Elitist - Domino Theory Guitar Playthough

[@ExpertofEverything]

Unmatchable tone for me. This band had the best sound, still sounds solid almost a decade later. Please do another album.

[@Dylaiin]

I practice Domino Theory on the 6 every day.

[@dongy762]

Damn, Julian you were so ahead of your time. Everything Elitist did, even with Chris and more of the Forever Orion inspired songs you guys made. Such a shame Elitist just never completely took off. The change in sound from 2013 and beyond pissed off obnoxious “djent” purists. You guys made the best riffs, catchiest hooks, and most memorable vocal choruses in the genre. If this dropped years later than it did, everyone would’ve praised it. Oh well, at least I’m still enjoying Elitist in 2020. Great lifting music tbh and I’m glad to rediscover them years later. Still remember every song when I hear it play. Legends never die.

Every Night for the past two month I’ll play this through my monitors while playing it on my guitar. My 10 month old son will immediately fall asleep every time without fail! Proud father atm!

[@progpogs]

This is really good. I have to say I'm not a huge fan of some of the full band + vocals here but the instrumental sounds great.

[@tayloreke]

OMG that riff at 1:05 The way it plays with the kicks is perfect.

[@jakubknioa1159]

yes, it's extremely good sounding riff

[@JRP3]

Why is this the best riff ever? I can't stop listening on a loop.

[@Cole444Train]

his fingers move so calmly. no urgency. never seen someone play like this before.

[@crzxm]

Did he write it? Then add technique = precision playing

[@clarkcant4818]

@@crzxm he reminds me a lot of aj minette, both dudes play virtuosic technically mind boggling styles but are so effortlessly locked in with the way they move across the neck. elitist and human abstract are two of my favorite bands for that reason, the drums are so in sync with the insanity going on with the guitars. the earth ep is the most unique djent release ive ever found

[@crzxm]

@@clarkcant4818 it's been a while since I've heard that album.

[@crzxm]

@@clarkcant4818 I mean EP.

[@jeffwilliams3224]

Look up Jason richardson

[@core2zero]

must learn to play this song... f-ing love it

[@TyronTention]

Songsterr.com has a few tabs of 10 of their songs. Sadly, not this one, however. :/

[@TyronTention]

Nick Carney :D

[@core2zero]

Nick Carney marry me

[@theax40]

The dissonance in all the riffs is so good. Makes everything seem so on edge.

[@OrlandoAponte]

I just noticed the kick drum is louder when the main riff comes back at the end, which is part of why it sounds so epic when that theme returns.

[@ScatteredGlassStudio]

Whoever shot this did a great job. Great camera movement, editing, and color.

[@zackharrington4359]

dude, this is completely amazing. i understand that people can have different taste but this is def not generic. people just have a natural instinct to bitch instead of listening. lets see you write something this talented.

[@ghostgate82]

I miss the good old days of Julian and Sean being an unstoppable duo. :(

[@AcidMinecraftRuperts]

Thanks to you i found this band , It is a band? , Idk , I like it so much :). [I found a Shirt that had written "falling in reverse" and i google it and clicked on the first video .... meh.... i was reading comments and found with yours, i was curious and i google it too , so here i am]

[@ghostgate82]

***** Holy shit, that's awesome! Thanks google, for actually being useful. Also, check out ERRA if you haven't already.

[@TrbxZybrix]

***** I just did the same :D

[@humantorch961]

Omni Codex ERRA OP BAND

[@elitaniasilveira2915]

lkkkj

[@dominickguerra189]

These guys are always one of my go to bands!

[@erinthelooser666]

Damn man this is actually pretty fuckin sick!! I love that melodic as the fuck riff and the note choices are absolutely amazing.

[@brazzzzz]

Drop B tuning on the 6 string for djent. What a power move.

[@JoaLis91]

nice song and beautiful album.

[@Bigglesworthicus]

who says you need more strings? The riffs are strong.

[@aaronjones3181]

They tune the top string to a B, just like the top string on a 7-string. So they basically added the string, without actually adding it lol.

[@captainsoarineagle]

Aaron Jones so is it drop b or b a d g b e?

