Animals As Leaders - CAFO tapping lick

[Jamsessionroom1337]

he's not an elf, he's a evil wizard.

[Ominous09]

Haha... whats with the elf comments. and big head comments. great playing bro. and you don't seem uhmm abnormal to me.. just saying..

[kirkpetrucci]

@Ominous09 People have told me that I look kinda like elves from Lord of The Rings quite a bit over the years haha. The big head thing.....I can see that, but its just because of the camera angle!

[Bleed2510]

Elf covering Animals as Leaders FTW!

[guitarwhelp]

@Bleed2510 LMFAO oh my god

[Valentinesfalltopain]

have the same shirt log \m/

[LunarLionheart]

You look so like Acle.

[Guitarmazdur]

can i please have a tab?

:)

[shanedmay]

best lick in all of music...so sick

[MikelMetalYoung]

Omg... Travis, you allways was my inspiration in playing guitar, but now you are just my god :/

[GhHolocaust]

can you do us all a favour and tab it? because ur awsome like that :D

[thecrashinghighways]

is that a 7 string or 8?

[taxi911]

@thecrashinghighways

7.

[1IAmEverything1]

What tuning is it for the 7 string?

[IcarusCinematics]

@1IAmEverything1

i know a response a month later isnt very helpful. but for CAFO, Tosin Abasi tunes his 7 string "B D A D G B E"

[Dumbjackass]

Looks so effortless o.O

[TSchellhous]

Wow. Very nice job, I'm going to go through my guitars away now

[XxNoName69xX]

niiiccceee

[cerebrallockdown]

did you find a tab for this or did you figure it out by ear? i would love to find a tab for any of the bands songs

[Rolacko]

no feeling .. :(

[paxonkid]

dude work that shit, that was beautiful.

[MrLA7X]

thats well good dude :D

[xVERANTx]

master mind

[ZOMBIELANDakaUSA]

Excellent work...finally i can see both hands clearly, new favorite.

[Chr0maticAttack]

What do you use to make the guitar sound perfect? Do you plug the guitar directly into a computer or do you use a direct box to a recorder of some sort. I've played for a few years but haven't recorded anything.

[DETHMETALZ4LIFES]

i can do this......i just dont want to get blood all over my frets.

[xFpsPwnagex]

Get the RG2228! :D

[Legatomusic]

Love the tone is are you using x3 live and if so what are your settings?

[GuitarBoyEvan]

a bit off i think but vary nice!

[Eafterzero]

dude!! You need to cover Charlie Sheen-core!! goto to our page it's the first video!!!

[G27dude]

Awesome job! But I don't quite understand. When you are doing a tapping run such as this - Do you pick the first note on every string you go to, or is it all hammer ons/pull offs?

[espibanez1]

@G27dude he's not picking anything. just pure tapping

[gehythren]

kudos man-prodigy. that was cool!

[Maugister]

Excellent work!

[metalheadblues]

the evolution of finger tapping

[Tolley002]

Damn! Killing it man!

[RITUALTORTURE666]

i like that tuning better than the first:)

[jewsh666]

Wowzers man!!!

[vikingdestroyer113]

hey, can you tab this out puhlease

[bronzehydra3]

Not quite as good as Tosin's but really good!

[JacobSijsma]

Amen to you!

[kilyatwice]

OMG. How'd you ever figure this out??

[MorganRNReid]

@kilyatwice there a vid of tosin explaining the decending portion although considering the level of this guitarist i doubt he needed to watch it..

[DanielrATX]

that was legit haha



[pantera0410]

that's tight man... not perfect but i'm sure you knew that.... very very very good though!

[Mugenloo]

Haha I can't stop watching this.

Also you look like the "first" Kryten from Red Dwarf when your head is down :P

[Mugenloo]

FUCK

[appolyon1313]

niiice.



[SabuPtolemy]

Stop being ridiculous!

[Ty2052]

sounds sick in this tunning

[tropologya]

You re the man Dude!

Keep going that s great

[tropologya]

You re the man Dude!

Keep going that s great

[abcbamz17]

tight

[TheTonyMastodon]

brutal... but its hard to watch this video since your head is way bigger than your body!

[kirkpetrucci]

@TheTonyMastodon haha I guess the angle does make it kinda look like that.

[blackrad101]

@kirkpetrucci your head doesnt seem big and your damn good at guitar

[CheIseaSmiIe]

@TheTonyMastodon If you were any sort of musician you wouldn't be focusing on that at all.

[Cyphorian]

@TheTonyMastodon

Sigh..

What an utterly pointless comment..

Anyway, awesome skills dude :)

[keithred92]

@TheTonyMastodon The fuck does that have to do with the guitar playing?..

[stevai6732]

@TheTonyMastodon Ugh, shut the fuck up.

[CaptainCraniumMusic]

@TheTonyMastodon Do you got something against big-heads???

[Deathz0r94]

Wassup Travis, sweet video.

