Sounds so sick!!!!

[@erickmazur807]

Misha Mansoor So says Bulb

[@TheSadistNat1on]

The invective is the first nice ampage I've ever bought. Everyone has the kemp or axe fx around me. I wanted them tubes; hopefully this will do it all for me.

[@1_rjc]

+Misha Mansoor hey Misha, any chance at releasing these in varied wattage? Perhaps a 50 watt version as well? I think that'd be a great move in the grand scheme of marketing

[@MishaMansoor]

You can run the amp at 60 watts!

[@hypahypahypa]

Sounds like "you can run this ferrari at 20 mph!" =)

[@Resartusgaming]

I don’t know who mixed this but it is absolutely phenomenal. The invective has such a rich and smooth mid and top end. And the drums sound huge too

[@KeithMerrow]

I did all the production for the audio and video myself. Thanks!

[@DC33879]

Setius86 I was gonna say, but the man himself beat me to it! Keith, your production skills and musicianship are truly inspiring!

[@googuser3145]

Keith well done as always Peavey: $3k CAD... because you made it in the US... FUCK YOUR HAT TC100 $2800CAD JP2C $3200CAD You're no where near worth it.... bugger off to china...

[@ernestopicazo189]

Keith Merrow you are like a magician of metal!! Thanks for all the work that you share with us!

[@carlosmuniz7637]

Keith, it is impressive the volume of the drums set, what is the the process you did in order to get such a huge sound in those drums without surpassing 0db in your mix?

[@celestialmonkey]

Wes Hauch is an absolute master of lead playing. Love his style so much

[@luthiervandros]

He’s in my top 5

[@littleredguitars2]

the mixture of brutality and clarity in this is pretty fucking impressive.

[@yantaran4757]

Good old Keith Merrow:)

[@Max_Payn3]

Wes's solo playing dear Jesus lord help me

[@jtcconquer9532]

Dude, I know, so impressive melodically

[@jtcconquer9532]

The nuisances that most people would miss

[@tromboneman4517]

Minton Branham, I think that might actually be Marty Friedman. Not to take anything away from Wes.

[@tromboneman4517]

I was incorrect. It was Wes playing a solo written by Marty Friedman for this song.

[@robertlawson1184]

Him and Jeff Loomis are my top two favrote metal lead guitarists.

[@maxcraigen7199]

Dude, you need to do an updated studio tour! The new space looks amazing

[@BaenaCarcosa]

This sounds so fantastic

[@petermaroney]

how are you on every video i see?

[@BaenaCarcosa]

Because I watch the same things you do, I guess ;)

[@illuddivinus3309]

Andrew Baena you giant kiss ass man lol. He’s a cool dude in real life, lives in newberg Oregon, met him twice. Let’s be real though, Keith is in love with Behemoth.. aren’t we all.

[@isaiahgrandt5305]

[@MetalHeadProductions]

Keith also bringing the massive mixes and great riffs. This was always my favorite off that first Alluvial record, feel so lucky to have seen them live.

[@mutantkoffee]

F00king dammit, the guitar, the tone, the playing, the riffs... thanks Keith for bringing this epic cosmic quantic thing to us, the mortals.

[@alreadyfuktup672]

Alluvial is the soundtrack to my dreams. waking and asleep. Thanks again Keith. Always so powerful (Guitar sound) and always inspires me to go pick my guitar up.

[@saltysteel3996]

Can't wait for the next Conquering Dystopia album! \m/,

[@2174863]

lol…

[@rudolfbartel6624]

The phrasing of wes hauch is on another level. I cant compare his level to any other guitar player

[@mrhamburgler480]

Fragile Art his technique is flawless too. very little wasted picking hand movement/energy

[@YashGadwal]

Mr Hamburgler exactly! Reminds me of another amazing player, Anton Svedin from Soreption. He has a pretty similar technique, and his playing is as immaculate as Wes'.

[@alecbernal3824]

Soreption is the shit.

[@DevoutionAura]

sadly Anton is no longer in soreption

[@jeffreyquinonez8964]

Locrian 995 the dynamics exotic note choices and the little nuances make all the difference in the world. Its what separated this guy from most shredders.😎👍

[@hYpYz]

ok Ive watched it again...wow...I hope they have paid you good money because im sold on everything ...amp, guitar, music...and that solo...I need to listen to Alluvial more...this video is such a treat, thank you

[@TylerSocholotuik]

All I could think during Wes' solos is "what the fuck is he doing?". And I mean that in a good way lol.

[@Urocosmos]

nosense, right? xD

[@boostuse]

I love my Invective! Best amp I have ever played.

[@ESPSJ]

Wes is right up there with the best. One of the best guitarists walking this Earth right now imo.

[@Metalbass10000]

I still don't understand why this amplifier is overlooked by a lot of people. Every time I've heard this amp and every time I played through this amp it was fucking great

[@300WINMAG360]

I don't get it either. I have this amp and I think it's great but it seems to get a lot of hate

[@sunnyb5409]

This made my day! Keith, I admire your composition and the ambience of the tone. Sick.

[@matttaylor1449]

Love the sound breakdown at the end.

[@TheVashnessItself99]

It's so sick how the riff at 0:50 is single picked but with the double bass it has this illusion of being a palm muted double picked part! I mean unless you've got an 8th note signle note chug thing going underneath, then that feeling would make sense. Just a testament to what drums can do.

[@santilo76]

glad to see you uploading new content, that tone is awesome!

[@MartinLink]

This is amazing as always. Enjoying your videos since day one!

[@markmansoor5645]

Wow Keith you are such an incredibly talented musician. And very underrated too

[@Rivalspin]

This track is so deep and so diverse on so many levels. The whole album is just so organic and has that dark vibe unlike anything I’ve ever heard

[@hbomb495]

Had to watch this twice as the first time I was just paying attention to the different angle shots of the studio. The second time to appreciate the song. Absolutely stellar on all counts, it’s not often we get content from Keith but when we do it’s top shelf quality. P.S. studio walkthrough vid plz :P

[@MartyDadRiffs]

It's really cool to hear Wes' isolated solo.

[@luthiervandros]

Keith just discovered you. Tremendous composition, performance, and production. You and Wes are fantastic together. He has tons of feel. That’s usually missing from the genre.

[@telecasteroil]

Good to see you doing well, sounds great , I like the master boost sound 👍

[@JJShalashaska]

The best musician to take as an example for songwriting skills and musical production

I want to congratulate you on your clean studio and effective lighting. I am very keen on 5:28 where I can see the LED lighting reaching out from behind the metal pegboards which are normally used for tools. One can rock or one can rock excellently. The choice is yours.
