[zurdomusic23]

Es un Buen Acople y pega muy bien todos los instrumentos

[DISARRAY3]

brilliant.



[Jarshsopinion]

I like how you added your own touch to a metal\Hard rock stlye, Very nice!

[IsaacHorneMusic]

Do you use a compressor pedal for your clean tone? Its just your clean sounds a lot like mine...

[MADhatterPAUL]

This is brilliant, loved it.

[metalblast1]

Dude, you make me want to just quit. could you do the rest of us a favor and NOT be so talented for even five minutes? jeez.

[chaney231]

[NewShred88]

[StuntManBobK]

It's people like you that inspire me to practice, play, and write. You're the man!

[Siriusveien]

what kind of recording program do you use? Nice song, that acoutic start is totally amazing! *adding to favorites*

[UndisposedRecords]

Tabs? It would be greatly appreciated. Great job man, I love all of your stuff

[enjoipanda95]

between the buried and me*

[enjoipanda95]

Matthew McGhee, what can you not do? That was beautiful. It made me think of between the buried in me. If ever for some god awful reason btbam loses dusty or Paul Waggoner, you should replace them

[pesics]

absolutely fantastic!

[exWolf88]

I...am foaming at the mouth. I can totally hear the dude from As I Lay Dying doing vox for this song, not that it needs it!

[shadowvic56]

8 strings guitar and 6 strings bass lol...

[nenntmichbond]

Awesome song, but the transition is not that nice ><

[djinn314]

MORE METAL!

[FalkvonKronberg]

This is bad ass. Ive often thought about making a vid like this, with split screen, but I can only play drums. But you can do it all, so much respect.

[migueliceangel]

I sent u a video respond of what I made with this song, i love ur music man, keep it up :)

[Dededheu]

This is amazing ! :O

[minazmorgul]

Would have liked it more if you would bang your head more :)

[tjompiskompis]

great fucking job!! :)

[migueliceangel]

dude, u rock, can i put this song on one of my videos? plz reply

[StupidHatMatt]

@migueliceangel Sure man

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

this is completely awesome you should get a buddy to lay down some vocals over this man cuz this is intense \m/

[superguitarmaniac100]

Everyone loves instrumentals but this time I think you have really outdone yourself. Awesome job.

[jamestheflyingswan]

Great vid mate,and well played.

[Burnguitarcovers]

Man i love this, you have inspired me to record my own song. Really great work

[tobalishus21]

Dude, your music is amazing, i've been a drummer for 10 years and i've spent all day just jamming along to this song, fully in love with this song, this is what metal music should be like nowadays! you sir are incredibly talented!

[Ulquiorra77777]

Can you put out some taps to this?

[WolverineWepX]

Oh my god... Thank you for sending me a friend request.... your music is AMAZING....

[StupidHatMatt]

@chsay313 No problem man. Yeah, I play 99% all soft and laid back music but now and again it's good to rock out.

[Gecc]

Aaaaaaahaaaawsomme!!!

[matotuHELL]

Oh, you´re so talented musician!

[StupidHatMatt]

@matotuHELL Thanks alot dude

[kalakuttakamina]

Hey, how is the drumkit? 

[StupidHatMatt]

@kalakuttakamina It's gone, I needed the money so no more drums :(

[FoaL1991]

I clicked for "Original Metal Song." Stayed for the part after 2:00.

[ElementumIgnis]

Amazing I love it <3

[DCkevantnet]

What tuning is the bass in?

[StupidHatMatt]

@DCkevantnet I think it was BEADGCF

[metalkingbeast6]

its great, just a bit to predictable for me :) it sounds really, good now however, as I write this!

[StupidHatMatt]

All of songs are now available on iTunes. Money is tight now and I hope You guys understand why I have to try and make some money on my music. Thanks again for all of the support :)

[guitarboy202]

@StupidHatMatt how do you get ur music on to itunes man?

[StupidHatMatt]

@guitarboy202 Are you asking how to buy it or how did I get my music on there?

[guitarboy202]

@StupidHatMatt how'd u get it on there

[StupidHatMatt]

@guitarboy202 Go to CDbaby dot com and check them out

[PinkDrumzz]

dude your an amazing musician! people like you should be getting paid, not those piece of shit mainstream artist with no talent (cough lil wayne trying to play guitar) lol

[zfeckman2011]

@PinkDrumzz i completely agree it should be the people who r good musicians, not plain repitition gettin paid its ridicuous in todays society for people who sing about geeric things, never having new ideas, never even writing their own songs, who should be cast out in the real world and try to make a living. the people who can, should be rewarded

[Direksone]

Seriously awesome!

[travis5352]

i just realized.. ur strumming for once :P

[StupidHatMatt]

@travis5352 Haha, yes

[Kyoshin89SLAVE]

Epicness..

[OstentatiousTyler]

The fact that you have a Stewie Doll just makes this 10x better...

[StupidHatMatt]

@OstentatiousTyler Stewie is pretty sweet, you are right.

