Made this video a while back based on an instagram clip of him playing this riff, turns out it's the intro to a brand new song! How cool. The description below is the same as it was originally posted.

Aaaaand the song is out!! He took the clip of the riff down at some point so glad to find you had it here 😊 great tutorial

Its got such a Tool vibe when played slow......but the way Olly plays it so fast and smooth is just mind blowing. Olly is by far my favorite guitarist, especially after getting his JTC packs......the guy is a genius

My weird brain thought about this riff today at work so I appreciate making this tutorial

[@GenesisProducer]

I learned this on bass because of this! Thank you!

[@TinoHutabarat1984]

So great lesson thankyou 🙏🙏🙏🔥😎👊

sweet!

[@sohamdata]

can you do a tutorial on Scott's outro riff in icronic?

[@jimihendrix1650]

It's funny how most of us started off as noobs downpicking everything, and considered alternate picking "advanced", but then one day, it came full circle.
Same thing with palm mutes, and playing multiple consecutive notes with the same finger.
I used to consider chromatics to be noob stuff, but then I realized that they are all over jazz
Anyway, thanks for the video. Probably sounds great on a bass

what is that TF its tripping me out

[@adambenjamin2692]

what guitar is that bro?!

[@chicken6111]

Honestly I'm not sure lol, a very cheap Ibanez RG model. I got it years ago for about $300. But it's ol' reliable!

@@chicken6111 Dude, it looks and sounds expensive. How about the feel?
