Eeeyyy friend! You should know the Argentine band ,LOS ANTIGUOS songs likes "hecho a mi medida" ....;)

good lord that’s the most beautiful les paul i’ve ever seen

[@DoesItDoom]

Thanks. I feel that way too.

[@doomwizards]

Old Gibsons are hard to beat

[@Chuck5691]

It's fukin cool

[@the.gods.of.obliviousity]

One of the best debut albums from any band. Lifer is such a killer song, definitely one of my favourites of NOLA.

[@DoesItDoom]

One of the greatest albums of all time imo. 🤘🏻⚜️

[@the.gods.of.obliviousity]

@@DoesItDoom I can't argue with that

[@jacobjimmie7500]

I will go as far to say the best debut ever.

[@CaffeineHigh14]

Learned this whole album on guitar as a beginner. Made playing so damn fun

[@DoesItDoom]

Good call!

[@junkydawg]

We need it!!!!

[@cheekkeith74]

I've rocked this album on the PA in my basement to the point of blurring my vision and creating a breeze. Then moved to the other end of my basement to sit in a chair to take pulls off a bottle of beam for the rest of the album. Probably my favorite metal album of all time.

[@rawknbearbell7032]

I remember hearing this song almost 20 years ago and being blown away.

[@DoesItDoom]

Same. The entire album.

[@AndyMoore-t3s]

I bought it when it came out, almost 30 years ago. Time flies.

[@rawknbearbell7032]

@AndyMoore-t3s The more I think about it. It was closer to thirty years for me too. I was in college in 1996, Heard it then, I guess I didn't learn a lot of good math there, haha

[@soumickmitra1426]

This is the song that got me interested in a host of sludge metal bands. Also, glad to see the subscribers count growing on this channel!

[@DoesItDoom]

This is definitely one of the albums that got me into the entire genre. Thanks so much.

[@kamatsutra7031]

That's the video that I've been waiting for. So many great riffs on that album.

[@DoesItDoom]

The best. Enjoy!

[@IDGAF_PLUS]

Today is my birthday and first time wearing my Does It Doom? Iommic Life Complete shirt as I go vinyl shopping with the people responsible for turning me on to Sabbath. Love the shirt! Disgustingly, gnarly and wicked tone here Steve!

[@DoesItDoom]

Happy Birthday! Pickup some good vinyl!

[@mikerauter1859]

Killer lesson Steve from in my opinion Down's greatest work. That record has a magic they never recaptured.

[@DoesItDoom]

Nola is just such a masterpiece. Hard to ever do that twice.

[@CantonBruce]

This is always been of my “warm up” songs before jamming. Covers a lot of basics in guitar basics

What an incredible surprise on a Friday! I got my Baghdad, bower power and a Les Paul in C# let's goooooooooooo

[@DoesItDoom]

YES!! I want to hear it, send clips.

[@jww732]

@DoesItDoom I logged outta IG for a break. Will definitely share some eventually. Those lil fills and pentatonic things these guys do are such a signature thing to the sound. So much tasty stuff going on.

[@jasonwilliams7344]

Ahhhhh! I had to pull the trigger. What a glorious tone! Hey Steve, Jason from Sheavy. Just ordered one of the last 3 Bower Power ODs! Looking forward to putting it through its paces 🤘

[@DoesItDoom]

It rules, dude! Let me know what you think. I think you’re gonna love it.

[@LyntonDavies]

Yeah great lesson Steve,you're so good dude

[@DoesItDoom]

Thanks for watching, Lynton! Appreciate it man.

[@ScreamingLordStokes]

Nice one Steve. Been a while, i was getting worried about you! Awsome tone from that set up. Cool song, great lesson.

[@DoesItDoom]

Thanks for watching!

[@BassicAustinSludge]

10/10 Album!

[@joebush9756]

The Walpugis cranked up gives a pretty good Down like tone too imo 🤘

[@DoesItDoom]

Have to give that a try!

[@tonya4157]

As others have said, that Les Paul is awesome.

[@alexmatthews2332]

Over the under has some really bad ass songs as well, my favorite album to listen to all the way through.

[@DoesItDoom]

Yeah dude. I love Over The Under, too. Listened to that record nonstop for months when it dropped.

Enjoy brother!

[@1LouderSound]

I saw DOWN at The Palace in Hollywood when NOLA first came out. Stood right in front of the barricade the entire set. Then Kirk Windstein literally reached his hand out to me to give me his guitar pick. I still have his pick along with my other collection of rockstar picks.

