  • More like: Tosin abasi, Misha Monsoor (Periphery guitarist). JordanEberhardt (Scale the Summit bassist)Travis Richter (The Human Abstract singer from most recent album) And TRAVIS ORBIN, fuck portnoy.

  • Really cool stuff, reminds me a bit of Viinie Moore.

  • this is un FUCKIN real! all shall perish lucked out getting this dude

  • I look to the comments of people over who the better artists are to find really cool new bands/musicians to listen to :D Thank you all for acting like complete 12 year olds.

  • good playing but not very unique,sounds like a show off album with not very much draw.generic drums.there are some good parts i like though.

  • This is a really good instrumental release. There are a few moments where I'm turned off as a listener but for the most part I enjoy Mr. Artusato's music

  • Michael Keene - Guitar

    Misha Mansoor - Guitar

    Evan Brewer - Bass

    Cameron Losch - Drums

    Brandon Butler - Vocals

    Sumerian needs a super group.

  • @mitchchalifoux Or replace Misha with Francesco

  • @mitchchalifoux NOOOO

  • Kinda reminds me of Liquid Tension Experiment, but way better.

  • Godlike

    

  • There was a fucking Skrillex ad before this video. Goddamn, I hate that piece of shit.

  • Tosin is amazing.

    Francesco Artusato is amazing.

    It doesn't make a difference who's better, because they both can wipe their asses with all of you.

  • He has so much fucking stamina, what the fuck.

  • fuck these comments, its music, listen and stop worrying what everyone else is saying

  • stupid fucking trolls, listen to the god damn guitar or i keeeeeel you

  • I recognize the talent, but I do not enjoy this. It's majorly wankery and hardly seems like a composition.

  • @ClayAunkst 2deepforu?

  • @Megadedly lol. How about uninspired, bland, lacking, dull, created solely for the purpose of making money, boring, all the above? You wanna hear a 'deep' one man project listen to the algorithm, chimp spanner, or Farzad Golpayegani. I respectfully stated my distaste, does not mean I am incomprehensible of perceiving.

  • @ClayAunkst Chimp Spanner isn't that amazing in my opinion, especially the production, that was a shame. I wasn't trying to insult you...

  • @ClayAunkst Don't mind my opinion though, I'm just not much for djent in general.

  • @AfterTheVeilOfOsiris

    Tosin is better

  • fuck you all, get your heads out of your asses and listen to regular all shall perish, this shit is terrible and failure, nuff said.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Don't worry troll. I still love you.

  • yea ur right my bands called "GAGONFATONES(for all eternity!)"

  • Sorry but i totally do! As far as musicians skill well he can practice my him damnself and get with a better band to take metal to a new level as a whole. I did like All Shall Perish alot but have gotten into much better shit lately, how bout some Decrepit Birth or Flesh God Apocalypse for short. One more thing, yea the new Animals as Leaders blows this boring stuff away, like i said Art, get some lyrics this is boring zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

  • @LowdownRebel then wirtie your own music and post it, if its so boring im sure you can make something so much superior since you know everything

  • no one will ever be as amazing as jason becker.......

  • I like both, but Tosin is better.

  • ok this I DO love. is there anything similair to this ?

  • insane art is insane.

  • screw this too many instrumental bands anyways, this can be sang to WTF!? get started, if not DEATH the finda Progressive singer, SHIT we need that anyways American metal will keep gettin its ass handed to it my European artist until folks well i guess now vocalist stop being afarid to do new shit or turning into mothafucking stone sour (yea i said it corey) fuck radio cred.

  • @LowdownRebel You dont know what you're talking about. It has nothing to do with a singers ability, its about exploring the skill of the musicians. You want to talk about trying something new, then shut up and let the musicians work.

  • Let's just put Tosin Abasi, Francesco Artusato, Evan Brewer, Mike Portnoy, and Jake Luhrs in the same band. World problems solved.

