  • 2 :30 ish - he mentioned MESHUGGAH are years ahead of their time ~ thumbs up if you agree !

  • Misha doesn't need to prove anything, he's not a teacher, he's a producer and a guitar player. His success speaks for itself. I've seen Periphery twice and they continue to improve. Take your bullshit tight ass complaints somewhere else.

  • guitar?

  • @QuantizeMusic LISTEN TO THIS GUY!

  • 3:48 what's the fourth note?

  • @carlresmondo

    It was not that he couldn't play the power-chords, it was that he couldn't play the unusual rhythm that James had made up.

    It was also not as simple as it turned out to be on the album you know, not as straightforward.

    The problem Kirk had was with the rhythm and the timing of the notes.

    I can totally understand what went wrong there, and it's probably (or clearly) not Kirk's style at all.

    They never played a riff like that before. Not like Kirk couldn't do it...

  • @DamageIncM You're right about tuning not matter, but with this subgenre of metal, the string gauge and tuning play heavily into the tone that is created and is the foundation of "Djent". Therefore, in this specific subgenre, tuning does matter. Also, it would be different if Kirk was attempting to play something really techincal, but it was just power chords played on the third and fifth fret. I was playing stuff like that when I was 13 effortlessly. It was dumb. Its whatever.

  • @carlresmondo

    Ahm, so what if he plays in E?... Tuning doesn't matter.

    Do you think these "djent"-guys are NOT inspired by guitarists like James Hetfield? Think again.

    I was just kidding because of James' heavy picking style by the way, don't take things so seriously.

    And that moment with Kirk, you're putting it under a microscope, because EVERYONE has moments like that.

    And keep in mind this was after they hadn't played for a long time.

    They missed out on a LOT of practice.
