Ken and Buzz are the last of a generation of true shredders who aren't total nerds. Unearth is so criminally underrated. Every album gets more technical and they've never lost the ability to write songs that actually go somewhere. Masters of going from 100 to 0 to 100 again. I can't listen to them driving, I learned that the expensive way.

[@SDF5150]

Watchers of Rule was just so awesome. They're due for another album.

[@mr.hydeyowyfe248]

theonlyegg hahahaha can't listen to em driving. I fucking love it. Sorry to hear about the costly wreck friend. Totally agree that this band is fucking underrated!

[@dudeguykidman]

Omfg that the most amazing comment regarding this band I have ever read. Scary accurate. “Criminally underrated”- so right. These two can shred with anyone and are so tight they look like marionettes playing these songs together, their mechanics are so in sync it’s just crazy. I feel bad for any metal fan who never got into them.

[@mr.hydeyowyfe248]

Matt Carney Who "got" into them? Their still around man.

[@dudeguykidman]

Nsd 0 *who hasn’t gotten into them. That’s what I meant my b

[@AshtonFitness]

It's IMPOSSIBLE not to bang your head at 1:47

[@Martin-jk2ng]

For me these guys are the modern Downing/Tipton or Murray/Smith. In sync and so great at complimenting one another. So underrated. I can't say enough good about them.

[@jimmygray4525]

Ken and Buzz are both awesome Metal guitar players.

[@beerinoculum]

Absolutely great riffs. Very very underrated band and guitarists!

[@cosmicsea89]

The originals! The progenitors of 7-string metal!

[@northtimo666]

slipknotsk8ter89 Korn would like to have a word with you or Steve Vai

[@metalheadblues]

@@northtimo666 cough *Jeff Loomis* cough

[@northtimo666]

metalheadblues Yeah but Korn and Steve Vai made 7-strings popular.

[@metalheadblues]

@@northtimo666 true. I play 7 string but I've never heard any via songs with the 7.

[@RolanTHUNDER]

That would be Head and Munky from KoRn mate. Yes I know they're described as "nu-metal" but they're still metal. Dino Cazares from Fear Factory also had his 7 string metal revelation around the same time as they did.

[@Thebassguru84]

Wow! These guys are so great together

[@guitarmanplayzloud936]

These guys play such insane guitar harmonies together!!

[@goldwrapper]

Best guitar duo in metal...Period.

[@definitelynotgore]

goldwrapper I'm assuming you haven't listened to Keith Merrow & Wes Hauch.

[@goldwrapper]

Much respect to them...I guess Unearth's style is the tie breaker for me...There's tons of others that are also in the conversation.

[@ethanbean5479]

I wouldnt consider that a true duo since they havent been playing together for over 10 years

[@dmavs41316]

Ethan Bean what? Oncoming Storm came out in 2004 and they've release other albums before that. It's been well over 10 years lol

[@ethanbean5479]

Peter Collier I was referring to Eddie's Guitars comment

[@Yonlawlawlaw]

They are the most magnificent duo ever in metalcore music, they get along so well in guitar playing, can't find a best duo. Maybe Dave Murray and Adrian Smith from Maiden, but these guys really do a very good noise

[@jeleopard]

Only complaint that Buz was a little too quiet, but damn do I love these dudes.

[@AnarchYAshAubrey]

literally my first thought 30 seconds into watching this.....good ear mate

[@chamechamberlain5937]

Love UNEARTH 💚

[@dekonstructing]

Been following these guys since 2003. I love their riffage ness Buz is incredible as a guitar player. I’ve met him few times he is so kind.

[@mauriciogarcia7818]

Great song.

[@theguy6941]

I’ve met ken before he showed a bunch of people fishman products at my music school he’s a really chill guy

[@skred6792]

Ken's solo is fn lit

[@consumedbydeceit5942]

Unearth one of my favorite bands up there with Megadeth(first 4 albums) Heavily underrated and glad I know of them

[@cgrind3000]

These guys are beasts

[@matthewws5694]

I miss these guys

[@k_dawg7475]

So fun to watch these guys play!

[@camerongrant9356]

Buzz’s tone is stellar 👍🏻

[@eriatarka1983]

SOOOO pumped for their new album.

[@HandofGod440]

Brilliant

[@glowskullsmedia1499]

Legends in shredder! Some to mention but this guys are extraordinary

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

Agreed!

[@Murf_Workshop]

That tone kills!!!!

[@tengkuelfira6090]

amazing....

[@Vitoaitz]

monster!!! love them!

[@urbexxx77]

2:51 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@chadsmith5440]

Frigging sweet

[@serber2143]

Super Duo , Bien cool !

[@chriskennedy7262]

it sounds so amazing and the harmonics are way more louder i cant wait to get my first guitar with fishman pickups next year :)

[@Mr.Goldbar]

I can actually hear the bass in metalcore song!

