Fingerplaying guy here! Just wanna say that I'm immensely honoured to be featured in your video Dean 🙌🏼 The Lucid Collective changed the way I saw Death metal forever and you've been such an inspiration, whether it's guitar playing or all the other content you release on your channel. I've drifted away from playing music for a while cuz my musical path hasn't been exactly fruitful...but your video and all the appreciative comments really made my day. Stay tech man (and stay home, there's a virus out there). That's my 30s window of publicity aight k thx bye
james jones oh I definitely didn't mean to deprive! Music just fell to a lower priority in life and work has brought me to a new country so I don't have my guitars with me right now. When I have the time I wouldn't definitely try and kick myself back into shape.
Imagine admiring a band so much you upload a cover of one of their songs and Sean Evans creates a video showcasing it. I can't think of a more awesome experience for these guys. I've never seen a band member this active on TH-cam and interacting with his fans. It's a pretty awesome experience, even for only a listener. Thank you Dean :)
You have just that kind of low key personality that I admire. Not tooting your own trumpet too hard despite being crazy talented, goes a long way. You seem like a genuinely nice guy.
Dean: "...Toby's solo..." Dean: **hard skip** Edit: I want to use this comment to suggest something to Dean! Considering we're gonna be inside for a while, I wanted to start writing new material. That gave me an idea for your channel, Dean. Weekly Riffs! How it works: us, the viewers offer three parts to a suggested set of constraints to build a riff around and challenge you to write based on those constraints. Example: Key of F#, Dorian Mode, and you have to use a tremolo effect. This could really help the musicians that see you and your writing process and could help you gain ideas and improve your already expert-level musicianship.
Its refreshing to hear such an exceptional musician from a band as technical as Archspire be so candid about making mistakes. Thanks for keeping it human! Cheers Dean!
me too, blew me away with his necrophagist and nile covers so i decided to watch them all, i've heard bits of archspire before but i started listening to them because of this guy
Dean.....I’ve been watching this and other play throughs for about an hour now and my jaw is still on the floor. Your technique is insane! I’m a huge fan now!
My old guitar teacher tried getting me to pick like the second dude. Said it created the best palm muting and was easier on your wrist and forearm as it was more straight. Also that looks like an 8 string Jackson Dinky of sorts to me
😂😂😂.... "This could be cool, I notice he's playing on a couch with tons of pillows." 26:10 Dean looses thoughts of pillows and stares in disbelief...26:20 further disbelief commences...26:45 reality shatters and envious hilarity consumes the soul... LOL, Love your explanations, views & breakdowns! Oh and I suppose archspire is ok to, for a simple riff band!! 😋 🤘 💛
Hi dean🤘🏻 I discovered your songs about 1 month ago. This is pretty good time for someone who has been listening metal music for 9 months. I have to say that your songs are so unusual so cant find right words. When I listen your songs I was be like wtf is that shit!?! But at same time I became addicted so you guys are amazing
Just done watching the video and I checked your channel. Wow what a gem, this type of content is gold. Pure guitar treasure. I promise, when Im earning already I will avail your guitar lesson. You are my master now.
TH-cam sent me here for some reason and now I've been binging your videos and listening to archspire while I play WoW. Keep it up, you and Claire are great and deserve way more attention on youtube
The faces of Dean during the last video: oh hes not using a pick! (happy face) OH, WHAT, HES NOT USING A PICK?!?!?!?! (the sheer horror of the monstruosity of this guy technique)
Wow im so happy to be here. I have no idea who you are and who archspire was, but now im a fan just like that. This kind of metal is what ive been looking for. Thank you for the music my friend. 04/13/2020 the date I became a fan.
Dean I grew up in a small town and there was a “rival” band that had a great guitarist that would do a similar style ...with out a pick. His band would go off to Metalblade and idk just thought I would share that. The band is called Native Construct
Just retired it to AIMP a month ago. Gotta go with something that gets updated, and doesn't crash when I try to load large libraries. RIP: The Llama's Ass.
Dean: you guys are flawless live. Added to my must see list. Totally insane and just wish the set was longer. Saw you last with Beyond Creation and Inferi. Crazy tour.
I enjoy your commentary. It gives me some perspective when the person who wrote the guitar parts says stuff like "this took me forever to get clean", "this part is super hard", et cetera.
This is awesome, I wish this would turn into a pod cast. And just bring on guitarist to talk about awesome covers of their songs and their writing experience of said particular song
Was listening to some Archspire the other day. I used to be in a death metal and black metal band. After studying classical guitar I started writing some sick death/black metal riffs which used that same fingerpicking style. Sadly I haven't played in a while and been sitting on thousands of old riffs I wrote that will never be heard.
I also did that. Mostly because my picks always got lost into the void. Sometimes they pop back but when not I just use my finger. Only the max speed I can play like that is painters style.
Follower of 560000560000 for almost 10 years . This guy is crazy good. Odd thing that he don't get any views and he don't care. Time after time he is coming back with some mind blowing stuff.
Wow saw you guys play in Oakland it was crazy helped me get into music and metal in general. I didn't know you were a guitarist for archspire until this video and now I feel stupid but you guys are are awesome keep up the work music's great
560000560000 is a such an underrated player. It's so strange to me how he doesn't have a lot of followers. Him and Richard Mauricio have the best metal covers on TH-cam
Interesting picking style, pretty damn unique! I am also playing various metal without a pick, I usually fingerstyle shred tho, which is easier then fingerstyle trem, you can see that on my channel in videos such as '(another) Improvisation over Siege Engine', 'Somewhat bigger note' and many other
fingerpicking is extremely extremely fast, I was forced into it at one point essentially as I only had a nylon guitar, so I had to learn how to do it, the speed is absolutely unparallelled but man it's rough w chords and arpeggios and such.
560000560000 has some of the best guitar playing on youtube and hes covered tons of difficult songs. been subbed to him for years. glad to see him getting some exposure through your channel
Also the guy in last video is using a Fred Kelly finger tip pick , I just tried them out and there pretty cool , for finger style and picking combinations., he’s killing it either way
Pangaea are great and weirdly introduced me to the whole world of progressive metal/djent by covering Prayer Position by Periphery. Have some pretty sick material of their own too
If you see this comment and don't hit LIKE, a ghostly shrimp will haunt you forever oh shit there he is 🦐
Please no ghostly shrimp!!!
Can I like AND have shrimp?
If you search for Sitar picks on google images, he might have used that is picks. Most people around the south Asia is familiar with the instrument.
lol i like shrimps 😋
Dean Lamb liked because I’m allergic to shrimp and I can’t afford to encounter one

