This music video reminds me of that one joke: "75% of a Finnish park ranger's job is rescuing metal bands that get lost shooting music videos." Sick song. One of my top picks from the new album.

[@Arthemesia]

as I native american, I do not compute lol

[@russellzauner]

He's in Oregon, probably. Silver Falls or perhaps around the Multnomah Bridge In The Before Time Oregon is still As it Was in parts

[@kalma5003]

Would be funny if Finland had park rangers.

[@Arthemesia]

@@kalma5003 they do though

[@jasonday8334]

I’ve always wanted to go walking through a creepy ass forest and have Keith Merrow pop out and just start shredding.

[@Froffy_]

This is now my favourite progressive blackened doom photosynthesis death thrash song of 2019

[@Rob_KaBob]

A+ word structuring dude

[@denyworkout4234]

thrash is not included but It is an prog tech death orgasmic thing

[@replicantc.3708]

Aye, this is GROWING on me.. 🥴

[@deconline1320]

I also bring my electric guitar on camping trips.

[@alexm6312]

Never leave home without the axe.

[@jamesyellow3786]

It’s feeling could be hurt!

[@paulmerritt8593]

Me too. I Love playing out in the middle of nowhere out in nature. It's so inspiring and relaxing. It's like meditation. Just have to watch out for rain. I used to only bring the acoustic but I was missing my electric so much one time I decided to take my electric camping from there on. I need to get myself a drone to get some fantastic footage. At least I scare the bears away lol

[@varan9595]

anyway here's wonderwall with some distortion

[@mileshall5795]

🤣😅🤣 good man!! I do some of my best shredding in the woods around early Sept. In the MT Rockies...I am CHOPPIN SOME WOOD, BABY!!!🤘 Would bring a whole electrified band into the woods when I was younger🤣😅drums...the whole 9...I wanted to do a solo in a tree (stole the idea from a 'Darkest Hour' video from the time🤣😅)

[@kingbrutusxxvi]

It's been a journey watching Keith's hair grow all these years. Haha. ;-)

[@tedmerrow5217]

His grows, and mine falls out! 😡

[@aninfinitemindofmusicandreams]

Opeth meets Black Metal meets a little tech death Awesome work man.

Opeth had black metal since day one, junior.

[@vahansolo5778]

watches new Keith Merrow video, gets lost in the wilderness for 2 weeks.

[@RohannvanRensburg]

Man that main riff is just so strange -- the feel, tempo, timbre, rhythm. I can't stop listening to it, and as soon as I hear it it's stuck in my head for days. Also, you're one of the few forest-playing musicians that actually appears to plug in his guitar. Well done.

[@BullShark1579]

Is this a new song or album? I Google Keith and only 2 albums came up. This song isn't on either album

[@hyppyrotta71]

@@BullShark1579 This song is on his latest solo album

[@ShaunPrince]

@@BullShark1579 Keith's retrospecial album will blow your top. Then he also paired with Jeff Loomis to make Conquering Dystopia.

[@fredrikabramsson4659]

Honestly one of my favorite tracks of all time. Thank you for this.

[@snail415]

I’ve had this goddamn album in my head for two weeks. Awake, asleep, in the air, overseas, mowing the lawn, and fighting through traffic. All of it. That means it’s gotta be metal album of the year.

[@IvanDepetro.17]

Great composition and stunning visuals, l can't get enough of this album🤘

[@troysmithfr]

I knew that solo was Nick Johnston playing just by listening... guy's a monster.

[@renanmarchet9865]

Was about to comment and ask. You can tell it was the dude from the first few notes.

[@troysmithfr]

@@renanmarchet9865 Right! The phrasing and the tone gives it right away.

[@misterringer]

Can't get enough of this one. Wish I could give it more likes!

[@KRIMHDrummer]

Great video for a great fucking song!!!!

