I fucking love this riff
here are the tabs for you:
0-3-5 0-3-6-5
Haha you have good taste bro, i shouldn't judge it with ur guitar skills mb 🙃
@@jorgexzavier8309 i care how much money they pay you
@@shinolight3685 yeh righto mate, this song is so fucking technical, ive tackled learning it myself, so many little details, not for noobs
@shinolight3685 not sure if trolling or handicapped
My mind was waiting for the sound to change with the different Seymour Duncan pickups......Awesome song as always!
SAME HERE!!
hahahahaha
Haha so true
@@franzmaurer7108 same... curious...which 2 did you like the most of the Duncan's demo he did? The metal version vid lol.
@@underthethrone668 The Duncan Custom SH-5 has been a fovorite of mine for years. I use a 300k pot with them. I really don't have a number 2 choice.
@@4GMRocks Same here. I bought one almost immediately for my two main guitars at the time and haven't looked back. Haven't had the funds to completely retrofit, but it's on the list for sure.
I miss the demos and songs on this channel.
Yeah me too I was super eager to see a notification everytime.
just Keith been a successful busy dude I guess :)
$$$$$$$
Quality over quantity my friend patience:-)
Now hes got a signature schecter, Almost like seeing a childhood best friend get famous and not have enough time for the gang anymore
This track will always be TIMELESS.
Brings back good memories though, RIFFS LIVE FOREVER!
Thanks Keith!
The Seymour Duncan demos that made me discover your music.
Doesn't feel like it's been 6 years, sir...
+1 I NEEDED to find out who wrote this towering monstrosity of a song
Fell asleep to it blasting the demo in my earphones every night for like a month straight several years back. So damn soothing and hypnotizing. Just puts my brain in the forget about everything zone as I drift off. 👊💪🤘
We need Conquering Dystopia
If only Jeff Loomis, and the Alex twins (Rudinger and Webster) show any interest as well... 👍
They all show interest but check Keith faq he talked about it. He says that working in the same room as Jeff was so efficient for the first album that they both want to wait a time where they’ll be able to do that and focus rather than working from across the world
You know a riff is brilliant when after hearing it 943583021 times while going through the pickup demos it STILL KICKS YOUR ASS.
Also, this is just a textbook on how to make good proggy/technical metal. Just the right balance of complex and headbangable. Brilliant.
Absolutely! I think it's required by law to bob your head and put on a stank face when the main groove kicks in.
This is the tune that convinced me to buy a 7 string. Such an amazing tune.
Has it been 15 years now? I remember the first time I heard this song it altered my view on riffing altogether. Was a good day discovering your channel back then. I miss all the content.
Syzygy speaks TRVE
Ah, that snarling Merrow tone 😍😍😍
Live this tune! Bought a 7 string just to learn it! 👍
What kind did you get
The best is back, when we need him!
Stay safe and hands-cleaned! The only infection we need now must come from your amazing playing! 🤘🏻❤️
He's got the cleanest hands in metal
KaldDodeGitarist no doubt about it! 🤘🏻
But that tone is fucking filthy
I miss the 15 minutes Pickups comparison with this song!
Jeff Loomis and Keith Merrow are a huge reason I got a 7 string Schecter over a year ago. I’m still trying to locate the switch that makes me sound as good as them 😂.
old but gold
Such a fucking banger. Going on 16 years old, has it's driver's license and it's taking everyone to school.
Amazing job Keith! This was the first song ever to make me pick up a 7 string guitar when i heard it years ago! I'm glad to see how far you've come!
Honestly same i bought a 7 string because of this song
@@vformarallo Me too... KM-7...
One of the best instrumentals of all time. Fuck yes
I remember hearing this song on youtube for the first time and being like, who tf is Keith Mer... O_O
This has got to be amongst the sickest 7 string riffs out there 🤘
SICK !!
Yes!! The world needs more Merrow/Loomis!!
coming for nostalgia, found im still subscribed
By that performance, you can tell his hands are clean! So clean!
This track is fucking brutal! Found this song through the SD pickups demo, finally now the song name!!
15 years old but still smashes it. Btw, I bought his Km7 MIII and it's literally the best guitar I own. Thanks Keith, keep it up.
RIFF ICON!
I’ve always loved this song. Super fun and groovy to play
That second riff is abosolutely fucking sick headbanger
Still remains a musical masterpiece and one of my favorite songs ever! It's inspired me in many different ways, both in art and in life since I heard it the first time!
Much love
Amazing, as always to see anything Merrow. But when do we get a new “morning coffee”???
THE DRUM I LOVE HOW HE MIXED IT VERY GOOD SOUNDING NIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEEEE
Hell yes brother!
