Jason is such an incredible player. And those who say his playing has no feeling, simply haven’t heard his music.

[@AbhishekNair2k]

@UC1i84Evsyb0V8KMcTuVzzMw I usually agree that a lot of shred doesnt have feeling. Personally, I think his songs do have feeling for eg, his solo in Nasty and his originals have a lot of groove like Tendonitis

[@JeroenAristides]

His playing has no feeling...

[@Joose]

Jeroen van Geel That is factually incorrect.

[@nathanielcava4128]

Who cares about feeling or not? If u like it great. If not it’s cool. Too many people box themselves/genres into rules or things that don’t matter.

[@raindogred]

we literally just saw him play his music..sounded like white noise to me..no feeling, or anything interesting happening

[@poopydoodoo6313]

I remember when he was with born of Osiris in the early days but once he branched out and started doing stuff with Chelsea Grin then got with Luke Holland he just blew up and you can really see his potential Blossom from there this guy is absolutely amazing and for being around the same age as me is still one of my heroes

[@hcaz5818]

[@Incog2k6]

Jason, as well as other Millennial guitarists like Mateus Asato, Yvette Young, Sarah Longfield, Ichika Nito or Tosin Abasi, are proof that the art of guitar is safe and well. In fact, they are taking the guitar to the next level and are inventing their own styles. They will inspire future generations (together with the old heroes). Yup, the art of guitar is in good hands.

Great interview! I have listened to him since he was in Born of Osiris and have always been blown away by how clean he can play insane parts. Not to mention, well-written guitar parts. Now I understand why, he seems like he works incredibly hard to get where he is. He definitely learns from top-notch players.

[@AlexisGitarre]

I so HOPE that he's getting a proper Band in the future with a good SINGER . His playing is soooo good. I wish he would do not only instrumental, so much potential to get to a way bigger audience.

[@lyconxero457]

That's crazy about the Train of Thought album being his intro to this style of playing because I remember something similar happening to me back when I was in college. This shows how much older I am as compared to Jason but I had been playing guitar for a year or so mostly playing covers of rock and nu metal bands when I heard that album. It was my first introduction to Dream Theater and that lead to me discovering many other progressive rock/metal bands over the years. Sadly I never really learned to play like any of them but I learned enough to be able to have a deeper appreciation for what they were doing musically.

[@GlockenspielSAS]
