[@richp2704]

You notice that the toy piano melody at the start is actually the overlying rhythm of the entire track

[@bobcieslinski]

Yep good call! Thanks for watching!

[@mendronesg]

I believe it's the motif of the song, actually Which is pretty much what you said with a fancy name XD

[@shadowproductions969]

Tim Henson, the guitarist that wrote the majority of this song and did the intro guitar riff talks about this a lot in his videos. It started with him learning music by copying a Jayden Smith song and then taking the piano parts and adding his own melody over it then just "flexing" his chops to that riff with a trap beat which was adopted to live music

[@Walterthefriendly]

Imagine playing this in the 1920's for a live unexpecting crowd

[@bobcieslinski]

I think the crowd would have been stunned and in complete awe.

I love the disconnect between regular people and people who are involved with making music when they react to polyphia. Regular people are like "umm that was cool?" and music people are drooling. Another band that gets the musicians to react a lil spicy is doll$boxx. Very different, but extremely talented none the less

[@bobcieslinski]

Yep you are right. Thanks for watching and the suggestion! I’ll have to check them out.

[@theshevanel]

@@di-sy I could understand musicians not vibing with the complex math rock elements, as it's definitely not for everyone, but to not be amazed by and appreciate the composition and musicianship as a whole is absurd.

[@wsliv4611]

They sound fantastic live also.

[@theonlyrobot]

We just know how hard it is to play something like this. Or at least we have an idea. People like Tim and Yvette that can play a guitar like a piano are the nth degree of the nth degree, but to people that haven't at least tried to play... It just sounds like weird keyboards to them. As Bob points out, their rhythm section is just world class, too. Thank god for people like them that make music for us to geek on. PS... Does anyone else want to give their drummer $500 to go buck wild on Buddy Rich for 15 minutes? I want to hear him swing. I bet it would be worth 2x the money.

[@remus2565]

Thanks for your reaction to this. I am 38 and haven't played in a traditional band since grade school. But when I heard this song, my music ear tuned in and I had to listen to this song on repeat for about 20 minutes because of all the complexity. I shared this song with friends and no one could appreciate the complexity in the song and how much skill is needed to have this kind of timing. I have seen some videos of them playing live and they hold this mastery even on the stage.

[@bobcieslinski]

It does take a few listens to really get what’s happening. Thanks for watching I appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@cowfreezy]

All your band students are gonna think you’re cooler than you were before reacting to this now.

[@bobcieslinski]

Probably true. 😂

[@philippruizlozano]

I'm 101% sure of that 😎

[@nondescriptcat5620]

the best grooves feel like the drums and bass are two people cooperatively playing one instrument. check out Sokoninaru, Dirty Loops, and Covet. some of the best musicians i've ever heard.

[@bobcieslinski]

I agree! Thanks for watching and for thr suggestions! I’ll check them out.

[@Rabant777]

I second Covet. Saw them opening for Polyphia ....... don't want to say that Covet blew Polyphia away, but I will say that the jaws of all the guitar players in the crowd were on the floor when Yvette played.

React to TOOL Fair warning: You will gain many passionate viewers BUT you will have to do more Tool songs! :)

[@upsidedownpyramid7617]

Craziest thing is Tim Henson, the lead guitarist with the short hair was only like 23-24 when this dropped, he arranges alot of the music and he prides himself on creating these catchy, complex, almost trap-music-esque riffs.

[@chinruiz4113]

5:16 their style of kick-to-bass drives that 808-fruity-loops hiphop feel

[@Bassgod84]

Hey many really appreciate you’re perspective. Great reaction! By the way you can use the space bar to pause/resume and the left and right arrow keys to flash back like 5 seconds or something like that!! Great video

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for the kind words Ryan! Yeah sometimes I forget about the space bar and arrow keys. I’ll have to remember for thr next one. Thanks for watching!

[@jakethebard]

It's so cool to see a band director doing music reactions! I love seeing people who are largely from my industry getting into this kind of stuff!

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks Jake! I’m having a blast sharing this great music with people. Polyphia are awesome musicians. They are beasts!

[@jakethebard]

@@bobcieslinski I'm curious if you've seen sour looks from, for lack of a better term, the old guard of band directors when they see music like this. I've come across more than I'd like who immediately say they don't like it for a myriad of reasons like "it's too complicated", "It's too fast", "I just don't like rock", and even the eye-rolling excuse of "this sounds satanic" 😂 You should react to the guitarist Plini! He's an Australian guitarist who is an absolute virtuoso. I recommend starting with his song Pan from the album Impulse Voices. And make sure you check out the album version. It features an instrument solo that a person wouldn't immediately expect in a progressive rock song. When I first listened to the song it actually made my eyes sweat a little.

