Easily 200% more shirts than I've ever seen Matt Pike wear before.
easily my fave comment :D
You just won Today's Internet with that comment. LOL
😂
And a button up with pockets too! Not just a t shirt 😂
Like ×100
Man, Pike is looking 10 years younger... Glad for him!
We love to see it.
Sobriety baby 💪🏻
It's so great to see him looking healthy and kicking out the riffs
Weed is the secret 😁
Great to see!!!
Pike keeps saying these riffs “fall from the sky” because he is too humble to see that he is the modern day riff master.
Seen them live many times, always up front. The sheer volume that beats you in your face for over an hour.... I know some people don't get it, and that's totally alright. Just glad I do. Hopefully Matt sticks around as long as Lemmy did. One of my favorite musicians.
I had tickets to see them but Matt got his toe chopped off and had to cancel, finally this past year I got to see them live and it RIPPED everything I imagined it to be !
I’ve seen them live more than any other band… and only once was on purpose. They kept showing up at shows for bands I wanted to see and I eventually became a fan. Love Pike, dudes a treasure.
@@Eliphas_Elric Interesting fact, Matt was engaged to a friend of mines cousin around 10 years ago. He came to Soddy Daisy Tenn and stayed with my friends parents. They had a water leak or something, and he was out there in their yard, shirt off of course, digging with a shovel helping out. Can you imagine driving through a neighborhood and seeing Matt Pike digging a trench lol.
They went to Gatlinburg Tenn, and from what I was told, they couldnt get him off the Nascar go cart track. I would have killed to see this.
probably the loudest show I've ever seen. Loud to the extent that I actually got dizzy and my high frequency hearing was shot for the next week.
@@resindoc I never go to shows without earplugs. My hearing is already fucked, and I have tinnitus. No need to make it worse.
Jeff matz is such underrated muscian! You can see n hear why the riff master pike picked him to be in hof! 🔥
Hes great, ive been seeing him live since the zeke and camarosmith days. Very cool dude also
Hell yeah....badass bassist....and guitarist!!!
I've been listening to these guys for 15 years. Probably over a year straight of constant heaviness in my ears. God protect Matt Pike and Jeff Matz.
Matt is one of the great all time riff writers imo
*The Riff General*
@@mr.craysee3653 riff finder general
Definitely in my personal top 5.
Blessed Black Wings? That said, their ability to make relatively simple harmonies absolutely memorable and hard hitting by developing their style is awesome. High on Fire is an adjective for a style of riff.
HOF is one of the heaviest, original and soulful bands on the planet
"Devilution" was the first High on Fire song I ever heard & immediately thought "whoa, now this is totally unique!!" Soooo heavy & aggressive! Damn, now I gotta go listen to it again. 👌
1st HOF show was them opening for Motorhead in LA house of blues, never heard of them and then BAM this sound and shirtless guy surrounded by green stacks lol , been a fan since . Was a fan of Zeke and then BAM Jeff is in HOF . Many shows later they are still the best .
My favorite’s always been Romulus and Remus from De Vermis Mysteriis. Such a pounding riff
Yes!!
That whole albums destroys. Bloody Knuckles is my personal favorite
There's so many....
....I forgot that one🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥
Yeah that's the kinda riffage that makes Lightning ⚡ God's look down and think, "F*¢k It! This guy with the growl-iest sounding riffs right here can finally after like 4000 yera's take over my job I just couldn't retire until I found a seriously committed human who understands what 'LOUD' truely can do when applied with a deft hand & serious intent!🐉🌩️
@@YouGotTheMelvin Bloody Knuckles and Romulas and Reamus are my 2 fav tracks from that album
Great video, but my favourite bit was probably at the end where Matt said: "...and we're working on a new album" 😀
I can listen to (and watch) High On Fire all day. Love the music, the riffs, the tones!
Outro riff from Cometh Down Hessian is the best riff ever written.
The whole album is legendary, but the ending of Face of Oblivion takes the cake for me.
Having seen Matt play in the prime of his drinking, it really shows how much that stuff ruins humans
My love for this band is endless
The world is full of amazing guitar/bass players for who just one of these amazing riffs would be the best riff they ever wrote and here’s Matt and Jeff just making it rain with non stop riffs! High on Fire are up to their eyeballs in amazing riffs 🎸🤘
Hopefully we see a new High on Fire album this year. I'd kill for a High on Fire/Crowbar tour.
