TOP 10 AS I LAY DYING RIFFS

[@CaseyWalle]

If it wasn't for An Ocean Between Us (Album) coming into my life at the perfect time during one of the most difficult times of my life, I probably would never have started playing guitar. Nick and Phil are 2 of my favourite guitarists and human beings, these 2 lads paved the way for newer Metalcore and in my opinion were way ahead of there time. Despite the controversies with the band's past, As I Lay Dying were my favourite band for a long time and this video is very important to me. When I started playing guitar it was my goal to play these songs, I probably achieved that a long time ago but to make a video of this quality is even more satisfying. Please give a thumbs up, a sub, a comment, everything helps me continue making quality videos. Cheers guys! ❤❤

[@sergepalekha]

ha same, an ocean between us lead me down deep into the metal genre

[@JasonMontell2501]

When did u first hear the band?

[@CaseyWalle]

@@JasonMontell2501 might've been 2005 or 2006

[@timbennet3326]

yes! badass playing dude, super clean and tight. whats your signal chain?pickups and amp?

[@JasonMontell2501]

@@CaseyWalle me too. Shadows are security is still my favorite album

[@ndefiore]

Well done. And also thanks for playing more than just 7 seconds of the riff and moving on. Love the longer format than what everybody else does

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks dude, first person to really comment on that aspect. A lot of the time, the thing that makes a riff good, is the build up or the transition. It's hard to enjoy 7 seconds of a riff when there's really no climax.

[@kanestarrett9019]

I will sit through a whole play through of all these. Well done my man

[@elliottjesser2813]

Also glad he didn't just play all the popular ones.

[@quantumxfluxmd6821]

Some people really forget how iconic AILD is to the genre. Great video man

[@etb943]

this is like a "try not to pull out your guitar challenge".... i lost after forsaken came on lol

[@CaseyWalle]

Haha I love it! Forsaken will definitely do that to you haha

[@thewikemeston]

The chorus of Parallels is in my top 5 favorite riffs of all time

[@mikemelara9591]

I forgot about this songs chorus… HEAVY… perfect melody.

[@TheGreyGhoul]

Top 3 for me. Amazing chorus

[@eyeballs_ian]

Please do pt.2 of As I Lay Dying songs!! Ever since I watched this video I suddenly became an AILD fan!!!

[@lucdeverteuil1244]

Nostalgic af. I want to learn every riff in this video. Great job mate!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks man!! They are hella fun to play.

[@Peter_Velardi]

And if it wasn’t for you I’d prolly have never attempted to play any ERRA material. You’re an absolute monster dude, cannot wait to see what you do with a 7 string. Keep slayin 🤘🏻

[@CaseyWalle]

Love the cycle!! I hope you can be an inspiration for others too ❤️

[@kmw5100]

they have always had some of the most captivating riffs in all of metalcore.

[@HiThereFaceHere]

This was damn good. Made me appreciate Phil Sgrosso so much more. Dude is a musical genius

[@stevecourt346]

Finally! Someone playing the My Own Grave intro riff right! Love this video

[@adrianpearcy8531]

5:29 Goosebumps!

[@slrnoise]

I remember covering 94 hours and a bunch from an ocean between us as a kid. Thanks for the memories!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks for watching brother I enjoy your content too. ❤

[@ymwo97679]

Need a full “my own grave” cover from you man. Mixing was sooo good better than the original imo

[@rembrandao]

My favorite riff is from the Overcome song. Absolute killer. The whole Awakened album is criminally underated. Probably the fans don't like it because ut sounds more like Swedish melodeath than metalcore.

[@inklover69]

A masterpiece ❤

[@international_perspective]

Dude, you killed those riffs. It was so satisfying to sit and stare at those riffs when I've pictured how they might look for so many years. I'm dusting off the cobwebs and joining a cover band to perform a few "2008 myspace metalcore" shows and 'Nothing Left' is on the setlist. That song is way harder to get tight than I thought. Your control and ability to silence any white noise was great, I hope I can achieve the same thing, especially live.

[@juana8099]

I use to have a buddy who could shred he thought me nothing left I use to bug him so bad to play it one day he said get my other guitar and the other amp and sit down after a few hrs and weeks of practice he said dude it’s time to learn something new lol

You’re probably not on here super often, but I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for posting this. AILD was THE band that got me into metal a very, very long time ago. And I just started playing guitar 2 weeks ago. Your video came up on my recommendations and boy am I glad I clicked! Keep shredding brother! Amazing.

[@CaseyWalle]

I still read everything. Glad to hear that and I hope you enjoy the journey! :)

[@Jimminityjabooboo]

I love the breakdown in Confined Phil is such a beast at writing riffs. This cover is so well done, man. Good work would love to see more bro!

