Theres a point in guitar where you reach the technical ceiling and just have to keep exploring and being creative. You will then realize that there was no ceiling at all to begin with, it's a dark room never been visited before and that's why this band is so good. A mesh from metal, rock, trap, pop, hiphop influences. If this genre was known 50 years ago, it wouldn't be as interesting today. But the band gave birth to a new level of originality and creativity. Kudos to Tim, Scott, Clay, and Clay!
This track shows a lot of artistic growth (not their first time but still). Using virtuosity as a vehicle for amazing songs rather than using songs as a vehicle to show off virtuosity.
I agree. They provide actual melodies, many melodies in each song. Have not heard anything like this before 2012 or so. the combo is amazing....and the lack of bends makes it so smooth (I know they bend sometimes but not often). so good
@@schmiggidy Imagine thinking that music can be "summed up" in... chord progression. Lmao if there's one place where the "cover" is more important than the "book", it's music. The same 4 chords can give birth to a banger or to a lame ass pop song. Chord progression doesn't mean shit.
@@willowway3349 Korea makes anime too. And KPop hair is stylistically much like Protagonist hair in Japanese anime. It doesn't mean it's a japanese hair style.
This song has been stuck in my head nonstop. Then I sit down at my computer and think, "ehh... I could listen to Ego Death right about now" and then I listen to it 10 times in a row. Such a fun song to listen to.
@@schmiggidy It always strikes me as odd when someone calls these guys unoriginal, as though there's something wrong or lesser with the "tried and true". Everyone's sense of music is built upon the foundations of what they've heard before, and then they may or may not choose to iterate upon that with their own sound, and they certainly have a signature style, a sound that is distinctly them. It's fine if it's not to your taste, but calling it "unfortunate" or basic is rather disingenuous.
I’ve been listening to Polyphia for a little while now and I still can’t even imagine the amount of effort this guy must have put in to reach this level of guitar. I’m an amateur guitarist and half the time I still mute on the most basic chord transitions. It’s always seriously impressive to see how versatile a guitar can be between virtuosos.
If I could play like this I’d literally never stop. I keep imagining the things I could accomplish musically with Tim’s skill set under my fingers. But good god what a mountain to climb. I love the guitar so much.
There are good guitarists, elite guitarists, professional elite guitarists - and then the innovators. Guitarists that cannot be copied - because their sound is completely unique. The gap between players like Tim Henson, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Eddie Van Halen, Hendrix, Clapton, Gilmore and not so many more - is truly the apex of the pinnacle. Such a treat be alive and hear this talent unfold before us.
@@bcp5296d i think he means doing stuff we haven't seen before, obviously they can be replicated, but its there creativity and originality that sets them apart
polyphia is a really good band which introduced me to different type of music. I not only like the band members but the people who listen to them, because among them are some who have really good knowledge about music and they mention somethings which gets me to google those things and discover a whole new variety of music. I remember someone mentioned in a playthrough video of Tim that the song he was playing was inspired by paco de lucia, and I discovered flamenco. I can now play the melody of malaguena on my ukulele albeit it is now clean, I can play it that you recognize it is that. Thank you Polyphia I consider you artists with a significant impact on music culture. Take care guys and reader you also take care
He's the type of person that focuses on his passion, makes it his lifestyle, and works hard for it. Now that they're getting more trendier on RUclips, there's no other path than the top and attract the bigger mainstream audience. At the same time, he's still young. He's a single man sitting around in his studio all day touring the world occasionally, his lifestyle is defined for him to keep improving at his own genre.
@@AlexandrBorschchev Agreed, definitely a testament as to what can be achieved with persistence, time and copious amounts of passion. It's been awesome following along for the last 8 years

This song was exactly what I was craving from this album. It was executed really well and had a bit of everything without feeling forced or dragged out, just amazing musicianship through and through.
I genuinely think Tim is probably the best guitarist alive right now. I don’t mean even just purely technique because if you want that, then you probably want Tosin Abasi. I mean technique + catchy + beautiful, memorable guitar lines. I think before the end of his career, he’s easily going to be one of the most insane guitar players to ever live, and will be put in compilations of the best guitarists ever, up with people like Vai and Satch and the like.
