I get so frustrated when I find amazing bands like this, YEARS after they've been killing it... Like WTF... How did I miss them?
SAME
Same bruhh
RUclips's algorithm is legit trash
Wait till you find about Dream Theater.
@@complex4059 i know dream theater
"So what style do you guys play?"
Polyphia: Melodic Flex
you know, when I was like 9 to 10 years old, I was super proud of being able to play the first 3 minutes of John Petruccis "Wishful Thinking" and I thought to myself "what if you'd combine dance music with cool ass guitar sounds? I'll do that one day!" . In the end , I had forgot about it and I've never done or even tried it, now, 10 years later, I've found out about Polyphia and I'm super happy :)
Nice pfp I love Deaf Grapes
@YoStefan This track actually has a lot of "Dance" (or EDM as a genre) elements in it. If you listen to hybrid trap, future bass or EDM in general, you will find these half time grooves, off beat kicks, chord stabs, some vocal chops, fast arps, glitches, some snare hits/sounds found in trap. As a producer myself, I really love what Polyphia do, their 2018 album was incredible
@@OmenAhead Yes it is 😍Please do check out my new track 'SWEET HOME" which has some Indian music over Trap beats 😃
It's cool that you guys got MatPat to dance for you
Hello internet, welcome to MUSIC THEORY, the show that's actually just 6 years of college classes that your dad tells you won't get you anywhere in life.
Lmao!
I think its cool for MatPat to get a chance to dance in Polyphia's video :)
Omg lmfao
This would be a lot funnier if the dude looked anything like matpat
Half the comments is the reason why I think this "outcast" mindset of people who listen to rock, alternative, prog rock/metal and other sub genres is incredibly outdated. You don't have to like a specific genre. In fact a mix of them might sound great!
For people who don't confine or limit themselves into specific genre, this is a breath of fresh air.
Definitely has the positive vibes to it!
Taking best of every aspect sounds good in concept that's but its easier said than done also, they came to be in a long span of time & can be identified with aspect of each craft so, for you to say they are outdated. I listen to every genre of music as I enjoy each aspect of them & I recently came across polyphia which i enjoyed it but they are alright, talented as of now but they aren't as new as genre defining or even close as you'r trying to... they'r mix of different genre of technique & beat which you can find dim a dozen specifically in digital genre.. so, I wouldn't necessarily say breath of fresh air but one of many that doesn't relate to any but also doesn't 've it own ID...
@@ddlcp you need to read what you wrote and edit x makes no sense!
@@TheLovewhite If everything made sense right away that would be the most dull aspect of things & that's not how this work. you need to read between the subtlelty to truly understand what I'm tryin to say. If you'r that dumb to figure it out then you can kindly fk off somewhere esle & tell it to someone who give a fk. I'll be waiting 3: )
Agree
This comment aged very well, they were pushing genres before the world was ready for it.
They just played this going into a commercial on Sunday Night Football. Hell yeah
Noticed that as well, had to come give it another listen lmao
Game was in Dallas, made a lot of sense to represent local
I wish I saw it :(
Sounds like a Shounen anime intro without the Japanese dude singing his lungs out.
lmaoo
literally oll polyphia song ever
There were some good comments so far, but none of them made me laugh out loud and kinda hard, like this one! Congrats homie! ...anime intro without the Japanese dude singing his lungs out!” Priceless comment man!
@@guitourney cause most of their chord progression are similarly of that jpop chord progression.
It looks like a japanese-aesthetic-Mountain Dew commercial.
露をする
😢😎
Idk what it is but YESSS!
?
Damn.
Who knew MatPat was an impressive dancer?
i was thinking the exact same thing haha
I thought I was the only one who was thinking that!
Personally it looks like Matt from Supermega
RIP, I accidentally copied this
Sometimes dancing is more science than art
I'm so impressed that you managed to get MatPat to dance for your video!
For real, you are so freaking talented and I feel inspired to learn guitar. I don't expect I'll ever get as good as any of you, but I just want to be maybe half as creative and be able to express myself in a way that surpasses language barriers
Damn matpat do be drippy
Ik people have mentioned this before, but dayum that guy looks almost exactly the same as MatPat with some shades on
Ory
I almost thought he was John Mayer for a second
@@WulfRyder Looool I see that too
Dude we gotta notify MatPat, it's gone on too long for him to not see this
@@madladmyles Indeed we do. DM SQUAD, do your thing
I thought this was gonna be an entirely new song and I'm sad that it isn't but this is still dope
You could say it's . . . LIT
This is what I exactly looking for. A remix between electronic and rock. Sounds fresh.
