So cool, I had no idea that the riff from "Scarlett" was originally a Haunted Shores song. Dig.
yeah some of their songs in their album are all from their sub band haunted shores
That tone makes me very, very happy.
I neeeeeed to know what his rig is at that point in time. That tone satisfies me to no end.
Is now endorsed by leading brands in recording gear, has his own signature guitar and pickups (and good ones too if I may add). Still humble af, an inspiration to me and I'm sure many others.
i mean he really messed up with the Yvette young thing
@@RichardGarcia93 Seems nobody cares, he's still living life and posting images with his wife.
It's so nice to how far mark has come since then.
And 5 years later he is in one of the greatest bands ever , periphery :)
and is also one of the greatest guitarists!
that's a weird way to spell limp bizkit
@@louciferLGS stop
Fuck periphery. You don't need fucking three guitarists.

Absolutely incredible how much Mark has changed since this video was filmed. He's so much more comfortable and relaxed infront of a camera, his voice has changed, his picking style has changed. I always find it fascinating to see people develop as they age. Keep being awesome, Mark!
Knowing theory dosent have to diminish creativity , knowing how chords work is useful in experimenting and creating new sounds if you know. Rules you can break them . But still not musicians who are self taught or have little theory knowledge usually have a cool unique sound and create complex sick shit
True! I mean, just look at Eddie, he's created some of the sickest shit ever without having a clue how he did it.
+bluesboy18 he knows theory more than most probably but i bet as a musician you got to be aware that their are always those that are leaps and bounds beyond you in terms of musical development so its not uncommon to see such self deprecation
When I first heard that opening verse riff to Immaterial, my entire world of guitar playing changed forever. Still one of my favorite riffs to this day. Not entirely complicated but the progression is absolutely epic.
Fifty0ne Totally man, completely changed my writing style too
I like how one of the greatest and most creative guitarists I've ever seen says shit like "I don't know theory" hahaha

This man gave me a fist bump during a meet and greet when Periphery visited India to play a festival. To this day, I think of how kind, vibrant and zen he was then and always has been. Love you Mark.
Yo when did periphery come to India????
@@tanujcherian3911 Hi Tanuj! Nh7 Weekender Bangalore, December 2012 ☺️
This was Mark’s greatest distorted tone imo. The High end is so rich and it sounds amazing compared to the alpha and omega setZ
I find it incredibley fucking amazing that mark is able to come up with so many amazing sounding chords that flow so nicely together without knowing theory
post a song that you wrote on youtube thats better than this one hes showing us, then your comment would be more credible
arrestedshrimp It seems to me that the players who are making all of the cool songs/riffs/sounds are the guys who can't explain the theory behind what they are doing. The people who could (in theory) use the theory to come up with something amazing are the ones bitching in the comments sections of the internets. Musical theory is descriptive, it doesn't have to be prescriptive. After all, it's just a noise. It either connects with you or it doesn't, no matter if how you describe it.
gh3rulz69 "There are many more chords that could sound much better or much cooler" and you're saying that like it's a fact? Music is what comes from inside of you. Maybe he wont like the sound of the chords that you think sound "better or cooler". Different people, different tastes. You're the kind of person who thinks that knowing theory is what makes a musician good, which couldn't be farther from the truth. Just accept it, someone who has a natural ear for what they like is better than your theory junky self. Do you know what I mean Mr. "gh3rulz69" (that name gets me every time).
gh3rulz69
show one of Your phenomenal, "theory-packed" riffs or gtfo, You jealous piece of shit.
Well atleast for a fact I can say that music came before the theory about music existed..
wish I could travel back in time and show him what his life looks like in 2016...
it would be even crazier now haha
wish i could "turn" back time to the good old days......
Who gives a fuck if he doesn't know theory?! He writes music that sounds amazing - and that's all that matters!!!!
JW Corcoran he knows theory
He admits that he doesn't
who cares man....if someone knows a bunch of theories....but dont fuckin know how to apply that..............
he really knows...Jake and Misha also know theory...they just say they dont to look amazing xd
That’s what’s cool about it. He doesn’t know that he knows theory. It’s not something he thinks about, it’s something he feels naturally. Kurt Cobain had a very similar thing, where Nirvana’s songs are all very melodic and the chord changes are all great! But Cobain never knew a lick of actual theory, he just felt it. That’s how Mark is too
i love it when a musician such as yourself admits to not knowing theory but you could never assume that by listening, just shows the natural grip you have on the direction you go for
this dude takes the term riffage to a new level. he is truly a riffsmith.
Haunted Shores is so under rated i loved periphery most of all because mark joined , mark is one of the few guitarist i've heard that has such a unique style and when i show people haunted shores they fall in love with the band.
I was learning Pale Aura and now I see where that chord comes from during the intro riff! haha
Love Mark! Also love the Holdsworth Signature guitar. Makes me want to get one. They are a little high end for me but that helps with the heavier sound. As he's talking I can't help but be reminded of Keanu from Bill and Ted - Excellent!!