  • 10+ METAL GAUNTLETS lol great idea!!!!@tubatrom360

  • @tubatrom360 *Phil Dubois-Coyne instead of Portnoy, and Stéphane Paré on vocals. THEN would the world's problems would be solved

  • @tubatrom360 mike portnoy? really?

  • @Discreetarcher3 REALLY.

  • @tubatrom360 FUCKING REALLY.1>?!??11?!?

  • @soldier14E Really -_________-

  • @tubatrom360 Mike Mangini instead of Portnoy... case closed (no offense dude Portnoy is an awesome drummer but Mangini still is way better)

  • @tubatrom360 :O !!

  • ...how the fuck can you compare this to Tosin? They sound absolutely nothing alike!

  • what's up with all the haters? if you could "fart better music than this" why don't you have any albums? why don't you even post your amazing songs?? cause you're a talentless trolling bitchmade pussy....that's why

  • its simple, if you dont like it, turn it off you fucking shit cunts

    he didnt write it for you, no one gives a fuck about you opinion you internet bitches

  • im sorry but this is known under the genre "terrible-not-metal" whoever enjoys this needs cementing in the floor neck down and bulldozed with a bag of stones.

  • hahahah oh, the brutality!!! FINISH HIM!!!@SwirlyBrokenHearts

  • This is the sound infatuated Dream Theater fans seem to describe to me all of the time. I could see eye-to-eye with them if it were so.. lol

  • i seriously fart better music than this bullcrap

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts You probably don't even play anything, except Lil Wayne beats on your boyfriends asscheeks. You faggot.

  • @jonathanadamwatson that made me lol

  • @jonathanadamwatson at least lil wayne is a TRILLION BILLION QUADRILLION times better than this Shitty music, not even music, not even metal and dont insult lil wayne cus hes fuking AMAzing, up there with gods.. tell me this is metal and i will castrate you in your sleep. listen to REGULAR whitechapel, this project fucking sucks ass like a saggy leaky tit. also i OBVIOUSLY have no interest in the same gender as myself, try harder.

  • @jonathanadamwatson how DARE you even THINK let alone COMPARE Lil wayne to this garbage and solo-wankfest. OH YAH CUZ LOTS OF NOTEZ PLAID FAZT MEANZ GUD MUZIC!! OMG YEEA! fucking get a grip YO. if you wanna be take seriously then listen to slipknot or metallica!! this "song" is a insult to integrity.

  • @jonathanadamwatson frank arsetuasu or whatever his gayname is, should be publicly executed by the neck for betraying and standing out of line of all shall perish. also shame is passed onto the unfortunate fanboy listener of this shit. sinful music. crimes of humanity. domestic guitar abuse. absolutely unforgivable frequency of abortion.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Dude, you're not even good at being a troll. Seriously, how do you even manage to fail at being a failure?

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts you have saved linkin park on your channel...you are not allowed to speak....your ass might make better music when you rip. but outside your ass, you couldnt even come close to making this or anything better.that is for sure. and if you could, you wouldnt have even made the comment

  • LAAAAAAAAAAAAAME

  • On topic, this is some really awesome shit. In terms of composition and skill, doesn't come close to Abasi, Petrucci or Loomis, but in his own right, very good. I get a Petrucci vibe from his solos and his triplet runs, which is a good thing. I hope he releases another solo album because it rocks.

  • im allowed an opinion and its terrible, doesnt make me a fucking troll, dont reply to me becuase im not here to keep up morale or make anyone happy drown in shit for all i care, i downloaded this album and its fuking painful and horrible to listen to, REGULAR all shall perish is much better, this is just solos all over the place and makes no sense, makes my ears sick.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Indeed, you're allowed an opinion. And I'm allowed to tell you that your opinion is shit.

  • @MudTide1993 fuck you

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Umadbro?

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts How does your mother love you?

  • @tubatrom360 do you have fingers bigger than your brain? because you should think before you type, dumb arse.

  • @SwirlyBrokenHearts Get the hell off this video. Just shut up. You don't like it, don't freaking comment on this video. Go enjoy your music, and leave us geniouses alone.

