Been listening to them since they released their debut in 2000. Hard to believe it's been 20 years, but it's awesome to see that they're still at it and evolving as musicians.
Probably one of the most modest guitarists out there. Dude has come up with some of the coolest riffs in Thrice’s albums. He’s the reason I picked up the guitar.
As a musician I totally get it, but It's honestly depressing to see almost joke on his old riffs like he will never write shit like that again. Because I'd give them all my money to produce even something close to Vheissu again, that album was the perfect blend of heavy and beautiful melody. I remember buying The Artist in the Ambulance and War All the Time on I think on the same day in Hot Topic. The early 2000's were incredible.
Yup. As much as he's a master of tone, creativity and restraint these days, the guy could fucking shred and wrote catchy riffs like they were nothing. The Illusion Of Safety and TAITA are a masterclass in catchy metal riffs.
The illusion of safety changed my life. When they played to awake and avenge the dead at the warp Tour (2002 or 2003), probably one of the best songs i have ever watched live
Why are so many artists ashamed of their old music, especially if it was heavy. These interviews with hardcore artists commonly have moments where they'll mention old music they played, and downtalk the music and themselves. Growing as an artist is good, but be proud of what got you to where you are. Don't worry about what the scene kids today think. Under a killing moon was amazing. The whole album was, and songs like that got so many of us through that period of time. I certainly hope that, at least at the time, there was some emotional connection for them to that song. If not, they sure can write incredible music outside of what they enjoy. Thrice is one of the few hardcore bands that evolved, and continue to still put out incredible music. Love you guys
I think for thrice, based solely on interviews and comments from the members and some comments from fans. They faced a lot of backlash from not "typecasting" themselves and wanting to create different sounds. So they feel a need to defend where they are and what they're doing. At a certain point they became very blunt about it, like you hear Teppei here, "I don't like playing like that". I follow Dustin and Riley and know for a fact they listen to heavy metal, just doesn't mean Dustin wants to scream on every song HE sings.
cant deny how awesome it was when the philosophy turned into lyrics. made you think. turned the songs more artistic. separated from most other bands in the "scene"/ genre
his playing under a killing moon makes me want to go listen to that song and paper tigers . interesting all the comments about him playing smoke in the water.
Not gonna lie it hurts my heart a little bit to see how dismissive he is of Under A Killing Moon. I love that era of the band, and that song is so fun *because* of the riffs. Totally get that he's grown and likes to write different things now (and I continue to like their more recent work), it just stings to see him criticizing and almost embarrassed by older stuff that still holds a special place to me.
Its so interesting to hear him talk about Metallica being an inspiration because they were the band that made me want to play guitar and then I heard Thrice and it just elevated my mind on riffage.
"So yeah our old stuff is lame" **plays fun cheesy riff from Under A Killing Moon** "Our awesome new stuff with feel is way better" **plays a chord progression any 90s alternative band could have come up with** As much as I love Thrice's evolution as a band, I don't think anybody kids themself that TIOS > Alchemy was their golden era. Even their early cheesy Metallica-meets-Refused-meets-In Flames stuff was REALLY good for what it was, especially in the riff department. Everything since M/M is average to good - they've never put out a bad album - but they kinda feel autopilot and missing that energy and experimental spark they were known for. I totally get outgrowing your old material, but keeping and celebrating those beginnings to what made you who you are today is a big part of keeping that inner creative fire lit AND keeping the fans happy, imo.
@jasper426 hell yeah tho the illusion of safety has a special place in my heart. if were talking riffs cant ever leave out deadbolt and to awake and avenge the dead
Metallica and Thrice are my favorite two bands. Metallica will always be my all time favorite but in the last 14 years or so it’s been all Thrice for me. So to hear him name Metallica as an inspiration is awesome. Wish Thrice got more coverage.
it is hard to find a new band for me to listen..i listen Alice In Chains alot..and umm STP..one day i accidentally heard one song from Thrice in my friend's house. I found it
Seems like most bands get less riffy over time, sorta sad he doesn't enjoy playing those sorta songs now, wish they could co-exist in a way he enjoyed playing them.
So funny Teppei and Dustin can both absolutely shred on guitar.... but both seem so uncomfortable in a setting like this. Dustin was the same in an Ernie Ball add... Just so funny to me, I'd kill to be as good as them on guitar but they both are so humble you'd think they suck.
Artist in the ambulance is your best album, dude. Sad, that you guys exchanged Thrice for Radiohead-clone. I still like your music, but it is just nit the same :(
I have a theory that many of the bands that start playing heavy music young end up playing less heavy music once they get older due to a lack of testosterone once you age
@@Lunareste lol no trust me I know that joke very well. However there are people that hate on anything new Thrice does and only cares about their “heavy” days. So I never truly know when someone is either being sarcastic or funny.
No idea who this guy is but I thought I'd give him a shot Then he played smoke on the water completely wrong There's many ways to play it I get that but either play something the right way or don't bother playing it at all
Go and listen to his guitar work and come back here with your findings. Let us know what you’ve learned and what you regret about your original statement.
Ahh yes one of the old school Thrice fans one who won’t except that they grew up and matured into better song writing and musical capability and just want them to make The Artist In the Ambulance 10 times over
@@darthjalapeno not really, the artist in the ambulance didn't have the energy and musical drive that illusion of safety and identity crisis had. And hell no, its not about them making another copy album. The thing about thrice is that they turned out to be a completely different band with the same members, i think that's what old school fans mean. Anyways, I've come to appreciate their latest 3 albums though to do so i have to think of them as 2 separate bands lol.

