Always been a FOT fan, but havent always been a guitar player. Ive been playing for roughly 5 years now and Ive got to say Erak's originality is off the charts, creating melodic phrases with a 'metal' approach is tough.
I wish more famous guitarists did videos like this. i thought it was really interesting seeing how Thomas really plays the song. If anyone can tab his version out and send it to me, i'd really appreciate it.
Erak has been known to teach people here and there. There's one other person I'm thinking of, I think they tabbed out one of his songs, cause he taught her (I think?)
the only person comparable to this guy is jimi hendrix in my opinion. just their sheer natural ability to improvise off the tops o their heads is amazing. you can totally tell that thomas has a lot of influence from hendrix
Thomas is really accepting of everyone, and I've always been kind of an a-hole about Guitar Hero and that sort of musical introduction. Even though scream-o was never my genre, I really learned a lot about just loving people who love music from Thom, whether it be someone that like Guitar Hero, or someone who has been on the scene their whole lives and is a local, and that's great in it's own right. :)
Thomas made this song,and the guy this guy is Thomas.The owner from this channel(BTBHead213) is the guy who won a contest from the TFOT site that you could get a lesson with Thomas and blah blah blah...
@JoJ0Studios This is a video from the actual guitarist from the band (The Fall of Troy), the youtube user isn't him. However, he has an effects unit. He probably used the usb interface and plugged it into the computer and also used the camera's sound, too.
Nose que me pone mas triste , el no poder tocar tan bien como thomas erak la guitarra ,o que sea uno de los mejores guitarristas que ha existido y nadie lo conozca ni a él ni a the fall of troy :( habiendo tantas bandas y artistas actuales que son simples , iguales , sin innovacion ni creatividad o que a veces tienen exito solo por que son de un genero que es MODA o porque el cantante es atractivo , me da mucha pena :( viva the fall of troy thomas , tim y andrew lml
hours and hours and hours and hours of practice. Start slow, and speed it up. it's a skill like any other, and you can master it with the proper practice.
His tattoo,the way he plays it(There's a part that he does the double-strumming thingy,and lots of people don't do this),and the notes are perfect.Also Thomas got the same exact Les Paul so...
@lightsZeroKaos thanks man, i thought it was delay but i haven't used a delay pedal or had an amp that had one with such a dramatic effect. so i didn't really know
FCPREMIX is the remade version of FCPGEPGEPGEP... and I just found out that now... the only difference is that this one is faster, and the guitar a bass lines are exchanged...
Hearing the chorus with no other instruments or lyrics is euphoric
Based 🗣️📣💯
Hope you are well 14 years later!
I am! Hope the same for you
Does everyone commenting realize this is Thomas playing right?
There's a reason it has 241000 views bone head
Right?
How often do you see a solo-vid of a star?
It is. I remember seeing this on MySpace in 2007 lmfao
@@stevefred2694 bone head lmao
no its not thomas its krist novoselic from aerosmith
god shows himself to the people whilst serenading them with tunes of the angels
2:12
Simply one of my favorite (if not my favorite) guitar sections of all time
came here just to try and learn that part lol
You should check out Big Sur Moon by Buckethead
30/Dec/2024 I am still seeing you playing one of the best music that I ever heard in my life. Sorry about my English, I don't speak very well
haha i was like "wow this guy plays it pretty damn perfect.." then i looked at his left arm tattoos. haha im stupid :P

You think he off the charts, which I agree you should check out Tim Henson from Polyphia he is so fucking good and creative
All while fucking singing. Gold.
bw practice
I was gonna give a like to your comment but that would ruin the 69…nice
Thomas Erak,
God among men.
Best live performance of any musician i have ever seen.
I wish more famous guitarists did videos like this.
i thought it was really interesting seeing how Thomas really plays the song.
If anyone can tab his version out and send it to me, i'd really appreciate it.
This is Thomas Erak, he plays it in whatever way he wants to.
Even if you get it, there's still so much more to it. It's incredible every time.
i dont wanna see the day!!! tears are falling on my grave!
Will always love this song, reminds me so much of highschool
What a special song from such a special band
I don't wanna see the day, Thomas just melted my face. Tfot was the shit!!!!
the fall of troy and dance gavin dance are the best bands i have ever listened to... ever
One of the most influential guitarists in my life.
I know as a piece its not that difficult but there's always a smile on my face watching him play it even after coming back all these years 🤘
It's so exciting
i love how at 2:53 he quickly tunes his string
My favorite modern guitarist. Thanks for making these! :)
Awesome play! 🔥😍💕
can't wait til their new album drops...
How’s mukiltearth
i come back every so often to laugh at the comments
Same here 🤣
Lol. doing that now actually.
He uses a Line 6 DL-4 delay modeller. For the intro he uses the Rythmic delay setting, And for the chorus he uses the tape echo setting... I think.
Jeez, he plays the chorus so differently than how I learned it. What he's playing looks so much easier than how I play (read: butcher) it.
2020 reunion tour? Waiting for it
one of the most underrated musicians in the world. missed the chance to see him cz of some bitch.
TFOT are still touring. You will have another chance
lol.
Erak has been known to teach people here and there. There's one other person I'm thinking of, I think they tabbed out one of his songs, cause he taught her (I think?)
so much artistic talent in one mortal man... it boggles the mind 0_o
the only person comparable to this guy is jimi hendrix in my opinion. just their sheer natural ability to improvise off the tops o their heads is amazing. you can totally tell that thomas has a lot of influence from hendrix
@@willtowell4636 i'm late but yeah, thomas has said in interviews he's been inspired by hendrix since he was a kid
Its tom u can tell by his tattooes
And by the fact that he ALWAYS tunes his guitar mid song.
Thomas can make the simplest of cords sound amazing.
This is probably the easiest TFOT song to play ever.
Dylan Todd and one of the most fun
Not really, Webs and caught up are way easier also mirrors now that they actually recorded it as tfot
And even still, being the easiest TFOT song doesn't even mean it's *easy*
Yeah, it might be "easy". The difficult thing is to come up with it.
@@yellowcard360what you said! Thomas has awesome composition skills to think of stuff like this.
Playing Bass along to this
siempre que puedo y quiero relajarme escucho este solo, es arte...
cesar restrepo el tema en si es arte
This is absolutely amazing! I can't fathom out how he can play this and sing at the same time?
P.s. Can he get 100% on Guitar Hero for this song? :P
You practice.
Colin Manson he’s a drummer...that helps A LOT
Dude, Thomas. You will always be a guitar god to me. Up there next to Hendrix and Page.
THANKS x MILLION TIMES
of course :)
This guy and Luke Hoskin from Protest the hero are my guitar idols.
This is in truth how god shows us his love

