@MutilatedMetalMatt Pretty much, i had to film 7 or 8 lessons for the upcoming issues on the spot with no preparation (didnt have time to prepare, was recording an ep/preparing for our euro tour) and it was Guitar World, needless to say i was nervous. Sorry guys, im a guitarist, not a public speaker.
airwickyeager Yeah. Listen to him talk for a minute, then listen to Guthrie Govan speak (check 'Professor Shred' series). As you said, California, goddamn.
This guy's writing concept is perfect. No different from a classical composer with years of theory. Do what sounds good and give it a mood, idea to convey, or some purpose.
Yeah it’s pretty interesting, he basically uses his own version of theory without thinking much of it. Like talking about big movements, and large intervals, and accenting offbeats
+Kek5kopF I guess you don't know much about djent or progressive metal, but most of it is played on 6 strings. In fact more than half of Periphery's material is played on 6 string guitars.
No offense to anyone who is talking about Misha Mansoor saying " uh uh... like uh like yea uh....." I just wanna point out that this man is an absolute genius when it comes to music. His lack of theory is amazing! for someone to create beautiful melodies, timing ect... with out any kind of theory or anything!?!?!? he was born with a gift! this man deserves RESPECT! Hes not good at "speaking" hes good at playing guitar like a God. Listen to every word he is saying, and try to recognize his beautiful creativity.
guildgsx Hey, man. Have you cleaned up your attitude? The internet can see how much of a piece of trash you are from last year. In fact, I've got a question for you... Do you like our Cheeto in Chief? Is that where your racist undertones and dysfunctional brain sprouted from?
being a master of music theory can allow you to play some amazingly complex stuff. Yet if you focus too much on creating a theoretically sound sequence of notes you lose that raw emotion that really speaks to those without knowledge in theory. Its one of the main reasons why classical music tends to only be truly appreciated by people who are knowledgeable in theory.
Metanoia facts. its like classic music and metal are opposites. metal is pure creativity with little to no rules. i hate how half the people on here talking about how he should know theory. hes amazing without knowing theory, to each his own
@thelilEmoBoy I didnt form or start "Djent", and i wasnt trying to do anything other than just create music that sounded good to me and that i could be proud of, the same is as true back then as it is today. Label it progressive or djent or whatever you want, but its all about having no limitations to me...
You guys are a trip. This guy goes in detail as best he can to try and help others who are not so advanced, to help understand and teach what so many love about what hes doing. I totally appreciate the fact this guy takes his time to literally spill it all out for you here in the simplest form but yet others complain.. LOL WOW.
@JerkyChid And i also play and have deals with Ernie Ball, Decibel Guitars and Strandberg Guitars, working on something with Daemoness and Vigier at the moment as well. What can i say, i love amazing guitars!
Yes perhaps they could have done a bit of editing with the " likes" and " uh's" but he's a musician and a very skilled and creative one at that, not a news anchor... since when are guitar players public speakers, he speaks through his fingers.
I love how he puts into words the same thing i kinda do, i know some music theory, but i'm not really thinking about that when i write things, i just kinda play stuff and see how it sounds and if it works together, knowing some theory around time signatures is definitely useful, but Eddie Van Halen once said "if it sounds good it is good", sure its great to know tons of theory, but its also just good to experiment and see what sounds good, who says you have to stick to any rules, if you wanna stick a crazy solo on some strange traditional instrument no ones heard of into a metal song, if it sounds good, do it because who knows how much awesome music we wouldn't have now if people just listened when someone said "that not how you compose music" or "no you can't mix those styles of music".
Does he use a reverse pick attack on the low (top of neck) strings? If someone could answer, preferably Mischa, I would certainly appreciate it? Thanks
it means when the db reaches below a certain level it is cut out completely so you cant hear it. Thats why it sounds really snappy after he stops talking and there's no background noise
Is it possible to get a similar neck for a stratocaster? As the one he has in this video. Is it custom made perhaps? I'd really like one. The standard stratocaster ones are fugly.