Looks like next year
Add Melvins and Eyehategod in there and you got a solid ass line up
Yo it's out
God do I love these two men. The music they make is so powerful. Matt Pike once bumped into me at the double door in Chicago. I was like holy shit, it’s High on Fire!!!
You two need to know how truly inspirational you are and have been....you look healthy and lucid and I will always be indebted for having the great fortune of getting my mind blown by your distinct gifts and discipline!
Ripping a joint in High On Fire pit at Psycho Las Vegas in 2016 was definitely one of the best times I've had a show in my life
God I hope I can find a musical bests like Matt and jeff, they truly bring the best out in each other musically!
Love these dudes, been listening to Snakes and Death is This Communion for weeks on repeat, then saw this today!
Wow, cool to hear Matt talk about being inspired by The Haunted. their debut album is an overlooked classic. And I can totally hear some of their note choices worked their way into some HoF riffs.
I used to love The Haunted Made Me Do It, but I haven’t thought about that one in years! I immediately knew what he was talking about when he said it though.
Damn that seger guitar looks badass
Isn't that the company that makes SG copies for Tony Iommi?
Im not sure, i just recently followed them when matt teased his guitar on IG. They do have a model called YG, kinda like a thick sg/yamaha sbg
@@deanstanley2125 no that’s Jaydee out of England. Dallas Seger makes guitars in Maine. Fuckin beautiful guitars.
Funny (or not so much) how with other bands I might remember choruses and other sung phrases and with High on Fire I get just riffs stuck in my head.
Same here, heheh. I sing/growl so I'm naturally drawn to the vocals and I'm super into lyrics, but with HoF you just can't. The riffs, man, they're just too fucking good. Even after the 100th time, it's just not worth it paying attention to anything else. Matt Pike is a genius.
Matt Pike looking like he's ready to star in a Sam Peckinpah movie from the early 70s.
High on Fire fucking rules. One of my favorite bands for sure.
Fantastic and super fun video. Respect on the Des praise. He is such a great dude and his work is master class.
Such an amazing catalog.
Return to nod. From death is this communion has been on my daily play list for well over three years and i never get sick of that opening riff! Thanks for the music my dudes.
Death is this Communion is one of the craziest metal albums I've ever heard to this day
Man Matt really is the master of incredibly groovy and heavy riffs
I'm so glad Matt Pike is looking so good and healthy, man.
This is amazing! Its especially great to see them jamming it out rather than Scott Ian just talking about it (nothing wrong with that). It's also interesting to learn what Jeff has written. I knew he wrote some stuff (Matt told me and my group of friends in Bloomington Jeff wrote half of Snakes For The Divine).
The first time I heard Fire, Flood and Plague, it crushed my fucking mind. An absolutely earth shattering riff.
It made me have this fucking Mad Max type of fucking dream where a rat rod car was getting chased by an art deco style cop car through an apocalyptic urban wasteland. There were machine guns, explosions and lots of fire. The chase went through this long ass tunnel through a fucking mountain where a big ass fucking helicopter was waiting for them with a ton of missiles at the other end. It ended with the rat rod car getting fucking annihilated in an epic firestorm of missiles.
Such great tone
HoF rulesss…Matt pike is a god and you have no idea the power and the soundddd these guys until you see it live must see band will change your whole perspective on shit…Mouth of Architect is heavy as uranium and the chug riff after the soaring intro on drowning dog is golden and absolute banger of a song one of my fav HoF jamsssss cheers men keep on rocking come back to motor city one mo timeeeeee
Epic…met Matt in Tbay…had a beer with him before the show. They melted all faces, great performance. Great Guys Amazing band and music.
I could listen to Jeff and Matt play all day. But could you imagine the sheer power if HOF had two guitar players?? Holy shit.
Riff gratitude.
Love it.
Omg I wanted to have them keep going on fury whip! My absolute favorite HOF riff is the main intro to the verse….they stopped right before that!! Great way to start a Friday though.
Hooked since I first listened to Baghdad when The Art of self-defense was released!
I love that they started with 10,000 Years, because that was the first HoF song I heard and it immediately made me a hardcore fan. Also, the fact that most of these riffs are from SFTD and before reflects my obsession of listening to the first 5 albums. Matt and Matz, love it
Snakes for the Divine is so good.
Surprised not to see anything from Blessed Black Wings on the list.
