Thank you all so much for all the love towards this record over the last couple of years. Truly means the world! If you'd like to support my music, please visit nickjohnstonmusic.com/ More music to come soon guys. Thanks!!
I like the somewhat straightforward but meanful compositions with the storytelling and to the point sounds and arrangements combined with the effortless playing with feeling. 10/10. My all time top 10 albums.
I'm never shocked to find you here, but I really admire that you take the time to watch, and interact with, so much content on TH-cam. *the whole room claps* and *all the ladies scream "Rudy Ayoub is pretty cool"*
I keep coming back to these videos for no other reason than Nick has such style in how he plays in a way that almost no one else matches, and makes it look so entirely effortless. Still amazing.
some players make you want to give up your instruments some inspire you to pick it up more often you sir, are the second kind. masterpiece of an album!
This is EASILY the BEST guitar album i have ever heard!😲 I have been playing for over 30 years now and this is simply the best guitar based music i have heard yet! Bravo Mr Johnston! your hours of and hours of practice definitely paid off!🤘
No words! Remarkable! Incredible phrasing! The ultimate example of less is more! Every note played has meaning and makes sense. I’m blown away by this composition!!! Literally brought me to tears!
Vidéo remarquable .Musique grandiose d’humanité laissant au monde de réfléchir .Composition musicale extraordinaire .Thank à lot guitariste hors du commun .🙏🧑🎤
I still truly believe this is the greatest album that has ever been written. You could listen to it 100 times and still find details you never noticed before. Thanks for taking the time to record this.
THANK YOU..... for this music... THANK YOU.... How didn't I know this..... This is clearly a MAJOR highlight in my Music envirronement and discoveries.... You are now part of my top music.... I'm stunt
Hello, Nick! Today is my friend's birthday and I just saw the notification of this video and sent to him immediately. Because of him, I knew you and now, you upload a video in his birthday! So cool! Regardless, I love the way that you put your guitar to sound, man. We can feeling all the emotion that you put on each phrase you play on this magic instrument called electric guitar. Since my friend has been show me your songs I had been love all of them. Congratulations!
Well Nick - if I may state the bleeding obvious - coz, in this case, it can't be overstated. The reason you have received so many positive words in response to your music is because it totally deserves it! Your music is marvelously excellent! It is so much more musical, imaginative, colourful, emotionally powerful - more creative in every way than what most others have on offer. It is also totally devoid of the sickening array of 'loud, fast blues licks' that so many guitarists mindlessly trot out and employ in such a feeble attempt at creativity. Almost better than a breath of fresh air. 👏🏽∰👏🏽
Random find! Listening for the first time. Right in my comfort zone. Taking me back to some of my guitar roots and feeling like you've connected with the greats. Namaste.
makes me feel like i am floating through space checking out all the other planets as i fall asleep to it... instrumental music can sound, well, boring and generally, bad, but this is incredible, the playing, tones, arranging, writing, everything.. perfection! i don't know if you call it shred, it has neo classical and fusion runs etc but to me this too musical and classy to be called that, the blues licks are so tasty, taste, is a key word here.. this should be massive, if you have a disposable income support this artist!
I have lost count of how many times I listened to the entire record just me and my dog on the farm. I created twelve artworks listening your music, they are in a gallery in poços de caldas Brazil in 2018.
Your touch, your sound, your phrasing... Man, this album is a beauty, really. I'm in love, with your music ;) Looking forward to hearing more from you, not too soon please I'm having this on repeat repeatedly :p
Wow!!! ...Astonishing!. Soulful, touching, full of expression, great chops, shred as well, great phraseing and musichianship. But do you care to share the gear information about the gear? I know that the the diference it's usually made by the hands that are playing, but that Strat/single coil twang!? So clear and mudful in the same time... What pick-ups, amp configuration do you use? KUDOS!!!
i've listened to this album since it was released in September 2016. For some reason I always come back to it. What you've created here is truly unique. Beautiful. Thank you for mesmerizing us the past 5 years.
