Bro improv’ing over that ad was legendary.

[@victorfreire3560]

"Haven't played this song in... eleven years" And nails it spot-on. Maximum respect, dear Sir!

[@terrinpeterson9899]

Some minor details he definitely missed but he still filled them in with professionalism nevertheless, just jamming it up. 🤘

[@margaridacosta270]

Dane/Loomis one of the most underated duo's in the history of rock/metal. R.I.P Warrel.

[@lordberly]

Loomis backing vocals is sick tho

[@margaridacosta270]

@naturalcreature6317 zeppelin.

[@margaridacosta270]

@naturalcreature6317 overrated?vocalist,guitarrist,drummer are easily on the top 10 ever.

[@andygillion]

Haha, that ad improv. what a legend.

[@davidclay8037]

RIP Warrel sure do miss that voice 😢

[@sigiligus]

I can’t stand his voice.

[@bosco_bosco]

​@@sigiligus Is he the bloody horrendous nevermore singer bleating about dragons and shizz

[@EgorKlenov]

I must say that RTX 5090 in the background sounds good

[@leftadrift3920]

The Jeff loomis is a beast of a guitar player!

[@johnmaddox1712]

when he is shredding at the beginning on low gain so cleanly, and then is ripping it in d major out of no where like he’s a beast

[@leftadrift3920]

@@johnmaddox1712yes he has a specific style, the way he shreds and the way he composes his music. Always intriguing!

[@kostasskrompolas]

Jeff Loomis is a LEGEND

[@u.v.s.5583]

undisputed :)

[@pedroalvesfission2610]

Came for The River Dragon, staying for more ad jingle improv.

[@adamdurnford6514]

Jeff Loomis is a fantastic guitarist. Bought my first seven string because of him

[@TheDivineCosmos]

Same here my dude. Must. Learn. Nevermore.

[@GeorgeZimmermen]

@@TheDivineCosmos same. Back in 2011. I listened to tons of 7 string bands back then, but he was the guy who made me want to get one

[@petew-berg7791]

Same

[@ricardocivil515]

me too, at first i was listening to dream theater but it didnt got me in the 7 strings yet , i rememeber saying like naaah doesnt sound that much better than six, but with nevermore i was blown away but the depth of the sound and the fact that they really highlighted the fact that is a 7 strings

[@FreddyGaming]

I bought my first 5-6 7string because of him :)

[@rbmfittipaldi1042]

The guitar tones in this album are great.

[@kashy490]

Bittersweet, yeah its pretty wild to hear this song performed in 2022 by one of the original members. We need more videos on this channel

[@thefreezezone4583]

LONG LIVE THE DAYS OF NEVERMORE! RIP WD!

[@michelsen2297]

I miss Nevermore a lot. Songs, riffs, guitar tone, vocals.... Everything is so good.

[@PabloJ1968]

Drumming was great too. Van Williams was a beast.

[@ShrobsImprov]

Its awesome you are keeping these tunes relevant. Nevermore is timeless metal.

[@CrackaDon1]

THERE'Z ZEPPELIN N THEN THERE'S NEVERMORE 💯✌️. 👀 MY COMEDY N YESHUA CHRIST VIDEO

[@xeroblade012]

Lol the jam from the ad. He did mention before about playing through ad jingles when he was starting out.

[@manuelhernandez2017]

Yes! Coffee with ola

[@nomadr1349]

I see on the banner behind a writing "rosengarten Mannheim". Damn, I should have missed it, fuck! But - first of all as I've heard this voice in the background of the record, I could not help but to lose a tear for one of the best voices in metal of all times...

[@marcusfilipearnoni9999]

That was mindblowing. How i miss nevermore...

[@KyleDanielson42]

One of the greatest Metal songs of all time. Love seeing Jeff play this.

[@SanityBurnz]

Something about those Jackson's sound raw as hell! I love it!

[@psyborg4706]

It's all Jeff. His pick attack, clarity, and tone transcends the instrument he's playing.

[@SanityBurnz]

I absolutely agree, I do hear something a little more gridy with the Jackson's over the schecters though. Even though I love the loomis schecters, I can hear a more raw tone when he plays the Jackson's. Maybe more transparency? Idk. But he's definitely got his attack and ear down!

[@gringochucha]

I friggin hate it 😅 Wish he'd go back to Schecter...

[@potatolew4495]

It is the new signature pedal he came out with, really cool 4 cable pedal with distortion, reverb and delay all in one.

[@5150serg]

I think the gritty guitar tone in this video has more to do with the amp. A Dr. Z I think. Not exactly a high gain amp.

[@insightguitars]

Jeff technique is flawless, his tone is so clear. I love his palm muting and attack combination, very nice.

[@michael4591]

Jeff you are the best. I hope to see you in a cool band again that uses all your talent

[@flashen]

Mighty Jeff... I can't wait to listen solo album and waiting a announcement from you... All hail Jeff ❤️🤟🏻

[@Jay-sy5yf]

Guys, this is what years upon years of day in, day out on the grind will yield. The man is a master.

[@peevee605]

The genius of Jeff Loomis is unsurpassed.

[@viivic.9136]

Please Jeff, give us the 3rd solo album, and make it epic like the first 2

[@leonidaspapanikolaou3165]

Without any doubt one of the best guitarists in metal. Jeff needs to join a bigger band than Arch Enemy, a band that will fully allow his talent to show.

