[vidaflag]

You are the man!!!True Inspiration!!! well done keith marrow!:)

[lcyns91]

KAKO POLIVA!!!!!111111

[DirtyPoopers]

@VincentFinn Parlez-vous français? J'ai pris des cours de français, ainsi que Google translate fonctionne bien

[VincentFinn]

@DirtyPoopers unfortunately I do not speak French, but I wanted it. Where are you from??

[DirtyPoopers]

@VincentFinn Texas

[MrFenzyBastard]

t'est un nerveux !!! je reprends ma gratte et j'essaie !! merci, pour tes tabs et tes mp3

[Fuzorz]

great, each song is interesting, riffs don't repeat..very cool =D looking forward to writing about this guy on my metal blog

[VtbHawk]

You're such an inspiration.

[MercilessShred]

Crowbar shirt... no wonder you riff so damn well.

[EsotericParadigm]

is this also 4/4?

[Blader999]

Dude, please tell me all about your recording software. I'm in love *__*

[g4yb0mb]

@Blader999 Holy. Shit. That was precisely my question. Yes, do enlighten those of us beneath you Keith.

[TheHarmont]

Too many highs for me. But very cool all in all.

[AlvaI2ez]

Mike Akerfeldt and Keith Merrow would be sick!!!!

[AlvaI2ez]

@AlvaI2ez Lets try this again....Mike Akerfeldt!!! and Keith Merrow, AND Jeff Loomis working on the same album would be sick!!

[IxMxExTxAxLxLxIxCA]

Easily my favorite out of all your songs

[Andre83925]

MASTERPIECE!!!!! :D (Y)

[ms20tube]

nice



[LeviathanHatred]

Trevaland is a pretty good example of why bands usually have a rhythm and a lead guitarist. His rhythms are nothing but generic shit. Come on, now... Only Jeff can do both.

[guitarguy2691]

really nice stuff on your channel, keith, keep it up!

i just read, that you own the fractal audio axe fx. do you use it to record directly into your pc?

[Jshnizzoor]

Watching a ton of this dudes videos and drawing up a band logo. Fuckin sweet.

[averivera]

man, you are great!!! what is more important here is the creativity you have to do all the music you do!! just amazing!

[onerebelstar]

Im stuck between a 7 string Agile guitar and a Schecter BlackJack ATX C-7 Aged white. and im not sure which one to go with , im not sure about the agiles cause i haven't seen many reviews about them. but i hear thier really good. i love play Periphery/Bulb and progressive metal. and trying to figure out which one i need . Any help?

[Ablithealbino]

ugh my god- why arent you famous?! just want to steal your hands and make the billions you deserve..

[soadilias]

What brand is this guitar?where can i find it?

[munruthel1]

where can I get an agile :(

[XxXapocolypseXxX]

hate to be the noob, but what is the blue behind the bridge?



[xthepatient]

@XxXapocolypseXxX i'm assuming it's some kind of foam. i usually keep some on my headstock above the bridge. it's amazing how much it can cancel out a lot of weird noises.

[XxXapocolypseXxX]

@xthepatient i will have to try that.

[TheTalkerify]

Hey dude nice riffs! i have a question, is your tuning in drop A?? or even lower? but anyways nice playing dude!

[ilikemeatification]

i think this one shoulda been played on the darth vader guitar just because of that intro :P

[lappiolu]

BROKEN HEAD RIFFS VERY VERY GOOOOOD OR GOD GUITAR METAL PLAYER....COMPLIMENTS FROM ITALIA

[b3nf1tzg3ra1d]

This guy and Jeff Loomis need to do more than just a one song collaboration and form a brand new band. I would be completely sold and would be one of the best metal bands of all time, as far as I'm concerned.

[IPushHard]

@b3nf1tzg3ra1d

Agree 100%. The pioneers of a new shred universe. I'm not even a metal guy (much...) and I'd buy it.

[Xxd3cayxX]

@b3nf1tzg3ra1d Dude, I agree. They seem like the perfect combination. I could only imagine of the sick, twisted melodies these guys could spew out at the studio!

[Fluffypopcicle]

HEAVY!!!

[ccccarla]

Badass

[blackened247]

Crowbar!!! haha

[TheCommonDelusion]

This was the first song of KM I ever heard.. and I just love his work..

Really epic musician

[MrAdammassacre]

nice! fucking diggin it bro LOVE the shirt \m/

[Thowx]

let's groove MF! =D.. awesome

[MilitantOldLady]

This song sounds in parts exactly like the music from the first two Fallout games, i love it!

[c0d3x001]

i find lots of melody here :D

[TheHellraiserc7]

It's cool to see guitarist like you who are showing incredible rhythm skills and really good riffs instead of shredding out of nowhere!

[artizhan]

Dude....you, sir, can write a motherfucking riff.

