Motionless In White - "Reincarnate" Guitar Tutorial

[@NathanielBTM]

people complaining about the simple guitar. so what. this is a song that is supposed to sound heavy, to have an aggressive vibe. shredding and soloing will just change that feeling. nothing wrong with a slow and basic song. it still sounds beast, its not about the difficulty and skill. its about the sound and feel.

[@FNDR2400]

The people who complain how simple this is probably listen to stuff like Walk by Pantera and that's literally the same two riffs the entire time beside the solo. Now I'm ready to be crucified because I "disrespected the gods Pantera and Dimebag."

[@LuckerStompSince8412]

CJW2400 Haha, to love a band you can't be completely infatuated with them. Any person that likes bands, if they have something about them that they don't like, I honestly have much more respect for them.

[@RafeSanger]

Seven Nation Army. All you gotta say to people who dislike simple riffs

[@Runk3lsmcdougal]

Nathaniel Stuart To a person who hasnt played the guitar it isnt simple, anyone who says its simple better be able to play it

[@cloroxbleach3838]

Judging by your pic you're cute. Not being creepy or anything though xD

[@ashleymiw]

I like how while he's playing he starts getting into the rhythm. Like he starts head banging lightly and starts to smile. I don't blame him for liking his own music 👍😎💜💕

[@madisonaustin9394]

You can tell he loves music. He seems as if he breathes music.

[@matthewcormican2043]

He also started smiling because he messed up lol.

Fun fact: I have actually fallen asleep to his voice

[@xxmiahnightshadexx3121]

You can tell that Ricky is so happy doing what he does! Only because he's smiling, and that makes me happy seeing one of my favorite guitarists happy!

People complaining about how simple the guitar part is remember he plays rhythm guitar not lead

[@valleyoffire6900]

+Brianna Pabers Yea girl bc that lead guitarist is really tearing it up. all those sweeps in his solo... damn

[@valleyoffire6900]

***** I think I'm there lol

[@valleyoffire6900]

***** I know, i'm in a band... look up behold the juggernaut on youtube. I'm the vocalist and wrote the music with one of our guitarists.

[@triforceguitarist]

this is ridiculously simple. like, extrememly simple. i really don't understand how people fall for this so easily?

[@briankangguitar]

From what I see in live videos, Ricky generally plays more leads in the songs and solos (AMERICA and Underdog, although the latter is a dual solo with Ryan) more than Ryan. So although people say Ryan is lead, I would consider Ricky as more of the lead player of the two

[@devilposhxox6234]

What a beautiful little man.

[@mircearusu3788]

I love how the sound of the pick is louder than the actual amp

[@angelique1112]

so i showed this to my mom and she was interested (because she had seen ricky in some other videos before) and while watching she said: "wow, he's so beautiful!! It's nice to see that."

[@ellieshalldie]

Holly shit! You're so lucky. My mom hates all the MIW members. 😭

[@angelique1112]

+Elicorn biersack Yes indeed 😅 Before I showed her MiW for the first time, I did not expect that she would like that... I just wanted to know her opinion. But she liked the song and the video Reincarnate. So yeah, it's really cool 😄 Since then I've shown her some other videos, and yeah she totally falls for Ricky, that's crazy haha. You have my condolence. Actually there are lots of moms who hate MiW 😑.

[@Olivia-xp4dn]

+Angel Angelique my mom hates them to. I have a collage of Ricky as my background on my iPad and she says he looks scary, and I'm just over here like "what did you say about my adorable little Ricky?"

[@youngjaes]

Ugh, my mum hates them too. They were my phone backround too, well actually Devin, Chris and Ricky, and when she saw them she called them monsters😭😭😭😭

[@kaiju5929]

my mum hates miw and calles them satanic lmao

[@logrady98]

Well my right ear really enjoyed it.

[@musingsofmessa]

Liam O'Grady I can hear his strumming in my right headphone, and the actual guitar in my left headphone. Very weird... But still awesome. :)

[@NotSwefty]

It's not about how simple the riff is. It is about how you feel it whenever it is played.

