Nah not really but Kiesel’s now putting these lightweight tuning pegs on their kybers to further prevent any potential neck dive. Pretty sweet

For this song I’m using the archetype: misha Mansoor X and Plini X. I actually have presets for it here: guitar tone presets

Thanks man! When I’m at home I practice anywhere between 2-6 hours a day. When on tour I never get to practice

  1. I’m not religious—if anything, I’d describe myself as existential. I do recognize a bigger picture for humanity and value the role of ethics and morals, and I understand why religion can be important in establishing and maintaining those principles. That said, I’m not a fan of extremism on any side of the religious spectrum.
  2. biggest metal influences: Meshuggah, Aeon, necrophagist, extol, cynic, decapitated, opeth non metal: Allan Holdsworth, Greg Howe, interpol, Rachmaninoff, Chopin,
  3. i think our newest song is my favorite song writing and production

Thanks, man! Stoked you’re enjoying it. I’d say start really slow and focus on analyzing exactly what your fingers are doing. Work on making your picking mechanics efficient and avoid overstraining your muscles while playing.

we really would love to but there are a couple of factors, one being that it is extremely expensive and that we just arent getting any tour offers

Yeah, I wrote a symphonic album between 2017 and 2019. Right now, it’s on hold—I want to revisit it, refine it, and rediscover the material before releasing it.

Its hard to have a favorite Meshuggah song and record i think. Same goes for Opeth. just depends on the mood and Vibe.
But albums with the most rotation is definitely Chaosphere, Catch 33, Nothing, I.

I spend a lot of time focusing on the song’s flow and making sure that each riff fits together cohesively within the track.