9:29 ".. and they were roommates"
Cant believe they didnt pick any songs from Vermis, bloody knuckles blows my socks off every time
Maybe my new fav vid on RUclips. Could watch them play all day.....FURY WHIP!!! Luv it
Grizzly dudes with a sense of humor and a Roky Erickson t-shirt: this is why they’re the greatest metal band working today
Roky is a legend
One of the greatest bands ever!
Never heard of these guys before standing front row for the set at Psycho Las Vegas 2022. Fuck they’re awesome! My damn ears hurt by the end of their set! Haha
From the insane speed of Zeke to the sludgy stomp of 10 000 Years (and others)...Jeff Matz has definitely had an interesting musical career!
And he is a solid dude. Super super genuine dude.
Love this band!!!
Well they picked my favorite first shot with 10,000 Years. What a riff... the way the band just builds the layers behind it until its just a wall of sound. I guess if I'm picking one they didn't, I'd go with Blessed Black Wings. Its got Mastodon vibes to it. Also my favorite Matt Pike vocal. They way he stresses the chorus syllables on the downbeats is fucking crushing. Hopefully this video is a sign of a new batch of tunes coming... long overdue.
NOW YOU RE-A-LIZE!!!
I love this goddamn band.
Love this! 'Blessed Black Wings' was the first album I heard, and I never looked back! 🤘😈
Snakes For The Divine is perfect, but my favorite High On Fire song/riffs are in Frost Hammer!!!
I was abit late to the party. I discovered high on fire a year ago. I have listened to them everyday. Amazing interview and love both these guys.
Matt seems rejuvenated.
One of the heaviest breakdowns is from Fertile Green. Absolutely brutal! ruclips.net/video/fq1gb50iobU/видео.html
Damn he's looking good. Pleased for him.
That tone....🔥🔥🔥
The boys are back!!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
The Yeti is the heaviest for me, maybe their darkest song too.
~ Uncle Pike is the reason I want to learn guitar some day
14:02 so cool Matt mentioned The Haunted. They're awesome.
Not really
Blood From Zion. You know the riff.
The Riff Lord 🙌🙌🙌
Snakes for the devine, top 10 all time metal song. A masterwork with a holy power behind it.
Matt Pike looking like James Hetfields brother
💯
Damn Matt looks really good. Ready for a new one
PIKE IS LOOKING SO GOOD! PROCEED, MY DUDE!
Picking the heaviest HoF riffs is no easy task, but the outro riff to Thraft of Canaan is most definitely a contender in my book, the intro riff to Fury Whip and the ruthless Fertile Green main riff
Master of Fists, The Yeti and Thraft of Caanan are my picks.
For the love god bring back Dez!!! Best band of all time.
They kept mentioning him over and over, like he was still a member. That was a bit odd.
Des wants to watch his children grow. It's more important to him than the band or the road.
@@deanstanley2125 that is understandable
Such a cool video 🤘🔥🔥🔥
Saw them last night in Glasgow. They were great but the sound wasn’t the best.
Good to see Matt looking well.
😸👍🏻
That guitar is siiiick (high voice) Badass riffs from both the bottom end and high end. I haven't given one of these stamps of approval in a long time. Here it is: \m/ O_o \m/
Love that guitar
This guy's voice is very similar to Lemmy...it's Black Sabbath with Motorhead's vocals...it couldn't be better
Exactly right....so kick ass
High on fire and Mastodon colaboration ..... Imagine that🤩
My only complaint with this video is it isn't long enough! 😂 I could listen to them talk all day!
How have I never heard this dude before?
Dude starting to look and sound like lemmy
I think Matt and segier guitars is a match made in heavenly
Matt and Jeff are as unique as Al and Matt duo...
It really is too! Both GREAT combos.
Lemmy Kilmisterのような風格をMattに感じた。彼こそがロックンロールの継承者であると信じている。最高の爆音とリフと魂がある。地球はまだ大丈夫だ。
Matthew is such a distinguished gentleman in his high n tight shirt ...then he proceeds to play!
"Slave the Hive" is my favorite, but everything else is very close. Anyone know who built that gorgeous guitar Matt is playing?
Seger
Razor Hoof and Yeti are my favorites!!!
Love you from Turkey!!
HELL YES
Good to see Pike looking so healthy!
10,000 years on my top 10 riffs!
That Seger SG is so dope
Loved this video 🤘
High on Fire rule. Tons of great riffs to choose from.
Dii should be in there
This was nice, very nice.
Matt you look great brother.
