TOP 10 AS I LAY DYING RIFFS

[@CaseyWalle]

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

[@quantumxfluxmd6821]

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

[@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

[@PureTexan]

The end breakdown of Confined is in my top 3 breakdowns of all time!!!

[@kmw5100]

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

[@eyeballs_ian]

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

[@lucdeverteuil1244]

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

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks man!! They are hella fun to play.

[@HiThereFaceHere]

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

[@adrianpearcy8531]

5:29 Goosebumps!

[@stevecourt346]

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

[@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 ❤️

[@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. ❤

[@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

[@pmedic523]

Sick dude. Very nicely done. Gotta go back and listen to some of the classics now. The only ones I’d personally add is the sound of truth and through struggle.

[@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.

[@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! :)

[@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!

[@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!!

[@rafaelsoto4742]

Nice list! An ocean between us has been one of my all time faves

[@thebenis3219]

Parallels is such a great song. Absolutely love the riffs bro!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks man 😊 glad it was fun to watch.

[@CamHardenCQ]

Phil & Nick, what a duo. Two of the greatest to ever do it imo. Miss that era of metal every day

[@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! 🙏🙏

[@ALEXANDERSTOEV]

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 :)))

[@alongmarch91]

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

[@midwestyeti263]

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

[@dshufflz3129]

Back again, unreal playing dude. Truly masterful💯🔥

[@ymwo97679]

Need a full “my own grave” cover from you man. Mixing was sooo good better than the original imo

[@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

[@NickST1192]

Man parallels is a riff masterpiece. Underrated song

[@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!

[@rbeforme]

One of the best bands of all time. Thanks man, great work.

[@psychosis8429]

This is sick it makes me wish I could play my my guitar right now. I love that there's a lot of stuff from An Ocean Between Us, The Powerless Rise and Shadows Are Security, those are my favorites by them

[@NonnyStrikes]

That guitar is a thing of beauty. Absolutely love the top curves and head!

[@alexmajor7773]

The last one caught me off guard, was expecting through struggle but damn nice pick bro!

[@downsouth5447]

Awesome. Such clean playing.

[@erz00na]

Hell yeah brother super talented awesome covers!! Your guitar is sick AF too

[@metalfreekz13]

My Top 10 10. Meaning In Tragedy 09. The Wreckage 08. Condemned 07. No Lungs To Breathe 06. Comfort Betrays 05. Parallels 04. Morning Waits 03. Shaped By Fire 02. Wasted Words 01. Collision

[@CaseyWalle]

I love the riffs in Comfort Betrays, the riff after the solo is a big slap.

[@Anonymoususer78913]

Where is confined on this list!?

[@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!

[@NicolasRouxx]

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

[@SkyweaverFPV]

My brother in Metal. Great job. I will always love As I lay dying. If it wasnt for them i wouldnt have started my music journey either.

[@thatmetalhead2182]

Sick cover, bro. As I lay dying are my top favs of metalcore along with Killswitch engage.

[@aidenyuri]

Same man.

[@jorgecontardo4347]

[@Gareskog]

These songs man...An Ocean and Shadows are probably the most meaningful metal albums of my life 😭❤. SICK playing here man!

[@davidarchambault2093]

Awesome job dude! I’m surprised Through Struggle isn’t here (not a critique, just genuinely surprised!). My personal favourite is probably Sound of Truth :)

[@Thibault-s2w]

Amazing job and tone bro ! 😎

[@roach5606]

my metal journey on guitar started with shadows are security! Sick vid dude.

[@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!

[@CaseyWalle]

Thanks so much my dude!

[@SOUNDCONTROLFLA]

Such clean playing, very impressedddd

[@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!

[@OblivionFalls]

Wrath Upon Ourselves is so underrated! Love to see it on here :D

[@guilhermepoleto8462]

Upsidedow Kingdom most nostalgic song - nice bro, a lot memories listen

[@aMODiEswede]

I really could just watch you play all day

[@SvargoSlav]

[@SheldonMLee]

Your song and riff choice is top tier bro cheers

[@juana8099]
