It totally makes sense now that I see you're the old guy from Reflections. I remember seeing the old playthrough videos and just thinking you're a machine and there was no other explanation as to how you so cleanly played these riffs. You know that transdimensional goat meme? That's exactly what happened when I heard this and Crusty. Stellar work my man. The tones you've set up for this guitar too are just phenomenal
I fucking love this song, it gives me chill vibes and I know its not a relaxing tune but I really like the feel of those weird riffs mixed with that cool ambient stuff. Keep it up bro!
The way he makes his complex solos on every song look utterly effortless, is truly mesmerizing. Literally chills every time. I loved the music before seeing these videos. Now after seeing the videos, I have a whole new level of respect for what he does.
I just cant believe how much I fall more in love with your music by the day... It gives me the hope to conquer everything Ive given up on .. Thank you !!! \M/
Dude I discovered you two yesterday. Omfg your shit is so dope. The evolution of metal has begun. Keep that shit COMING. You're my new favorite artist of 2018. And you are just as dope as Rings of Saturn all by yourself. 🤘
Dude, bought your album last night and I can't stop listening to it! This song, Heartless and Why Are You Still Alive are definitely my top three off this beast (although I love them all haha). Congrats on a great release! :)
LOL! this whole time hearing this song i thought the solo at 5 min was done with an effects pedal. nope, turns out mans just used his foot to whammy. ok i can die now knowing i've heard one of the best guitar players alive
at 4:00 that's the best fucking part i mean the whole song is AMAZING but that part gives me goosebumps seriously brother FUCKING amazing sorry for the language just speaking from the heart and the part with your foot and whammy bar it's awesomeness at its finest keep it up C.C. you're a blessing to us all
Thanks bro. That means a lot to me. I'll keep doing my best. Please share my music with a friend or two if you can. The support allows me to be able to keep doing this.
Thank you for your response it's people like you meaning musicians that actually take the time to respond and that's what gets you loyal fans or truly dedicated fans your music is amazing and first time i heard this brought tears to me honestly brother i love this shit and it's awesome.... Keep it up and email me sometime i like to hear some stuff you're working on mybollsareonfire@gmail.com send me anything i love hearing your stuff brother it's awesome!!! Thanks again for your response... Keep responding to fans like this and you'll keep getting more and more loyal fans like i am now..... Thank you brother for your response... Send me samples i love to hear work in progress it be awesome...
Dude this is some epic shit the only problem is I need more and no one plays like you, keep on creating its amazing your an inspiration for that next level shit
Do you track the synth with guitar multiple times then convert to midi, because there's this authentic chorus-ey effect with the synths that makes it sound so fucking sweet
I don't understand the foot bounce segment at 4:30. I see that you turned the Whammy bar so that it fit into one of those slots.. Is it bending the note slightly every time you bounce, or doing one of those 'gargle' type effects (not sure what they're actually called)? Either way, pretty impressive, there's just so much going on, I can't separate what the guitar is doing from everything else.
What I'm doing is called a flutter. Its like really fast vibrato caused by hitting the tremolo arm. Thank you for listening man. Check out my album if you have a chance. :)
okay for real. at 4:06 how do you add that harmonic sound to notes? I can do pinch harmonics, divebombs, harmonic arpeggios no problem. I have been playing since I was like 12 and have been trying to figure out what you and just about anyone else who pulls these in their solos does to get this sound and I have no clue. somehow help. is it an affect or is there a certain way you touch the string with your palm, what is it
Hey man, love your work! Might I ask how you developed your shredding/sweep picking technique/skills? I'm standing still right now, in terms of that. I am currently able to play Canon Rock's sweep picking and solo parts (Barely). But I can't seem to develop any further.
without a doubt influenced by lucas mann but I prefer your structure and composition and that solo was freaking epic; beautiful guitars to. good work dude.
I love how your solos have meaningful structure and are not just random notes playing fast.
Stg..most of charles' solos bring tears to my eyes..such beauty
@@chrisjacobs2466 exactly. He really is one of the best musicians i've seen, the creativity in his solos and songs is just mind blowing
His use of Tone and harmony make it feel like my heart is being ripped out of my chest. Addicted
@@uncomfycritter2530 and let's not forget his use with the kill switch! I love that thing when he uses it!
this dude is living in 3017
Who’s still listening in 3019?
Im listening in 3020 yay
carter smith unfortunately no one will be alive in that year due to this year
tbh who listening to this in 1479
still listening in 3021
Seriously some of the most interesting compositions around...I felt like I was in the most fucked up carnival ever haha good stuff as always!
HAHAHAHA 🤘🏼😂🤘🏼💯💯
Haha thank you!!
Completely agree, I was like, "this is one dark and evil carnival..." haha
I don’t understand how ANYBODY can unlike this or his other songs. Charles is incredible.
Thanks!
When he stood the guitar up and started doing Steve Vai shit with his feet... I hit the subscribe button immediately.
I absolutely thought this was an exaggeration until I saw it
You weren't kidding
this is so intense like being lost in another world trying to find your way back only to realize you never left in the first place
This sounds like a good salvia trip
It's time for a 'love' button on TH-cam
I could listen to this over and over and over. As a matter of fact, I have.
Cheers

Just actually came across this today. (Yeah I’m three years late). It sounds amazing, nice job on the guitar!
Me too but better late than never :D
the solo reminds me of Senseless Massacre by Rings Of Saturn, loved it
Great fucking band m8
I fucking love this song, it gives me chill vibes and I know its not a relaxing tune but I really like the feel of those weird riffs mixed with that cool ambient stuff. Keep it up bro!

