TOP 10 AS I LAY DYING RIFFS

My top 10 favourite riffs from As I Lay Dying, in order from least favourite to most favourite. If it wasn't for this band I wouldn't have started playing guitar in the first place. So this video is especially important for me. I had a lot of fun recreating these riffs, so I hope everyone can enjoy this video as much as me.

If it wasn't for An Ocean Between Us (Album) coming into my life at the perfect time during one of the most difficult times of my life, I probably would never have started playing guitar. Nick and Phil are 2 of my favourite guitarists and human beings, these 2 lads paved the way for newer Metalcore and in my opinion were way ahead of there time. Despite the controversies with the band's past, As I Lay Dying were my favourite band for a long time and this video is very important to me. When I started playing guitar it was my goal to play these songs, I probably achieved that a long time ago but to make a video of this quality is even more satisfying. Please give a thumbs up, a sub, a comment, everything helps me continue making quality videos. Cheers guys! ❤❤

[@sergepalekha]

ha same, an ocean between us lead me down deep into the metal genre

[@JasonMontell2501]

When did u first hear the band?

[@CaseyWalle]

@@JasonMontell2501 might've been 2005 or 2006

[@timbennet3326]

yes! badass playing dude, super clean and tight. whats your signal chain?pickups and amp?

[@JasonMontell2501]

@@CaseyWalle me too. Shadows are security is still my favorite album

[@ndefiore]

Well done. And also thanks for playing more than just 7 seconds of the riff and moving on. Love the longer format than what everybody else does

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks dude, first person to really comment on that aspect. A lot of the time, the thing that makes a riff good, is the build up or the transition. It's hard to enjoy 7 seconds of a riff when there's really no climax.

[@kanestarrett9019]

I will sit through a whole play through of all these. Well done my man

[@elliottjesser2813]

Also glad he didn't just play all the popular ones.

[@etb943]

this is like a "try not to pull out your guitar challenge".... i lost after forsaken came on lol

[@CaseyWalle]

Haha I love it! Forsaken will definitely do that to you haha

[@thewikemeston]

The chorus of Parallels is in my top 5 favorite riffs of all time

[@mikemelara9591]

I forgot about this songs chorus… HEAVY… perfect melody.

[@TheGreyGhoul]

Top 3 for me. Amazing chorus

[@kmw5100]

they have always had some of the most captivating riffs in all of metalcore.

[@quantumxfluxmd6821]

Some people really forget how iconic AILD is to the genre. Great video man

[@eyeballs_ian]

Please do pt.2 of As I Lay Dying songs!! Ever since I watched this video I suddenly became an AILD fan!!!

[@HiThereFaceHere]

This was damn good. Made me appreciate Phil Sgrosso so much more. Dude is a musical genius

[@lucdeverteuil1244]

Nostalgic af. I want to learn every riff in this video. Great job mate!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks man!! They are hella fun to play.

[@international_perspective]

Dude, you killed those riffs. It was so satisfying to sit and stare at those riffs when I've pictured how they might look for so many years. I'm dusting off the cobwebs and joining a cover band to perform a few "2008 myspace metalcore" shows and 'Nothing Left' is on the setlist. That song is way harder to get tight than I thought. Your control and ability to silence any white noise was great, I hope I can achieve the same thing, especially live.

[@slrnoise]

I remember covering 94 hours and a bunch from an ocean between us as a kid. Thanks for the memories!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks for watching brother I enjoy your content too. ❤

[@Peter_Velardi]

And if it wasn’t for you I’d prolly have never attempted to play any ERRA material. You’re an absolute monster dude, cannot wait to see what you do with a 7 string. Keep slayin 🤘🏻

[@CaseyWalle]

Love the cycle!! I hope you can be an inspiration for others too ❤️

[@nickschnellmusic]

The Above, Below album art in the back made me so happy. What a criminally underrated band!!

[@CaseyWalle]

They need to put out more stuff

[@stevecourt346]

Finally! Someone playing the My Own Grave intro riff right! Love this video

[@Jimminityjabooboo]

I love the breakdown in Confined Phil is such a beast at writing riffs. This cover is so well done, man. Good work would love to see more bro!