[Kbeavsisn65]

2:30

I was physically propelled from my seat

[ravoid36]

Really liked it. Great work

[RingoFreakingStarr]

Did you really get a .009 to go to F? I have an .008 that I cannot get up that high without it snapping

[guitarsehole]

You ave an amazing feel for groove. Such relaxed yet powerful riffing!

[Cra5hnatural]

50th time i hear this today...

[BlazeInTheMazeOfLife]

Getting stoned + listening to this ='s Yes we can. This is the only kind of music I like now a days. People with their own creative bubbles untainted by the big business companies. Keep it up.

[graffthemetalhead]

:O muscians like your self are what drives me to play more and more and more!

[juako811]

What is that blue thing behind the bridge?

[juako811]

I´ve only gotten in to your music the last couple of weeks. And it´s really cool to hear instrumental heavy music that is more riff oriented. And also, the vast mayority of bands that have a lot of cool riffs have god awful vocals, so your music is a relief!!

[riegelbeagle]

CROWBAR Rules!!! and I do dig your work..

[toiletstand]

wow dude this amazing

[Trevaland]

no

[Spike1732]

I would kill for your Line 6 Tone settings, that sounds is just to awesome! Keep up the good work mate

[EMGXX84]

i supose you're endorse by agile guitar's ;)

[Sanetry]

This was the first song I heard from you and still I think it's the best of all of your songs. Heart Of The Sea Nymph is also awesome, but just the spirit that puts this song on the move just gets me excited. Keep it up you're making so many people happy.

[Fight4Anarchy]

@Trevaland you sir... yes you!!! do you like meshuggah?

[diobolic5150]

@Trevaland All the melody is in your videos. You stole all the awesome riffs bro. Shame on you.

[fuelinject]

@diobolic5150 u should be rich with this shit. do u have a band ? cause i would love to sing on that stuff. just for purpose.

[dysfunctionz]

@diobolic5150 I love this response.

[rod3067]

@diobolic5150 if you need lyrics to understand music, you don't listen to it, you just hear it.

[WeveGotNoTimeToLose]

@diobolic5150 How many endorsements do you have? Or how many have you been offered?

[m0r4k4i]

@Trevaland Pretty sure that's what defines this genre of music.

[JudasTheater]

@Trevaland are you fuckin' insane?????Keith rulez man...if you can't understand this you are really Jealous...Your songs are shit compared to keith's...so stfu...

[Molotok666]

@Trevaland i agree with you bro

[MickHate7]

@Trevaland Eih my friend. Keith have a very creative feeling. it´s called the evolution of metal men. Open your fuckin mind. you had 21 subscribers in your channel. Keith has 5342!!! Genius composition. intense melody riffs in some of his songs, great groove. your composition is prisioner of influences. Keith composition is inovation.

[19BigWigglyStyle91]

@Trevaland Theres more in this than the guitar implies, while its the driving force of his music, there is plenty of melody it that alone, but the background keyoboard, the bass, the drums, all add melody, in compared to you this guy is more musically creative in my honest opinion, but it all good man, go around spreading your verbal diarhea somewhere else,

[TheModCon]

@Trevaland Hah hah hah mmmaaateee. You can only say that sort of thing when you write good music bro!!! Hah hah hah There is no innovation in your music at all, very dated too. Sorry man. Your comment is the biggest fail I've seen in a while. Keith >>>>>>>>>> You

[Trilobite8jesus]

@Trevaland

I was always under the impression this type of music never had those qualities in the first place.

[eleph4nt]

@Trevaland I don't think you know what melody means.

[MikeyRoberto]

@Trevaland Ignorance at it's finest.

[SuperKultus]

@Trevaland he's playing the lead guitar, dude! and sometimes musical masterpieces dont require a singer coming in telling you to "lengthen this" or "shorten that up" so he can fit his verse in.. Another thing.. message me when you come up with an original chord progression that has not been played in that order before.. the Basic 12 C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, Ab, A, Bb, B... can you come up with an order that has NEVER been done in music before? didnt think so...

[Bitchflakes666]

@Trevaland melody is for pussies who have no groove

[Guitarmazdur]

@Bitchflakes666 ok, i disagree with him too, but really? thats a little overkill. you are calling everyone who has ever written a song with a melody a pussy :P

[bellingerga]

@Trevaland Twatwaffle.

[bellingerga]

@Trevaland TrevaDerp strikes again

[gjk200000]

@Trevaland look who is talking about glued riffs...not to talk about your uninspired melodies and your poor technic.....sorry

[Habella]

Man i just headbanged all the time till 1:30

I just smashed my mug of icetea down my table, cause i was so into it man.

Good Job all the way!!

[Rhaabjorn]

@Habella rofl! awesome

this is my new favorite song

[WretchedDrummer]

I didn't know Yoda was teaching guitar in Jedi heaven.

[rounder421]

quick question, does Keith do the tabs himself? I'm a little confused on a part, namely what the hell he is doing at 2:12 cause it's different that what he is playing in the video..and also what he is doing at the tail end of the balls and chunk riff at the end. Help?!?!

