  • @iamakornfan disseminated intravascular coagulation is the name of the song

  • tech death metal? wtf xD

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome!!!!!

    

  • Do you use drop A or G when your playing?

  • @inxaos It said C standard..

  • i hate when people say that music like this isnt "MUSIC" its called tech death for a reason and i think all of viraemia's songs are masterpieces they deserve way more credit than what they have they are definitely one of the most talented bands out there not to mention they've pretty much started a whole new genre of metal i can listen to viraemia all day long they are gods at what they do i mean come on how can u watch this and not b amazed

  • NO DOUBT THERE GOOD DUDE, BUT YOU NEED RHYTHYM PARTS IN A SONG MAN U JUST SWEEP THE WHOLE TIME,FOR ME ITS TO MUCH

  • DID THEY START TECH DEATH?

  • @kylepardueish they didnt start tech death but there style is a genre of its own

  • @kylepardueish Lol nawww man Tech Death was started by Atheist around 1989

  • @kylepardueish lol they arent uncontrolled sweeps as you can hear he repeats every sweep. that man is a real fucking shredder those breakdowns are prolly him taking brakes

  • @ws6ta01 yea but there are also different tech deaths... you just can't compare Necrophagist with this band... Whilst Necrophagist is beautiful this just sounds like nothing to me

  • Pretty sick dude. Sounds like you could use thicker strings (at least the 6th). I can hear 'em clunking in the background.

  • este kabron es de otro mundo, toca bien chingon

  • It seems like some people should train their ears away from the western standard music. Try listening to something such as this, or maybe, music containing semitones or eastern scales and modes.

  • Ow!!! My ears hurt. SO. GOOD!!!!

    Mom-wtf is that crap!!

    Me- myself in 5-10 years

    Mom- god help you

    Me- oh, I don't need god. Wait...wut?

  • I , my best man, Fap to this song.

  • AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! THAT GUY DESERVES TO MUCH MORE FAMOUS!!!

  • FUCK YEAH VIRAEMIA!!!! I SERIOUSLY MISS METAL DEVASTATION AND THEIR KICKASS SHOWS HEAD BANGING UNTIL MY NECK BREAKS, I USED TO LIVE RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM IT ON BELL, GOODTIMES, ROCK ON MANE!!! :)

  • Why is the cross the wrong side up ;) hahaha, great playing, please release more songs

  • holy shit dude you're awesome, keep getting better and make videos! PLEASE!

  • A Day to Remember uses this tuning....

  • I wish I could play techy stuff. I'm relatively new to guitar, and basically self taught everything I do know. Guess I just gotta keep practicing haha.

  • Don't listen to all the haters on here bro. Haters gonna hate. Viraemia is awesome. I totally dig the dissonant sounds and complex musical structures your band brings to the table. Fucking brutal. Keep on shredding my dude

  • i don´t understand this music!!!! wherever i vote I like it !

  • Minor note: I love seeing the guy reply to the stupid troll posts and shut them all up. Nice playing, can't wait to hear new material, and hopefully see you guys live!

  • @AudienceKiller66 well there is definitely death metal with feeling, just the idea that technicality = skill level and playing the most non-followable piece makes you good has lead to the loss of song flow the effect the music has on the ear. I play death metal and make it a priority to put technicality behind the sound of the finished product. You can check out my band and tell me what you think, search Resurrecting Judas

  • I know you have made it into a song already but I think if you were to ever re-write it the beginning section is really great but the alteration of the riff should be spaced out from the other riff. Otherwise I admire the technique you used.

  • where can i buy a viraemia shirt i live in sweden plz answer i want a shirt so bad viraemia is my favourit death metal band!!

  • where can i buy i viraemia shirt i live in sweden plz answer i want a shirt so bad!!

  • is incredibly annoying that people do not stop to think of creativity to do something different with different sounds and dissonant harmonies, the music can touch only one way?, as if all music is equal, that would suck, and I wouldn't feel so proud to be a metalhead

  • CARALHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOO

  • Cooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooool.

  • Good skills man... I bought your EP a while back off iTunes, off the back of seeing your good self and your bassist (with that bass of 10 million strings of his) on YouTube. Great tunes, monstrous technique and very inspiring. Keep on rocking, brother.