Ive listened to the vocal versions so much that your lyrics auto fill in my head lol
I just wanted to throw out there, "Amazing work!" I can listen to this album over and over, never gets old. Superb writing sir
He unlocked the forbidden technique
I just love this Song ... Genius... 🤯
i just can't wrap my head around how someone can be this fucking talented on guitar AND only have less than 30 thousand subscribers on YT
I just cant believe how much I fall more in love with your music by the day... It gives me the hope to conquer everything Ive given up on .. Thank you !!! \M/
I remember when this video dropped it blew my mind
pretty unique sounding. good one.
How in the heck can anyone possibly give this a thumbs down?! Must be an idiot. This is plain and simply freakin awesome!!!
Dude so sick! I've listened to this nonstop since it was uploaded. You always impress, fantastic job man
4:04 wow!
Been trying to get all my friends into you, Hump has been my favorite song for a few years, i cant find anything i love more than this song lol
Thank you! Word of mouth helps us out a lot
omfg that flutter technique is so ingenious it make me eargasm
Probably one of my favorite solos in this song!
so from what i understand during the solo he is muteing with his left hand tapping with his right and doing slight whammys with his foot?
Dude I discovered you two yesterday. Omfg your shit is so dope. The evolution of metal has begun. Keep that shit COMING. You're my new favorite artist of 2018. And you are just as dope as Rings of Saturn all by yourself. 🤘
Can't wait for the collab with RoS . The last time I was this excited for music was way back when Necrophagist was dropping bombs on us.
This guy is absolutely amazing I wanna learn how to do that I might just get a guitar just to learn how to do that
man, the amount of work you'll have to put in to get here... I mean, most players never get here even after playing for 30 years
Dude, bought your album last night and I can't stop listening to it! This song, Heartless and Why Are You Still Alive are definitely my top three off this beast (although I love them all haha). Congrats on a great release! :)
I would absolutely LOVE to hear you remake but with the vocals involved!
In my top 3 songs I'll throw on repeat. Sick af.
this song is so addictive. keep doing what you're doing man
First time im hearing just the instrumental, I keep anticipating the vocals haha
OMG this amazing guitar sound just reached Poland :D
I binge listened to all of your music and it's just so fresh. freaking amazing!!! I've been humming that solo all week lmao
Haha I'm glad you dig it. Hopefully the humming got it stuck in your friend's heads as well. :P
+Charles Caswell hell yeah man, they're loving it. keep it up!!!

Génial.

Great composition, greetz from Germany!

my favorite track off the new album by far.
Dude. Holy shit...you are insanely talented with the mad guitar skills. Like, holy fuck. I honestly don't think I've ever heard guitar skills that good. Like...damn, son.
I would love to learn this song haha. Especially the solo
Still one of my top favs of yours!!!!❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
insane. you are absolutely talented Charles. please don't ever give up on music.
Cricket Metal
If there is ever a Veggie Tales reboot, Charles should be the music director.
Damn, love the creativity on this one Charles! Definitely going to buy Soul Sucker when I get some more moniez my way!
This reminds me so much of Rings of Saturn. This is a great song btw good job man!
LOL! this whole time hearing this song i thought the solo at 5 min was done with an effects pedal. nope, turns out mans just used his foot to whammy. ok i can die now knowing i've heard one of the best guitar players alive

i love this song
This is really sick man! ! :D
Thanks!
Can someone explain the button in the beginning and how it does that? Been playing guitar 15 years and never seen that and it's insane. I want it
its a killswitch, he makes the sounds using harmonics and the killswitch button. he even has a video on how he install it in his guitar.
is this song in standard tuning with a low B?
4:27 is so damn amazing.
Drum plug in? And also is there a lowered pitch on the drums?
Your album Soul Sucker, is there pitch changes done to the percussion as well
Damn that's a wild color on that shredder kinda like a green apple jolly rancher maby I'm just hungry that's what a wake n bake will do to ya
Are you doing harmonics each time you come up on the frets in the first 30 seconds?
Yes :)
what type of killswitch is installed on that guitar ive never seen it before
Amazing

Ah, that's what I thought. Thanks for the reply man. I just discovered your videos today. Really digging it so far!
Thanks!

CJ Fripp it’s the sustainacs giving it infinite ring not to sure tho
Does anyone know if Charles used pedals for this or a software like bias fx to get this effects?
POD HD500X by line 6. He can get an amazing tone with it
Hey man, love your work! Might I ask how you developed your shredding/sweep picking technique/skills? I'm standing still right now, in terms of that. I am currently able to play Canon Rock's sweep picking and solo parts (Barely). But I can't seem to develop any further.
Yo great song man!!!! What tuning are you using
The foot solo seems like you have to do it without shoes on 🤔
damn this badass!!!
Unbelievable.
open notes are cool as shit
What degree do you harmonize your guitars at? Sounds evil
fuck yessss yesssssssss
What pickups are you using to record this?
he's using the factory stock Legator pickups
Do you know if Legator makes them themselves, or gets them from a company?
Fuck
YES
Im just getting into your tunes man! I gotta say i cant put them down! fucking killer
Feel like this is made for stoners ae, love it so fucking sick 🤘🤘💯
Fucking sick man!
Who’s listening in 2024
you're fucking amazing.
I'm tryna see you Thall
what tuning
??
Q
section from 4:51 sounds like Incongruous
Great track! Anyway, you should've called it "Humpin' dat tremolo with foot", not just "Hump"
Kreygasm
i just spent three hours looking for this because i forgot the name of the band.
without a doubt influenced by lucas mann but I prefer your structure and composition and that solo was freaking epic; beautiful guitars to. good work dude.