I swear to god this is still the best riff ever created.
you must be a young little boy to say this
@@theallforone6240 This is one of my favourite riffs of all time.... Sue me
@@Naircol im glad that people recognize the talent of Mr Keith Merrow to this point , but that didn't change the fact that you must be a young little boy to say that hahahahahha , im just kidding you have the right to like whatever you want i just felt a little too much for "the best riff ever created" hahahaha even merrow will say that he have a lot of good songs than this one , sorry
@@theallforone6240 it's all good man!
@@Naircol you are the man :)
The 7 string anthem!
It's the 7-string Stairway to Heaven thing to play in a guitar store and I love it!
In modern (instrumental) metal, for sure. It might go to Korn if were talking as a whole. I still think Keith is deserving of that title, though.
this is even tighter and solid!!
Beautiful!
Good to have you back!
it’s impossible to hear this song and not feel like you are ready to blast through the very gates of hades with thors hammer in hand. All the yes 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Riffs! Fecking Riffs!!
OMG your sound... expecially at 0:31 on these open strings.. so agressive !
This is your best interpretation of this song imo
The man and song that completely changed my musical trajectory. My most influential musician of the last decade.
Ohhooo ... good times and memories this song is to me... yeeeah! Thank you Keith!
I've loved this riff for so many years
Praciting this song blew the fuse on my amp. Guess it was too heavy.
cheers from Texas!
🤘😎🤘
...just watched you do Coffee With Ola!
great interview!
It doesn't matter when songs/riffs were written.
the good ones keep the waves going!
Enjoy the ride!
M
PS
Keep in mind, it's brand new EVERY time a new set of ears hears it!
I love this.
You and Jeff Loomis will always be my favs. Thank you !
Old stuff's really original. New stuff is some quality shit too don't get me wrong but these old tunes are so fucking catchy.
YES!
Awesome tune. Badass KM ... love the white pups on white
The best metal song of all times for 7 strings guitar along with Heart of the Sea Nymph. Big respect to Maestro Keith Merrow
Metal Forever!!!!!
Seymour Duncan owes you a percentage of almost all my pickup purchases for the last 6 years.
Thank you ;-)
been practising this song for over 2 years now and I still cant even nail the first riff, your inhuman Keith
We need a new Coffee Q&A and a studio tour!!
Some of THE BEST riffs ever written are in this piece!
I remember being floored when I heard this the first time, many years ago. I probably played the whole thing at least 5 times through before immideatly resesrching the rest of Keiths catalogue, and downloading the zip-files from his page. 😂
🤘😝
The king is back lml lml
That was bomb!
So good. RIIIIIIIIIIFFFFFSSSS
riffalicious!!!
fuck me that verse goes so goddamn hard
That rhythm tone is fucking SICK
And all these years I love this song so much... Maaaan!
One of the most creative riffs ever played IMHumbleO!
The best...🤘🤘
Dude you absolutely just crush and knock shit out of the park every time.
song still slaps
Keith is a gem. I have repected this man for a long time. Guitar tone is always great.
One of the greatest riffs and grooves of all time. I can not get enough of this track
I was looking for pillars of creation by noisecontroller. I wasn’t disappointed
Cant wait to hear what you and Simon got brewin in the cauldron.
was listening to this way over 10 years ago. Song still rips
I dont know why I havent heard of you before. This is sick
Keith is just a pure fucking badass.... The imagination he must have to create all these riffs....
Охрененная композиция! Браво Кит!!!
Who also bought all Keith's albums because of this song?;) Love this song!
Regards from Poland! Hope to see you here;)
As I was learning this, I was thinking "Dammit, Mr. Merrow!! Couldn't you have written this just 5 bpm slower!" 😆
SUCH great riffs. Never get tired of it.
crazy that this song inspired me to get my first 7 string like 12 years ago??
wild. still sick now
Thanks for posting this
Mad Mods Keithy!
The bomb!!! 👌
Ah.... this again. I needed it.
One of the best riffs of all time!! Great to hear the first song of yours I learned again!!! Good to see you're still out there doing things, hope you're staying safe and hopefully releasing some new music soon? Need more of those killer riffs of your in my life man.
Amazing as always, one riff after another!!!
The master strikes again !!! LIke ever
nice to know you live just up the road from me... though, I doubt this Covid b.s. will ever end... would be nice to see you perform in person. I bought your signature KM3 yesterday from Guitar Center, and learning all about your signature Fluence pick-ups... thanks for your gift.
Absolutely love this song. awesome!
You got the knack for awesome riffs and solos, en when I feel down I always check out your blazing great videos...Kudos man
Kickass version of one of my favorite songs, Thanks!
Can't get enough of this song, it is so good !!

This song has been my ringtone since like i cant even remember.
First Merrow rips an old classic and then i see someone repping Hizaki; my first ever guitar hero. All on the same video. Damn son.
