[@jabez3142]

I love how Jason changes different moods throughout his songs

[@kyzer.d.hartley1402]

Surprised he hasn’t made one called “bipolar” yet. Kinda like vitalisms “bipolarity”

[@jamesmurphy3597]

I’d say the song were anticipating for “bryonias” is close enough

[@pathaleyguitar9763]

"The USG Ishimura is an interstellar mining ship and the primary setting of the original Dead Space game. " EDIT: This is truly one of the coolest things you've written, with some of the most beautiful melodies you've written. Incredible.

[@testi_test]

Dead Space 2 🔥

[@prettyponymonster]

Yeah Im waiting for this nerdy mf to cover a whole anime or vg ost. Like just go full andrew wk doing gundam with it

[@GemiKnight84]

OMG! When I read Ishimura, Dead Space was the first thing that came to mind. Assumed it was a coincidence. Dooope!

[@leestride2285]

Came to see if the name was a reference. Was not disapointed.

Me too bro

[@janellekrivoruk2493]

Yep

[@swissarmy_guy6228]

Pretty much.

[@recksmusic1487]

I've always been a fan of Jason's approach on making music. It's always a mix of elements that none of us could really expect, which is always amazing to listen to. Luke's drumming also made up for the greatness of this song. I mean, every hit, every groove, dynamics, licks, everything is on point. Both of them are surely a pair meant to be together. Their musicality are another definition of modern metal. Everything is original. I loved every second of this song. 🤘

[@60fpsplanet]

yep. JR is such a genius guitarist and should be one of the best guitarist alive right now

[@91earthlink]

His songwriting/composition on the first album is atrocious

[@Disciple_2819]

They both compliment each other perfectly.

[@sille202]

I agree 💯% love it!!

[@yokisullivan8647]

@@91earthlink atrocious?

[@waltermelon3800]

Ishimura if that’s a dead space reference then I love Jason even more.

[@ooferrell]

What's no surprise that Jason likes to play games so I'm pretty sure it's Dead space reference L o l..

[@waltermelon3800]

@@ooferrell Well it's more so I just feel like the dead space series doesn't get enough love.

[@UltimaRedFireEskimo]

For being one of the most technically advanced players out there, you have a really uncommon devotion to great songwriting. Such a breath of fresh air.

[@toddmiller183]

"Those drums felt like a very precise and practiced tumble down a steep hill. Smooth and terrifying." - My good buddy Mac. Best description I've seen yet.

[@feudalcartel3183]

Shout out to Jason Richardson I seen him live last night with baby metal and Dethklok it was amazing what a great performance, Milwaukee loved Jason Richardson a perfect opening act

[@DaTLMusic]

Jason richardson and animals as leaders back to back! Next week is hype

[@Limonardoxx]

Feel like a Final Fantasy soundtrack, the vibe is very cool. Congrats guys! i cant wait for the complete album!

[@marshallgoode]

That melody in the outro had a very FF7 vibe to it. Check out Tim Hensons latest upload. Very Final Fantasy vibe too.

[@Akkumako]

Yeah the outro to upside down also really felt like a Victory fanfare from FF

[@jani14jani]

I think I heard Jason say in a young guitar video that at least the tapping part middle of the song is inspired by the OG Final fantasy sound track.

[@TheRedAnvil40]

I could never play this but I bought the GuitarPro tab just to see the genius of music theory in it. Lot of people don't realize that's another really cool thing about Jason, his composition skills. Wild.

[@DarkestWinterNight]

maybe you could ))

[@theRealLeperchaun17]

Luke. I am 29 and have literally watched you grow up through KZbin well before the word alive. And to this day you inspire me beyond comprehension. Thank you.

[@thomasdjonesn]

I saw this played in Seattle in October 2023. It hit like a series of lightning strikes. For a certain kind of person, it is meditative and transcendant. I can't tell you where exactly I went, listening to it, but I can tell you it was where I'm supposed to be.

[@roidanshi7742]

Jason, I've never loved music like the kind you create. But now you're my inspiration. Thank you for this breath of fresh air.

