[guitarded927]

Thats fucking style right there!!! Take notes people!

[tytymarra]

The secret to his badassness, is in his soul patch

[LPSGRGES]

Our very own Canadian Satch! :P

[ma2jh]

they need to make a candyrat guitar hero...

[MarkAlan168]

this is great

[Nessi311]

Those jeans look a bit tight in the crotch area.

[rkg4mer]

nice bald spot lmao



[kulty94]

anyone know what guitar that red one is? not the ibanez hahaa



[JoshuaRowGuitarist]

@kulty94 perhaps a carvin?

[JoshuaRowGuitarist]

@kulty94 The guitar is a Godin Lgx SA,

I use GTR from wave for the overdrive, and the amp simulation.

And i use dealy and convultion Reverb from Cubase.

Thanks

sebastiencloutier28

thats actually what he said

[xDjRC]

tuning anyone?

[ikeman1156]

@xDjRC I believe it is standard. EADGBe since he is playing power chords the way you should in standard tuning at the beginning

[ApparitionGuitar]

@ikeman1156 well playing chords like that goes for any standerd tuning not just e standerd but im sure it is e standerd if not that than d standerd but im doubtful of that

[TheOnix123]

I just had my mind blown off, f@ck Slash.

[molomono]

@TheOnix123 Slash to rock is like Kesha to pop, credited for more than their worth. And overrated purely on the hype of what their are falsely credited for accomplishing.

[stupidname80]

Thank you sebastien and thank you candy rat records

[Cliffs0fDover]

This is fuckin wicked.

[GarretsShadow]

I think the album version of this song sounds way better than in this video, just my opinion

[Anthr0x07]

Le j'aime juste pour le T-shirt Led Zeppelin haha! x'D

[xr3n3g4d3x]

Please do more rock songs like this one Sebastien!

[JeffandKmusic]

I love That C# note first heard :29 seconds into the song. Anyone know if he gets that sound just from a lil nudge of the tremolo bar with the distortion on or am i missing something?

[xr3n3g4d3x]

@JeffandKmusic I think he presses the bar down to get that noise, at least that's what it looks like. But I haven't messed around with a floyd rose tremolo too much either.

[THEREALMOSH2]

@JeffandKmusic /watch?v=aPyeZzYckF8

[AphelionDustwake]

@JeffandKmusic You sort of Slap the Tremolo bar, gives a cool effect.

[Usgmusteret]

press 0

[jeanniephoenix]

Shouldn't it be "synchronicity?" :D

jks.

[incipio241]

when did candyrat get a distortion pedal!? :P

[TheVampireSteve]

...Teach me

[CoKilgannon]

He looks SOOOO much like Mic Todd from Coheed and Cambria. And they're both just as awesome as each other:D I wouldnt be surprised if they were long lost twins

[TheMadRabbi666]

Thumbs up if you noticed Antoine Dufour's cd "Existence" behind him at :31 :D:D:D

[julien8732]

tu ai supert lache pas seb.. tu ai mon idole

[mycahman]

why cant i write stuff like this

[blacksunprison13]

Is this the guy from the "greatest improv" video and the one where every instrument is played by his voice?

[TheMadRabbi666]

@blacksunprison13 No that guy is fagget compared to this guy. Sebastien doesnt need to make goofyass faces to be a musical badass, he just needs to play.

[SeBi2221996]

sounds like the starcraft 2 terran soundtrack

[wytwolfen]

Another great video from the frets down!

[mycahman]

1:12 - 2:03 is the best part.

i think

[hobomick]

I was trying to think why this sounds so different to the way I thought it did then I realised I'd never listened to it sober before haha. Fucking awesome song!

[Stormrider501]

Damn! This is so great!!!!!

[matrixd4]

team him up with cobus...... and the gods will weap

[hypr0040]

He's a pretty good guitar player, but the sound of this song is a little redundant to be honest. Him sitting on the sound board with that guitar is just so Canadian (cheesy).

[Gemanite55]

I like this recording more than the album recording. He just makes his guitar scream here sometimes and on the album it seems more tame.

