Sithu, your music is fucking incredible, this is truly some of the best stuff I've heard in awhile, it's all around beautiful while also being heavy af, and that solo by Aaron Marshall, was nearly the death of me. Fucking great job you guys!
+Sithu Aye its the same chords, but in a different order. and then obviously it comes back later with the non-diatonic stuff and its completely different.
The Fall of Troy song is a I, V, IV, III progression, this is I, V, VI, IV progression. It's not a different order of the same chords, it's a different progression entirely. The main similarity is the way the chords are picked, which is a 1st, 3rd, 7th pattern. P.S. I give theory lessons :P
Ive heard about you guys for a long time but never looked you up. my youtube random played this song. I don't know why I never bothered to look you up before!
I deadass thought it was some kind of transistor tutorial, being an electronics engineer I was expecting some electrical characteristic of BJT transistor (the one show on cover). Well, I was not disappointed.
+Bernsong She's that really sick and talented young Japanese drummer right? Proves that regardless of how good you think you are at something, there's probably a kid in China or Japan that is better than you
holy shit! this release will be tits! Sithu just gets better and better and better. Can someone please explain me how to to get that fluttering effect on the lead starting at 4:40 ? or how it is called? thanks! :)
the song is nice but i still don't like something about the guitar tones or maybe the mixing as a whole something about it just doesn't feel full and there's a lot of crunchy mid- to treble-range stuff dunno still a cool song
as an electronic engineer who plays guitar, I love this song twice as much !!!
Your collab with Aaron Marshall is the best...this and "Messenger" is some of your best work.
Aaron will end his career being one of the best guitar players of our generation. mark my words.
+Andrew Skoney He is radical.
+Andrew Skoney Aaron, Sithu, Plini, Holcomb, Misha, Jake are all so talented and truly belong to the greats of this generation.
+DanielRDB personally offended that Abasi isn't on that list
AccordionTheif I totally hate myself for forgetting him
DanielRDB its alright dawg, he's honestly good enough that it doesn't even need to be mentioned
Aaron, calm down, you don't have to destroy that solo! Too late, looks like he killed it.
Sithu, your music is fucking incredible, this is truly some of the best stuff I've heard in awhile, it's all around beautiful while also being heavy af, and that solo by Aaron Marshall, was nearly the death of me. Fucking great job you guys!
Aaron Marshall's solo at the very end is just next level out of this universe good and Sithu is no slouch either!
So much of the 'Sithu Aye' lick in here hahaha
Bweeew-deedelooo
i hear a bit of "message in a bottle" and a bit of guthrie's "fives" in the intro. might be just me tho
It's called the 'ayy-lmao' now
Aaron and Sithu is such a magnificent combo. Wp sirs!
Thank you for writing this song. I've been listening to it on repeat all week and it helps me focus. And that crunchy guitar tone slays.
AGHHHHHHH I LOVE THIS SO MUCH THANK YOU FOR LIVING SITHU
Awesome, I can't wait for the album!
Oh my, Aaron Marshall destroyed that
+McGlaven's SlotGasm I honestly think it's one of the best solos he has done! And it gets to be on one of my songs ^________^
+Sithu Aye agree. Love the new song man. The pulse throwback is awesome.
+Sithu Aye ^_____________^ mines bigger
+McGlaven's SlotGasm Sry I'm a bit deaf here...do you know which solo is Aaron's? Thanks!
+Jonathan Lin I believe Aaron's solo is the last at around 6:50 you can def tell the difference in styles !
MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE?! IS THAT YOU?!
That aside, this sounds amazing so far. :y
Intro is distractedly half of 'Shiny' but damn does it get heavy
This track should automatically play when any shitpost anime meme is posted
Love the cleans at 1:54
almost eight minutes of senpai-Sithu ft. Aaron awesomeness!
Can not wait!
Totally got a Fall of Troy vibe from the intro.
This is gire
Fire
+Tim Thornhill pretty sure the intro uses the same chord progression
+Leonardo Salazar Baeza Same time of chord, as in minor 7ths, but it's definitely not the same progression.
+Sithu Aye its the same chords, but in a different order. and then obviously it comes back later with the non-diatonic stuff and its completely different.

This song has the perfect balance of Melody and skill
5:51 is my favorite part. I love that chord progression
I love this stuff. Jazz-metal kind of stuff, I love it! Where can I find more of this?
Agreed, absolutely love it. Check out Polyphia and Intervals. Animals as Leaders, Jound, Skyhaven to name a few more, too.