@SoftserveSodium I’m sure there are people who are TECHNICALLY better. I just feel like Tim is on his way to being the best guitarist alive. If he doesn’t ever achieve top 5 best guitarists to ever live, I am CONFIDENT that he would be within top 10 or 20 AT MOST. He is well on his way to just absolute ridiculous level skill- not to mention HE WRITES THIS STUFF. lol
this literally vibrated my brain i couldn’t find the words to comment, also dude those weightless pulses at the ego death cut send me to the stratosphere *every* single time i hear them, it’s the hypest thing ever and a perfect creative touch
I also admire their delivery and attitude. Just totally chill while doing something absolutely amazing. Hanging out in sweats and fuzzy slippers. too cool.
I'm 47 and have studied the world of guitar my whole life ,Tim is this generations stand out he's is one in a billion. My favorite guitarists are Satch and vai because they write songs people actually care about so does Tim
@@Trahzy he is innovative and his style of playing influences a lot of similar artists and people playing at home. Just like Jimi Hendrix or Jimmy Page did in their prime.

@@agemiran1520 Here ya go bro I got a different video for you to watch. I made this video out of pure passion for Polyphia so I hope you give it a shot. ☺️ ruclips.net/video/svi4vHGUihI/видео.html
As a long time Polyphia fan glad you posted this , I have seen so many people doing reaction videos wondering if this was actually even playable live . Of course it is ! You guys are incredible !
We're very lucky and blessed that you exist in our lifetime. All your hardwork and creativity inspire us. Also, I like how Polyphia/Henson songs can be perceived many ways, even songs I've listened to for years still make me feel or understand it differently.
Its crazy how the first time I heard this song I wasn't really a fan, but it slowly grew on me and now, is my number 1 favourite polyphia song by a long way and now I struggle listening to anything else at all because this song is just so good. High expectations on the full album tim, you boys are are smashing it with the new releases. Goat seems so lacklustre in comparison to all these new songs
I am currently experiencing ego death and found my musical talent after getting off anti-depressants. My electric guitar arrives tomorrow. When I was up at 3 AM after listening to old emotional guitar songs and crying I searched for ego death and found this. Now I’m crying harder. Thank you.😢
It still seems impossible the way he just passively plays masterpieces 😂 everyone covering his pieces are always so rigid and focus and he just looks like it’s a warm up
It helps that he wrote it himself so it fits his thinking and musclememory and has been in his head for longer, but yeah that said even the intro part i have to concentrate to get it right-ish :)
I rarely comment but feel compelled to do so. You are undeniably one of the greatest guitarists of all time. Thank you sir, I am in awe. Keep rocking in the free world!
Math rock my ass. This kid is just laying down some old school chord progressions with some tasty licks on the side! Rock and Roll through and through...
wow! I wasn't expecting lightning fast arpeggios finger picked augmented with harmonics and percussive bass notes pounded out on the low strings! incredibly innovative!!!
Thank you so much for all you do. Everytime i dont feel motivated to practice i just watch one of your Videos and booom im motivated again to practice 3 hours just to get nearly as good as you are some day !
@@Verociity Same here he always did remind me of Chris Heria... one works out and one plays guitar. Side topic (I hate doing this) but I made a video for all Polyphia fans to watch.

@@dylan.emerson__ yeah I was afraid you were going to say that; I just learned the GOAT main riff and it was pretty darn easy. Only hiccup was getting a clean sweep on the fast bit. Ugh. I guess this’ll be weeks of my life to learn 😂😂
Studio is looking pristine! Looks cleaner than the local GP! If you get a chance could you do an update on the studio? Keep going dude you are destined for greatness!
I have never ever in my life (and music is a huge part of my life) seen anybody play the guitar on that level of utmost mastery. I consider my self lucky to have lived and witnessed a pro like Tim play at a magical level. This is sorcery. I love Jimmy Hendrix, Eddie VH, SRV and also Slash. But i believe that Tim is the GOAT.
Always pleasant to hear this song. To say it's a killer riff is an understatement. Tim is legit and Polyphia of course. He had a vision and he never gave up on his musical dreams and that in itself is what encourages me. The music that lies within will find a way out soon. Waiting on my audio interface and MIDI keyboard. Super anxious! I have played guitar 10 hours a day for a week straight. Practice makes permanent. I have only been on an electric for a couple months...long story but in a nutshell: i was locked up and did not have a guitar for a year, until i was blessed with a guitar, which lasted me the remainder of time i had left to do. Work on yourself. Dont take life for granted. Practice. Have discipline. Share your story with others for that will give them hope. The struggle is real though these wounds will heal. Pour the pain into music. Just got my first 7 string too! An Ibanez GRG. Unfortunately, it isnt the Tim Henson model... (sheds a tear). Not only is he super laid back and chill but he gives his time and does these videos to help other guitarists improve. Tim has influenced an entire generation of new guitar players. Can't wait to catch them in LA!