Say you have a high gain distortion. It'll probably have a lot of hiss noise on it. A noise gate can remove that, but if it's too aggressive you end up with a very choppy, artificial sound as the gate starts to remove the start and end of the notes themselves.
I was distracted the whole video because of him not removing those stickers on his pickups :) Even though he enjoys it, I hate separating notes since it just makes things harder and requires more attention :P What's the brand of his guitar by the way? I didn't recognize that B symbol o.O
Guys, he's clearly talking about the riffs at a conceptual level. That that has merit should be fairly obvious. Just because it's neither a theory breakdown or a "here's the tab so you can play this too" session doesn't mean it isn't working as intended or doesn't have a purpose.
So djent his voice has a noise-gate!
He forms djent rhythms within his sentence
Lol!
lmfao
i am in tears
Dumb question but whats a noise gate? :P
He was speaking in Djent
Haha comment made my day
+Gilbert Riedel That's why his voice is so choppy and tight
Just laughed out loud! Love it.
His "uh, umms" are so tight and djent.
Richard Martinez thanks a lot....
uh uh u-u-u-u uh u-u u-u u-u uhuhuhuh ummm ummm umm umm umm um um um umu mmmum umm
Guitar World has the most aggressive gate on their vocals.
TheWonderfulMisterNoob At first i thought he was just talking really choppy.
+TheWonderfulMisterNoob seriously they need to CHILL OUT with that god damn
+Tyler Arndt Yeah I thought his voice was actually djenting
+Robbie Johnson comment of the year IMO
+Scias LMAO
@MutilatedMetalMatt Pretty much, i had to film 7 or 8 lessons for the upcoming issues on the spot with no preparation (didnt have time to prepare, was recording an ep/preparing for our euro tour) and it was Guitar World, needless to say i was nervous. Sorry guys, im a guitarist, not a public speaker.
I love you all
He's so djent that even his voice is noise gated
Like, like uh, like, uh, like, like uh, I'm like, uh. Like uh it's like. I'm like uh, uh, like like, uh...
California
airwickyeager
Yeah. Listen to him talk for a minute, then listen to Guthrie Govan speak (check 'Professor Shred' series). As you said, California, goddamn.
haha you forgot the "you know?" every 5 seconds
Like is this like sound like meshuggah minus the like talent?
You just created a Djent song!
He doesn't know theory either?? WHAT!!! Pure natural talent man
I know this is abit out of convo but would you mind checking our EP out aha! cheers x
***** Yeah cause you're a better guitarist than him in a more successful band? Eat shit.
***** lol, you watch a lot of Periphery-related videos just to throw shit at them?
HueNost He auditioned and was turned down.
This guy's writing concept is perfect. No different from a classical composer with years of theory. Do what sounds good and give it a mood, idea to convey, or some purpose.
Yeah it’s pretty interesting, he basically uses his own version of theory without thinking much of it. Like talking about big movements, and large intervals, and accenting offbeats
Misha is so djent that he even has a noise gate in his voice.
After reading the "uh" in the comments this is unwatchable
I couldn't agree more
+Mac I know, right? Fuckers >_>
Had the same feeling lol
Fun drinking game: take a shot every time Misha says "uh"
+Trevor Carrigan we don't want alcohol poisoning lol
So basically die?
Trevor Carrigan another way of telling someone to kill themselves
the engineers at guitar world are fucking with us with that gate on mishas voice -.-
-talks about djent
-holds 6 string ukulele in hands
mfw
Are you free texting on you tube? Normie
+Kek5kopF I guess you don't know much about djent or progressive metal, but most of it is played on 6 strings. In fact more than half of Periphery's material is played on 6 string guitars.
There are quite a few djent bands out there that use 6 strings.
He's missing two strings on his mandolin
@nugma Its frickin Guitar World, i was nervous as shit!
just so were clear, he says "uh/uhm" 39 times.
