I'm always amazed at Jeff Loomis' ability to make other amazing guitar players look like they are just "pretty good." Killer track.
Jeff is an absolute monster
It's that killer vibrato imo....so "in your face"
Goddamn, this is such a KILLER track! Andy, Mors Principium Est IMO are damn fools for letting you go…
Jeff Loomis just seems to get better with age…always a treat to hear my favorite guitarist and personal God in action.
Samus, Lord Of The Cav behind the kit…my favorite drummer in recent years.
Seriously, IMO this needs to be a touring band. Everything is just AWESOME 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Amen to that!!
MORS fired andy? wtf!? wont be listening to them anymore. He was the lifeblood of that band. really i only liked the guitar anyway, lol. singing was ok, and drumming good. but
Andy made that band.
Why the hell did MPE let Andy go??? By the time MPE put out their album Seven, he WAS the band. His riffs, his leads, his synth/orchestral work, his compositions and arrangements. That sick guitar tone!! MPE's loss. The replacement guitarist has big shoes to fill in my opinion.
@@wesleytrott6397 the entire original lineup came back.
@@wesleytrott6397 Their first 3 albums didnt have Andy, and honestly, their best two albums (The Unborn and Liberation=Termination) were from that era.
As for the reason for the firing, was probably a combination of Andy not wanting to tour (his time not working on MPE albums was mostly working on solo stuff), and the original guitar duo (and bassist) being available to rejoin. Supposedly, Andy was also planning to make Seven his final album with MPE, and I suspect Ville wanted him gone ASAP once it was done so he could make the announcement that the original guitarists were coming back.
As someone who likes Andy's solo work better than his MPE stuff and thinks MPE's best albums were with the original lineup, I honestly think both are better off with the split (Andy just needs more attention and recognition for his solo work than he gets). I just think the way he was fired was shitty
As soon as I heard the leads on the guitar and keys I could tell Jeff was perfect for this
Jeff is the man!!
Holy hell what an adventure!
Haha thanks Mike!
Jeff Loomis is the beast in this song
Man, I almost forget what Jeff sounded like, thanks to Arch Enemy (3:29)
Nice unison leads with keys/guitar, thrashy riffs, and 1:45 nice to see another guitarist who doesn’t forget to write a melodic recurring theme (something I think many modern guitarists omit). I’ll look forward to diving into your stuff!!
Agreed. Loomis joining Arch Enemy is like Dirk joining Megadeth. I mean, I get you have to pay the bills, but man, what a waste.
@@CatchReleaseRepeat I totally agree. Kiko too. Gotta go for the big paycheck tho.
@@CatchReleaseRepeat Idk about Loomis and Arch Enemy, but Dirk is playing with one of his heroes, so there's that :D And from what I've gathered the next Megadeth record may bring in some of Dirk's stuff like blasting.. Loomis just feels completely unused in Arch Enemy in comparison
this song makes me proud to be an andy 🤘
Andys unite!!! 🙌
THE SOCK OF DOOM needs more mention!!!what a crucial part it played!!!!!
awesome work brav. im gonna share and promote the shit out of this.
None of this of course would have been possible without the Sock of Doom ™️
WE ALL NEED MORE SOCK OF DOOM!
we're not worthy!!!! badass!!! two of my favorite guitarists....woooow!
Cheers Doyle!
OOOOOOHHH YURRRRRR
Kick Ass Tune all the way, Jeff Loomis laying down some notes as well, 66Samus on drums, nice, can't wait to hear more!!!
Cheers Chad! :)
Absolutely sick track!!🔥🔥🤘🤘
Can't wait to hear the rest of it!!! (big castlevania vibes from this one)
I get more Bowser than Castlevania...
@@Kalmah-ic5nf both great castle havin games 🤘
This is everything instrumental music should be! Well done man, seriously awesome 👏👏👏
Thank you Glenn! 🙌
Oh yurrrr
🕷🦇OHHHH YHURRR🦇🕷
damn... always suprising...
Pre-ordered and looking forwards Andy.. all the best..
Thank you!
Hell yes! Sounds incredible my dude! That 2:22 riff is too sick! So good to see Mr. Loomis and 66Samus back as well
Cheers buddy!
FUCK YEAH!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥
Not only are you an insanely skilled musician and songwriter, but you've got so many other skilled people joining you on this album. To say I'm hyped is an understatement haha. This song sets things off to an amazing start, can't wait to hear the rest as well!
Thanks so much!
THIS is just BEYOND incredible Andy !!!!!!! SUCH A MASSIVE FAN..
Thanks Mike! :)
So good, and is Loomis playing a Henrik Danhage sigi?
Looks like it. Such a gorgeous guitar. Henrik is ripping on Evergrey’s newest. And this track sounds great with all 3 guys!
@@steve.hoffman absolutely agree he rips, been a fan of his for a while.
oh my god i love that, i'm a big castlevania fan and i just get so hyped up when i hear that neoclassical type of progression, with the keyboard it's just perfect to me :DDDD
Thanks so much!
