Betcha Can't Play This with Psycroptic's Joe Haley

[TheDavemaison]

listening to him speak i get the feeling that he hates himself...

[razzo3456]

hey, everyone stop dissing the aussie accent. psycroptic is amazing, and this is easily better than the 10 second vids of a shred and no explanation of anything

[PsyThrash]

¿¡Wtf!?, ¿Does it exist?... ¡Nyan Cat Scale!.

[XQriousX]

2:57 That's what she said...

[racerx3065]

brett garsed ftw!

[ayybudayy]

cool lick

[amonanonymous]

'Hi this is Seth Rogen.I lurnd ta plais gitars!"

[deanguitars11]

I can play that, In my sleep



[brandonfishas]

I bet I can

[meddelhed]

Hectic Pattern shirt ;)

[cipher619]

Lol He seems so quiet and timid for a death metal player. It's pretty great xD

[BuddyMETAL1]

Pretty damn good guitar player. Thats what I say. If you dont agree with me? GFY, im american.

[BendyStrawhat]

Cuts on his left knuckles, prob from punchin shit.

[nothinghappens1]

This was filmed in a parallel universe where Guthrie Govan eats a lot in mc donald´s.

[nonzerobeast]

@nothinghappens1 Truth

[Th3RussBus]

Best band to come out of Aus!

[85Aheadstix]

@Th3RussBus After Acca!

[Ddeme1993]

i can pla this.....



[CanMetan]

It's actually sweet that he says "betcha can't play this" and shows how to do it > )

And I liked his red beard

[NathanIsNotCool]

psycoptic.

[GanjaBhang]

@NathanIsNotCool thats Psycroptic

[ArseLoad0fMetal666]

not gonna lie usually these Betcha Can't Play This things represeant individual guitarists far worse than their actual bands do eg. playing mindless shred when their in fact in very complex bands. In this case he plays a hybrid picking jazz lick when in his band all it is distorted riffs and breakdowns...

[SlavesOfNil]

@ArseLoad0fMetal666 HIs tone isn't that different in later Psycroptic, he uses a lot of hybrid picking with the band, and Psycroptic rarely have breakdowns. Yep.

[PropheciesForetold]

Where the hell can I find the tab for this? Anyone a clue?

[brandonattor]

@MrRajguitar I was expecting his head to explode.

[TrippyTro]

@MrRajguitar rofl i thought hes gonna bust out into a crazy shred....not a jazz lick

[pet3rgriffin]

With great beard comes great responsibility.

[WeveGotNoTimeToLose]

Emil from Daath does way crazier runs.

[iamhomo1]

No wonder we can't hear him. His beard is absorbing the sound :D

[iamhomo1]

One of the best "betcha can't play this".

[IndighostOfficial]

I like it better slower!

[republicanhaircutman]

I love Psycroptic, but "he doesn't play any solos in the band..."

WHY NOT?

[TheSinndogg]

@republicanhaircutman He plays one in "The Scepter of Jaar-Gilon", but apart from that, I think it's because the band usually aims to write songs that can be completely reproduced live.

[Lavizan1349]

makes me lough when the video starts

[bloodthirst72]

I like his playing. It's very fluid.

[scooterboy2911]

u mad not play any solos but all of the songs are solos

[jimmy87980]

I can defiantly play this.

[SiMMkillsAll]

this is one of the better betcha cant play this videos.

ever notice how most of these riffs end in a note thats not in the scale?

[maju36able]

@SiMMkillsAll go by sound not scales your music will be less boring that way

[MFHCFH]

At first I thought he was swedish, then I listened again and he's australian...good lord...

[Sperzel]

@MFHCFH hehe not many swedes go by the name "joe haley ;D

[JGL43]

ooohhh i played this once... then i woke up

[AntUK]

This is the most brutal one for me, because he's using the exact same guitar I use, and I sure as hell can't play this

[Duuuuuug]

Lol, brutal band n he uses a blues tone thats epic

[BeholdTheHeadOfGod]

Hi I'm Joe Haley from fucked up dick, and i betcha can't play this...

[QuantizeMusic]

@BeholdTheHeadOfGod LMFAO you heartless bastard hahahaha

[vayne92]

@BeholdTheHeadOfGod aahhhaahahahaahhahaahah fucked up dick

[GanjaBhang]

@BeholdTheHeadOfGod not a fan then?

[BeholdTheHeadOfGod]

@GanjaBhang i am. all in a joke :-)

[Discreetarcher3]

@BeholdTheHeadOfGod how on earth did you even manage to try and mix ''fucked up dick'' with psycroptic? it didnt sound anything like that

[Serpchit]

@Discreetarcher3 Because he's probably a 12 year-old kid. If not, he has the humour and mental capacity of one. And he's probably never heard an Australian accent before...

[TheGhettoFineLaxer]

I can't understand a word he's saying

[laiholapso]

@TheGhettoFineLaxer i promise you thats you to blaim dude

[MadJack122]

@LemoNxWedgE um what? TUNE TO DROP A YOU FOOL!

[MajesticMist]

WOW

[BritishTechMetal]

Hard to believe he is a death metal guitarist watching this. He seems soooo nice.

[SpMeKP]

@BritishTechMetal Some of us deathsters kinda have that...

[MajkeTiTvoje]

@BritishTechMetal death metal guys are always nice (except Glenn Benton). The thrashers are the bad mofos

[tsirosgoddammit]

@BritishTechMetal what's this idea that someone who plays intense music is expected to be a mean/violent person?

[DreamTheater4life]

@BritishTechMetal alot of the people in metal are the nicest people you will ever meet

[Pakanahymni]

@BritishTechMetal

Why do you assume death metal guitarists aren't nice?

