Lick of the Week # 3 Augst 4th 2012

These are some arps sequenced if five note groupings. Pick Up Down Down Down Up ascending and the opposite descending Down Up UP Up Down. This is very difficult have fun.

[@Bantinck]

This Lick is making me missing the the old All Shall Perish so much, Please don't stop making good song, I beg to you :D

[@Reapersden666]

I still always find myself coming back to these licks and trying to practice them. Chris you do amazing work

[@GlockenspielSAS]

Really reminded me of Jeff Loomis´ Miles Of Machines... Great stuff, Chris!

[@federicoalbanese2858]

You are such an inspiration Chris, I love those licks of the week and really can't wait to hear you back in All shall perish!!! Wish you all the best

[@MGrizzard]

Chris, this is one of the best sweeping ideas I've ever heard. It's up there with some of my favorite Jason Becker stuff. Don't stop making these videos, these are basically diamonds waiting to be found man.

[@unreputed]

the diamond has been found

[@KyleChapmanGuitar]

That was so insanely awesome. It's got a very neo-classical Yngwie meets Michael Romeo sound to it. Very badass, dude!

[@AgentSpiral]

Sounds great fast, sounds FANTASTIC slow. This lick should be put in the slow, soothing part of one of the songs. With some really nice slow drums in the background.

[@trajabuster]

2019!!! great

[@ejlockpix]

Hey Chris, one of your former students. I like these licks of the week. this one looks pretty intense. good job my friend.

[@illuminoid22]

So classical sounding! Gotta learn this!

[@fershred]

Dude, your licks are great! they aren't simple at all! I can really see the effort in them

[@KBagaz]

SO good to see someone finally making use of the sweep but in a more interesting manner, as opposed to the typical 5 string major/minor shapes, this sounds fucking epic :D

[@Chrisshallperish]

i was really excited for it man

[@ImaDjentleman]

thank you for sharing these. my respect for you is now crazy.

[@Carlos-iw4zm]

nice lick man, I really like the progression

[@Deguoren96]

damn love your stuff you are an truly gifted player

[@SpencerAGuitar]

This is crazy man, I'll be practising this at half speed for a while ahah. I hope you're going to use this in a song or something, it's too good to be just a "lick".

[@NICKSCARFO83]

This one is really sick dude!

[@veritechzero]

This gives me some sweet new ideas. Thanks!

[@bANDynamiTe]

Chris I dig it!!! It sounds awesome around 130-150 bpm best!!

[@MrDreamsAlot]

Dude your seriously a great player

[@schobe34]

id like to see chris storey and jason richardson on guitar and the drummer lech from as blood runs black start a instrumental band :) i think that would be just a lil bit epic. thumbs up if you agree?

[@bryancheaney3821]

I cant even try to play this but he is so bad ass I just watch his videos for inspiration

[@PaulShallPerish]

You should do an episode where you show basics that you do (warm ups, practices etc.) And just things people can do to increase speed and other tips.... crazy good shit overall Chris simply amazing!

[@jszekerj]

Sounds so sick Chris! It reminds me a little of the beginning of Miles of Machines by Jeff Loomis.

[@jordanmajel]

It really sounds beautifully. Paganini-like. Keep it up!

[@bakerXderek]

Cleaner than a rats gooty hole

[@SoundsUzed]

Sick man, really awesome!

[@illuminoid22]

That's a bad ass lick bro! Really cool!

[@xman52191]

[@marrag1]

[@thebluntandonly]

[@Elden_String]

is it possible to get the tab ? Amazing job from France haha ;), love this lick

[@jclp81]

that was insane

[@carlogreyling7200]

Great licks! Wait let me rephrase that, excellent licks! I know this is a long shot and I don't expect my request to get results but I would really enjoy it if Chris could maybe do a guitar cover of the songs we wrote like stuff from ASP or Smashface. So we could see how the pro's do shit around here

[@kruckus01]

nice bro

[@iamfullcontactfight]

O.O fucking awesome man,fuking awesome \m/ this lick is one of the most insane i heard

[@ykhi]

AWESOME

[@geoffreymiller9430]

This is insane... You're an amazing guitarist! Where did you learn your theory btw? Did you go to school for it?

[@iSeize]

wow dude. Do you think you could record these licks and post a soundcloud link along with each video? i loooove this lick.

[@ralphyetmore]

Odd meter shredding. Nice!

[@ShredReviews]

Very cool indeed! Damn.......

[@shredmastercomicsans679]

FUCKIN BADASS!

[@grifvonholst8050]

Still a baller

[@HamishMaguire]

If you ever need a vocalist/drum programmer for a project I am very much down for it. This riff would be awesome in a song. Such a good, technical but musical piece.

[@carlpowell0]

[@gunshijo]

[@an_38kitkashyap]

You definitely were influenced by Jason Becker weren't you?

[@JerrTheDisturbedOne]

Personally, I kind of like those out of tune moments. It gives it more of a circus style that I really like.
