Still an absolute banger in 2021. Always finding myself going through their newer stuff, and always end up here to appreciate everything they’ve done.
This was my first introduction to polyphia and still my favorite one.
2022 im here
They've always been great. Not sure why people talked shit about em so frequently. Jealous much.
2023
I still think this early era of polyphia was the best stuff they did. It's just way more melodic and I appreciate that a bit more than the robo-clicky tones they have now.
The video that started it all.
When I first saw this a couple of years back I couldn't believe guitar had come this far, opened a whole new world
And now they dumb af
@@diegobarraza7096 Why you on this vid then?
@@diegobarraza7096 how ?
@@diegobarraza7096 they got so much better bruh , their songs are so catchy and unique like holy shit. Maybe not better cause their old music was also super good ..idk man both are fucking incredible
Scotts playing is just so pleasing to hear. He just keeps that consistent timing
Even in their newer music, I like Scott's parts a lot.
@usuallyclueless4477 The new album really gave him some moments to shine too
scott grew into his nose and tim grew into his ears. SO GOOD!
nah scotts nose is not possible to grow in with. my face is facing the same problem.
@@lifesahellofaride i remember people bullying and memeing the schnoz, now they fkn the musical world. dont let it hold you back :)
@@XShmoke I doesn't, never did. i also have big feet
When this came out it was the best thing I've ever heard. The solos and phrasing are so good. The outro solos play in my head on a regular basis.
I miss this era of polyphia, so clean..
honestly I totally agree- I love polyphia but its too busy now. This stuff moves but still very melodic. I feel like their stuff post-renaissance is just too busy. The build-up/solo in this song is one of the best ever recorded IMO
the very first song i heard of Polyphia. Makes me proud to see how far they have gotten. Every album is an amazing piece of art.
@ 3:22 "dude theres a family in the background killin the vibe man"
3:24 "got it bro"
TheEnlightenShadow Made my life. Thank you.
TheEnlightenShadow Hahaha XD
3:40 "they're back, wtf!?"
3:43 "oh fuck, sorry"
Petroglyphs STOP IT PLEASE AHAHAHAHHAHA
TheEnlightenShadow That made my day.
I remember back in 2014 when a friend of mine have shown me this masterpiece, i loved it, but haven't saved it and forgot the name of the band, cause polyphia was niche this time, and this haunted me for a long time, until when aviator came and i was like "OH I KNOW THESE GUYS" and all of the good feelings came back. These guys never fail to blow my mind when it comes to releasing something new, always innovative and always excellent to hear.
Tim's solo is arguably one the greatest thing I've ever heard in my life, thank you guys!
This was the first video that introduced me to them and they still rock just as hard
this video introduced the world to polyphia
probably one of my 5 favorite melody’s of all time… never gets old
Those solos at 3:10 give me the chills every damn time!
Both amazing
I don't know about you all, but even though I've been a fan of Polyphia for over a year or so, I still find this tune the most appealing to my ears and heart out of all what you've wrote, it's just so uplifting and I can NEVER get enough of it! So beautiful...
i keep saying
Was just thinking the same, havent listened to polyphia since this one came out but it is by far the one with most lyrical solos. In my opinion!
This is the polyphia i love. As much as i like their new stuff
Dude, I feel that
Although I kinda feel like we're also remembering the exciting time of watching these guys struggle and grow bit by bit every day and that tight knit feeling of having found our own little corner of the internet/music-sphere
I personally kinda got really uncomfortable with the huge influx of fans joining during GOAT mostly cause there was the assumption that that was just Polyphia, completely ignoring Renaissance, Muse and the rest of their work or just passing it off
I get it not being someone's cup of tea, but I have a problem when people just outright pretend that Polyphia wasn't Polyphia before GOAT or The Most Hated
@@cej3940 facts. I'm here in Dallas, have been my whole life, and seeing these guys for the first time live in 2012 was nothing but a marvel, and we all knew they would grow to be something so big. I'm just reminiscent of those times, and so happy we were all right.
