It's so cool to see these play-throughs because I don't hear all the details when I listen to the song first. When I go back to the songs afterwards it's a whole new experience. You guys are incredible.
Some of the guitar notes get lost in the mix under Courtney's voice, mainly in the chorus. Plus the guitar volume level is different in the song mix which also has something to do with it. It's bound to happen, but that's the explanation. It blew my mind when I heard the guitar on the playthrough vs the actual song. That's why I love these instrumental playthroughs so much.
@@ZepyhrLight Northlane, Invent, animate, TesseracT, Periphery, Sleep Token, Skyharbor and silent planet all do this very well. There is many more but this is just out of the top of my head.
the intro and the breakdown are very meaty indeed, in fact so meaty, we're talking double pattie for sure, and the crisply toned delicate ambient textures are the exact ingredients and perfect filling needed to make this, one hell of a tasty burger, and I think Mike knows it...my compliments to the chef 🍔👌
Some thing so cool about this guitar work. Minus the vocals it sounds like an entirely different song. Then when you hear both together it sounds magical.
One of the best guitarists in the game. Shows technical skill and music theory knowledge without going “hurur I play fast lol” and just sweeps all song
Love all the live MIDI switching! I also only just now noticed that cheeky little Pitch block being popped in and out during the chorus. It was tripping me out because while playing along to it I could clearly hear that change from F to Eb, but you were staying on the open low F. Then I noticed that little MOD block light popping on and off for that one section. Clever!
Mike's knob discipline is on another level. We're witnessing the future of top tier prog-metal guitarists and i think that everything who is looking to make some difference in this genre should look up to Mike.
As a musician listening to this instrumental it is absolutely one of the most wholesome and vibrant tracks I've ever heard. Astonishing work my guy 🤟🏼😎
I found you guys about a week ago and I'm mad at myself for not hearing you sooner . This track has been on a constant rotation in my playlist . I hope you can tour again because I'm most definitely going to see you .
How have you guys only just become really well known?! You're absolutely insane and your talent blows me away! Cant wait for even more from Spiritbox 🤘
Thanks for this! Kind of embarrassing, but when I tried to figure out the track I thought: Wow, that's really low, so I tuned down my 8 String a lot! :D You instantly became one of my most favorite bands, btw! Stay safe!
I'm not your friend, you made me go and buy a 7 string just so I can learn this song, jeeeez thanks!! Haha absolutely love the incredible work guys, the most solid band imo at the moment!!! Awesome! Can't wait to catch you guys when your next in the UK
Honestly have to say, I am an electronic fan. Mostly Drum and Bass, haven’t heard an entire metal album all the way through since Meshuggah’s Chaosphere. Way back when. I came across ‘Hurt You’ a couple days ago and decided to give the rest of the album a listen… I haven’t heard a band with as much range, uniquely beautiful sounds or lead vocals as I have with you guys. Your band is truly unique and I have no doubt that you are on track to reshape the core of this music scene. You all deserve everything coming to you! Don’t change a THING!!!!
That was...AWWWWESOME!! Great tone Mike! Funny, I was just about to look up what you used for gear. Now I see. Sounds amazing!! Love what you guys are doing!! Hopefully tours will be back soon!!
BAH-DO-DO-DO-DOUGH-B-BOW-B-BOW..BAH-DO-DO-DO-DOUGH-B-WOOO-B-WOOO
oh true perfect description
Good tabs right there
say this out loud and you will laugh everytime
"mr krabs is a robot!?"
Exactly

@@Chugs4Serotonin that's the mansplaination ;)
@@TheLukeGrey you're toxic lmfao
@@TheLukeGrey really?
Michael and Courtney compliment each other so well. the level of chemistry in this band is rare. glad i found you guys 🤘
Well they are married to each other so...
@@LouSassles *Looks at divorce rate* soooo... what's your point? They do indeed seem lucky.
The cleans have an almost retro sound that I am loving
Allan Holdsworth ish
Reminds me of a lot of Synthwave music tbh
Novelists vibe to me
Listen to 'The Midnight'
This song would be praised as an amazing instrumental track alone. Now add Courtneys vocals and you get a masterpiece. Thanks Mike for this gem!
Seriously my favorite guitarist and musician
Love all the pitch shifting in these songs. So cool, what modern tech can do for songwriting.
2:51 you sunk my battleship.
Tuning for the breakdown is drop Q right?
drop C is working XD
I feel that drop q though
@@Flodrums26130 i think some of their songs are in drop f or drop f# with just uses a c and c# on their 6string so
Hahahahhaah Drop Q
Is he using a pitch shifter for it?
I'm a simple man. I see Mike holding a guitar. I watch. I like
God damn true
Im a simple man. I see your name avatar. I like
I like and then watch)
The atmosphere this band creates is unparalleled in metal at the moment 🔥
Northland
Northlane or invent animate
@@ZepyhrLight nah
@@NotAnemia nah? Yessir they both have atmospheric elements this band shares
@@ZepyhrLight Northlane, Invent, animate, TesseracT, Periphery, Sleep Token, Skyharbor and silent planet all do this very well. There is many more but this is just out of the top of my head.
That chorus riff gives my brain a massage