  • holy fuck! you're good.

  • Mom: What are you doing?!

    Son: Making one of the most brutal songs in the world!

  • well youre an amazing, mindblowing player and i respect that, but dude, let the guitar breathe! youre just goin from arpeggio to arpeggio and tapping everything in sight!

  • bring on the new EP cant fucking wait much longer.. need my fix of the most brutal shit out asap.. great work dude

  • idk maybe im wrong but is all ur doing is chromatic progression with a few minor tri tones here and there?

  • Wonder how fast your guitar goes out of tune at shows...

  • viraemia is the best death metal band ever josh your my favourite guitar player what kind of effects do you use plz answer

  • I listened to their EP and I can see how people at first glance assume that there is no organization or logic to their playing but they're just missing out on some exceptional guitar work.

  • Sick stuff man, i have the EP its great looking forward to the album.

  • you make me want to kill myself...in a good way

  • woahhhh,,, thats the most annoying thing ive ever heard

  • grindcore

  • Hey man, great, all the song is good but that part at the minute 01:10 is a shit, i dont like it.

  • It's way more fun to try and play the most complicated stuff you can than sound like every other average dildo playing guitar out there. I just get way too bored playing most shit so stuff like this just amazes me! Not saying I can play anything close to this.... way to insane for me to try yet hahahaha. Insanely intense autopsy performed on your guitar man! Keep it up!

  • Absolutely amazing. I have been slowly working on learning this, and I havent even cracked the surface. If you guys could get more tabs out, dear goodness the awesomeness that would happen.

  • dont let the hate get to you, youre fucking talented and your band is AWESOME, keep this awesomeness goin guys!

  • @TheJacobGordon1 I doubt that.

  • @vamplycan69 The point is to be annoying, that is why it is written with all of the most dissonant arpeggios, chords, and harmonies. 

  • @vamplycan69 your vision of wise would make no difference except it would be considered politically correct by your standards. What good would that do for me, I would gain you as a fan but, loose respect from people who actually enjoy this style of music. I would also loose respect for myself because I would be playing the same crap everyone else has already done; consequently, making music boring to me.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ Owned. :)

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ I see where you're coming from. It's obviously your style of music, I'm not saying stop playing this genre of music in general. I think you should also go into stuff that's a little more organized, and or more well put together. I'm already a fan, not because you play Technical Death Metal, but because you are a skilled guitarist. I unlike most of your fans like you because you have skill not because you play this type of music.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ you are cool man, and i understand your music, and i enjoy it.. this is a form of art, but not for anybody else.. is like when they saw a completely lunatic paint, and they saw art.. not everybody liked it, and maybe they don't get why the author of that paint did it, but the people from inside the painting (and in this case inside the music, because i consider myself a musician) understand that paint and i thinks it is as valid as anything else

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ now, you make music to annoy the noobs or to experiment with this disonant sounds?

  • @sicoticosandro I make music because I want to.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ mm.. obviously, but why this kind of music i was asking about.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ And that's all the reason anyone needs.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ BEST REPLY EVER! Greetings from Argentina!

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ well my friend, i get sicoticosandro's point, i know that was really technical and everything, but that was so fuckin annoying, and not annoygin in the good way ( like buckethead ) no no no annoying in the bad way, u see there's a difference between riffs like the faceless plays and riffs Brandrill plays ...... listen to both u will understand my point

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ well my friend, i get sicoticosandro's point, i know that was really technical and everything, but that was so fuckin annoying, and not annoygin in the good way ( like buckethead ) no no no annoying in the bad way, u see there's a difference between riffs like the faceless plays and riffs Brandrill plays ...... listen to both u will understand my point, and btw im not bashing on u, ur a great player but u need to find the balance

  • @sicoticosandro you say this doesnt take skill go make a video of you playing this kind of style and see how well it comes out for ya ;)

  • @ohExcisions i didint say that asshole.. learn to read.

