Blind React: Playing God by Polyphia | Old School Guitarist's Reaction To Innovative Tim Henson!

[@photobyhe]

"Everyone needs a solo, except for the whistler" 2 minutes later Whistle solo! lol

[@joshchacko7729]

@@treblelife You should hear Ego death by Polyphia. Lots of solos.

[@Goru556]

You need to react to another of their new songs, Ego Death. It features Steve Vai which I'm sure you would love.

[@Goru556]

@@treblelife Thanks :)

[@steinblitz1506]

I love the knowledge you've contributed to this song for me. I highly recommend one of their older songs, G.O.A.T, as it features a solo for their bassist.

[@IBoy101]

@@treblelife the amount of layering in the song is insane

[@usuallyclueless4477]

@@treblelife There is a video of Tim explaining how this song was made ( and also one where its just him on the frame playing the whole song alone ). I think you might find those interesting.

[@samrakkc8595]

You said what I wanted to say 😅🤘

[@ElMountainMan]

If you do any more blind reactions to these guys, i would def recommend using headphones. There is a lot that can get lost in the abundance of chaos, that is polypha. That being said, great video! keep it up!

Dam you know your stuff brotha you were completely right about almost everything 💯🔥💪🏽

You have a journey ahead of you. This is the band that just KEEPS ON GIVING. I hear new elements EVERY time I hear the songs again. EVERY song is a different style, feel, and experience. ... Also I haven't heard a single song that doesn't stand up to the 'Song On Repeat for an Hour Test'. You said they should each get a solo ... Go back one album to their song G.O.A.T. (the first song of theirs that started my journey) and enjoy the Rabbit Hole. My favorite song by them so far is called 'Chimera' ... but it's really too close to say definitively. Steve Vai said the ... " ... best thing about Polyphia, is not the music they are writing today ... it's the music that they are going to inspire 10-15 years from now." Very high praise from a living icon that has himself inspired millions. The 'Steve Vai / Polyphia collaboration' BTW ~ is next level again from this 'Playing God' masterpiece. I love how you (without saying the words) said almost the exact same thing as Mr. Vai. You recognized something truly remarkable, I could feel it in your energy. I had the same initial reaction as well.

[@jamesbell8861]

@@treblelife ... Looking forward to watching. Happy to make quality music known to as many people as possible. You are very welcome.

[@herman023]

Polyphia is in a league of their own! Highly recommend watching them play GOAT, Ego Death, Chimera, any song really lol Tim Henson is one of the guitarists, he has his own channel with play throughs and such. I saw them live and it was amazing! Also check out Unprocessed, they tour together and the lead singer/guitarist is crazy talented his name is manuel gardner fernandes. They have a song called Real which features Tim Henson and Polyphia’s bassist Clay. Tim uses a thumping technique and its so awesome. Sorry for so many recommendations but your break down/reaction is great! You earned a sub!

@@treblelife I want to second this. I strongly recommend GOAT first (as it's several years older) and then Ego Death (ft Steve Vai) as it's much newer.

[@dennisnoone4878]

Really interesting breakdown of the song. I agree with you on two points: more smiles, less whistling. I'd enjoy seeing you do more reaction/breakdown videos like this!

[@MMShaggy]

This was so cool to watch, loved it.

[@rewnx]

This is super educational! Great work

[@theynvme417]

Polyphia - Ego Death all 3 guitarists get a solo, including Steve Vai. Its a master piece, find new things still after the 100th listen.

[@helldude13]

Good stuff, the video was solid. Hope you all have success with future videos

Thanks for this analysis, really enjoyable. This band are moving guitar based music into the future, and I'm here for it. You deserve more subs and I'm happy to give you mine.

[@3betmonkey]

Stumbled across your channel and am really enjoying your content. My music knowledge comes down to, that sounds good... I like it. Having someone like you explain what is happening in the song is very informative and gives me a new appreciation for music I already loved. Look forward to seeing more reactions and analysis from you in the future.

[@theAV8R]

Thabks for sharing! That said, careful, because it's a federal crime that this was first heard from an iPad and bot friggin headphones!

[@KingArthur7777xbox]

Watch G.O.A.T. By Polyphia, everyone gets a solo. It’s from 2018 I think and Tim (the guy with the neck tats) wasn’t tatted up yet. It’s a great song.

[@SergeofBIBEK]

Their first hit song that came before this did have everyone have a bit of a solo moment. G.O.A.T. is the song.

[@timmuller459]

when I clicked first I thought you actually where blind Hahaha

[@bdragon254]

Love the Polyphia reactions! Ok so you really really need to check out Marcin Patrzałek. If you like classical, try searching "Marcin Toccata".. and there are several others that are pure gold. If you want something more modern, try searching "Marcin Sweet dreams". Tim Henson (Lead Guitarist from Polyphia) and Marcin recently just did a collaboration together called "Classical Dragon" which is phenomenal. That should keep you busy for a while! LOL

[@mambamentality3085]

finally a reaction vdeo that is legit thank for sharing your thoughts keep it up!

[@LeperMessiah2]

Funfact: Tim Henson the frontman started shredding Metallica at the age of 16

[@SwedeSpeeder]

You should check out Andy James - Satellites. Much like this, it's an instrumental on guitar. It's something else. ;)

[@RoxyLuffer]

The whistler is just a guy they hired off Fiver to whistle something for the song XD

[@Marola_Reaction]

Next Alip_ba_ta Fingerstyle Reaction, he a fingerstyle from Indonesia is the best in the World.

[@Marola_Reaction]

@@treblelife Please i want your reacts to Alip_ba_ta,,,Bohemian Rapsody or The Last of the Mohican or another day Alip_ba_ta cover

[@アレックスの部屋-s9h]

Indeed it is hybrid picking, what you have misse is tim use a lot of harmonic notes.

[@tiaraguy7705]

I'd say a better way for you do edit the video would be to have the actual video on screen so you don't have to turn it to viewers and you can enjoy the full experience!

[@medusasound7396]

nice react :)

[@rudyardiansyah]

React alip ba ta please

[@bloodblitzowns11]

Nice arms my man. Had to say it.

[@Victtimus]

If you want everyone having solos their song GOAT ( greatest of all time) everyone takes a turn basically showing off. It's rather disgusting honestly.

[@freakyholic]

one of the most underrated youtuber reactor here. Why couldnt you be more famous?

I don't know! Maybe one day but for now I'll just enjoy the comments - like YOURS! Thank you
