Richie Faulkner playing Painkiller 🤘🏼

Every Thursday he do livestreams for his Instagram followers.

[@davidknichal6629]

This song and doctors saved Richie's life

[@j_freed]

Almost cost him, I think he refused to stop playing until he finished and they had to carry him off! 🚑 🏥

[@BAND-MAID-USA]

Glen Tipton wrote some of the most insane solos in music history. And like 3 or 4 solos per song lol.

[@50-Fifty-Vintage]

Truly one of the most inventive solos ever played, IMO. I mean, EVH didn't even play anything this crazy and dissonant, but somehow really melodic at the same time. Just super aggressive playing... I remember when this album first hit shelves... everyone I knew was blown away by this song.

[@thesentinel5523]

It's amazing that Painkiller and Fight Fire With Fire sound that good on that guitar.

[@marvintimke3978]

I don't know, how anyone would be surprised, by how good any songs on that guitar sounds?

[@TheAndostro]

Richie use EMG picks (i think 70 set) and Metalica also use EMG pickups (85/81 and 81/60) so sound can be similar. but let's be fair such a great player like Richie can make anything sounds great

Get well soon Ritchie!! Salute from Italy 👋👋🇮🇹

[@jefft787]

This is unbelievable! Richie is a very talented individual! Been a Priest fan since seeing them on the Point Of Entry tour.

[@Chris-s6x1f]

Glenn Tipton is truly a guitar legend and Ritchie Faulkner his just as good been watching a lot of his videos hope I play that good one day

[@Mudder1310]

Just saw Priest the other night and Richie was outstanding. Just a great player.

[@user-zk5hq6of5b]

Richie is my favorite guitarist that actuality inspired me to play guitar too.

[@get1rocstartim5]

Ripping as he looks through your soul.

[@Guitarristaadministrador]

Sounds exactly like the album, I can listen everyday this 😦

Get well Richie. Love you!!! 💕

Richie, love your playing, you have a great talent!!! Get Well Soon!!!

[@riconaka]

Richie is one badass guitar player! HUGE asset to Priest!

[@brianscott7955]

Bad ass guitar player, saw him up close in Charlotte last year, killed it all night long

[@UnderWorldOfDarkness]

More like Richie Faulkner staring at the camera.

[@DarrenPrice333]

One of the best solos ever 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@josephkony3993]

this man's hair is absolutely angelic

[@skinnyangh8589]

For me, It's one of the most challenging hardest and the most technical solos in metal history. Till date i haven't seen somebody playing it to perfection and j too both kk and co do does injustice to their perfect creation( solos), but again, I too am learning.

[@jamesstacks4451]

Awesome guitarist's Richie Faulkner!!!!!😄😄😄😄😄

[@triximetal-cat3348]

Hey "Richie"! Super guitar-player, Nice Flying V., and "Painkiller", yeah, 🙌💕🎶! Real HEAVY METAL -Power! 🎸I like it loud.... 😸 "Trixi"(Metal-Cat) /Germany.

[@parsaershadmanesh3767]

What a heavy chorus

[@alisablount2779]

Amazing

[@theripper37]

Glenn: worry not, your heritage is there! Richie is such a good guitarist!

[@zeekmx1970]

I think the best thing on the album was the short neo classical solo before all guns blazing. The kind Tobias Forge would find interesting. If anyone wants a dose of what that could be like, it can be felt in the blitz of lightening solo by Accept on the faceless world album.

[@arvindshastry1178]

Get well soon Richie

[@sabinefuhler8375]

Absolut geil.....

[@markokruc2993]

Since joining Priest Ritchie got fond of blow for sure. But still amazing player!

Utterly enjoyable!

[@nazario6664]

Never eat KK & Glenn but it's a big one, thanks Richie, from México

[@Frip36]

What do you mean? Do most Mexicans eat Glenn & KK? Is that like a traditional dish over there? "Waiter I'll have the Glenn & KK with a side of guacamole." "Guacamole senor?" "Yeah, I like to dip my KK in guac."

Thats a great guitar player freakin excellent

[@eddybouh2079]

I'm really not a priest fan but this dude is a killer

[@jibicusmaximus4827]

was thinking the same, quite simple parts but he is tight af, that is no mean feat.

[@jibicusmaximus4827]

i wrote that before he was ripping solos lol but my point is that relative simplicity is a part of the style, personally i prefer, older styles with less notes, it has more space and is more affecting.

[@nusantarasatu7613]

It's funny expression on his face making fault at 2,18

[@LuisMarSan]

He is like "just another Tuesday"

[@rainerihnen7920]

Ich konnte mir KK Downing von Priest niemals wegdenken, aber sie haben mit Falkner einen guten Ersatz gefunden, einen sehr guten!! Er beherrscht sein Instrument und hat Wahnsinnige Power und Freude am Spiel!! Kompliment an die Band!!

[@albertvillarreal7422]

That was badass

[@Shads62]

first time I have seen you sweep picking ;)

[@Capitan_Chaos]

I remember when I requested a Dio song and he played it.

Glenn wrote all this shit..hail Tipton..

[@richardfrost783]

Hes playing left handed. Ambidextrous. Rare.

[@allknight7905]

There's guitar players and there's guitarist .. I knew 10 years ago Richie Faulkner was going to be famous .

[@re8746]

First time seeing JP was on the Turbo tour in Austin. Dokken opened.

[@rivokikkul1789]

Painkiller solo is really obscure.

[@johnnymoraes23]

Yes... some runs where a little bit improvised, like that chromatic run that Glen does, right before the tapping part. Also, the tone, with chorus, delay and distortion, helps it to sound huge on record. Like the arpeggio minor thriad section in the beggining, it sounds harder and faster than it actually is.

[@joshuab.7111]

Ok! Great! That was much better, Richie. The director was wondering if you could make a little more eye contact during the next take.

[@tambor76]

What was he going in to when the video ends? Almost sounded like vh unchained but not quite.

Isn’t Richie right handed? Me thinks this has been mirrored!
