My buddy Noah showed me this song a year before he died in a car accident. The dude was rad. This song will forever remind me of him. You guys friggin shred
100% agree. Every single part on it's own would be fun to listen to. The entire band was showing out on this tune. I miss when Brandon Burkhalter was in the band. He has such a throwback drum style with a modern twist.
Its very undderated. Up their with all the new stuff as far as tastiness. This, 40oz and champagne are the best songs they've written prior to new devils.
Only recently found you. I can't believe this is before a lot of the facial hair that I'd recognise, and the vibe sounds so different but just as masterful and amazing
I mean that may be the case but that's got so little to do with how this sounds. Joe satriani does a similar style of playing and I'm fairly sure he has absolutely zero anime influence.. granted polyphia and satriani are some of the best guitar players I have ever listened to..
@@cateatinrat78 Lol if NLND is too technical I don't know what I can do for you. It's original and fresh, it might be technical but it's not sold as it
Yeah I do like this style a bit, I do like their transition with the Renaissance album and Muse has enough bangers to keep me satisfied. The issue with their older albums is the audio quality as the percussion sounds too fast and just repetitive. Their new stuff is great too, and really fun on guitar as well.
Can someone let them know that this song has become somehow corrupted on Spotify’s servers and has been replaced with the audio from Baditude? EDIT: It looks like the problem has been fixed since I first posted this.
thrasheriam I saw them last October and actually got to meet them. The pollen was so bad here in GA though that they all had the sniffles, so I ended up giving them benadryl. I've been told that's not typically what fans do when they come to get their tee-shirt signed.
“Okay so we wrote a cool song that sound awesome, what should we name it?” “James Franco” “What? It doesn’t have anything to do with him” “Well, we’ll make a musix video about him”
This song is awesome. But imagine if James Franco himself, no mask, had made a cameo appearance. High on some pineapple express, just cutting a fucking rug. That'd be some over 9000 shit.

i learned the G chord last week, this song is next weeks task.
Make sure to have some G Strings on. It's a necessity.
Two weeks have passed. How are you doin mate?
curious how your progress is!
Judging by the 'roadmap', OP is so advanced now, probably playing drum parts with the guitar.
sorry for the late response guys, i’ve actually been on tour... safe to say i’m doing pretty good
was anyone else expecting the face thing to come off and reveal actual james franco
I would've bet money on it.
i was waiting for that to happen the whole video
Same
Its been like 3 years now, but I'm still wonder why the hell did they name this song James Franco
Jaejae fuentez they said they just wanted to get his attention and that was basically it
jeff. iss mfn. jeff.
He's literally singing all over the track. Did you even listen to the song?
@jeajae fuentez
I wish they named this Song Shia LaBeauf
Wait do you not see him throughout the music video? Do you even watch videos?
Next. James Franco plays Polyphia
Stop it. 😂
Haha
My buddy Noah showed me this song a year before he died in a car accident. The dude was rad. This song will forever remind me of him. You guys friggin shred
I’m sorry for your loss man. He had great taste.!
@@destinhoward7378 He most definitely did. Thank you, Destin.
So sorry for your loss, hold onto those memories and I hope for strength for you and all of his loved ones!
@@andresni981 that means a whole lot. Thank you. 🤘
I hope he's shredding up there bud. Sorry for your loss. At least you have a delightful and uplifting song to remember him by.
Some say the man behind the James Franco mask is James Franco himself
Can't believe they managed to actually get James for the video. How cool!
Masons can aways get fellow masons
I love how tim looks 21 here but 16 now
James Fran-core
The most underrated song by Polyphia hands down. I love everything about it and it's ALWAYS in my head!
100% agree. Every single part on it's own would be fun to listen to. The entire band was showing out on this tune. I miss when Brandon Burkhalter was in the band. He has such a throwback drum style with a modern twist.
@@jabronijoeoutdoors same. its so sick
Its very undderated. Up their with all the new stuff as far as tastiness. This, 40oz and champagne are the best songs they've written prior to new devils.