Progressive rock
Andrewo Mennah ☣ ikr
Until you you tube all their songs in one sitting and realize it's the same song
@@dylanosborne5038 You dumb AF lol
Dylan Osborne I don’t think you have ears
Having listened to Light hundreds of times casually doing schoolwork, I get goosebumps so many times during this song. I Don't even usually like remixes but the way they did this is so brilliant.
I always thought Light was the "light version of this song, I mean they're almost identical but Light doesn't have the same ending
This Video perfectly describes how you FEEL you look to others when listening to music and slightly bopping your head.
Never thought a djent/progressive instrumental band's music can combine with dance & electrico song. Really amazing , cheers from Taiwan!
not even djent, just a prog rock band
Well, they used to be djent.
Been in this scene for 7 years, noticed the chugging, 'djenty' shit first with slipknot and all that remains and trivium. Picked up structures' all of the above at 15. Volumes concept of dreaming at 16. Northlane, periphery, monuments, modern day babylon, Gideon (which is a stretch), substructures, erra, elitist, fuck you name it I jammed it hard at 17. And so on and so forth. I know all about this shit and polyphia is totally progressive metal. If not in thick complex phrasing or song structure, then in simple feel. This is a metal song. It does not have to be happy or even relatively orthodox. If nothing else, this is a black metal song in the sense that they do everything in an unorthodox fashion deliberately. Learn your music. First Internet rant in months, that felt great
No need to generalize their music style. They are just being distinctively 'Polyphia'. Also a fan from Taiwan here. \m/
Polyphia is my favorite instrumental boy band
lol
Sunday night football playing Polyphia?! I love it 🍻🍻
Scottie's solo is just so tasty. Especially that second bar phrase that starts at 1:47. It's such a great response to the first bar.
i didnt know plini could dance
hahahahaha can't stop laughing now, damn
hahaha plini dancin' !!!
Best comment lmao
André Muricy oh my god lol 😂😂
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thought that!
Polyphia, whatever you do, never lose your second measure bass fills 1:25
This is what started their transition from straight up prog metal to trap influenced prog rock
I imagine how much effort it took from the editor, who drew all the effects by hand.
He got a hand from the devil
pretty sure a lot of this is pretty simple after effects stuff
Kinda fruity, but I like the song and the editing. They're the first "metal" boy band I've seen. If Polyphia sees this, don't get too offended, you guys know what you're doing.
They're playing Instrumental Rock now (heavily influenced by pop and current trends, tho). You know there are many guitar-driven genres outside of Metal, right? They haven't been playing Metal/Metalcore since their EP.
Boy bands are made to appeal to teenage girls, and judging by the comment section, there doesn't seem to be many
+Rodrigo Pérez Yeah, I just didn't know how to categorize them. That's why I put metal in quotes.
+atextmessage If this were mainstream, they'd come flocking.
Go to their instagram. You'll find loads there.
I'll give the band credid for the music, but wow, this is the most hipster video I've even fucking seen!! LOL
So a good use of color and creativity versus everything being blacked out or black and white is now a "hipster" thing? Huh, nice to know...
Well, look at it: pink and baby blue colors ripped right out of a Megan Trainor video, the shirts and haircuts, some dude with earbuds break-dancing, electronic pop elements, and naming the fucking song out of all things "LIT"! This is PURE 2016 hipster! I'm not saying it's bad, it's just funny how spot on trendy and cheesy it is!
I definitely see your point for sure. I will agree with you about the clothes and naming it "LIT". Those in itself are hipster. Everything else I just see as a creative device. Just about all America music videos are super gloomy in someway. Here I see it as breaking a mold. For example, just about every Asian country use bright colors as an artistic device. Which is exactly what they are doing here.
What fucked up part of America are you watching from where that is the case?!
Kevin Bluhm gloomy is the wrong choice of word. Just the lack of color or vibrant color. Unless you're in the pop scene.
Woah!. Thank you baby Jesus. This generation is in good hands. Steve Vai vibes from the homies. So talented. The guitar lives on. These guys realized that you can make DJ SOUNDS and your own sound with an instrument. Tom Morello proved this in my generation and made it badass. Keep on going. I'm 38 and I enjoy this.
This comment aged well, my friend 🤌👌
This feels like the song that I can show to my friends to slowly get them to understand the beauty of guitars and actual instruments over sampled tracks. We'll have to wait and see if it goes passed that though....
how did it go? :D
@@TheTrooperMB Im curious how it went too!
Lol fck off, dont force others to listen to the genre you like. Everyone has their own taste.
@@njc119 wow man what's your deal? I took it as he wanted to share his love of this style with his friends and family members. I guess for some people it's so hard to not be an asshole.
yall know samples have actual instruments and guitars too right
I think that hairstyle is contagious. Now Scott has it too
Thanks for having me on this project! Video turned out great!!
