  • "We'll usually start with a riff......not ARIF who's the bassist." Nice play on words.

  • You should be able to hear music in your head- then use your instrument of choice to convey it. Theory is just a tool- nothing more. Just my opinion.

  • @leetsmithownsu cool beans

  • @redhavok666 i dont hear that at all... i mean, i just dont understand what youre saying

  • I KNOW MORE ABOUT MUSIC THAN EVERYONE BLAH BLAH BLAH...shut up we dont care.

  • 1:45 good call on that one guys!

  • i write alot of music and have known basic music theory from a young age scales modes building chords and progressions and i find myself trying to avoid everything i know as much as i spend using it. my shits all in odd time signitures and wierd chords but some of that theory shit its just everywhere. to know or not to know the artists great dilmena

  • @BaileyLush thats the perfect way to put it man. cheers.

  • @retards52 ahah winner

  • @BaileyLush I do understand that Theory is not required. And yes, even if you do not know theory, you would still be using it when you do anything musically. And honestly I do agree that a particular musician may not be "better" if they knew theory, I was just saying that it helps. If Luke said to Tim, I want you to harmonize this thing I'm doing, they could sit there and figure it out, but if they could speak theory, they would know how to harmonize a 3 octave Dmaj7flat5 sweep without guessing.

  • Ma non si riesce a capire un cazzo!

  • the theory argument going on is a little silly... Some people find it useful, and others don't need it. But i don't think it harms anyone. I hear a lot of people say that theory takes away the creativity in music... But that's what i hear from people that have no idea what a music theory class really is. Personally, i think it sped up my learning a lot.

  • @crunkSVEN69 Well what about the musician not versed in theory? He/she is still expressing there musical ideas without having knowledge of the theory they employ (obviously they will still be using the mathematical concepts inherent in theory, but I truly don't think a deep understanding of theory is imperative). I hear arguments all the time about how many famous musicians don't have knowledge of theory, and how much better they would be if they did. I just don't agree with this.

  • @BaileyLush Theory is like the language you use to convey the ideas you have and to communicate with other musicians.

  • @ShroomSamich ill link you the inteview where they said alot of their songs they stole the format from sikth in a pm.

  • @thricegod1288

    your the troll how the hell did they rip off there songs just cause they like them doesn't mean they ripped there songs asshole

  • @ShroomSamich i think you meant "You're a retard". the your you are looking for is the contraction of you and are hence combining the two. You+are = you're, not your

    also they said they are huge fans of sikth. fuck off troll.

  • @thricegod1288

    your a retard

  • they are sweet, but they have openly stated that they jacked alot of the songs on fortress from the band sikth.

  • lot of songs start with a riff, not arif LOOOOOL!!!
