Vai has since checked in with the following update:

"I so much enjoyed being invited to lay down some shapes on the new Polyphia track 'Ego Death' and to appear in the video. Tim and Scott are true innovators and it’s an honor to throw down with them. Their whole new record is a marvel of melody, extraordinary technique and power.
