That bass solo is just evil it's one of the best I've ever heard
I can understand the hip hop feel. Tim's favorite genre of music is hip hop, or rap. I believe the influence for this song was a Jaden Smith song. So the hip hop feel is actually there. It's also in the way he creates riffs.
The hell are you talking about? Jaden smith did not influence Tim Henson, how naïve are you?
@@tipsysmichigander6483 The actual song was breakfast by Jaden Smith. He says this himself.
Guessing you never seen talk about making this song. So I'm not gonna take this personally, just a person argument from ignorance.
@@fotwen Again, how naïve are you? Jaden rarely writes his back tracks or even lyrics he has very little credibility to his tracks. Melvin Lewis - Omarr Rambert do mostly. Those would be the influences here.
I never once said it wasn't breakfast.
I said Jaden did not influence him.
@@tipsysmichigander6483 so what does that make wrong about my comment? It's clearly a Jaden Smith song. Like i stated.
You must have misread what the original comment was.
@@fotwen You're crediting the wrong person. Simple.
Jason Richardson & Luke Holland "Tendonitis"
Unprocessed - Real is how you sing over something like this
Exactly
Agree
This is kind of mathcore-esque though, Real isn't at all. The beat is very outlined in Real.
I know what you're trying to say, I'm just pointing out the obvious I guess haha.
@@Djitterbug I honestly think goat is more beat outlined than real. Polyphia songs from the latest 2 albums are hip hop inspired and that's undeniable. Goat also has the 3rd bar of the main riff which literally plays off the riff coming in late and hitting harder once it syncs up again.
Yes, but it only works when you write the instrumentation to allow space for vocals.
I'm surprised no one has brought up CHON.
Fluffy
Perfect Pillow
Story
Bubble Dream
facts, I find Grow a lot more interesting than Homey mind as a whole.
also Plini
🙄
Producer - Hey Tim, how many harmonics do you want to put in the song?
Tim - Yes.
Tim - how many harmonics do you want to put in the song?
Tim - Yes.
ftfy
They write their songs via programming/DAW first, similar to what hiphop producers do. They then learn the notes on the guitar/drums/bass. Very unique approach
I think you guys would really enjoy Reptile by the band Periphery. It’s got amazing guitars. Quite a long one though. Cheers from the US guys 🤘🏻
Josh derp I personally like The Walk, Buttersnips, Ji, and Scarlet the most out of the songs they have. I just feel like Reptile is the one they’d enjoy the most. Just my opinion though
@Josh derp lol provocateur.
@Josh derp reptile is my 6th favorite Periphery song. Virgin your opinion vs Chad my opinion
Strangers Things or The Bad Thing are better intros I reckon.
Yessss guys, thanks! Can never get enough of Polyphia! :D
Gentlemen... I'm really sorry, but to even suggest putting any sort of vocals over this is blasphemy. Come on, this tune is incomparable and just perfect as is. Also, they tried to get a vocalist because a Lable asked them to and they hated it because it limited their artistic capacity. Eventually, they got signed by RockNation(Jay-Z's Label) earlier this year without the "crutch of vocals"(as they said). LP 4 is due to come out around November at the moment.
Two of their songs do ft vocalists though. One is "So Strange" ft Cuco on Vocals and the second is "Look But Don't Touch" ft. Lewis Grant on vocals. The band has also done a remix of Lalala by Y2k and BBNO$, which was one of the biggest songs of 2019.
Tim(guitar 1) does actually produce for a lot of rappers though bc rap is all him and Scott(guitar 2) listen to. Some notable tracks include "i feel 2 much" by Blackbear, "WYA" and "Feel It Coming" by Iann Dior, "Block" by Internet Money (ft. Trippie Redd and StaySolidRocky), and more. Not all of his co-writes/productions are credited from what I've seen, but I've heard him and others talk about them quite a bit.
