I won’t lie. I miss Johnny but I’m stoked for Pav. He has the look and the skillset. He absolutely kills on his Instagram videos. Archie is no fool. He’s been patient adding the right ingredients to this band
Amazing, guys! The FATE brought you both to play together.Two rock'n'roll brothers.Proud of you both,Arttu and Pavel.Finally! ROCK ON! It's the completely rock'n'roll harmony,my dear guys.
@@saaturn.1659 Would help if their guitars would be in tune. Made everything sound kinda shit, even if it wasn't. Johnny was the best Finnish (pure rock) guitarist I have ever heard. Reaching a level of technique and cleanness that I think is very rare. Even internationally. Not many people will reach that, Archie is not bad either, 0:47 - 0:55 lick here is really solid, but in some parts he is sloppier here than he was on Shred 1-2. Shred guitar is sadly like high level sports, unless you practice constantly (and focus on drinking/drugs instead, or whatever) you lose the edge quickly
@@shredd5705 I agree with you about practice and the fact that Archie isn't as tight as he used to be, BUT!!!! At least he is not over-editing his shit to make it look utra tight beyond what he can actually play (hello Lucas Mann)
@@Deamonition Yeah editing like that is cheating, but they didn't edit Shred till you Drop 1-2 at all, it was pure live on one take. Tight as fuck. Such a shame to see them putting in that amount of work, having a shot most ppl just dream of, and then throw it all away over internal disputes, that I'm sure could've been worked out. Too much not being sober I believe... doing all the same mistakes as their idols from the 80's
Everybody needs to know, that nothing could stand their places whole life long. Everything is mooving on. Good point to start for you, guys. Best wishes, can't wait for upcoming album!!!
Johnny is gonna be missed but I feel like if these guys play together a little more they'll be super tight. Glad to see some sort of update from santa Cruz
johnny never owns archie ...and he doesnt play much better than this other dude...i could understand if you like his style i like it too but dont shit about this other players...
Since apparently everyone just wants to cry about Johnny instead of being objective, lets try being real. Nice job Archie and Pav, if I have one criticism it's that you can tell that there isn't the bond or chemistry between you two - at least not yet, it'll come in time though. Composition is still pure fking adrenline as always! Keep it up dudes, as much as I loved Cruz Vol 1, I'm excited to see what Cruz Vol 2 has to offer.
As somebody who has ''missed some episodes'' after the Santa Cruz breakup,how is the sistuation? Is Archie gonna pull an Axl Rose/Dave Coverdale and continue Santa Cruz with an entirely new line-up or start a new band and what are the other guys doing? (Sorry,I'm too lazy to look it up.)
Wow. Had no idea they broke up! Thanks for the heads up as I was looking at this going where is Johnny? Man. Let's hope he doesn't sink to the Dave Coverdale level.
Think the band had problems with Archie for a long time, and since they all kicked Archie out of the bus and no one else, seems like Archie fucked up something.. probably alcohol too
But YES, I wish the original band was still together, or still playing the same type of music. I'm here in the states and it's frickin' pitiful right now with music, rock just vanished and I rely on overseas for my music.
Anyone ever notice Archie totally rips off his own solos in every Shred Till You Drop... for example he plays pieces of “We Are The One’s To Fall” In this one. Sounds awesome, but it makes me personally feel like he doesn’t have many ideas up his sleeve. Also... Johnny’s got better licks 🤘
That's all? You tease us with just one video upload! That's not Kool.... But it sure as hell sounded good!. Thanks for letting me hang while you jam.. Party on Wayne-Party on Garth...
Yes it's sad, but Pavel is an insanely good guitarist. It sucks when someone leaves, but I hate when people just automatically hate on the new guy. It's not their fault someone left the band.