  • sophistication, that is...

  • I see no reasonable comparisons. This is distinctly unique. This is brilliantly structrued yet totally atrful and expressive. very cohesive, yet angular and unpredictable. Percussive, yet also open and melodic, and for fans of sheer technique, an "etude" of sorts. What could possibly be the problem????

    Some of these comments are like people who show up at wine tasting just wanting to get drunk - show a little sophistacation!

  • Comment removed

  • Hey little bitches, I've got news for you about how musicians work, we don't compare our selves to other guitarists and bitch about who's better. We make our music, appreciate others music, and talk to and enjoy other musicians because truthfully it doesn't fucking matter who's better.

  • a Jeff Loomis in the making

  • This guy is not really like Tosin at all, ha ha, I'm not sure why anyone would compare them? Besides, they are both great at what they do.

  • why is every single musician compared to every other musician on EVERY SINGLE SONG ON YOUTUBE?!?! this shit drives me crazy they're their own artist with their own style so get the fuck over yourselves. at least its not a genre war cuz those are worse. JUST LISTEN TO IT YOU FUCK HEADS!

  • @coryhawkins1 ..and there is always "the hero" on every page lol

  • @coryhawkins1 People like to critize bands by pairing them against other bands. But yes, the people on youtube who do it are just retarded, do it too much, and are too opinionated/make critizism a war.

  • LOL @ those Tosin<this guy comments. Such scene kids!

  • Comment removed

  • :10 stole that from man must die's "this day is black"

  • @Shtave you're an idiot. Shut the fuck up and listen.

  • @LordXennu lol mad

  • @Shtave single minded fuck

  • Who the fuck cares who's better? How about both phenomenal guitarists, Tosin and Fransesco, are here on this planet making music just for us.. Whether they are being piloted by aliens is another matter.

  • @AfterTheVeilOfOsiris +1 Really it's difficult to compare these guys since Artusato has a neo-classical style while Tosin's is more technical jazz fusion.

  • @Intorqueo629 Except it's not difficult to compare, Tosin Abasi is better at everything. Odd rhythms, tapping, shred. Not only that, the music itself is far more complex.

  • @AfterTheVeilOfOsiris and @ corhawkins1, I couldn't agree with you both any more than I do.

  • @AfterTheVeilOfOsiris I wouldn't say they're doing it for us...

  • @Megadedly cool story bro

  • @AfterTheVeilOfOsiris And you said that, why?

  • @dearpsychonaut Thank you for saying that :)

  • way better than Tosin, his stuff is boring and not that great and the 8 string makes it chuggy so it sounds like shitty deathcore

  • @MrConassassin

    Francesco Artusato plays in a deathcore band dude deathcore is great...

  • @VessUnless no all shall perish is going in the right direction of being a tech death metal band, animals as leaders is just annoying chug chug

  • @MrConassassin Erm... what? On impulse, ever heard it? :D

  • @MrConassassin LOL! ARE YOU FOR REAL? How about you go and YouTube "Modern Meat", and maybe "On Impulse", if that's not enough go try "Song of Solomon". Not enough? "Point to Point". Still not enough melody for ya? How about you listen to the whole Animals As Leaders album. There you go, now do you see how completely retarded your comment was? Hopefully in the time span of a month since you commented, you've regained your hearing and sanity, because Tosin, is not just "CHUG CHUG". Wtf is that?

  • @MrConassassin Yeah jazz metal/fusion sounds like deathcore....do you kids think before you say things?

  • ooo. it has a nice tone to it

  • Comment removed

  • Hes good, but im glad hes not Tosin.

  • @Friday13thTaurus And that statement right there displays to the entire world your complete lack of intelligence and thus this conversation finishes now, if not to be later resumed via myself and a brick wall. At least that way I'll get a decent response and might even learn a thing or two about good music.

    Good day.