@@yungmeanmug Aye, I'm really proud to be a longtime fan of these guys just as much as everyone else is
It's something amazing watching the group you follow grow up and get noticed
This is the first video I saw of theirs all the way back in 2013 and it pushed me to be better at guitar. I was like 21 and seeing these young kids ripping it up made me hopeful that I could get to that next level.
Came back here to say this. I think the two solos at the end of this song are two of the best solos I have ever heard. Not only are the solos good, but the rhythm behind it is also amazing. You guys really did your thing and deserve every bit of praise you have received since you wrote this.
Great job guys.
Damn, how time flies when you're listening to Polyphia!
6 years, I feel like it was just yesterday I was sharing this amazing new band I found with all of my friends and coworkers.
The world would be a better place if we had things like that as boybands playing on the radio and tv as opposed to One Direction... This is real musical and technical talent. Good job guys!
This is completely different to all other instrumental music out there, and I'm certain these guy will keep at it, someone told me a while back that you need perseverance, personality and playing ability in that order to succeed and these guys have all that, sounds great.
***** Sorry but this sounds nothing like Periphery.
ill listen to them in a min, I'm posting this now so as not to be bias, I know if I was a major dick i still could be but I wont be, ill come back and see if the sound the same, i have my doubts
noconflictbanana yeah, they do sound quite diffrent
this band sounds a lot like Chon. i personally think Chon is better but that's just my opinion. you should check them out, especially there old demo
will do, thanks : )
Criatividade, disciplina, treino, inspiração, suavidade, feeling tudo numa música só affff q coisa linda afff mesmo hugs from brazil aff mesmo como pode uma coisa dessa afff
aff
Os caras sao fenomenais
eu vejo teus vídeos de DS e é muito esquisito ver um youtuber curtindo e comentando coisas em comum pdkewodpkewopdwe
@BlackSH0veldeath yes(sim) 😁
Still so speechless at how beautifully composed this song is, my gosh..
I remember finding this video years ago, way before the New Levels New Devils era started and this video had hardly a million views, now I come back and it's at 3.3 million, this song got me hooked into this band and they've became one of my all time favorite bands!
Impassion and Champagne were the songs that got me into Polyphia when I stumbled across them back around late 2014. I love the melodic nature of Polyphia that they've kept through all of their various evolutions over the years and the drastically different styles they've had with each album. It's astonishing how they can change so much and still have that same feel to them that makes them so unique to me. I know some people miss when they made music in this style like from Muse and Renaissance, and I can see why. But while I agree that they had a special sound back then, I also appreciate their new music and love it equally if not more depending on the song and I think it's for the best that they branched out to explore their sound and create new music that can broaden the horizons of listeners they already have as well as attract new listeners. I think it's enough that we have the music they created back then in this style, and every other iteration they've created along the way. It would probably become boring after a while if all they ever released were songs that sounded exactly like just another extension of Muse or Renaissance. I hope Polyphia continues to explore their own sound and pave out more and more unique soundscapes for us to appreciate in the future, they have yet to ever truly disappoint me. Love you Polyphia.
Gotta give credit where credit is due: these dudes are riding on the back of that metal pail. Give it the respect it deserves.
I MISS THIS POLYPHIA STYLE, WE ALL WANT MOAR! BRING BACK THE HEAVY HEAVY
Agreed!
+jay hundley Disagreed, I prefer their new stuff.
Nope. Old Stuff >>> New Stuff.
YEAH THE HEAVY HEAVY, I ENJOY THE HEAVY HEAVY
I love this style of playing out of all of their stuff but I can really get into champagne.
This video always takes me back. Really awesome to see how far they’ve come since then. I couldn’t have guessed what they were gonna sound like all this time later from watching this. Just shows that your art will evolve as time goes on in ways you can never expect. Forever stoked for these guys.
Im so glad i randomly clicked on this, your music is so calm yet heavy ^u^
this song has the best of both worlds and that is why its my fav
Nice this never gets old
My buddy showed me this video when it came out. Listen to them ever since. A lot of guitar players I meet know these guys and they’re not even into this music scene. It’s good to see all influences appreciate good music.