Archie rules ! ! His riffs here not only had the affects of a run away train, but his passages and runs showed a maturity and a sense of awareness that only comes when you stay out of your own way and you play for the greatness of your skill and the enlightenment of your audience. Really impressive Archie ! ! Pav seemed a touch overpowered by your display of pyro technics Archie. He mired a little to heavily in his sweep picking and had some difficulty creating the runs that should've either complimented your riffs or taken the solo to a new level. He's on it though and either way, you guys killed it and their was fresh eats for all. Congrats ! ! Whatever did happen to Johnny ? ?
This one just doesnt quite live up to the first 2 . Archie has some really cool sounding licks but the other guy , I mean after seeing Johnny unless Yngwie is sitting next to you its just not gonna be as great. New guy is decent but obviously Johnny is a beast.
@@jonfaerman7518 I don't want to hurt you but IMO Johnny is better then Yngwie. Of course Yngwie is hundred times better guitarist than me, and I respect him, but Johnny is more colorful as I see. So if an angel would come and ask me which guitarist talent's I wish, I definitelly say: Johnny! (or Archie of course. That's why I'm sad. Why have they went apart???? I've in my life seen such two brilliant guitarist in one band. NEVER!! And I'm afraid, I won't. :-( ) Anyway the new guy is very very good I must say. ROCK ON!! :-)
Captain Ahab but the thing is, as you may know, there wouldn’t be johnny without yngwie :) of course the internet is full of 8year olds who can play all of yngwie’s stuff blindfolded with hands behind their backs, but they will never be the innovators such as yngwie was :) not bashing on johnny, he’s a fucking great guitarist, but the yngwie just is a pioneer. Don’t even know who’s better in my opinion. Well, music isn’t a competition :) have a good one!
@@captainahab9494 what if Jacky Vincent or Jason Richardson, Jeff Loomis, Tosin Abassi, Guthrie Govan or Angel Vivaldi sits next instead of this new guy? I think that would do the job.
It's a pity that Archie and Pavel broke up!!! Johnny left first, then Pav... What will happen next? It's a pity that such a project has sunk into oblivion!!!
I am from America, so I am not prevelant to all the latest news on Santa Cruz, are they still together? I know they broke up here in the States on Tour, did they reform? If they did Reform, any Original members or just Archie? I have seen a recent video of " The Local band" Playing live with Archie, but I was just wondering about Santa Cruz
Crispy, thanks dude, what about Johnny, Middy & Taz? Are they doing anything together? Are they in different bands? Or did the experience with Archie just make them quit Music all together? I know Archie said in a facebook Posting on the Santa Cruz page that he had been clean & sober for like 6 months ( As of posting time) wonder if that's his way of opening the door for them?
@@timwirasnik5878 - If you don't know by now for the time being it seems Middy, Johnny and Taz have pretty much stepped away from playing music. Although if you look up videos here with Johnny and Middy's real names you'll find that Middy did play at an Ac/Dc tribute night with the band, Block Buster last November. Johnny played live with the band, Blind Channel last May. Johnny has been busy producing and writing with Block Buster, Blind Channel and White Flame. Archie stated he was clean and sober for 6 months was in reply to the guys in the Local Band saying Archie was leaving to pursue his own music - instagram.com/p/BkiPJs6nhJM/ 🤷♂️
Archie is in Santa Cruz, he holds the rights to the band name. Currently he and Pav are the only official members. Johnny, Middy, and Taz have all left the band. Although I believe there are rumors circulating of a possible bassist and drummer.
That pink speaker, sounds amazing!
It's genelec speaker. That small one costs like 400€
That is a 2-way radio
I won’t lie. I miss Johnny but I’m stoked for Pav. He has the look and the skillset. He absolutely kills on his Instagram videos. Archie is no fool. He’s been patient adding the right ingredients to this band
What happened to him
things that didn't age well
Aging worse everyday@@JohnM-cd4ou
Johny and Pav would be more awesome, technically speaking
Very cool. So glad to see young guys actually play. Gibson's rule!. Thanks from In. USA.
Amazing, guys! The FATE brought you both to play together.Two rock'n'roll brothers.Proud of you both,Arttu and Pavel.Finally! ROCK ON! It's the completely rock'n'roll harmony,my dear guys.
