dude must be one of the best bass player of our generation been playing bass since 2008 never seen a style like that slap, funky, groovy, djent, metal 100% feeling
Dude...major props on actually playing the triplets and everything. So many others just play single notes through something like that... Already a huge fan of Issues but i gain more and more respect for you guys with every one of these play along type vids.
Duuuuude, you're like the essence of a bass player...and you use your fingers, just like me! Seriously man, you've got all the groove and the soul for it. You're awesome Sky!!!!
I'm not used to seeing you so calm man. I've seen you guys live twice and no other band has even come close to the same amount of excitement I get when I see you perform. Keep on living your dreams man and don't forget to keep coming back to Chicago/illinois in general ;)
I just wanted to say you really have inspired me, man. You are really fun to watch and this video motivated me to get out of my depression and pick the bass back up. Keep it up!
Put out more of this stuff ! Your talent is great! I just love what I hear ! And the band is going places already but you as an individual have got some great work in your hands !
Okay, THIS is how it should sound on the albums, because there is NOT enough bass on those recordings Seriously, for the longest time i wasn't even sure Issues had a bass player **Sounds AMAZING btw, keep it funky!
There are others but i really respect bassist like him who are in metal bands and use their fingers along with slapping. And of course little bass licks and fill-ins. So sick
Hey Sky, i'm planning on transferring into a music school after community college. What college did you go to and what was your major? I want a better idea on which path would be right for me if I want to be in a band but also have college to the side
Brian Frausto I went to Cornish in Seattle! In my case it was very worth it but that's not always the case. A school like that is what you put into it so if you're about it you can make it happen. My training may not come in handy every day cuz I'm not playing jazz but it ensured my spot in Issues purely on the professional aptitude factor. Basically ppl get starry eyed cuz music school and you get gigs
The file extension for the tab is .gpx and I downloaded a program to open that file type and it says that it isn't a gpx file! Anyone have any recommendations on what program to use to open it?
Skyler! I heard that you went to college in Seattle for a couple years!l I was wondering what college you went to if you don't mind me asking! I go to the University of Washington is why I'm curious.
It seems like more likely you would respond to comments sky, I'm a UA-camr and my next video will more likely be me covering hooligans or young and dumb, is it okay if let you know when I upload it so you can tell me what you think? And also show the whole band if possible.. Let me know, I'm just a stranger but maybe hoping to see if you guys can tell me what you guys think of it
Get this guy an AP award
Sky is insane, my favorite bassist by far. Can't wait for warped.
I love the fact he mouthed "Weiner" at the pause at 2:14 !!
lol good eye
bahahahahahahhahahhahahhhahahhahahhaahahhhahhah
omg that made my day.

This guy is literally the only reason why I listen to Issues.
A big fan skyler , man your bass skills are a on a whole different level bro! Love your music
Well deserved winner of the best bassist AP award!
I'm not used to seeing you so calm man. I've seen you guys live twice and no other band has even come close to the same amount of excitement I get when I see you perform. Keep on living your dreams man and don't forget to keep coming back to Chicago/illinois in general ;)
You ever seen letlive. live?
I love that you're a rare kinf of metal bassist. Love that you slap
I came for the bass like 2 days ago and still clicking that repeat button... Awesome bass line and that sound
he's born to be bassist
I just wanted to say you really have inspired me, man. You are really fun to watch and this video motivated me to get out of my depression and pick the bass back up. Keep it up!
It's awesome seeing guys (and girls)having fun while also playing the music they love. Great video man.
Nice to see some plucking in this genre. That tone is awesome.
Right? I know a lot of bassists would use a pick for this.
I want more!!!
I want more of yours too
oh there will be!
Skyler Acord hope you also do the acoustic version of this you playing the acoustic guitar. :D BTW awesome playing. there. :D
oh no! ***** my favaorite cover guitarist! and my favorite bass player, Skyler Acord ! :D
Dude make more videos. Love your style. I love slapping and i play in a metal band too.
Put out more of this stuff ! Your talent is great! I just love what I hear ! And the band is going places already but you as an individual have got some great work in your hands !
How does anyone give this a downvote? From bassist to bassist you are sick.
your facial expressions though
Man, your vibes when you play are great. I saw you guys in London the other week and it was mental. Keep up the great work man!
Okay, THIS is how it should sound on the albums, because there is NOT enough bass on those recordings
Seriously, for the longest time i wasn't even sure Issues had a bass player
**Sounds AMAZING btw, keep it funky!
love that you're repping the locals like caught alive and joes studio!!!
Damn, there's some tough rhythms here! Love it!
If you have good headphones you can definitely hear the bass in there. Sounds amazing! Keep it up dude!
If I ever get the chance to see you guys live and you'd play Hooligans, I'd totally do that with the light
So good man. Love the little slaps and pop you added in between the intro and the verse!
Oh shit! I had no idea the intro riff was slapped. Sick mayne!! \m/ Also, pumped to find your youtube channel =)
He slaps in every song. This dude doesn't use a pick ever.. At least not that I've seen. He's dope af!
The part with the lighter had me cracking up lol. Love this!

Hes having so much damn fun :)
I love how you mouthed "wiener" at the pause at like 2:14 like AJ and Josh said they do at shows on your guys' Flippen Real World Has Issues. XD
reallly enjoyed this Sky! More videos would be sweg AF
That is absolutely awsome :D
Anyone know how I can properly open the tab on a Mac? When I download, it says I don't have the proper application to open the tab.
The file extension for the tab is .gpx and I downloaded a program to open that file type and it says that it isn't a gpx file! Anyone have any recommendations on what program to use to open it?
this is great man!
Skyler! I heard that you went to college in Seattle for a couple years!l I was wondering what college you went to if you don't mind me asking! I go to the University of Washington is why I'm curious.
That was great XD This song is really fun to listen to :D
I shouldn't have searched for this.. now I'm more insecure about my bass playing lol great job man
Damn dude, just found out about your UA-cam channel. Sick stuff 👌
I just found out about the group and Skyler. Killer band and Skyler is no joke!!!
Woah!!!nice your amazing!!!
The lighter had me cracking up!
I'm a drummer and you make me want to play bass lol
Easily my favorite bassist
one day you guys have to say fuck vocals and make one really bas filled chuggy/funky song, you definitely have the skills for it
hey sky.. asking.. can i play this using pick? anyway madskills!
What are you using for your amp setup? Im just getting into bass and need a sound like that
good job bro

Where can I purchase a FGN bass like the one you used in this? I don't see a place to order one on their website.
that shirt is so trippy
where is the tab ?
its a darn shame you cant hear this better on the recordings
Anyone got full correct tabs for this?
What do you mean? The tabs are in the description of the video for the bass part. Skyler put them there himself.
Bruh, I can't wait to see you in sac....
