Ok, so what do you all think of these guitarists, Jeff is from Nevermore, Progressive Metal Gods by the way , and chris is from Jag Panzer, although he did step in fro steve of Nevermore when he had kidney disease or something, and here are some cool videos of them, the band performing and whatnot, the sweeps at 6:30 and 7:00 in the first video by Loomis are insane!!

Are you takin his online lessons?

Posted by: sb81 Jul 8 2007, 04:04 AM

Wow, that's some sweet 12 string fingerpicking

Posted by: icedern Jul 9 2007, 03:31 PM

I've been listening to a lot of Nevermore lately. They are really talented.

Posted by: The Uncreator Jul 9 2007, 05:00 PM

Yeah, This Godless Endeavour is easily one of the best albums of the past 15 years.

I would also like to know if you're taking online lessons.

From what it sounds, Chris is one of the, if not THE best option for a teacher for us small town people. My local guys just...don't cut it

He's pretty cheap, average at least, I KNOW he's an amazing player, I know his credability...perfect slice of teacher pie if you ask me.

Man that was awesome,they are some great guitarist

Posted by: Hungus Aug 3 2007, 05:31 AM

Yhea Jeff is an amazing sweeper and Nevermore is a pretty sweet band but to be honest I find the vocals in it abit hungus for me to listen to very often.

Nevermore is really nice, This Godless Endeavour and Dead Heart in a Dead World are my favourite Nevermore albums. And if you like Nevermore, you'll probably like Communic too, dunno if you now them, but they became one of my favourite bands

Posted by: The Uncreator Aug 17 2007, 09:23 PM

^ Communic is awesome, havent heard much of there stuff lately, but what i have heard was pretty good.

Posted by: Davidian Aug 18 2007, 08:25 AM

Yup check out their new cd: Waves Of Visual Decay ! Not that much solo's like Nevermore but the riffs and the songs are very, very nice!

Jeff is the man!! Chris Broderick is amazing also

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 9 2007, 06:05 PM

His eight finger tapping is insane, i cant wait till i can do that someday

Posted by: FretDancer69 Dec 9 2007, 06:09 PM

Jeff Loomis looks exactly like Kane from WWE

Posted by: Toni Suominen Dec 10 2007, 02:11 PM

I think Jeff is a great songwriter also, he makes these monsterous riffs into songs that just amaze me!

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 10 2007, 03:28 PM

This Godless Endeavour has like 10,000,000 amazing riffs!!!

Posted by: Toni Suominen Dec 10 2007, 03:47 PM

Damn right it does!!!!! Enemies of reality has awesome riffs too!!

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 10 2007, 03:51 PM

Fact is, Any Nevermore album does!!

Amazing guitarists. Steve Smyth is also awesome but he is no longer with Nevermore.

Posted by: The Uncreator Dec 10 2007, 09:28 PM

What? since when?

I know Smyth had his Kidney transplant last year, and had to do some recuperating, but as far as i know, last time he was still planning on playing in nevermore.

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Dec 10 2007, 09:31 PM

No, he left because of, "personal differences".

Here is his new stuff.

Posted by: Toni Suominen Dec 10 2007, 09:35 PM

Steve was great, but I kinda prefer Chris Broderick I think Steve has also played with Testament, which is cool!

Posted by: Unleash-The-Shred Dec 10 2007, 09:42 PM

Yeah he played with Testament, Vicious Rumors, Nevermore, and Dragonlord. Now he is doing The EssenEss Project which I like a lot.

I still perfer Jeff Loomis.

Posted by: Slavenko Erazer Apr 25 2012, 09:08 AM

Jeff 's God!

He And Steve Smyth was best guitar duo!

Broderick's was good at Jag Panzer!