[snoopie0420]

i cant beleive this guy isnt gettin as many hits as andy mckee

[rkg4mer]

@snoopie0420

it could be the bald spot.. lmao

[WickedCuba]

@snoopie0420

Americans have way more exposure. Andy was on TV shows all over the States. Candyrat and YouTube is pretty much all these Canadians have. Local radio stations would rather play sad commercial crap over and over again.

[snoopie0420]

@WickedCuba I AM CANADIAN DUDE pretty sure i know more about canadian media then american media

[snoopie0420]

@WickedCuba idiot the united states and canada are two different countries the media is different alot of shows that exist in one country dont in the other

[ChaotixMachine]

@WickedCuba Yeah, it sucks. I wish we had at least one Candyrat artist on the radio. Maybe then I'd actually bother tuning in.

[AnttilaPK]

@WickedCuba Think about it, Mckee became pretty much a phenomenon with hits around several million per video so of course he get's more attention. If any of these other guys did something people'd never seen before instead of being awesome with standard stuff they would get a lot more recognition. Not trolling, just laying it out.

[Lucifall]

@AnttilaPK

Mckee is awesome, but he doesn't does stuff all that different from the others artists in candyrat. Most of his sucess actually came from having one of his videos featured by YouTube.

[AnttilaPK]

@Lucifall Sure, he had the luck of getting a featured video which came out to a bigger audience whom probably had never seen anything like that before. I'm not saying he's unique in that way, he's just doing it so clean and crisp it's unbelievable, which made him a phenomenon through his featured video.

[Lucifall]

@AnttilaPK Don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of Mckee. He just got more exposure, that's all. Anyone in Candyrat deserves just as much as him.

[mycahman]

these are one of those rare songs that get you right in the beginning.... now im seriously considering buying the CD.

[brodaLDZ]

guy can make faces :DD

[balogie]

@brodaLDZ Spontaneous.....coming or resulting from a natural impulse or tendency; without effort or premeditation; natural and unconstrained!!!

[AgentMarathon1]

THIS is what's called GREAT CANADIAN TALENT!!!!!!

[MultiS3]

Trop Fort Men !! Eille Merci Encore Pour LA formation en sono !!

[sheloxxxx]

beautifull song :D

[elbeldos]

Can anybody write a tab for solo guitar? I can't find anything about it, and it's too difficult to me to pick out by ear

[wietjuh2711]

@elbeldos

You can buy the tab on candyrat.com ;)

[reymasterfrost]

@selfharmningiscool are you saying David Meshow is untalented? -.-"

[JEA21B]

@selfharmningiscool lol. Looks exactly like him though.

[JEA21B]

Is this the "best guitar improvisation ever" guy?

[ImperialstarTama]

@JEA21B Same mouthmovements, u're right :D but less hair :D

[EMGlespaulMESA]

im gonna go out on a limb here and assume you are an iron maiden fan!!! would i be correct???

[jacob285]

Isn't a hard song fore someone trained, but i must say.....

It sounds very good :-)

[PlayItAgainJohn11]

Interesting theme and some nice layers of guitars and some harmony in there.

[Gingerlord01]

where can i get tabs for this? (for free)

[kkooss16]

@Gingerlord01

you really should support the musicians, or yourself by learning by ear.

[Gingerlord01]

@kkooss16 yer... but i prefer to make my own stuff on acoustic than trying to tab stuff myself.. :(

[deideilil]

wow o_O I love this sound, whichs sounds like a saw *-*

[Jesrockr]

I think candyrat is breeding a clone army of awesome guitarists to overthrow democracy!

[GarretsShadow]

can see antoine dufours album in the background of the rythm guitar shot

[Beestieboy1]

Wow, dude just rocked his face off....

[Gingerlord01]

does anyone know how to do that little noise on the lead at 0.29?

[boredwan]

@Gingerlord01 it's edited in (I think it's a keyboard but it's not from a guitar)

[boredwan]

@Gingerlord01 sorry i was wrong. I re-watched it. 0:28 watch his left finger. The accent movement is what makes the tune

[Gingerlord01]

@boredwan hmmm, ok. im still a bit confused about it, but thnks man :) also, do u know if it has a specific name?

