@@benr7965 I always feel that one of Guthre's many strengths is that he has a great knowledge of styles to employ. Be that in a lead context, or rhythm, he's always absolutey confident and never out of his depth. Max has some great chops and phrasing, but the experience isn't there yet. Yet. I'm sure it will come if he continues branching out :)

The title, the mention of pain (which is maybe a request for strings?), that the takes went over day and night, maybe multiple days. I think this was hard for him due to his own high quality control. My guess he did tens, maybe hundreds of takes, and then pieced together what he liked best. The mood and feel of each section is so different I think it would be hard to replicate different timing and moods if played in one play through. Either way, he is amazing and seems to only be getting better and more interesting and musical in his soloing. Compared to his insane shredding a few years ago, the musicality is so much more advanced and original now.

Every time Max releases a video, I get excited. What he makes me feel when I listen to him play, is inexplicable. I simply love the feel, note choices and phrasing. Anyone who thinks this is just a bunch of fast notes played together at super speed with no feel, doesn't understand music. You can play a fast legato or picked run and it can still sound musical. Just because it's fast, it doesn't mean that it's quickly excluded from being musical. Slow notes can also sound unmusical when there's no feel or phrasing. Beautiful understanding of note choices, command of the instrument and most of all - feel. Great stuff Max!