[@Ghost17110]

This is Drop B, all Elitist discography is IIRC except for a few tracks where Julian *might* have tracked it with a 7 string tuned to Drop B with a high F#

[@fromdepthswerise3024]

Mason Stanley to clarify your point, two of the songs on Reshape Reason were in 7-string Drop B. On the Between the Balance EP, "Echo in the Room" was in drop B flat. On their final self titled album, 4 of the songs were in drop A flat on a six string.

[@crzxm]

As long as you get your creative point across, the amount of strings don't matter.

[@crestfallen821]

The main riff still is still nutty af

[@sexy350Zowner]

Instantly bought the EP after hearing this, amazing stuff!!

[@UncleYoshi]

This playing can be called Zen & the Art of Effortless playing 🙏🏻🎸

[@Naxuu43]

This was JUST the song I wanted to see! So good and definetly not boring to watch. And btw I really like the fact that you acrually record a new track for these playtroughs and not just use the original by itself. Good job!

[@joedennis4393]

So freaking good! That was structured so well

[@dl.tatterson]

The riffs in this song are all so groovy and tasty and amazing.

[@joshharington7356]

Just went and bought every album they have on itunes. Geeeeeeeez :D

[@aaronmills4290]

Must, know! Pickups! They sound so tight and nice!

[@DaPsyCho888]

Normal Speed: Atmospheric Djent 1.25: Groove Metal speed 1.5: Tech Death speed Funny how that works out...

[@adamcarter143]

+MetalPajamas lmao aye

[@ZanderShepard]

tech death speed is fine af 👌👌👌

[@NielsValgaerenGuitar]

this band is so underrated

[@godhatesusall20859]

Love the groove, sick!

Without trying to offend anyone, but Djent music sounds better without voice or the screams, the instrumental development is an incredibly achievement to admire that sometimes is overshadowed by the screams. Of course, is just a personal opinion.

[@kevinv332]

I couldnt agree with you more. I have lots of friends turn down Elitist, Erra, Novelist, the faceless etc. Because they say there is too much going on. But once i show them a guitar play through. They are immediately head over heels for this bands. Because in a way. Even though i can actually get into this bands. Listening to them without vocals is alot more pleasing. And shit ton more beautiful. You actually get to understand what is going on. And capture every melodic and technical aspect of this insane works of art

[@danielayuch5498]

totally agree

[@BigBadBuzz]

Yep. Tends to be why I stick to bands like Corelia, Modern Day Babylon, Walking Across Jupiter etc. Screaming over top of non standard time signatures just sounds strange to me (Meshuggah being the exception).

[@humantorch961]

Yup you're totally right, I always include "Guitar Playthrough" in my searches.

[@danielayuch5498]

it is not necesary the 0-1-1-1-0 sound, there are more sounds in djent, but i agree, its not enough to constitute a genre.

[@jacobwhitus3715]

[@terydacktalscream]

[@MeganMcCarthyOfficialMusic]

help my student needs a backing track for this song for his assessment! Do you have one you could share?(one thats just ok for guitarist to solo over-guitart+vocals taken out)

[@HopeInTheHorizon]

hahah..........XD thanks for making my day Julian. This is the best song on the album & people still aren't satisfied. Because his cover was so much better?

[@nochanceofwinning9]

So good!

[@Sticky1254]

wow how original those suspended chords and syncopated chugs are new and exciting

[@julienparis3512]

Wow this is so good

[@carlosaular283]

julian si pudieras hacer un playthough con la cancion return to sender, es la cancion que mas me gusta realmente de este EP between the balance, mezcla muchos aspectos entre armonia, agresividad y bueno otros aspectos para no extenderme tanto, seria interesante que lo hicieras, saludos.

[@InVirtue]

How'd you get a black hardware on your white JP6? Shit looks dope.

[@Mathi7052]

Someone can tell me how is the name of the 3d effect on the intro? Thanks!

[@martinr7728]

***** ?

[@squiresuzuki]

+Mathi Langa you mean reality?

[@808BassMetal]

+Mathi Langa You're likely hearing a combination of ring modulation, delay/reverb and possibly a pitch shifter or two.

[@Mathi7052]

+Austin Pierce i don't was talking about the sound, i was talking about the intro of the video, where you can se the logo of Elitist, this logo have the effect "glitch" i was asking about that.