[@kopan14]

couldn't agree with you more, AILD, B4MV ... era also made my falling into Metalcore and motivated me a lot to keep learning and playing guitar since then you nailed those covers and very nice tone, too cheers mate \m/

[@metalfreekz13]

My Top 10 10. Meaning In Tragedy 09. The Wreckage 08. Condemned 07. No Lungs To Breathe 06. Comfort Betrays 05. Parallels 04. Morning Waits 03. Shaped By Fire 02. Wasted Words 01. Collision

[@CaseyWalle]

I love the riffs in Comfort Betrays, the riff after the solo is a big slap.

[@Anonymoususer78913]

Where is confined on this list!?

[@davidarchambault2093]

Awesome job dude! I’m surprised Through Struggle isn’t here (not a critique, just genuinely surprised!). My personal favourite is probably Sound of Truth :)

[@psychosis8429]

This is sick it makes me wish I could play my my guitar right now. I love that there's a lot of stuff from An Ocean Between Us, The Powerless Rise and Shadows Are Security, those are my favorites by them

[@pmedic523]

Sick dude. Very nicely done. Gotta go back and listen to some of the classics now. The only ones I’d personally add is the sound of truth and through struggle.

[@jacks910]

Awesome video man, riffs sounded super clean and as good as there original version. Cool that you know how to play so many different and unique AILD riffs. 10/10 guitar playing, you should be proud.

[@CaseyWalle]

Thank you so much sir! 🙏🙏

[@brunodargor]

Metal bands with the best riffs today: As I Lay Dying, Lamb Of God, Symphony X I accept more suggestions!

[@AwneeSalahuddin]

Homeboy remembers finger placement on his his guitar and ass placement. No matter the shirt or the song, he is on point facing the same angle playing like a badass. 😊

[@michaelhite361]

Ozzfest 2005 at post gazette pavilion I was drunk as fuck passed out in the lawn before you get to stage 2 as I lay dying came on started playing I woke straight the fuck up and was sober as a judge because they were so good I I love the darkest nights riff

[@ProdByClockwerk]

I love how he’s playing stuff that is super technical, powerful, and heavy yet he looks as nonchalant as though he was drinking a cup of coffee Edit: Hey mate, I’d lose my shift if you covered House Of Glass (by ERRA.)

[@CaseyWalle]

Haha it's actually the complete opposite! I'm trying so hard not to fuck up I can't make a different expression.🤣 I love House of Glass so we'll see what happens. I'd like to make videos like this where I focus on the best parts of each song.

[@ProdByClockwerk]

Hah. Whatever your expression you kill it! And and doing the best part of songs you like as you did here is a sick idea!

[@rw5170]

Please no one think i am hating on as i lay dying. But this video proves to me the weakest part of as i lay dying is Tim Lambesis. Love them musically. Top 5 band honestly. But his vocals are too loud and cover up the beautiful riffing that goes on with the.

[@ragnar_lthbrk]

Wait, no The Darkest Nights ? The only riff that non-metal people are singing along 😊😊😊

[@half_a_musician9581]

Oh man, those riffs never cease to bring out goosebumps for me, and you nailed them with such clean precision! I love the intensity "My Own Grave" brings out with those gallops. "My Only Home" shares that intensity. Riff on!!

[@dshufflz3129]

Back again, unreal playing dude. Truly masterful💯🔥

[@ThrashCoreAlexx]

Более мёртвого звука захочешь накрутить, хрен получится...

[@DavidHolder-n6z]

Awesome video but I have one question. No morning waits or sound of truth?!

[@torndu57]

GOOD JOB MAN. (Confined still hits like a truck lol.)

[@davidpech3283]

Pls more. AS I LAY DYINGs riffs are GOATED!!!❤

[@ILLRICARDO]

This is awesome, can you do a video like this for best god forbid riffs constitution of treason and gone forever are my favourite albums.

[@jihamiya5755]

94 Hours sounds so corny and cringe at this age 😂 The others still sound absolutely golden!

[@SvargoSlav]

My fav Metalcore band ❤️‍🔥 Thx Man \m/

[@redflipper992]

holy fucking hell, what was the riff around @6:42?!!!!???

[@mil_fillipe14]

lads.. i really want to find some band like As I Lay Dying... someone have some sugestion, pls??? I've heard a lot of metalcore thru 10 ro 15 years.. But is hard to find some band with this rich guitars riffs, powerfull voice and profund letter... Do u understand?? Modern Metalcore is alway talking about women and "bad-governants"... its so boring.. I want something more deep.. AILD talks about religion, moral questions, rage against our superficial lives, seeking something more.... The thematics have sense with "being metal"... well.. I miss bands like this... do u have any sugestion?