This is just another example in which we can confirm, music is about feelings, emotions, melodies, different nuances, fast medium and slow guitar licks, etc... great job
Wonderful music Nick... This is MY genre... I compose and play similar musical ramblings, alway with some catchy melody/riff/hook ... Love it! Very emotive, very environmental and yes... Remarkably Human.
This album sounds like a LONG jamming all over one song. It´s a good album with great melodies and exquisite playing but really FLAT. Love the idea of this complete album´s filming. Adds a lot of feeling & atmosphere for a more vivid experience.
WOW! I was going to skip this after about the first ten seconds, thought I'd give a little longer.....53 minutes and eleven seconds later I wanted to play it again. Well done Nick. This should be up there with the all time classics. Beautiful.
Only just discovered you! Believe it or not, I was looking for a new strat-like guitar, but with a flatter radius, HB in the bridge, ebony fingerboard... and your sig model came up. I ordered the guitar then thought I should probably listen to some of your music! lol. Man, I adore your melodies and chord choices.. have you ever done tv or movie scores? Your choice of melody reminds me of composer Ron Grainer (Omega Man, Dr Who, Prisoner, to name a few) with a little Bernhard Herman. Love what I'm hearing so far, and I'm only three tracks in! Just had to write my compliments :) (hope you think they are compliments!)
So... like you ROLEPLAYA64 I recently found myself in need of a Strat. As a lefty, I have limited choices, and I just didn't want to go the tried and true (and sometimes less than stellar) route of Fender, so I poked around and found this Schecter Nick Johnston model. In Atomic Coral, no less (and sometimes, rarely, in Atomic Green!). It's a mervel, and I was smitten! Alas, I've not been able to locate one for sale from a reputable shop: they are all on backorder!!! Oh, no! So long story short, I went with a 2013 Godin Session I found at GC online. It shares a lot in common with the Johnston guitars from Schec (mostly attention to detail!). And then I found this long-form vid and was amazed by the playing! I really wish I'd been able to wait for the next wave of these green and pink guitars to come shooting out of Schecter, but I had to have one now. Fortunately the Godin is excellent. I kind of feel that I'll regret not getting the Johnston... Nick, you could be playing anything and sound great, but your signature guitars here seem perfect for what you do. Mostly, I am blown away by your ability to rise above shredding, and go for emotion and melody throughout. Well done. Beautiful stuff.
Congratulations Sir Johnston! My friends say for years that I have to play my music out there .. I tell them that it is difficult to understand (In my opinion) the combination that is needed for this to happen. It's not just about talent, the right time or the right equipment. It does not make sense to me if you can not give your love and character through your music. Sir, you just did it in perfect way... .. this is a Masterpiece.
Great, Nick! Thanks much! Keep on creating your wonderful music! It's Remarkably Amazing! :-) Actually you are the best one in the modern guitar world. And you've absorbed features of all of our lovely guitar heroes! From Russia with respect and admire. Cheers! PS Weakened by winter -- it's tears, I cry...
What a fantastic album. I love how in the last track, one of main themes comes back but in a slightly (I think only the last note is higher) different variation that makes it sound more optimistic. As if the struggles have been overcome and there is reason to be hopeful once again. Will be listening to this many times more. Thank you!
One of the best album I have every listened to. Your music has inspired me in a lot of different ways Nick. Looking forward to your future work. Cheers 🙌
That little melody you play, like at 36.28 is one of the most beautiful sounding licks iv ever heard, every time it comes on, its like the first time you see the love of your life
sinceramente Tenes un tono un sonido y una técnica indiscutible . un feeling muy particular para un guitarrista. Increíble trabajo te felicito se nota que le dedicaste mucho tiempo y trabajo . Saludos desde Argentina!!!
man you was one of the coolest musicians I met. lol. and amazingly talented. I'm glad I got to see you with 2 of my favorite bands now. BTBAM and The Contortionist.
Amazing guitar playing, amazing album, could stare at the video for hours... This is one of those pieces of music that will remain in my short list for the rest of my life for sure!!
Thank you all so much for all the love towards this record over the last couple of years. Truly means the world! If you'd like to support my music, please visit nickjohnstonmusic.com/

