"Almost every tab online is incorrect in some way. I realized I can trust my ear better." Amen!

[CodamATW]

Young Death Metal guitarist inspired to pick up the guitar by Van Halen in a Boston shirt? Really cool and rare to see these days.

[nicholasmercado]

Rest In Peace Trevor Strnad. These 2 were an INSANE combination. Feeling for him and the rest of the band. TBDM forever 😢

[xToshMoosex]

It’s funny how young he looks compared to the rest of the band but he is probably one of the best guitarists I’ve seen live in my whole life.

[shredfactor]

One of the best up and coming musicians!! BDM are lucky to have him on board

[wyattabrachinsky]

He’s got the neo-classical chops from hell. Now where can we find that Eruption/Yngwie talent show footage.

[alowlytarnished]

Now nobody can make the joke “That’s cool but can he play smoke on the water?”

[boraceylan]

1:10 That was the best 0 3 5 I've heard in my entire life.

[manuymagoxx]

I love the way he plays those riffs with that black dahlia murder essence and bends

[akumakami]

Got to love that he is wearing a Boston shirt, a very metal guitar, and is in a melodic death metal band 😂

[Robert-nvlj]

It’s crazy how far an instrument can take you. It’s also incredible how skilled someone can get at something!

[EVEROSFP]

His vibrato is so cool! Plus his attitude is so natural.

[kerembayrammusic]

4:00 I can play Solfeggio on the piano, but I couldn't even grasp how difficult it must be to play on the guitar. This man is an amazing guitarist! I look up to him. TBDM FOREVER!!! 🤘

[nigelnigelakiraakira]

You can definitely hear the difference between him as their lead guitarist vs. past lead guitarists. You can really hear the classic rock inspiration that I think should make it sound cheesey but it doesn’t! At least I think so.

[philipposkasotis]

Great guitar playing.

I still remember when BDM released Unhallowed. There is still to this day no album like that.

[HErsemerci]

He's really a underrated guitaris, he inspierd me so much and got me back into all the 80's stuff because of his roots

[leddygee]

I was honestly expecting some Cannibal Corpse, Entombed, and Dismember riffs... Good on you, little brother!!

[manofthewest]

Van Halen made me want to pick up a guitar too. The first time I heard the tapping lick in the intro of Hot for Teacher a switch was flicked in my brain. Synyster Gates is the guitarist that made me want to play metal.

[guitarplayer]

He’s my favorite player by a long shot, number 5 from the new album has quite possibly the best solo I’ve ever heard, brings me to tears.

[rafaelalamilla]

I'm really looking forward to this new record!