I disagree tho, music is mostly subjective, and this piece isn't objectively perfect as it is. I personally "like" their songs but I think they could explore more stuff and vocals would help, and btw if they think that vocals limit their creative capacity or whatever that's fine but it just means that they didn't want to or weren't able to make something they liked with vocals... Obviously they could make crazy good music with some kind of vocal or something, they just don't and that's fine.
They asked, 'how would you even begin to put vocals over it?' Then begun having banter about the idea of it having vocals.
They didn't say, 'THIS NEEDS VOCALS ASAP-- WITHOUT VOCALS THIS SONG IS GARBAGE.'
Do you always just pretend to listen to people, then insert your opinion that has nothing to do with anything?
@@jonas8993 The blend of instruments combined with impeccable timing is what makes this song worthy of being called “GOAT”, and it sounds just as good live.
@@alwayzchillin0714 I didn't say the contrary, I'd agree with you, it's an amazing song, but if you read my comment you replied to, this wasn't my point
Some other bangers by polyphia
O.D
Look but dont touch
The worst
Goose
Saucy
40oz
Icronic
Finale and Euphoria and also everything mentioned so far and literally everything else
I always recommend Nasty
@@JuanDiaz-zw7cc same. That song got me hooked to Polyphia
the fact that passionflower was your last review means im definitly going to enjoy this channel lol. gained a sub here, gonna enjoy this ride lol
The instruments are so vocal, you need no vocals on this song...
If anyone here appreciates polyphia then I highly recommend nasty or yas. Polyphia is hands down my favorite band. Get into it bois
Second nasty
I really like OD and The W6rst. I love learning Polyphia's guitar riffs though they're so fun to play!!
@@interestingcuber8591 i know man I can't play much yet. Only intros and hooks to about 5 or 6 songs
They started off more Metalcore Instrumental and eventually moved more towards hip hop. I think the drummer have had a lot to with that personally. "Yas" is another great track of theirs
Shadow of Intent - The Heretic Prevails
Perfect for the week.
That or Gravesinger
Hands down one of the best deathcore songs written.
Polyphia are insane, I listen to them daily! 🔥🖤
after guitar week, listen to Sleep Token, the songs id suggest are, Jaws, higher, offering
Higher is one of my favorite songs in the last 10 years
Seconded!
The offering is my fav of those :)
It's got to be Higher IMO.
That drummer is just taking the piss with those runs! Love this song.
The looks of bafflement are priceless. You know these guys just couldn't make it through a full Miles Davis or Charlie Mingus record.
I get as much enjoyment out of these reaction videos as I do when I listen to any Polyphia track.
It’s always awesome watching people’s blank stare when they here goat for the first time lol
GOAT it’s like a scary lullaby!
“I’ve never heard something like that before..“. Well said.
I love the channel, the setuo reminds me of a commentator stand for a footie match
Love seeing 'normal' uk folk check stuff out, awesome!
Thanks for the video, more polyphia please
You need some Plini - "Paper Moon" in North America.
Great reaction btw and you've got yourselves a new subscriber 👍
Top-tier musicianship at its finest!
Love that band! Pure baby making music!
Polyphia O.D is nuts
guitar week must react: any guitar play through from tosin Abasi.
I’m 3 minutes in and I got a feeling these kind fellas don’t know what’s going on here. I play music, I “understand” this and the first time I heard it I was not only blown away, but confused. It’s fucking brilliant really.
this song was apparently inspired by Jaiden Smith (Will Smith’s kid), who made a song that the guitar riff was made from. i recommend watching Tim Hensons videos on it cause he is the one who plays these riffs so its good to know how he made them
They have said that a lot of pop music and hip hop does influence their style and of course Steve Vai.
First couple minutes their brains had to digest the brilliance of this song hahaha
TTNG are also a maths rock band, with also some complicated music and guitarwork, but manage to fit lovely vocals over it
Wintersun - sons of the winter and stars. It's a Finnish band and that song is so amazing
‘Majestic as a fucking gazelle’ 😂
it feels most like a Jazz piece, with each member of the band taking a solo to improv around the head.
