Such a underrated musician in the sea of endless guitar players one of few that still inspire me to play guitar

[@Keepler22b]

have to agree!

[@Ddmmiitry]

It's difficult to believe that Kirk Hammett is famous in the same universe in the same time

[@wolfofcalla7150]

@@Ddmmiitry Of course nobody thinks Hammet is as skilled, but everyone knows agrees he has created masterpieces with Metallica

[@Ddmmiitry]

@wolfofcalla7150 as far as i know any metallica masterpiece isn't written by Kirk

[@jamesnorton7601]

You don't have to knock someone down to build someone up. There's enough room for all of us in this musical universe. @@Ddmmiitry

[@Avisale]

Such a beautiful thing it would be to hear a death metal band led by Mattias.

[@MerenArkeen]

The intro riff sounds like Strapping Young Lad's "Love?" Then tapping goes to Joe satriani's "Midnight" vibe then goes to Mattias style👌 Mattias is a unique player!!

[@9manav]

I'll never forget the first time I heard Freak Kitchen as a kid and was blown away by the guitar work! What an absolute legend! 🙌🏼

[@scosstard3542]

From now on that's how I will picture a Viking with an axe!!!

[@flatland4185]

6:23 remembering the great master Stravinsky - Rite of Spring, it fit perfectly,

[@solidus4prez]

As always, the perfect mix of heavy, metrically complex, and catchy that really scratches my itch for cool music

[@krogwaugh]

Absolutely summarizes what I want to listen to!

[@thevorace]

After seeing Yogev's planet nine video it got stuck in my head. Such fun timings! Brilliant composition as always!

[@insightguitars]

Mattias keep being one of my favorite guitar players of all time, he is unpredictable and has a tremendous control over rhythm, playing phrases that are not common at all, bending time and never forgetting about being melodic. Such a great swedish talent, excellent musician!

[@vasotoe]

I still can't believe I was able to attend the camp again this year under the craziest circumstances 🤯 I had a blast and this piece will be an incredible reminder of that! 🤘🔥 Love it!

[@johnrobert385mm]

One of the most innovative player . Always has something on his sleeve to make our jaw dropped .

[@sergio.semenets]

I love this track for its contrasts, very clever piece! 🤘 Mattias is such a unique, wise and full of positive vibes person! Maybe this is a hymn of the planet where he was born, as I still can't believe that he was born on Earth!

[@gilgamesh2832]

Ay I remember this GUITAR FREAK... good to see you back m8.

[@teojorlen2646]

My love for the main chug-riff is still endless and relentless 🤘

[@CosmicSea-jb4nt]

Mathias you're a genius

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Instrumental Djent. This is cool! 🤘😩

[@rousimikki]

Ten points to Gryffindor!

[@Prog4Prog]

Ten points to riff-indor!

[@lucbgg]

Hi Mattias, I just discovered you a week ago, binge watched your vids and subscribed immediately. I was a self-taught teenage guitarist, with no theoric background whatsoever. Your work makes me want to explore a bit more what I never did 35 years ago... Thanks for your music and communicative happiness. Have a nice day, and greetings from Belgium.

[@alessandrovargasgtr]

I love you Mattias! I cry with joy every time I hear it, "flummoxed"!!! Your music is like a portal, thank you very much🙏

[@mymodel6]

Then you need some help, it's just music dude...

[@joshcline8764]

Sooooo good.

[@CheloWiiU]

Mattias is amazing, and also a very happy and insipiring person

[@Castlevi3w]

Dude plays so intensely he's bent all the frets.

[@umitanonymous3400]

What is Legendary than being a genius, creative Guitar Virtuose Musician is that also having a sincere, sympathic smile while playin' 😉🙂

[@juliencabanac5406]

I listen to Mattias since 1998. Saw him in Montpellier with FK. Simply inspiring... An incredible man and guitarist.

[@coreydishmon]

Good grief. When that 6:25 section kicks in the head just starts banging. Automatically was hearing Devin Townsend stuff then goes full blast Alan Holdsworth Mattias madness. Mattias you keep blowing my mind with your musical genius.

[@DanieltheBlade]

Within 11 seconds, my foot started tapping and my head started bobbing. Fantastic work, as usual!

[@marcelogaea1064]

If this isn’t sonic tapestry, don’t know what is. A pleasure to hear (and attempt to learn). Thanks, IA!

