I love music theory and large chords and proggy stuff and all, but sometimes you just have to go stupid and be ultra caveman, cuz that's how you get magic like this!
Dude, that snare is absolutely insane
Now all we need is a gnarly Knocked Loose scream on that slowdown

Where the two beats are at right before the slowdown should be an ARF ARF

It’s not a nick broomhall vid if nobody’s making puns in the comments
im also writing a thrown / alpha wolf style song and this video will be a reference for me to finish the song nick saving my songwriting process once again
Everytime I watch TRT I get so inspired to load up logic

I concur!
Spotify just constantly wants me to listen to Thrown.
This is my fave one yet. Hell yeah brother!
Seen thrown twice now, second time being yesterday, and they were absolutely INSANE both times 😮💨
I will do anything for more of your videos bro! I work for a truck driving/street sweeping company and I’ve binged your vids over a few times now on the job. You also post on my pay day so TRT is always a huge part of my week and always gets me itching to get home and write more creative music 😎 PS totally gonna book a production meeting with you soon! Love your stuff
Can't forget the pick scrape screech
I'm about to make this episode of trt my entire personality.
Very excited to hear about the new templates.
Great stuff as always brother. Also I had no idea you used to work with Machine, that's so cool. Dude was one of my biggest influences as a producer when I was first starting
Brother that’s some straight up kublai khan love it.
I feel like on top of having their own fans, Thrown gets a toooonnn of streams being on Spotify radio for other insanely popular metal bands. I got Grayout every time I finished listening to the 2 Knocked Loose singles last year, and I let that shit play every time
My bottom lip nearly touched my nose listening to the final playback, absolute filth Nick ! 🤘

ultimate stankface
Your stuff is always so sick to watch man. I know the beauty of editing video is you can streamline the creative process but it's so nice to watch someone rip out creative stuff without getting caught up in the details before it's useful. Keep crushing it dude!!
Love to see some Thrown and Alpha Wolf praise. Those riffs just hit SO hard.
10:17 I’m helicopter limbs in the pit
THICC AF. This ended up sounding thiccer than a pixar mom 's fanart on reddit. Masterfully done.
Holy guacamole, this riff is so nasty! Also, that transition into 'that riff but slower' was so smooth and *THICK*
I honestly didn’t even noticed how big Thrown has gotten since I started listening to them. That’s crazy, but also extremely awesome!
Just as long as a thrown song too 😅
Wow! Powerful sound🔥
not trying to tell you what to do but a TRT where you write like loathe would be sick 🔥🔥

Glad my bday was on a Thursday bc I got thick riff Thursday today
THICCC - third C for extra thickness.
Gotta love those extra roomy, reverb-y snares. Instant stank face material
Thrown and Knocked Loose are my caveman spirit animals 🔥😤🔥
Mimic tear was nerfed because it was bonkers early on. Also this was sick.
100% have to continue this one in a future episode
Reminds me of the hills have eyes - The Acacia Strain

I need your drum bus chain right now! Sounds great.
Nothing hits harder than a hi hat breakdown
I thought the new Thick Riff Sessions were gonna be uploaded to spotify last week or so. I just came to comment this. Ill watch the video in a minute. Well, now ive been here for 30 seconds and i heard the riff youre going to play so ill stay.

That’s my bad 😅 I’ve been unexpectedly busy and haven’t been able to get all the tracks together in the time I was hoping but it will be up soon for sure!
Sounds like an extra heavy version of the chorus to Kittie's song Charlotte with some cool modern twists. Very cool, man.
Love it 🤙
YAYYYY more stuff like this please
man this is stupid stank feel good vibes. well done!
After bar 17 - would be cool with a D-beat part.
Wow😮
If you set the raw meat dumpling in your tool belt and summon the mimic tear, the mimic tear will eat it to heal 3 times per summon. The twist is that the mimic tear summon can’t get poisoned so it only heals itself without any negative status effect. He will live much longer. 👍🏻
good video! Would be nice to see you make more videos with hardcore bands inspiration in the future.
You should soooo write a riff/song in the style of Protest the Hero

