How To Play Born by NEVERMORE
I had a lot of fun shooting this video and thought you all would like to see it!
Links are coming soon so check back!

[@roborracle]

I miss Nevermore SO MUCH. RIP Warrel.

[@Croftysolo]

This Godless Endeavour is one of the best metal albums of all time, love these videos Jeff!

[@IgoRthethrasher]

Totally agree, and I said it many times.

[@PikkaBird]

It really was a milestone in my understanding of what "metal" can contain without getting overloaded with nonsense. It is heavy as fuck, melodic, brutal, calm, frenzied, virtuosic, simple, et cetera, but there's a thread running through the whole thing that ties it together perfectly. Plus, the riff at 5:53 in the title track is damn well the best riff that ever was!

[@Alexanderius]

Totally agree!

[@rpf23543]

ohhhhh yes!!!

[@USALeonHeart]

Best album of that decade in my opinion.

[@lucifer-ic9th]

Nevermore is one of the most underrated acts of all time. Thank you for all the phenomenal music you gave us.

[@replicated]

Thank you, Jesus.

[@RobKingRC]

Killer Riff’s Jeff , as usual!! I miss NEVERMORE!!! Rip Warrel🙏🏼

[@quitegenius]

It's so refreshing to see Jeff visit these old Nevermore songs! Loved Nevermore and love Jeff's playing but we have been starved of some awesome content. Glad to see some of these being played.

[@rickbrunet2559]

I miss the Nevermore years. Loved all those albums. Best is dead heart in a dead world!!!!!

[@the_shadow_realm5110]

Very melodic riff. Sounds like Devin Townsend when slow. Love the solo on this tune. So brutal and passionate. Great for a gym workout.

[@LeonTodd]

I was in my last year of high school when this came out and it melted my face off. The songs, production and playing has held up so well!

[@PHIllip324]

This was my first Nevermore song I ever heard ever. I'm so glad Jeff is doing this 15 years later since then.

[@JamesMaurer]

Same! I remember there was a video for it on some channel at the time.

[@SentientNr6]

That's how Born was born! Love it!

[@dickslap37]

Nevermore was such a great success because nobody was afraid of constructive criticism. It was a huge collaborative process.

[@keviniaquinto128]

Bought this signature 7 for my 24th birthday this year. Absolutely monstrous guitar. Performed the River Dragon Has Come, and a few other songs, as an opening act for my dad and it was a great time.

[@TheMack]

Cool! I really like the guitar as well, my first 7-string. Now I just need to get the chops up to play like Jeff =)

[@JonnyCrackers]

One of the sickest metal riffs of all time.

[@ModernDecay70]

Not just how to play it but the thought process behind HOW you came up with it is just as important, if not more important than learning the actual riff itself and is something rarely talked in most artist lessons. Born was my favorite track off the LP, but Dreaming Neon Black is one of my all time favorite albums. Also a huge fan of Andy and Sabbat. 🍻

[@USALeonHeart]

Dreaming Neon Black is an incredibly underrated album. A totally unique record.

[@hazardeur]

@@USALeonHeart it's one of the best metal record ever created, if not THE

[@GuitarLessonsInsideSyracuseNY]

That's an often overlooked detail with these videos. This is very important for everyone, especially beginners whom may of not learned much guitar yet... I know when I started. I fundamentally didn't understand this stuff and most guitarists who 'break down' their songs never go more depth beyond just playing it.

[@PabloJ1968]

Agree❤

[@OhChristopher]

Warrel Dane and Jeff Loomis! Will always treasure Nevermore! 🤘

[@Schwaaaang]

The riff that made my 13 year old self realise Jeff was the absolute king of the fretboard

[@syropian]

This was the first Nevermore song I ever heard, and it hooked me for a long time!

[@panagiotisexplorer213]

Hi Jeff, I saw you with Nevermore live in Athens Greece back in 2001 and 2003. Long live Nevermore 🤟🏻

[@broncoxy]

Absolutely love this riff, its so busy and futuristic, it almost sounds like a synthesizer section in some way...

