People can play as well as Tim, but hardly anyone can write as well as him.
-
Tim plays as smoothlly as pouring a glass of wine. like wtf.
-
That's awesome. BTW, I don't think there's anything wrong with reacting to a song you've heard before as long as you're honest about it. Your insights are still valid and new to us.
-
Tim plays so effortlessly that it just looks like someone pretending to play along to the music.
-
For me it's not even the skills that impresses me but it's be ability to remember 15+ songs of this level on stage. Madness.
-
The way Tim is able to flow from explosive/complicated riffs to simplistic/controlled melodies like flipping a switch is awe aspiring.
-
Polyphia is the best example of a product of the digital age. Simply the fact they compose with a midi keyboard into a daw and then onto a guitar. Fusing instrument-composition techniques like piano->guitar or guitar->piano is really providing a new interest in music.
-
Tim has absolutely no wasted movement it blows my mind
-
I play guitar for over 30 years now. I've been listening to Dream Theater, Vai, Satriani, Shawn Lane, Jason Becker and so on. This was technically the most impressive arpeggio line i have ever seen!
-
Just saw them live. They were transcendent. Flawless playing, lots of energy, great tone, superb light show, great mix in the room, and on and on and on. They fucking KILLED it start to finish. Polyphia and Khruangbin have just reignited my love of guitar
-
Multi-instrumental musician here (majoring in percussion) Just wanted to say that your analysis and opinions are greatly appreciated. Seriously, the input you give genuinely opens my eyes and ears to different avenues of appreciation. Thanks a ton!!
-
The smile every guitar player gets on their face every time they hear this song, proof of how great it is on its own
-
the ease he plays this with is absolutely INSANE.
-
A prime example of someone with a natural born talent that has the time to nurture it. That's awesome.
-
Tim is going full circle and bringing āmetalā back to classical guitar
-
Tim Henson seems to have a tight grip on all the things - composition, morphing, mixing, testing, ideating, performing, exploring, organising... and there is a joy in his expressivity that I find very endearing. Thank you for your insights and analysis, as ever.
-
Tim is amazing. Both him and Scottie are a perfect guitar duo. Picking up the Clays though was the best thing for them as they are such a perfect groove backup for the band.
-
The ājazzy chord turn aroundsā are actually bossa nova, a Brazilian style of guitar playing, those chords in particular and the way itās played is very bossa nova and ultimately very reminiscent of samba
-
I love Tim and Polyphia, but I'm so glad you called out Plini. Plini is imo so easy to listen to, but still manages to present so much technique, both in terms of playing and songwriting. It's such a joy to listen to.
-
As an amateur jazz musician, I really appreciate Tim and the boys in Polyphia. Jazz has a lot of great use of dissonant chords that they take advantage of and it sounds great. It kinda feels like a blend of bebop, metal and trap lol. I agree with you on Tim, he looks like he could easily walk in Coltrane's steps. Who knows, maybe we will see a new "Free Jazz" metal in 10-20 years