[@jtjones73]

And no one steps on anyone else's sound. With everything that is going on, all the complex and insane playing and they are so in time with each other that no one steps on or plays over anyone else, they play along instead. That takes some serious talent. You should watch Rick Beato's interview with Tim Henson. I was about ready to just toss my guitars in the fire pit out back after he told Rick that it took him quite a while to get his solo's for GOAT down, maybe an hour or two! Seriously? It took me an hour or two to be able to listen to the entire guitar part. But then Tim never stops playing his guitar in every interview I have seen him on.

[@bobcieslinski]

I totally understand Jeremy. I did watch that video and when I heard that I was hoping he would say a week at least. Some people just get things easier. I’m not one of them. Hang in there and keep moving forward that’s what it’s about.

[@ramrod924]

I've never noticed how the bass drum and the bass were hitting a lot of those notes together during the bass solo

[@bobcieslinski]

Yeah and it’s incredible how together they are. It’s really hard to hear it unless you know to listen for it. Thanks for watching! I’m gonna do another one of these soon.

[@Cvillain626]

7:10 maaaannn this takes me back, when I was in HS we had this place called the MRC (Music Resource Center) which was basically a full-on studio just for kids. They converted the basement of an old church and used the main floor for shows, I've literally been a part of this scene just jammin in a church with friends xD

[@bobcieslinski]

Wow that sounds pretty cool and amazing!

I love seeing a band teacher react to this compared to just a guitar or drum teacher. It's really great how you can add something about the song as a complete, and how certain players are playing together in certain rythms. Great video!

[@trevorjrooney]

This recommendation is for something much heavier than this but still wonderfully complex. There's a live version of the band Ne Obliviscaris performing their song And Plague Flowers the Kaleidescope. It was the last song of an hour long set, and they perform it flawlessly. You might call the genre symphonic metalcore, and this band is studied for their compositional abilities in the Sydney Conservatorium.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for watching! I’ll check it out thanks !

Vampires do make amazing music I'll agree with one thing that you said for certain - "these guys are beasts and they don't care that you're watching"

[@RaymondBCrisp]

The polyrhythms and syncopation here is just off the charts. I don't even see how you conceive of such a song, even though I've see Tim's "how it's made" vids of G.O.A.T. Guy is certainly a creative genius on a par with any of the great modern composers. Edit: I also have to comment about the ghost notes they are employing here.

[@bobcieslinski]

Yeah Raymond it is off the charts. I think Tim is a genius too and all of the guys in the band are just beasts on their respective instruments.

[@BraceDeville]

This is an unbelievable group of master musicians of which the drummer is maybe the most talented of them all.

[@bobcieslinski]

So true! Thanks for watching !

[@imagzz4942]

I would say that Tim Henson (the lead guitarist) is the most "talented" (I prefer skillful) of them, also partly because he is the main one writing the songs and has a very creative mind (as well as of course being an exceptional guitarist).

Goat is an amazing riff. I play it with the bass notes an octave lower on my 8 String tuned to Drop E. The riff is hard, but with enough practice everything except for the fast sweep picking part becomes pretty easy.

Wow that’s so cool that you are playing that. These guys are beasts and I’ve seen the tab and it’s nuts. Thanks for watching!

[@upsidedownpyramid7617]

I agree with this, I played the riffs on bass and guitar and they are catchy and complex but not too impossible, except for that sweep part in the main riff, I am not a great guitarist but I have been playing a good few years and I still can't get it up to speed.

[@Mocorn]

There are two kinds of GOAT reactions. 1. Wow, that's so cool! 2. Woah, listen to how synced the drums and bass are! 3. Bonus for noticing not just the synced hits but also the synced duration of the hits!

hi mr cielinski it’s chloe in band

[@bobcieslinski]

Hi Chloe! How are you doing today?

[@dawnsnewhope]

Was the drummer chewing gum in the last scene? Wow.

[@bobcieslinski]

I did t notice that Dawn. I’ll go back and look. Sometimes musicians move their mouth when they play. It’s a possibility for a drummer.

[@shaunbrown3435]

Check out The Omnific. You wont be disappointed. I guarantee it.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks I will check it out.

