i'm in my early 30's just getting back into guitar after not playing for about 10 years. In the short time i have been subscribed to your channel, it has already proven to be such a useful resource in getting my chops back up and even learning some new tricks and techniques. you have such a chill & direct approach to teaching while still being detailed and informative. really happy i subscribed

every single modern metal riff i hear in my ears is just derived from Pale Aura. Definitely not a bad thing, but it just comes to show how people like Mark set trends and these them don’t change. Great vid :)

2:35 thats the Lydian Scale. Just if someone wants to know ^^

I ran into you on a post regarding baritones. Looked you up and I’m glad I did. There’s a lot of us 40 something-year-old‘s that grew up playing Metallica and Slayer and Black Sabbath that got stuck playing power chords for creating riffs. This was good for me. I already have the skills to implement these ideas. Thanks for helping.

Thank you so much for this! I've been stuck in a rut for quite too long and my riffs are all aging. I've been looking for some content like this and I cant express enough how thankful i am that i came across your video. I cant wait to go home and try and practice this lesson. Again, Thank you so much! God Bless you mr!

2:30 when "4" matches his talking pitch perfectly

[decadence]

I felt that the empty space was embraced rather than elaborated, which I find disappointing accents to chords and distance can be helpful to break up the hard breaks, my opinion

9:05 - visual example of a dissonant eargasm

[agogolover]

Great content bro!! I see a lot of Mark Holcomb / Periphery reference!! Good stuff!

[Mattabeln]

You create the mind of metal ive been narrowing in to. Would love a real breakdown, a how to play!

[Natwonsalery]

Milner-Skudder went from breaking ankles to breaking down riffs

The tapping at 5:25 sounds like fireflies YOU would not believe your eyes
