I don’t believe musical success is predicated solely on an award but, if this record don’t win a Grammy I’ll lose my mind.
same bru😭😭
You won't lose anything if the record does not win a Grammy award.
Not a chance because Grammys are just about Pop and Mumble Rap now.
@@pmaster1173 polyphia is inspired a lot by trap and hiphop ie "mumble rap" beats. there is good shit out there, if you search for it, beyond the mainstream
The guy on the horn is Ivan from Brasstracks who have 3 Grammy's under their belt
This is a moment in history for guitar-centric music for sure. Stoked for a younger generation to get into Vai and for some of the older cats to broaden their horizons and spin some Polyphia. Great reaction, bro!
"If you feel music the way I do". I feel music EXACTLY like you do!! Watching this reaction was absolute joy for me. It was uncanny hearing someone explain my own emotions and feelings through their own experience, but just....wow. You react in the same way I do at the exact same spots. This piece is an absolute masterpiece, and I'm more and more amazed every time I hear it. Instant Classic is spot on.
As a life long student of jazz music and guitar, these guys have made me give it up and go back to playing with Play-Doe as a hobby.
So glad Scott is getting more of the spot light. His parts were always my favorite. Even on their first EP
Hey guys thanks for watching please drop a like on the way out
THere ya go.... oh wait did you mean "LIKE" the video"? lmao
Hey @POLO REACTS you should definitely check out Mike Dawes. He's a percussive fingerstyle guitar player from the UK. Pretty amazing dude. Watch Boogie Shred
Polo, you’re a gift to the Universe. Why? Because MOST music listeners stay in one lane, and you charge ahead, mind wide open, and full of enthusiasm and gratitude. Keep your head held up high, and love the world of true artists, more and more, day by day. Many, many thanks Polo.
It’s amazing how all those kids shred so hard and work so hard to create an amazing piece of work that is about as impressive as you could possibly get… then Steve vai comes in and pulls off the most memorable and cool parts of the song
💯 couldn't say it better
@@nazzify6417 I feel bad for you
Also, if you go back and besides rising up by floors the chair is seen with Tim sitting in it, then Scott on the 2nd floor then Steve on the 3rd floor.
never heard this one. Damn it was epic. Steve Kai is one of the greatest ever. def in my top 5 guitar gods. My personal favorite is Zakk Wylde (Black Label Society, and guitarist for Ozzy).
Thanks for reacting to this one - enjoyed it thoroughly.
So this is a subgenre of rock closest resemblance of "Progressive Rock" (prog-rock for short). If Metallica is the king of Metal, then the band Rush would be the king of prog-rock.
It's a jazz influenced rock mesh. Notice how (like traditional jazz), each member stands for recognition for 15 seconds of solo play. Very stylistic of a free-form solo jazz-style that you see/hear in ensembles.
One of the biggest differences between "rock" and "prog-rock" is the stylistic changes throughout a song - unique time signatures, changes in time-signatures, and change-up in tempo, etc. A whole 6 minute song in prog-rock would sound like 4 or 5 different songs by its end.
I knew this video was going to be loaded with "stank face" because mine still makes the same face every time I hear it. Two of those drum accents just leave my jaw hanging open and I'm not a drummer. The guitars are an absolute feast for the ears with three of the greatest players ever to touch rosewood/ebony and then you have Clay on the bass tastefully slamming it down and keeping everything rooted at the same time. This is a magnum opus as far as I am concerned and all who took part in it should be very proud of their work.
I never thought my love for polyphia, Tom segura and Harry Mack would create a venn diagram with you being the being the thing that intersects them all! 😂. Discovering new layers to you my guy. Pretty sure we’d hang and be friends if we lived in the same place
🙏
My youngest son just turned me onto this group 2 months ago.
Looooove them. So talented. What can you say about Steve ?? Rock God !!
Oh, ok you have obviously found Polyphia...the Drummer is Off the Hook ..they all Kill it
I’ve been shuffling through reactions for some days now to help digest this song, and yours is great, only other person to like the drums so much. I love how much work he puts in on the cymbals and how much he rests to let the music speak. Thanks!
It’s fun to watch how the guitar players almost reference his chops with some of the percussion they use in their playing, like thanks for constantly setting us up! He’s such a good fit to this style.
All four musicians add to the percussive depth of the music, even Vai does in his own way at the end.
So much to say about this song but not many people I know will get it or want to hence the ramble. Thanks again!
Bands like this are what we need.
"you can focus on Scott, clay...." Homie, I'm focused on that triangle moving desk ornament thing. 🤣🤣
I been watching Vai since 1987. I'm such a big Vai fan I even like his protégé's. You didn't Mention Steve Vai helped Ibanez guitar company create the 7 string electric guitar, or that they been making one of a kind custom guitars for him ever since including the "Hydra". If you have not seen "Teeth of the Hydra" yet react to that please... PLEASE? Its a one of a kind guitar and a song written specifically to show off what you can do with that guitar. The guitar even looks like a monster you should do the vid "Teeth of the Hydra" on Halloween!
For The Love Of God is probably Vai's most emotional piece if you are interested in hearing more from him. Never have I heard more emotion displayed through guitar work.
Steve Vai is also responsible for discovering and spotlighting Devin Townsend who is one of the most diverse and dynamic metal musicians of all time.
Great song composition, great technical ability, great video direction, GREAT REACTION. I watch a lot of these reactions and I think you'll be hitting 250k subs sooner than you think. Keep at it, man. You're doing stuff the others just can't.