[@MatthiasBuesing]

Man, I miss Nevermore....😢

[@BreathingTheory]

one of (if not the) greatest choruses ever written

[@endangeredreignofficial]

Wow what a great song and Jeff is one of the best guitarist and songwriters ever! Really hope he starts his own band one day! I know it probably gets old but a hired gun in Arch Enemy just doesn’t cut it for someone of his talent! He is honestly no exaggeration more talented than that entire band put together! I really miss his unique songwriting genius and I really don’t want to hear anymore instrumentals either Lol! I think he’d be surprised of the following he would get if he started his own band! Not only metal fans but you’ve got to realize every single guitar player who likes metal would buy his stuff blindly! I truly don’t believe Jeff realizes the impact his playing has had on people? Almost every metal guitar player I know mentions Jeff Loomis as either their favorite or top five guitarists!

[@alexstarovereem]

That's so awesome that Warrel helped you beef up that riff to what it became.

[@alinoe3604]

Jeff :) Greetings from Poland. You are the best, you have always been !!

[@Trevor.miller]

What a tone!!

[@sprEEEzy]

Jeff, you're my OG guitar hero!

[@kryptictao]

A true master of his craft. He has the technical ability to play fast and precise, but also the humbleness to listen to others and try to change things up. A true great.

[@angelinc7627]

Thanks for sharing your though process behind this riff Jeff! What a masterpiece it is!

[@arminwalland]

it's so cool to see new videos from you! thank you very much, you are one of my most favourite guitarists!

[@petewhitten3778]

Thanks Jeff , love this Riff. 🎸😎👍keep on Rocking 🎸😎👍

[@hisf5640]

This is so cool you started doing much more videos for youtube. Exited to see more of your stuff on any music topic!

[@dchakravarthy3254]

This video made me really happy. Thank you. So happy to see a recent resurgence in the Nevermore material online. Thank you.

[@brentsummers6296]

You're AMAZING Jeff! A true guitar LEGEND 🔥🤘

[@Golem29]

You're a legend Jeff, wishing you all the best and I hope we get more videos like this

[@steveniosi7583]

Thanks Jeff, that was awesome! Killer riff and tone!

[@availablelight999]

Absolutely love your playing and writing.

[@terryspaulding2000]

Thanks Jeff! You're playing and this album are a huge inspiration🤘

[@psevdonymo]

Thanks for all the crazy riffs and leads, Jeff. Opened a new world and helped my songwriting.

[@kimchi2780]

Jeff thank you for this so much!!!! The chorus has tripped me up for years!

[@robfreitas5953]

Great riff.. appreciate the revisit, and dig that you took the time to break it down more thoroughly.. 🤘

[@paulhanwetbe212]

This riff is so creative the whole song is badass. Born is the song that introduced me to nevermore and is one of my all time favorite metal song

[@Jester_Kang]

I learn so much from watching your videos. Thanks a lot!!!

[@DT-tq8ku]

Learned this back in 2008 and I still play it all the time. TGE is a timeless album.

[@dylankopff5062]

Loomy 1st day I heard you play I became a fan for life. That tone

[@ankebebe2329]

What cool lesson from the master himself🤘🙏🏻

[@McFangsworth]

The riffing you did ESPECIALLY on TGE is IMO some of the best metal riffing ever written. I love every second of it. Thank you for sharing your thought behind the riffs, and how we can attempt to learn them.

[@ChrisLT]

First Nevermore song I heard, and I couldn't wrap my head around it for a few listens. But the solo hit and I immediately became a super fan.

[@smnvox109]

The legend!! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@88WhiteChief]

Thanks a lot Jeff your riff is useful as a goal and as an exercise! 💪🤟🏾😁

[@ronnierazor4302]

Very cool! I like your work Jeff and thank you for explaining some of your licks

[@Metalsupremacist]

I find it refreshing that he's just showing everybody how to play it in standard tuning. On the recording it's a half step down (if you're wondering why it sounds terrible to play along with the record) [G#, E, C#, D#] if you wanna play along.

[@artemryapolov1476]

Please continue! It is so interesting to explore inner chemistry of Nevermore

[@user-vl6we2tl8b]

When I go to the show of Nevermore in Japan and saw your solo of this song, I was impressed and almost crying. This solo is very dramatic and perfect in melody and technique!! I love it!! I’m one of fun in Japan!!

[@jonborrmann3124]

Greatest metal guitarist making the greatest metal albums showing one of the greatest riffs of one of the greatest songs..🤘👏👏👏👏 Thank you for visiting your extensive catalog of greatness lately..

[@catch_this_mirage6564]

What a killing riff 😈. Love it 🤘🥰👌Thank you, Jeff 😊

[@GODElRigna]

Excellent. Love the explanation slowed down. Sounds amazing. Love it slow or fast. MORE NEVER

[@woodward_alan]

Thanks for this lesson!