[bryanhutt1]

I like

[MrAllu666]

my brains blow out everytime i hear this

[SchecterShredder006]

ummm why do you not have a HUGE high dollar recording contract? i mean JESUS, with all the shit music out there you are a diamond in the rough

[thirtysilver]

@SchecterShredder006 Because getting signed isn't about being good. 5% of being a professional musician is actually making music. 95% of it is knowing the right people and being in the right place at the right time - and, of course, kissing ass and sucking dick don't hurt your chances either. I've been trying to get signed for 11 years, and this is what I've learned about the music industry: it's mostly industry and not much music.

[baseballad333]

The song is awesome, and it just sounds great the way u incorporate the lighter stuff im used to hearing from you (during the end)

[TheHybridStudio]

Hey Matt just found this one awesome work bro.

[DuxBass]

Nice groove man. Sounds great

[OxidationShed]

Sounds very much like In Flames when they weren't shit. Excellent work

[RyuuTheReaper]

@OxidationShed what do you mean? this reminded me much of a mix between the new and the old!! either way its still awesome!

[kalakuttakamina]

@OxidationShed I concur.

[StupidHatMatt]

@OxidationShed Never heard of them, I'll have to check them out. Thanks!

[kaimu1992]

Damn, dude! I have listened to it numerous times! I love it!

[guitarfreak8900]

that was great, I was expecting you to shred that motherfucker during the solo though.

[atenakos1]

You're a great musician!

[migueliceangel]

damn....goood, thumbs up, subbed and of course ima share it on facebook

[AlexCavaco7]

0:48 Stewie Loves the music (he looks so stoned 8D)!!

You're amazing man, Keep Rocking!!

[terribletube2]

wooooowww yeah!!! great job man, awesome o_o

[telepgm]

Matt, you are a one man "In Flames". Hail from Singapore! - Telepgm

[gary1976us]

Awesome tune and mix man, what amp model do you use for the bass guitar on the line 6 pod hd500?

[thericecrispy2]

Nice Boston t-shirt

[biosguitar]

The title is great, I mean, the song is good and I liked it, but "visions" really gives a whole new meaning to everything I heard on the song.. amazing!

[94GuitarLord]

How many instruments can you play and what are they?

[ZombiesWerePeopleToo]

I love your stuff man, your music is pretty much exactly what kind of thing I'm trying to write myself, but you're much better at it than I am. Definitely one of my influences

[dymion01]

amazing song man, congratulations! ;)

[253Guitar]

so mastering an 8 string wasnt enough, so you add your own drums to the song. you sir define the word awesome

[Milpup]

kinda sounds dream theatre y. might just be the bass

[Aliareth]

Awesome dude!

[SmashBass]

Great work! Don't stop rockin'.

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

Your secret, it's Stewie isn't it?

[peifarmer1]

one of the BEST tracks i've ever heard!!!! and i hear a lot man keep it up!!! i don't know how your not famous with quality like that!!

[stockholmare11]

Very Cool. You're pretty solid multi-intrumetalist. I like how a lot of the stuff you come up with is very melodic. You would have little trouble recording an album by yourself

[AhmedMalik5]

ONE MAN BAND!! *FULL STOP*

[mrdeath007]

amazing man...is there any chance of tabs???? i need some badass 8 string songs to learn on guitar :)

[JDXticy]

Great song! what editing software did you use? Im on a low budget; is it affordable?



[MrOzzzy6666]

No thats what in talking bout

[darmen88]

Very goood!!!

[PureIIPoiZoN]

Awesome work man.

[InstinctForRank]

great stuff man



[Nick4764]

amazing stuff, how do you come up with this stuff

[StupidHatMatt]

@Nick4764 I'm not quite sure, I guess it just comes out when it's ready

[Nick4764]

@StupidHatMatt alright man, thanks for taking the time to answer

[saurimotox]

Awesome

[Mattiasnederman]

This is really good! :)

[stygianapothegm1]

nice riffs, harmonies, and structure. you've definitely got your own sound going on.

[stygianapothegm1]

nice riffs, harmonies, and structure. you've definitely got your own sound going on.

[redxile666]

Do you have a cat? Sorry for the random question, it just seems like rock/metal guys on YouTube (and who have published their music) have cats. Joey Jordison, KillrBuckeye, Brian Dammotta, and quite a few more.

[StupidHatMatt]

@redxile666 Haha no, but I have two tiny dogs :)

[TheNeedled]

incredible... dude, you are one of my favourite guitar players ever... you really CAN do every kind of music with keeping it amazing.

[StupidHatMatt]

@TheNeedled Thanks man! I'm sincerely honored by that

[allsic]

awesome track.. what sotware did you use to make the 4 videos into one.?

[ChrisvonChamier]

great stuff bro!!!!

[th3kill3r0fdr3ams]

thumbs up if you wanna kill lois too!