+Derek Maddox Thanks
+Derek Maddox Ahahahahha you are a genius!!!!
+Derek Maddox great guitarist xD not musically knowlegable or a good speaker but oh well xD
He said "like" 74 times more or less.
No offense to anyone who is talking about Misha Mansoor saying " uh uh... like uh like yea uh....." I just wanna point out that this man is an absolute genius when it comes to music. His lack of theory is amazing! for someone to create beautiful melodies, timing ect... with out any kind of theory or anything!?!?!? he was born with a gift! this man deserves RESPECT!

Hell yeah \m/\m/
guildgsx Great insults kid👍, I can't figure out if you're 12 or even younger.
guildgsx Sure bro, whatever you say so👍👌
guildgsx Hey, man. Have you cleaned up your attitude? The internet can see how much of a piece of trash you are from last year. In fact, I've got a question for you... Do you like our Cheeto in Chief? Is that where your racist undertones and dysfunctional brain sprouted from?
Let’s make one thing clear.
He’s not GOD!
1:57 lol my favorite part of the whole video! Makes me smile every time.
🤣

@@brunodelcarpio depends on what genre of metal your talking about
I know djent needs a pretty heavy noise gate, but does his voice really need it as well?
Damn man 😂😂
the noise gating on the fucking spoke voice is so superfluously annoying
@thelilEmoBoy I didnt form or start "Djent", and i wasnt trying to do anything other than just create music that sounded good to me and that i could be proud of, the same is as true back then as it is today. Label it progressive or djent or whatever you want, but its all about having no limitations to me...

Lol the noise gate tho
@JerkyChid And i also play and have deals with Ernie Ball, Decibel Guitars and Strandberg Guitars, working on something with Daemoness and Vigier at the moment as well. What can i say, i love amazing guitars!
Yes perhaps they could have done a bit of editing with the " likes" and " uh's" but he's a musician and a very skilled and creative one at that, not a news anchor... since when are guitar players public speakers, he speaks through his fingers.
@EvilFrees even if i work on improving myself, it wont change anything about this video now will it haha?
Such a cool guy. I will never forget when I saw them a month ago, the band's has great chemistry together too. They perform like true musicians.
What's that thing he's holding? With the 6 strings? Totally not djent.
I smell sarcasm...
I do smell sarcasm..
Master Exploder 2 haram 4 me
and its just like, djent sorta like.
@Patinator37 I LOVE IT!
I love how he puts into words the same thing i kinda do, i know some music theory, but i'm not really thinking about that when i write things, i just kinda play stuff and see how it sounds and if it works together, knowing some theory around time signatures is definitely useful, but Eddie Van Halen once said "if it sounds good it is good", sure its great to know tons of theory, but its also just good to experiment and see what sounds good, who says you have to stick to any rules, if you wanna stick a crazy solo on some strange traditional instrument no ones heard of into a metal song, if it sounds good, do it because who knows how much awesome music we wouldn't have now if people just listened when someone said "that not how you compose music" or "no you can't mix those styles of music".
Yeez the gate on his voice...
I like Misha's approach to creating riffs on guitar and his taste in guitars is similar to what I like to play.
Jesus these comments are killing me, I'm dying in my bed right now.
2:53 am. reads comments. "he's djenting with his voice." " like- uhm- word count" dj0nt i love it
Does he use a reverse pick attack on the low (top of neck) strings? If someone could answer, preferably Mischa, I would certainly appreciate it? Thanks
@SexyBac0n Thats exactly what i did, worked like a charm!
2.42 it's in 5/4 when you count the notes he plays in the sequence, but you have to land back in the one to go back to 4/4
What's the tuning?
