Well in music there's always a driving melody and accompaniment, a cantus firmus and counterpoint. If we apply the same concept to guitar, there's always going to be a lead and rhythm guitar at certain sections. The cool thing about CHON is that each song and section is different about which guitarist is doing the majority of playing, rather than your traditional lead/rhythm guitarists. This song for instance, is a Erick heavy song, but balances a little Mario with his solo in the middle.
BigElephant I heard in interview that they see the guitar like a piano one the left hand and the other guitar is the right hand that's why it sound particular.
The latter half of this song is absurdly good and painfully nostalgic for me. Chon at this time and around the time of Grow were the soundtrack to almost everything I did.. studying, cycling, smoking.. so important to me. I HOPE EVERYTHING IS GOOD FOR YOU BOYS🇬🇧
The solo of this song is prolly my favorite guitar solo of all time. I get emotional watching these guys play these days. Seems like so long ago when I first stumbled across a sub genre of music in my mom’s basement called “math rock” and I heard these guys playing amazingly. I am so sad that they have not been making new music… I miss my favorite band 😢
You’re not alone, this is one of my favorite solos, even math rock songs. I love the crazy tapping in the second half of the song, it literally sounds like an organ.
My kid saw you guys last night live in Cambridge, MA. He had an awesome time; he also plays guitar. We both love your material. This style of playing is way different than the stuff back in my day. Very few had this style back in the late 60's or 70's! Keep up the great work. Thanks!
+dontswin Welcome to the internet, where people are the true assholes they pretend not to be in public. Best not to reply to those kinds of comments, it only gives them what they want
@@dontswin Man just wanted to say that i appreciate your comment and that is nice that you and your kid are into Chon. Don´t listen to internet trolls, they are just sad people looking for attention. Have a great day!
When i saw these playthrough i cant explain with words what im feeling, is just magic, something from another world. Is a great feeling to be alive and see you 2 playing and making amazing music with hard riffs, good harmony, funny and hooky songs. Thank to y'all for these kind of videos. I'd love to see new playthrogh from the last album with a raw sound, nothing fancy tbh. Thanks for give me meaning to my life again.
you guys are so good at what you do! your music is REAL, you just sit and play it, nodding your heads, exactly like the record. I'm glad I can support you buying your EP on bandcamp, everybody should, c'mon guys!
Love this song so much as well with their other songs but what catches my eye is the background the environment is so chill and really fits in with the song.
look at Animals as Leaders....bands with no vocals just don't really blow up and start winning awards or making TV appearances. People don't appreciate music with no words like they use to. Just look at some of the great Pianists and Orchestras of today....heard of any? No? I thought so. Even Moondog who created several instruments and was a blind musical genius wasn't TV famous.
Here at 999,995k views, just barely short of a million views for one of my favorite CHON songs. Love the vibe and character this song illustrates. So much richness and lore.
Jay M bro idk ab that. There are vids of them as young teens playing harder stuff. there potential is not even realized yet. I’ve never people this nice with guitar. Pls this stuff is really hard to play. I’m nice with guitar but this shit is stupid.
Bands like Polyphia are talented just like these dudes but I have a stigma against bands who put a lot of time into video production. This guys are simple and do not need an extremely well-produced to get noticed or to be recognized. MUCH respect for the CHON bros
0:41 and the fast tapping in the second half of the song are the ones giving me the most trouble when learning this song. Probably one of their hardest songs to play but I love how it’s been challenging me to meet to the physical demands to play this song accurately and skillfully.
+John Doe His is guitar is RG321. It's has been discontinued and replaced by rg421 which is the updated version of that guitar but without neck+headstock binding.
Any chance there are DVDs of these playthroughs? Also, any plans to re-release this album on vinyl, it is a pretty coveted album and finding a copy that is not overpriced is not really an option. Love seeing the songs played, and still can watch your wicked Audiotree performance. Oh, Homey and Chon lp sound great on vinyl.
patrick jaroch i know this is really old comment but you should check out this band called Jank they have a song called The Hat Store, reminds me a lot of Zappa
Hey, you guys are amazing and I'd like to know what do you recommend for a beginner to learn guitar, I've played before but i sucked and I'd like a fresh start so tell me what can help me learn electric guitar whether it's from a book or video, anything helps.
I'll always have respect for bands that simply have two guitarists, no lead, no secondary

Can absolutely relate to this
What happened to them? It looks like they are not active anymore
@@ikarusxv they're on an indefinite hiatus. They've been making music since 2008 so I cant blame em
It was the exact same thing for me dude. I was obsessed with CHON. Even bought an Ibanez guitar and learned most of their songs in Newborn Sun
Same bro
Whether people say they dislike this style of music or not, you have to all agree that their overall musicianship and talent is outstanding
Oh yeah, definitely. I'm not a fan of the music, but damn they really are virtuosos. They have skill.
They're babies too, they can't be any older than 23
THEY DUUUUHNT MISS A SINGLE NOTE. Period.
wait there is people who dont like Chon? wow
@@kchennessey8781 Mario is 42 as of now......he was like 34 in this video...