2019 and still enjoying this Masterpiece 👌🏻
this is the most beautiful instrumental I've ever heard and I love my music all around. i'm usually not the kind to get all emotional or like mystical I guess you could say, but I felt like that song was singing to me through feelings absolutely astounding. keep it up.
If you like instrumental guitar works, listen to Eric Johnson, Intervals, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert. Those are to name a few :p
ahhhh yes I've sampled a little of each. I would have to say Paul Gilbert is my fav. of those. Very nice selection good sir!
check out marco sfogli :)
Check out Angel Vivaldi, Animals As Leaders, Sithu Aye and Plini if you haven't. Oh and don't forget Cloudkicker! : )
Check out Paul Wardingham. He's a solo musician from Australia. Incredible.
The solos on these are still one of my fave solos ever
Discovered you about two month back, listened to everything ............ and this is by far the best of your material.
This is sonic perfection.
Absolutely sublime.......if jesus played guitar, he'd be gutted because he didnt write this tune.
So I'm going to go against the crowd and say that I actually really enjoyed this! I think that it does a really good job of comparing technical skill and melody together; however, there are better amalgamations of this in songs like the ones by rob scallon, either way I liked this a lot!
This is my all time fav Polyphia tune!!!
I really miss this guys... so perfect music :'(
I never knew that Kylo Ren was such a good Guitarrist, the force may be with him
I can never get enough of Polyphia.
So musically captivating yet you all make it look so simple, and it is NOT. I can't wait for a new album, love you guys, keep rockin'
4:10 to 4:19 has got to be one of my favorite moments in music ever, and that is saying quite a lot. And i would also like to remind viewers/listeners that the members of Polyphia are in fact kids. They're writing will mature along with themselves. So cut them a bit of slack. :P
You were damn right
Damn this comment aged so well
Aged way too well, are you a time traveller?
You were right, they're so different now.
confirming once more from the future this comment aged like FINE wine
Everyone joking but this is straight up amazing.
Bro who tf is joking? Polyphia is huge!
@@brianwilson8088 this was before they blew up, and everyone was making fun of his nose.
Still my all time favorite song from anyone. Been listening to this every day for the past year. Cheers to the next year :)
I see TH-cam has led me to more awesome music. Keep killing it, guys.
I love Polyphia, have followed them since the very beginning and love everything they do, especially how they play in standard and drop D tuning. THAT SAID, every time I watch this video when they looked so young I always think "did their parents just not let them play any lower than drop D" lol.
well...going through their old stuff... quite fantastical...happy there are no words...sometimes theyre just not needed
I sure do miss this sound from you alls music
21 year old kids writing masterpieces. such good guitars and drums in this band even way back then
The new stuff is unbelievably awesome but this is just music for your soul.
What does one practice to get like this? Scales? Modes? Sacrifices to gods unknown?
Serious amount of dedication. Practice makes perfect. You either got it in ya or you dont plain and simple lol
Everything
Good Teachers
and eating babies
A blunt and a small amount of music theory (a lot of theory)
That was so sick...You guys shred out of this world!
Scott’s playing is just so niceeee 🔥
This was the first polyphia vid I ever saw. It’s been almost 10 years already?
Watching this after the Ego Death vid is crazy
This is by far the best song you guys played. Those long runs and bends are so beautiful. You guys are a very talented group and very lucky to be able to make amazing music with each other. Hope to hear more from Polyphia.
as an older guitar player this gives me hope there's young people actually learning and playing the instrument at a high level instead of spinning records and looping samples
I remember seeing this when it first came out. Told all my friends about them and to check it out. They all had no interest in this type of music and that was that. Now fast forward to 2019 they are like "dude have you heard of polyphia, they are so good"
Uh yea guys.. I showed you them XD
haha same like when im telling my friends to check out ichika lol
@@obicross hes crazy good too, probably one of the best, love his short songs and his appearance on the song "death note" which was one of the only songs on that album to use 8 strings, not surprised lol.