You play guitar like that and then decide to call what you've done "unfruitful "... Mind blown.
Don’t be an asshole and deprive people of this. If you make more content people will watch. And the ladies will be knocking you door down!
Just subbed your channel, check it out guys. Lot of great covers, Neecrophagist one was cool too, Only Ash Remains is what got me into them
james jones oh I definitely didn't mean to deprive! Music just fell to a lower priority in life and work has brought me to a new country so I don't have my guitars with me right now. When I have the time I wouldn't definitely try and kick myself back into shape.
560000 is one of the best guitarists on TH-cam. His Deicide solo cover is perfect
And his origin covers are sick too!
Agreed. Caught him on some necrophagist covers a while ago, blew me away
His Necrophagist covers are tight too
Yes he is a beast!!
He's extremely good
People who were planning on covering an Archspire song slamming the table rn
😂
If this video gets popular, Dean will probably do a Part 2.
Imagine admiring a band so much you upload a cover of one of their songs and Sean Evans creates a video showcasing it. I can't think of a more awesome experience for these guys. I've never seen a band member this active on TH-cam and interacting with his fans. It's a pretty awesome experience, even for only a listener. Thank you Dean :)
🙏 thx for the Sean Evans comparison ♥️
@@DeanLamb You bring out the spicy comments :)
Never heard of Archspire, but holy shit, you have a new fan.
🙏
@@DeanLamb same here dude, I've been looking for some new stuff to listen to and I gotta admit, this stuff is dope!
Dude sameeeeeee, these guys kick so much ass
I love the way Dean skips Tobi's solos lol
Lol!
maybe cuz he's interested how they gonna play his parts more than tobi's?

