[@miscusername]

You're using the fleshy part of the hand to find an artificial harmonic, like if you play a note and tap a harmonic. Pinch harmonics like these ones are created by following through after picking and connecting the edge of the thumb with the freshly picked string. It usually results in a higher register harmonic than you'd get with the artificial type mentioned above. If that makes sense.....

Aloha bud! I think it might be worth it to check out some Machinehead- specifically from either The Blackening or Unto the Locust- which are by my money, their two best albums.

I would be ecstatic if you could check out either 1) some newer stuff by Dir En Grey, or 2) anything by a band called Moonsorrow.

[@GimmeJimmy23]

Geebs, you are killing me, man! Not only are your comments gold, your questions are, too! I love that you say you know enough guitar to be dangerous, that totally sounds like an audio engineer comment to make. (I am an audio engineer and guitar player of 3 decades.) I happen to have a friend who I'm not kidding, is named Thor, who taught me, what I would consider to be the one right way to do "pinched harmonics." You figure out where all of the harmonic nodes are, in whatever way is comfortable to you. You can just run your hand up and down the fretboard while picking, or you can do so-called touch harmonics to find all of the spots.... Once you know the spots, the most exact way to coax them out of your instrument is to espouse a very specific technique with your picking hand. Hold pic firmly between them and forefinger, and, on the downstroke, you brush somewhere around the first joint of your thumb knuckle against the string in question at literally the same moment that you pick the string. Practice moving your picking hand up and down the length of each string to find the nodes that you earlier discovered. There are nodes across the fretboard and nodes that extend beyond the fretboard. You can use the nodes that extend beyond the fretboard to modify what you're playing on the fretboard.... I know this is needlessly long, but please know that I am one of your best fans. I haven't yet expressed that with a cup of coffee, but I promise to do that in the near future, and now that I know that you're doing lyrical breakdowns on patreon, I plan to foray into that. I love your content. You have inspired me to keep doing what I love when I'm not at work, doing my day job, which isn't music related, of course... As long as you care to keep putting these videos out, I will watch them! Also, when I say "one right way," I mean for me, not everyone. I struggled with learning this technique for almost a year, so please know I'm coming from a very humble place when I tell you these things. Also, learning this technique has been an instrumental part of me becoming a better player, and definitely a more nuanced player, so, as someone who loves your content, I just felt the need to chime in. Be well, and I can't wait to see you next video! (Just for your own market research purposes, I came here from tool, but love korn, too!)

[@garysayers9476]

Love the channel. To get the pinch harmonic, most people including myself, when picking the string just dig in a little more and touch the string straight after with your thumb just above the pick. The pitch changes depending on where on the length of the string you pick. I hope that makes sense lol.

[@ryangross714]

Yep, I just shift my thumb down towards the pick point slightly and pick straight through. Sounds like they're getting one that would be notated or in tablature, so either just slightly above the bridge pup or a little higher toward the neck

About the jazz-metal thing; going to parties with musicians you’ll see metalheads by themselves, the pop and rnb folks won’t really mingle. The same goes for jazzers, they’ll be sitting by themselves and no one wants to talk (it’s gonna get all technical and who wants that). Then the jazzers see the metalheads, at first a bit put off by the tattoos, beards and attitude…the metalheads a bit put off by the fact that the jazzers aren’t pissed and have had a shave, and nice pants, then they’ll sit down and talk measures and tempo, times and syncopations for hours.

[@DrOnline123]

quickly becoming my favorite reaction channel. How about some more Metallica? Something like Orion would be great. :)

[@mattf4622]

Lovin your channel!!! Seems like you do some of the more popular slipknot songs…which is cool. If you wanna get off the beaten path…2 songs… 1. Gently 2. The shape The shape makes me wanna run thru a wall!!! Keep up the good work my man!