Same lmao
so cool
I betcha they still think this song blows, so you showing them it meant nothing.
This be my favorite go to song to get pumped up
I see a lot of comments about lack of structure. listen to their soloing! they are following chord progressions with some very well placed accidentals and believe it or not the emotion behind this song is very powerful. you would know that if any of you actually studied musical theory and polyrhythms. learn a little of accenting notes and actually how to use your modes and maybe you can make a statement about there structure but once you actually do. you'll see that there is structure in every last solo and chord progression. if there wasn't then the timing would be off and it truly would sound like a jumbled mess.
You haven't heard polyrhythms until you've heard elvin jones or tony williams
The fuck are you talking about accidentals this song is in the key of A never goes out of it
in my defence when i wrote this i had no idea what i was talking about and was talking a bunch of shit i had a valid point but no place mentioning things i knew nothing about. i did my research learnt some shit and you are correct there are no accidentals. there you go. thanks for making me realize i was full of shit. carry on lol
NeVerFoRs4Ken OMG, thank you. It's so rare and refreshing to see somebody actually own up to and apologize for making an inane, uneducated comment about music (or anything else for that matter). I applaud your efforts to enlighten yourself and set things right. Now, if only the rest of the Internet would follow your example, this might be a pleasant place to hang out for a change. :D
Ash Ketchum & freaking Pigeot on guitar, boys & girls...
... Just kidding, it's all love Scott
Tim not Scott
Pidgeot = Scott.. I was apologizing to Scott haha
Ash Ketchum = Tim
Lol oh okay.
I'm sorry MintahDrums I got a little confused there. Now I get it
gotta catch em all
Polyphia so much swag
I remember this when I was in highschool. I was addicted to this song and this was the one that trained my shredding. Wish I still remember how to play the whole song.
I LOVE POLYPHIA! They're awesome^.^
*They're
K Krazz -.-
***** what
***** ugh i fixed it happy?
Lol
You can tell, Scott really nose what he's doing
daaaaaaamn
+GHLinkinmanuT bruh no didn´t
He could pull a new advanced technique and tap with his nose.
***** Rosewoodpecker they call him
actually Scott's playing makes Nosense
So this is where everything begun... ! I just met the band 1 week ago and I'm obsessed...damn
4:15 awesome scene with the cord laying in the water...dunno just a good image to me.
0:28 HA-HA !!!! I finally caught Tim Henson playing a "Boomer Bend" !!!
*Evil laugh...*
Love
Those drums really take this over the moon imo
This is still my favorite song by them
Im more impressed with that area theyre in. it looks beautiful there
I think it's Dallas, Texas?
They're at the Winspear Opera House in downtown Dallas' arts district. Very cool area.
Its Dallas Texas they're a local band here. They're growing so fast.
This is one of the only songs ever that I have not stopped coming back to since it was released years ago!
I saw this video many years ago. 😔 I've been practicing almost every day since.
Same brother. That Scott final solo is special in my heart. It took 3 years to learn
The bends at 4;10 WOW
4:10
La técnica que tiene Tim Henson es increíble.
But can they play Smoke on the water?
LOL
Sandarpan hhahaha
But they can't write songs like smoke on the water or other classic rock songs that's the difference
+Sandarpan so done haha
No, the real question is, can they Djent?
They were still babies. Cant believe this is 7 years old
And it's still a killer song too
2013....what a year. I was 15 at the time! Great memories and this song just strikes it rich for me man! godbless.
Screw feeling and emotion. Just gets in the way of good accurate playing.
lawl
Woooww what?
the best music has the best balance of feel/emotion and technicality
I still blast the EP daily. I just can’t fuck with their new shit. This was polyphia to me.
Awesome song!! you are great musicians
Looking at the changes from this Polyphia to NLND is crazy
Nice homage to Guthrie Govan's 'Fives' @ 0:58.
Didn't even notice! Guthrie Govan is a god on the guitar, I swear. Looks like Jesus anyways.
