Hey Jaime Slays great video as always brother. Hey I was curious how is that Jackson Slat 7 I believe it is treating. What do you think of it in terms of quality and bang for buck.

[@InfamouslyCantankerous]

Jaime Slays. Not sure if your into the band or not but you should do an Unearth riffs video they have some cool stuff if you haven't already I haven't seen one in your past videos. Just a thought great playing as always. AILD is awesome.

[@fabienchazelle49]

Metalcore wasn't dead. He just spent some times in prison.

[@azhariwarman]

Soooo original

[@otkogaming224]

Lol

[@beck3740]

so original.

[@RebelGaming4U]

I understand the reference but just saying metalcore was still alive with or without Tim. Killswitch Engage, Parkway Drive, Slipknot.

[@JH-ye8fd]

@@RebelGaming4U all of those bands changed their sound too much, As I Lay Dying is one of the few that is entirely metalcore, defines the genre, and is always satisfying

[@JamieSlays]

yessss

[@dcfromthev]

Minor Core

[@kelvinrodriguezjr2184]

Its the best sound why change it😂

[@charlesgoller71]

Intense and melodic. With a hint of complex rhythms adding an underlying layer of fruitiness late in the palette. Lol, cool riffs 🤘🏼.

The wombo combo

[@justinjones5388]

As I Lay Dying riffs are so iconic and have influenced so many.

[@stoneyhaze6634]

[@NoDoSwLa]

94 hours definitely has "end-boss" potential for a "not headbang-challenge"...awesome playing as always

[@anthonymanuel2911]

Through Struggle would be a good opener to throw them off. Starts with AILD so they're like the end has to be Killswitch or Parkway. NOPE! MORE AILD!!!

[@JoshShredz]

All of Shadows Are Security is just riff city. My wife actually makes fun of me because I literally hum the intro riff to Meaning In Tragedy almost daily.

[@bioheroplayer]

I find myself humming the main riff to Confined pretty much daily. It's becoming a problem lol

[@waterproof4403]

@@bioheroplayer I hum the riff on the chorus of confined

[@djpickard89]

You play an ocean between us wayyyy different than I do 🤣🤣🤣

[@anthonyjillali4287]

Wow it's really rare seeing you headbanging. You must've enjoyed playing that 94 Hours riff.

[@jessegolden23]

I remember first starting out learning guitar and discovering drop c, it's the only tuning I enjoy on 6 strings, if I play in drop d or standard I just feel totally uninspired and I dont enjoy playing as much

[@Mavvyd96]

Uhhh, isn’t Shaped By Fire in Drop A? You cheating bastard! The title says Drop C! Reeeeeeeeeeeee

[@AnarchyDucky]

Can't get enough As I lay dying.

[@Swayz3696]

I’m just sad “Nothing Left” wasn’t on the list 💔

Is it? Lol

[@Kewi09]

@Science Fiction think an ocean between us is way more difficult than nothing left.

Nothing left intro riff is junk compared to ocean between us intro riff

YESSSS MORE AS I LAY DYING! was just playing confined last night. such a fun song to play and bob ur head to. 94 hours is the same way.. they really do have some of the best riffs. The only other band that I can think of that makes riffs as good is Lamb Of God. But then again I am just getting back into guitar and metal for the first time in about 5 or 6 years..

Great video! AILD have too many great riffs! The Darkest Nights is still my favourite. The whole song is full of quality riffs. Meaning in Tragedy, The Truth of My Perception and The Sound of Truth are some other great songs.

[@thenoctus6722]

You never realize how technical AILD's riffs are...*until* you watch them being played! Being both technical and catchy is a rare skill!

[@preston2636]

Lmfao you can't be serious. I know most of their first 4 albums and they didn't get technical until the powerless rise. Everything before an ocean between us especially is very easy to play

[@jenstaverne9026]

Through struggle is their best song

[@thetrendkiller8444]

Alright then, I'll tune a guitar back to drop C. Probably gonna be a Dean Dime for now. Awesome video bro!!

[@bendanonfawkes4189]

which album is better? An ocean between us Or Shadows are security.. answer.. Yes

[@robertocahuevos23]

bro through struggle has such an iconic intro breakdown to me. As soon as that shit starts you just cant help but headbang to that shit

Probably either writes them himself or a common thing is to use a guitar pro file and export the drum midi tgen modify it as needed.
