[@bobjones2187]

I’ve been looking for a sound like this for years. I’m so glad I found this band

[@SilverXIIVI]

Polyphia is its own genre for sure haha

[@hansolzy]

Ok so i've heard every song once so far from the EP and I've got to say, this is a sound i've never heard before. It's hip hop instrumentals with the progressive technical guitar work that i grew to love playing scales and melodies from hip hop choruses. I'm really digging how bands are starting to branch out and experiment with different sounds such as this. Brings unique influences and potential all around. I'm going through a big shift in life right now and this EP will probably be my anthem to summer 2017. Thank you!!

[@Alex-kn5tr]

Hansol never heard before except for the chon album that came out a month earlier

[@theelfofwisdom]

I wish their guitar technique would be more varied. They have the same sound from album to album, I wish they would've picked up more metal technique from JR on the recent tour they were on. I'd like to hear more evolved guitar tones and techniques from them. THey're still some of the best technicians in the genre though!

[@StarShredder777]

Hansol it's probably because Ty Acord produced the album and he has a well established sound of his own in hip hop/ electronic, considering his contribution to Issues music is completely outstanding. He's perfect for Polyphia's latest vision of music. So glad they collaborated. Such talented dudes.

[@Crazelord91]

Some amazing guitarists sound like they're wrecking their guitars with monster shreds, Tim Henson make it sounds like he's making the smoothest love to it that anyone has dared to do.

[@samhhaincat2703]

Look up Michael Hedges--he does this for acoustic guitar. It's a shame he's super dead, but he was freaking amazing.

[@loganross2784]

I love that they make the hook easy to play so you notice it with its simplicity, while the "verses" are so unbelievably insane that you just overlook them because you know they're practically impossible to play. Try to bang them out and put the song at half speed. I bet you all the money I have that you'll give up in 10 minutes of just looking at the intro. Love you, Polyphia.

[@improvingguitarist1595]

An example of this is euphoria. The hook is fucking easy that you'd thought that you can play the song but it turns out you cant

[@TheFlamingChips]

Too true. I've settled with just learning a riff from each song I like. The intro to Goose, the riff in this song, Scott's outro riff in Icronic etc, So many nice riffs you can choose from, and they're essentially like learning a normal song each.

[@mathewgomez8104]

I’ve been playing guitar for about 13 years self taught and all. I recently discovered Polyphia. New levels new devils and some of these songs or most from this EP really represent what I’ve been wanting to do on guitar. Mixing beats and hip hop with advanced shredding techniques. I’m glad they made this, I’ll be working I what exactly they do to make my own versions. POLYPHIA IS NOW A GENRE!!!!

[@zeyy84]

You're right, Polyphia is a whole genre by itself. And yes I do believe that you'll achieve your dreams one day. Keep shredding man 👊

Honestly I think that inside the polyphia fanbase its kind of overrated:/ its just that Im tired of hearing it every time polyphia get mentioned. This song and goat are a perfect example for how good songs can become annoying when overplayed

[@lorenzomerigo2363]

Guys i think I listened to this song like 1 million times and played it by myself like 5 thousand, honestly for me this is THE song, it's just too beautiful, sometimes when i play the first verse of it i just get stuck in a loop and i could go on forever, IT'S JUST PERFECT, AND MAN THE ENDING PART GOES HARD AF.

[@PhobosMedia]

Every famous version of "Little Wing" got trapped deep in the earth under tons and tons of pressure for years and years, and crystallized into this absolute DIAMOND.

[@Quantum_Zebra]

[@ado011235]

exactly! I always think of Little Wing when I hear this

[@jleighwolfe]

Seeing you say this finally makes it make sense. I def hear it. And its prob why i so deeply love this song. Little wing (hendrix in the west version) is probably my favorite single recording of any song ever.

[@MikaTarkela]

That's it! I kept thinking this sounds familiar! 👌

[@rangamsarmah2061]

Everyone talks about how skilled these guys are, but a neglected part of their music is the simple feelings it can convey. From this song, I get the feeling of a person, who everybody hates for being different. But that person just doesnt give a fuck about others. He is living his life, he isnt bothering others. So be it.

I actually really dig the electronic implementation. Better than any of your previous releases in my humble opinion. Smart marketing move calling it The Most Hated in anticipation of previous fans getting all pissed off you stopped djenting. So long as you shred and keep it creative, I'm happy as a fan.

[@SammyMakepeace]

Kyle Bishop i agree but I don't think they'd djented for a while, just a thought
