Polaris - NIGHTMARE [Guitar Playthrough]

[@jm_hav]

Rick absolutely nailed this. But damn, it makes you miss seeing Ryan absolutely jamming next to him on one of these. RIP Ryan

[@Malice_G]

Imagine not nailing your own song

[@donk2427]

It can happen. I have written songs far beyond my caliber that I struggled with for a long while before I could nail it perfectly in a take. Even then lol, sketchy at times.

@@Malice_G it's a playthrough... mimicking, not live

[@crackpiipe]

So tight, so good. RIP Ryan.

[@moonwracker]

Seeing Rick sitting there alone in the thumbnail kinda broke my heart again :(

[@TammyRiffs]

Straight fire 🔥 Rick always brings the goods but it's heartbreaking not seeing Ryan beside you. Miss you buddy 💔

This guy makes metalcore alive again

[@DylanODonnell]

RIIIIIICK. Absolutely killing it. Love this song. Love the new signature too. RIP Ryan, lead king.

[@mattfury.]

Cut me deep to not be able to see Ryan play his leads. Stunning playthrough though and love the tabs down below!

[@matthogan9091]

Thank you for all that you do, Rick and Polaris.

[@slyy2872]

While I am sad you lost a brother, i believe in Polaris and also believe the future is bright for you all. All of you have a gift. I love your music. Keep It Rocking.

[@dPokey]

miss seeing you and ryan shred these out. were my favourite videos you guys did. rip

[@ThatGuyWhoKnowsAGuy]

Damn. Those taps are just heavenly. Rest easy Ryan.

[@ThatGuyWhoKnowsAGuy]

Watched this again now. Those taps are still immaculate.

[@mojoe599]

I love playthroughs so much because you see so much more technicality, more precision in the writing I get to appreciate. Thank you!

[@catchphase]

I am absolutely loving the fact that you're putting the tabs out so publicly available. That's one of the things that held me back so much when I was trying to learn instruments early on. I would listen to a song, want to learn how to play it, and I could never find it accurately transcribed... but if the artists themselves put it out, you know it's going to be on point (now we just need some drum tabs). Thank you for the amazing music!

[@christianmunch7160]

Great player, great guitar, great song, everything great! Thanks for on screen tabs 🤝

[@ojka._.]

Incredible riffs, awesome performance and one of the best songs ever composed!

[@naupranata]

Playthrough with tab?! what a legend

[@insertname8999]

saw you guys last september and seeing you again next week. tears will be shed again

[@pramusetyakanca1552]

To this day those taps make me tear up. Rest in peace, Ryan. And godspeed to the rest of Polaris, you beautiful bastards

[@sombal1999]

A year has passed and I still can't get over how good 0:57 is ...

[@gmanolicious]

Keep it going!!!! Fantastic.

[@merijn639]

Absolute legends for putting the tabs under this🙏🙏

[@kyegaming3193]

Those chorus arpeggios get me every time

[@BloodandSoilNS]

To play such technical music and having it all come together and having it still sound dope is no easy task, especially live. But Polaris nails it and never fails to impress. Fucking love this band!

[@gmanolicious]

Rick, you straight up crush it, sooooo good!

[@gmanolicious]

As a guitar player you really inspire me.

[@SpendUser]

these parts are just amazingly good, so tight and dynamic. gyus.. just wow.. fucking love the whole fatalism album and all that you do ❤

[@kibatsu]

Thank you for the tabs and brilliant playing, bro! ❤

[@davej.4989]

This song makes me both happy and sad. RIP Ryan. Amazing job, Rick.

[@spencerdavis6633]

Hearing Ryan's guitar in the background gives me chills. RIP to a legend ❤️

[@scrooge201]

I fucking love this band

[@temporary9830]

I can feel Ryan is also there too in this playthrough. Love Polaris

[@elfinke]

Fantastic, and you slayed this in Coffs and Tamworth, an absolute treat seeing it live from just meters away. 👊👊

[@Ravenguitar79]

Rick absolutely killed it as usual. This album has been on repeat everyday 🔥🔥

[@Mp3Robbo]

Bruh who did the note visualisation thing? Sick af

[@Felhuanquel]

R.i.P Ryan, it’s hard to see you without him on a playthrough 🥺.

[@jennahwhelan2551]

I have imagined Ryan shredding this tune since it came out. This vid honestly makes me cry 😢😢😢 Fuck we miss you Ryan!! Sending my love to everyone in the band !!!