I dig Periphery but, fuck i miss Haunted Shores.
Mark said he would record new HS tunes as well as re-record old demos into an album after they're done with Juggernaut.
New EP out tomorrow
Bob Dole
Yep, gonna be so good
I heard they're making a new record.
Mark, you truly are an inspiration. Ever since i saw this video, ive wanted to be able to create such amazing chords, and use them HALF as well as you do. You really are having an impact with Haunted Shores. Well done.
Hi, I'm Mark. I guitar in Haunted Shores and...." wait let me stop you there. You play for Periphery now. Welcome to one of the most progressive newer bands today. You will be remembered for decades as "one of the guitarists for Periphery".
What I love so much about this post is how many people got the reference.
if anyone is wondering how he gets his tone, and why it sounds different, is because when he strums chords on the treble strings, hes basically holding his pick as if he were doing a pinch harmonic, but strummed instead of individually picked.
So glad Mark was brought into Periphery! This stuff is amazing!
Mark seems a lot more chilled out these days. He comes across a little nervous here
Oh mark. Before you even knew you'd end up designing the most balanced/aggressive sounding Seymour Duncan pups ever created.
I'm still hoping to one day hear Periphery recycle Immaterial into one of their albums just like they did with Scarlett. The first time I ever heard Immaterial I was totally fucking mind blown. I was listening to your typical metalcore stuff at the time like As I Lay Dying, Parkway Drive, stuff like that in the late 2000s. Randomly stumbled onto Haunted Shores when I was an active member of the harmony central forums and people were talking about it in the gear/rig section because Djenty tones had all of a sudden surged in popularity with the axe-fx becoming a thing, etc. I had heard nothing like what Mark was playing on Immaterial. Totally reshaped my approach to playing. Pretty much made me hit the reset button on guitar.
And now just a few months later it's been teased that it's being redone for an official Haunted Shores release, I'm very interested to see if they'll have a singer on it this time around
Oh man I bet you’re happy with the new Haunted Shores album
i love when bands write by what sounds good and not what some music teacher taught them... i love when mark says they are basically in the same scale
he does. Haunted Shores is a side project. Misha and Mark are main members but they can invite whoever they want for songs, Spencer for example. etc
I love watching videos of these musicians. There's always a diamond if the rough, now i found one of my new favorite bands.
Dude writes some of the most interesting riffs I've heard in a long time.
i try to play with these chords a lot
he remind me of scarecrow from batman
Hey guys, I just learned the tuning for scarlet. It's like drop C, CGCEGD.
@TheBlackDahlia815 The first riff is Scarlet by Haunted Shores. Scarlet will also be on the next Periphery album.
I am in LOVE with the tone. My sweet God, it gives me goosebumps.
Mark is a magician and his guitar is basically his magic device!
Change my mind.
The pickups is especially something people like to argue against. I like their pickups. I put an M22SD in an old cheap guitar once and it sounded killer with it.
If you'r talking about the rhythm solo, there is a video of him tracking it in the studio update, so your assumption is invalid. How do you know he didn't write more of the song? I def here mark in there. He was a big part of the album for sure. And Im really glad he is in Periphery as well.
Maybe because they re-recorded it for Periphery II, plus Mark is in Periphery now. The song Passenger is also from Haunted Shores I believe.
Also The Gods must be Crazy was written mostly by Jake, trying to write like Mark. He said his main influence was Mark's writing technique. Also if you listen to it, it has many of the same chords/progressions as Immaterial.
@basedgod293, you're right. What I'm saying is that a lot of people like to make the argument that carvin does not produce guitars, especially the holdsworth model, that will work for metal. This video helps prove those people wrong.
He may not know theory, but he knows how to play... AND THAT TONE. It makes me moist.
so right dude
elliot coleman's vocals are just fantastic, best I've ever heard I think I can say
but spencer is amazing as well, and fits periphery perfectly in my opinion
masterful guitar player
I love how he plays all these chords that I immediately recognise in Periphery II songs.
Prime example: 2:31, Mile Zero, middle section c:
please read my comment, he is a fantastic musician and guitar player, he just doesn't speak the standardized language I'm used to, and I agree with you, whenever I compose I avoid theory whenever possible I only bust it out when I get writers block, and thats one of the reason I love Periphery, because they don't know what they are doing (in the context of theory) they get a lot of really interesting sounds that make sense sonically but not theoretically
I really love his style, so elegant and clever.
So happy this guy's in Periphery now
it was originally a haunted shores song which was a project with mark and misha but they adapted it into a periphery song since they're both in the band now :D
Just to think, a year after this video was uploaded, this would be a Periphery song.
because it IS Scarlet by periphery. Originally written by Mark and Misha back when they were Haunted Shores.
i can't believe he doesnt know theory, hes just so good. one of my favorite guitar players!