1:54 Scottie's pickup change here is absolutely masterful
Just saw these guys live with The Contortionist and Between the Buried and Me in Ft Lauderdale. Polyphia was great, had a chance to talk to the lead guitar player afterwards. He came off really friendly, even offered me some advice for my own playing. This song was actually pretty amazing live. Not really a remix/edm fan but this was pretty incredible to see played. The drummer btw looked like he was really enjoying himself.
Talking to tim henson would be dope bro
@@SIC-zh3bl It was an epic show. Was on my birthday and BTBAM is my favorite band. My girlfriend bought me tickets as a surprise and they played Colors front to back. This is up there with the Summer Sanitarium tour for me as far as favorite line ups. Metallica, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Deftones, Mudvayne in Cicero, Illinois. Epic.
@@1984Musicforever sounds awesome, you lucky bastard
@@1984Musicforever also dope that you replied five years later
Dude these lyrics are LIT
If I started a minecraft channel I'd put this as my intro
Jackson McLister LMAO the best fucking comment

Wise words
I just burst out laughing at work.
HAHAHHAH

The lyrics remind me of my dad.
Same 🤣😭
Same bro but I got a new one
Nice original comment
@@felixsilvester518 nice sarcasm.
So sad 😢
Lophiile does an excellent job!
AMAZING!
Love you Scout!
Yes!!! I couldn't believe he helped on this song lol hes got some amazing work
imretarded97 Affirmative!
POLYPHISSUES Haha! 😂😁😁
Scout is Awesome!!
scout? Scott??
Joseph Zbacnik
Scout 😃
I thought it was a new song
Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Vitor Freire ya same
it isn't?
It's more like a new Mix, But hey at least it's something?
Light
Sound Guitar: Shred Metal
Melodías: progresivo
Beat: Hip Hop
Efectos de Sonido: Electrónico
Looks: K-Pop
Hotel: Trivago
I'm sure someone spotted this by now but this is a rearrangement of their original song "Light" on the Renaissance album. I feel slow for not noticing sooner but the moment I recognized the opening solo made me very happy. Love both versions, a full mix could be a fun idea. I want more of this from that album, a rearrange of Crush would be so awesome!
These Old Navy commercials are f**king LIT
this video is so ＡＥＳＴＨＥＴＩＣ
Your music is therapeutic to me. When im in a bad mood all i gotta do is play a few songs and it really helps me center myself. You guys are awesome keep at it
Whoever edited this... wow. Amazing job, I’d love to create a music video like this myself someday.
Credits:
Song: Polyphia
Coreography and casting: Stevie Wonder
thats offensive just wait until Stevie Wonder reads this message
@@czamarripa4 you're lucky stevie wonder doesn't read haters comments.
Come on guys! This is just a remix! Tim said years ago that they were giving their music a pop sensibility to make everyone dig it and i think that's a really good choice that has payed off and i'm happy they are having success, he said this while promoting Muse. I don't really find any dramatic differences from their style, come on! The sound is the same and they have always dressed in a pop-swag style, give them a break, the song is groovy, it's funky, it's technical but soulful and it's fucking good!!
Agreed , the mountain dew commercial commemt was pretty funny tho
This day in age? It’s hard to get the average joe who doesn’t care for this stuff to actually stay, listen, and pay attention to this kind of genre and style! My thing has always been that if I can get my parents to like “metal” then I did a good job. Lol
Nah this is better than muse
Unpopular opinion: This is one of my favourite Polyphia songs
Personally i love goose but i respect your opinion :) def either a 2nd or 3rd for me
Brandon C I’d have to say mine is nasty, but I’m pretty sure both of our favorites didn’t even exist when his comment was made lol
This is my 2nd favorite, nightmare is my number one.
Nasty is the best
This is a banger for sure
That bass line at 1:27 just sounds great. The song overall is great. Metal and electronic can work. Polyphia proves that. I just wish I had discovered this sooner.
Really dig the 80s pop color scheme in this one.
I do too, it's really goo
RetchedKat i think that part went right over everyone else's heads, judging by all of the whiners. Must be too young or they don't care for 80's culture.
A E S T H E T I C S
Blowtastic
I come back to this and not only do I end up appreciating it a bit more after loving their new sound in the last two albums, I really sit down and pay attention to the video and the editor in me from my time in high school... oh my lawdie. Bryce and Josh, you killed it here. The general flow, cuts and fx in-time with Vinny's dancing interspersed with the band is *mwah*, oh it's a joy to watch. ^-^
One of my favourite parts in the video is at 4:03 when the music crescendos and we cut to Vinny very slightly in the air and touching down in a triumphant pose. Just that little nuance of being in the air *enough* to feel a bit of *WEIGHT* and *IMPACT* as he hits the ground in-time with the band. Beautiful section to put it in too. And hey, even if it wasn't your choices to make the video how you did, I still see that hard work. :)
I been feeling like I needed to cry for the longest time. Sitting in my car, finally. Thank you 🧡
Can't actually believe that this beautiful piece of music has over 1,000 dislikes it's like modern day classical music in opinion.
