The boys initially became popular on YouTube for making guitar covers of hit songs, and their debut EP “Inspire” showed that they were mostly influenced by pop music. They still released three singles in 2019, entitled “Look but Don’t Touch” (featuring Lewis Grant), “Inferno” and “Brand New Day” (featuring Babymetal), but didn’t release any new songs in 20. The boys’ most recent LP came out in 2018, entitled “New Levels New Devils”, and because they haven’t released any LPs, EPs or albums since, there have been rumors circulating the internet claiming that the boys might have focused on other things, and could be disbanding. In the early 2018, the boys released the music video “G.O.A.T.”, which has amassed over 20 million views on YouTube, thus becoming their most popular song, and their music video “O.D.” followed, today numbering over five million views.Īlso in 2018, Polyphia released the music video “YAS”, which has been seen over 5.7 million times on YouTube. The year 2017 saw the release of their music video “LIT”, which has since become a hit on YouTube, having been watched over 4.2 million times. The boys also began collaborating with other artists, including Jason Richardson, Erick Hansei, Nick Johnston and Mateus Asato. Following these successes, they went on several national tours, and shared the stage with other metal and rock bands, such as August Burns Red, Between the Buried and Me, and Periphery.
In 2016, Polyphia released their second LP, “Renaissance”, and in 2017 their second EP came out, entitled “The Most Hated”. Their debut long play (LP) was released in 2014, entitled “Muse”, and was re-released in the following year.
Its music video has been watched over 3.2 million times on YouTube since 18 July 2013, and subsequently the boys were invited to play at various events around America. The year 2013 saw the release of their debut extended play (EP) “Inspire”, and its main single “Impassion” gained the band some popularity in the US. The boys released their demo “Resurrect” in 2011, and in 2012 released their second demo entitled “Bach Concerto No. Polyphia’s current members are Tim, Scott LePage, Clay Gober (bass guitar), and Clay Aeschliman (drums).
Lane left the band in 2012, while Brandon left in 2014, and was replaced by Randy Methe, but who quit a year later. The instrumental progressive rock band Polyphia was founded in 2010, by Lane Duskin (vocals), Tim and Scott LePage on guitars, and Brandon Burkhalter on drums. Tim matriculated in 2012, and hasn’t spoken of his further education, but it’s believed that he hasn’t attended college, but focused on his career as a musician. He attended a local high school, and was into various activities during his four years there, including appearing in school plays, playing soccer, and being a member of a school band. It's a pretty solid two-part combo to elicit continual exposure and publicity (in terms of ROI) given the investment made and the fact that the other three members of Polyphia legitimately do not do or contribute anything.A post shared by Polyphia went on to learn to play the bass guitar and the piano, but remained mostly focused on the guitar, which is still his favorite instrument. Polyphia (thanks to Henson) is one of the first bands that was created by social media, for social media, and has since maintained a forward-moving career via social media.Īfter enough mind-numbing repetition of continual exposure, we (forum users) begin talking like everyone else and regurgitating what we like or dislike about the band's music, the band's image, the band's choice of toiletries, etc.īecause the band's label and management developed a strategy to push the band in our faces all the time via constant 24/7 social media inundation, especially with Henson's visual persona on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, which he actively works to maintain 24/7 as well. Or at least, the band would not be as large (and constantly talked about) as they are. In all honesty, if social media went away, so would Polyphia.