I SECOND THIS
I also use Logic Pro and if ya wanna paste whatever you have highlighted to the next bars that are the same length in midi and or audio, it’s cmnd+R. This is for all the Logic Pro x users only
2-step CENTRAL
we neeeedd hm2 chainsaw tonesssss on this
dude thats sick lol
This indeed was disgustingly offensive I love it
I would love to see you tutorial your thought process behind dialing in a genrespecific tone but with only the genres YOU usually do. I have a weird habit of quadtracking with really dry-ish marshall/80's tone. Playing death/metal/core, I like it, but the band doesn't, and I totally get why. It's just, it makes me work a bit harder with the guitar, more gain feels like I'm cheating.
Awesome as usual. When's season two launching on Spotify?
boi wrote a got dang Splinters song lol
So the Mimic Tear has been nerfered a bit since release. It's still pretty decent once you have it fully upgraded, however in the lower levels its not as good from what I recall.
hey so, I'm really interested in the Metric Modulation you did. Can you explain what that is and how it's different from half time? Is that literally just half timing the cymbals in a set tempo for just a few bars or are you throwing them off half time at the 1 and 3 as opposed to the 2 and 4 beats?
8:11 tones and riffs like this makes me wonder why bass is not used for riffing more often in metal, it sounds so fucked up (in a good way). Take me Home by Knocked Loose has an intro bass riff which is just evil sounding
hell yea brother
That's really sick man! What's your mastering chain? I've seen you mentioning all the time :)
Music aside, The mimic tear does help a lot. If you max it out, it’s awesome and won’t die in 2 hits. Now, it won’t do everything for but it can create some openings. Which can be clutch especially if your build is brutal. Just my little two sense that are based on my experience.
Oh yesterday was Thursday 😩
Br00tal!
Holy heavy
I never clicked a video so fast. Alpha wolf goes hard tbh
Do a disfigured elegance style riff
Hell Yeah
Brother great video but I have to ask: what chair is that and how does to respond to long guitar playing/practice sessions
you gotta check out the band "Newcomer" they are sick.
Is this guy not one of the coolest people on the internet
Back on elden ring again for the dlc. Started over because I didn't have a damn clue where I was after 2 years 😅
I literally do the same thing with voice notes lol
nothing wrong about listening to too much Thrown
Hey nick (or anyone) have you noticed nameless x being a resource hog compared to nolly? I've been struggling to use it lately just because it's so much heavier to run.
Hope you have fun with Elden Ring man! DLCs out soon so I hope you finish the main game by then, definitely worth finishing!

@@nickbroomhallmusic Youre definitely close man! Some majorly cool bosses left still though! Enjoy!
Anyone have tips on how to lower latency in Logic outside of some of the obvious (plugin management, buffer size, freezing tracks, low latency mode.. etc) I am having an awful time time trying to record while using plugins as Nick does here and it is frustrating when you want to hear what you are doing.
8:00 mimic tear got nerfed a while ago lol
This is disguuuuusting, and i love it
Okay so I just gotta ask is this the Nick Broomhall from Cincy? Like, Manipulator right? Or am I just an idiot? 😅 Saw alpha wolf twice, seein em again this year, this riff is indeed Thicc in all the right places 🙌
reaper templates would be dope bro, I know it's not your DAW of choice... but it's my DAW of choice soooooo....
in the light of doom the dark ages coming out next year, you should do something inspired by mick gordon! (and petition to get nick on the new doom soundtrack.)
Is vol 2 out yet nick?
What ggd set has this snare?? And what’s the snare called?
fuck yea
Fuck I love caveman core
whens TRTS2 coming to spotify?
Whats your VST? Soldano?
Week 3 askinh for you to make a Riff in the style of Polaris and All that Remains