Cannot wait for this release!!!!
OH YES. That fucking clip from soundcloud. Heavy as shit. I really hope this is a reference to the game Transistor.
brilliant work, hope one day to see your art performed in person.
it says in the description that this song is called spiral, i'm pretty sure it is not
Super track nevertheless!
+Hubert Rapinat Ctrl + C, Ctrl + V, Woe is Me

+Kevin Dekkers Goddammit
+Sithu Aye I can't stop laughing at that comment Gawdamn

another great song.. album is gonna be sweet!!
Another KILLER tune from SA!
Ive heard about you guys for a long time but never looked you up. my youtube random played this song. I don't know why I never bothered to look you up before!
I was just thinking how awesome your music would sound to a classic DBZ fight, hell even Naruto shippuden would be better with you behind the action !
nailed it. Sounds fantastic
I deadass thought it was some kind of transistor tutorial, being an electronics engineer I was expecting some electrical characteristic of BJT transistor (the one show on cover). Well, I was not disappointed.
Good shit. Replay spammed 5 factorial.
NPN!
Sithu you should work at least one song with Senri Kawaguchi on your next album.
+Bernsong She's that really sick and talented young Japanese drummer right?
Proves that regardless of how good you think you are at something, there's probably a kid in China or Japan that is better than you
+Sithu Aye
yes that's her :)
so sick!!! ^---------------^ 🙌
Man, you are my inspiration, love your work and your paying...Some day i want to play like you :,v...
Awesome song Btw n.n
Just a couple months and this album cover will be tattoo'd on my shoulder.. Love your work man!
+Jacob Jerue If you actually get the album cover tattooed on you, send me the pics and I will share them! And you will get my eternal love :D
Sure thing man! I also plan on getting "Invent the Universe"'s cover somewhere on my wrist :D
GREAT SONG !!!
you hit all my ear's g-spots!
Thing-o-Beauty.
And 6:50 -- just wow.
i like...i love the inclusion of a heavier rythm riffs, fucking amazing
Getting a Helix Nebula vibe
holy shit! this release will be tits! Sithu just gets better and better and better.
Can someone please explain me how to to get that fluttering effect on the lead starting at 4:40 ? or how it is called? thanks! :)
sounds like a standard tremolo effect.
Yup, it's a tremolo over an overdrive tone. It's a little bit different as I automated the levels of tremelo through out the solo
Thank you very much guys! I somehow never got to use a tremolo... until now. ;)
Did the intro remind anybody else of F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X by The Fall of Troy?
Yes!
A lot.
Yes
I'm saying!!!
message in a bottle...
The beginning reminds me of PS I Love You's 2012.
fkn goddamit yes
Instances of the Ayy-lmao in this track:
0:23 0:35 0:51 2:30 2:45 6:02 6:13
cool!
Are you science professor?
this sounds amazing in 7.1 suround sound for some reason
+Matt Booth That's pretty amazing if it does, since I mixed it in plebian stereo!
Me encanta.
that shiny intro thou #neverforget
Can you even call it a Day if you haven't listened Transient Transistors at least once?
This just unreal
this song sounds much to "shIny" from pulse, one of the best songs, this is excellent!
BJT
GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hell yeah
wish 1:54 - 2:17 was long last forever
such sweet tone!
This is like if Shiny met Tesseract's tone.
release it. now. pls.
Haven't I heard those 4 notes before?
6:39 is bae
AGREE
Yey!
A Dgenius!
0:22 hello there.
0:39 The power of love and friendship?
My influence
my nose is dj0nting
When does Aaron's solo begin
+chris b 6:50
Sithu Aye
epic, you two make a great duet.. Would like to see you guys on tour someday ;)
4:50 nice effect
can hear a lot of pulse influence
The intro kinda sounds like fcpremix by the fall of troy
that part around 4:50 wtf trippy as balls.
ahahah that lick is always present
Is this drop a flat?
+blink7777777 Yep!
Which guitar did you use?
Do parts of this sound similar to an anime intro to anyone else??
the song is nice but i still don't like something about the guitar tones or maybe the mixing as a whole
something about it just doesn't feel full
and there's a lot of crunchy mid- to treble-range stuff
dunno
still a cool song
+tarantularose apparently everyone loves it i guess
+blink7777777 sithu's music is good, and unfavorable guitar tones are at least tolerable, though they detract from it a bit
+tarantularose i don't know. It's hard listening to the Helix Nebula for the same reason. real hard
+blink7777777 I feel you
gotta be in the right mood
+tarantularose I bought this new one out of respect
Tabs?
Intro reminds me of F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X
6:51 - 7:42
Une prouesse technique
Already sounds badass 0:11
5:23 hairs will rise!
wait is this 8-string or not?
+Physis Zero This is on 7-string
+Sithu Aye Let me guess, split coils on that main riff? :D