Thrice is a very underrated band.
Really are. Fucking amazing band. Unique.
Been listening to them since they released their debut in 2000. Hard to believe it's been 20 years, but it's awesome to see that they're still at it and evolving as musicians.
Thrice is huge man
They stay underrated so no one can tell them what to do
Idk about underrated. They’ve massively respected and influential.
Probably one of the most modest guitarists out there. Dude has come up with some of the coolest riffs in Thrice’s albums. He’s the reason I picked up the guitar.
I'll be damned if I said I didn't miss the riffy Teppei days..

Me every time a new thrice album is coming: please be heavy punk melodic!.... oh.... well shit this is epic anyway!
@@josflorida5346 same!! Lol
@@Strizz484 did he ever play solos in a thrice song?
One of my favorite bands since I was 13. Am now 30 years old
feel ya. 32yo here, the artist in the ambulance was huge when i was 16
@@mike_tkgchs that was my first introductory album to the band 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
The illusion of safety changed my life. When they played to awake and avenge the dead at the warp
Tour (2002 or 2003), probably one of the best songs i have ever watched live
Thrice has this extensive style in its discography and yet I keep finding myself playing A Torch to End All Torches over and over.
misguided satelite, i circle by habit. cant find my orbit to save my life.
Long ago I was derailed!
Long ago the mission failed!
But in the distance, there appeared a light!
This man can be so humble, yet play the guitar like a demigod.
God bless you Teppei!!!

@@losgryfog Yes, I remember Vheissu and this happening. You may be right.
Thrice is one of those bands that no matter how many times their sound might evolve, it always works.
Kill Em All, Ride The Lightning and Master Of Puppets.
*plays Smoke On The Water*
*Me yelling at my screen* “play deadbolt!”
Everyone*
Yesss Teppei playing No Knife! Two great bands collide
I was floored when he played The Red Bedroom by No Knife riff. Ultimate favorite riff.
i love that guitar
DAngelico Premier Mini DC OceanTurquoise
Teppei is so much less awkward than Dustin and is much more straight forward. When Dustin is on I get lost because he’s so philosophical
Too much jesus for me.
cant deny how awesome it was when the philosophy turned into lyrics. made you think. turned the songs more artistic. separated from most other bands in the "scene"/ genre
@@tomace194 Not so much anymore. He no longer holds to biblical innerancy.
don't mind if a person holds a belief system, but when they all sound like the same media trained clones it's kinda off-putting
Teppei is a guitar legend
his playing under a killing moon makes me want to go listen to that song and paper tigers . interesting all the comments about him playing smoke in the water.
Still love the end of abolition of man. I still rock that album to this day
Not gonna lie it hurts my heart a little bit to see how dismissive he is of Under A Killing Moon. I love that era of the band, and that song is so fun *because* of the riffs.

Teppei is the lead guitarist in my fantasy super band.
Was NOT expecting him to namedrop No Knife! One of the best bands around, definitely suggest checking them out if you haven't.
One of my favorite no knife songs. So many good ones to choose from
what's the name of the song?
Its so interesting to hear him talk about Metallica being an inspiration because they were the band that made me want to play guitar and then I heard Thrice and it just elevated my mind on riffage.
When I feel I’m about to loose my shit completely I just listen to Thrice :')
this guy's face is so shiny, very high quality
Favorite band and always will be....nuff said
"So yeah our old stuff is lame" **plays fun cheesy riff from Under A Killing Moon**
"Our awesome new stuff with feel is way better" **plays a chord progression any 90s alternative band could have come up with**