[@denholmcox9210]

Did you play drums on this one? I remember Keith at his clinic mentioning you did a couple on this album. Shit crushes, probably the fave on the album. Hard choice

[@stefankothe383]

Awesome

[@jeghamaymen]

keith doesn't like to repeat the same thing,keith always comes up with a completely new things,keith is awesome !!! Kepp it up Keith and everyone should follow keith !

[@JpVeO]

Nick Johnston is a fucking genius

[@AppaStappa]

This was my number listened to song of 2019 according to Spotify. Nastiest riff ever.

[@noxify5873]

I love playing along to this

[@nm-156]

Ahhh...I get to watch this beautiful video again 🖤

[@Ningishzidd4]

One of the best metal instrumentals ever created :tipmyhat:

[@BeastWolf11]

I need to say that I can't get enough of this album, it became one of my all-time favourites and I'm so happy thinking that this music will stay with me forever. Thank you so much Keith!

[@joelgillihan7825]

This is my favorite song from Reading the Bones. Also, epic drone shots Keith!

[@Epochstudios]

I absolutely despise when people say this sounds like "this" or sounds like "that" or sounds like "opeth". It sounds nothing like any of that shit, period!! What it sounds like is Keith Merrow! I don't fookin understand why people compare things. It's like, stfu and enjoy the awesome music Mr Merrow created. This whole record sounds like Keith, not one melody, riff, ambience, atmosphere or counter point sounds like anyone else. There, I've said my peace, keep up the killer work Keith, wish I could order a shirt. Ive got the tab book, CD amd digital download for this and the conquering dystopia stuff. Just need a Shirt to complete it all hahah. Hope your okay Keith, you've dropped off twitch, hope all is well and your just really busy.

[@MrCemcuk]

That solo though!!

[@xborg3236]

Love the Nick Johnston solo

[@dogh2o921]

Fresh. So much new metal all sounds the same. This is really good.

[@Ale-Desafinados]

My favourite from the album. So EPIC! and Nick's solo is sick. 👍 👍

[@696kir]

Amazing 🔥

[@NickGerotto]

Took me less than one second to recognize Nick's playing on the solo, his style fits perfectly the mood of the tune. Stunning work and awesome tone man!

[@RohannvanRensburg]

100%. Instant.

[@scoobybenguitars]

Jaw dropping!

[@redbeard9412]

Either towards three sisters or Detroit lake. Third guess is St.Helens area. Either way love the visuals. Always wanted to bring my guitar and amp and some power to play guitar in the woods. Stoked to see you still doing your think Keith. I've been following you from when I was is dire search of rhythm guitar idles when i was 16. Now almost 30 and your still killing it! You even sent me a free CD as we live in the same town years back and that statement through action meant a lot to me, Still have the envelope you sent it in somewhere.. Thanks for being someone to look up to in a world full of guitar soloist. We need more Keiths in the guitar world. " A solo is just erratic notes and scales without a the emotion of rhythm behind it. speak through chords. " Boomer-

[@Guithulhu]

The Mighty Merrow strikes a death blow with music mastery!

[@kevinberstler]

Keith is a beast! I love listening to his musical progressions.

Definitely one of the best modern rock guitar players around today. His ear and tone are exceptional. I listen to this driving to work in the a.m. Stoned of course😳😁☺☝

[@timothymckane6362]

I love that you including the ambient elements, and some Gregorian chants within this song.

[@qwanom]

A montage of the video took you a week or more. So unique footage. I love when the wind is moving the tree branches.

[@FabrizioCARENA]

every sound I hear is in favour of the composition, zero show off features, it is coherent front to back, the arrangement skill level clearly shows here, and so is its evocative power of describing a story through music.

[@jmckmedia6377]

This was epic man! Very cinematic and everything tied together so well. That shot at 4:10 was the game changer for me! 🤘🏻🍻

[@ArmanGrim]

Wow what an awesome clip man , I really enjoyed it🤟

sick

[@jaodae]