[@mil_fillipe14]

even old bands... Im open ears

[@Joshuahowell-j1g]

Kick ass. Metalcore is Life. Shred on Guitar players

[@sloshywhale9168]

Dang dude you played so good I could hear the vocals in my head 😁😈

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks boss 🤘🤘

[@user-ct3ml6iu4n]

Brilliantly played! which plugin did you use for recording?

[@fonzoboy646]

Again I see this playing. I happy see this. Sorry for my English)

[@ancientgalaxy7697]

No Through struggle? Great video 🤘

[@alaads5944]

awsome playing, but i feel like too many different rhythms/tones to take at once

[@Joshuahowell-j1g]

Does anyone notice Erra in the background. Dudes got the sickest stage set ever.

[@dragonsage34]

Side note. Does that 6 string guitar look wider than a normal 6 string or is it just me?

[@thatmetalhead2182]

Sick cover, bro. As I lay dying are my top favs of metalcore along with Killswitch engage.

[@aidenyuri]

Same man.

[@thebenis3219]

Parallels is such a great song. Absolutely love the riffs bro!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks man 😊 glad it was fun to watch.

[@midwestyeti263]

Solid dude! Killer shit! So calm and relaxed shredding the crap out of that guitar! One of my favorite bands. Well done indeed!

[@kraze9889]

Amazing job! What guitar model is that beauty?

[@lukejenkinson9937]

Damn I love the tone for 94 hours, chugs like hell ♥

[@destindefender7627]

Can you tell us which plug-in's did you used for the video?

[@oxmodius]

I forgot how sick wrath upon ourselves is, damn

[@rafaelsoto4742]

Nice list! An ocean between us has been one of my all time faves

[@kevintrochez3274]

Sounds amazin man really solid, what guitar is that one?

[@breakingblackmagic7617]

your playing 94 hours wrong...the harmoic at the very end of the riff is a pinch harmonic on the A string.5th fret. since i helped write the song.....

[@CaseyWalle]

Awesome thanks.

[@deukaofficial326]

Where is sound of truth😢😢

[@Lennyplays234]

Exactly 😢

[@Andybility]

Those gallops on My own grave are insane

[@paulrodriguez2544]

If you stop making these I'll unfollow you.

[@nickschnellmusic]

The Above, Below album art in the back made me so happy. What a criminally underrated band!!

[@CaseyWalle]

They need to put out more stuff

[@Yanzar98]

добавил в закладки видос, буду учить трек за треком

[@chr1s00]

Sick man Where you get tabs for my own grave?

[@titzmageex]

Shame they are pretty much done for good now. Bands can sometimes survive swapping musicians, but Josh leaving was the nail in the coffin for me. My favorite band ever. Will forever listen to their stuff.

[@mitchlavigne7980]

Same here man. They'll never be the same.

[@fromdepthswerise3024]

I'll say this much: as long as Tim and Phil are still the primary writers, AILD will not die. They are the soul of the band - but losing three of the longest tenured members (and one of the best lead guitarists and overall nice guys in the entire industry) is a hard pill to swallow. They're about done with the new record, so we'll have to wait and see.

[@randomalbum9879]

Awesome! I'm glad you included riffs from the Shaped By Fire album. I just made a Top 10 AILD riffs video too if you want to check it out

[@hotrodhammee]

Meaning in tragedy 100% should be here

[@christianwelker7383]

Can anyone tell me what guitar this is? Or at least the brand? I’ve been searching for days….lol

[@CaseyWalle]

Skervesen, they sell for about 4k AUD

[@thisnameistaken]

What pickups do you have?

Wie kann man so geil spielen? Absolut perfekt und sauber, ich bin neidisch

I understood “Absolut perfekt” so thanks 👌

Great video, what guitar are you using brother?

[@jorgecontardo4347]

awesome and so clear sound!!! AILD is my favorite band and this video is one the best cover riffs!!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks brother, glad to hear it 😊

[@LudvigJosvason]

Dude, why are you strangling the low mids of your tone so much lol

[@CaseyWalle]

@@LudvigJosvason to piss you off

[@CoDisafishy]

No Sound of Truth? I was expecting it to be number one after not seeing it sooner. Still, very nice playing

[@CoDisafishy]

Also, I would have replaced one of these with The Darkest Nights probably. It's hard because all their riffs are so good.

[@CaseyWalle]

@@CoDisafishy different tastes my friend! As you said they’re all good, it just comes down to taste.