I too practice hours everyday, only in my case its been two years. I wish to be a guitarist too, I just dont know how to get there, and I dont know anyone who shares the same passion.
I just started playing guitar and finally you give me a part I can actually learn how to play with the intro!! lol thanks Tim you're my best friend here.

Love how he didn't play Steve's part. You can see the respect he has for him
Can confirm, my ego is dead. 💀
My hair game is not on Tim's level, so I have no idea if that's a sick style, or bed head...
I’ve been learning these riffs,all I can say is it is absolutely crazy😅😊
Harder than GOAT main riff? It sounds rough, but curious how tough it is to play.
Way harder, people overestimate goat it’s really not hard at all 🐐
@@dylan.emerson__ yeah I was afraid you were going to say that; I just learned the GOAT main riff and it was pretty darn easy. Only hiccup was getting a clean sweep on the fast bit.
Ugh. I guess this’ll be weeks of my life to learn 😂😂
@@selendile030 ya this one is super percussive and the string skips and harmonics are really hard to hit.
@@selendile030 I'd say this, Playing God and O.D are all harder than G.O.A.T.
Insane. Tim, you're on fire just pumping out the coolest stuff. This album is going to be a masterpiece
Studio is looking pristine! Looks cleaner than the local GP! If you get a chance could you do an update on the studio?
Keep going dude you are destined for greatness!
is it just me or he really looks like an anime protaginost
He totally does
Hi
I was an atheist until I saw Tim.
It's because he's PLAYING GOD
@@andreibaradayenka2016 horrible horrible joke. embarrassing.
Hi Tim, Just discovered you guys recently and oh boy am I enjoying the rabbit hole! Just gets better and better...
Dude you're awesome. So talented and make it look so smooth and easy...great work
Impressive , but useless ego tripping.
Doesn't get any more pretentious than this.
you’re right, your comment IS pretty pretentious.
I have never ever in my life (and music is a huge part of my life) seen anybody play the guitar on that level of utmost mastery. I consider my self lucky to have lived and witnessed a pro like Tim play at a magical level. This is sorcery. I love Jimmy Hendrix, Eddie VH, SRV and also Slash. But i believe that Tim is the GOAT.
Every video I find myself thinking I love the vibe of your session room. Don't know if it's in your place or the band's spot but I love it
Everytime i see something new by tim im just left in awe... this man.. he speaks from the heart straight into the strings
I'm obsessed with this man's talent 😩 can I steal it for a day?!
Listen to this with a metronome behind it these guys know what they are doing bro
Only a few more weeks. I can't wait.
if there is any words anyone is looking for when talking about the strings and tim"s playing of them it's "BUTTERY SMOOTH"
Ugh, I’m trying so hard to teach myself how to play guitar and I just can’t do it! Watching for some inspiration - this was amazing ❤
Always pleasant to hear this song. To say it's a killer riff is an understatement. Tim is legit and Polyphia of course. He had a vision and he never gave up on his musical dreams and that in itself is what encourages me. The music that lies within will find a way out soon. Waiting on my audio interface and MIDI keyboard. Super anxious! I have played guitar 10 hours a day for a week straight. Practice makes permanent. I have only been on an electric for a couple months...long story but in a nutshell: i was locked up and did not have a guitar for a year, until i was blessed with a guitar, which lasted me the remainder of time i had left to do. Work on yourself. Dont take life for granted. Practice. Have discipline. Share your story with others for that will give them hope. The struggle is real though these wounds will heal. Pour the pain into music. Just got my first 7 string too! An Ibanez GRG. Unfortunately, it isnt the Tim Henson model... (sheds a tear). Not only is he super laid back and chill but he gives his time and does these videos to help other guitarists improve. Tim has influenced an entire generation of new guitar players. Can't wait to catch them in LA!
I too practice hours everyday, only in my case its been two years. I wish to be a guitarist too, I just dont know how to get there, and I dont know anyone who shares the same passion.
I just started playing guitar and finally you give me a part I can actually learn how to play with the intro!! lol thanks Tim you're my best friend here.
