The fact that most of his subscribers don't even know he's in a band says alot about him. He almost never even mentions it on his channel. Most other KZreadrs would be shoving it in your face like crazy.

He does mention it but does it very ’tastefully’, if that makes sense. Like he has their songs and some tour dates and stuff in the endcard sometimes. But you can definitely tell he’s one of those who does youtube separately for fun, rather than as PR for a band or product. On a similar note, I probably watched DickeyDines for over a year without knowing either of them were in a band because they truly never mention it. I don’t tend to follow everyone on all social media though so I guess I only have myself to blame for not knowing things lol

I figured he was probably in a band or just jammed with his buddies because of the guitars you can see in his videos, but seeing this makes him so much cooler. And he already seemed like a super chill cool guy you’d want to hang out with. Love his YT channel. I died when he mentioned it at the beginning as the place where tell stories about people cumming on things. Right on brand for Whang!

Ngl, I clicked on the vid ready to comment "not enough bodily fluids" but of course Justin opens with that. The guy never disappoints

That extra finger "pinch harmonic" reminds me of how I learned fingerstyle pinch harmonics on bass - laying the thumb perpendicular to the string, barely touching, while plucking with the first finger like normal. It's essentially like a natural harmonic played over an imaginary 39th fret or something.

I use my middle finger instead of choking up on the pick and I've been doing it that way for 16 years lol. It's kinda like "pinching" the string in between my pick and middle finger so that I'm touching the string where my thumb would anyway, and tbh it sounds so much cleaner than when I do it the "correct" way.

One of the best youtubers in one of the best new nu-metal bands

I love that he played sooo much of his favorite riffs and talks about each one! And why they are his favorite.

I knew he was going to mention The Offspring. I literally had the opening riff of "The Kids Aren't Alright" stuck in my head.

The best Loudwire intro of all time

and to think this guy drinks like 50 cans of beer and still play like that is nothing short of amazing 😀

playing the offspring on an 8-string is such a power play.

I love listening and watching to him playing guitar 🫶🏻

Oh man, you played that riff from The Great Southern Trendkill quite well.

Not a fan of his band but I still got respect for him

I can't believe he played Not Tomorrow. That's one of the first songs I learned.

Damn he actually has some killer vibratos

I love this man. Easily one of my most favorite KZreadrs ever.

Awesome to see my favorite youtuber here!

Sweet Dreams was also my first thing I ever learned. It's a fun little thing and teaches a decent stretch and switching strings.

That cannibal corpse put a smile on my face!

YEAH THE BOIS, this is a video I never knew I needed but I’m so happy it’s here

Whoa, that's exactly how I used to do pinch harmonics too when I was learning them. I could never get them the correct way until muuuuuch later.

holy shit! i love justins videos, wish he did more music related videos like this too tbh!

*Love that 8-string weapon!*

Hearing u play Not Tomorrow made me smile so big. Underrated video game song…

Man Justin was so stoked for this video lol

4:31 oh yeah that part from SpineSplitter! 😳 Whao!!! 🎸🤘

AYOOOOOO this the best video loud wire has done yet

Woah I’ve been fan of both of your channels this is wild

Holy shit we have tons in common the first riff I learned was sweet dreams and I always do pinch harmonics after mastering them to play cemetery gates

Hell yeah! Love this man.

His version of sweet dreams was so crisp 🔥🔥🔥

I love Justin, my fav creator of all time.

mah man whang is on loudwire now, AWESOME!!

Ayy! It’s this guy! I wasn’t expecting this. Ps, I learned the pinch harmonics thing by laying my pinky on a string next to the neck pickup. Slaughter of the soul and My own summer are my two go to jams. One of my internet mutuals made a video where they sang apple bottom jeans lyrics over the instrumental but still kept the vocal melody. Also, I wonder what that cool riff song is.

That was the greatest 10 second intro ever 🤣 Gotta love Justin! Super funny guy and a great guitarist!

Dude! Sweet Dreams was 1 of my 1st too that i played all the way thru....i mean of course i learned smoke on the water...but Sweet Dreams was 1 i enjoyed playing, keep up the good work bro, been subscribed for a long time....ROCK ON!!!!

Pinch harmonics is just picking the note and lightly grazing the string with your thumb at the same time, then you bend it out, and you're done dealin, easy peasy

Whang has the perfect name for what he does on KZread

Slaughter Of The Soul is an all time favorite!

One of my favorite KZreadrs

oh hey i love whang!

Damn whang! And loudwire didn’t see that

To this day, the only thing I can play on guitar is like half of Lay the Ghost to Rest

I usually (try to) describe doing pinch harmonics like doing a 'palm mute' but just with the very small bit of skin on the thumb of your picking hand that doesn't touch the string when playing normally, but you kind of pick the note with the pick and that little bit of thumb skin simultaneously. You might have to move your picking hand around a little bit to different areas on the string to get the desired squeals out of it. Its one of those things that once you've done it well a time or two, you will develop the muscle memory for it, pretty quickly.

Love this

Brooooo I did the SAME thing with harmonics. I couldn't fathom how guitarists nailed the "poke" so well every time lol

Whang is AWESOME. Jynx is great as well.

Love his ECW knowledge

for pinch harmonics ill always tell kids i used to teach guitar to float your finger above the string and listen for a specific effect, then pull.

Did you buy the poop guitar?

Die hard fan of Jynx, probably one of the first here in France, love you guys, keep it 👆

Oh my God didn’t expect to see him here

Pinch harmonics - exactly as it says, pinch! You pinch the string the moment you strum, that is how i try to explain it + show it, ofc :D

He definitely knows how to Whang the guitar

I didn’t realize one video about my little pony would lead me here.

Nice toneeee

Pinch harmonics: Pluck the string with your pick while letting your thumb touch the string. It shortens the string from the fretted note to the note you plucked causing an artificial harmonic..