  • @sicoticosandro you implied it

  • @ohExcisions no.. i didn't implied.. i'm not kidding you, i know this guy plays great.. don't put words in my mouth i didint say.. i just asked him if he plays this kind of music as an artistical chaqllenge to the4 mainstream or what.. and he replied me unsatisfactory with a "i wanna play music" .. not a great answer.. is like asking to an artist that draw a simple line on a canvas why he did that (even if its art) and then he tells you "because i wanna paint" sorry.. that's not believable.

  • @sicoticosandro Do you personally write music? artists are not always reasonable people. i do not make music to make money or to be popular. i write it because i want to write music. i put my heart and soul into what i write and would never care if someone deemed it "unlistenable". thats exactly what is going on with this man

  • @atari3200t i write music, and i know this music is not good..so i consider this kind of music like a challenge to the ears... they wanna annoy... they write this songs to annoy people, and i think it's reasonable. but don't tell me they write this kind of music because they think it's good or they "feel" it... the only thing they felt was the urge to annoy people.. to make weird music.... or something like that.

  • @sicoticosandro no real artist writes music they dont think is good. sometimes i would much rather hear some diminished arpeggios and atonal tapping runs than any consonant sounding runs. this is what they feel is their calling. they go against the norm and they do it in a way that challenges people to open their minds to new musical ideas. but really i dont need to defend this man. he is making a name for himself and this band by playing his unique style

  • @atari3200t that's what i said... they want to challenge people's minds (ears) they do it with that purpose and i respect it.. i'm not saying anything bad about them.. i say they make this music with a purpose and not to delight people, or to sound beautiful, harmonic, powerful.. or whatever they wanted to sound... they just make music weird to challenge peopel's mind.. and i respect it as an artistical form.

  • @sicoticosandro You got owned so hard

  • @suckemgood mm.. i don't think so... anyway... follow at least the whole conversation, and i got a plus too, because i'm not a native english speaker, so is kind of hard to me express some ideas in english correctly

  • @sicoticosandro shit man, how does it feel to get owned that hard? I'm seriously curious, like...damn; so how did you survive the owning?

  • @TruthTheSpeaker mm.. i don't think he owned me, if you follow the complete conversation you will note it. and as i say to a similar imbecile like you, i'm not an english speaker so is hard to me express in this language properly.

  • @vamplycan69 Either way, he still makes more money than you.

  • @ProphetOfShred That has nothing to do with this conversation, so yea you're fucking stupid.

  • Why do people still rag on this video. Music is expression. Gtfo if you dont like the music or for some reason your pompus enough to tell someone else how they should play.

  • @vamplycan69 i completely agree with you dude.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ honestly, you all have talent but as song writers and over all as musicians you guys arent very good. you guys cant just slop a bunch of arpeggios and power chords together and call it a song haha. you guys are the justin beibers of technical death metal.you make the rest of us in technical death metal bands look bad. produce something new with at least a little bit of originality. not sweeps and powerchords hahaha.btw powerchords arent dissonant at all. theyre just powerchords.

  • @SweepCreep "the rest of us technical death metal bands look bad." Seriously you all sound the same, it really isn't possible to make the rest of you look good or bad. Technical death metal is the musical equivilent of tossing cookie monster into a wood chipper. If any originality were added to the technical death metal genre, it would no longer be in that genre and would only be a positive step forward to making something that sounds remotely like music.

  • @tbirdpunk obviously you just dont understand the emotion and the talent it takes to create technical death metal music. so just stfu and gtfo.

  • @tbirdpunk: You're an ignorant ass. If you don't like it, then tits or gtfo.

  • @tbirdpunk Give me ONE rap/pop artist that sounds unique.

  • this is the music of the future either embrace it or don't. You then become part of the past. Beethoven was once asked about one of his piano sonatas and why did write it the way the he did, he replied: "this music isn't meant for you, it''s meant for the audience of the future." What many don't realize is that for any changes in art to take place notions of the preconceived have to give way to a new level of acceptance.

  • @sugarp211919pie

    Well said!

  • @Robertdworth thanks. 

  • @vamplycan69 whats annoying is talentless fucks whos greatest achievement is popping a zit on their face giving their two cents on great music.

  • @vamplycan69 slow power chords must be more of your stlye. you should shove your head right back up metallicas ass

  • @dopefiend138 Uhhh well no actually, im into progressive metal. Metallica could suck a nut for all I care. The fact that youre trying to say shit just makes you look pathetic and idiotic. I can give a fuck what you think of me.