Nick, impecable way of playing the guitar. Very great job, masterpiece as a whole!
You transmit a lot of sensations through your music. Congrats!
This is one of the best album to come out in the past 10 years. Remarkably different. Remarkably fresh. Remarkably emotional. Remarkably human.
Completely agree...
Agreed dude, I discovered the album by a youtube suggestion and it was a blast. Incredibly emotional
I'm a robot and I approve.
I like the somewhat straightforward but meanful compositions with the storytelling and to the point sounds and arrangements combined with the effortless playing with feeling. 10/10. My all time top 10 albums.
Perfect comment.
beautiful
I knew you'd be here. You're always on good guitar content..lol
I'm never shocked to find you here, but I really admire that you take the time to watch, and interact with, so much content on TH-cam. *the whole room claps* and *all the ladies scream "Rudy Ayoub is pretty cool"*
Masterpiece of an album, Nick. One of my favourites! 👏
Love seeing you here man. I freaking LOVE your jam tracks!!!
the jam track god is here
I keep coming back to these videos for no other reason than Nick has such style in how he plays in a way that almost no one else matches, and makes it look so entirely effortless. Still amazing.
Timestamps now present for people like us :)
some players make you want to give up your instruments
some inspire you to pick it up more often
you sir, are the second kind.
masterpiece of an album!
Its one of the best records i've ever listened to. Made me want to pick up a guitar again after all these years outside music
I love how Nick is just randomly grabbing guitars from the ground.
Fantastic album btw!
looks like when ichigo was taking random zanpakuto from the ground to find his bankai 😌
remarkably convenient guitars
The album is simply great. I can't stop looking at the cover while listening to the music. Remarkable combo. Keep rocking. Your guitar sings.
My guitar was sitting in the case for 2 years and after this i can't stop playing it!! Thank you for the influence Nick.
Best influence ever...
fuck yes bro keep playing it
Don't we all wish we can stumble through a field to a beautiful Schecter strat...
Magic to my ears, This is one of those albums I always listen to them whole because I just can't get enough of it.
This is EASILY the BEST guitar album i have ever heard!😲 I have been playing for over 30 years now and this is simply the best guitar based music i have heard yet!
Bravo Mr Johnston! your hours of and hours of practice definitely paid off!🤘
Weakened by winter will help us to be stronger. Each piece a gem, but this is a diamond ! Thank you, Nick !
No words! Remarkable! Incredible phrasing! The ultimate example of less is more! Every note played has meaning and makes sense. I’m blown away by this composition!!! Literally brought me to tears!
I haven't watched it yet (or listened to the album for that matter), but having a music video for an entire album is amazing.
Hope you enjoyed it, I this entire album is a masterpiece
Just when I thought guitar albums were getting dull... I found this gem. Cheers Nick
This is my new favourite film
I have been listening to this on loop on my car since it came out. One of my favourite albums ever.
Vidéo remarquable .Musique grandiose d’humanité laissant au monde de réfléchir .Composition musicale extraordinaire .Thank à lot guitariste hors du commun .🙏🧑🎤

