The original video was what made me subscribe to this channel in the first place. This is as good as the first time I saw it. Loomis's an absolute beast.
That's simply not true. He's even said so. His style isn't anywhere close to Arch Enemy's style of writing and they have an established "sound." Hate on Arch Enemy all you want but it's blatantly obvious that he's not a good fit for them. He's simply a hired hand for solos, and he DOES write material for them. He may not write whole songs but he does write leads for them. Also, Mike, Angela and Alissa have stated that on the next album, which should be out in 2019 or so, Jeff will be writing songs. Whether they'll get used we'll have to wait and see. I will say, I used to be a die-hard Arch Enemy fan back in the days of Doomsday Machine and Wages of Sin but their new stuff with Alissa sucks. The music all sounds the same and though her voice is great, her lyrics are mediocre at best. I miss Angela and Johan Liiva.
There hasn't been new material written for AE since Jeff joined - he is currently a glorified session musician until they start writing the next album. Besides that, the album that JATO unit is on was released WAY before Jeff was in AE.
I've always wanted to know... what is a 'Jato Unit'? I used to think that this is about a military unit of an alien race from an anime called Gintama, because the Yato people there are really violent and all, and the music is pretty violent too (well, that's true for quite a lot of metal...), but a) I don't think Loomis likes anime b) Gintama doesn't really seem to be his "genre" specifically c) Yato in Gintama is written with "Y" and not with "J" as in the title of this song. So I'm still waiting for an answer from someone :D
It's 2023 and I am still listening to this masterpiece, it's been 12 years and I was a teenager back then
Jeff please we need another solo album !!
The original video was what made me subscribe to this channel in the first place. This is as good as the first time I saw it. Loomis's an absolute beast.
Jeff looks like the douchy high school jock type but he's actually a SUPER nice dude. Honestly one of the nicest dudes in person ever
Ah old Loomis. The one we need but not the one we deserve...
That’s the loomis we needed for the the will to power album \m/
This song is still amazing. Let's not forget Ron Jarzombeks solo in this song was amazing as well!
I've been listening to this song for a decade and still love it !!!
I absolutely loved his solo albums, too bad he's being totally wasted right now in Arch Enemy...
Arch Enemy is a Paid Gig... he was brilliant in Nevermore!
I hated the vocals on Plains. Sorry. Please, no vocals. No one needs them anymore. Listen to instrumental music and read something interesting.
Well he said there would be a third solo album, didn't he?
Couldnt agree more but still, this guy cant be wasted hes probably coming out with a huge project in the future, hopefully
Betcha they pay really well though. Musicians need to eat.
old school awesome emg tv that we all love !
Jeff Loomis the godfather of modern metal shredders
petrucci is a lot more influental but loomis is amazing too.
Blessed be 1080p, thanks for uploading this EMG. So refreshing to ear and see a matching audio, for once in 2017.
Can't get over your exes huh EMG?
underated coment is underated
Saw this when it came out. Still one of emgs coolest.
Still one of the very best out there
Beatiful definition!! Thank you very match!!!
And the legend continues. From Nevermore to Arch Enemy, this man is the epitome of shred. The solo cds just provide more credence to the fact. Killer.
Jeff is AMAZING!
God wanted to shred and Jeff Loomis is born
Awesome, loved this performance. Can we get Tosin Abasi doing wave of babies in HD too?
I missed this video
EMG pickups simply rocks for rhythm playing.
Thanks EMGtv
stunning. Give this one time to simmer...
when arch enemy wont let you write any music for them
i heard that jeff approached michael with song ideas and michael just turned jeff's ideas down. its sad man

Loomis should permanently do something with Keith Merrow...Conquering Distopia with a kick ass vocalist will be straight edge!!!

@Derek Charette Michael won't let him write because he's cant play what JEff would write lol
Only reason he is in Arch Enemy is it pays the Rent .They are a kool metal band but your right his talent is above some of the music of Arch Enemy.
i saw the opening night of the current arch enemy/trivium tour. oh he is outstanding!
River dragon has come 🤘😝🤘 3:58
FINALLY!
great tune, nicely done
Good cover of nirvana
Daniel Reyna True...
What the fuck man.. this is tornado of souls by limp bizkit!!
TYTE AZZ SKILLS BRO......those are KILLER
Jason Becker is back ! 🤤
4:24 sick ending!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Very good!
Glad they re-uploaded this. This is the first time I've seen it... wow. Immediately adding this album to my music library.
Finally in 1080p... :D
Classic
About time EMG put someone good on their show.
Funny thing is, Jeff uses Seymour Duncan Blackouts now.
Yeah this was a long time ago.
This is good to you?
Noice, was waiting for that one.
That arpeggio section tho.
EOS44 *dat
Mantab banget cadas abiess... EMG
not 240p! FUCKING A!
Mr Loomis, yeah :)
Shred by numbers. Move along.
Please, give us 60fps !!!
You can use Adobe After Effects to give a video 60 fps frame rate, i use it a lot and looks very convincent.
JoelMetal really ?
Yes, check out some tutorials on RUclips.
i have no idea who this guy is but damn... he can shred with the best of em///
With return!))
Face melting solo *camera zoom intensifies*
i'm a simple man_ i see jeff and schecter guitar i hit like
O MELHOR 2018 ?❤🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Like Jimmy, there are only 3 remarkebale riffs... every good song was deleted on RUclips...what stays is absolutely standard
It's funny that there's 'Seymour Duncan Jeff Loomis Signature Pickups' as recommended for this video.
Btw this a re-uploaded video
nice reup tho
When you've been playing as long as I have and you see him you're demoralized. This level of insanity on guitar should be illegal.
2:40 madness
2nd Jason becker 🤘🤘
Tube Screamer !
Has anyone observed that they copied the description from the last vid even with the category and youtube license part? :D
What's a "Jato Unit" anyway?
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Круто💪
i wanna play like you and have that hair
Jeff Loomis = Shut up and press the Like
where is the new cd of metal and mayhem of bad ass riffs
But Jeff plays Seymour Duncan's??
2:27 my pinky hurts
modern day Jason Becker.
Am i the only one that thinks that Jeff Loomis looks like Chris Broderick?
PINKY VIBRATO..
Arch Enemy huh ?
He should wrap his hair around his hand and play like that
that mean face tho
Eae Avgvstvs blz

A JATO is a rocket they strap to a plane to assist take off. (Jet Assisted Take Off). Usually if it is over weight.
he looks like the stereotypical metal kid every school has lmao. rock on 🤘
Зря, зря он связался с сатанистами.
Hans Shmulke с сатанистами?
Arch Enemy reference)
No.
Not sure what the "re-edit" is about but I've been watching this video for years. It fucking rules.
istillsuckatguitar better video quality.
