Those little "omega low tune guitar" traks are always incredible and i just love to find those special tracks in a new release of polyphia. they are quite rare and exceptional but damn it had so much chunk and power to it. i have been so much impressed when listening the album at the firts low notes of Chimera and Bloodbath cause i knew what it was about! and damn i love those two songs! So much love to you guys, RTYWD is a classic

[@prodbylucifer]

they keep getting better and better, i'm scared

[@notmiscares3918]

The shredding guitars are one hell of a thing for sure, but that MASSIVE Bass and its presence in the mix take this song to an upper level for me, alongisde the godly drums, very rhytmical

[@landonsmith3708]

This absolutely SLAPPED. Every single note Scottie played was absolutely disgusting in the best way possible. Not a huge fan of featuring rap but it wasn't bad at all. As far as the instrumentals... simply blown away. Would love to see more of this heaviness!

[@gezi0752]

no offense, but i think featuring rap makes their songs fuller and more cohesive, their songs are already structured how hip hop beats are, it seemed natural. I just think this style of rapping doesn’t fit it, i feel like more agressive rappers would fit nicer

[@6sentient]

Monumental album. They are doing what nu tried to do in 00s and many shredders in 10s failed miserably - to bring instrumentals to masses. Unique composing style that works brilliantly.

Polyphia, not only making Guitars relevant again but re-inventing the art of shredding.

[@holliswilliams8426]

I'm confused about what in what they do is re-invention, most of it is either djent or sounds very flamenco based.

[@project_mray]

@@holliswilliams8426 You could argue the same for early shredders, that they just combined Neo-classical elements into Rock and started playing faster. I'm just happy that Polyphia 'shreds' in a genre fluid manner without focusing too much on labels and their norms.

@@manuelsaenz6424 didnt realize it was an 8 string. figured probably 7 string. but it sounds similar to look but dont touch so youre probably right

[@manuelsaenz6424]

@@theenlightenedone5429 Yes, the first electric guitar notes sounds very low. But also, in one video, I guess Abc solo from Scottie, he has like four guitars on the wall: the gold top one, the seven strings that appear in Ego Death, and also an 8 string, so I suppoused that they will present a video with an 8 string guitar, and this is the closest one. It's a great opportunity for them and Ibanez to promote this kind of guitars, haha. I never thought I would like to have a 7 or 8 string until I hear and want to play this songs.

[@AlexandrBorschchev]

So glad I listened to these guys back when they were still not as big. 30 years from now, polyphia's playstyle will influence the next generation just like Vai, Hendrix, EVH, and many other legends did. I cannot fathom what instrumental guitar would be like in the future, 200 years from now this will be considered ancient which to me is fricking crazy. Marcin, Ichika, Jason, Tim, Manuel, Plini are all millenials! Can't wait to see what the next generation of young virtuosos will sound like!

It's not that no one notices...they often add such kind of solos in almost every tracks ... Guys like me and those who are bit interested in guitars will surely notice that ...

[@garretthaskett6384]

People are just upset that it's something they don't like and refuse to see anything beyond that. Personally I think it's a big step up from the vocals at the end of 'look but don't touch'.

As a old...er person from the old school who was worriedd about the future of music, I don't have to worry anymore. This band is beyond extaordinary. There is so many good things about it. The drummer, the guitars, the bass, the sound. the back and forth. It's like watching a great battle on a movie screen. It's been a while since I've seen this in music. Just outstanding artistry these young men.