[@paulymolly9380]

Now react to Playing god by Polyphia please

[@bobcieslinski]

Hey Pauly, that video will be out in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@srhiers29]

If you like this, check out "Tenohira De Odoru" by Sokoninaru. They're like Polyphia on meth.

[@bobcieslinski]

I’ll check them out, sounds good. Thanks fir suggesting them.

[@castanza128]

Those aren't fills. That's the beat!

[@ianpodmore9666]

Not really my kind of music, but by God they can play.

[@bobcieslinski]

They sure can Ian and I appreciate it. No matter what type of music genre awesome is awesome for me.

[@charliestrauser8448]

Wait till he finds out about CHON…

[@bobcieslinski]

Hey Charlie. I just did one of Chons videos not too long ago. Hope you saw it. They also showed up in a Polyphia video I just did too. So good.

[@zZhippyZz]

You would lose your mind over andy james.

[@bobcieslinski]

I’ll have to check him out. Thanks for suggestion him.

[@ConleyBoy99]

Check out Ichika Nito sometime. You're welcome

[@bobcieslinski]

Sounds great and thank you!

[@KUM0]

Tim Henson is definitely the guitar god of my generation

[@aaronhall4520]

He's in that crowd for sure. Jason Richardson is someone to watch. Charles from Berried alive is probably the most inventive guitarist I've ever seen. just a couple more to check out if you like guitar porn

[@bobcieslinski]

For sure that dude can play some incredible licks that are hard to replicate. He’s a beast Kumo!

[@sunkhunt9748]

You reacted to the beginning of the video as though you'd never seen/heard it... You then introduced the bass solo, before it happened. Hmmm...

[@bobcieslinski]

Good question but if you watched the video right before that comment I mentioned how I thought the effect was cool that they had the soloist moving to the new soloist and of course they showed thr bass player after Henson walked by him. I assumed it was going to be a bass solo next then. I hope that makes sense.

When you steal Windows

[@bobcieslinski]

Unfortunately it’s probably more an issue with how I built my computer. When the build was done and I installed the software the key code did not fully unlock the software. I spent too many hours with support on the phone and gave up. So there it sits and there is nothing I can do about it.

[@kellymcq]

@@bobcieslinski I was just joking :)

[@ryhu4755]

Apparently they are as good live.

[@bobcieslinski]

I just missed them this year. It would have been a great concert.

[@aarondavis4067]

Did you record this with your source in a fish tank? The audio quality is terrible...

[@bobcieslinski]

Hey Aaron it was the first reaction video and the equipment was not cooperating. The newer videos are better.

[@SHIN_MAJIN_UMBRA]

What is a band teacher?

[@bobcieslinski]

I teach kids how to play instruments in a school band. Trumpet clarinet flute etc.

[@edwardcieplehowicz9712]

what is a band teacher?

[@bobcieslinski]

I teach students who are in school how to play instruments that you would find in a concert band. Things like Flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, French horn, saxophone, euphonium, tuba and drums. My main instruments are sax and clarinet plus I play bass guitar.

[@omgabear]

Activate windows please.

[@bobcieslinski]

Hey Yeo Yi. It’s annoying for me because it is a legit copy of windows 10 I bought when I built thr computer. For some reason tech and myself have no clue why the message is showing. I finally gave up trying to fox it.

[@claytonkeever2992]

Jesus drummer is best part...off beat, but keeps the beat...hella TOOL vibes.

[@bobcieslinski]

He is soo sick for sure.

[@actuallynotsteve]

Activate Windows my man!

[@bobcieslinski]

Unfortunately I did with an actual copy of windows 10. I don’t know why the message is there. The only thing I can think of is I build the computer and installed the software. Something is not playing nice inside the computer and I think it is causing this issue. It’s so annoying and I called tech and they tried to solve it but they could not so now I’m stuck with it. Lucky me.

[@silas2350]

Ozric Tentacles. 0-1. You`re welcome.

[@bobcieslinski]

Thanks for thr suggestion.

[@StrafeyCW]

all i hear is dubstep like if he picked up a guitar and just said welp I can't play guitar so ill do this instead.(BTW I don't hate polyphia I just don't like their music it sounds like they wanted to write dubstep but they didn't know how to program it so they picked up their instruments instead)

[@bobcieslinski]

That’s a fair statement. Thanks for watching!

[@antonvoltchok7794]

What’s up with the audio quality in the video, it’s significantly degraded, are you actually recording from a mic pointed at speakers playing the music video? Please don’t do that haha

[@bobcieslinski]

No Anton. Just early days of my channel. Better equipment now.
