NEW SINGLE WE ARE THE ONES TO FALL OUT NOW!!! - Hudba
These guys just stepped out of a delorian from 1985 , talent intact.
Less paul, o ya,,,killer tone, Santa Cruz nailing it to the wall o-ya !!!!
Delorean
😂😂😂 damn, so right
Run back fools!
You mean Lambo...
RESPECT to these dudes for their EXTREME, OFF THE DAMN CHARTS TALENT and their 80's style attire.
I've never heard of them, but damn. Skill. Have you heard of Steel Panther? If not, check them out. 80s look and sound. Talented, but funny as hell.
Are they in Santa Cruz California?
@@phasetripper9567 nah Finland
i am 55y old. i have seen and hear all kinds of metal, hard rock, rock, and others since the start of them. i play guitar since i was 14. i can say that these guys are 2 of the best guitarist i ve ever heard. i think they can play any style of any known guitarist on this planet!
What I'm most impressed with is besides the mind blowing tapping, shred,...etc is the clarity and accuracy.
Gibson les Paul thats why
@@gixxusmetalman7435 music lessons and lots of fucking hard work and talent that's more why. They'd sound good playing an entry level squier. But yes a proper les paul doesn't hurt either
I've honestly lost track of the number of times Ive watched this. ....and here I am again !
me too man. I saved this one and keep coming back to it over and over again. at LEAST once a week
its here I go again...sir!
Besides the fact that these two guys just shred the shit out of the fretboard...what I find just as amazing is their LIGHTNING FAST ability to switch back and forth between the rhythm and treble toggle!!! Damn!! Great job guys!!
Freaking love the '80s
Hair bands, hot chicks and heavy metal.
I miss this duo and this Santa Cruz era so much
Drop D😮😮😊
Dyed hair, glam outfit and real talent making its way back into music...history always repeats itself, this time for the better! It was about time
I agree, these dudes have not even been born when glam rock was on the surface.
Why try to keep the theater on. I understand Michael Monroe that he has left the style on,
he has lived that era.
Right now to the barber...playing skills does not change.
Nah dud, good things never repeat
mekkemusic finally some cute glam boy / girls to jerk off too huh ! Those old POISON mags are getting sticky and motley Crüe aren’t as cute as they used to be . Finally a deposit into the spark bank brother ! I’m with ya
Hey it HAD to start somewhere"..IM JUST GLAD ITS BACK!".. sorry this is my dog's page I'm just lovin the music right now" have a great one!✌
Unfortunately, as kick-ass as these guys are, they won't be selling out arenas and have platinum albums and top 40 FM radio singles like a lot of hard rock / metal bands had back in the 80's. Granted, they're a nice and refreshing throwback to a bygone era, but this is as good as it will ever get. Just enjoy it for what it is, because they won't achieve household name status.
This is exactly how guitar should be played !!! Way to go !!!
I have watched this over 100 times. This is guitar perfection!
The people who disliked this couldn’t find the tabs
I just pised myself laughing. And it was worth it! These guys can rip!
@Tommy Bangacuci gtfo
😂
i can pretty much play the first part of the riff and licks from listening to it. but yeah im not even gonna try the solo part XD
this is so good 2:32 i cant sweep pick for shit
@@Peron1-MC same bro :D
2:19 Paul Gilbert's string skipping exercise!
Yeah lots of recycled 80’s licks in there. Lots of Nuno as well. If that’s what people want to hear shit yeah I’ll pull my pink Ibanez out of storage 🤘🤘🤘
Do it
Obviously super talented but also super creative and not just robotic shredding!! Those solos were freakin sick and melodic
How in the hell could anyone not like this
That's probably the LESS IS MORE brigade out there, as they were simply appalled at the obscene display of guitar wankery here. Me, I just loved it. My fav of all 3 STYD volumes.
Esse video é "antigo" e até hoje me impressiono. Absurdo mesmo.
Volta e meia eu volto pra assistir.
80's called and said you brought real music into our Robtic age! Keep it up
Oops, "keep up", oh well... 😭😭😭😪😪😢😢 such a huge loss, have u listened to their new singles? The 1st is nice, the 2nd not so much, and it's SUPER different from old Santa Cruz, cause only Archie stayed, SO SAD BIGGEST MUSIC LOSS EVER
Tocam muito. 🤘🤘
Wow I was just reminded of this comment:) happy to rewatch to the song again
Finally, finally actual badass 80s style talent and the looks to match.
You just got a fan
Okay. Just discovered these dudes. Went to Amazon and purchased all three releases. No pause. This band is badass. I’m 48, so I lived through the metal of the eighties. Santa Cruz is a decendent if that pop-metal lineage. Hail.
