Saw Polaris 4 nights ago and had my knee snapped while they were playing this. I'm having flashbacks

[@JacobMartin]

sutekhxaos Fuck that’s rough, sorry about giving you PTSD then hahaha. Was that the Brissy show?? I was there that night. Hope the knee heals up man!

[@emeryishere7415]

Dude they are fr on some other shit. When I saw them I was fucking mind blown lmfao

[@antimoustique3175]

I remember watching Ryan Siew's covers like 5 or 6 years ago and last February I saw Polaris live opening for Architects here in France. Now you're playing his song. I feel like you will follow the same path! Keep up the good work, your playing is amazing!

[@JacobMartin]

Ah thank you dude! Yeah I watched Ryan's covers back then too. Playing shows like that is the dream! Guess we'll see how it all unfolds with time

[@Good081]

Best set of knees on youtube hands down.... and amazing as always!

[@JacobMartin]

Good081 😂 They really do steal the show! Thank you friend ❤️

[@DudeWheresMyTom]

I've seen many a guitar cover in my time.. Until now, none have contained a buddy necking a beer and jumping in on the chugs, or a smooth jazz social outro Subbed

[@JacobMartin]

Tom Linton 😂 Man, thank you for subbing!

[@tylersaltmarsh9025]

You ought to do a rundown of your ax8 patches, they sound filthy!

[@JacobMartin]

Tyler Saltmarsh Cheers Tyler! Double tracking with different cab impulses on both sides helps with width and whatnot. I will do a video on it, been saying that for ages though 😂

[@tylersaltmarsh9025]

@@JacobMartin definitely! I'm planning on getting an ax8 soon and have always been confused with all of the filters, eq curves, and other random knobs that go into making a good patch. If younget around to it, you best believe you got a thumbs up already!

Polaris have some of the most flavorsome riffs. So metal an so ambient. Great cover bro. So keen for some new #POLARIS in 2019

[@JacobMartin]

Daz B Thanks dude! I heard their new track live the other night and let me just say we are gonna be in for a treat haha.

[@orangeice6454]

Amazing job! Your covers are always on a high level of perfection 💯. And also there are places for entertainment and fun) Absolutely love the moment when another bro has come to hang out along during the breakdown 😁 P.S. RIP Ryan Siew…

[@PhantomGuyPL]

aaand this is what motivates me to practice guitar. You are killing it, man!

[@JacobMartin]

That's awesome! Thanks so much man :)

[@AlexSpetz]

Such a beast of a tune... thats also so weird, 8 hours ago i googletubed playthroughs for this tune then 20 minutes ago randomly saw your upload upon opening the tube again. Its even better than the polaris playthrough 😂 thank you man, fine work as always

[@JacobMartin]

ALEX CREES Hah, no way! Good timing then 😜 Nothing could beat the Polaris playthrough, but I’m really happy you enjoyed my take on it dude! 😊

[@karlb1]

[@JacobMartin]

Adam kahn It’s a really fun tuning!

[@adamkahn8645]

@@JacobMartin if youre a fan of experimenting, heres a tuning inspired by Mark Tremonti: A D A D A D D .... its open D5 tuning. you can create brutal lows, but such amazing cleans that you can create a lot of atmosphere with.

Man that lead part at 1:24 just kills me. How do you play it so cleanly?!?

[@JacobMartin]

Joe Scanzillo Man it took longer than I’m proud of haha. That part gave me trouble as well, I really underestimated how difficult it would be

[@Joescanzillo]

Jacob Martin yea I’m finding the solo easier than that part lol

[@mark78750]

Great song and great playing!

[@reticle36]

Great tone!!! & playing

[@JacobMartin]

Thanks dude! 🤘

[@reticle36]

Jacob, i forgot to ask you: what plugin software do you use to get such great tone?

[@JacobMartin]

Sorry Jean, only just saw this message then. I use the 5150 amp profile on my AX8 paired with Misha's djent cab impulses. Basically from there it just goes into Pro Tools (or any DAW of course) where I run it through a few plugins. Light compression to control some low end, into an EQ to roll off the extreme highs and lows and control some of the mids, and then I think another API style compressor for some pick attack.

VictorHugoPDrums Thanks heaps man! The only time the 7th string gets used in this song is for that power chord at 1:29 haha

[@victorhugopdrums618]

@@JacobMartin Thanks for the info. I want to cover this but the thing is that i only have a 6 strings guitar, so if that the case i guess i can miss one note in the entire song lol

[@sammytheman8994]

So well done man!! When you do cover videos do double track the rhythms or you think leaving one guitar is better?

[@JacobMartin]

Thanks dude! Both options are great! I usually double track my guitars though. Bit more work involved but it makes for a wider and fuller tone.
