I just want to point out that we did this video in 5 takes with two different cameras (equaling a total of 10 different shots) Each take was played through completely and Travis is just a bad ass. The end.
12 dislikes for this video? Clearly that means there were 12 people with broken thumbs or Alien Hand Syndrome that watched this video. Either that, or Travis melted your faces off so that you lost your vision and accidentally clicked the dislike button. I understand that because Travis constantly melts my face.
Very nice stuff, man. I like the change in key. A couple of the solo parts sounded kind of muddy but that could've just been you putting two different runs over each other and both of them not being identical? In any case, I'll have to look into more of your stuff. Subbed!
Hey man. I'm trying to learn this using daw and slowing and warping the tones, but there's some things I can't make out because it's just so damn fast. Do you have any tips for learning this?
I've been using the same process to learn things for years, so most likely what I did was find a tab that was accurate as possible. Then, for the parts that didn't seem right, I would look up live videos of Tosin or try to find other good covers to watch what they're doing. If that doesn't work, then I use what's called the Amazing Slow Downer to try to figure out something note-by-note.
Thanks! My guitar is tuned down 1/2 step and has a floating trem, so it's easier to just pitch shift the song slightly rather than spending half an hour retuning and adjusting my guitar.
God, dude, you nailed the tone. How do those music man guitars feel to play? I see everyone with them - what kind of pickups are those? Do you think theyre worth the purchase?
Adam Graft This guitar comes stock with Dimarzio Crunchlab and Liquifire. The Petrucci EBMM guitars are by far my favorite guitars to play. Extremely comfortable and they sound great. Can't go wrong with the BFR's or Majesty.
Definitely what I'd go with if I had the money. I've seen them played in all sorts of bands - what impresses me most is the tone range they seem to have. Thanks for the reply, Travis!
Travis Montgomery Really? I have a John Petrucci set on my guitar. WHat wood is the guitar made from? And btw, sick playing. Is it lower than the original?
Well, it seems than the less headbanging, the more technical the metal gets... It proves headbanging produces brain damage... Saying that, I`m fucked up... Great work!
woah. a hipster friend of mine is into this band. he used to post vids all the time on facebook, and i always ignored it because i thought this band was going to be like a modest mouse wanna-be band (that's what hipsters seem to flock to). but damn, i'm surprised. this shit's good. like a more chill Meshuggah BTW great cover. you're better than me at guitar.
Keith Reeder typical youtube response. what are you, 13? sorry for using myself as a reference point for delivering a genuine comment. maybe i should be like you and spend my time focused on other people and spreading cynicism rather than paying attention to my own life... yep, shame on me for expressing a respectful opinion about this person's musical talent by using the only possible reference point for anybody in existence - the self... go troll elsewhere.

9 years and I still keep coming back every year several times, this is just one of the most legendary covers ever made
Dude, thanks so much! Hard to believe that this was almost a decade ago.
Me to dude. Me too.
I like how at 2:51 your pinky is headbanging
I call Hax. His guitar isn't even plugged in. Subscribed. Saved to favorites.
This guy knows what's up!
literally the best cover of this song forever
A* song
thats what im talking about brothaaaa!!
Such a pretty cover, the city in the background is such a cool touch. Looks phenomenal. Really good playing too!
just saw this on the Fractal forum, freaking awesome Travis!
Thanks, Rocco!
Mad skills!
hey whats up matty sevenfold :D
Love the song, love the guitar, love your playing, subscribed to tour channel from some months, you're the n.1 Travis!!
Now it is clear: The 8-string version of the JP model will be the TM8
Are you from the future??? Ernie ball\john Petrucci are making an 8 string majesty rn
Always fun watching you jam Travis :)
What a great demonstration of determination and passion... Props Travis! I love that song and your cover is excellent.
ughhh...The Cover to end all covers. Soo good
Dude that backdrop...this is so awesome
And last comment...Very good cover. Looks like you played it perfectly on time/clean all that. You rock man.
Just an insane work as always. Thank you for this video Travis!
Amazing Travis! Keep it up and keep rockin'!!
i remember your solo cover video of this. i watched that video a shitload of times
This video got me to subscribe I was surprised and blown away at how amazing this cover is sweet!
Really awesome! Love this song. It's hard to play.