It takes a guitarist to fully understand just how impressive this is. And all in one take.
my face just melted.
I literally watch this EVERY time I see it. Then I go grab my Les Paul like I'ma shred like these dudes then I get depressed when I find out really quick that I can't...
That's why I put my les paul in drop D and just groove it out, it's excellent for that.
@Frank Masuzzo Then I hope my mayones doesn't complain to the abuse hotline 😅
Are these guys from the 80s or is this really happening in 2020? If so I am very happy to see this. Insane playing. My Les
Paul is calling.
I saw them in 2016 headed Sebastian Bach at Mavericks in Jacksonville. They were awesome. They were originally on a show in vh1 called breaking bands. CZcams it . It was a good show.
Imagine that it was common to see these guys playing in a small club in Finland. Before covid, obviously.
Сколько раз пересматриваю, столько раз сожалею что распалась такая замечательная группа!!!!
Both guys are incredibly awesome! That second solo is so amazingly bad to the bone. The first is almost as fantastic. Guitar World wake up! These guys need a cover story.
The tone of that second one wow!
Yes the second solo was also much harder to play.
This video is what made me start playing guitar, no kidding. It’s nostalgic rewatching it.
You can just tell that still almost 50 years later it still blows peoples mines
Johnny you must come back!
These guys are one of the best live bands i have seen, i saw them on last December and i am gonna see them again on Feb 13th.
PLEASE Record this for your next album, would be a kick-ass bonus track!! Sounds F*ING AWESOME!!!!!
Anyone who disliked this please stop stealing oxygen
Thanks for keeping 80's alive men!! I'll have some more beer... cheers!
not anymore. their U2 Octung Baby now....lol
Veeeery nice! Shredlicious 🎸🤯 Love it!
I'm most impressed by the speed of the blonde guy's mic switching!
OMG this was AWESOME.
These guys are next level awesome. Finland is where the best is coming from. Thanks guys for keeping the 80s torch burning!! I miss it sooo much.
We need more music like this nowadays!!!
Johnny is great with his playing styles. What he playing is so feel and rough that sound so deep hell.
I Love it . 1 of the Best Guitar Performances of all Time . I watched it unlimited Times and still watch it . This is Real Music and Rock and shred.
Man, those were the days....
Johnny solo blew my mind
Yeah, it's a shame they split up.
Dennis Karlsson Youre kidding right? What the hell happened?
I think they (Johnny, Tazz and Middy) had some problems wiith Archie, they decided to leave the band just in the middle of a tour so I think it was kinda serious...
Really,Great Guitarist
@@Sharknezz Probably a good thing, sounds like he is the real talent of the two. Some sick slick playing from the second half on out.
Long hair + white sleeveless tee + ripped jeans + burst les paul = Cool
Freaking love it and I'm almost 60 so happy to see this genre still living and breathing in young fine gentleman like you guys
Thank you guys for taking me back to time when I was in your age, when many bands had both- good music and cool image ! KEEP ROCKING🤘☠️
their sound is mindblowing and also love johns guitar
First time seeing this, it’s awesome these guys both burn.
I had to stop the video to throw my guitar out of the window and then continue watching
Kkkk
😂😭😭
🤣💨
no. Don't. That's the worse thing you can do.
Mind blowing! I've been playing for 30 years, and if I play for another 30 years I'll never be able to shred like this.
Same but try the downward pick slanting approach both of these players use it. Its really helped my shit picking technique wish I knew about how bad my RH technique was back then.
@@richardofsoski7446 I'm surprised none of those dumbfucks called this as fake? Lol. This is so clean.
Depends how many hrs you practice during those 30 yrs.
johnny parkkonen (the left one) play guitar 12 hrs a day since he was 11/13 (i forgot), and he didnt go to school he just play guitar.
These guys are great best stuff I’ve hear in a long time
Hell yea!! This kind of guitar playing is a lost art in rock and metal these days.
The 80s is still alive and kicking
These guys kick ass! That bend at 2:15!!
Makes my fingers bleed watching it
@@dougliolloool9309 how?!? Then you must be new to playing
@@stratomiesniinsaatanasti5250 Not new to paying but was trying to make a funny slapstick remark! It is indeed an insane bend and it could hurt if you were new to playing ha ha
@@dougliolloool9309 sure it could... but i think those guys are using only 10's
@@raddydydy i don't
This was my hangover cure for the day :)
I couldn’t stop watching once it had started
I listen to this track once a day for the past few months since I first heard it. Still not sick of it by a long shot
ive been watched this maybe 40 times since 2019, and this always remind me that i suck at guitar
Stick to it dawg. You'll get it eventually 😎
@@A_LoadedPotato_ yeahh, actually every time i watch this video, i instantly want to practice for 4 hrs lol
Fucking unbelievably kick ass. The world needs more of this. Wish I heard of these guys a long time ago.
