Keith Merrow- Driftwood Purple Nightmare Amp Demo, Metal

[@AlexStarbard]

Oh man, that riff at 1:19 when the drums kick in. So sick

[@AkiraSpectrum]

Duncan has to make these alpha/omega pickups a regular production set asap.

[@JeffBarberDigideus]

1:12 - RIFF! that is all

[@anthonydamasco]

Want this tab!

[@ElephantWatchtower]

4:40 THAT RIFF!!! KEITH YOU ARE A RIFF MASTER!

[@JesusaurusRex666]

A wild Jeff Loomis appears.

[@Thelastofadyingbreed]

Oh definitely. He gets a lot of his from Loomis. And his riffs are fucking raw and mean!!!

[@Thelastofadyingbreed]

*a lot of his style

[@GodlessSuns]

Having been privileged enough to have had an hour or so play around with one of the beastly amps, i can say, hand on heart, it is by far one of the best amps i have ever played in my 25 years of guitar gear nerding :) Cleans = crystal clear and warm Crunch = from easy break up to good saturation Lead = well you just heard that played by Mr Merrow This thing has a Tube Screamer circuit built in and is usable on every channel, and is controlled by a foot switch. Sooo much versatility. £2600 with a cover and footswitch ($3700) Better get saving then :D

[@jessesmith490]

I love my km7. Thanks for creating a piece of art Keith!

[@awol1209]

He makes it look so easy and effortless, he is such an underrated player in addition to writing some of the sickest riffs and compositions.

[@metalfather8139]

This mix is so tight and well-balanced specially in the car sounds very professional Keith well done

[@JulianEmdon]

Brilliant new track from Merrow hidden in an amp demo.. Hey that rhymes!

[@tristaningram945]

No it really doesn't

[@MKRocker2012]

1:10 very Gojira-esque riff. Excellent playing!

[@AntonisKoumpari]

gojira's riffs are way more basic

[@MKRocker2012]

@@AntonisKoumpari Uh, no, not really.

[@firmans12]

@@AntonisKoumpari true

@@AntonisKoumpari No. If you even listened to their first 4 albums that is absolutely NOT true. Magma is different...

[@phantomofoaktown]

you write the most interesting riffs, you are a very inspiring muscian

[@kadinwisniewski6928]

Damn, this amp sounds sick, and a sweet song too. Also it continues to blow my mind how completely flawless Jeff's playing is, even when it's totally isolated, where any mistakes would become most apparent. But there are just none to be found.

[@Epochstudios]

What does Jeff's playing have to do with this video? Just curious 🤔

[@kadinwisniewski6928]

@@Epochstudios the solo at the very end of the video is played by Jeff Loomis.

[@Knosferatu]

I still come back to this. Everything about this video is perfection especially the camera work. The slight shaking adds to the epicness of the riffs.

[@wheresallthezombies]

its been crazy watching keith involve into what he is now

[@giorgossittas3749]

wheresallthezombies *evolve :P sorry.

[@wheresallthezombies]

lol yes evolve. my phone auto corrected it to involve lol. thanks

[@giorgossittas3749]

Lol, it's ok :d

[@LifeHawkeye]

Man Keith your rhythm technique is just insanely good brother. I can see why Jeff works with you and says he even has learned a lot from you. You rock Keith!

[@thomasvallee555]

So jealous that tone is amazing!!!!

[@DIVINECHAOS]

Amazing amps

[@evolution358]

WOW !!!! FInally !!!!!!! This Song gets a name "The Mirelands" ... Great Job Keith and Wes Hauch !! Splendid Album

[@VineMusic91]

We need some more !! Waiting for long time to see you make a video.

[@RVMdiscgolf]

The riff starting at 1:11 is just gorgeous.

[@Topofthelistvideos]

Just bought your KM-7, can't wait till it gets here!

[@paliccolo]

my dream amp! i started saving up, still plenty to go but soon i shall have some quality time with this amp

[@zxexrxox]

paliccolo let us know when you get it

[@wingsunfurl7030]

Did you get it yet?

[@godsreclamation2539]

lord have mercy, this tone gives me nightmares. must get this amp.

[@marcelschiborr9005]

This song is a masterpiece!!!

[@TheFatApache]

This song is fucking perfect. I can not wait for you to release what this becomes.

[@MetallicAciDD]

One of the sickest amps I've heard

[@Mammongorothkar]

I am so damn envious of your studio room man...

[@logik4264]

0:50-1:10 - reminds me CC's "From Skin to Liquid"

[@jrose92081]

so good to see more videos here lately.. You rule bro!!

[@paulkielt9301]

Two KT88s and two 6L6s... what a dangerous mix! I don't even imagine how to bias that kind of mess?