[@ynwa1283]

You’re probably not on here super often, but I just wanted to say a massive THANK YOU for posting this. AILD was THE band that got me into metal a very, very long time ago. And I just started playing guitar 2 weeks ago. Your video came up on my recommendations and boy am I glad I clicked! Keep shredding brother! Amazing.

[@CaseyWalle]

I still read everything. Glad to hear that and I hope you enjoy the journey! :)

[@adrianpearcy8531]

5:29 Goosebumps!

[@half_a_musician9581]

Oh man, those riffs never cease to bring out goosebumps for me, and you nailed them with such clean precision! I love the intensity "My Own Grave" brings out with those gallops. "My Only Home" shares that intensity. Riff on!!

[@southerndiscomfort171]

spent a lot of time in high school surfing and listening to this album

[@NicolasRouxx]

AILD these monsters !! Thanks bro for this video. You sound is amazing, give more information about your rig and mix !!!

Solid dude! Killer shit! So calm and relaxed shredding the crap out of that guitar! One of my favorite bands. Well done indeed!

[@alongmarch91]

Dude this was freaking amazing. Love As I lay dying. You killed these riffs man. That band is so technical

[@jacks910]

Awesome video man, riffs sounded super clean and as good as there original version. Cool that you know how to play so many different and unique AILD riffs. 10/10 guitar playing, you should be proud.

[@CaseyWalle]

Thank you so much sir! 🙏🙏

[@anonalien69]

This video came up while working on a project and it's badass brother keep this shit alive it's even cooler now imo

[@kman8749]

I just can't play this fast and clean. My brain just can't handle it. I've been trying to for a very long time. Nice job!

[@gregoryj.stgermain4729]

This video got me into ASILD and I have loved them dearly ever since. Thank you so much for putting this together! Your playing is also super tight and inspired me to pick the guitar back up again after a few years of barely playing.

[@CaseyWalle]

That's awesome dude, glad to hear that!

[@bruce21]

Couldnt have been any better!

[@JEFFISWEE]

I still come to your channel often, and I love playing the Forsaken part in this video, the chorus fills me with good energy every time :)))

[@unreconstructed]

Damn this is a badass video! I hadne listened to some of these songs in a while and hearing those riffs made me go back and liaten to those masterpieces. You are awesome man, that sound and tone you have is killer!

You should learn them my man!!

[@valdinho91]

@@CaseyWalle I learned most riffs from Shadows Are Security album when I was teenager. This march i got new Schecter Reaper LH as 30yr birthday gift.. Hopefully I have time to practice on upcoming holidays. I Haven't played actively almost in 8 years so my picking wrist is killing me. 😅🎸

[@Andybility]

Those gallops on My own grave are insane

[@cesargil1534]

You have a new suscriber!!! 👍

[@spenserszakacs3988]

Would love to see a video like this with Born of Osiris riffs. Some very tasty lead and rhythym riffs!

[@benlenderman1777]

Went to music on KZbin. Your vid was the first one that popped up. I just wanted some background noise while I did some research on my phone. I ended up watching your video. You killed it. AILD has been a HUGE influence on my guitar playing and I respect your ability. Although,I’ll say you didn’t look like you were having much fun. Lol

[@CaseyWalle]

It's more of a concentration face than lack of fun haha, something I can't help much unfortunately! But glad you enjoyed the vid!

[@HighThrone]

2 Riff machines in that one band.

[@wjj-yx7ku]

No sound of truth is kind of a bummer. Solid choices for the most part. Nice playing!

[@michaelhite361]

Ozzfest 2005 at post gazette pavilion I was drunk as fuck passed out in the lawn before you get to stage 2 as I lay dying came on started playing I woke straight the fuck up and was sober as a judge because they were so good I I love the darkest nights riff

[@SimonHelling]

Awesome!

[@joshyyosh]

That dude has the definition of "guitar fingers" holy shit!

more like piano fingers haha
