I think you naturally start to developing this kind of writing and guitar playing after you had listened for modern metal bands (periphery, erra, monuments, architects) and had played the guitar CONSTANTLY for some time. It happened to me
I agree, berried alive and vitalism are also a huge influence for me
Just to add a little more to what you’re saying, it’s probably even more about playing along to these songs too.
I started playing guitar in the earlier days of metalcore, so I always played killswitch, old parkway, acacia strain, as I lay dying, and that’s basically what my playing sounds like lol.
It’s tough for me to learn all these more modern techniques aside from just super low djenting.
@@thescottallen agreed… I listened to Nu Metal when I was younger before getting into playing guitar. But when I got into guitar I was mainly into RHCP, John Mayer, and Jimi Hendrix… so a lot of my formative playing experiences were mostly funk rock, psychedelic rock, and pop inspired. Now that I am older and a modern metal head it was a transition for me to figure out how things work (I was exclusively playing in E standard in either crunch or clean, so the idea of extended range guitars and low tunings were foreign to me, but my love for Nu Metal helped me get into metalcore djent prog and deathcore… the more I listened the more the themes made sense, and the more I tried to replicate the sound the more I got better at it… learning songs to a metronome/using guitar pro tab helps immensely in getting things down)
Heart of a Coward opened up this gate for me ;)
I wish I never stopped playing guitar for 6+ years. Picked it back up again a year ago (I'm 28 now) and I have lost everything I learned. I got the basics down but now that I work a shit ton, I don't practice often. Or when I'm not at work I'm playing videogames or watching tv lol. Should I just stick with learning scales over and over to improve after this big gap or should I just try and learn songs again?
I used to learn by tabs but newer bands never have tabs online anymore 😔
So nice to see you 3D printed the nolly amp in the background😄
They made plugins real lol
@@KeyanHoushmandLive i giggled hard
This took me much longer to get than I care to admit. 😂
ah yes the riff styles that old people hate.
anyways nice video. the detailed explanation of every riff is on point. love it!
They hate it cuz they ain't it
@@majesticpbjcat7707 boomers i swear
I'm old and I love them.
Was helpful. See alot of repeat notes due to octaves, and the string skipping style gives it that sound.
thanks for doing this video! ive been hunting down that dhent tone for years, where you mute the low strings and play the top strings. for years ive thought it was just more gain or something. i loveit. it sounds digital. Boundaries does it. its a cool Myspace-core technique.
i come from a pop hardcore, easycore background where its all strqight palm-muted chugs.
so having THAT sound explained to me is increduble. thank you so much. subbed and bell'd 🔔
Now I get why Architects always tune Drop F# in their way! Absolutely insightful and educational video!
This works in any drop tuning including drop D and drop C.
Dude, I love how you explain things! It is so helpful to hear what is your approach not just like: here are the notes - figure it out. Man, thanks! You got yourself a new subscriber!
A riff so good it makes the video glitch because TH-cam can't handle the awesomeness
"that was just nonsense..." that was pretty cool actually 😄
Sub’d!!! This is exactly what I needed to hear/see to get my mind/ears/hands where I’ve been aiming on my own with limited progress. I love this riff and love how you explained the breakdown of tabs. I totally agree that tabs are a roadmap beyond just replication. Thank you for the kick in the pants and inspiration. Going to find your material on my platform to hear the whole song and beyond!!! 🔥
Add (any) Hans Zimmer track to it and you get the entire catalog of the Architects!! Awesome video btw mate!!
It personally gives me more old school Northlane vibes than Architects.
This helped me a ton Keyan thank you! I got a Jackson guitar and this baby is helping me make this djent deathcore album :)
Thank you for this 🙏 much love from a 20 year old in Sydney trying to get as good as you
Such a nice genuine guy with so much talent love watching ur stuff
Love your style man. It’s so refreshing to hear new riffs compared to the same old beat to death chug only riffs. 🤘
I'd love for John Browne to do this with some of his riffs.
Love these breakdown style videos. Amazing content as always Keyan!
This is exactly the video I needed… wow
TBH This riff lives in my head right now🖤😍
Nice Keyan. Looking forward to your release brother!
Looking forward to you hearing it!
This is awesome, you hit the nail on the head with tabs; if you have tendency towards STEM, you see numeric patterns. Sorry, may sound odd
That beefy right hand technique tying it all together 🤘🤘
speaking of 6 strings, i have a guitar in drop a# then pitch shifted it to drop f to learn the riff
Did you or will you make a video explaining the EQ to get that amazing metalcore distortion?
Thanks so much for this Keyan! I have really wanted to learn how to play this style but not good enough to figure it out by ear. This has helped a lot and I can actually somewhat play it haha. Gotta keep up the practice.
Your riffing is out of this world dude
Black is an absolute banger.
dude you're insane love your content
I'm sure Gradient will by full of GREAT DJENT. WAAAAAAAHHH!!
I'd love it if you could show us your technique for fast alternate picked palm mute chugs on one string - 16th note bits and the like. I struggle to figure that out!
Could you do a mix walkthrough for the song? I always love your mixes!
babe wake up! keyan posted!!
Just got the Archetype Tim Henson, your presets are great bro!
Sounds better when played slow ! Meshuggah groove vibe 👍🤘🤘
I looked forward this video long time😊
Thanks! Very insightful and your song is awesome, listening to it now! \m/
This is what i need
What are the pickups in that? Great video man
Finn mckenty montage feature in his new "nu metal" punk rock mba video... @15:23
I started to have sreams of plying classical guitar, instantly bought it. Now in the process of learning and joy. Recently I started having dreams of playing melodic metal on electric guitar... What should I do? This seems very serious 😂
Is that guitar actually tuned to F or pitch shifted?
Great content man, you earned a sub for sure.