[lilnetty2]

askking for tab for this seems hilarious.

Please write some MUSIC ..... that was pretty amazing.

[Pluss18]

He's not playing guitar.

He's playing a ChapmanStick

[supershiva11]

fuck me sideways with a rusty fork until blood leaks from my rectum that was good

[bakkersyx]

7 or 8 strings??

[EllipticalExistence]

are you using a capo?

[AlkaliProject]

Nevermind man I actually just found it. Great Job though man. =]

[AlkaliProject]

Dude do have this tabbed out? If so could you send it to me? Haha.

[lukyganesh]

lol, i love the one fucking person who gave this a thumbs down.

[LanceSaunders]

@lukyganesh We call these types, 'haters'. haha

[Slashe50]

I'd say you got it.

[JeanDenisCote]

Why is the pitch changed in some of your videos?

[kirkpetrucci]

@JeanDenisCote This guitar has a floyd rose, and I don't feel like changing tunings.

[stevo946]

@kirkpetrucci oh the downfalls of the floyd rose... :(

[Toadoe7]

@kirkpetrucci How do you change the pitch? I mean program wise.

[koen37]

@Toadoe7 he uses Logic 8 haha, but almost all DAW's can do it. you just use some sort of pitch shifting plugin.

[isk8withemerica]

@kirkpetrucci AMEN TO THAT

[ConcretePie]

@kirkpetrucci lol word

[apalmalarrain]

@kirkpetrucci Damn, this is two years old, but... You could have changed the pitch of the complete video back to the original xD

[whatokyea96]

Is that a lamb of god shirt? looks awesome

[bobbithbrown]

@whatokyea96 lol

[MrRichardNoggin]

nice work

[astraltrancer303]

Amazing, but if you want to do it just like the guy from AAL your guitar needs like 10 more strings

[killath303]

@astraltrancer303 lmao :p

dunno why you got thumbs down, it was clear to me you where being sarcastic :D

[AdrenalineTheory]

@astraltrancer303 Except the fact that Tosin uses a 7 string for the song.....

[BillyWEL]

Very nice man, great technique man!

[Adrianpettit]

Clean and top notch. Fucking excellent job! 5 stars for you!

[BassPlayer121692]

[TheRealCadaver]

Good job.

[DeadPandaTits]

[Cjrizzle]

[MrBaller95]

[aaronkswafford]

Beastly bro.

[paynesworld12]

holy fuck are u shiting me

[PotatoDonki]

So...beast....

[ThatBrownFella]

amazing! i don't think im ever going to get the descending part down

[glassmoon0fo]

btw, great post *thumbs up

[reverendd]

That is the craziest sounding diminished lick I've ever heard in my life! It almost sounds chromatically diminished or something!

[glassmoon0fo]

that makes no sense whatsoever lol

[reverendd]

Sure it does. You've never heard of a chromatic diminished scale? Study your music theory. Any scale can be chromatic!

[glassmoon0fo]

im a music teacher. a scale cannot be diminished AND chromatic. there can be chromatic passing tones in a diminished scale, but this isnt that either, simply the natural minor and then phrygian. i thought you were joking and was throwing in a lol 0_o

[reverendd]

Ay caramba! Who cares?! All I have to say is that this guy from Threat Signal is a wicked guitar player!

[glassmoon0fo]

no doubt. i used to listen to threat signal a few years back, didnt know this was him.

[realhewdshug]

By definition a chromatic scale is every note. There are no wrongs notes in the "Chromatic Scale"

[stumply]

@realhewdshug yeah okay but what he meant was that its not chromatic, to be chromatic it means that it has to have consecutive stepwise notes in the chromatic scale.

[realhewdshug]

Yeah I know. But I was going by the "definition"

[endoftheline9]

it's not diminished. and it's not chromatic either.

[MrMetalbarD]

u look like a hellish satan bro :D

great playing and amazing tap ;)

[Angryskeleton]

Do you know any kind of Satan that's not hellish?

[NiteSlayer777]

5/5 stars dude!

nice taps!

[YogSothothOfGuitars]

IS that a 7 string? or a 8 string?

The fretboard looks so big

Lol you are great!

[xGuitaRxxHer0x]

Can you not count?

[YogSothothOfGuitars]

No.

[Kubatykasymposium]

Good job man!

[jender1122]

man, i love how you pick up my favorite stuff and play it perfectly!

[HarvesterofSorrow94]

nice lamb of god t-shirt! and sweet tapping as well.

[deviloogy]

Nice

[Utorak007]

Awesome!

[AJGNW]

Killer as always. Nice to see and hear

[sparks7sparks]

Killer !!

[sssShawnnnn]

Amazing tapping Travis. :O

[TheTermsofservice]

Wow dude, amazing, It'd be sweet to jam with you dude.

[vugolol]

Damn man, i'm glad i'm subscribed, awesome! O_O