[@LordSplittawig]

Slipknot is so heavy, they need multiple drummers, including a percussionist and a concussionist. 😁

[@jessicashenefield1546]

Did the wielding of the bat constitute the concussionist? Lol

[@callmewaves1160]

@@jessicashenefield1546 yeah, if they don't hit the empty beer keg at the right angle it just might be 🤣

[@badomen8779]

For the pinch harmonics you you use the bottom of your dominant picking thumb to create the sound then use the other hand to accentuate the inflections. I love your knowledge of music! Keep rocking and jamming everything from progressive rock to metal. I've been a musician for over 25 years and wanted to be a composer younger in life and love your content. Keep rockin' and putting out the facts! Information and practice are key.

"selkies" by between the buried and me. Geebz...trust me.

[@Danpool13]

I was thinking Extremophile elite, but Selkies is a solid choice as well.

He'd trip over the outro(edit) and what they worked into that. 😂

[@johnepps6082]

Yes!! BTBM is a great rabbit hole to go down!

[@taylordelgado7919]

No no, Swim to the Moon. I want that 40 min video

[@MortalDeathGaming]

the pinch harmonic technique used by these bands are typically playing a band with the left hand like normal but the right hand has the plectrum close between finger and thumb and get that harmonic sound

Do "from the sky" by Protest the Hero

[@mtgguiltfeeder4111]

I’m almost disappointed you didn’t notice the beer keg being smacked by a baseball bat throughout. One of the coolest songs to see live, and bands really. Nine members all doing different things, somehow synchronized into a sort of controlled chaos that is unbelievably powerful to witness. Check out “Prosthetics” next for a bit of their earlier, darker side... 🤘🤙

[@tonybass_6802]

The next time you need to do Headup by Deftones I beg you! It give me goosbumbs it's amazing, BTW you are awesome

[@apairofpetducks6203]

I love Love LOVE Deftones but will 100% skip that track every time. Please any other song, but def hit up Deftones some more!

Bro, your comments at the end are everything. 🙏

[@dustynmofos]

You'll definitely like "Left Behind" off their album "Iowa". Still one of the best tracks they ever made.

[@tatiaromero]

Left behind introduced me to slipknot when I was 12, lol I still remember being afraid of the video but liking the song 😂😂😂

[@slipknot95maggot]

And he did the full version-! Nobody does the full version! Awwww, *&%6 yea, Senpai, do it to me [....did I use that word correctly...? Senpai...? My bad if not]

[@akhmedthemerchant4741]

My concern was not with senpai I'll tell you that

[@slipknot95maggot]

@@akhmedthemerchant4741 Don't hate the love of the 'knot xp

[@cthulhukc7six6six37]

Duality and Gently are the two Slipknot songs that always blow my mind and are phenomenal played live. Also would love to see your reaction to some Skinny Puppy.

[@theneckpump]

Geebz is just messing with us... he's a closet maggot for sure. "I push my fingers into my eyes" as he pushes his fingers into his eyes. Decomposes 'Before I Forget', then says he forgets the name of the last song he did by them. What's next?

[@TecTitan]

Vaguely remembering dead memories.

[@davidlefranc6240]

slipknot is still one of the best metal band from facts !good review as always!!!

[@Zulatek666]

Just found your channel, subbed! Your broadcast format is super chill and it feels like a smart discussion about music without going over a typical listeners head. Great stuff!

[@itsalladream]

No comment on the aluminum bat against the keg?? Great reaction, as always. Thanks!!

[@Tftapodcast]

Great job as always! More Slipknot please!

[@aysekarayalcn3873]

This is the best reaction channel ever and eveeeeeeeeerr !

[@Herpusderpus]

Great song and great review. Thanks for hours of entertainment, Geebz. I really like how you take a song that I think I know inside and out, and then immediately point out all these things I've never noticed, which reinvigorates my love for the song. If you ever do a breakdown for a post-metal band like Isis (In Fiction is one of my fav songs by them) or Cult of Luna (In Awe Of, Adrift, Dark City Dead Man, really ANY of their songs) I would probably hurt my mouse hand from clicking so fast. Either way, keep rocking on!

[@CraigKeidel]

Love that you're getting started with Vol 3, I think it's their most accessible and still at times most brutal record.