Awesome! Thrice is amazing.
First 3 albums were great. Then it got softer and softer
So humble Teppei
Literally the first riff I taught myself in 9th grade!!!
i prefer the under a killing moon riff over everything else played
T&C by Thrice, best riffage
@jasper426 hell yeah tho the illusion of safety has a special place in my heart. if were talking riffs cant ever leave out deadbolt and to awake and avenge the dead
Deadbolt hands down
He's the kind of guy that picks up any instrument and is already better than most. Kind of annoying lol (LOVE Thrice btw)
Greatest band to ever do it.
Metallica and Thrice are my favorite two bands. Metallica will always be my all time favorite but in the last 14 years or so it’s been all Thrice for me. So to hear him name Metallica as an inspiration is awesome. Wish Thrice got more coverage.
I can hear the no knife influence for sure
I WANT ANOTHER TEPPEI RIFFS VIDEO!!!#!@^#&$
Genius
Under a Killing Moon 🤘
Thank You Forza Horizon 3 and Burnout Revenge (Blood on The Sand and Lullaby are My favorite Songs)
it is hard to find a new band for me to listen..i listen Alice In Chains alot..and umm STP..one day i accidentally heard one song from Thrice in my friend's house. I found it
Hola y gracias y saludos cordiales desde Mallorca para vosotros louwire
Wow that's cool! I'm super into Metallica, but I also really like Thrice. I didn't know he listened to Metallica. Very cool!
i think it's pretty safe to say that any hard rock/metal band that came after Metallica were definitely fans of them
Thrice - "Torch to end all torches"
@@alexm3046 Yeah it sounds just like a Metallica song!
i miss thrice
Whats the last song named?
Thison The Red Bedroom
Thrice should be as big as Deftones!
Seems like most bands get less riffy over time, sorta sad he doesn't enjoy playing those sorta songs now, wish they could co-exist in a way he enjoyed playing them.
How can anyone say a bad word about this band.?
I like riff central
So funny Teppei and Dustin can both absolutely shred on guitar.... but both seem so uncomfortable in a setting like this. Dustin was the same in an Ernie Ball add... Just so funny to me, I'd kill to be as good as them on guitar but they both are so humble you'd think they suck.
Thrice are awesome but the tone in this vid could have been better. Needed more gain probably.
Did they really give him a Marshall solid state amp to play on? What a shame lol
What brand is that guitar?
Love Thrice, Love Teppei, but Smoke On The Water is in G, not E….idk. Stuff like that drives me crazy
No Paper Tigers?!
What kind of guitar is that?
Smoke on the water was totally wrong haha. He’s still awesome
Could have given him a half decent amp here. This could sound way better if the tone wasn't terrible.
Why doesn't anyone play smoke on the water correctly?
anonymous pickle his guitar was in drop c that’s why he played it like that
@@darthjalapeno why wasn't he in e standard correctly?
anonymous pickle I don’t know this is just a bad interview/video his playing sucks in this
I've been listening to Fight Academy Song from No Knife since judge school!! I'm 35 now.
wtf this isn't enough lmao
Artist in the ambulance is your best album, dude. Sad, that you guys exchanged Thrice for Radiohead-clone. I still like your music, but it is just nit the same :(
1:17 "more wussier now"
Dream Theater....Kamelot
Plays smoke on the water in the wrong key “I think it’s the easiest riff” 😂😂😂
Sad to hear how dismissive he is of the great song "Under a Killing Moon" because it's been downhill since "The Artist in the Ambulance"...
I agree!! Those first three albums what got me into them. After Artist in Ambulance album..I couldn't get into their music anymore.
I have a theory that many of the bands that start playing heavy music young end up playing less heavy music once they get older due to a lack of testosterone once you age
Never thought of that
Nice theory
haha its part of that but there's more to it for sure
lmao or they actually discover there's more to music than endless chunky riffs and showoff playing
That shift was obvious, post vihessu was all shit.
No one wants to hear that new crap. Just play Deadbolt.
Cory Courtney wrong
@@DanielRodriguez-eh1qd The joke is that people keep shouting "Deadbolt!" at all their concerts because that's what they want to hear
@@Lunareste lol no trust me I know that joke very well. However there are people that hate on anything new Thrice does and only cares about their “heavy” days. So I never truly know when someone is either being sarcastic or funny.
@@Lunareste Thank you. It was a reference to the long running joke.
A joke to which I entirely agree.
Fk their snoozefest of new music. I want passion and to vent my frustrations, not put my 3 year old niece to bed.
Who?😂
Question I asked myself after seeing your name
He is the guitarist from thrice and he’s a badass guitar player
knotwire?? cringe unsubscribing
No idea who this guy is but I thought I'd give him a shot
Then he played smoke on the water completely wrong
There's many ways to play it I get that but either play something the right way or don't bother playing it at all
If you get to know him he’s in my opinion one of the best guitarist out there
Weeeeeoooooo weeeeooooooo GUITAR POLICE HANDS UP
Go and listen to his guitar work and come back here with your findings. Let us know what you’ve learned and what you regret about your original statement.