[@rochameleon0003]

Matthias's 8-string guitar has evolved! The appearance of his partner is painted, adding a touch of Matthias! wonderful.

[@rudyk5645]

That part at 8:55 makes me feel like I'm floating in a sea of clouds, maybe planet nine is surrounded by clouds

[@Jarkendia]

Awesome and inspiring, as always!! So lucky to see you in Madrid a few years ago🤘😁🤘

[@kennyfoster655]

Such an amazing and unique style... his right hand picking technique is very unusual, looks like he mainly holds the plectrum between thumb and middle finger... outstanding... the odd rhythms are refreshing to my ears... bravo.

[@titicaca5510]

Hope one Day Mathias Will release one lp...Ill surely buy it and play it loud in order to allow neighbours to enjoy it

[@PistolsPlayground]

Been a fan of Mattias since I first found out about him in Guitar Player magazine in 1999. He was such a interesting musician, even back then. It's been refreshing to see the way he's evolved as a player and how he's expanded his musical vocabulary while maintaining that unique singular voice on the guitar. One of the few players that continues to keep me interested, and inspired.

[@mattias_ia_eklundh]

Thank you! ❤️🙏

[@PistolsPlayground]

@@mattias_ia_eklundh Thank you for 25 years of inspiring playing.

[@jdodgebagpiper8036]

I feel like I’m going to have a seizure trying to headbangers to this, but I can’t effing stop! Loving it! As a musician I appreciate all the “ear candy”. Certainly won’t suffer from musical scurvy listening to this! Would love to see a collab with Animals as leaders… :)

[@scottenosh4548]

I love the tone of that guitar. It has a very...physically SOLID....tone.

[@baseproject4781]

Сегодня быть оригинальным очень сложно. Но у тебя это получается. Благодарю за то что ты делаешь 🤘

[@charlyah4309]

Always great music from the Freak Guitar Camp

[@rainoriikonen3777]

Genius in creating... All these years.. Master 😊😊😊 no one is like you matte eklund

[@BurntSquirrel]

OK now I want one of those guitars...Effortless and brilliant guitar playing!

[@jeremiahshipley401]

These videos are so badass its unreal

[@PirminZemp2731]

Awesome Guitar Playing

[@zackhalilovic4753]

Some of the trippiest guitar work I’ve ever heard, and this is coming from someone who’s listened to Zappa, tech death, etc. and I can’t help but enjoy it!

[@m3m3dealer]

He is the type of guy that I’ll love to have a jam and 10 beers with! ❤

[@okgo5152]

Yeah man!! Summer real fresh shit.. there's hope out there for guitarists who need inspiration since Eddie's been gone

[@richardjames1751]

I subbed like right away

[@dolinofolde]

Just saw Tosin Abasi do this last week! I did not see that coming. Very nice but at the same time.... You bastard. The HEAVY RIFF.... is a way of feeeeeelllliiin. The HEAVY RIFFFFF is a way of feeeeelllliiinnn GIVE IT TO ME!! Hahah

[@robp775]

Thank you. Always appreciated.

[@gravfielddrive]

Once again, incredibly new and dynamic, yet elemental and ancient, in the sense of the cosmic dance itself. Thank you for giving voice to that which is. Very awesome! Resonates with the electrogravetic clockwork of the everything.

[@alessandroienaro_yt]

OMG!!!! It's been an honour ti see this and other crazy tunes this year at the Camp.UNFORGETTABLE!!!!

[@johnivan-guitarslinger]

That's how you create music when you love whatcha going. Absolutely great as always, Man 👍🤘🌞

[@user-mi7ek7lv4t]

maestro!!!!

[@eudesfrancogt]

Now that is a lovely piece to listen to at the start of spring here in Brazil. Mattias is probably the most interesting guitarist out there.

[@paulwhite7125]

Dude your amazing.

[@CJBlake-rf7mv]

Respect! you spearheaded this style long before todays generation of greatness like Polyphia.

[@lyricbread]

This is so damn good. ❤

[@brentos5001]

Such a mesmerising and creative piece. Love the 8 string Mattias

[@olasod1]

This is the best piece of music Ive ever heard. Im 55, play guitar at same level as Ia, when he was aprox 10. Even if I domt have the skills to understand this music I go back and back and back, just to find moments like this. Great job Ia 👍🏼🤘🏻🙏

[@blekkmark]

When you see that smile you know you are in for a wild ride :)

[@willschut4917]

Yup, frantic, unsetteling and beautiful at the same time, that's IA up to his usual antics..... Love it!!!

