when he taps its like his fingers are magnetically attracted to the correct fret
Thats very true
practice practice practice
coincidence I think NOT
Are you Gotta do is take away like is from that sentence and he would be right
@@thomassanders8243 lol
amazing!!!
🖤🖤🖤
Can i have a squier from yall?
Rommel Castillo hi Rommel
Deus11 sorry man I don’t have a squier
@@MateusAsato you should try Cort
That weird feeling while watching him play, like wanna quit guitar for ever but at the same time i feel motivated to be better.
Youre a beast boi
Same! Ever since I discovered him I've been learning all of his songs like crazy
not gonna lie, i didnt care that hes better than me until i saw a video of him from when he was 16 because im 14
You can be like that too.Just eat a tuna can a day.Practice Hendrix and Vai all day.Forget chicks,bars,clubs and social life.
Bought my guitar 5 years ago and all I can play is Smoke on the water
Why even bother learning to play guitar if you feel like quitting when someone's more skilled than you? There will always be people more skilled. The reason to play isn't to compete.
Imagine just being a musician and releasing some cool stuff only to find out in the comments that you've caused some men to reconsider their sexual orientation
Bek L 10/10 would smash
Lol honestly I’m just a lil bi but I’m hella bi for Tim
I’m straight, except for tim. Only tim, nobody else. Does this make me gay? Bisexual? I have no clue, but I would only be gay for one guy and it’s tim.
Naw fam that mean you been thinking about it
Nate Miller As Louis CK once said ‘Im only gay for the best’
I'm so glad I'm alive to hear #8 be released as Playing God
Playing God indeed, Tim!!!! You're beyond amazing
"Why does this unreleased one sound so familiar?!?!"
Oh - right. That's why.
When I discovered Tim I started learning his songs like crazy, and in one month I had improved four times as much as I would in half a year. I have built my speed, hybrid picking, and harmonic skills through the roof. I hope he continues to do the same for others.
True his songs are challenging and improve guitar skills
Big same
When i discovered him i relized how bad i really sucked...lol
I just did the same over quarantine with Chon, and here I am doing it with Tim lmao
Im trying to improve my hypmbrid picking and tappings
Make a whole song out of the shred collab, it was such a great riff it deserves a whole song
fo real!!!
I better hear that riff on the new album
its the intro to 40oz lol
@@mjutn pretty sure they are talking about the JDSC one (Jared Dines’ Shred Collab) its the one before G.O.A.T. He made that riff for the collab and it isn't in a song so ppl have been asking for it
@@ShroudedPhoenix oh yeah that riff is indeed sick af and would be nice as a fleshed out song
Well, you know what they say. “Straight as a metal pole? Sorry to break it to ya but even metal bends if it’s hot enough”
Factory settings 😎
Cringe

Shut up feminised beta male.
Simp
i love that you stick to the standard tuning
Ichika Nito be like: I'm sorry, is this a peasant joke I'm too rich to understand?
I think out of every song they’ve made only two are in drop d
@@wilsonminogue8282 funnily enough, most of the ones you’d think are in standard are actually in drop d. I think the ones in this video aren’t tho
So true.
everything from renaissance was in drop d, but they've been using e standard since (mostly)

@@JJ-iw4vi well it’s part of their new album coming soon, so excited for that!
@@krazykiko5780 WHEN IS IT COMING OUT
@@hfl_ We don't know but they teased it almost a year ago, I think they're just finishing it up rn. Probably before the year ends or early 2021, but idk
Ironically, the bass player is wearing an "And justice for all" shirt 😂
His name is Clay Gober
Emm GB Glay Cober
What’s ironic about it ? Literally just wondering?
@@nickytheyahoo_ that album has no bass sound in it's mix
Copy that !
Can’t wait for the new album and everything else you do next decade
4:03 - "Playing God" damn, thats sick! Here we are with 2022 haha
Tim brought sexy back to the guitar world. His riffs, his flow and delivery. Its inspiring.
Guitar has always been sexy you bozo
His hands looks like spiders when running, and sounds so futuristic. This dude is ultra fucking talented
This dude is modern genius!
The GOAT
Gabriel, was just thinking that while watching Geebs do a reaction of Playing God
The JD shred collab is definitely my favorite. I remember when I first watched the entire collaboration video and was like "shred...shred...shred...shred...shred...WHOA, what the hell is THAT?!". Through that video, I found Polyphia, which opened up so many musical doors and artists I hadn't been aware of before.
same
I’ve been straight my whole life, but Tim a snack.