[@pooppotato2074]

It doesn't matter how hard or easy it is or if his playing is simple. All that matters is if it sounds good.

[@amethystice_official]

That moment you and Ricky lock eyes at the same time. It gets me every time I watch this and we lock eyes at 1:33

[@AaronShirt]

I had to watch this 3 times. 1. because I couldn't focus on the song due to Ricky 2. because I noticed that fucking fly 3. to pay attention to the song finally and forced myself to ignore the fly and Ricky being awkward and shy

[@lubyricabt9639]

😂😂🤣

[@lucymain8441]

Lol true

[@byronbailey500]

Just because the song is simple it doesn't make him or the band untalented. They do have more complicated songs (not saying they're all that complicated) that are better in my opinion. I don't think a song should automatically be labeled as bad just because it's simple. Snuff (acoustic) by Slipknot is one of my favorite songs of all time but it's pretty simple.

[@DarkendSoulxXx]

Devin needs to do this. I really wanna play reincarnate on bass

[@dylmax66]

It is very very very similar to this...just on bass lol I learned how to play it when it first came out. Devin Sola was my inspiration to play bass.

[@SerjShower]

Maxi Frost Mine was Paul D'amour and Justin Chancellor... Basically both bassists of the band Tool. Look them up sometime, Schism by Tool has a really good bass line.

[@dylmax66]

SerjShower I like Tool and yes Schism is a fun bassline.

[@valleyoffire6900]

+DarkendSoulxXx Well good luck!! I bet that shit would be so fucking hard to learn... the internet couldn't handle the tabs for it

@@onekidneystan4330 He is good enough to be in a popular metal band and here you are saying you are probably "better." What a fucking joke.

[@triad5766]

Holly Skylar - You act like this is next level music. This is generic but I don’t think it’s bad, but don’t think it’s so difficult for people to be better than this Ricky fellow.

[@xanderdaqueer3420]

He’s so in his element when he’s playing, it’s fucking awesome. Love this song. Ricky just playing the guitar is also amazing. Can’t believe I saw them in concert.

[@lexishadow5652]

even if these seems pretty simple. its the fact that MIW layer so many other parts on top of each other and make it sound amazing

[@OmmyThestral]

Can somebody tell me what guitar is that? It's simply beautiful

[@twibbyvengeance6070]

.

[@leeem0]

Ignore what Twibby Vengeance said, it's bollocks. It's an Ibanez Roadcore, looks like an RC320 with matching headstock and minus a pickguard. Realistically, it'll be a one off custom for Ricky but the RC320 will be the closest production model you'll find. It's clearly a 6 string as well...

[@DaMenace30001]

Twibby Vengeance dude did you forget how to count? 9 string lol...

[@twibbyvengeance6070]

Well. Excuse the fucking shit out of me. Damn.

How much do I have to pay to get lessons from them..?These guys are fucking awesome in person and Ricky was cool enough to give me one of his picks to celebrate me n my girlfriend's one year and Chris gave her his setlist from the whole show (Beyond the Barricade).

[@MetalFreak18100]

So, basically you play the first riff throughout the whole song. Just slightly modifying it for the different sections. Skill!

[@JakeMoresea]

Don't forget that this is heavily influenced by Industrial Metal. I would go so far as to call this Industrial Metalcore. lol Industrial is notorious for its repetitive and simplistic structure.

[@williamhack9343]

Tell me about it, takes raw talent!

[@MrCrazedmaniac]

What were you expecting? Karl Sanders-esque technical death metal?

[@MetalFreak18100]

Something a little more along the lines of Creatures.It's like they're not even trying anymore..

[@JakeMoresea]

Cameron Andre And did you not read my comment? One of the biggest things that is the most despicable, to me, is that people confuse technicality with quality. You DO NOT have to be technical to make good music. It is extremely ignorant to think so.
