[@lancepagel930]

Rest in Peace Ryan. You wrote my all time favorite intro. Rest easy friend.

[@dandortenzio6003]

This opening riff is massive

[@jakeasaurus0155]

Still one of my favourite 7 string riffs and also guitar playthroughs, both of them just make it look so flawless. RIP Ryan, such a massive loss 🖤💔

[@DouchebagDevastator]

Not sure who plays the lead guitar. Both are just so sick. Polaris needs way more attention. Just perfect tune.

[@Mattallica13526]

DouchebagDevastator definitely Ryan. But I know what you mean, what both of them are doing is crazy good!

[@oggel33t]

Both.

[@yorichixX]

Leady and rythm guitar--this concept doesn't apply to most modern prog metal! I mean the both aspects are intertwined into one! Idk if that makes sense! To put it in one sentence:- both guitarists are playing rythm and lead parts :/

[@michaelantonio2904]

Fucking agreed!!!

[@alhasanst7730]

modern metal doesnt require lead

[@bryang9398]

Rest in piece Ryan Siew!!

[@KeyanHoushmandLive]

this intro and the breakdown from Lucid are hands down the filthiest fucking things I’ve heard in my lifetime

[@johnny_b_dude]

Opening riff for this song sounds like heaven.... Breaks my heart to say this but RIP Ryan, hope your soul is at peace.

[@isaiahkolb3801]

it hurts me to listen to Polaris now. RIP Ryan

[@SoulOfDarkness77]

I get Holcomb vibes on this one! Awesome song guys keep being awesome!!

[@Kyle-hm7ee]

Feels more like a misha thing to me tbh especially after hearing remain indoors

[@JacobMartin]

Fuuck this is too good! Been waiting for this

[@jimmymartin9442]

Its missing a nerf gun though...

[@7empest907]

Rest in Peace Ryan ❤❤❤

[@aashuankittoppo1016]

Looks like there's a new mayones in the house. 😎👌🏻

[@MarkLePage]

Nope, it's just Ryan's old Duvell that he let's Rick borrow. Ryan did just get a new 6 string Regius though, and Rick has a 7 string Regius currently being built.

[@michaelantonio2904]

Dude legit one of the sickest band I've heard how everyone reacts to each other man. Hell yah goo job guys keep !!!

[@evanlusty1334]

This guitar composition is nothing short of a masterpiece!

[@ElMarcoHoJ]

Rest in Peace Ryan. We will love and miss you more than you could ever know.

[@user-sx5kx3pq2i]

I love the beginning guitar and drum on this

[@niksyimi]

[@buttermystutter5039]

THE GOD'S HAVE GIFTED US! Wowzers that looks fun af to play...

[@friesguy5467]

I fell in love with the guitars on this song immediately. That's really hot.

[@wai6886]

Check their guitars on their Dichotomy EP, surely will blow your mind. Different level with their recent stuff.

[@ByTheGrave]

The almighty gods have gifted us again.

[@bestboy897]

So fn good

[@abuventertainment2856]

This is the sickest band. I have to see them live.

[@anthonymonterosso7472]

They destroy!! Saw them open for PWD and they really got the crowd going. I'm honestly surprised all of us in the crowd that day even survived the whole show. The venue was 120° with no A/C and 4 bands lol one of the best nights of my life for sure!

[@merijn639]

❤

[@moritzunnerstall3992]

Ricks guitar is so fucking gorgeus. The shape, the finish, just everything

[@StasisCerb]

Very nice starting riff.

[@tylersaltmarsh9025]

Thought my jaw couldn’t drop any lower after the consume playthrough... I was wrong hahaha

[@Daniel-vu4qu]

This is so good boys! What tuning is this??

[@albarrette]

I'm not sure if I deserve that much epicness

[@riqnamarda5857]

Ryan💔💔

[@maideo]

I have a Regius 7M that I love so much! Its playability is absolutely superb plus it sounds amazing (BKP Aftermaths). It's the super car of electric guitars, along with the Duvell and Hydra series both being in the same category. Keep it up guys!!

[@turn8191]

Hi, do you have a baritone Regius 7? Or 25.5"?

[@maideo]

@@turn8191 Mine is 25.4".