1:54 Thanks, i was about to do it myself.
Lmao 🤣 As a guitarist who’s well versed in music theory from high school band playing the saxophone, it cracks me up to see this music going wooooooosh right over peoples’ heads
If music is going right over people's heads, thats on the musician. Or just a shifting difference in tastes. I actually think this stuff is going into more people's heads than usual since its more measured and groovy compared to the general bland guitar wankery we find from most bands
@@ddawg3230 i agree but that’s going to happen to just about anyone who doesn’t understand what is going on in the piece without an intimate knowledge of music theory. I truly love what Tim Henson does with every little sound & mechanic of his instrument. Everything is intentional and has its place in the song. Nothing is filler & it all flows together so well. I want to listen to this song on mushrooms. It would probably completely change my perspective on music as a whole
Love your reactions! Guitar week well I would love for you to react to a band called Liquid Tension Experiment which was a supergroup of sorts that consisted of 3/4 of the rhythm section of the legendary band dream theater. (the only difference being the amazing Tony Levin on bass!) it is instrumental but they have 2 incredible live performances that need to be viewed. The first is called “when the water breaks” live in LA. Now it’s crazy long at about 17 minutes so if you don’t want to do one that long then you could also do the song “Acid Rain” also live in LA. Both of these videos are some of the most unbelievable live performances I’ve seen. Cheers guys love what you’re doing!!!
I think you'd really have a great time with the song Aviator by Polyphia.
Nightmare is also a great one.
Extremely talented band.
Another suggestion for a good guitarist: Buckethead.
Soothsayer, Cavernous, Jordan, The Other Side of the Dark and Nottingham Lace are all fantastic tunes.
Good reaction lads. Since it's guitar week, you'd better do some Plini! Selenium Forest is my favourite song by far!
He joked about taking acid, but that's the condition I was in when I first heard this song
The vocalist reminds me of my dad.
He's not around?
Niiiiiice.
nice cfh tat, getcha pull brother.
For guitar week you have to do something by Rings of Saturn, Lucas Mann is their guitarist and he's an absolute god.
I recommend their song "The Husk" or "Pustules" from their latest album, "Gidim" but really any song by them would be suitable.
Love the videos BTW guys, keep it up!
🇯🇲 Respect
Love this song
gotta do a reaction to any Buckethead song (warning: they are weird)
suggestions:
- Soothsayer
- Nottingham Lace
- Whitewash
- Welcome to Bucketland
- Big Sur Moon
- Padmasana
i found myself just non stop listening to their stuff at times
Tim Henson is a MONSTER
I Built the Sky - Up into the Ether.
Effing awesome guitar score.
The guitarist recently made a video about the making of the song, and he said he tried to play it like a rapper. So you guys were on it with saying it sounded like a rapper could be on it.
only reason i didnt hit the like button is because its at 420 and i didnt wanna ruin it
You've done a lot of infant annihilator already, but since its guitar week you should watch the soil the stillborn guitar playthrough!
Damn dude, never heard the song before and called the hip hop beat after three seconds. Now that’s a proper musical ear.
I think that if your going to go down the rabbit hole O.D. Would be a good follow up
Over a few of your videos I've seen you guys like some talent on the instruments.
A band I think you'll like is the The Omnific. Australian instrumental band that only has 2 bass guitars and a drummer, definitely worth checking out.
Edit to add some songs,
Objets De Vertu
Kismet
Erin
3 great songs so get you started, can pick 1 of them as I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Their guitarists co wrote 1 babymetal's song called "brand new day", they also played the guitar part in that track, please react to that song. Nice reaction video btw.
Please react to Polyphia ft Jason Richardson- Aviator, it is an amazing collab between amazing guitar players!