You have just that kind of low key personality that I admire. Not tooting your own trumpet too hard despite being crazy talented, goes a long way. You seem like a genuinely nice guy.
I've been following 560000560000 for years now and his Necrophagist covers are utterly flawless. Its awesome to see him get some recognition!
BREAKING NEWS: Dean adds third guitarist to Archspire his name 560000560000!
Lol

Dude fucking shreds Necrophagist too
hes an absolute goat been watching his video for like 5 years hope he puts out music one day

An ANGEL wow thank you 🙏
@@DeanLamb haha your voice is very soothing for someone that plays such fiendish riffs 🤘
@@bardknight That's how it is in the Metal world.

Much respect for how much respect you show these dudes
560000560000 is how I found Archspire! Heck yeah.
Awesome!
Lol me too.
I found them playing clone hero xD now they are one of my favorite bands

Same
Imagine playing all that with a pick..... But without a guitar. That would be amazing.
Yea that'd be the TRUE test
Queso Blanco lol
Everyone knows air guitar is the hardest to play 😂
@@1LeggedHorse I'm not talking about air guitar. I'm talking about playing a guitar, but with only a pick and no guitar.
Didn't realize this was 27 minutes till about 18 minutes in. Good job my dude, I'm a new archspire fan now.
👌🙏
Dean.....I’ve been watching this and other play throughs for about an hour now and my jaw is still on the floor. Your technique is insane! I’m a huge fan now!
Next time on dean attempts to learn... dean attempts to play his own song without a pick!
Nothx
I vote yes he should play his music without a pick. Let's all start a voting pole on Dean Plays His Without Pick. This will be wait for it Legendary!
Learn a part of your song without a pick Dean come on you can do it!!!!
@@Guitarfailtastic2857 i agree with you man. Dean you can do it.
I nearly died when I saw the last guy doing perfect pinch harmonics... with no pick
Yeah he's got some kind of finger pick but still 🤯
Richard is a beast! So glad he made it on here
Yeah all these dudes killed it
On the next episode Dean attempts to learn Archspire songs without pick!
Nooooo
Yeah man #fingerpickchallenge
every 30 seconds:
Dean: "man that riff is hard"
Close your eyes it sounds like an NPR radio show but metal.
🙏
My old guitar teacher tried getting me to pick like the second dude. Said it created the best palm muting and was easier on your wrist and forearm as it was more straight.
Also that looks like an 8 string Jackson Dinky of sorts to me
I admire that you appreciate the ways people attempted to emulate you. Sounds like you're an excellent teacher.
Hey thanks!

Literally starts the video with one if the most A1 guitarist.
Yeah, maybe not the best idea

and then this guy will edit him out of 99.99% of it
Awesome video man. Cant wait too see you guys when you can get back out touring
Hopefully soon

“metalheads are wild and aggressive!”

Amazing playing on here. I’m a fan now.

What about an ASMR video with Archspire lyrics? 😂
had archspire in the club where i'm sound engineer, seriously impressive show!
Thanks bud!
I'd love to watch more videos like this. Great job Dean!
I also did that. Mostly because my picks always got lost into the void. Sometimes they pop back but when not I just use my finger. Only the max speed I can play like that is painters style.
60% of the video: Dean says oh boy that riff is hard
I actually found Richard Mauricio trying to find a love play of this, glad to see him featured in this video, he’s a great guitar player.

dude, I JUST recently gave up Winamp after years of resisting. I loved it. It was simple, low resources etc.