Badass
...Thank you, Jeff...
GG
Main theme es extremely beautiful and the whole piece orbits around it, a piece that can be enjoyed by anyone, not just guitar players, a masterpiece of song
Thanks so much for the comment, it's made my day
Rock on!
YES!
OMG Jeff absolutely brought his A game on this one, what a solo. Great track man, looking forward to the album!
That snippet at the end as well, so good, awesome 80's/video game vibes
lets goooooo
Andy is a wizard on guitar and keys!
Cheers Dan! 😊
Epic adventure!!!
Righteous🔥🤘
samuth is a beast on drums
He is the man!!
Nice touch, 66Seamus 😁 that socks of doom 🤣
Smooth as 😎
Legendary collab
Waooo. Simply Amazing!!!!!🖤 Musicians, Sound, Technic,, Rffs, Bass, Keyboards, Drums, Solos. Everything is in an high level and maturity
Loved it.🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
💪💪💪
Thanks Carlos!
This riff could be from mors principium est! i was so shocked when Andy quit (or was knocked out from the band) All albums by MPE with Andy rule!
Tbh, I kinda prefer the two separate. Andy's best work is when he's allowed to do his own thing without trying to limit himself to the MPE sound, and MPE's two best albums were from the original lineup (which is back now): The Unborn and Liberation=Termination.
Not to say that his stuff with them was bad (it wasnt. At all), but as someone who got into them with The Unborn, I feel like there was always something missing from that era on Andy's albums with them.
The only shitty part is the way he was fired.
Fresh!
yaaasssss
the pseudo castlevania vibes is exactly what I like about ghost
El Jefe Loomis!
Jeff is the king!
Wow😊👍
I discovered your music as a solo artist back in the day, with the playthrough for skyless. This is good shit! Keep it up!
Love this so much. Really cool to see Samus on here too.
You know you've wrote a good song when Jeff's solo isn't the highpoint, it's just another part of the song that fits in before seamlessly transitioning to the next part. Awesome work as always dude! So many instantly memorable melodies in this one,
Aw man thanks so much!
The backing riffage at 2:07 blew my mind, that's goddamn lovely. The synths are a really good addition. I'm getting castlevania vibes?? What a sick squeel from Loomis! Also this might be my first time seeing 66Samus!
Cheers! Jeff and Samus absolutely killed it on this!
I’m starting to realize that my music taste is basically Andy Gillion
Awww man! This reminds me of video game music so much. Almost like some kind of…. Arcade Metal! ✌🏻💜
I see what you did there.. 😁
That fucking riff at 2:32 *chef kiss* That's some good shit.
Couldn't help but smile all through this and on first listen mind you. I've been blasting the Neverafter album quite regularly since I discovered it and honestly didn't expect that things could go up another notch, but there you have it.
Thanks dude!
I felt like I was deep in the 3am super nintendo era! Wicked track!
Love it. Melody reminds me George Michael's Where Did Your Heart Go.
Haha wow, I can kinda hear it actually!
Still melodic, energetic, fast, catchy. You make new music while Mors Re-recording old music. Way to go dude. Keep up this great spirit
My face melted clean off. 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
10/10 my expectation were big and still mind blown, wow.
Thank you!
This album is gonna be a smorgasbord of riffage! Can't wait!
Eargasims as always great video
The part about 2 minutes in reminded me of Splatter house 2! Awesome as always!!!
I've never played that but that's awesome haha!
epic song with a cool performance video! love it Andy!
Cheers ! 🤘
I always thought I was a MPE fan for the last 10 years. Now I know I was an Andy fan. Awesome job!
Omg of course I love castlevania this is perfect!🖤
Man.. I was glued to the screen, good ol legendary Jeff Loomis.. One of the Ultimate Shredders.. U cant go wrong when u put 3 talents like this together.. Killer job guys..💀🤘
Cheers Eric! Everyone killed it on this one!
@@andygillion i agree, appreciate your response.. See u on the next one..💀🤘
Great stuff guys!! Was waiting for a Gillion / Loomis collaboration. Top notch!
Cheers James!
Damn the song is good but it’s crazy how these guys all know each other and work with/on such a large amount of projects!
So awesome jeff loomis 👌🏼

Cheers Lisa!

Aw thanks so much Sheila!
@@andygillion you're welcome, can't wait to hear more🔥🤘🔥🤗
Rad! 🤘🤘
WOW!!! Just WOW!!! Love Mors Principium Est, (They lost an amazing guitar player) and Jeff Loomis. Your guitar playing is inspirational! Thank you, Andy... really diggin' this!! Definitely going to be on repeat for the remainder of the day!
G'Day Andy! Loved watching you play multiple instruments in this clip!
Cheers Jonathan!
You've ascended into a pretty exclusive space now Andy. Well done. I can se your 1-man show being cost effective to have you tailor an event opening act for the open air multi-day mega-shows . Similar to the "are you ready to rumble" guy in Boxing this could be the niche you own
Haha wow! Thank you! 😊
Bad ass, cant wait to hear more
