    1st and 3rd solo was Mark Tremonti, 2nd and 4th was Myles Kennedy. Mark never mentioned Satriani as an inspiration, he grew up on Slayer and Metallica. Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Beck influenced him, his style changed over the years though. He likes modern guitarists like Derek Trucks, Joe Bonamassa or Guthrie Govan, he's keeping himself updated on youtube/instagram guitarists aswell. I think Tremonti developed his own style, I could recognize him blindfolded without a doubt.

    • @Khil-Minao
      @Khil-Minao 3 года назад +3

      Agreed. After listening to him for 17-18 years, Mark has become one of my favorite (and most recognizable) guitarists.
      Love his heavy, hammering riffs, but perhaps even moreso his amazing finger-style picking in their/his more soft, more melodic songs. :)
      Legendary :)

  • @aybarskokmen8884
    @aybarskokmen8884 3 года назад +7

    I agree about almost everything especially about the harmonizing. However this was more of a experimental song so the structure could be overseen. The solos you liked more are from Myles Kennedy who is more of a blues guy. The other is Mark Tremonti aka The Tremonster. Finally about the tone of Myles. You should check out his other works that man can sing everything. Jeff beckley, gnr, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, ac dc. Check out his solo album it has like a western vibe. Great reaction

  • @WayneRenbjor
    @WayneRenbjor 3 года назад +6

    They do all of vocal harmony live for sure. Earlier on, Mark T was not a super strong vocalist but as he has had his own albums and training, he has really stepped into his own vocally.

  • @TheHeath68
    @TheHeath68 3 года назад +8

    They absolutely do it live! Mark Tremonti is a fantastic vocalist! And also harmonizes in the recordings as well! Mark was also the 1st and 3rd solo, Myles was 2nd and 4th. Rule of thumb with these guys, if its bluesy and has alot of emotion, its Myles and if it has feel but also melts your face off, its Mark! You need to go down the AB rabbit hole man! You need to check out Words Darker than their Wings live at the Royal Albert Hall ft the Parallex Orchestra next! You'll be blown away how incredible these guys are live! And you'll hear Myles and Mark trading off vocals! As always awesome review!

    @14:18 "He has to be influenced by Sach" Yes and no, I have seen several BTS vids of Mark and he is an Al Dimedia zealot whom also influenced Sach, so more that they have a common inspiration. But one thing Mark and Sach have in common having watched a ton of each's guitar training videos, they both have a master hold of music theory. If you just listen to how he talks he just drops things like "Fridgian Dominat" and "Play this on the B, going to the 9th, which puts us in lidian" He LOVES his modes. ruclips.net/video/JT0jS6EBQXU/видео.html