[@trialbyicecream]

Yogev filmed it! What a great guy! He got me into Alon Tamir recently.

[@gallo9]

Bravo Brother Mattias !!! so brave ..so innovative ..such beautiful powerful music !!!!!!!

[@RiquezaEmGotas]

This is amazing, it has complex rhythms, incredible djent and a interesting melody mixed up in the middle of the craziness.

[@ОдинТри-з8и]

In my opinion, there are two guitar geniuses - Greg Howe and Mattias Bernt Johannes Eklundh. Both are infinitely good, each in their own way.

[@LeoPerantoni]

Absolutely love the rite of spring quotes!

[@mattias_ia_eklundh]

Igor FTW!

[@norlo6723]

Great Mattias! Beautiful vibe. You deserve you're place in the guitar history.

[@latheofheaven1017]

Wow. Listening to that was like drinking a couple of delicious espresso coffees. Mind properly woken up, pulse elevated. Endorphins doing their thing. Thank you, Mattias.

[@GuitarSoloReactions]

Love it and a killer piece of music. One of the most unique players out there.

[@beyonder8551]

Great musician, inspiration and humour 👍

[@mattvonclark3378]

Extraordinary. Thank you Mattias.

[@cuzaosagado1]

Great!

[@Metabulation]

You are truly the world's most mischievous guitar player! Loved it :D

[@tudgedelta]

More IA, less AI in my feed! Great composition and performance. You've got me pumped to play!

[@Mike_Isakov]

A real entertainer. Smiles all the time)😂

[@aequanimus63247]

Damn. That rite of spring part hit so hard. Killer!

[@mattias_ia_eklundh]

It's tremendously satisfying to riff. Igor knew his way around sneaky accentuation. 👍

[@timotharcher]

That one Viking to rule them all... Hats off Mr Mattias!

[@GiuseppeNegri95]

Stellar performance and stellar song as always, never ceaze to amaze me and other fans, fantastic!

[@Zhaggysfaction]

Ah a little Stravinsky's RIte of Spring hidden in there, I see. Very nice.

[@jeremyy22]

Love the rite of spring references in this! You are always amazing!

[@MarcoBasile_MarkBasile]

GENIUS :D

HOOOOOLY GUACAMOOOOOOOLYYY that is awesome!

12:50: This part gives me chills. Well done sir!

[@Malkamok]

Such a jolly shredder 😂❤ Great work!

[@bassvibasics479]

It's a delight to see someone enjoy their work so much. Fantastic!

[@DrAntronic]

What a riff! Will have to mop my face off the floor later. Reminds me alot of Strapping Young Lad´s "Love?".

[@madaxemanable]

Groovy & Freaky..👍👍😃🎶🎸🥁

[@birandemiroglu]

This dude inspired me for all the off-beat stuff. Such an amazing icon with most humble personality ever. Swedish god.

[@user-bl3si3kq6x]

Greatest of all time. A life saving musician.

[@SametYucelMusic]

MUHTEŞEM AF

[@achaarpickler]

For those love Mattias and his work, please check out his album with Jonas Hellborg (played with the late great Shawn Lane) and Ranjit Barot called The Jazz Raj. Brilliant album. Of course there’s enough of Mattias’s own solo work to enjoy…..

[@sammydaboul6781]

Helloooooo IA, I miss you :D What a pain in the ass to play but we all enjoyed it!!

[@Multi7on]

this is good, this is very very ... good!

[@Freakangel0000]

You are walking in a desert area. Two days without eating or drinking. Night falls and fatigue overwhelms you but you know that you have to keep moving forward, there may be a city on the horizon! oh yes, lights in the distance but it moves quickly, too quickly....... a circle, a circle in the sky, a bright light almost burning, a night sun. "Make an initiative roll" !

[@babisnuffking7490]

Super cool groves are here！！ This is Keiichi!!

[@noslang5539]

Excellent ! Love it

[@ricardocivil515]

so much for 4/4 haha almost bamboozled me into believing that there was no insane chug of rhythm coming

[@entrenamientoexclusivosder3332]

F@£$% amazing

[@dieselpower66.6]

syl - love

[@brrblack497]

I am not a good enough musician to understand any of this, but it sure does get me inspired!

Mattias you perfect guy😀😀 I remember musikmesse frankfurt when you showed me the trick with the 100 guitarpics tone with your comb😀😀you are soo great👍👍👍