[@metalheadblues]

He needs to do another solo album

[@willvaughn6.395]

Arch enemy is pretty dam big for a metal band And the entire band is crazy technically

[@vethwynwetfeather]

This song right here! So huge. #RIPWarrel 💔🤘

[@BurtReynoldsMetal]

You rule Jeff Loomis

[@alessao2]

Brazilian here !!! ❤

[@henrikschaller8584]

It was fantastic seeing you! Such a great time!!❤️

[@jesus4pincho]

Your video deserved to be uploaded by the master

[@ravelitschimo]

R.I.P. Warrel Dane. Nice guitar-wor as always. Thank you Jeff

[@pantera89]

In a guitar battle, my money would be on Jeff Loomis, this man can fucking play! \m/

[@DreDawg3000]

Jeff is such an amazing player. I wish Michael would actually write songs with him.

[@A_Final_Hit]

Agreed. Jeff is being completely wasted in Arch Enemy.

[@KP-vr6ft]

That could just be the agreement. Paying the bills not always so glamourous

[@jayearley5671]

I'd like to see Jeff properly incorporated, too. It's like watching Michele Luppi join Whitesnake to do backing vocals.

[@chrisking6695]

What are you guys going on about? Jeff and Michael both work on riffs and solos. Micheak when said in an interview that they exchange riff ideas. Also, arch enemy isn't Jeff Loomis. It's arch enemy. It's a business. And if you produce for that business you want to produce the style they're known for. If Micheal gave Loomis free reign then arch enemy would become a second nevermore. You guys are incredibly irritating.

[@chrisking6695]

@@jayearley5671 How the fuck is he not incorporated? Wtf? He's a full member of the band.

[@adiecummingsshredguitar9306]

My favorite guitarist since this godless endeavor

[@thomasshredster4627]

The fact that he shredded over the ad is so awesome hhh

[@danialakabani2771]

The stage dragon has come!

[@jswazz9264]

We can see, and hear the great sense of adulation in this video that you have for your work in Nevermore. It feels good to see you playing and enjoying it.

[@ZeeEm1991Gr]

Not played in eleven years, executed almost perfectly with only a few minor slip-ups... WHAT? That advert playthrough at the beginning tho 🤣

[@anpunefru]

Shredding comercial🤘🏻 I am trying to learn that one but as I suck it will take ages 🤪😂🤣 though I can play the intro 🤣🥳

[@Killthesefears]

So insanely good sounding

[@despot666]

Saw Nevermore on the dead heart tour in 2001 with Opeth, who were on their Blackwater Park tour. Hardly gets any better than that does it?

[@mervinmoshenko5188]

Hi kids not being critical of anyone here,but in the last 5-6 years I have talked to quite a few young players male&female in music stores who have discovered Mr Loomis and love the band & him.Have good one folks.

[@dresall783]

This is still as good as when I was in high school. A slapper with riffs on top of riffs. 🔥🔥🔥

[@mega_woingenau_ex_in_fulla2104]

I was seeing you with Nevermore on the 11th of March 2011 in Munich. Because of your unique and excellent guitar style it was one of the best live performances I ever saw. Your guitar playing accompanied my life now than for more than 1,5 decades and i honestly hope you get the chance to show this style again, because it is one of the best in existence.

[@LowdenFTW]

More footage from this please! So badass! I’ll take any new vids of Jeff whenever I can 😭

[@ScreamerpipeL337]

Gives much appreciation to the demanding work heavy metal can pose at times. The isolated track is pretty super duper heavy

Legend. I love Warrel (RIP) but if they could find someone to replace him, I’m all ears. They don’t even have to write new stuff (Warrel is a lyrical genius) but to tour again would be amazing.

Without Warrel no new mucis,make a farewell tour?maybe....

"I haven't played this in eleven years" 2 secs later, proceeds to rip through like a chainsaw. Ridiculousness

[@JonHenrique97]

He said that he haven't played this in eleven years, but he might did this every single day for eleven years before. And the guitar parts he also recorded. So, think about that. Hahaha

[@misterringer]

Hell yeah

[@PauleraCast]

Lenda! 🇧🇷🤘

[@adamanderson8838]

Damn Jeff!! So cool watching you riff out one of my many favorites of yours. That solo has such a great feel where I’m falling & falling, then my wings spread as I hover over the river dragon seeing its destructive path from an intimate aerial view. I never learned all the rhythm parts to this song & of course not the solo but I have made it up to the solo.😜 the intro is so cool. Very creative brother. Grateful I met you years back with Keith in Mesa AZ on your Conquering Dystopia tour. Thank you for all the amazing music brother. Cheers man 🍻

[@IamMichaellucifer13]

Thanks Jeff, your guitar work is absolutely amazing, it was kick ass when you were in Experiment Fear.

[@brianthurber1200]

Awe. My favorite song by Nevermore. Wish they would reform and find a singer that sounds similar to Warrel. I know there is no replacing the best singer of all time!!! But still these songs need to be played again!!! Miss Nevermore and Warrel so much . I was there at the memorial for him . The guy that sings for Sanctuary now does an amazing job and I think he would nail the Nevermore stuff too. Would love to see Van behind the skins again. It’s been so long. Anyone out there knows that Jeff is doing the Arch Enemy gig for a paycheck and that’s fine . Nothing against that band !!! I just know many like me want to see Jeff doing something else because that’s not his band!!! Much love ❤️ and respect Jeff. One of the most humble and awesome guys I’ve ever met!!!!

[@Juliankb39]

Rob from solitude aeturnus would be fuckin amazing with them if he's still capable of doing so at his age.

[@gringochucha]

Yeah man, I would definitely have mixed feeling about a reunion because Warrel's voice and presence were so unique, but on the other hand, I never got to see them live and those songs deserve to be played, so I'd definitely go see any kind of tribute/revival. I really don't think Jeff has any interest though. We'll see...

Uhh !! Now Jeff is playing a Jackson ? WTF I switched to Schecter after hearing Jeff for the first time. He was Jamming with Keith Merrow. He's bada$$ too. I'd be in vocalist/bassist heaven to have Jeff or Keith as guitarist in my band.