:)
this is great tabs on line are never right! i always looked for stuff like this. will swan needs to do it next!
this is freaking wonderful.
Shame I want this band to come back so bad :( reason I started playing guitar in the first place
They are back and released an album in 2016
and another album now i think
Whoa. You are more than out of this world.
Thomas made this song,and the guy this guy is Thomas.The owner from this channel(BTBHead213) is the guy who won a contest from the TFOT site that you could get a lesson with Thomas and blah blah blah...
the rythm is spot on. its insane
wow, the tone of the guitar is amazing...
i would love to see Cut Down All the Trees And Name the Streets After Them!

goat.
FLAWLESS.
He's so cool!
LEGEND!
The only one I can find that genuinely sounds like it's being played and not audio stacked from another video
because this is Tom actually playing it lol
Oh awesome lmao
@anthonysjb thanks for clearing, that up, kinda hard for me to see exactly what his shirt says.
my gawd.....I CAN HEAR AGAIN!!!
Sick! And thanks RUclips algorithm
this is crazyyy beast!
Awesome Bro !! ..
Coming back for more awesomeness! 🔥🔥🔥
awesome !!!!!
This guy is up there with Randy Rhoads & Kris Norris for me. I love his style. So eccentric and different.
Dude, that is so sick!!
stunning, still the best guitar player around
absolutely brilliant, you nailed it!
well done :)
@massivebig1 Thomas' new band Just Like Vinyl are going on tour with DGD starting in Jan.
Come to jacksonville tfot!
@ThyBlob could anyone else play it this good?
Nose que me pone mas triste , el no poder tocar tan bien como thomas erak la guitarra ,o que sea uno de los mejores guitarristas que ha existido y nadie lo conozca ni a él ni a the fall of troy :( habiendo tantas bandas y artistas actuales que son simples , iguales , sin innovacion ni creatividad o que a veces tienen exito solo por que son de un genero que es MODA o porque el cantante es atractivo , me da mucha pena :( viva the fall of troy thomas , tim y andrew lml
Jonathan Salas lo mismo digo :'(
ok boomer
eso que tiene que ver?
Ni lo complejo es bueno ni lo simple es malo, simplemente es cuestión de gustos
Amazing
I cant even play dis on a friggin 5 button guitar hero toy guitar, how is this possible on a real six string o.O
hours and hours and hours and hours of practice. Start slow, and speed it up. it's a skill like any other, and you can master it with the proper practice.
You've had 5 years. Any progress?
I honestly think it's easier on a real guitar than it was on GH3
@@SmashPan608 it is
I consider myself a beginner and I learned this song in 2 days, can’t play that fast tho
dooood aaaaalllll the way back to the thirty years war.
how did the official tab book get the main riff wrong
My same thought as I was watching his fingers. My tabs were nowhere near the frets he was hitting.
When has an official tab book been correct
awesome dude
Amazing!! Ur freakin awesome and u added ur own style to it ...
His tattoo,the way he plays it(There's a part that he does the double-strumming thingy,and lots of people don't do this),and the notes are perfect.Also Thomas got the same exact Les Paul so...
The tritones sound so fierce!
Dude! Youre Badass!
RESPECT!
my god your amazing...
I have seen a lot of covers, and this one blows my mind away.
It’s the guitarist from the bad
@lightsZeroKaos thanks man, i thought it was delay but i haven't used a delay pedal or had an amp that had one with such a dramatic effect. so i didn't really know
How much does it cost to get Thomas to teach me some things on guitar. Send me a quote.
the pedal is delay 250 with palm mute
Awesome dude
and now 2020 we still wait say "yes me"
soooo good
I love how people are giving criticism. Its Thomas erak playing it lol
the real guitar hero
heard it singing =)
awesome 5/5
