Thanks man. I pretty much have shred everyday for a while since I was 13. Glad it paid off. I can only hope you guys have a good time and tell a few people. Thanks for your kind words Crash!
you have no idea how much this helped not play that particular solo but soloing in general somehow after learning the 1st few parts it just clicked took me 15 years lol
Hey! I've been watching these for a while now and I've learned solos I never bothered with 'cause I didn't know I could play them. Very nice work :) Love the way you break them down piece by piece. Gives you Way more insight into what you're playing. Thanks a lot! Big help! Could you maybe do Trivium's Shattering the Skies Above?
i loved learning this, couldn't stop laughing, trying to learn that sweep and paused at 11:00, and your just watching me play, got me under pressure lol
hey chris, very cool video, helped a lot :) you are an awesome player and your explanations are good to understand, even me as a german can understand everything :D can you pls make a video in that you just improvise a solo over a backing track or something like this? i would love to see you playing a whole solo ;) greetings from germany, emanuel
i know you get the no pick thing a fair bit but how do you pick exactly are you using the nail on your middle finger or thumb ? .. also wicked job with this solo man can tell this one will take some time to get
For some reason when I try to do the first part of the solo with the d major arpeggio I buzz the string moving my index finger from the 14th fret of the 1st string and to the 3rd string. Maybe I just need to play it slow until I stop making sound moving the index to the 3rd string?
Besides, how often are teenagers really that good? I would say they have prodigious talent, not many musicians who have been in the scene for awhile are as proficient as they are
The way Corey starts that solo is fuckin insane. I was trying to do it by ear I was in the right spot but I was trying to run strait up in sweep pattern like 18 15 6th string 16 second 15 third 17 4th etc etc. It wasnt sounding right obviously then I watch this. How the fuck is he moving that run so fast!!! A sweep was the only thing that made sense to me to get it that fast. I'm going to full legato that shit after I play it 750 times slow until i hit the speed... I'm just disgusted
People trip at the nail thing lol grow ur nails out an only use them for a year or 2 an see what’s easier a pick or fingernails the easiest of the 2 is nails by far.
It is amazing what this man does without a guitar pick.
Thanks man. I pretty much have shred everyday for a while since I was 13. Glad it paid off. I can only hope you guys have a good time and tell a few people. Thanks for your kind words Crash!
I love this solo....thanks for the lesson as always. Most of the time I come here just to watch you shred some solos...

Damn I love Trivium. U have this solo amazingly accurate btw. Thanx
I can't believe the guys in Trivium were teenagers when they wrote this album
NO PICK! I developed this habit as a silly child.
matt heafy wrote their entire first album ember to inferno at 17
8:30 is Matt's lol this comment is for me so I don't have to search through the video
I agree with you. This is the best guy out there. Far superior to professional dvds like lick library. He deserves more subscribers/views.
dude. thanx to your vids i learn my first solo. you keep rocking!!!!
I forgot to mention at the start of the video that it's 'Laura Dern's' A Gunshot To The Head Of Trepidation.

Awesome song!!! One of my favorites and played perfectly. Could you do a lesson for "Down From The Sky"? Another one of my favorite trivium songs.
Thanks alot for this solo, couldnt find a decent lesson, and 3years into playing guitar it's quite hard to figure out
Thanks dude.
Perfect, Trivium it´s my favorite band and I like it !
It's just the middle finger nail filed a certain way then my thumb just holds and supports if that makes sense.
Yes! Someone else who doesn't use a pick! - I feel like I am at an advantage now (btw great video!!)
thank you for my fingers falling of. but seriously though that was a great lesson even though my fingers h e pretty much died
HOW DO YOU ONLY HAVE NOT EVEN 1000 SUBS!!!

i know you get the no pick thing a fair bit but how do you pick exactly are you using the nail on your middle finger or thumb ? .. also wicked job with this solo man can tell this one will take some time to get