2:29... just gonna leave that there
One of the most jam-packed first 10 seconds songs in the world for me.
Along with welcome to the jungle by GnR, this song's intro slaps, but it actually manages to deliver on the hype it sets up at the start 👌
Its hard to chose what sound I like more old tim henson or new tim but goddamn the kids can play
A song I don't mind getting stuck in my head.
An archer!
Current favourite song. Love the motif throughout (0:27, 1:37, 2:46). So whistleable. It's also great for mountain-biking.
Not shitting on the new style but I definitely miss this
You are not alone, sir.
This song has the best vibe out of all their songs. Even Icronic.
I love James Franco, but I still think LIT wins best vibe
Nah Light is the best Polyphia song, followed by 40oz and Euphoria
I love their responses to James's interview questions
especially Brandon's and Scottie's
got me to crack up a bunch
That's a different drummer right?'
The dude they have now is insane. Love his style
yep
The band is basically childhood friends, the drummer left in 2016. Well he left then came back then left again
He kicked ass in this song though. This and Hourglass are my very favorites.
@@songoku433 he's good but I defenitely prefere the current drummer
Yeah that's Brandon the original. He's a good friend of mine, but I even prefer Clay. Clay is a madman.
Only 38k views? This is like, the most underrated song
I think more of their fans watch their music videos on their youtube page than the vevo page.
TH-cam algorithm: "I can fix that"
You just have to love Clay headbanging to this song that is so cool...
Listening to this after New Levels New Devils really shows how much they've matured as musicians and as a band. Quite impressive.
Yeah and the drummer even matured into a completely different person 🙂
@@TheGrizzlo503he was so flipping handsome that if he did continue in the band, he would become the face of it
Too bad bro was a clout chaser who apparently tried to expose the band as money hungry commerical sellouts but failed to do so
@@thequebee_0101source
2:20 love this part
i really hope francos heard this already. he"d totally get this band out there
This reminds me so much of Japanese animé closing theme songs I used to watch as a kid
That twist at the end when you find out it is actually James Franco
Absolute chills at 2:20
This will forever be my fav polyphia song
same
same
same
Yup
Same, 100%
Only recently found you. I can't believe this is before a lot of the facial hair that I'd recognise, and the vibe sounds so different but just as masterful and amazing
O feel so bad finding about this band so late
2:20 fucking love this run
I love polyphia’s new weird style but I wish they did some shreddy stuff every now and then just because it sounds so happy
I mean they did an inferno cover for the needle drop and it was reminiscent of this older stuff
Have you tried playing their new stuff? It's shredding all the way
I got news for you this is shredding
I agree. They’re old stuff like muse and renaissance felt like nostalgic. The new stuff is cool too but it doesn’t hit the feels as much imho.
Ngas want my old shit, buy my old album - JayZ.
Things I say every time I come back here:
- I should pick up skateboarding
- This song needs more views
Am I the only who remembers that there was another James Franco music video that came before this? only you can't seem to find it on TH-cam anymore?
pyromaniaxz you mean by hoodie Allen?
0:20 i didn't know James Franco was Canadian
I love how nonchalant the percussionist is.
Samantha Booth he’s got better things to do and just wants to get this over with :P
This is maybe the first band I've ever heard overtly*** try to make me feel good through the rhythm and beat
Its so upbeat and joyful and technical 🔥
Their sound changed so much since this, it's just crazy.
i love how they were heavily inspired by the japanese rock/anime style genre
I mean that may be the case but that's got so little to do with how this sounds.
Joe satriani does a similar style of playing and I'm fairly sure he has absolutely zero anime influence.. granted polyphia and satriani are some of the best guitar players I have ever listened to..
@@ithomas7788 I love the idea of Joe Satriani being the biggest undercover anime fan xD
All time favourite Polyphia song
Oh god I feel nostalgic during that shread section. 2010 vibes early internet era all around. I miss the old times damn.
I do believe that this is the best guitar playing I have ever seen
Checking back on you, did you keep following Polyphia?