Absolutely awesome, your new pal Pav has some mad chops
Pav is killing it! Nice 👍
Паша - намбер Ван!! Красава🎸👍
They are both great! Santa☆Cruz...ROCK ON!
Ok! You sold me....Sick jamming...not since the 80s have i seen two dude rip it up together like that...killer work
Pavel rocks 🤘🎸👏 Right choise, Archie 👍
Amazing!!! The best!!! A big hug from Rio de Janeiro-Brazil
That Custom with Piton leather finish is just mind blowing!!
No johnny no party
I thought the same.
I miss the original alienation af.

No Johnny? No bodom intro?
You two are incredible unbelievable keep on shredding it up
Thank you archie, very cool!
2:15---2:20 blew my fucking mind
It's kinda obviously, everyone miss Johnny, Middy and Taz.
But the rhythm and the adrenaline still up and more alive.
The TONE IS SO SICK !!!! Love it !!
Охуенно, оч рад за Павла, круто играет!
U guys rock! Luv the Gibson’s!🎸🎼🎸🎸🎵🎸🎶🎼🎸🎵🎸🎼🎸🎵👍
01:56 Great technique!;)
It's called the wank-off.
Listen to Pavs song ready to fall he has an awesome lick with the same technique there.
This dudes really rock , they're awesome .
One day i'll play like archie
You guys are Awesome players.Shred indeed!
That's insane. I still prefer the Vol. 1 tho. That was epic.
Very cool!!! Badass Intro riff! 😌🎸🎶👌🤘🤘🤘
You should upload more man. Much love
Everybody needs to know, that nothing could stand their places whole life long.
Everything is mooving on.
Good point to start for you, guys. Best wishes, can't wait for upcoming album!!!
Holly shit you guys killed it!! Congrats Pavel!
Johnny is gonna be missed but I feel like if these guys play together a little more they'll be super tight. Glad to see some sort of update from santa Cruz
WHAT A GREAT PLAYERS , BOTH OF THEM!!
SHRED TILL YOU DROP 4 COME GUYS!
I like what I heard!!!!!!! Always hoping for more songs!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please release Shred Till You Drop forever and ever!!!!!!!!
this is just too heartbreaking to watch
prodigious man...love it!
I love these shred 'till you drop vids, very cool and love the playing. I've sat down with my bass and played along also ...lol
Amazing playing ami the best Archie and Rock on BRo
ilman johnny ja archie ei ole santa cruz haluamme Johnny. Terveisiä Argentiinasta (Argentina)
I need another Santa Cruz album!!!!
Cant deny they good af but its the same shit i regularly heard over n over on the radio.
Can't wait to see you guys again, come back to Birmingham boys
Is it just me or did anyone else feel that Pav's solo was fucking tasty, it sounded fresh and brought some new elements!
Its just you.
Yes, it’s just you
Lol, maybe it's just me then 🤣
That dude may look like a glam rock reject but he's seriously good. And holy shit the young dude is like the new modern version of Archie. Wow
Fucking amazing killer tone, glad to see you're back on track Archie. I see you guys have amazingly expensive gear back there haha
Ребята, больше таких видео пожалуйста. Вы реально круто и качественно исполняете
Ну ты очнулся)))
no point in watching this when the great one isn't around anymore.
Johnny owns both of them a hundred times over
Tequila Spiral So don't watch it!
johnny never owns archie ...and he doesnt play much better than this other dude...i could understand if you like his style i like it too but dont shit about this other players...
I think we should stop that shit. No one "owns" anyone. The 3 of them kick some ass.
Tequila Spiral Who the fuck is Johnny????
where is jonny is he dead not anymore in the band or what i like that band very much so i would like tho know what happend
Since apparently everyone just wants to cry about Johnny instead of being objective, lets try being real.

nothing wrong with missing Johnny dude.....he fuckin rocked....BUT yes it's cool to see see "new" blood
jeremypaxmanisatwat how did find out his name ?
ESP/Mike agreed, Johnny has got awesome chops.