[@ryanmcgowan8185]

Nothing will ever bring him back. We miss you Ryan 😔

[@LifeofSharp]

so i've got to see polaris years back in the Netherlands when they just released the mortal coil. they were a small band touring with we came as romans, a plot in you, alazka and others. wcar should be the "main act" and they were incredible.. but Polaris got my attention. the whole album is a masterpiece and from that day i couldn't stop listening. i am going to see them soon again in march but this time it will be different because there is no Ryan on the leads. man, i miss him so much. he was a main part for his unique playing and solo's. can't wait to see them again after all those years, but knowing Ryan won't be there gives me an empty feeling. RIP Ryan. that show will be for you!

[@TheAlex4019]

Hi mate, I saw Polaris 2 times with Ryan and once in September without him, that's was so sad but as the same time life goes on and that's beautiful. When I saw them last time it was with the guitarist of Windwaker and he was ripping those riffs 👌

[@LifeofSharp]

@@TheAlex4019 thank you for the respond! Glad to hear that your second show had a solid guitarist to back him up! I am looking forward to the show aswel, but i felt like Polaris is nothing without him but your respond gave me hope! Thanks a lot!

[@SeanClancy-gs1qn]

Please release the instrumental version of this entire album!

[@adamcogan211]

Rest in peace Ryan! ❤ The riffs in this song are unbelievable!

[@toffl766]

Awesome!

[@adrianlowther]

We all know that Ryan is looking down and is just so proud to watch Rick absolutely annihilate this playthrough 🤘🙌

[@tylerm8145]

Hey, beautiful Tyranitar bud! I suppose I should also mention phenomenal playing.

[@dirun04]

Great play ❤❤

[@TirrinShows]

Beautiful guitar bro. You ripped it 🔥

[@ruinofspace]

*POWERFUL*

[@codyb6849]

Rick, you’ve did an awesome job on this I believe you have made Ryan proud looking down on you I know we all miss him but I know you guys are carrying on his legacy because I’m a huge fan of the band and you guys an fatalism was my metalcore album of the year fantastic fellas

[@chameleond9485]

Heat as always Rick

[@DudeMaybeSomeday]

Hell yes!

[@LostInBetweenOfficial]

Hell yeah, that’s so sick 🔥 Love for Ryan ❤

[@drivabletoaster417]

Great job dude! Lovely guitar too

[@gregoriocarreno]

Amazing

[@itwasagoodday4556]

my first experience in listening to Polaris songs was when the announcement that Ryan joined Polaris (the video when Rick still using his "fakemachine" guitar) and now I see that Polaris has become a successful band. RIP Ryan.

[@peterc1702]

Crushed it!

[@alleycatdevil]

Those triplets in the breakdown broooo

[@NicolasMln]

Is there an instrumental version of fatalism planned ?

[@itsmemoto6441]

One of the best openings ever

[@enhasa5653]

I really got some DOOM vibes off this one. Banger.

[@MNmetalhead]

So fucking sick! Hope you guys drop the instrumental because these riffs are so great! RIP Ryan, it would have been amazing to see you both dual this play-through.

[@Reaper7mk]

Dissipate would be nice to hear instrumental as well.

[@RivaldyGeKomara]

1:35 my favorite❤

[@LordKD_CH]

Ayooo this was a nice surprise

[@the_mcleod_axe]

It seems so simple, but the manic run from 2:52 - 3:06 and the following breakdown to 3:30 is one of my favorite song sections of all time, of any song. The fact they pull off so much energy and aggression without any tritone chords or any bottom string usage is a testament to how well these guys craft their riffs. It just feels so right that the song abruptly turns into a drop C face melter supplemented with dissonant suspension chords to champion all of the downtuned chuggy riffs that lie before it. Goddamnn. Ryan's writing influence will never be lost on me. What a legend. But I can't wait to see what Rick comes up with in the future, I'm not oblivious to the fact he is just as much of an asset to the band.

[@matiasvidal9213]

RIP Ryan

[@solofighter4562]

I miss Ryan playing together with u❤

[@benmartin8015]

Anytime I watch this I have to watch 3:12 at least 5 times

[@peterb4143]

So lucky to finally see yall live few months ago. Really made an impact hearing and singing along to these amazing songs that keep me going. I hope we all can keep you going as well

[@RafaelOliveiraBR]

Killer tone. Great performance. Beautiful song. RIP Ryan.

[@symect3052]

Hell yeah! Thank you so much for uploading this with tabs 🫶

[@Darrowyn]

You guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite bands. Please release an instrumental version of Fatalism! You guys are awesome. RIP Ryan