[@GStarGoku3]

cool amp, cool song, cool dude, will buy album thanks

[@rolandlemus203]

It would be cool to have a USB for a connection into the DAW....lOVE THE TONES on this rig!! Awesome!

[@zxexrxox]

Roland Lemus the nightmare mini has an emulated speaker out for recording

[@NickolaiDuddits]

Dude Keith these last few videos have been super duper heavy. Lovin' it my friend.

[@MichaelQuigley-fy5rc]

Sounds really good Keith.

[@mattmorgan7583]

Sane! That tone is incredible.

[@LorenzoCheckedOut]

Technical and percussive sound!!!

[@furlong08857]

Nice Mid response on that amp. It cuts through very good

[@GreenDefend]

Brilliant job Keith. Your job are welcome everytime for my ears.

[@DistortionChamber]

Keith been listening to your stuff for years, the arrival is one of my favorites its awesome to see you achieve such great heights. I have been working on stuff similar for years and this is probably one of my favorite tracks you have done! keep it up man.

[@MichaelnSusan_metal_mike]

cool sounding guitar and amp

[@sellaouisoufiane2639]

I just got an alpha/omega set, these pickups are killer and so worth it.

[@FergbotGames]

9:00 my god... melted my face off

[@haydengear7146]

so glad I brought this guitar! now.......if I could just play/tame it as well as this

[@Hellraiser7string]

your gear costs more than my life lol killer riffs as always!

[@RinseableToast]

your quality is so freaking good haha. and the home studio is looking super badass.

[@witchsabbath13]

Keith, can we get another solo album please and thanks?!

[@elevenAD]

great sounding amp and this song is killer new Conquering Dystopia!?

[@mikedawg2CDR]

god dam that thing sounds awesome.

[@GiuseppeNegri95]

Holy cow. It's amazing Keith.

[@Ruddi_SK]

4:40 rips my head off, woohooo that riff is a masterpiece, like the whole song

[@artreemusic2646]

simple but awesome riff :)

[@jacobramsey1677]

I so smell new Conquering Dystopia!!

[@wheelsdeal]

That is one killer song Keith!!

[@Sly.Therrin]

Very deep, lots of nice chewiness and harmonics. A really cool 'sordid' sound to the amp, if that makes sense.

[@SHREDTOKILL]

Finalllllly! More sick content!

[@drwingstcm]

Nice playing!

[@thebunn]

Those riffs dude.. So rad!

[@LegendaryK4]

That shred at the end tho!

Sometimes I forget how good he is.... filthy riffs.

[@TheDora422]

a Kemper Profile of that would be great ,Keith!

[@FracturedRealms]

amp sounds great and so does your playing!

[@mattman1127]

Absolutely nasty ass tone, I love it. Hoping those Alpha/Omega pups come in a 7 set someday...

[@EclipseAtDusk]

MyPenguinsFly I do believe it's been announced that they'll be available as a 7 string set, yes. Or perhaps I'm confusing that with there being a 7 string version of Mark's PRS, not sure

[@flips220]

MyPenguinsFly They will. Just give it time. Mark and SD have both informally hinted they'll be available in the future. The real question is if they'll ever make their way to being production models, or if they'll only ever be SD Custom Shop. edit: Keith is even playing the 7 set in this video. They exist. Now you just have to wait till they are made available to the public.

[@EclipseAtDusk]

Honestly tho 8 string set - when. Also DiMarzio needs to make 7 and 8 string sets of the Titan

[@rjsmith452]

They do you have to order them from the seymour duncan custom shop.

[@mattman1127]

***** Except you can't

[@musickman123]

That is an extremely sweet sound. I'm sure the pickups have something to do with that too. Very unique. And I love your riffage. Lol

[@cool28520]

Hope to be able to get this song soon, sounds fucking sick

[@Destroysall]

Seriously a dope song and great gear!

Keith's right hand is the machine gunner and his left is the assistant gunner selecting targets. Best rhythm player in metal IMO.

[@Stumpy801]

This track screams Wes hauch and Keith Merrow

[@titushefner1085]

Dan Stumpf odd. Seems like they made a band and did this song almost... I think they should call the band Alluvial.

Alright man...for the past 2-3 days, I've been watching videos on what to upgrade my pickups to from my current EMG 57/66. First it was the SeyDunc Distortion, to the BK Ragnaroks, to the Nazgul/Sentient's...but now, I stumble across the Alpha/Omega's...wtf.

[@jwspitz35]

Keith, pleeeeeease put up a tab of this for us regular geetarists. I got up to 4 minutes by ear but this shit gets so complex. Halp.