[rounder421]

those quadruplets at 0:31...mega guitarboner

[rounder421]

i thought at first this was a live recording until i found the booboo. Im a huge fan, this song rocks my socks.

[MrROTD]

Who cares what guitar it is when you have talent lol

[littlecodyhead]

You really cant write cooler riffs

[dahudge14]

@littlecodyhead

sorry, you lose.

[littlecodyhead]

@dahudge14 i meant that as a compliment, as in your riffs are cool as fuck!!

[dahudge14]

@littlecodyhead

ohhhhhhhhh, ok. That was a little bit to easy to misunderstand. Carry on your present course

[dahudge14]

@dahudge14

a little bit *too* easy.... (spelling mistake)

[angielka16]

*_*

[troidin]

This is Satan's theme song.

[killermagnet]

What guitar is this exactly?

[ZEB0V]

@killermagnet Omg, look at 0:01through 0:04 again and you'll see.

[StewartHaasNewman]

your tone is simply amazing

[Hannibal941]

What program do you use to write the drums? :D

[ThrashingBlackDeath]

that kills \m/

[damaged01]

3 deaf people hit dislike because they can see but not hear the epicness.

[randompinc7]

god this is tighter than a nuns pussy! this sounds fuckin immense man! :D

[FIndelCOB]

Watched, rated, subscribed..

You're insane man

[jtalderman]

Hey I have a few questions for you. I am interested in buying an Agile Septor Pro 725. How are the Agile stock pickups and neck? Also, how is the floating trem? My first 7 string was an Ibanez RG7321, and I have now decided to sell it. I have noticed that you use a lot of Agiles and would like your input. Great playing btw. So whenever you get the chance get back to me. Thanks.

[calitheguitarist]

hi im wanting to know, if i buy Awakening The Stone King, does that end up coming as a cd? like a physical cd i can hold in my hand or does it just unlock the download?

[VhMetalx]

@calitheguitarist It's just a download, he doesn't have physical copies of "Awaken the Stone King" made.

[bloodyrockfire]

Now this is what I call wickedly and amazingly played metal music.thank heaven for the underground refuge.Great job man!

[tpreagan]

3 dislikes.

Hahahahahahaha. One wonders what combination of events led the idiots here who DIDN'T expect to hear sickmonstershredding. Cretins.

[e3axordos]

[xT3hDoct4hHsojx]

Your style sounds like In Flames but more badass, you should be the new In Flames guitarist lol.

[bpldios]

[psychostew911]

@bpldios not 27 frets, the scale length is 27 (inches) haha

[bloodshotskies951]

hey, im really looking into an agile for my next guitar, but i cant find any where i live. are they good? im sure they must be if you play em, but are they good enough to just get one online and be amazed or what lol?

[dimmub69]

Hey dude great video! What are u tuned to ??

[TheRuccus]

@dimmub69 He is tuned to from big to small, Bb F Bb Eb Ab C F. so Bb and then the rest 1/2 step up. Check out my covers for him if you have the chance!

[dimmub69]

[proguitargamer]

Do I hear a dead fret or something?

[smokejc]

@proguitargamer Bass?

[WorldAnarchy15]

[smokejc]

@WorldAnarchy15 sounds like a Flanger effect to me.

[warb3ast92]

Cool song bro, love how heavy this riff sounds >_< keep it up.

[19wes87]

[cipher619]

[michelterres]

[BvdLNL]

Are you doing that because of a certain sound or just feelin' da music?

Props on your work btw!

[supah1337B]

Iplay just like you

[diobolic5150]

@supah1337B Not just sometimes, that's pretty much what I do all the time.

[poopscoop616]

@diobolic5150 High five to those who can pull guitar riffs out they're asses! High five to those who use an extended range guitars!

[plowingzero]

Nice Crowbar shirt there bro.

[diobolic5150]

@plowingzero Crowbar kicks ass!

[FollowerofBodom]

@diobolic5150 dude how good are the Agile 7 strings? I was always looking at them but I need an uniased review on the scale length, neck and feel (and sounds obviously LOL.)

[jclp81]

@diobolic5150 Hey man if you dig crowbar, check out a band called The Sign of the Southern Cross, they are based out of Asheville N.C. they are on youtube, they have a monster singer

[giftedNmusic]

cold chills @ 2:32 good stuff

[weemankyle]

[bassplayyer]

That's good stuff man ! Youre using a profire 610, bx8a monitors and an oxygen 49 right ?

[diobolic5150]

@bassplayyer Yeah, among other things.

[035Obsidian]

[batman0466]

1st off, love the song. Brutal all the way through. amazing.

2nd. I love how all your songs have something to do with space. The universe has always intrigued me, and its awesome how pretty much mixed the two.

Both CD's sound great, keep it up, bro

[NexusValtero]

[sikdnb]
