favourite guitarist

[@biswas01]

Respect on wielding those sweet EBMMs!

[@dompetro]

Homies got killer taste in music!!

[@theunaphotobomber]

Riff Daddy is so clean wit it. Always a fancy lad with his pinky out. Absolutely in love with the new NV album.

[@benjaminreichman1]

😂

[@eduardoGentile720]

He got every pinch harmonic perfectly while playing the parabola solo

[@Ryan_Q3L]

Nick is the coolest.

[@Sailor1010]

Haven’t listened to NV since their debut. Just checked and I’ve been missing out to include a new release! lol. Also I share similar a taste in music so it’s cool see it influencing him too.

[@joshhiroti]

Love this

[@analyticequals]

New Night Verses is tasty.

[@JohnnyBargeldBoom]

When you have to pre-record you favorite riffs with full production, you can see how good of a guitarplayer you are...

[@aninfinitemindofmusicandreams]

Thrice! Damn, haven't heard of them in a long while.

[@rubaidaallen2764]

Meshuggah, Tool, RATM 🤘🤘

[@lolh4x]

Hahah fucking hell yeah dude, Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt is such an amazing song. Gets overshadowed by everything else on that awesome record but it's a banger.

[@NinoJoy]

What's that six string his playing for the Fistful of steel rif ? Looks super rad

[@NinoJoy]

For those interested it s a music man stingray

[@drgnlord2]

[@jeffreylong1478]