Absolutely Love these artists!❤ Had the chance to see both in separate concerts Vai in 1989 and Polyphia in 2023, MIND BLOWN!WONDERFUL reaction. Much Love, Peace and Prayers to You and Your Family.❤
Great reaction man. You most definitely "get it" you touched upon some great points. Love this song and I'm glad it is getting the recognition it deserves. One word, masterpiece.
Polo your vids are killer man keep up the solid work
Brother Man, You've just made me a fan of this Band. I knew if Steve Via but had no knowledge of this Band. My first time seeing this and it was mind Blowing and orgasmic at the same time.
You might recognize Steve Vai as the soloist in the Halo 2 Theme Song... 😎
I really appreciated your reaction, pausing to comment and adding your actual thoughts and feelings. Please don’t stop! And I also happen to agree with your comments, even after 50 listenings. It just keeps getting better!
I've known of Polyphia since they were in high school. My ex-girlfriend also had class with them. They can play with anyone in the world. That solo was written for Steve, don't let it overshadow the talent of the band, because they can play at the same skill level. I remember when they were just kids and they were known for their dedication to practicing alone in a room for so many hours and sessions.
They are masters who have put in the thousands of hours of work.
Loved how I could tell this was a raw genuine reaction! Great video truly!
Spine tingling…. best description i’ve heard so far. Loved your reaction and take on the song. Scott is THE MAN. 🤘🏼
Loved this reaction, keep these vids coming!
Wonderful to share the particular excitement of listening to Polyphia. ❤
I just heard about this band recently. You know how you're just scrolling youtube and see a bands name and think, how do you pronouce that ? so you click on it to see lol now Im hooked! Thanks for the reaction👍♥️
Great reaction and analysis. Well said!
I first heard them on Playing God and I must say they blow me away everytime I listen to them.
You definitely should check Chimera. Absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm glad you mentioned his guitar, because that guitar that he's using in this video and a few other videos just got a signature deal, it's his second signature guitar.
The old style of guitar you were talking about that he was playing in the metal part is just a form of heavy metal sweep picking. And you're 100% right you barely ever see it anymore, because most bands for some strange reason got rid of that mid song lead playing, which is a shame because a good deal of the time it was the best part of the songs.
Hell yes great react!
How do they keep getting better..
You said it all bro!
I feel blessed to be alive and witness something like this.
Chills. More chills. Then chills.
I love how everyone has their polyphia face (including the band members)
Great reaction Polo. Nice to know I'm not the only one with permanent stank face when I watch them 😄
I'mma just say this much, I love this band to death. I was able to see Vai during a Zappa Plays Zappa concert in Dallas, and it was on par with Seeing Rush live on their Clockwork Angels tour. Polyphia is next. Fucking hard to get the time to see anything live these days, ya know?
I’ve seen these guys live , it was an intense performance, they didn’t miss a beat or note.
God polyphia are incredible 🔥🖤
You should check out some of his playing Tim does on his channel. He's just cold with it. Can't deny it.
If you could do a reaction to Euphoria by Polyphia, I fell like you'd enjoy that song too!
This video is what is called an eargasim.
God Damn I say God Damnnnn gettin it for real
Oh Hell YEAH! I’ve listened to Vai since he started with Frank Zappa at age 20. So cool that the young guitarists collab with Vai and compliment each other so well and had a great time. 🤘🏼🎧🤟🏼
Yea this song is legendary and will go down as something created and meant to be in history of rock
Check out Polyphia "40oz" killer Best Base Line yet, do a reaction to it.
Hey Bro, Steve vai is a legend, react to teeth of Hydra, i wont give any spoilers, Just feel the hability, iconic guitarrist
6:40 100% I look like I have Tourette’s when I listen to Polyphia lol
Awesome reaction! If you like this kind of virtuosity you should check out Tendinitis my Jason Richardson and Luke Holland.
Going to bump for this 😃
Would love to see you react to Bloodbath off this album with Chino!! keep it up you're killin it man!
Would love to see a collab with polyphia and JID or Kendrick
I actually love that a lot of Polyphia's music has hints of inspirations from beats commonly found in hip hop. Kendrick yould be cool to see featuring with them. But I've secretly been wishing they would do a surprise collab with Tech N9ne for forever!
Will you be reacting to anymore polyphia? I've been dying for another one of your reactions 😢
Your mic quality makes me feel safe
Song man of constant sorrow. Go way back if you like blue grass. I believe this is original artist. Ralph Stanley.
Check out some Frank Zappa to hear Steve Vai.
You should react to Nightwish Ghost Love Score Live At Wacken.
The shape? That’s sort of an explorer.
Loved your reaction. Since I heard Ego Death, my playlist only has 1 song left on it.
But if you're going out of your comfort zone and try new things, honestly, go "all the way" man and get yourself a taste of some good classical music. Can't advise anything else than the godfather of all music himself : JS Bach.
I mean it hides most of what they are doing with their hands.
Check out my fav instrumental band, Toska!
For the love of God is vai's signature song.
Steve Vai - "For The Love Of God" / SteveVaiHimself
ruclips.net/video/9IrWyZ0KZuk/видео.html
If you aren't stank-face for the entire song... that's a YOU prob.
Love your review, but the transparency on the video sucks!
To me its kakofonic, a bit overdone, crazy talented, but they want to show it all in one song.
Totally ruined the drop and didnt go back 0/10
You are pausing to much