so THAT'S how he's doing it! I just assumed a momentary pitch pedal or that I was going crazy lol
when he played the
0!-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-0-0-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-0!-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-0-0-1-1-1-1-(4)(4)(4)(4)
I felt that
Oh damn that tone tho!
That chorus is so fucking clean, such a unique song
That chorus is just the perfect mix of heavy and catchy
The riff god is back!
Easily the coolest slide harmonics I've ever heard.
Due to everything going on in the song you can overlook how beautiful the guitar riffs are behind it.. amazing job!
Man, two years ago, and I'm still coming back to hear this. That heavy tone is monstrous.
That chorus riff will go down in history as one of the sickest of all time.
The quiet beat underneath the verses is really chill. I never really noticed.
That pitch-shifted section is sick.
And you've got lots of space either side,
just in case you have to tune it manually ^^
Good luck physically tuning down to C and having it be stable hahaha
@@robbiedozier2840 Good point. lol
But I'm not sure I could really hear the note in a live setting anyway. not without an octaver at least...
that breakdown is so simple but its so fucking good man my god, the contrasts from light to dark are what makes it fit so well to me
the layers you get to hear so clearly in the play-through is so dope
pretty stoked this popped up in my feed and I clicked on it, from not ever hearing spirit box i'm pretty much addicted now
So cool! Spiritbox will be the next big thing. Keep up the awesome work. You will make it!
I love his style so much.
Probably my absolute favorite playthrough
this videos makes me love this song even more
such a monsterous tone!
Hearing and seeing it this way adds a whole new appreciation for your craft. Great work!
Mike's knob discipline is on another level. We're witnessing the future of top tier prog-metal guitarists and i think that everything who is looking to make some difference in this genre should look up to Mike.
So good. I could go to a show just to listen to you play all the hits by yourself.
Amazing tone, amazing song and not the least an amazing band!
Thank you, we love you
his guitar style is just amazing. love the bendy notes, and the creativity he has.
Been wanting to see your play through of this! Thanks for uploading!
Stupid good, great job Michael. This is so fun to play, thanks for that!!
Insane riffs, tone and rhythm... just so good
It’s just a beautiful soundtrack. Been listening almost every day now for a couple of weeks
3:22 Them Feels
As a musician listening to this instrumental it is absolutely one of the most wholesome and vibrant tracks I've ever heard. Astonishing work my guy 🤟🏼😎
The lundgrens with the Kemper is a nasty sound. I love it! Keep up the amazing work!
Just discovered Spiritbox recently and this is their best track ever🤘!

I found you guys about a week ago and I'm mad at myself for not hearing you sooner . This track has been on a constant rotation in my playlist . I hope you can tour again because I'm most definitely going to see you .
How have you guys only just become really well known?! You're absolutely insane and your talent blows me away! Cant wait for even more from Spiritbox 🤘
I hope there will also be a Bass and Drums play through. Love the freakin bass. Awesome playthrough altogether 🔥
I loved watching this band evolve out of nowhere
I liked the video when there was an ad. AND WATCHED THE AD. I'm hungry after all this hard work, whew.
Mike, you are always tasteful & melodic in your playing. Wonderfully composed per usual.
Really helps in breaking down the composition...thanks Mike.
That guitar is beautiful!
So sick dude! I actually just found Spiritbox and am a huge fan already. Keep up the great works guys and gal!
this is the most insane guitar riffs I've ever heard
The chorus riff is completely intoxicating
Thank you Mike
I can listen to this all day, such a masterpiece.
Thanks for this! Kind of embarrassing, but when I tried to figure out the track I thought: Wow, that's really low, so I tuned down my 8 String a lot! :D You instantly became one of my most favorite bands, btw! Stay safe!
2:49
That’s a sick guitar and arguably song of the year , had this track on repeat since I heard it ! All the best
This is so beautiful...
Thank you Mike & Spiritbox 🤘
The breakdown is chugtastic
Great guitar player. Different style and take on riffs. Very nice brotha🤙

I'm not your friend, you made me go and buy a 7 string just so I can learn this song, jeeeez thanks!! Haha absolutely love the incredible work guys, the most solid band imo at the moment!!! Awesome! Can't wait to catch you guys when your next in the UK
I'm hunting down a 7 string too to play these songs
Absolutely great song, tone, guitar, mix etc!

THIS IS SO SICK. Damn I love this song.
mMMMMmmmMmmmM, loving the atmosphere and space that is created in these songs.
You are easily one of my favorite guitarists. your composition is always beautifully special. Thank you for existing 😭🖤
