Darkest Hour - An Ethereal Drain (Kris Norris Shredding)

[PurpleElephant94]

i want him back in darkest hour :o

[humblejumpify]

Kriss is underrated.....he plays heavy, fast, melodic and clean....

[Jr3ll]

i want that guitar..love the finish

[Vogoth993]

kriss's songs are good though, i loove darkest hour but i must say as a guitarist that i listen a little more to kriss's stuff now he left... =-(

[juggalopenguin1134]

.....Where was this show?

[nosweepinginnj]

kris norris is still better than darkest hours new guitarist

[xD00MSAYERx]

I would have killed to see them live while Norris was still in the band.

Hell, I would kill to see them live now. :P

Awesome solo.

[xmetalmissx]

at 0:04 you can see my cell phone in the bottom left corner

[MattBolman]

his shredding distorts the video!!!

[JacksonShredder777]

pause a 0:23

[RaspberryJams69]

hmm,he didn't hit the pinch harmonic

[sunslap]

20 seconds is beautiful.

[bchoun]

a fucking god

[Jr3ll]

one of the best songs on deliver us..new album blows..Kriss was the man

[VascoA7X]

kris is the best..

[AsITimDying]

nevermind... it's custom, dang it ;P

[AsITimDying]

What finish is on that LTD h-1001?

it looks really cool.

[superjesus117]

its an H-1000

And its standard

perhaps see through black

as far as I know he dosn't won any custom guitars, lets alone ESP

[AsITimDying]

I did some further research and it's an H-1001

and he painted it himself.

it's the sadist nation artwork on it.

[superjesus117]

Where did you find that?

As far as I know he only owns:

2 H1000's

2 Alexi V's

M-II With Maple Fingerboard

KH2

And 2-3 ESP Eclipses

[superjesus117]

Actually ur right, it is the H-1001 headstock, it wasn't until I was just playing my own H-1000 that I noticed the headstocks are different.

[AsITimDying]

Lol... let's trade :P I've been dying to look for a h1000, but it was nowhere to be found around here lol.

oh well... was cool 'youtubing' with ya ;P

[superjesus117]

Yea, the H1000's destroy the H1001s!

Mine is even the cool burst one with the Seymour Duncans like Kris has. Amazing guitar. Its my main recording guitar, I need floyds on all my live guitars XD

[AsITimDying]

No way... burst one rocks srsly... :[

anyway, i hate floyds ;P i don't play solo's.. YET !

i've only been playin' for like 10 months so haha.

[superjesus117]

Floyds are the shit. They are a hassle, but once you get good and stringing, tuning, and setting up ect they are the best. I could restring and retune a floyd in like 10 minutes at this point if I wanted XD

[AsITimDying]

that's pretty awesome ;P but until I begin to like solos over the rest of a song there ain't no floyd on my guitar ;P

[superjesus117]

They are not just for solo's dude, I use em in intro's sometmes, and even just in riffs.

One is a measure of sixteenth notes(open palm muted E string) And then I hit a natural harmonic at the 3rd fret E and pull up on my floyd. Such a badass sound!

[AsITimDying]

true that ;P i'll just have to stick with bends for now xD

[superjesus117]

You'd be shocked how easy it is to get a guitar with a good floyd. My nephew just pickup up a Schecter Hellraiser C-1 FR, a 900 dollar guitar, for 450 used in perfect condition from guitar center Boston. So just keep an eye out dude!

[AsITimDying]

awesome !! but I think my next guitar will be a 7 string c7 hellraiser ;P without floyd xD

[superjesus117]

If you have only been playing for 10 months is a $850 guitar really necessary?

[AsITimDying]

lol... well to be honest... the h-1001 plays like a dream ;P so i'm glad I have it :'D

[brandon5pennies]

that's if you don't clean up your guitar and skip stretching the strings and stuff all the things that actually make a new set of strings worth the hassle. cleaning the fretboard etc.

[superjesus117]

I consider stretching to be part of stringing, and I am always cleaning up my guitars, so I usually don't need to when changing

[YoungShred15]

I still can't believe that Kris is gone :(

I'm so glad that I got to see them live before he left. Amazing show.

[iKr0ok]

Only If they were still together =( They aren't the same without kris.

[adtthosa]

true, though they still kick just as much ass live

[freakonaleash3112]

yea he brought such a melodic feel to the band. they will not be the same.. just imagine john is when youre listening to the kris norris projekt.

[kiley0225]

i was def the guy in front of u paul was dead in my face and stuck his pick to my forehead with the blood from his fingers at the end

[cloud041089]

kris' sweeps were so good the camera couldnt focus.

[Rainnnny]

no, he just played at speed of light so it seemed that camera couldnt focus

[guitarist907]

guitar + Chuck Norris = Kris Norris

[x2500000]

/me agrees

[drlaza]

lol hehe awsome truth

[rollondough]

Mike Carrigan was former At All Cost guitarist.

[neilwiththedeal]

Norris was always too good for Darkest Hour

[deathdragon123]

WHY MUST HE LEAVE DARKEST HOUR

[darkesthour182311]

i dont know it sucks

[Bodomguitarshredder]

Crap! Is Kris Norris leaving Darkest Hour?

[darkesthour182311]

yea he already left...he has been replaced by mike carrigan

[osmond152]

which is also good! since he recored the mark of the judas with them previously!

[aporchmonkey]

hes already gone son, unfortunately, at least we know wherever he goes if he decides to keep playing that that band will have an amazing lead guitarist

[SKSC]

i think it had something to do with his son being born.

[brandon5pennies]

agreed he's a guitarist but i think as a parent that's his 1st priority cause what kind of parent would be gone half of the year and not spend time with their new son? i sure as hell wouldn't even guys like petrucci need a break once in awhile

[DarkestHourRock]

I read it was because he wanted to start pursuing a career in production, but I dont know if thats why he left. He's been helping out Fierce Allegiance with producing/guest guitar stuff.

[DarkestHour47]

yeah he wanted to start a career in metal production and do his own thing

[Jr3ll]

@deathdragon123 he didnt leave he got kicked out his wife hated all he touring..the drummer Ryan told me after thier set at a dillenger show..if you dont believe me i have a picture with all of them

[x1crazyllama123]

is he related to chuck norris? is that why he is a beast?

[mikizzle16]

hes alot better on album he doesnt recreate his sound enough and i know stuff always sounds better on album then live.. but seriously killswitch has been around for the same amount of time and they have mastered there stage show

[darkesthour182311]

they havent been around for the same amount of time....there is way more energy at the darkest hour concert and i have witnessed both

[thychaos]

@mikizzle16 yeah but the thing is, killswitch isnt technical at all. kris norris's riffs are fucking tough to play. takes a masterful guitarist to play it perfectly.

[Muckruckuck]

@mikizzle16 true, but killswitch's music isnt techical. like, at all. norris wrote some pretty technical riffs and sweeps, and i know he didnt do them perfectly but they are pretty fucking hard to do.

[Ruin45]

GOD Can wait to see them in rochester with parkway drive and winds of plague

[possessedbyburzum]

he gave me his pick in my hand haha he is so fuckin great !

[CALRUOOP]

kris norris is the Shizznit...

[tragim71]

[tragim71]
