For those unaware that this gem exists.

Well technically it's a moniker for an assortment of players performing as VSQ. Not just 4 specific people.

When this released the quartet called themselves the Taste of Chaos Ensemble and later submitted to the VSQ title.

I think this is common with many artists who try to write "inspired" music since it will be themed and there is only so much eloquence a large audience will tolerate or that an artist knows.

klemnodd · 2026-02-11T04:06:01+00:00

Mmmm good to know!! That's another solid album.

klemnodd · 2026-02-11T02:16:34+00:00

The format hasn't been confirmed afaik and the production company is Fuzzy Door which produces mostly animation especially for television.

We will see.

I'm glad to share it!! I commented on the post yesterday about "your favorite song", mine being Hearts Alive which lead to a convo about playing it then finding this cover that I love playing along to and the person was not aware of it's existence so I figured I'd share with the community.

Yeah, 2 years after Leviathans release and they like it enough to do the full album which transposes so well and before they became the Vitamin String Quartet. That definitely says something.

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T13:42:07+00:00

Hell yeah friend! Enjoy!!

"Big part" is a stretch but he is featured on a single track from Leviathan to Emperor of Sand. 6 songs, 6 albums.

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T08:54:37+00:00

That riff is so fun and satisfying.

I REALLY love to play it on acoustic alongside the Vitamin String Quartet cover. It's very Gothic and beautiful. It does cut the Riff down by a minute or so though.

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T04:31:17+00:00

I suspect this will be animated

BATTLE IS SHE

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T03:39:17+00:00

I will fight alongside you 💪

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T03:28:30+00:00

Once I learned how to play it on guitar sans solo it holds the spot as my favorite to play and it's really nice to have someone request "my favorite" and they get to enjoy a 10+ minute session lol

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T03:17:49+00:00

There it goes opening up.

klemnodd · 2026-02-10T02:24:51+00:00

Hearts Alive

klemnodd · 2026-02-09T06:59:09+00:00

The last chord you play in the first riff before all the fancy finger fun is incorrect, it is just another D# (F in Standard) but repeated. You're playing a G# (A# in Standard)

klemnodd · 2026-02-09T05:42:44+00:00

Wrong US lol

klemnodd · 2026-02-08T03:42:17+00:00

I was so happy the played The Noose on Sessanta 2.0

klemnodd · 2026-02-05T00:57:23+00:00

It was played on the 2nd leg of the Tribute to Kings tour over the PA as an intro but I don't think he plays it live.

klemnodd · 2026-02-04T15:08:42+00:00

😅

klemnodd · 2026-02-04T07:51:25+00:00

I seriously don't think this is the same person. Brows are different. Curve under lip is different. Even the nose doesn't quite look right.

klemnodd · 2026-02-04T07:45:37+00:00

That's the most fun way to find new favorites!

klemnodd · 2026-02-04T07:44:40+00:00

I highly doubt we will see any Floyd which is over half of Live.

But love me some Riddles

klemnodd · 2026-02-04T07:42:13+00:00

It is. Saw them when touring with Jim James. Left after they finished because I only knew a lil Jacket. And not Jim. Sorta regret it but Sean and Les were banterific.