[@Bassman5000]

fucken sick. Yeah The Boys!

[@retrocny5625]

You can't help but bop your head during that little bridge/breakdown riff before the solo and at the end of the song. It's such a simple rhythm, but it just works. It's hard to go wrong with chunky down picking and that slide from the 3-5 to 5-7 power chord. Especially with a groovy drum beat behind it. Starts with a slow groove beat, and then bring in the double bass to match the tempo. It's not technical, it's not fancy...but it GROOVES and just sounds good for this style of metal. I've written so many similar riffs like this because it just always has that epic feel to it when you give it the proper rhythm and get the groove going. Another song I can think of where one of the main riffs is just those same 5th chord slides is Colony from In Flames, and that's a classic.

[@daniyakalta9092]

wow, nice!!

[@toemasmeems]

*thick boston accent with slight lisp* "when you listen to unearth and your driving...youre gonna get a speedin ticket" - some fat dude in an unearth DVD

[@wolfey4138]

I didn't realize that they are from MA, Salute!

[@GeorgeZimmermen]

That’s where the metal core scene blew up was Boston. Most of those bands all came outta there. Shadows fall, unearth, killswitch, all that remains etc.

[@Mr.Goldbar]

I think this band is kinda genius. Instead of tuning down a 6 string they just tuned up a 7 string, and I like it!

[@replicantc.3708]

You'd love All Shall Perish's earlish stuff.

[@RolanTHUNDER]

Oh I love this! Both their playing skills and their axes (especially Susi's) are great. I haven't gotten into Unearth but from what I hear (the music itself) I definitely dig it. My only concern is the quality of the singer's voice and screams which I haven't heard before...Describe his singing to me?

[@fortodaymark]

RolanTHUNDER Gritty and raw like they come from a visceral place where a lot of rage and anger reside. Trevor’s vox are not terribly versatile in range especially in high screams. Mids screams/yells to somewhat low growls.

[@anoceanbetweenus89]

It’s like a traditional hardcore scream but also modernized, a bit of a hybrid. Yes, at times it can get a bit stale but his vocals match the the music for it is.

[@franklineternal6527]

That's siccck

[@tonalblasphemy6879]

Those pick ups though. These guys are very tight.

[@diecast4556]

fuck yeah!!!

[@maribalam3154]

Sounds like Trevor Phipps is screaming from a bathroom!

[@Fosi94]

wtf lol

[@adamkahn8645]

I kind of liked buzzs sound more, what model fishman were in his?

[@octavarium2457]

share the kemper profiles

[@ThomannsGuitarsBasses]

I'm sure they won't do it ... :)

[@octavarium2457]

Thomann Music i know :)

[@alexlioce5942]

THIS LIFE! SOON WI COME TO AN END! I'LL LEAVE WITH MY CONVICTIONS!

[@jasonvai4951]

What gauge do they use for Drop B on 7string?

[@TrevorGray4758]

I just want you guys to know that you changed the metal scene. I’m a drummer but I always paid attention to your guitar because it was so fuckin rad. It stood out. But the whole band is just fucking ridiculous. So different than anything else.

[@sebastianhoppe1380]

Moin. Erstmal..klasse Video und weltklasse Gitarristen! Mal ne kleine Frage ans Thomann-Team...wisst ihr welches Plek Ken benutzt ?

[@glowskullsmedia1499]

These guys are jason becker and marty friedman in modern era... True artsy shredder

[@brendanking8796]

this tone is so nuts. what's the kemper profile of?

[@Fosi94]

2:27 Sounds fucking amazing.

[@Fosi94]

Still sounds amazing old me.

[@axslinger86]

2:12 Uhhh what the fuck did I just watch?? Dude is too good.

[@insertanynameyouwant5311]

honestly I like how they sound without vocals at all. Maybe that`s just because I don`t like metalcore\hardcore types of vocals

[@MatthiasBuesing]

Haha, that could have been my words ;-) Awesome riffs but the vocals suck (to me)

[@ThallFather]

Would love to know what profile that is.

[@dongdong8933]

Tuning???

[@randomrailing51]

Got sick of soloing off. Lol

[@Billyvergissdasnicht]

Either I’m deaf as hell or someone fucked up the mix. There is only one guitar sticking out, the other one is barely audible!

[@hoesnihoesni6867]

It is so unsual to have lead guitar player who has neater picking and more tight hand position. Usually its the rhythm guitar player.

[@chrisgarcia3443]

That sounds like August Burns Red...

[@Flux799]

Yeah kind of. Both bands started around the same time. Unearth always had more of a thrashier sound.

[@jamesonbliss242]

Ken can get a little sloppy l, stillamazing, but buz is a machine just flawless all the time!