[@jakeybball]

I play this song virtually every time I pick up a guitar, still had to watch for the tone and cover anyways!

[@DoesItDoom]

Thanks for watching!

[@Goya_11]

A bit unrelated, but i would love to hear that matamp gt1, one of my favourite bands, Horn of the Rgino, uses it and it has become my dream amp. So looking forward to your video 🤘

[@alexmatthews2332]

Man, i used to jam to a ton of these songs with my buddies is his parents basement theyre just fuckin good and a bad ass band thanks for this!!

[@DoesItDoom]

Yes! 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Down's debut is like OG Sabbath its that good absolute masterpiece.

[@DoesItDoom]

I'd have to agree.

[@NavelOrangeGazer]

@@DoesItDoom it's got a special place in my heart cause Down was my first ever club show and it was awesome.

[@crazyboyant79]

Would of liked to have seen the 2nd guitar part that comes just before the outro (lead part) great video none the less.

[@DoesItDoom]

[@AndyMoore-t3s]

How fortuitous, I listened to NOLA earlier today for the first time is in a looong while. Then this pops up.

[@DoesItDoom]

Perfect timing. ⚜️🤘🏻

[@adamsnow8554]

Cheers for the lesson Steve, just listened to some down today and came here looking for something to learn. Are Down always in C#? I was thinking of learning lysergik funeral procession too

[@DoesItDoom]

Lots of C# Std and some Drop B.

[@DoesItDoom]

That one has been requested often. We tabbed it out on Patreon on guitar and bass: www.patreon.com/posts/witch-seer-bass-58352805?Link&

[@JaredS-zf3hq]

Hey man, can you start doing demos for your pedals with less high end gear? Many of the pedals were based on the amps you play with etc. We could hear more out of the pedals with different/less expensive/gear to get a full idea of the sound. Thanks!

[@johnchristopher8530]

Awesome

[@DoesItDoom]

Thanks for watching.

[@isolateddemon9438]

SUCH A GREAT SONG.LONG LIVE THE NOLA SOUND👹

[@DoesItDoom]

One of the very best.

[@kevincarlson5894]

are you running the Bower Power into the Baghdad? sounds great BTW

[@DoesItDoom]

Yes. Bower Power > Baghdad > Carvin power amp.

[@youknowwhat8438]

Do you think you could maybe take a look at Methdrinker’s bass tone? Probably one of the best sludge bands to date and they don’t really get talked about too much. I can’t really find anything about their rig online. Mainly just trial and error with live videos to try and figure out their rigs.

[@amefta3972]

Awesome lesson, thank you! Could you please do Death Row by Pentagram next? :)

[@DoesItDoom]

That would be a fun one.

[@Harzurner]

What's the best Doom guitar pick? Standard Jazz iii?

[@PapaKeegs001]

Any budget pedal recommendations for Down tone?

[@DoesItDoom]

Ibanez Tube screamer or Boss SD-1 into a medium gain tube amp.

[@timt2202]

Don't know if you've done one yet but how about a Ironman(the band) video. Dudes tone was unique

[@kenny6920]

Do you modify your guitars to better fit those 12 gauge strings?

[@DoesItDoom]

Generally the nut slots need to be cut wider to accommodate the thicker strings. Otherwise it’s basic setup stuff: action, intonnation, neck relief.

[@kenny6920]

@@DoesItDoom thanks for the tip i've been having issue with going thicker on my little Ibanez gax 😅

[@DoesItDoom]

@@kenny6920what’s the issue?

[@kenny6920]

@@DoesItDoom just that the 12 gauges dont want to fit well on the nut or tuners its an entry level guitar so its understandable that its an issue

[@DoesItDoom]

Yeah, sometimes you need to drill out the tuning pegs as well, although usually not for a 56 gauge.

I remember seeing Down In Norfolk VA in 2007. I got a chance to meet Phil and he was so f’n cool. I told him NOLA sounds like the metal album Robert E Lee would’ve written. He said “brother that’s a compliment I’ll never forget! Thank you!”

Would love to see you tackle the Boss Katana. Stuck in an apartment so I picked up a Gen 3 and I've got some crazy tones going in the tone studio, even out of the box it's great. Sounds and behaves pretty organically, I've got it close to my old Rocker 30