[@winterkraul3716]

That melody man, tells a story for sure. Congratulations! This sounds beyond incredible

[@omnicrongaming6726]

The pure musicianship taking place in this video is absolutely mind melting, thanks you guys for blessing us with this musical gold

[@bryanhauser2444]

In my humble opinion this is the best song on the album. At 3:22 the melody and groove is just intoxicating.

[@MIZutv24]

YES YES YES 🔥🔥🔥

[@discoveranceband]

The progression of the song is so insane, had to listen a few times but yeah this is almost like, a symphony.. absolutely genius

[@FirionFF2]

That outro gave me some old school final fantasy vibes. Freaking killed it!

[@swifttest2012]

You're absolutely right jason's writing style has lot of film music elements and also that kind of music we can find in games, nd he must be FF fan for sure, since the entire XV song and an interlude /segment of Thot 2.0 sounds full of a great final fantasy vibe which it makes his music even more interesting than many shredders, I think I watched him playing the arpeggio intro from FF once here on youtube if I'm not mistaken!

[@BeanieGas]

This is so sick holy sh*t. I’m stoked for the other songs. I remember some of this on Instagram and the studio updates.

[@rawrmusic55]

Just saw Jason playing with All That Remains. He is unreal. Far and away my favorite guitarist. 🤘

[@Vinsolo98]

EVERYTHING SITS RIGHT AND TIGHT. A FUCKING MASTERPIECE!

[@johnnotreweh3989]

Amazing progression! The way the song opens up, the phrasing, the melodies... Such a masterpiece

[@jonathankey1533]

I really like how this one actually has emotional tone, something often missing from the prog seen. Beautiful

[@andrewcurry9910]

I always find it funny when the recording studio plugs itself in the credits. It was a room with a few red lights lol.

[@feartheprocess]

Got here from another place, but this is surely where I was meant to be. Pure gold.

Damn, that was quite the treat. Thank you.

This melody hits the spot exactly

Very nice!

It's finally out!!!! I've been waiting for this one from the moment i saw a small clip on instagram lol

[@jonwesley6455]

Bro this is your best yet. Beautiful

[@alexandercheskis]

I don't know who killed it more. Both of you guys are a force of nature but I think Luke's drumming here is just incredible. Jason you are still insane. Beautiful song too, so much shred but also really heavy on melodic hooks.

[@tylerhellard4478]

1:50 that lick

[@DarkestWinterNight]

I really love Jason's style - technically advanced, melodic and full of emotion (you can't go wrong when you are learning from the masters like John Petrucci). The drummer is amazing too

[@tzuyuhypetrain9791]

Beautiful

[@peppesgabello]

that ''sevens'' tapping run is so melodic

[@samziserson3052]

This gives me hope.

[@Exzial]

Started with one air pod in my ear. Ended up with two. I would have never expected such a beautiful master piece. Really digging this style of progressive of writing.

Yea, great way to check out a stereo produced track, with one headphone...

[@JeefBerky]

Wow!

[@JD-oy9ik]

What a beautiful composition!

[@JD-oy9ik]

It is 1 year later and I have returned to remark on how this is probably my favorite composition by Jason (without realizing that I already did, lol). I'm always anticipating your next album or guest solo. The recent solo you did for ABR was so sick. Short and to the point- it's over so fast, yet I wonder how long it took to write and rehearse. Keep up the good work, brother!

[@tylerhawksmoor9601]

@@JD-oy9ik yeah it's his absolute most beautiful tune imo. it makes my heart ache. to be honest retrograde is probably my second favourite- every element on that song just melds together perfectly.

Probably two of the best musicians of our era right here.

[@crowing3886]

Lol

[@moldy_burrito_]

Nah...they good. But there so many great musicians out there. Plenty better than them, at song writing Inperticular. This is basically fast shred and tapping one after another. No musicianship really here. IMO.

[@Chaosdude341]

[@2good2betrue3]

Amazing melody, Ishmura is one of the best songs JR has ever written.👍 (Although I still consider the "Aviator" solo my All time favorite.😉) the 2:52 to 3:17 mark is my favorite- reminds me of Guthries "Fives and Sevens" cool tapping. This is dope!🤟

[@boriente]

Yeah that Aviator was gnarly. Well constructed, neo-classical, shreddy.

[@chriszaferes5984]

Just INSANE! Jason is from another planet, and Luke is beyond words!