Shreddy, melodic and groovy; everything I like. Love it !
These guys are incredible, how have I never heard of them before?
Una Gran banda, lastima que en una época donde predomina otro cosa... que no se pierda nunca este Rock!!
We need more of this stuff!! Shred Till You Drop 2, please?
There is no life form in the universe who dislikes this.
If you’ve got a song called shred till you drop It’s gonna have to be an, “In your face”, nasty piece of work. This did not disappoint. It’s spoke to my 80s soul.
I listen to this weekly... at minimum monthly. So sick.
2:33 Jason Becker approves :D
ayeapprove instantly thought of Becker when I heard that part
sweeps were the easiest licks there
Not Jason, Nuno Betancourt
This never gets old ,pure class ,this is the bollocks.
Can't stop watching this, it always makes me laugh...in a good way! Just as impressive as their playing is the speed in the use of the toggle switch, particularly in the first solo.
DAMN! That was KILLER! Would love to see more.
Amazing! The Alexi Laiho influence is strong :D
right?
Archie was in a band with Alexi called “The Local Band” check’em out.
Perfect blend of arpeggios and pentatonic licks....Outstanding beautiful work 👏 👌 👍
Seen them live several times and immediately astonished. Great band! Make it big!
1:33 Get The Funk Out arpeggio/sweeps
Def! You got it!
Yeah it is. But every lick by every rock guitarist is a lick by several others. Or 95% at least. Call it being influenced, as long as you aren't directly copying, it's just how it works
People that dont play guitar cant understand the genius of these two, they are the 0.00001% of players that can do this, its like a master of a violine but taken to another level, someone that can riff and change tempos mid flight. It take discipline of a pro athlete to achieve this and it breaks my heart that the space for these musicians every year is getting smaller
Dude i'm legit blown away. It kept getting better and better. Incredible!
This is just ridiculous.... Pure awesome talent.... Beats this modern playing style.
That's better than porn. I've watched it 1000 times.
+Lenin Lover heh true dat :D
+Lenin Lover sameeee
+Lenin Lover FUCK YES
Yeah, me too /m\
+Lenin Lover GUITAR porn. ;D
Rest in peace Santa Cruz....
Guns N' Roses on mun lempi bändi! \mm/
Amazing!! Glad you guys are keep that kind of music alive. Great work.
Love it...Gibson guys!!! No Fenders..no tremolo bars...just skill! Hell to the YEAH!!
Man that was awesome! I was cruising for some new music, and I might have just found it. LOVE the Les Pauls, great guitar music is on the rise again! way to go guys.
Christ. That gave me the chills. \m/
Wow awesome playing guys 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
That was absolutely awesome !! Total shred unbelievable playing love the groove.
Holy shit these guys are good
Outstanding! Great to see such precision playing live in this depressing era of canned backing tracks and lip-syncing. Happy to see some new rock blood out there. Keep it up! Thanks to Dan Wojta for making the introduction.
HOLY SHIT!!!!! And they say there are no more emerging guitar gods.......i was not expecting that. amazing players, who the hell are these guys????
Incredibly powerful music. They make it look easy.
They should develop this into a full length song! Totally badass from beginning to end! :D
those are some licks from different shredders, nothing really original
@@brotherfiretribe9566 not all of them are licks from diffrent shredders... maybe a couple
You guys are amazing , And on Les Paul,s too !!!!!!
The real name is "we will make you disgusted with guitar" ahah, love u guys
This is the sickest video on CZcams, these dudes are on fire!! 🔥😎🎸
Even now, in 2020, this is soOooO refreshing! \|/
Hey Steve Vai this is Guitarplay Music and ROOOOOCK!!!!!
Agree 100% Steve Vai and Satriani Sound like Schoolboys after this.
This is better than Everything Vai and Satriani ever did.
1:32 is inspired by Nuno Bettencourt in his solo from Get the Funk Out by Extreme. Cool tune guys
I can't stop myself watching this.. . thanks men...this is exactly how I want to sound like.... thanks
I didn't know what to expect, but I am impressed!
usually people are all hair and no playing or all playing and no hair, but these guys have BOTH
Yep, I love coming back to this video occasionally to her some sick licks. I mostly play modern metal stuff now, but I started with good old hair metal.
Where i can find a backing track for this? Is awesome!!
I don’t know how I got here, but I never want to leave! 🤘
Holy shit this is like the best playing I've ever seen in the 2010's