[Axel409]

@Gingerlord01 thats the flutter effect (or i think its called that) from his floyd rose tremolo, some of those trems can do that and its just created by the springs in the back of the guitar (if im not mistaken)

[Gingerlord01]

@Axel409 ok, kool. thnks :)

[MikeFink92]

@Gingerlord01 yeah its a tremolo technique which involves slapping the bar quickly and sorta flicking your wrist so it vibrates back and forth, creating a cool effect. Look at the song "Rock On" by Jerry C. Towards the middle when it really gets crazy he uses this effect... its absurd

[MikeFink92]

@MikeFink92 heres the video

youtube.com/watch?v=VQexVfIATC­w

Its around 2:15

[Gingerlord01]

@MikeFink92 thnks :)

[boredwan]

what do you suppose he's saying when he's playing? Cause his mouth is open and obviously talking through most of the song...

[Guitarmonzao]

@boredwan No I do it too, basiacally it's when you're sucked intot the music and you're feeling the notes.

[Guitarmonzao]

@boredwan No I do it too, basically it's when you're sucked into the music and you're feeling the notes.

[frizider2]

What's the effect from 0:17 to 0:30, maybe even a bit after it, it's like a doubled sound.. is it octaver or what?

[higofyp]

@frizider2 It's a backing track unfortunately, still amazing though.

[Ozznize]

he is an outstanding composer. you can see that when he plays fast he isnt as fluid as possible (dont get me wrong, he is still a good player) and yet still he makes far better music then some of the well known guitar wankers.

[kkooss16]

The guitar on its own is crazy good but it would be awesome if someone put some vocals to this

[Exerzet]

I know I'm not technicly using the word right, but all I can think is "Epic" ^^

[teracite]

i hate a rock like that but you are amazing guitare player :)

[Kangos7]

sebastien and steffen should get together and make a song

[GarretsShadow]

@Kangos7 with micheal manring on bass XD

[mycahman]

@Kangos7 fantastic idea

[joeyrockplayer]

@Kangos7 IT WOULD BE AWESOME :D!!!!!!

[wondubread]

This vid defines me. Guitar, A Led Zeppelin fan playing the guitar, a starcraft reference as the highest rated comment. amazing

[matrixd4]

92 people have no sense of an amazing guitar player

[yngwie8]

hes young dudes he wil endup playing banjo next

[Gamerdad81]

Do i hear a little bit of Steve Vai influence here??

[IPstandingStill]

cover up the guitar with your hand or something so you can only see his face throughout the video. it looks like he's doing dirty things with his loins. hehe, yeah I'm pretty mature

[Brandter]

@IPstandingStill

He looks like a german porn actor yes ;P

[hajibad277]

i had no idea tom cruise was so good at guitar

[meegmah]

very original

[gzuzfreak4life]

DUDE! we got the same last name hahaha sweet!!

[OdinAlderwood13]

I think this is the same guy from the DavidMeShow

[Guitarmonzao]

@OdinAlderwood13 You mean David,

This mans name is Sebastian lol

[Gwiynher]

@OdinAlderwood13 He is not but he looks like him!

[GrottoFace]

It really bothers me how stupid people can look when they focus so intensely on whatever they're doing (which a lot if not most people do when playing something difficult, unless they're trying to fake some kind of enthusiasm). Luckily I can just minimize the window and enjoy the music!

Great song to say the least!

[SnickersWasHere555]

@GrottoFace I always found it very entertaining to see what silly faces people make when they're playing or doing something. My favorite example is of a drumming video where he begins to play the pre-chorus and the look on his face is as if he just saw a SWEET pair of boobs.

[Znatnhos]

If you want it done right, do it yourself... but who did the drums?

[DannyDeathboy]

@Znatnhos probably just a backing track.

[frankruben64]

wow. i love ur music. great!!

[apachesavage]

Ibanez is the shit. as proven in this video...