😂😂😂
*lmao*
Haaaahahahaha
Well,,,, you are no longer straight
Indeed he is, im straight but can appreciate a cuteboi when I see one
4:04 riff is #1 for me, holy shit dude. i listened to that about thirty times when i found it.
o i just watched the rest of the video and your shred collab part is #2, with goat being #1 and that’s okay too lmao
Which song is that man?
it’s the teaser for album 4 that they released early in december
the shred collab one was so
It's like Al di Meola from the hood. So spanish and so groovy
4:33 for me, holy crap. It’s not just chops, it’s character, personality... and yes chops lol. I’m just so used to players with this ability to be playing some type of metal. This dude is ready to battle Tosin
So many words to describe Tim's playing. But clean, precise, beautiful, and innovative are the ones I would use most. This dude is technically superior to almost all of the guitarists I (we) listen to, and does it with skill, feel, and a quiet calmness all at the same time. Discovered him through the shred collab and he is outright the sickest guitarist I've ever seen.
@Old Gregg definitely. A true innovator.
Check out Chon
@Old Gregg sorry I never got these notifications... I have to admit, I may have been overstating his caliber, I've just got a super man crush on him and his skills 😂 definitely agree on the innovation though, that's for sure his biggest credibility, never afraid to try something new or be different, something the guitar works desperately needs!
Not disagreeing but check the guy who covered the whole 2019 shred collab in 4 days by ear. Jared dines just made a video of him
@@friendlyplayer92 Watched it already, absolute insanity! But, we must also appreciate the difference between innovation and the technical ability, thats what i feel is the biggest difference for Tim and Ichika and co, they push boundaries!
Amazing technical ability, innovative riffs in your own style and the best clean tone I’ve ever heard. Excited to see the next decade of Tim and Polyphia!
Tim is not something u see every now and then. I mean it. I'm fucking 31,Been playing guitar since I was 12, I've listened to hundreds of guitar players over the years...
Tim is like Ronaldo or Messi, a genius of once in every few generations...
So unique and creative.
Ichika and Tim are thes Messis and Ronaldos of the guitar world
@@NormalGrump Tim seems better due to song creation which is very very important.
Michael Corcoran idk I like both, ichika songs to be harder difficulty for me
@@NormalGrump That might be so but that doesn't matter. When I was younger (not sure if you are young or not) I confused difficulty with song quality. Song quality is what is most important. If you want difficulty play like 8 notes per beat string skip 300bpm. No one cares. But ichika seems great too
@@michaelcorcoran3942 I'm 17, so I'm only been playing for like 3 years, and both tim and Ichika have songs that actually require skill and sound nice, im just saying goat is easier for me than I miss you
happy 2020 mr henson. i cannot wait to see what is in store for the next year.
chris h mrs*
@@rossocorsa6577 you fool. you absolute buffoon
Tour only
@@chrish1349 you goon. You absolute oaf
@@mikaelmonten3786 oh you mongrel. you genuine cretin
That acoustic riff at 4:04 is totally insane ! It's like Paco De Lucia meeting trap. You music is already amazing, please bring more of that and you'll probably break everything.
holy fucking shit this man has been predicting history
My list for worst riffs:
1. The Worst
lol
number 2: bad
Number 3: Not Good
4. Right out
Number 5: nasty
God the drummer is so clean sounding.
What do you expect when Jesus himself takes up the sticks 🤣
He is Clay Aeschliman, and I would highly suggest to listen to his playthroughs on Meinl's Channel
The unreleased from 2:30 please relase the whole song it is amazing
New album song pretty sure. Shouldn't be too far away
Yeah it's a track from the new album
Actually, isn't the new track at 4:04?
@@saritha55 they both are unreleased, likely both on the new album
@@alexv0714 my bad, could've sworn I heard something very similar in the new album
Bro. My man straight summons unicorns through his guitar. Unreal playing man
Taking me 2 months to get like the first 4 measures of GOAT lol
I've been going for about 4 months and nearly completely got it down. I've also got the NLND tab book, so I've been learning Yas too, which is a LOT easier now
Same!!!!!!
Word of advice if you’re not already doing this, try playing it a lot slower then gradually start to speed it up. Only mind this comment if you’re not already doing this
It's 2 difficult especially for the harmonics
T Foltz it’s really not that hard compared to other Polyphia riffs
Dude, I absolutely love the blue 8 string you use in "Look but don't Touch", it's so beautiful. I've always wanted to try to play an 8 string, Been playing a 6 for since I was 10, so 21 years now. Guitar has been my saving grace. I've undergone 3 kidney transplants and a liver transplant in my life from shit I was born with and playing guitar has been one of the very few things that have been able to pull me out of and keep me out of very deep and dark depressions. One day I hope to be able to pick one up similar to that one. You're such an inspirational and innovative player dude, I love listening to the crazy runs you come up with. Much love bro.