Drop c
I like how he seems so natural. Cool guy
@DrAgeBender probably
it means when the db reaches below a certain level it is cut out completely so you cant hear it. Thats why it sounds really snappy after he stops talking and there's no background noise
Badass guitarist! Cool dude to boot! But he needs to say the word "like" a bit less. lol
Much respect, Misha Mansoor!
Is it possible to get a similar neck for a stratocaster? As the one he has in this video. Is it custom made perhaps? I'd really like one. The standard stratocaster ones are fugly.
the gate on his voice is SO harsh its cutting of his words :l
I think he was a little nervous.
agreed, it's not misha's fault. it's the sound engineer doing a bad job and having the threshold for the gate set too low.
Peter Tuthill yea u got that right. that gate is killing him.
1:36 from which song this chord was? I like it very much. Misha was preparing this chord since 1:16.
uh ya know. uh well melodies. uh. i like it ya know? uh yeah
What's guitar turning ? Thank you.
The "Uhh like.." man
Where can I buy that prs ?
You can put up a drinking game.
Every time he says "Like" -> drink
A person could die doing that. >.
I just recently started jamming periphery. i dont know what song that is in the beginning?
like?
@xThunderThumbsx theres a noise-gate on the mic-- i noticed it too-- whenever he says something below the noise gate, it cuts it off
Learn how to use a gate properly. You destroyed the lav clip's audio.
hahaha i was about to say that
Do you guys know what's the tuning of his guitar? Thanks.
That's a hard fucking noise gate on the voice haha
any one know what pickups hes using on this guitar and position?
IF this man says like one more time, I'm going to club a baby seal.
How can you Djent in Drop C?
Kinda... Like... You know.. Like.. Sort of.. Like..
Is there some sort of noise gate on this?
soo maybe we could stop focusing on his speech patterns and mannerisms and appreciate the FUCKING GUITAR PLAYING. . . that is all
I really like the sound on his guitar. I know nothing about effects, so could someone tell me what he uses?
Jason Gray darude djentstorm
sarin royce i literally spit all over my screen from laughter, thanks
So..uh..uh...like...uh..I....uh...play.....uh..like....like...ya know...guitar
can start playing guitar and only learn djent?
Uhh...like...uhh.
@WTSFguitar4EVR You think they make left-handed models in their custom shop?
WTH? even the voice was Djent? hahahahaha
Are there tabs for this song?
He needs to attend a college speech class to get rid of the "ummms" and "like" words.
I don't usually post gear questions but is that bernie rico he is playing? can't tell from all the "uhhhs"
What's the name of the guy he suggests listening to? I didn't catch it
Allan holdsworth.
+Shane Plante thanks mate
whats the song at the opening?
please specify the model of guitar
Guitar World why have you made it so you can hardly tell what he's saying?
What is a noise gate? someone help me
wat tuning does he play in anybody know
what kind of guitar is that?
Whats the song in the intro?
how many frets are those??
these djent set videos are really helping me out to learn! Hail from Brazil
What's the guitar tuned to?
Why does everyone run a tremolo if they never have the bar on it/use it?
Hey Misha! What scale are you playing in?!
what tuning is he in? drop C drop A?
Where can I get that noise gate that he’s using on his voice? Awesome 👏
@tehsimo that's why it sounds like a phone signal breaking up?
Say you have a high gain distortion. It'll probably have a lot of hiss noise on it. A noise gate can remove that, but if it's too aggressive you end up with a very choppy, artificial sound as the gate starts to remove the start and end of the notes themselves.
good lord!
how many frets this guitar have?
Whats the intro song?
I was distracted the whole video because of him not removing those stickers on his pickups :) Even though he enjoys it, I hate separating notes since it just makes things harder and requires more attention :P What's the brand of his guitar by the way? I didn't recognize that B symbol o.O

What's his guitar???
How does that go again?
What guitar is he using here?
What gear he use ???
@HiImJerry8 actually, this song is tuned in drop C like all his 6 string stuff... for the 7 string guitars they tune in drop G#
What tuning does he use?
How many frets?
