Tim Henson (the lead guitarist) posted a video on his channel of an uncut unplugged version so you can really focus on his finger work. He’s one of the most talented guitarists I’ve ever seen
-
Couple notes on the drummer. A big reason he uses such intricate and original hi-hat patterns is that the main songwriter Tim, usually starts by creating a song on his computer and programs a drum groove which often times uses heavy Trap/Rap influences where they have a ton of different hi-hat work in the beats. Also it comes fairly natural to their drummer because he started in a drumline in school and so his knowledge and experience with rudiments is top-shelf 👌

Dude you really know your stuff and your ear is very amazing I’m impressed by not only your ear and attention to detail but your ability to hear multiple details at once , basically what I’m saying is you can tell you know your shit , glad to know there is people who can hear out there
-
What’s great about these guys is they actually play what you hear. Those glitches you mentioned are genuinely performed, the amount of talent they have is absolutely absurd.
-
The thing you mentioned about orchestra players and violin/viola is interesting, as the guitarist with the black guitar (Tim) actually started out on classical violin and switched to guitar.
-
If you like their drummer Clay, you NEED to check out the video he did with Meinl cymbals playing their song O.D. It's insane and always worth a watch
-
great reaction! MORE polyphia pls!!
-
First reaction i have seen of yours, polyphia are incredible, one of my fave bands and this is my fave song of theirs. Really enjoyed your reaction to this. Subbing for more 🖤
-
There is a live guitar playthrough and drum playthrough as well that you may enjoy!! All 4 of these guys are absolutely virtuoso players and composers as well!
-
This is awesome stuff!
-
Great reaction young man! I only found this band about a year ago and I have been hooked ever since! Their old work is equally amazing...
-
Good job giving props to the drummer. Most overlook his part.
-
Do more polyphia! They're so good
-
Fun fact: Tim Henson, the composer and guitar player, the guy in the middle, he wrote that riff in a MIDI visualiser and had to find a way to play it with his fingers
-
Their drummer is Clay Aeschliman. Hes definitely my favorite member of the band! He has a drum playthrough of this song and several others that are all worth a watch. I believe his background is drumline but he definitely does a lot of trap drumming in their songs.
-
there's a drum playthrough vid out there of Clay, and it's something to behold
-
2:10 Tim has actually said that one of his processes for writing weird riffs like that is to feed a chord through Ableton's arpeggiator on random settings and then tab out the result.
-
It’s how it’s performed the glitch you here It’s part of effects they track with the guitar leads Cheers !
-
Great insight ! Please do a reaction to periphery lune live play through Would love to hear your thought !! Cheers
-
You need to listen to Tim's "my new signature guitar" version guitar only plugged in and/or his unplugged guitar only version even crazier than the music video