Don't mean to be a dick but damn you must be rich. Massive respect tho that takes a lot of strength
Like the dark souls of guitar playing
Conquerer of adversity
Literally commented almost the exact same thing on the o.d riff
As a 25 year old mediocre guitar player who regularly dreams of being as good as you Tim, I just wanna say thank you for being such an inspiration! much love from Ontario
The first is my fav Tim Henson video of all time, this right here shows how he can play live just as well as he can record, literally the same take... I can’t tell a diff
Jacob Sundeen
I saw them live last month and I can confirm that they sound almost exactly the same live
I’m back 2 years later now that Playing God (the second unreleased riff) was released 😂
There's no words that can describe how much I love you and the way you play man.
The Prophecy is fullfilled:
After the age of VAI, a son of the future will come.
He will defy genres and genders.
He will fear neither odd meters nor complexity.
He will be the master of all techniques and the bearer of the 33rd harmonic...
and He will show man to the secret ways of the guitar,
for He is burdened with contempt for the old world.
.....and he shall save music for all humanity, and thru the fire his disciples will rise!
Amen!
I called his genre the Asian genre..lol, Tim, Ichika, Asato etc..Idk why tho. They are all from East, West, South but all they have in common is Asian hahaha/
Thirty Thirth
Dam lmao
Love you mate! You continue to inspire
TIM HENSON BEST RIFFMAKER IN HISTORY OF MUSIC, HANDS DOWN
4:04 new album, or we riot. Nuff said.
Confirmed
I've been using this as a repeat button lol. Its so sick that he's able to make nylon sound fresh and modern.
Extremely inventive. I get the same feeling while watching Tim Henson that I got when I saw Eddie Van Halen or Steve Vai for the first time. These are artists that change the the way we play and listen to guitar. I've played professionally for 26 years and a lot of Tim's techniques are new to me. Well done, sir!
@4:04 finally released!
watched this more than once in a row and still open jaw. your style is something exceptional.
Tim Henson slowly turning metal heads soft and we’re all okay with it 😂
Let's be honest here, no one can help but come back to this video again and again just to listen the unreleased ones.
Damn i love the second unreleased one
released!
@@spongmoid842 not #4
Still can't believe that Tim has had the riff to Playing God in the holster for at least 3 years before putting it out. He's probably got dozens if not hundreds of unreleased projects that would melt our brains. Like, the guitar version of Mac Miller.
Those songs sound like “Little wing” on 2020 steroids. Amazing melody and skill
This is exactly what I was thinking lol, Joni Hendrix/ Santana but better and of our generation
This should never be compared to music, which Little Wing is
davidseifferleinfilm def not better lol
who is joni hendrix?
@@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power Joni Joni, Hendrix papa
Anyone saw "playing god" yet? ya. He IS playing god.
i just found out about Tim when the shred colab came out on Dec 25...
Im amazed... instant fan \m/
btw.i just fkn love the phrasing on jsdc
Ugh, they’re all incredible haha. And Blood Moon wasn’t even out when this video was made haha.
Ikr
This is the best guitarist of all time and it isn’t even close. Ty sir
3:35 the most exotic riff i have ever heard
Have you...
Listened to goat?
@@nqvy_4546 Is that by Tim Henson? I havent heard of it
@@redstone-kg3ne tim henson is a guitarist in the band polyphia, which made goat :)
he hasnt yet released any solo music apart from whats on this youtube channel
Looks like hes playing a rubik's cube
Rubik's cube is actually easier than playing like him.
He could probably start playing now for the next 15 years straight and never play the same lick twice, he’s like an A.I. On the guitar.
Keep practicing dude. You’re sounding pretty good and i can see you have some potential!! Whatever you do, don’t give up!!
Number 4 is fucking sick, it sounds like something out of Majora's Mask. Can't wait to see it become a full song
"Give me anything, and I'll write something insanely complicated, but insanely beautiful over it."
Cant wait for the 20's and all of your music that comes with it
Genuinely one of the most talented individuals I've ever seen in my life. Coming across this guy was a blessing indeed
You have to release number 4 eventually! Holy it sounds so beautiful! 👍🏼
So now we know unreleased 2 is Playing God by Polyphia. NICE
The shred for Jared's video should be a full song that play was smooth as butter 🖒
My favorite lesbian lol
Man I’m so glad i found this band and to be honest ive been needing this sound for years and his fusion of so many genres of music is absolutely phenomenal
Super impressive decade! Take care of yourself and live like 5 more decades!!