Hello, Nick! Today is my friend's birthday and I just saw the notification of this video and sent to him immediately. Because of him, I knew you and now, you upload a video in his birthday!
So cool!
Regardless, I love the way that you put your guitar to sound, man. We can feeling all the emotion that you put on each phrase you play on this magic instrument called electric guitar.
Since my friend has been show me your songs I had been love all of them. Congratulations!
Truly a MASTERPIECE!!!......Timeless....Elegant...Sophisticated....takes you through a journey into space and back!!!
Stumbled onto this and think its fantastic..
NJ is the kind of guitarist that provide a new sound when you think you have heard everything , I love his work
Well Nick - if I may state the bleeding obvious - coz, in this case, it can't be overstated.

You're making this period of quarantine a lot more bearable with this. Thank you!!
A fine example of attaining a level of mastery past technicality where you feel the music and let the guitar sing. Great stuff
Random find! Listening for the first time. Right in my comfort zone. Taking me back to some of my guitar roots and feeling like you've connected with the greats. Namaste.
This is one of the most beautiful video photography i’ve ever seen
makes me feel like i am floating through space checking out all the other planets as i fall asleep to it... instrumental music can sound, well, boring and generally, bad, but this is incredible, the playing, tones, arranging, writing, everything.. perfection! i don't know if you call it shred, it has neo classical and fusion runs etc but to me this too musical and classy to be called that, the blues licks are so tasty, taste, is a key word here.. this should be massive, if you have a disposable income support this artist!
My favorite Nick Johnston album. Timeless piece work of art
I have lost count of how many times I listened to the entire record just me and my dog on the farm.
I created twelve artworks listening your music, they are in a gallery in poços de caldas Brazil in 2018.
I listened to this album on TH-cam a lot. Bought your albums plus t-shirts a few months ago to support you.
Keep making this awsome music :)
Your touch, your sound, your phrasing... Man, this album is a beauty, really.
I'm in love, with your music ;)
Looking forward to hearing more from you, not too soon please I'm having this on repeat repeatedly :p
Great song and vídeo congratulations very very good
Wow!!! ...Astonishing!. Soulful, touching, full of expression, great chops, shred as well, great phraseing and musichianship. But do you care to share the gear information about the gear? I know that the the diference it's usually made by the hands that are playing, but that Strat/single coil twang!? So clear and mudful in the same time... What pick-ups, amp configuration do you use?

Masterpiece. Thank you Nick for such outstanding composition.
Excellent compositions. Thanks for sharing.
Harmoni, beautiful , sweet and very soft ❤️💐💐💐😎

So great. Thanks so much for this @Nick Johnston
Thank you for this Nick!
Glad to have discovered this guy tonight. Keep doing your thang, Nick. You have a gift
i've listened to this album since it was released in September 2016. For some reason I always come back to it. What you've created here is truly unique. Beautiful. Thank you for mesmerizing us the past 5 years.

Just real guitar strat music IT IS Mr. Nick Johnston.worldwide the only one
This is just another example in which we can confirm, music is about feelings, emotions, melodies, different nuances, fast medium and slow guitar licks, etc... great job
Wonderful music Nick... This is MY genre... I compose and play similar musical ramblings, alway with some catchy melody/riff/hook ... Love it! Very emotive, very environmental and yes... Remarkably Human.
Melody and tone. I'm envious of your impeccably clean technique. I'm especially enamored with your slow melodic passages.
This album sounds like a LONG jamming all over one song. It´s a good album with great melodies and exquisite playing but really FLAT. Love the idea of this complete album´s filming. Adds a lot of feeling & atmosphere for a more vivid experience.
WOW! I was going to skip this after about the first ten seconds, thought I'd give a little longer.....53 minutes and eleven seconds later I wanted to play it again. Well done Nick. This should be up there with the all time classics. Beautiful.
Extremely good album. It always plays on the soundtrack of my brain. Thanks Nick Johnston and greetings from Colombia.
Pure guitrar! That's what I like the most! Great job!!

Fantastico ed originale,Nick è un grande chitarrista di questi tempi. Complimenti bellissime sonorità
Congratulations Sir Johnston!

No words are enough to describe it. What a whim, perfection!
Great video :) thank you for sharing with us 👍
So glad I was suggested Nick by a mate of mine. I now have a signed copy of this album and I believe it to be rather epic.
Didn't make it 10 minutes in.... until I had to buy the album on Bandcamp. Never heard of you before.
One of the best albums I have ever listened to. Nick Johnston rules.
Great, Nick! Thanks much!