Dana Dinu Instagram
just knew it......
WTF why am I just hearing these guys their great!
🤘 new album 2018 please 😀
Great playing guys,great tone too
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻⚡⚡⚡
As somebody who has ''missed some episodes'' after the Santa Cruz breakup,how is the sistuation?
Is Archie gonna pull an Axl Rose/Dave Coverdale and continue Santa Cruz with an entirely new line-up or start a new band and what are the other guys doing?
(Sorry,I'm too lazy to look it up.)
greekfreak1980 apparently thats what he is trying to do
Wow. Had no idea they broke up! Thanks for the heads up as I was looking at this going where is Johnny? Man. Let's hope he doesn't sink to the Dave Coverdale level.
Think the band had problems with Archie for a long time, and since they all kicked Archie out of the bus and no one else, seems like Archie fucked up something.. probably alcohol too
Exactly
Archie is an egotistical cock. He'll continue the band with new people and call it "Santa Cruz".
Those two green speakers on the mid left are the main ones.
Great guys, nice guitar solos
Awesome shred, you guys! Do you both have any more shred videos coming out soon? God bless you and the band.
But YES, I wish the original band was still together, or still playing the same type of music. I'm here in the states and it's frickin' pitiful right now with music, rock just vanished and I rely on overseas for my music.
Freaking awesome guys!!
Anyone ever notice Archie totally rips off his own solos in every Shred Till You Drop... for example he plays pieces of “We Are The One’s To Fall” In this one.
Sounds awesome, but it makes me personally feel like he doesn’t have many ideas up his sleeve.
Also... Johnny’s got better licks 🤘
If you can play it.....you can say it....dont pretend ut aint shred virtuoso they ripped thru it
Suzanna Andrea I’m sorry? 🤷♂️
Is it compulsory to have a Less Paul if you're in Santa Cruz?
les paul is guitar for male not for gazelles
That was badass
Real taste 4 playing...Archie
Guy on the gold top killed it!
For those who doesnt know - the guy on the left is a Russian guitar hero! Павел вперед!!!
русские вперед
Putins son basically lol
That's all? You tease us with just one video upload!
That's not Kool....
But it sure as hell sounded good!.
Thanks for letting me hang while you jam..
Party on Wayne-Party on Garth...
hell to the fuck yeah, stop crying over spilled milk and just sit back and enjoy the shredding people!!
incredible Popov!
Cool dudes! I just seemed to ride a fucking roller coaster! 🔥🤘🤯 🔥 This is awesome!!! 👍👍👍
Nice job indeed. I do miss Johnny what happened?
From the sound of it Archie caught lead singer disease and the rest of the band left because of it
0:03 song please?
Awesome guitar level !
Holy shit, Pav really killed it!!!!!!!!!
Hey new guy!! NIIIIIIIICE! 👊💘
BRAVO!!!!
Still better than me haha.
Saucy playing, fellas
Archie is sticking his middle finger out for the beginning of his playing. Looks very intentional.
Those Friedman amps just fucking cook! Steaming!.
Yes it's sad, but Pavel is an insanely good guitarist. It sucks when someone leaves, but I hate when people just automatically hate on the new guy. It's not their fault someone left the band.
that rhythm was amazing
Too bad the records don't sound like this any more.
this is fucking awesome
These two guys really make me wanna throw out guitar out off mah Window..

Johnny was much better
Yess Vol 3! Shreddordie!
Where's Johnny ? 😢
RNSlash 😭💔
Johnny I don’t think isn’t in the band anymore
archie not in santa cruz

Its a joke dont be mad boyzz i love shred videos n santa cruz music ✌🌹
The notes choice you guys fucking make is fucking unbelievable
Павел, ты великолепен. И игра твоя поинтереснее чем у оппонента.
Who the fuck is Johnie? I loved this video, keep it UP!!!
not bad actually..didn't expect much but this was good..some parts reminded a little bit of shred till you drop 1 but still
where'd the other dude go?