That beautifully controlled chromatic slide at 2:12 is one of the tastiest seconds of guitar playing I've ever heard.
Those are our cousins
U should be proud!! Ur cousins have helped a lot of people and kicked ass with their music!!! 🙌🔥🔥🔥
Well hello Jessica 🤤
Its like jazz and blues and rock and metal at the same time. I have never see this. Amazing
My kid saw you guys last night live in Cambridge, MA. He had an awesome time; he also plays guitar. We both love your material. This style of playing is way different than the stuff back in my day. Very few had this style back in the late 60's or 70's! Keep up the great work. Thanks!
+dontswin Fuckin idiot
Why am I an idiot the band is long gone Doofus
No one cares who saw what
+dontswin Welcome to the internet, where people are the true assholes they pretend not to be in public. Best not to reply to those kinds of comments, it only gives them what they want
Thanks for the reminder, well said! I will take heed!
@@dontswin Man just wanted to say that i appreciate your comment and that is nice that you and your kid are into Chon. Don´t listen to internet trolls, they are just sad people looking for attention. Have a great day!
Chon songs are like Peter Pan
They never get old
They kind of have a jovial happy feel to their songs too like Peter Pan. Pure feel good music.
Truly timeless talent
u still listen to them
u mean peterpan Indonesia?
After 8 years, my jaw still drop watching this
You guys are so good that I'm never touching my guitar again.
RyunWould these guys are so good i cant stop touching my guitar.... ;p
+SameBasicRiff These guys are so good I can't stop touching myself.
+Spaceship Roderick LOL
these touchings are so guy i cant stop gooding myself
Don't give up bro. Express yourself to the fullest. I play as well, but the key is not to be intimidated by this awesome style of playing. Peace
2:17 absolute murder so good
Their chemistry is too good they're not human . #CHONisLife
Nah they're TOO human
0:41 So in unison that is seems unreal!

this band is absolutly insane, listen to them since the beginning and still love them like never. We need your come back !!
You guys were so great live! Thank you for existing.
The background synth in the bridge makes me feel like I'm playing the old Dragon Ball Z games that they used to make for PS2
I was thinking the same thing!!
Dude, there is no synth, it's all guitar palyed live! :)
I listen to these guys as a warm up before plini. They prep my bungehole so well
you guys are so good at what you do! your music is REAL, you just sit and play it, nodding your heads, exactly like the record. I'm glad I can support you buying your EP on bandcamp, everybody should, c'mon guys!
Insane stuff! Can't remember when was the last time I enjoyed so much watching a guitar playthrough! ^^
Love this song so much as well with their other songs but what catches my eye is the background the environment is so chill and really fits in with the song.
I just wanna be friends with these guys lmao their playing just makes me feel friendly lmao
mario will fight anyone in smash bro wiiU online lol.
One of the most original sounding bands I've heard in a while. Every musician is insanely talented and the writing is brilliant.
2022 still watching this… tremendous
This is like, the third video that I've watched by you. I'm really in love with your sound.
still don't get why they are not *more* famous
no vocals.
look at Animals as Leaders....bands with no vocals just don't really blow up and start winning awards or making TV appearances. People don't appreciate music with no words like they use to. Just look at some of the great Pianists and Orchestras of today....heard of any? No? I thought so. Even Moondog who created several instruments and was a blind musical genius wasn't TV famous.
Ginsuma still no vocals...
***** did my post get removed:/?
dreaminginnoother ... I guess. but I don't remember it... sorry.
Love that you guys are actually playing in your "playthroughs". And you absolutely nailed it. Great stuff.
Im so glad i discovered you guys, this is exactly what my library has been missing, ill be seeing you guys on march 18th!
Been jamming the EP all summer. You guys are great!
you guys are phenomenal. Loved your first UK show, please come back!
Here at 999,995k views, just barely short of a million views for one of my favorite CHON songs.
Love the vibe and character this song illustrates. So much richness and lore.
you guys are awesome, never cease to impress me!
Left dude's guitar is almost too gorgeous looking.
+A Witty Username It's psychedelicous
+Roly M psychadelectable even
Only if it didn't have those dumb shark tooth inlays..
Does anyone know the model?
It's an Ibanez Presteige with custom graphics from Seth's Guitars I believe.
honestly one of my favorite songs of all time! way too much talent!
NICE!
Reddit sent me here. Glad I came!
Excellent playing gentlemen!
Creative, melodic, interesting, very engaging original music!
one of the tastiest solos i've ever heard!
AMAZING never getting tired of Chon
I just bought my tickets for animals as leaders and these guys are opening and holy fuck am i excited now!
Was the show good?
Some of the greatest guitar compositions i've ever seen. this stuff would make steve vai get nervous
steve vai cant play like this for sure bro
@@diegozunigagtz4602 wut. I love these two but Steve Vai is insane.
Jay M bro idk ab that. There are vids of them as young teens playing harder stuff. there potential is not even realized yet. I’ve never people this nice with guitar. Pls this stuff is really hard to play. I’m nice with guitar but this shit is stupid.