I was thinking the same thing
To this date from when this ep was released this solo is just beyond beautiful, brings tears to my eyes
Watching all of the reactions to “playing god” today has me wanting to binge through their entire discography, so I can hear the growth between each of them in real time and all at once.. Even now, I had forgotten they had some chugs in this one and I really don’t remember much about “Muse”, it’s been awhile since I last listened to it. This’ll be fun. ✌🏻
*Early 2010’s: instrumental prog metal
*Now, 2022, all in one song: Latin/classical/jazz on two soundhole-less acoustics with the nylons and the second half bussin’ with the bossa nova groove. 🤤🤌🏻
*edit* because I just remembered that Champagne and Aviator were both on Muse 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻 (duh) so I remember that album now. Champagne still a whole bop.
Holdin it down for plano!
:-)
TEXAS
You guys have an awesome taste for Metal. THIS IS MUSIC!
I will never get over how sexy that perfect vibrato is at 3:12. Well done, Scott.
Incoming solo of epic proportion 3:12
Scottie's honestly been my favorite part of this band.
Song is really well-made. the guitar tone in here is about perfect. And the guitars used for the video are gorgeous as well. People just don't appreciate a maple neck anymore.
The one dude with the white guitar is like a real life Hey-Arnold.
LOL
genre: alarm clock
+frysebox1 Hahahahaha!!
+frysebox1 I don't get it :(
+SadisticKillerXx
Because it's a seemingly completely random composition without any musical direction, made even more painstakingly clear by the complete lack of articulation in the playing (sure there are plenty of vibratos and bends here but they come across as a poor imitation rather than something genuine). Also the tone is as neutral and "artificial" as it gets. So yes, pretty much just random pitches and grooves, much like an alarm clock gone haywire.
For their age they have great technical ability, but they've seemingly missed the whole point of (GOOD) music, which is to tell something through an abstract yet tangible medium. I love "proggy" stuff, but there has to be SOME sort of order or clear intent behind it otherwise it's completely indistuingishable from what a random note generator could make, hence losing the most important aspect of it all, namely the musiciality.
This is coming from a guy who is into everything from classical music to death metal, and most of the stuff inbetween that.
Oh, ok, I still like it tho :D
ha
its so easy to fall asleep watching this coming from any song off alpha & omega, or any AAL album
I don't really get when I hear that this has no emotion. Do you hear those leads? The double bass is perfect too. And those bends. Insane.
Technical skill with little comprehension of melody. 3/10
Totally agree.
I feel like they have great grasp on melody. Recurring themes, emotional builds in their solos, with solid rhythmic ideas (pretty sure they we're thinking of a vocalist taking the lead when it comes to melody in several parts). The dude with the blue guitar comes in bluesy (which, I'm sure you'd agree, is highly emotional/melodic field of music) at the right spots. It's their phrasing of seemingly simple melodic ideas that sounds mature as hell. 3/10 is lowballing them, BIG time.
3/10 lol......idiot.
The only thing that I'd say is that I'd like more melodic solos, I love those sweeps and picking, but there's a moment that I want it to be totally melodic, but it isn't a 3 out of 10 for me . . .for me it's an 8, because of what I just said (it's only my opinion, or maybe my taste) and the drums, where the snare is a bit lost. Greetings from URUGUAY!
I totally respect you're opinion, but as a fan of Polyphia I gotta say. If a playthrough vid of theirs gets over half a million views and nearly 10k likes, they're doing something right xD.
I love that they know when to flood the riff with notes and when to keep it chill.
I like the colour of the bluish guitar
Damn I miss these days...
I love when Tim finishes the final solo and then looks right like " Next."
Absolutely.... its like he realizes "Holy fuck, that was beautiful"
Ima keep it real with u chief, I miss the fuck out of this Polyphia
This song is for anyone who thinks metal is always dark and scary.
Yo, that last solo was the most amazing thing I've ever seen.
And he just... shrugs it off. No big deal.
Closing in on 1million views, nice. When I first saw this video it was around 300k. I am sure around 120 of those views are mine. Love this track.
same here dude at least 100 views have to be me as well xD