[avery000]

OM GIVE BEEN WAITING FOR A GUY LIKE THIS TO SHOW UP ON CANDYRAT!!! I JUST CANT BELIEVE HOW LONG IT TOOK FOR ME TO FIND HIM :D

[LeDrummerDu88]

j'aime beaucoup la fin.. l'outro

[brkgzyr]

Don't say Steve Vai to everyone who plays Ibanez!

[infernakill]

@brkgzyr Steve Vai

[TriviumFan15]

Wow I never knew rock could make it with candyrat. Its a very risky change, but I absolutely LOVE IT! Damn,this guy rocks so hard.

[freeadplanet]

Just a Steve Vai retred

[MusicTennisMan]

love the song

[brasmssn]

Candyrat is awesome

[negrobazz]

niiice!!!

[soad123rock]

incredible 

[FutureWarhead]

u sir have a gift:P

[rdboy102]

[72enjoi]

[DPAnderson2010]

Everything after 2:59 sucks..

[sommervilleTRS117]

@DPAnderson2010 lol ahahahah

[carlosewm]

How dare you... uh never mind lol...

[LordRavenX8]

@DPAnderson2010 clever, i like what you did there haha

[IxMAKExUxGOxLOL]

@DPAnderson2010 I second that.

[AlecHarmon1993]

@DPAnderson2010

I agree

[iFart3d5x]

@DPAnderson2010 That's deep bro

[GarretsShadow]

@DPAnderson2010 actually i think that final one second is pretty badass

[Drhodes1]

I'm in love with this song.

[JetJoeStudios]

fuck! candyrat needs to learn to advertise their shit better! 20,000,000 views for some bullshit miley fuckin cyrus song, and this shit only gets like 250,000! Something very wrong with societys hearing, i believe.

[guitarrhythymfool]

@JetJoeStudios Ikr? The artists on Candyrat have become some of my all time favorite guitar players, and I wish that they would get some airplay on US radio, as well as for them to just become more well known.

[Blackout8323]

@guitarrhythymfool hi(:

[guitarrhythymfool]

@Blackout8323 Lol hey dude

[dsigirllover]

that is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cannedheat24]

@applesmurfen lol 

[Deftones202]

Awesome guitarist! But really it's the ripped jeans, soul patch, and bald spot that sells it all! =P

[marcusmarkmus]

@Deftones202 hahahaha! :P

[doOoskoOo]

this guy looks like DAVE WEINER with longer hair!

[ShreddFly]

this guy really has chops, very melodic. and the songs are great.

[Adventuretk]

What is the black guitar?

[apersonsname1]

@Adventuretk Its an Ibanez RG series.. i think, but, he's definitely changed out the humbuckers... I have an RG5, so i know its not that one, but it might be an RG 2 or 3...

[Adventuretk]

What is the black guitar?

[FrozenGoods101]

That was pretty smooth at the end...just removes the guitar and walks off. lol

This is a well put together song. XD

[n1c0sax0]

The theme is awesome ! Good job guy !

[MySixSecret]

That "RrRRRrRRrr" sound is sounds just Fucking awesome!!!

[PTHBFMV13]

kinda looks like a non jacked mark whalberg

[creep245]

great music, great performance, great guy

anyone has tabs? :)

[Liphik]

Wish I could do half of that

[layserx]

Boldie lol ~~ :D

[azahnd82]

Totally reminds me of the Terran music from Starcraft...

"You want a piece of me, boy?"

[bumperx619]

@azahnd82 OMG i've been thinking that too ! If possible could you link me the exact song I think we both have in mind?

[onsproductionz]

@bumperx619

[JUMBOpin]

@azahnd82 bwahahahah exactly...i thought the same thing...it would rock if the music was just like this for SC2 ...i can'twait for that shit to come out!!!!!!!!!1aaaaaaaaah! the best RTS...ever

[Malbecsky]

@azahnd82 Holy crap you're right!!

[ZanNNNNG]

@azahnd82 i wish it was the Terran music for SC

[simonGNL]

@azahnd82 Yeah i was thinking of it!!! or maybe Dynasty Wariors

[RedEyes987]

@azahnd82 lol it really does sound like the music from starcraft. Ah, the memories

[boredwan]

@azahnd82 THOR IS HERE!

[Will22446688]