  • @Friday13thTaurus Tosin is a world renowned virtuoso guitarist whom graduated from the Atlanta Institute of music and sells thousands of albums through prosthetic records every year to his plethora of fans. That's more than you can say for yourself, and no doubt will EVER be able to say for yourself! So, if Tosin and His fans are morons, than you Sir, must surely be within a category of stupidity all of your own.

    Learn to appreciate good music instead of dribbling shit on YouTube, good day. :)

  • @Friday13thTaurus Animals as Leaders are hands down amazing! Tosin is a virtuoso of which harbors a talent so immense and a playing style so immaculate that His compositions are literally pushing the envelope to a whole new level. I don't understand how a beautiful song such as 'Behaving Badly' or intense licks such as the intro of CAFO can be called lame.

  • shitty bandname

  • @sk8nmetalpsycho shitty youtube name. this is a solo project, not a band.

  • @sk8nmetalpsycho This is a solo project, not an entire band. DERP /facepalm

  • @Ollieaxman animals as leaders started as a solo project. /eatingyourpussy :)

  • @sk8nmetalpsycho of which planned to have a backing band when playing live, hence the BAND name. /whateven

  • @Friday13thTaurus I'm looking at it, is there a problem? Your blind not with vision, but with music. you Idiotic moron.

  • @Friday13thTaurus you must be gay.

  • @Friday13thTaurus dumbass

    

  • Animals as Leaders is definately not lame lol

  • Can't you all shut up and listen to metal?

    Jeez....

  • If you really know and had watched Francesco Artusato then you would know that he has a great technique and stop wasting time posting hate comments

  • who the fuck cares?? this is francesco artusato, unless your comment is about him than stfu kids.

  • After listening to animals as leaders I can't even enjoy this kind of music anymore.

  • @Kokashiba Animals as Leaders are so fucking good, but I still have to love this.

  • @Kokashiba After listening to this I can't even enjoy Tosin Abasi's stiff as fuck lead playing anymore.

  • it's like this guy thinks he's good at guitar or something lol

  • @AxisOfHumanity He's very humble but I suppose that's besides the point.

  • this guys pro mlg status son

    i wanna bear his seed

  • sorry its directed at the OBFUSCATION queer get an original handle you elitest

  • Chris Storey. All I have to say.

  • Abbreviate the band's name. Giggity.

    But in all seriousness, this is amazing and I love his tone.

  • @williamindragunawan TFAP? If "The" wasn't the first word of this album then maybe that would have been remotely "giggliable", yeah I just created a new word.

  • sounds so much like John 5... wow, dare i say 'ripoff'?

  • @pierceeze You're second part of that sentence makes it seem like you want to argue.

  • Hopefully this badass instrumental trendcontinues. AAL kick ass, this kicks ass...

    more this

  • You're all queers who know jack shit about music, much less progressive music such as this. Go suck off a camel.

  • @pppoooppp

    Lol.

    No, the only things bad about VoM is that the drums are ridiculously triggered, and the breakdowns are a bit stale. Other than that, their riffs are fucking mind boggling considering they have 1 guitarist.

  • @0BFUSCATION Not really. Thanks for trying.

  • @pppoooppp

    >Implying you could do better.

    Thanks for not trying, considering it'd prolly sound like shit.

  • @0BFUSCATION I could do a lot better than VoM. Not better than this guy in this video for sure, but no one could possibly tell me I'm worse than some generic death core band without me laughing my ass off at them. Once again, no and thank you for trying.

  • @pppoooppp youare such a hating faggot. step one form a band. step two just try to get signed. then maybe you can talk your shit. dumbass VoMs fucking amazing

  • @6stringedkillah lol someone got mad. I'm already in a band with some great musicians. Working on step 2 right now as a matter of fact. Vom sucks lol. They have one song that I like and that's it. Listen to Cynic.

  • @pppoooppp

    Veil of Maya is far more complex than cynic. Cynic is absurdly repetitive and Re-traced in air is fucking garbage.

