OK, so let me explain why GOAT is higher level than ABC and The Audacity (w/ my terrible English) First, those levels don't show the difficulty of riffs itself but the one of techniques required in the riffs. In this point, I think that triplet > thumping > hammers. Tbh, the position of The Audacity is a play on words about 8string and level8. Btw I still think GOAT is harder than Audacity and ABC if you play in high quality. GOAT's triplet needs a synchronization of picking and fingering so this is harder to play in accurate timing. This issue will be happen even after you become very good at playing guitar. Difficulty of The Audacity is directly related to how you good at thumping. If you can do basics of thump, this intro riff has no crazy phrases. On the other hand, ABC has the abcdefgh lick. But most of the problems is probably hammers from nowhere (On the other word, all right hand has to do is a couple of hybrid and tapping, then single muted sweep) So if you focus to train your left hand and get strong hammers, it will be way better than you think. Of course, my tutorial must be helpful for you :) And sorry for my hardest riff #4 is wrong! It's not main riff but whole outro.

Let’s all be very serious about Polyphia for a moment. No matter who you are or where you are from on this planet. You must agree however they are doing what they are doing, they are the future, they are far far far into the future if I’m Being honest. There’s maybe 5000 guitarists that can play Polyphia on the planet like KAWA can. I want you all to do 5000/9000000000. These guys are doing something that has absolutely never been done. And then you have to look at what it takes to write these songs at this speed. Writing these songs seems even rarer than playing them. Think about that for a moment. You literally have to be able to teleport to write these. Tim looks and plays the way he does Because he is possibly the furthest from an average person you can get on this planet. Whoever is driving the writing is on a completely different level than anyone now or to come for quite a while I would say.

Tim did make a video with a title stating that O.D. is actually the hardest Polyphia song so it being almost at the top makes perfect sense when you consider that the song above it is Ego Death and that's not actually a song that they play live.

40 oz sweep was rough lol, you were playing it on a super clean tone though so understandable. part of what makes that riff sound so great is the reverb and the harmonies you get from the notes slightly ringing out. playing it on the clean tone even played perfectly isnt going to sound as good