[Jansson33]

kinda sounds like he is about to cry. but his an amazing guitarist for sure

[hahs22]

Nice. Most other guitarist just play really fast in "Betcha Can't Play This" but this is unique and technical.



[NekronSX]

Betcha Can't Play This, Guitar Shred or Guitar Lesson ?

[wntersun666]

ginja ninja's!!!

[XD00105]

He kinda looks like Ryan Dunn

[samathanwataguan]

HAI! ARHM JO HALEY.

CRIKEY! THERE'S A CROC ON THA ROAD!

[nargothrondofficial]

hes a very red man

[TheBeatlesCom]

Wish Steve vai would do one.

[Dimebag08RIP]

Hi, i'm Joe Haley from Psycroptic and i betcha didn't expect me to play this.

[mckevs11]

[guitarguy2691]

i'm joe haley, betcha didn't expect me to play this.

i sure as fuck did not

[IMPISSOFF]

Very good technique, sounds good and looks hard.

[JEUXolim]

I want this guitar.

[GameKid98]

@JEUXolim I think it's an ESP Horizon if you didn't know.. :)

[JEUXolim]

@GameKid98 I know, I want it lol.

[philc1974]

Really nice playing and some great ideas there but yeah...jesus!...work on your explanation of what your playing will ya??

...that said...great playing!

"...Its kinda like...sorta like ..! lol!

[RhythmDramatist]

like i know like, but like with both hand and yeah, u know like, playing, surta makes, u know like, runs, like im just sorta, u know like...

[SmokescreenAbyss]

On an another note, this bloke is amazing. Check out some of his solo's on their album Initiation. Good buy for any Tech Death fan's out there :D

[SmokescreenAbyss]

Haha, sucked in everyone, Psycroptic is an Australian band which means they tour regularly here so I can see them on every tour. Too bad Necrophagist isn't Australian...

[bruceleerules747]

This guy is such a great guitarist

[KshBlnts420]

Can anyone else see the raw power emanating from his beard?

[Aist3rG4teS]

Check out my cover!!! :)

[6672rock]

Good use of chromatic passing tones. Very jazz-like in that regard.

[galking371]

I bet John Petrucci can! xD

[ruinawish]

@galking371 Nerd.

[twitch101994]

Hi im Joe Haley and my awesome beard of Psychroptic and I Betcha Cant Play This

[TheBlackened117]

what he actually says, makes no sense.

[aperfecttool2590]

@TheBlackened117 How so?

[TheBlackened117]

@TheBlackened117 like, he speak sentences, but its just like beating around. he says what he does, but he doesnt ACTUALLY explain what he does. unless you already know how he plays. to someone who has no idea who he is, it doesnt make sense. "its the same technique i use in psychotropic, the same thing, same blah blah blah"

[AshtinALWT]

@TheBlackened117 "Psychotropic" hahaha.

It's the same he technique he uses while he's tripping.

[AmnellAndreas]

finally a great guitarist who doesn't try to play 10 million scales at warp factor 12!!! Azzum!

[LorenzoMacaggi]

Greaat sound!!

[TheOzzyT]

Nice!

Red guitar

[gino288100]

@TheDjentinator PSYCROPTIC listen again

[lamascosk8r]

Sweet shit he is pale!

[Chris741113]

Very introvert personality..But the playing is good, I like it. Pretty smooth and tasty.

[Blader999]

He seems like one big vagina, so does his guitar-tone ... You don't put a gun in a baby's hand. But he does have some skill.

[AfroAlex97]

We expect solos fro now on :D

[tomertt12]

liked the sound of the guitar!

[hobbitg3]

[famed0tswagg]

[ICreamsodAI]

@MetalManIbanez haha yeah minimal

[juvedoo99]

i didnt expect this but i loved it. refreshing to see a less distorted and more bluesy playing.

[Piotrshepard]

[Sufferd666]

@Piotrshepard I think the guy is large ;)

[Piotrshepard]

"You know, it said, Sodomites"

[hatekillripstab671]

psycroptic are a death metal band, and not a good one. it has crap uninteresting riffs that are very untechnical, hoe coe their guitarist is wasting his talent with them. This is the best betcha cant play i have seen and i hope he gets his obvious confidence issues thrown out the door and start his own thing with his talent

[thismika18]

great lick! strange how he's from Australia, plays ESP guitars, and plays just like Brett Garsed....Is this Garsed's bearded son?

[othx]

0:01

[SlitYourGuts09]

REPRESENTING AUSTRALIA!

[UNiQUETUNE]

[Q8BrutalRocker]

WE EXPECT EPIC SOLOS IN THE NEW ALBUM!

[MyBandNameWasTaken]

.... Socially awkward XD

[alexdarkjedi]

CHRIS HASLAM

[bobilly]

One of the coolest BCPT I have ever seen. The tone, the playing, did not expect this!

[devilman666]

My guitar went out the window and I officially quit playing. Are you happy Joe?You won the bet!!!

[joelrod18]

i bet i cant grow an epic beard like tht

[kezanator]

He went to my highschool

[miker12892]

i am in love with the tone

[HarryTheRockerManiac]

Good playing but the tone is weird

[otherrandomhero]

@HarryTheRockerManiac His tone is always pretty different. Uses a pretty minimal amount of gain with a real tight noise gate, it might be cutting him off a bit here when hes playing lightly like that

[ProgressiveGuitarist]

Great to see an Aussie guitarist make it, I hope I can also reach his level or more of recognision.

[OldCryptopsy]

lol i can play this

[largemoose]

Was not expecting a fusion solo from this.

[JgHaverty]

he's an australian boom-hower... god damnit I cant fucking hear him lol

AWESOME lick! Was totally not expecting that lol

[McJerkins]

lol these videos always have the best fucking comments.

[JamesCFraser]

You are very correct. I cannot play that. Damned hybrid picking...