2023, 5 million views, i think their virtuosity is irrefutable.
The people that dislike this are the same people that think Taylor Swift makes good music.
@@samhhaincat2703 musical genres are like archetypes and to think of them as good or bad is missing the point, Taylor Swift is the ultimate pop singer/songwriter she's amazing at what she does. And these guys are progrock virtuosos also amazing at what they do. both are accomplished in their field and that's all that really matters. I enjoy listening to both because I like music and if all music, and people, were the same that would be boring.
Polyphia is now Vaporwave
Mohammed Khan same for the renaissance album
future bass*
it's future bass
actually, its called p o l y p h i a w a v e
p o l y p h i a e s t h e t i c s
I love the enthusiasm from the drummer; never seen someone so crazy about their work considering none of it gets put into the final product
Maybe his drum heads are e-drums triggers
You guys are great and I’m beyond pissed that I haven’t heard of you guys until now. I have a lot of catching up to do.
True professionals and craftsmen, wonderful people to work with! Thank you Polyphia
WHAT NEW POLYPHIA IS LIT
The drummer sure was having fun playing in this video
Matpat got them moves🔥
way too many critics out there..... personally,....I f'n love the overall sound!!!!!!!!!

As an avid listener of both you guys and electronic music. I have no bad things I can say about this. Loved the song and the direction it took. Despite the hate coming from people who clearly lean to your older things, I'm glad you're stepping forward with something a bit new and trendy. It's awesome.

Smooth & Silky !
So I'm not the only one who does this when I listen to Poyphia? Good to know...
Wow rip I see why your drummer left.
Wilfred Had One out of genuine curiosity why do you think that is?
Uziel Yanez
The drummer himself said he didn't like how pop the band was getting
Lol😂
Idk why but that mix of the bass and lead reverberates within my soul so much. Just this song, it tickles me. I have 2 left feet and a right foot thrown in somewhere, look at this tri-pod dance......weeeeee!!!!
I used to walk by these places everyday. U of MN, US.
Damn, the vocals are amazing.
JN Perez 🤣👏👏👏
gua geri geri lu
polyphia became the Justin Bieber of progressive metal.
You guys Jam so good!
As a drummer myself...BIG thumbs up to the rhythm section *Bass included, and everyone for that matter for the sweet jams, this one included. Great rhythm all around... never would have tuned in though w/o the current drummer...great choice. As for the licks on guitar...lovely and intoxicating at the same time...I only play acoustic...so I can only watch in awe...but a big THANKS for making my world a better one.
Personally I love this. I'm glad they're doing what they want to do, and I'm not really understanding why people hate when bands evolve.
This is catchy af. Ty did a crazy good job of mixing this!
One of the best videos that has a complete storyline while only being instrumental
You guys nailing it ! Superb
super cool song and video this is why i love polyphia they are not scared of trying out new things and im going to see them in march LIT
this is like 4 minute long MS Paint ad
sick guitar playing! greetings from switzerland
I fucking love this jam. RUclips needs a heart button. Like doesn't cut it.
Felt like i was watching disney channel. Anyone else missing the ol "Inspire" EP?
Dominick Guerra Inspire as well as it's prior, Resurrect
Everything sounds so intricate and tight, I love this one guys.

They're so lit! Love them! Wow talented!
This music is everything I’ve ever needed. Like Coheed and Cambria without singing. Exactly my type mindless listening with amazing sound. So goooooood
can i get the lyrics please?
No lyric videos I can find bro sorry..
anybody know if luke Holland it's playing drums for Jason richardson on tour.
after he's done with The Word Alive. Which he stated he's leaving the band. More than likely he would tour with Jason if he ever does one next year.
Edward Sparks it's a joke bro. The internet is no place to try and be a hero.
wait you don't hear the singing?
ａｅｓｔｈｅｔｉｃ
This is the best music I have ever heard in my entire life
I could listen to this song on repeat all day. ❤️
Some of your melodic lines and they way they are harmonized remind me of dragonforce. Great song
That solo @ 1.43 by Scott is glorious
Damn, these guys are so good. Brilliant music.
Satriani, Vai, Mcalpine and the king Patitucci must be so happy and new breed is taking up the call!