As a total noob to playing guitar and writing modern metal, I’d love to know how you get your sound from start to finish.
Yar on the new case,,, new John brown
hi, is there any chance to make a video about how to play modern style palm muting and dead notes? I tied this tab but somehow what I played always like 90s metal🤣
good stuff, should throw together a small course
0:02 I see what you did there lol
Also, the video was very informative and helpful 👍
Phrygian, not Harmonic Minor
is it Phrygian major since its the natural third? I looked at it and thought F Locrian, but I hit my head a bunch when I was a kid so idk.
Hey Keyan what gauge strings you got on that guitar? 70s?
Maybe a silly question. But, where can a person find the fingering for the type of chords you always play on the 7 string doing these type of riffs?
What lens do you use for your camera
I’m curious as I’m getting back into playing after some years. If you were to pick/recommend only one amp sim for your style of playing, what would you recommend?
Others feels free to chime in too, I’m curious with soo many options. Iv used free ones, I’d just like to hear what “go to amp sim” people would stick to if that was their only option.
Archetype petrucci by Neural DSP
hey Keyan, out of curiosity, do you write your songs first in Guitar Pro, or just jam away in your DAW?
Jam away in the DAW!
I do the guitar pro thing. It starts out as a jam but then goes into GP. I am not good at counting rhythm, so writing drums is easier in GP.
I just restringed my ET7 today for the first time, Went with a 58 and went Drop G, I also go the pretrucci plug in, do you think there is a better plug in suited for this guitar? I use ezmix guitar gods 1 2 and 3 and neural pretrucci, didn't know if the other neural was more adequate ?
Petrucci should be amazing! I have Gojira, and that has an awesome mix of super heavy sounds as well as atmospheric effects laden type stuff
I have Neural Abasi. It sounds great for this style IMO.
@@jfo3000 Well I got the gojira on trial and its pretty damn good, I'm gonna trial every single one of them including the abasi, I had all the abasi ezmix stuff but it wasn't all that
Keyan! Surely recommend me a couple cheap ish djent guitars for lower than drop A I can put better pickups in? Greetings from Perth 😂🔥
th-cam.com/video/U4Y-z1k3b1A/w-d-xo.html He's already reviewed this $250 Ibanez!
What price range bro?
Check out: schecter, agile, subzero, Harley Benton and even esp. Also note that you can still tune a 25.5 lower than A, you’ll just need thicker strings. The only difference between scale lengths is tension and intonation, if you use thinner strings because of the added tension that is.
Let's go 🔥🔥🔥
Could you share a link of the tone you used on the NDSP Nolly, i can't ever make it sound like this
it more depends on your sound from guitar itself(scale lenght, action, string gauge), your playstyle and how clear your signal is, cheap interface wont make your guitar signal so bright and front sounding in the mix, its in the DI not in the plugin, amp or modeller), also good DI Box could make your sound even more cleaner or enhanced
True Djent!
I can kind of write modern metal riffs like this, but I find it really hard trying to decipher what time signature they are in so that I can write drums for. Like I have all these riffs in my head all written for years but really struggling to apply them in a recording scenario. Does anyone have any ideas that can help? Much appreciated!
There's a good chance your stuff is in 4 - probably a good place to start is just write some drums in 4/4 with the snare on the 3 (it sounds nice to put a kick an eighth note before the snare). Then you can fill in additional kicks when the riff calls for added emphasis (e.g., a little 16 note chuggy bit). If your stuff isn't in 4, you're just going to want to count it and see what time sig it's in. For 5/4 or 5/8, I like snare on the 3, and for 7/4 or 7/8, snare on the 5 sounds great.
Do you have a picture of the riff rather than showing it on screen for 5 seconds, would make it a lot easier to learn if that's ok :)
Do anyone knows why people are using 7 string guitar for these type metal? And is it a must have to play modern metal?
For the drop tuning. And heavier tone.
You can use any drop tuning and any 6 string guitar... but its better to at least pitch shift the guitar to get lower tunings
*plays totally cool runs* "that was just nonsense"
Amazing, brutal tone
... so tasty. Remind me your string gauge, is it 11's??
Im also curious about the string gauge
@@ftwinsidia yes you're right, thank you!!
Hey may i ask?
If im using 4i4 scarlett do i need to use di box?
Not necessarily, as long as you use the instrument level input. Some people do use one for a cleaner signal, especially if they have high output pickups.
Remember the video where you told that perfect guitars spoil you for the rest of your life in some way? In my experience it´s kind of the same with the modern metal approach. Most of the rather classic song structures just start to feel boring and predictable somehow. (And my bandmates often blame me for that)
The EP should be named Gradjent lmao🔥
That shirt tho
🔥🔥🔥
Shit hot.
Awesome content as usual! I have to critique just one thing: the lowest string sounds so mushy, atonal and shrill, it's really unpleasant for my ear... did you use too much gain?
Your shirt is wrong. Needs a j where the i is.
"Do you wanna play like this?"
*O P E N S T R I NG widdley bit O P E N S T R I N G widdley bit O P E N S T R I N G SQUEALLY BOI O P E N S T R I N G*
to many fuzz on my taste
the tone in the intro was a bit too aggressive even for my taste
Goddamn does modern metal sound like absolute dogshit. The children who think this sounds good also listen to modern rap and also think they are victims.
Keyan : do you want to play guitar like this ? Me : uh...no ?(peace out)
Great video though
Sorry to say that: horrible digital sound…
sounds great, modern metal sounds a lit bit digital, and it's fine
The fact the riffs suck, that you have to watch your hands and that you suck in general and if makes me laugh
Where’s your content?
Okay boomer
how does watching your hands while you play make you suck at guitar?
Metal is dead. no musicality whatsoever