Looks like a Peavey 5150 Combo or similar on the right there. Combine that with whatever his pickups are (probably some Bare Knuckles) and you'd get pretty close after some tweaking. I think the main aspect of his tone is that the mid range is defined so you can hear all the notes of chords, so basically don't scoop your EQ.
@Spliffor The voicing of chords is pretty much how you make the chord. I mean like if you take a normal G major chord, it contains the notes G,B and D. Now i can make a couple of different voicings with that. I can have the G note as my bass note (lowest note) then a B and then a D, or i can have the B in the bass and then a D and a G.
It's really taking one chord any playing it in different ways.
with this great guy in the band im sure the next records of periphery are going to be awesome
@SmileyMcGee900 you are correct to an extent. alot of great musicians dont know theory and i cant remember who said it i think it was devin townsend. he said learn enough theory to play the ideas you get in your head. which is the best advice because not everyone is great at theory. not arguing or anything just throwing an off shoot of your thought
Great chords. Really helps to add atmosphere while still retaining the metal aspect.
@PhantomNote I understand what you mean. Although i always look it the other way around. Theory is derived from what we play and what we hear. ^^
That first chord Mark talks about is an Fm11, if you guys wanna know (:
Haunted shores is a side project setup by Misha with Mark in. Since Mark and Misha are now both Periphery, and it didn't look like Haunted Shores was going anywhere with the success Periphery is having, they decided to use Scarlet. Haunted Shores was basically just another recording project of Misha's which I think he didn't want to associate with Periphery or Bulb. Scarlet was so popular and Spencer's vocals fitted so well that they just decided to record Sacarlet as a Periphery tune.
@Spliffor The way you play the chord. You can take one chord and play it many different ways. Its all about the shape.
@metallicat511 definitely not you can see the chord he's using is plugged into an amp at the lower right hand part of the video by his water.
OH MY GOD HE'S A LITTLE BABY
brilliant stuff. why are all those masters so shy and down to earth...
Pretty much instantly became my favourite guitar player. Wow
It's variation of drop C. It becomes an open suspended chord,
That one chord is basically the Achilles last stand opening chord. Jimmy adds his twist at the end. Pretty sick to hear it last generationally. Two of my all time favorite bands makes sense lol
just discovered this channel, I love it!
I love when mark stated extol as his main influence..i can tell there's a lot similarity on mark/ole borud playing 🤘🏻
Its an a minor shape with a raised 5th . dunno what that is but you just push your ring finger one fret further towards the bridge.
I love mark! Absolutely a great guitarplayer! Huge inspiration!
@sanntiimusic the first song is called immaterial, the second is passenger, they should all be on Haunted Shores Myspace, and you can buy them at a site called bandcamp, which they have a link to at thaeir myspace:0
Indeed it is. Extremely fun to play though. The periphery version with Spencer singing is even better, believe it or not.
Did he really say he knows no theory ? wow Good to see it's possible to write this kind of music without having to know theory really well
How does he even come up with melodies like that, its like from another dimensiion
simplicity is amazing
@cosmicjuju Masterclass (n.) - a class given to students of a particular discipline by an expert of that discipline
that opening riff is used in one of the periphery update vids.
love the tone!
i wish someone had the full tab of passenger. like EVERYTHING. it's an awesome song
Life would be bliss if Casey Sabol joined Haunted Shores and you got a whole band together and started touring. I don't think I'd listen to anything else if that happened!
i jusgt fel in love with the main riff from passenger! more videos like this please
dont know which you mean
but they're both fantastic
@Straixin Yeah I would feel really blind without theory. On the other hand, he probably figured all the "theory" things out by ear, which is basically what theory is. A description of how sounds works with our ears.
I cant imagine how misha and him just plays this amazing stuff with no theory
Looks like a stock carvin holdsworth signature guitar. Sounds amazing. Goes to show that a good amp and awesome player is all you need to get a wicked tone.
Interesting chords, well done Mrak. Xx
He played live with Periphery on the Frak the Gods tour!
I love his tone.
this is a miracle no fucking dislikes finally people have good taste in music
@Cairnivore haha me too. After seeing this it sounds even cooler than it did before.
Haunted Shores pretty much is periphery. Mark, bulb and with some vocal help from spencer from time to time. also this is now a periphery song he is playing. /bite
@SmileyMcGee900 Thanks man! I actually didn't notice there was a chart that came with the video, and I see that kind of chord (A chord lookin m7#5) when I play jazz a lot. So I just generalized what it was, but I guess it could be called a Gm11..I think it looses luster when it does. hah
@ridealot100 Don't be too worried, Periphery are using Haunted Shores material on their next album. (Scarlet)
@cheepy91 better yet the sus2 tuning is the tuning in "oslo" maybe not the other songs
@PedroMirrordead well i played these chords in drop b, it just sounded really beefy and deep. so i'd imagine that in drop a it would sound even more heavy, if you have the strings set to a decent action
@cheepy91 its actually Csus2 tuning
Scarlet is possibly the most beautiful song to ever be composed...