Great tune & amazing musicians. On a similar instrumental vein though a bit heavier you should check out the song “Cafo” by Animals As Leaders
Oh if we are doing guitar week you gotta check out the real G.O.A.T. Buckethead has 300+ albums tho so it's easy to get lost whilst traveling the park. Soothsayer live is the classic easy intro. If you fancy something a little more unique try anything else live to begin more rabbit holes!
Please give Unprocessed - Real a listen! That shows how you sing over music in this style. It also features Tim Henson from Polyphia too
You guys need to listen to polyphia- nightmare and compare it to the artist the weekend song the Hills. When they play live they sample the weekend over the top of their chorus and it sounds insane!
For guitar work, check out Awakening by Unleash The Archers.
Polyphia - Look but don't touch has a vocal innit
Nice reaction! I think this makes it a good time for some mind blowing prog rock from Japan. Please check out Sokoninaru!! I recommend starting with Gou Ni Moyu, Tenohira De Odoru, or the new song Lament Moment.
You gotta check out Abandoned by Unprocessed. They're just as technical as polyphia but they add vocals to it too.
Do one on Look but don't touch-Polyphia
Vitalism Pegan Pt.2 PLEASE!!
For vocals I would imagine some sort of mix of punk, rock, hip-hop, rap & metal.
Like a harder, rougher version of Linkin Park.
Tendinitis by Jason richardson
More like three guys stare blankly
John Butler - Ocean
At some point you guys NEED to react to Steel Panther.
Should probably do some Jason Richardson. Steve vai. Guthrie govan & Paul Gilbert.
If your going down the polyphia rabbit hole start with an “old school” song. Aviator ft. Jason Richardson. It’s more of a metal sound.
Rings of Saturn - the husk
For some hip hop, try Watsky and Karmin - No Flex Zone 😀
Astronoid - Up and Atom
Experienced and technical
You guys like hip-hop? Ever heard of Sage Francis? Check out "Makeshift Patriot", "Escape Artist", or "Best of Times". That should get you started. Aesop Rock (not Aesop Rocky) is another one. "None Shall Pass" is one of my favorite tunes.
Good morning to you all, except Daz
Soothsayer by buckethead, you guys won't be disappointed
Holy crap your right. Dude I forgot I had soothsayer on my phone from like 2 years ago. That’s a Bangin 9 minutes
@@felineboat2799 it's an incredible 9 minutes, his tribute to his mother when she passed is 28 minutes long it's called hold me forever, amazing piece of music
Soothsayer, king james, carpal tunnel slug, final wars, brewer in the air, whitewash, so many to choose from the guy is talented
Why is it whenever someone listens to a song they immediately go "where's the words". I can't ever play music around anyone because the majority of what I listen to is instrumental smh
TesseracT-Hexes studio
Tim Henson and the other guitarist are amazing!
Please react to some songs by Plini,
These songs will not disappoint you!
Paper Moon
Cascade
Electric Sunrise
Look but Dont Touch by Polyphia is amazing. Basically you could just react to there stuff for all of guitar week
Fr though man. Tim henson is a legend.
u can react to Ichika Nito 10 levels of "I miss you"
React to Polyphia - Look But Don't Touch this one will fucking blow your mind m8!!
Polythia now
Sheer raw talent. You don’t need to put this into a genre and lyrics would be superfluous..that riff is widely considered to be one of THE riffs of the decade..they’re all amazing but Tim Henson I’d the goat! 😍
Please look at there new stuff (guitar week 2)?
A mod 😂😂
Yall should give "Perennial Agony" by Osiah a listen and react
React to od by polyphia, it's like goat. Polyphia has good songs, I have been listening for a while and they are great. But yea, listen to od
Would you guys react to blood orange by berried alive! just the guitar walkthrough
Guitar week you need Guthrie govan. Master guitar player
YOU GUYS FORGOT ABOUT HARRY MACK, HOW COULD YOU????
React to Tendinitis by Jason Richardson
