I've loved this track since it first dropped and I have to say I'm blown away by how current this still fucking sounds, timeless song writing at it's best 🤷♂️
These lads are the voice of a revolution. Not only informing us with powerful knowledge worth researching, writing about real shit, but doing it whilst ripping the sickest bars, sexiest grooves and djentastic chops. Love what you are doing, keep up the hard work. I can't wait to get to a show. Peace!
I dont know about the hd pro but you probably can get it with the XT or the X3, a pc and some decent pickups. Of course proper picking and palm muting techniques are hugely important to really pound the tone out.. :)
+hacktivistuk I have the Engl e530 which I bought purely because of this video. Could you please tell me how you were using it Timfy? Would really appreciate it. was it 4 cable method with the Pod?. How were you EQ ing etc Bright switch on or off? Contour? etc etc. cant wait for the new record too! \m/
I don't think it necessarily matters for a playthrough video like this. It's his work that's being played through a recording, and he's playing along to it. All we need to know is what he does, when he does it and how.
mygod you guys are amazing O.o I'm trying to work stuff out with my band...we're a prog metal group, but its difficult cause one of my guitarists always wants to play fast stuff so HE is entertained, but the rest of us want slower, more hardcore shit...the fun part about being in a band is about PLAYING in a group, not WHAT you play, right? thats how i feel at least...any advice on what to say and how to make everything work? we're trying to get big so, any advice helps :D keep on rocking! :P
so can anyone confirm if this song is in drop E or open E tuning? This is some nice guitar playing. Nothing technically mindblowing but some nicely composed riffs!
There isnt one. If you want good quality you record through an amp modeler into a computer program like POD studio then record yourself playing the song then sync both of those. It sounds way better than recording live with a camera mic.
lol....you obviously haven't listened to some of their other songs and btw he does use it in this song but it's recorded on the backing track, in this video he only plays the chug parts....
This tune is beautiful without vocals, powerful with them.
4:03 is one of the most melancholic riffs in history.
That tone...
was literally the main reason I bought the ENGL E530 and Pod HD PRO haha.
Next month Im finally going to be pairing them together through my new cab!

2:20 *ABSOLUTE DESTROYER MODE*
to this day, arguably the best djent tone ever. Not to mention one of the best djent songs created as well
Nah
such an amazing song. deffo my fav track and I love the older raw track before the Spotify versions
bands like hacktivist + periphery make my life worth living
Libertarian Djent.. In heaven..
I can`t wait for the album!
seriously want some tabs for this!
fabulous tone
Sounds amazing!
It's almost the same thing. LTD's are the cost friendly versions of their ESP counterparts so it close to the actual thing.

Is that a POD HD Pro I see in the background? Can you share your patches pretty please?!
@TheMobiusR I am pretty sure it's in drop E.
I dont know about the hd pro but you probably can get it with the XT or the X3, a pc and some decent pickups.

Drop Z# tuning for anyone who doesn't know
Drop E
+hacktivistuk
I have the Engl e530 which I bought purely because of this video.
Could you please tell me how you were using it Timfy? Would really appreciate it.
was it 4 cable method with the Pod?. How were you EQ ing etc
Bright switch on or off? Contour? etc etc.
cant wait for the new record too! \m/
is there tabs for this anywhere ??
Beautiful playing man!
@NephtaliCespedes
yeah, i call shenanigans as well.
agreed!
Really nice!
Timfy what's your gear? I know the POD and the Engl but the other two.
@TheMobiusR It's in drop E.
Hi ! how make your drum ?
i love the chorus riff
So what exactly is your set up in this video? Like how are you running everything?
amazing guy !!!
What tuning is this? So sick!
What tuning is it in??
What tuning is used here.. ?
@Moonohol @Lawlsaucelicious i remember seeing its not Drop E. The low string is E but the rest is like Open E or something
pretty much. I agree a play through should be live
Whens the album coming out?
yes
Im sure it says somewhere on here but.... What tuning is this? Low E? or F#?
Amazing
@NephtaliCespedes yeah i know ahhaa mad but is really cool to play around with :)
awesome timfy.
Whats the tunning
Awesome! 🔥
its an engle pre-amp , not an engle power amp
i see your using a pod, settings please?
Last year you had the same guitar with other fretboard did you?
could you send me the patch for the sound? :)
it's the Stephen Carpenter ESP LTD sc-608b. Beautiful guitar.
I don't think it necessarily matters for a playthrough video like this. It's his work that's being played through a recording, and he's playing along to it. All we need to know is what he does, when he does it and how.
What tuning are you playing in dude? :)
That is such a sick ax
so fucking awesome!! can you guys release the album already??
Settings??? :D
Do more guitar play throughs...
I think he is using Axe Fx Ultra...it's impossible to get such a strong djent tone through the hd pro...or can you? :O
can I get tabs for this =D
Is that a Stef carpenter signature esp
Patches....NAOW!
Seriously, how the hell did you get that tone of the HD Pro!
(relatively) simple but very awesome, tour Europe please :)
so heavy \m/
as you said its about teamwork. you can have your slow hardcore parts, and include his fast riffs. mix it up a little
no way bro! 2:20 is the best riff. that shit grooves so effin hard
the tuning (from thickest to thinnest is) E, B, E, A, e, a, b, e. :) hope this helps :)
❤️🔥
my god this band is amzing
yeah!!!!!!
U didn't listen to Blades?
mygod you guys are amazing O.o
I'm trying to work stuff out with my band...we're a prog metal group, but its difficult cause one of my guitarists always wants to play fast stuff so HE is entertained, but the rest of us want slower, more hardcore shit...the fun part about being in a band is about PLAYING in a group, not WHAT you play, right? thats how i feel at least...any advice on what to say and how to make everything work? we're trying to get big so, any advice helps :D keep on rocking! :P
That tone
its weird how timfy uses his index finger...
so can anyone confirm if this song is in drop E or open E tuning? This is some nice guitar playing. Nothing technically mindblowing but some nicely composed riffs!
@YouShallLoseTheGame dude it says LTD
I love the riff at 2:20 - 2:49
There isnt one. If you want good quality you record through an amp modeler into a computer program like POD studio then record yourself playing the song then sync both of those. It sounds way better than recording live with a camera mic.
SC-608B
How the fuck does he execute the note so short?! it's staccato on a new level!
lol....you obviously haven't listened to some of their other songs and btw he does use it in this song but it's recorded on the backing track, in this video he only plays the chug parts....
If the hacktivist ever tour Sweden I know a bunch of guys that would be there ;)
I REALLY wish this had a solo....well time to jam to this haha.
No..the last riff in Unlike Us!
Wasn't it open E? o_O?
1:43, such a hardon for that guitar tone
i actually think the tuning is open E.......not too sure, just ask timfy!!
At first i was all like, "this is cool, i could get in to this." Then at 2:20 i randomly shit my pants and threw up at the same time.
4:04 music to my ears
dat snare
He's running the POD HD Pro through an ENGL power amp.
2:49 surprised nobody else is jizzing over this part as much as i am.
That first chorus where it's clean really reminds me of...dare I say...Trapt.
I want that guitar so bad.
that intro riff !! holy fuk thats heavy !!! i think i just went deaf :)
COME TO NORTH CAROLINA AND PLAY ME A SHOW, BITTE
палка хорошаа!!!
£5000+ worth of gear and the mix clips in this version haha.
Love it though, no one is putting out jams this groovy right now.
This song is incredibly dark. \m/
Sounds like Drop E to me bro
This would be the SC-608b Model.
literally one of my favorite riffs of ever lmfao
it just sounds so... fucked up lol
4:00 Dem octaves.