This is the most amazing guitar playing ever. I just can't believe it.
i truly believe if the great classical composers were alive today they would shed manly tears at this art
IKR. I tell my self this all the time
What about the composers who are alive today who don't give a fuck about it? i TRULY believe your opinions are dog shit
Sweet! cant wait for a full length album!
The solo is freaking amazing.
dat Zelliack, those melodies remind me so much of them and because of that these guys are awesome.
just amazing!
0:41 and the fast tapping in the second half of the song are the ones giving me the most trouble when learning this song. Probably one of their hardest songs to play but I love how it’s been challenging me to meet to the physical demands to play this song accurately and skillfully.
my favorite part about chon is hearing the different guitar playing styles at once
Holy shit, this was so satisfying to watch.
When are you guys coming back to Gainesville Florida! Loved you guys at the High-Dive!
you guys just amazing.
Beautiful and amazing.
They are so amazing
Missing the homies rn. We need more CHON
I feel honored to be able to witness their growth in popularity.
just bought the guitar eric's playing. super satisfied
+Timothy Clark And what guitar might that be?
+John Doe His is guitar is RG321. It's has been discontinued and replaced by rg421 which is the updated version of that guitar but without neck+headstock binding.
Febrianda Rifqi Pratama Thanks dude, appreciate it.
OU BOI TRE AEM
He has custom pickups tho I'm using an Ibanez rg 6300 fm to play chon n it sounds amazing w stock pickups n a lil amp tuning
hey just found you guys seeing you play with Thomas Erak, bought your EP and newest CD! Amazing
Awesome, my favourite song on the album.
the drumming is really unique. i love it.
Does anybody what gauges they are using?

beautiful guitar, which model is the left ibanez (in case their different) ?
What guitar does the guy to the left have?
I love your music!
I really like the sound you guys are producing.
Im naming my kids eric and Mario and making them have great hair and play guitar
Did you have those kids yet
@@AlexAlvarez-ut8mw we need to find out
Love you guys 3
They need to make a dew dew riff. The hardcore CHON fans will understand.
I’m sure a lot of us have heard Newborn Sun.
which ibanez is Mario playing?
just damn your flawless transitions!
Awesome playing and awesome house/yard
Dudes, what a garden!
And needless to say,what a jam!
Like a space age Racer X from a new generation. Well done guys. Good stuff.
Any chance there are DVDs of these playthroughs? Also, any plans to re-release this album on vinyl, it is a pretty coveted album and finding a copy that is not overpriced is not really an option. Love seeing the songs played, and still can watch your wicked Audiotree performance. Oh, Homey and Chon lp sound great on vinyl.
1:18
solo: 2:00

What kind of pickups does Eric have on his RG421? They don't look like they are stock but I could be wrong :l
What's the tunning of your guitars?
finally kids are thinking musically like Zappa did in 67. love it. how tight you two are is redonkulous
patrick jaroch as if people stopped?
patrick jaroch i know this is really old comment but you should check out this band called Jank they have a song called The Hat Store, reminds me a lot of Zappa
I just randomly saw this comment, and now i really like jank, so thanks :)
@@IAIGIOINIY RIP JANK
Pretty close minded thing to say.
Amazing!
Loving it. Fantastic work :)
Hey, you guys are amazing and I'd like to know what do you recommend for a beginner to learn guitar, I've played before but i sucked and I'd like a fresh start so tell me what can help me learn electric guitar whether it's from a book or video, anything helps.
Talent is an understatement with these guys.