  • @Misbeliefz LMFAO VOM doesnt even touch cynic

  • @james163163 Except their song structure is far more progressive, their rhythms are infinitely more complex, their riffs are far more intricate....the only thing you could really argue is that Cynic is more melodic, which veil of maya is definitely not lacking in the melodic department.

  • @Misbeliefz LOL their song structure is TERRIBLE! its just riff, riff, breakdown, riff, breakdown, breakdown. their rhythms, i will give you. but as far as riffing goes Cynic has them beat, VOM does have some great riffs on occasion, especially on their newest album. and youre forgetting another very important aspect of music, harmony, and there is not one metal band out there today that is playing chords like Cynic, oh yeah, and their vocals dont suck.

  • @Misbeliefz Their song structure is simplicity incarnate. Cynic are far more complex. Sweeps aren't difficult to play dude.

  • @Misbeliefz lol veil of maya is on focus ;P

  • ive just spent the best 6:40 Mins on my fucking life!

  • @antimatter07 he plaey all the lead guitar tracks from their newest release

  • I just found out this guy has only been with All Shall Perish since 2010, and hasn't yet appeared on any of their records. Not that it matters or anything, but it just makes the whole "guitarist from All Shall Perish" thing kind of weird...

  • Am I the only one that thinks the riff starting at around 47 seconds sounds a lot like something by lamb of god

    this is amazing though

  • How about a new G3 with Francesco Artusato, Kiko Loureiro and Jeff Loomis!?

  • also, case anyone was wondering, this is the lead guitarist of the band 'all shall perish'

  • I'm gettin a John Petrucci vibe here.

  • thats CRISP

  • well if you listen to the drums in this song, each cymbal hit on the same cymbal is the same exact sound. maybe quieter, but on a real cymbal no two hits sound that similar due to reverb. cymbals have to ring out and if they are hit before then the sound is a little sloppy, hence some live metal drummers owning 9 billion cymbals.

    anyways, cymbals are the simplest way to figure out if its fake drums or not.

  • @shanealameda oooooh so it IS a drum machine? Wow okay, I was pretty surprised. I am a drummer myself of 5 years and I honestly thought they sounded authentic

  • @shanealameda Unless the cymbals are triggered.  Then good luck.

  • @shanealameda well considering what you said about live drummers having tons of cymbals, how do you know the drummer didn't just record with a lot of cymbals?

  • @ACowWithTetanus What the dude said concerning "8 billion cymbals" makes no sense, the most you usually see is 16-18 anyways and that's usually very rare, only with guys like Flo or George.

    Anyway, I can recognize the Superior Drummer samples by ear, it's definitely programmed.

  • @Steve128967 for sure man... I program mine too for my solo stuff, you can tell right away : )

  • to the guy who said "i bet this guy gets pussy". im sure he does with hands that fast. the gfrls already done long before hes even started. haha

  • @Akhenaten93 Don't worry about Francesco not gettin pussy, he's married!

  • Drum machines? Doesn't sound like a drum machine, if so it'd be the nicest one I've ever heard. Anyone else actually think the drums on this song/album are not authentic?

  • @AUTUMNallyear yeah

    

  • @AUTUMNallyear definitely not authentic

  • This is fantastic guitar wizardry, with a great deal of emotion and feeling in MOST of the riffs, but it's lacking structure. The song makes me feel, but I don't what I'm supposed to feel, or where it's going.

    Either way, it's still brilliant, but it could have been spectacular.

    Looking forward to hearing more :)

  • You guys are all so funny. "Oh its math metal." "No its not its just a changing time signature." "Since when is that not math metal" .....why dont you all shut the fuck up and listen to the mans music and take what you like and leave what you dont like. Hes obvioulsy heavily influenced by Steve Vai and Joe Satriani. If any of you lames call Steve Vai "math Metal" I'll really know you are a bunch of fuckin posers throwing around silly labels trying to make yourselves sound intelligent.

  • @dearpsychonaut no one is expect tosin

  • Are these real drums? Sounds like samples.