  • @vamplycan69 really thats why you took time out your life to comment me back. you need to quit bitchin about this guys skills and open your taste to music dipshit

  • @vamplycan69 GTFO CHRISTIAN FAG

  • @vamplycan69 dude, that music is called "Death Metal" for a reason..... its not supposed to sound "good" ;)

    besides the fact that "good sounding music" is a matter of opinion.

  • @vamplycan69 nice wrong opinion

  • I think the Lucifer would wish to play on your guitar to steam of riffs!!!

  • tuning? also your a motherfucking beast

  • @MetalTillIDie461 c standard

  • Hi, I'm Josh Hernandez and I betcha can't play this. (You're right, we can't.) When can we expect a full length from y'all/another EP? Been listening to y'all for over a year now and my Viraemia cravings only grow stronger. ^_^

  • You're awesome dude! ESP is a very good company. Do you have any opinion on the Eclipse II? I'm looking to get one.

  • i bet you could play 2 judas priest songs at the same time

  • fuck haters...Fuck them....envious

  • the cross should be upside down for us :D

  • by c standard you mean drop c? or C F Bb Eb G C tuning? btw AMAZIN playin, not really diggin too much your music, it reminds me of brain drill, you know, sweep tap sweep tap tap sweep sweep sweep tap....

  • @HiImJerry8 C standard = C F Bb Eb G C

    Its a great, heavy, yet balanced standard tuning, IMO.

  • WTF

  • fuck thats crazzy lol

  • an incredible technical "feat", absolutely devoid of musical value.

  • this is very very boring and unoriginal. it just sounds stupid and like all you do is sweep, yawn.

  • @SweepCreep Your whole life is Boring and unoriginal. We use arpeggios in ways that no one else I have heard has. I will show major differences if you show me any example that was written before this. Have you done anything that you are willing to submit to the endless scrutiny of random lazy worthless trolls for the enjoyment of connecting with the few that can see?

  • @scottaplummer im sorry man its just not my style. i didnt mean to piss you off or anything. ya cant post a video of you play something without expecting criticism. and in fact i am in a band and i think we have alot of potential. i play guitar alot everyday, so dont be so quick to judge me man. just giving you a lil criticism is all. jesus tap dancing christ lol.

  • I swear all these death metal-heads read the dictionary every night to find the largest words that sound brutal to put as a song name. And these riffs don't really show that much spirit in them. It's kind of typical death metal. ..I can already see their lead singer having long hair and a beard just making low voices which aren't even screams half the time.

  • @AudienceKiller66 i agree.. i was bored extremely quick. i respect the lead riffs but the rest were mediocre at best, just very emotionless and cut and dry. probably cool with drums, but that shouldnt make the song

  • @7thAllah Yeah, I think they see the guitar as just an object instead of something to really channel your spirit with. I only see deathmetal as something that people think is cool, and not something you can really connect with. But I do enjoy the sounds sometimes, I enjoy everything.

  • Comment removed

  • @AudienceKiller66 Do you not realize that others express their "spirit" differently than you? Do you think that "spirit is only expressed by bends, a wahwah pedal, and power chords? I know for a fact that Josh puts himself or his essence or "spirit" into his work. He put more into any one of his riffs than you have probably put into your whole life. It's fine if you don't like it, but your ignorance makes the music community as a whole worse. Tony is none of the things you assumed.

  • @scottaplummer I understand. If this is how he expresses himself fine I don't really care, but what kind of spirit can you really put into this? it's nothing more than sweeps and taps, there is skill but no real emotion. there is nothing from what I can understand is expressed here. I find it insulting you call me ignorant because of my opinions, I'm open to everything. I even said I enjoy this type of music from time to time. Its just your inability to except others opinions and ideals.

  • So did one day you wake up and go, "Ya know, I want to make my guitar my bitch today." And this was the result?

  • @xxSlaidxx if it is, hes a fuckin pimp. a masterpimp XD

  • Dude That's fucking brutal. But I can't for the life of me figure out what the vocalist is saying and I do listen to lots of death metal. The instrumentation is epic tho.

