The chorus riff is one of the best things Jeff has ever written. Always been fascinated by it

[@SUPERSCUMDK]

One of the best metal riffs ever!

The Best riff that Jeff Loomis has composed

This was awesome. More Loomis please!

Jeff Loomis is the best rhythm AND lead guitar player alive. Please bring more of this legend!

[@TheCyberMantis]

He is way up there, no doubt. But Michael ROMEO is #1.

[@UltraBluesRocker]

[@ManuSDP]

RIP Warrel

[@andrewz.3432]

I know what you mean brother. I met Warrel Dane, seriously he was the nicest, most down to earth and respectful guy ever and on top of that an elite legendary metal vocalist. Now he's resting with the gods and jamming with Alexi Lahio from Children of Bodom. RIP.🤘

[@dreadveil]

Imagine actually writing a vocal melody with a harmony over that crazy arpeggio riff haha. Rest in Power, Warrel

[@sebastiandrozd18]

When I was younger I considered Jeff the god of solo guitar, but now listening to nevermore after so many years, Jeff is not only the king of solos but riffs as well. Literally every riff this guy has made is gold and NO band has come even close in my opinion. A true musician , and a wonderful human being. My dream is to meet this man in person and bow on the floor before him lbs.

[@demollyon]

This Godless Endeavor is one of the best metal albums of all time. It's sad that they split and Warrel Dane died so young.

[@ShreddyKuder]

Man, I miss Nevermore more with each passing year. Would kill for Jeff Loomis to pick up a killer power or death metal vocalist and start up another project that's actually his brainchild and full of his riffs. Someone hook this dude up with Morean from Alkaloid or something.

[@lemniscatusofficial]

Honestly it's been so long since hearing loomis absolutely unleashef

[@WardenOfTerra]

Warrel Dane was never a power metal vocalist. He was a theatrical performance artist, which is what gave him a uniqueness. In my opinion, he was the most unique metal vocalist to ever live.

[@NunoRomeo]

It was Jeff and more importantly Warrel Dane that made Nevermore Nevermore. He could do wide operatic vocals that I haven't heard from any other band yet. Evergrey(Tom) is also different in this regard along with Orphaned Land(Kobi). These bands all have respected vocalists that distinguish them from the others in their genre.

[@roachzero2952]

Jeff is a living LEGEND !! I love literally everything this guy creates . Never short of amazing .

[@Hell_Inc]

Jeff is an absolute legend!

[@danielehartmann2787]

In slow speed it REEAAALY reminds me of "older" devin townsend stuff like earth day, suicide, deadhead and songs like that. Crazy. Heard born nearly 1000 times in my life, as nevermore (and warrel dane related stuff) is my favorite band(s) and never noticed that.

[@vidmohit4684]

This riff gave me chills the first time I heard it. I love the melody

[@Jo-id9zm]

Man, Loomis is still one of my favourite guitars ever. And a super down to earth guy.

[@dryzd]

I need MOAR Jeff Loomis on KZbin!

[@DomicidalCovers]

I'm a simple man. I see Loomis, I click.

[@Bad_Phil]

Such a great arpeggiated sequence… astounding how he does it so cleanly and without glitches!

[@jackkosto]

Bringing signature artists on to the show is the BEST way to share knowledge. Best places to learn from are the people out there doing the thing we all want to be doing!

[@daveprimmett7429]

Very cool, loved seeing Jeff...More like this please!

[@cjc2611]

Bring me more loomis. Always.

[@h20doctor]

I've known Jeff for many many years and it's such a cool thing that he still Jeff he hasn't changed he's still the same guy love you buddy

[@Ben86511]

I remember being blown away when I first heard this song. Still a great one!

[@chickenbone1014]

Real question is when is Jackson going to release that guitar!?

[@joeymusic]

Your guess is as good as mine lol -Miami

[@BlackZar84]

I think that may be a custom shop made specifically for Jeff. Although it does look like his signature a lot. Damn that thing is sexy!!!!

[@DrScrambles]

Didn't Jeff leave Jackson a couple years back because he wanted to play more of his guitar collection live and couldn't because he had to play Jacksons live because of his endorsement?

[@9hk38f]

@@DrScrambles He just recently switched to Jackson, from Shecter.

[@DrScrambles]

@@9hk38f oh shit you're right, I already completely forgot he was with schecter haha I guess I've always thought of him as a jackson player from his earlier days

[@SylverANGL]

Interesting stuff on the picking hand. "Sped up just a little bit" 1:27 Down Up Down, Down Up Down on the descending notes across 3 strings, then Down Down (double down) at the beginning of the scalar stuff. Just play that part at 0.25x speed and look patiently. Same thing at full speed at 1:55. Double Down at ~125 BPM 16th notes is impressive, plus sounds pretty good and clean imo. Album is 127 BPM

[@JonYadonJr]

Awesome!!! Thanks Jeff and JST Team! 'Born' is such an an amazing song! :-)

Jeff is simply the greatest guitarist of all time - at least for me. I truly hope he will release soon another solo album.

[@firewalker1990]

MORE LOOMIS MORE LOOMIS !

[@LifeHawkeye]

Dude, you’re a lefty guitarist like me!! You know my struggle lol…we go into guitar shops and if they even have a lefty in the store it’s some dusty fender squire kept in the back room behind the cleaning supplies 😂. In my 33 years of guitar playing, I’ve probably only gotten to physically play on maybe 20 or so lefty guitars. I’m loving the channel especially the bits with Jeff Loomis. One of my all time favorite guitar players. Glad to see you recognizing his genius as well my friend. I am subscribed!

[@shredmonster76]

This is a killer picking exercise at tempo, I've been using it since the album came out. This really forces you to focus on muting and precise picking.

[@the_video_word]

1:51 - "and, up to speed"... Dude - us mortals already struggled long enough with the slowed down versions! :'D

[@TightyWhities94]

...and it is not even up to FULL speed. it's around 90%. i don't think even he can play it in full speed anymore due to age.

Jeff Loomis in Arch Enemy is like an insult to his skill.

[@mammontustado9680]

Agreed! Same when they got that chick with blue hair. Complete waste of talent that band is. Overrated too.

[@holgerhahn8615]

Well, he liked their music already before he joined, and I guess it´s up to him if he likes it and plays with them or not.

[@FartSmucker]

I've always hated that band, when i saw he went there i felt the same way.

[@emperorbraphomet]

@@mammontustado9680 I mean. Every member of that band aside from their singers have been elite in their profession. It really would make sense to have him in that band….even though he only contributes solos. Niggas really be sleeping on Arch Enemy in general. Blame the blue hair chick…

It's a job and a paycheck and he's even said as much.

im all about anything from Loomis. bring it on. guess ill have to buy a 7 string lol btw nice telecaster miami.

[@joeymusic]

Haha thanks Robert! It’s so annoying being lefty when you run a studio because all of my nice guitars are right handed for people to play. This tele gets me by but I need a nice 7. Maybe that Jason richardson model. Jeff’s latest model doesn’t come in lefty I think😩 -Miami

[@nemoatkins7328]

@@joeymusic Know this is a bit late, but have you considered doing what Hendrix did and just restringing and setting up a right handed guitar so it suits being a lefty? If there are reasons why you've not done this, that's fair enough (I'm a righty and not hugely familiar with the details of guitar construction, so there is almost certainly stuff I'm not aware of about doing this), just was wondering if you've ever considered that idea?

[@markcrisostomo108]

Loomis! He's probably one of the best modern guitar players on the planet. Cool stuff!

Yes especially if it comes with tabs and a slowed down version with technique told