[@AntonisKoumpari]

one of the best metal riffs of all time

[@vgm_composer]

You are the greatest metal guitarist in existence! God bless JEFF forever!

[@Yupppi]

I remember around 2008 my friend grinding this song a ton and then we went to Tuska festival to see Nevermore. What a great time that was. The song is also kickass.

[@x7stringinJSCx]

So great. Love that guitar too.

[@tnourse]

Amazing! 🤘🤘

[@valar245]

Gold. Will miss Nevermore till the end of my days.

[@syracuse6651]

Wow great chops man , and Awesome tone too . Crisp......

[@Jopeymessmusic]

The first time I heard of you was when you did an instructional piece for " The river dragon has come" for Guitar world magazine (Remember those, lol). But as a beginner guitar player it was very much out of my wheelhouse, fast forward a few years and I'm knee deep learning Death and Cynic tunes when I pick up a new release from a band I'd never heard of "This Godless endeavour" from a music shop that's closed down since. This song, opening that album, I was like "Holy shit". It's just fantastic playing and production from everyone involved. Thanks Mr Loomis.

[@viniciussiqueira1875]

"What tomorrow knows" live version have an awesome chorus riff as well! Thank you for the tips, when i studies some music i like to figure out how the composer done the part, how he thinked and this was very helpfull ( nice to have great musician friends to give you some ideias. RIP Warrel)

[@PROGNUT777]

Such a killer, catchy riff

[@cjc2611]

Thank God for convincing Jeff to add the most epic bridge of all time to the chorus.

[@chadwhitson1251]

Definitely hear a unchained influence in there 🤘🏻🤘🏻 awesome video Jeff

[@SlowToe]

Unreal 🤘🏽

[@inutropie9874]

One of the best riffs ever!!!🤘

[@SamBellGuitar]

I love this song/riff, very emotive chorus section! Jeff you're a legend! hope you're doing well!

[@ahileasvforv9709]

Im ready for the big come back Jeff...Please make it happen......

[@panagiotiskaroutas6859]

Awesome as always!

[@embracemydarkestfearband]

One of my favorite songs and fav Nevermore parts

[@moongloomable]

All of the new content is amazing.

[@szneka12]

You're my hero Jeff!

[@x6x745]

We love Loomis thanks for your insane riffsssss

[@florianbenz1295]

Please let it coming ! Exactly those lessons are ones that bring me further on ! Keep it up @Jeff Loomis ! Maybe you should consider playing in a band but bedroom.

[@gravychunks903]

It's still funny that this chorus riff is insanely harder than most metal solos. Thank you Jeff.

[@scottenosh4548]

DUDE! Thank you!!! FINALLY!!!

[@donaldduck5970]

thanks a lot Jeff ! One of my favourite songs

[@petew-berg7791]

Wow thanks Jeff!!

[@IStabz]

this is awesome!!

[@ar156]

Great to see this lesson, Jeff! Would you teach us "Next in line" in the future? First Nevermore song I ever heard, that string skipping riff blew me away

[@Volderkill]

Hell yes Born. The song that got me into Nevermore.

[@maximelepage5928]

This riff is so DOPE DOPE DOPE. Best riff ever.

[@mattsonrobbins281]

well I knew i was playing that wrong back in the day, cool to finally see it broken down!

[@michaell3105]

great riff. sounds really good slowed down

[@TheJMan1K]

Would love to have a series on playing some old Nevermore stuff it’d be pretty cool!

[@Angelopes]

Thanks Jeff! Great memories back in 2005!!

[@ChristofferKeizer]

Great riff, sir.

[@tnourse]

Your fingers are spiders! Or crabs! So amazing! 🤘🤘

[@yigitcem9893]

Love you jeff! Sorry for your loss. RIP Ben Woods

[@VideosOfDestruction]

Great song

[@WillVRam]

I Thank you so much in sharing the details of the song writing of this masterpiece. I always wonder how masterpieces like this are made but noone shares like you did here 2:37 hero

[@MegaDeox]

Fantastic lesson! I'd love to see many more like this for Nevermore or solo songs. One note: I think recording in 60 fps would be beneficial to the viewer.

[@jonyoung6503]

Amazing song!!! Hope you do tomorrow turned into yesterday.

[@torrezani]

Nevermore 🤘