Your style and sound is so original. Your band is always innovative.
This guy is going to usher in a new era of playing.
Zack Halilovic LoL how
Not many can play like that
He already has. Lots of people trying to be Polyphia now.
No. 8 is now Playing God, the ultimate riff
Tim handsome
Been playing guitar over 30 years, and discovering Tim has completely changed my view on what's possible. More motivated to practice and create than ever before.
2:33 that hit different. I'm talking about his eyes
I was like "ah so I guess I'm gay now"
Why does this man have the power to make me bi for him
Who have him this amount of power
@@nqvy_4546 it is *illegal*
I wish I had discovered Tim sooner. I started playing guitar since I was in 6th grade and most of the songs I played were just pop songs, literally strumming the chords all over. After years not touching my guitar, I am now learning his riffs as a college junior. I don't have much time playing since there are tons of things to focus on, that's why I wish I had known him sooner. Thanks the w6rst, you're the best lol
3:33 is just so flowy. Fantastic.
I'm so glad I found your channel through the biggest collab number 3
You should definitely listen to his band Polyphia if you like Tim's playing :)
@@Mr.Goldbar oh o.k
He's playing guitar since he's a fetus
Ahh, so that's why!
not inaccurate at all
he started playing the violin at age 3
My man is still a fœtus lols
Dude, you are a legend, the next generation of Hendrix, Vai and Satriani in one. Ever thought of playing a classical guitar sometimes too, I feel some of the clean tones and harmonics would transfer nicely over to that and sound dope
Finale has to be one of the best ever riffs. Happy new year bro, thanks for all the musics
Amazing Tim, amazing. You're so talented and such an original guitarist. So young and so ahead. GJ
The lick playing at 3:52 is my favorite one of this mashup
My god guitar solos aren't a thing of the past their a thing of the future in those hands, awesome Tim beautiful work, I'd love to see you play a slow melodic groove that would be great to see..... Cheers W
My list:
1. G.O.A.T.
2. Goose
3. The Worst
4. OD
5. 40oz
6. Lalala
7. Saucy
8. Icronic
9. jdsc
10. Nightmare
Envision was written by Scottie. Or wasn't it?
@@shm3ll i don't know, i think some parts is written by tim
@@azharnab they had a post about who had written their songs, and Envision was written all by Scottie, except Tim's solo
@@shm3ll i didn't know, then is icronic written by tim? I will replace it with that
@@azharnab that twangy riffs in the end of Icronic were written by Scottie, but intro, first verse and chorus were written by Tim
I can feel the emotion in your guitar, Tim - It's almost as if it's singing to me. Namaste and thank you for playing!
Each and every riff on here is so sick, I just wish the volume between all the clips was evened out a bit
LOVE THE TITLE! Tim is already DA LEGEND and he bloody knows is it! :)
2:21 damnnnnn
the unreleased one is just so amazing ! can't wait to hear the final version :D
the one at 2:20 just makes me super excited for album 4
this didn't age well
@@jordanc2844 LMAO still excited for album 329847 tho
waiting for 4 to be released. it sounds amazing!!!!!!!
8. Playing God
2:20 is my favorite part
its also good I get to see nightmare tappong
I love how when he's playing saucy, it really looks like he has to focus more than he usually does
#8 is the intro their new song Playing God
I gotta say the jared dines shred riff is sooooo good probably my fav lol even though it's so new
cant believe the unreleased on 8 is now released. playing god👍
There’s a not a lot of guitarists who have that good of an ear for catchy hooks and melodies while also being a shred god. I wonder what his and Scott’s legacy will be like in like 20 years time...
Young man I just found about you while watching a music teacher trying his best to explain your style of "guitarship". It was the song G.O.A.T. You are incredible sir! Your playing style is off the charts. You have another new fan in the crowd. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. 😊😍😘
I'd also add in that one riff from nasty after the intro, that shit is gold.
really nice to hear #8 finally released! fits amazing with the melody he came up with on the omnichord, a fantastic place to use the unreleased riff
GOAT and GOOSE
ALL THE WAY!!!!!!
Where did this come from.... this is so stunning in everyway. I have been playing guitar for 25 years.... and this is mindblowing to me. I have to expand my style... like ALOT
"Your body is not a temple
It's an amusement park
So enjoy the ride"
You are so talented Tim! Thank you for playing! Your music inspires others to be their very best. 🙏🌀😇
