    I'm almost 47 and I'm glad to see younger generations redefining guitar playing. The first time I heard "G.O.A.T." my mind exploded...and the first time I watched Tim play the riff I freaked out.

      This is a very deep feeling of music, nuance, rhythm, swing, and all this is multiplied by impeccable technique. And it really delivers an indescribable thrill. I have never liked heavy music, but here I can not resist, it is stronger than any drug.

      You'd be surprised how much guitar is still being used in modern music. It was dead between 2011 and 2016, but in recent years it's making a full return. A lot of modern songs now feature guitar melodies etc. It's just, everything sounds so "safe" and pristine and that's why I have great dislike for 90% of the music on the radio (at least on top charts radio stations).

    4 years ago my uncle told me his guitarist son said I’d like this band, I forgot what he said for a while, a bit later I decided to just check out what they’re all about. Now I’ve gone to a show, met them all personally, and play dozens of their songs every day. My favorite band and biggest inspiration by far.

    These dudes are badass!!! I heard them for the first time last night in my self-defense class. I was hooked from the very first song. During a break, I asked my Instructor, "WHO is THIS?" He told me and sent me a link to G.O.A.T., which I listened to when I got home. Right now, I'm working from home. So instead of playing my usual variety of playlists, I'm checking out Polyphia here on youtube and I'm just blown away. When listening to them, I can't help but think back to the days when I would immerse myself in some Steve Vai. He was making sounds on a guitar that I had never heard before. The kinds of sounds that make you smile and squeeze your eyes shut, crinkle your nose, and with a sharp head nod, make you say, "DAMN!" These guys make me do the exact same thing. I only wish that I had found them sooner. Four albums in? Where in the hell have I been? Truly, love at first listen.

      True, but do keep in mind that Ichika still had a musical background, he played bass and other instruments so he wasn't a complete beginner at music. If you already can play one instrument you can learn others in a relatively shorter amount of time because the foundation and finger dexterity has already been built.

My shout-out goes to the drummer in the bass player for knowing how to play around all of that complex intricacy and not step on anybody's toes... It's not what you playing is how you play it!!!!! \m/

      But I can't be the only who thinks it's a little odd that, despite the numerous guitar playthrough videos they have, the first music they do, they don't even bother to include the bassist or the drummer? As a guitar player, I'm all for it, but a great band (such as Polyphia) is not JUST about one or two members. Everyone contributes to the sound. Otherwise, it'd just be repetitive and boring.

    I've been wondering, my whole life, what it would sound like, if a bunch of metalheads just took their insanely fast and just plain insane skills and made fucking melodic songs that combine a whole bunch of shit, jazz, dubstep, drum n bass and who knows what other shit, that it would just become "mainstream", while maintaining that insane undeniable power that metal music always had, at least in my mind!
    I am happy to report that I ain't wondering no more!
    I've been listening for weeks now, going through all the songs and shit, and I can just say, THIS IS INASNE lol The transformation and changes are undeniable over the time, but all the songs just have that SHIT that makes your spine stingy, no matter the style, genre or anything!

      Brandon Gordon Yeah, I've seen it...and yes they stepped up the drums & bass a bit. Look, my problem with Polyphia doesn't lie with their talents. There's no doubt that they have mastered their instruments. The problem is the songwriting. They use similar patterns in pretty much all of their songs. When I hear their music it just sounds like one guitar solo after the next for like 4 minutes. Their music sort of lacks substance, its pretty much just flashy melodies and streamlined production so it gets boring pretty quickly. Instead of being a dick about it, you could just disregard my opinion, just like I will with yours.

    As a long time lover of virtuosic guitar solos and nerdy music, the music _video_ for this song single-handedly put me off Polyphia for at least 5 years.
    Show me you’re a 15 year old guitarist without actually showing me: “Hey can we can get some booth babes up in here to look kinda bored while pretending to be our side pieces and give us scalp massages while we play video game music?”
    Now that they seem to have figured out who they are (both Scotty and Tim lookin a lot more natural and less cringey with their 2024 hair and without showboating while some people just try to have a damn conversation in the background 😅), I’ve found myself much more impressed with how they’ve blended such disparate styles as metal, electronic, and hip hop into something new and unique.