I tried to tap my foot along with the song and wound up with my foot on backwards...
Math Metal: Not even once.
Great job on the play through.
Awesome cover loved it
GODLIKE!
Flawless!
Incredible
Incredible cover!
woooow!! play too great bro
Holy fucking shit dude. Amazing.
Nicely done Travis!! I like your haircut too BTW:-)
Thanks! :)
this is a fucking example of how you can technically expermiment with music and the sound as a whole you want as one unit
kickasssssss Cover man (y)
gooood job
Is there anything you can't play? Cuz you make everything look so easy and effortless.
So awesome man, you nailed it
I thought you were in dallas, bad ass video man!
Thanks!

I'm a huge fan of threat signal :-)
i don't even...
BRUTAL!
Awesome!!! :D
Dwight's brother, Mose on guitar.
Btw, this is freaking awesome!
Great version!! Sounds heavy
spot on.
Amazing!
amazing, to say the least!!
unplugged but the best cover with great sound.
Very nice stuff, man. I like the change in key. A couple of the solo parts sounded kind of muddy but that could've just been you putting two different runs over each other and both of them not being identical? In any case, I'll have to look into more of your stuff. Subbed!
holy shit that was awesome. well done
beautiful guitar
Well, that was godlike.
great cover but just personally i like to see the actual live take. Not like anyone was asking but thats just my two cents.
Hardly any youtuber's do it in one live take, they care more about camera angles ;)
@@ESPSJ defeats the purpose of a COVER then. Might as well just listen to the original
Wow that was kick ass
Oh my fucking Jesus this is so awesome!
Good work man
Great job! A few mistakes but then again Tosin is a machine that’s the only reason he plays it so perfect
I'm curious to know... are you using flatwound strings?
Deep Ellum! Use to work out there, nice skills man
Epic as fuck. Great job dude!!
Travis Montgomery Nice cover. How long did this take to learn?

@@travismontgomery dude tysm! Yea I did that for CAFO, this is way faster😝I'll do my best, clean ass cover bro👌🏽
Nailed it
BRAVO !!!
Sounds sick in this key
if I had a nickel for every time I've listened to this song I could afford that guitar.
Why is it tuned down however many semitones? I like your cover.
Thanks! My guitar is tuned down 1/2 step and has a floating trem, so it's easier to just pitch shift the song slightly rather than spending half an hour retuning and adjusting my guitar.
Thanks for replying to me! I appreciate your answering my question. Totally legitimate reason to record a semitone under in my opinion.
My only problem with this is that I cannot play this song myself lol. Unless you can play it you should criticize. Excellent job man.
I'll assume you recorded each segment in one take :)
Good stuff!
i didnt know that ashton kutcher do play the guitar lol, just kidding, awesome work here man!
Dat camerawork though. Follow focusing your fretting hand? Shit's impressive!
Glad that someone noticed this! Chantelle's camerawork is awesome.
God, dude, you nailed the tone. How do those music man guitars feel to play? I see everyone with them - what kind of pickups are those? Do you think theyre worth the purchase?

Travis Montgomery Really? I have a John Petrucci set on my guitar. WHat wood is the guitar made from? And btw, sick playing. Is it lower than the original?
I cant get over how shiny your JP is
daaamn man. you fucking amizing. super fast and rock that guitar.
that guitar is soooo sexy!! awesome playing man
Thanks!
Well, it seems than the less headbanging, the more technical the metal gets... It proves headbanging produces brain damage... Saying that, I`m fucked up... Great work!
geniusssss
some ridiculously dumb comments on such a great cover, good stuff man.
woah,almost didn't recognize you without your hair then i saw you play and i was like yup, travis
Nice!
woah. a hipster friend of mine is into this band. he used to post vids all the time on facebook, and i always ignored it because i thought this band was going to be like a modest mouse wanna-be band (that's what hipsters seem to flock to). but damn, i'm surprised. this shit's good. like a more chill Meshuggah
BTW great cover. you're better than me at guitar.

"you're better than me at guitar."
Wow - praise indeed. He'll be thrilled to know that...

go troll elsewhere.
+yurtpoh 9/10 reply.
amazing invisible cable)
I have no clue how to make that intro sound even relative clean.... compression?
firstly: guitar sounds amazing, is that music man ?
secondly: do not loose goatee
One question, why tune half a step lower?
great tone too T_T
Hey dude, tabs or pdf at the song please
JESUS CHRIST
I don't love animal as leaders but this song is fine!
That's some fucked up shit right there man... In a good way of course! Jesus Christ, you nailed it!