@klamin_original obviously, Tim henson is my boyfriend now
@@dacian2856 why just boyfriend, I think Tim Henson should be your timfriend. You don’t need more in life.
Damn, how'd they get James Franco to star in this vid?
God this is a freaking banger. I wish they stayed in that phase for longer.
NLND is a masterpiece dude no regrets
@@loupcordeille-bougault3474 too technical. Sounds like EDM :/
@@cateatinrat78 Lol if NLND is too technical I don't know what I can do for you. It's original and fresh, it might be technical but it's not sold as it
Yeah I do like this style a bit, I do like their transition with the Renaissance album and Muse has enough bangers to keep me satisfied. The issue with their older albums is the audio quality as the percussion sounds too fast and just repetitive. Their new stuff is great too, and really fun on guitar as well.
Great to see Polyphia grab a VEVO channel!
I love this band so frickin much bro
Their new stuff is great but this will always be my favorite Polyphia song
These lyrics speak to my soul
Im still freakin lovin it
this song is soooooooooo underrated
its like the exams i swear, take the guitar......final exam - POLYPHIA.
That flow from 2:04 - 2:12 just lives in my head rent free.
My Brain Cannot comprehend this greatness!!!
the biggest achievement i have ever had that is related to polyphia is playing the video and tabbed version on songsterr at the same time :|
We need a video of James Franco reacting to this.
Plot twist: James Franco is wearing his own face mask.
That’s big brain
that guy with his mask made my night
i saw yall play this one live in dallas once and that shit ripped my face off fr
Can someone let them know that this song has become somehow corrupted on Spotify’s servers and has been replaced with the audio from Baditude?
EDIT: It looks like the problem has been fixed since I first posted this.
過小評価さ(the Japanese on his shirt) means 'underrated.'
dherman311 I wanna see these guys live!!!
thrasheriam I saw them last October and actually got to meet them. The pollen was so bad here in GA though that they all had the sniffles, so I ended up giving them benadryl. I've been told that's not typically what fans do when they come to get their tee-shirt signed.
Thank you. Just adds more to comical side.
Underrated comment
I would really love to know who your influences are to get such a unique sound
One day I want James Franco to make a reaction video to this song
Pre anime transformation tim is INSANE
you guys are amazing
I'm missing this Polyphia
woooh! thats the best lyrics i'ved ever heard! and that scream at end? its so amazing!!
wah wah wah wah early james franco
still wondering how this is one of their only songs with sub 1m views. It's one of their best lmao
This is my ringtone.
Scott looks like mr beast here change my mind
this song just makes me happy 😀👍
love it !!
I just watched it for the title jajaja good trap brrrr
Love it, first time I’m hearing it, sounds much more conventional than goat or od but love them all
Stunning to see that they got James Franco for the video. :3
Let’s go 1M!!
If you guys can hear me then please release Renaissance and The Most Hated on vinyl. I need all of you guys' stuff in my collection and I need it now

What std? Anyone please tell me
Love it ! fresh
Never gets old
The song is great needs words but is this guitar player amazing or what ? I am impressed plus I love anything James Franco
as a bass player i was waiting when is the bass solo since this song was launched.
Yay PolyphiaVEVO
Best lyrics ever
Scott's got the biggest nose in the band and still manages to be the cutest.
“Okay so we wrote a cool song that sound awesome, what should we name it?”
“James Franco”
“What? It doesn’t have anything to do with him”
“Well, we’ll make a musix video about him”
Good Music !!
Somehow I can hear the words James Franco being sung throughout the song
This song is awesome. But imagine if James Franco himself, no mask, had made a cameo appearance. High on some pineapple express, just cutting a fucking rug. That'd be some over 9000 shit.
Love this song
is no one I'm this comment section gonna talk about James Franco? lol
Polyphia
Yours instrumental is fucking art!!!!
So aniway, i love you!!!
Greetings from Spain Malaga ;)
Polyphia just took their place in guitar history
"Polyphia is like an STD right?" Me every time I hear the name Caligula.
James Franco better love this shit

Scottie is your favorite Guitarists favorite guitarist
Man. So good