  • sounds like shit. stop torturing the cat!

  • My buddy Gabe's band The Kennedy Veil is playing with you guys at the festival in New Mexico

  • no puedo hablar ingles asi que bueno, tu musica es asombrosa, me encanta la velocidad que tiene la musia de tu banda, la gente que dice que es mierda es porque no encuentra un orden en tu musica, hay que saber escuchar para disfrutar tu musica.

    me compre el EP =D

  • Comment removed

  • question...how long have you been playing to do such amazing sick shit :D?

  • @DeSpIsEdIcON100 a total of 10 years in September.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ 1 year in august for me believe it or not.

  • I bought the EP, it's brilliant.

  • OH MY GOD! YOUR THE FUCKING SAVIOUR OF GUITAR! I AM YOUR HUMBLE SERVENT! WTF! I AM FOREVER YOUR SLAVE! THAT WAS SOME OF THAT ABSOLUTELY CRAZY SHIT! I AM NEVER EVER GOING TO BE THAT GOOD! I MEAN YA GET ON YOUTUBE THINKING YOUR PRETTY GOOD. THEN YA SEE THIS GUY AND WISH TO KILL YOURSELF! KEEP PLAYIN MAN!

  • sick!!! im lovin the decals. or are they even decals? this reminds me of psyopus

  • Do you like the Peavey xxx?

  • @BeanersCanLikIt Yeah I like it. It's actually a really good amp. A lot of ppl seem to say negative things about it but I don't see why.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ would it be good for cannibal corpse, behemoth, death metal type stuff?

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ did you mod the amp in any way? I have a XXX, can you tell me which channel you primarily use and settings? I'm just curious. 

  • @opethcire316 No I have not done any mods to it. I use the crunch channel. There is no need for the ultra. Bass 5, Mid 4, Treb 6-7, Gain 6

  • Love the guitar and the stickers..

    Brutal.

  • That little tapping bit at 1:20 is sick

  • Pointless debates are religion are pointless. Anyways, I have always wondered if certain bands ever talk to each other. For example, I have always imagined Viraemia is connected to Brain Drill or Slaughterbox in some way or another...

  • @gamefreak113456 We talk to each other every now and again, although we havent really talked to Braindrill in more than a year.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ

    Would it be too personal if I asked what you talk about? Like, do you compliment each other and discuss your music or is it like small talk?

  • @gamefreak113456 Mainly just things we have learned along the way, help with landing shows, things like that. Just try to help each other out in any way we can.

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ

    Thanks for the info. Nice sweeps by the way.

  • i have the guitar pro tabs on this

    ssssoooooooo hard to play!!!!!!!

  • this was very impressive it was very clean good job but i didnt like the flow of it but playing wise very niice

  • awsome guitar awsome playing. im actually jealous i cant make my five string bass look like that.

  • since when was pointlessty doing sweep tap arpeggios as fast and complex as you can called music?

  • @theplanetaryduality Good question!

  • @theplanetaryduality They aren't pointless. They're just too complex for you.

  • fail

  • Damn brother you're super death metal... Referring to your guitar. Hahah.

  • i think the stickers make it look badass..

  • Its funny how all these kids are in denial, because someone is better then them.

    Religion=Lies! \m/

  • @Trevagwar I'm gonna say that what your saying is wrong. Bashing on different beliefs because you think they're "wrong"? Now that's immature. Not everyone that is good at metal is Athiest or Satanist. I bet you there are some Technical Death Metal players that enjoy and play this. Your comment is very ignorant. Enjoy the music, just don't bash. OBEY! \m/

  • the song titles say it all really; overly complex for the sake of being complex. I'm not knocking it for being technical (thats half the point), but theres no feel to this, just a horrible mish-mash of notes.

  • im not gonna say ur a bad guitarist because ur pretty great but the pentagrams all over the guitar make it terrible

  • @nitcholous8611 Be free, religion = lies

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ

    Going obviously out of your way to bash something that you do not even believe to exist != free

  • @dompenn2010 likewise

  • @dompenn2010

    Not believing= free. Bashing perverted belief systems who have raped humanity of all intellect = METAL!

  • @VIRAEMIAPHXAZ you play that kind of music beacause you think religions are lies?