[@turn8191]

@@maideo I also want to buy such a guitar model, but I don't know if it is suitable for low tunings (drop g/drop f#)

[@maideo]

@@turn8191 You will need a baritone for those tunings, because the lowest tuning you can go on a 25.4" (like 25.5") is Drop G# and any lower than that will sound muddy. So you can opt for either the 26.5", 27", or 28" baritone scale length, or you could also opt for the multi-scale version like the Regius VF BKP 7 (25.4" - 27") instead of baritone, if that's your thing.

[@maideo]

@@turn8191 And speaking of muddiness, it also depends on the kind of pickups, string gauges, tension, etc.

[@TheAntarcticaProject]

RIP Ryan

[@joshcannon7145]

RIP Ryan 😢

[@aprilwhite8402]

🥹❤️‍🔥🤟

[@TheMrcalamity]

What string gauges does ryen use on hes 25.5 scale?

[@lowdenlad8807]

Please do crooked path next

[@joshuaguerra1724]

Lowden Lad I wanna see a drum playthrough of that one as well!!

[@coreypower177]

drum play through of lucid would be sweeeeeet

[@eriatarka1983]

This is the best core band on earth right now. Period.

[@metisboyz]

What model of BKP is this??

[@squadronbeats2108]

What do you guys play through for processing? Does anyone on here know?

[@ItsMaaymz]

tabszzz?

[@br00talhonesty]

I really love the guitars in this song How many takes did it take u guys It’d be bad ass if both of u could do this in one shot Doubt i

[@W111P0w3r]

they play it live so they can definitely play it all in one shot

[@basebonkah8418]

They play their songs live perfectly, never heard them miss a note

[@TheCampbell254bme]

Crooked Path would be dope

[@benpark4035]

Fuck there is some nice wood in this video. Wish I could afford those venetian blinds

[@jadequilatan]

What scales do I need to learn to play like this

[@camdenwyeth316]

None! Just play a bunch and your ear will just hear this stuff in your head if that makes sense, most guitarists in this genre to my knowledge don't know anything about music theory and they're some of the best guitarists ever. I know for a fact Jesse from ERRA and Sam from Napoleon don't know anything about theory, but they're both my favorite 2 guitarists and write things like this if not more crazy

[@landonrankin3148]

All of em lmao

[@lrtf7754]

Chubby or not the dude rips. good shit guys

[@SOYUSE]

What BKP do they use?

[@skateordie280]

Is it possible to play this on a 6 string at all?

[@skyscodaofficial]

Is mayonnaise an instrument?? (Patrick's voice)

[@michaelrosato599]

skyscodaofficial lol, it's 'Mayones' and it's a guitar & bass manufacturer out of France or Austria or somewhere there. Top quality instruments.

[@skyscodaofficial]

Haha I know 😜. I was just making a Spongebob reference lol

[@Blurifying]

fucking hell

[@tylersaltmarsh9025]

Poland ;)

[@venku_u7644]

Could someone tell me a few tips for getting such tone. I mean, there is a lot of bass and still the highs ring well and it is very clean, not muddy at all at the same time. How tf

[@TheGod0fCookies]

This is just me, but I tend to crank the treble setting on my amp to at least like a 7, bass at a 4, mids usually also 7. I try not to use too much gain, because you don't want to oversaturate your tone, a noise gate helps, a lot. You can get a cheap one that does the job, I got little micro gate that does the job surprisingly well, cost me like £20. When playing this type of music you can dial the bass back a bit, because the low tuning takes up a lot of the lower end, you don't need to add it back. The mids help add a lot of clarity to your chords, and the treble adds a lot of what I refer to as "chonk" to the tone. I'm not sure what amp you have, but this is genrally what I go for on any amp, though it's just my personal preference, you can change it around as you please. That's how I tend to end up with a similar tone, I love playing this type of music. I know you posted this a while back, but I hope this helps a little. ;D

[@preston2636]

there's really no secret. they use 5150 amps with orange cab if I remember right. it's the pickups they use that give them the godlike tone. they use bare knuckle pickups

[@Robsguitarlovesmetal]

What scale lenght are you playing?

[@ryansiew1]

25.5" for me and 27" on the other guitar

[@FreakZado]

Ryan Siew what’s the tuning to regress?

[@jimsizzle5288]

Who the fuck dislike this.