[spookjudge]

hey matt you should totally make guitar tutorials on how to play the guitar....for those of us who don't know how to play the guitar and are now inspired by you to learn but are to poor to afford them....your guitar playing is a blessing from god so could you please make a guitar tutorial on how to play the guitar for us who are beginning?

thumbs up if you agree :D

[jw11432]

man i hear you on not wanting to mess with bands because you lose creative control, you just have to find the right guys. im very fortunate to be in a band with 4 other guys that have absolutely no ego and only want to play what sounds best, they serve the song, not their ego. shame a guy with your talent couldnt be as fortunate as i am. also, inspiring to see someone else learns/writes/plays as i do without training or music theory, just going with what sounds good. rock the fuck on bro :)

[MartyFriedmanRulez66]

:O you are my hero is there anyplace to download this, I will be searching this song on the internet sporadically till I get an answer lol :P

[Hearthebrontide]

I subscribed because that song was one of the most beautiful metal compositions I have ever heard. I would like to grow extra thumbs to give you more than just 2 thumbs up.

[99mag3r99]

You play bass, guitar, and drums, and you have no formal music training? Share talent pls.

[MrSamsjam1]

Whats the point of the pad thingy on the 1st fret?

[StadiumArcadium1234]

@MrSamsjam1 -_-...

[Bugera369]

hey man, i am watching several of your videos and i'm wondering if you'd be willing to let me mix your tracks for you? I mean, it sounds great, but I'd just love to be able to work with you and gain experience with a musician as great as you. nothing too serious, just to see what we could come up with. let me know, man. thanks.

[vgmaster777]

amazing :)

[Ewka0906xq]

This is very original. I like it! :)  You have a talent.

[Guitarfanman]

needs more cowbell...

no but seriously great job dude!

[MusicMan44144]

stewie rules!!!

[Ebugarinphi]

nice intro transition. dude you are a legit one man band.

[darkshyne69]

It just tops the cake its so amazing!

[darkshyne69]

You left me speechless with this one man. It gave me chills it was so good man! Keep it up! I would love to hear more like this along with all your other songs as well!

[q0w1e2r3t4y5]

whoahh that was ACE man

[Dyarkulus]

Cool! Checkout my original deathcore song in my channel ! :))

[imadey0utube]

\The only bad thing was the transition at 0:25 . everything else is good

[robostomo1]

that was excellent, and in fact inspired me a bit, thanks.

how do you approach song writing on the 8 string?

[StupidHatMatt]

@robostomo1 Well, since I don't know notes or chord structures I just fool around and play what sounds best. It's hard to describe but there's really no rhyme or reason to it.

[Zaneistheman1]

@StupidHatMatt you need tab out some of this for me :) im 15 and i love playing stuff like this

[WeDressToPartyMonty]

@StupidHatMatt i have to say, this is brilliant stuff considering that you don't know notes (neither do i) it's definently about playing what you feel. you just KNOW what sounds fit together...

this sure beats the one man bands of the past, haha. also nice bass. i could NEVER fit my hand around that...it's definently about playing what you feel. you just KNOW what sounds fit together...

[shaggycooper69]

@StupidHatMatt I'm the same way, although I'm not as close to as good as you. Your music is very uplifting and beautiful.

[alanca03]

man you can really play im digging your musical knowledge good clean EFFORTLESS technique and it sounds clean as shit. So what you just know Music theory or do you just practice a lot? Self taught or what? Any favorite scales? Any fav key to play in?

[StupidHatMatt]

@alanca03 Hey man thanks! I don't practice at all except to write a song, I don't know any real music theory, I am self taught and I don't have any favorite scales. I do, however, love the key of C# min. Thanks again!

[nivek7769]

whats that black thing hanging off your first fret?

[StreetxLights]

@nivek7769 Im not sure but I think thats just something, like a cloth, to prevent the other strings from resonating while hes playing. Its actually a smart idea to cut out excess noise

[DefPanther20]

@StreetxLights Thats exatly right. Er at least thats what he had said on his FB page.

[CrazyDuck1996]

r u rich??

[BombsonBicycles]

beautiful outro, killer melody

[jotadanny]

¡ POST METAL¡

[PreuschoffPerrier]

It´s very nice! Greets Inge

[doctoroftheuniverse]

Hey man, this is really cool!! I hope to do some 100% original content soon too but I need to work on my guitar playing before I can come up with something this cool!!!

[EricRayHendrix10]

hey nice playing! i was wondering if you could tell me how you show 2 videos at once on the screen, like you on the drums and the guitar. It would be really appreciated if you told me

[randomactsok]

@j4zzbox The guy from Dethklok does everything, he's doing pretty fine if you ask me lol.

[randomactsok]

@j4zzbox You've heard of Foo Fighters yeah?  That singer Dave Growl did all of his instruments in his first album. He was pretty amazing, had feeling. Playing in a band is more of a friend fun live type deal. But doing what this mate up here does takes so serious skill and love for music. Either way, you have a great time.

[randomactsok]

I was wondering why the neck was so fat then i read it was an 8 string. Are those a lot harder then standard 6 string guitars?

[MI6CORPORAL]

Hey Matthew, I was wondering if I could use your music to accompany my slide show that I'll be displaying for my whole school please. I just can't find anything that I like that fits

[Hallowedbethyname92]

Solo at 1:50ish made me blow
