You've got great tone, but all of those riffs except for the harmonised lead one sounded like they could be different parts of the exact same song. Doom metal fans are an odd bunch, like they only wanna listen to one song forever.

Audhumbla blew my mind the first time I heard it. Still one of my all time favorite riffs.

[spudeism]

Would love to Top 10 Weedeater R I F F S.
I personally cant get enough of Truck Drivin' Man, Calico and Lines.

[vaidotasratkus]

Monolord has amazing deep fuzz. And riffs are just hypnotizing. Good job

[timothyh]

saw them last weekend, this was basically the set list lol

[BubbaZanetti_]

Right when I thought your channel couldn't get any better...killed it again, brother! 🔥🤘🏻

[OmegaStationMusic]

Great riffs choice and awesome tone as always!

[geroschorch]

[microwaveableselfie]

Really killer channel, since the beginning I’ve been impressed. LOVE the Paso inferior merch by the way, real good stuff

[ABoyd]

Great tone. Great playing.

Audhumbla is my #1 tho. I love that riff.

[jaredt]

Monolord fucking RULES, one of my favorite bands ever.
Hey you should do one of these for Yob, one of my other favorite bands. Fuck I love Yob and Monolord!
Great video man!

[frankcastillo]

I play along with this making my own death song solo cooolll

[TealScarab]

Should’ve put “I’m Staying Home” on the list, that’s a good riff!!

[snow]

imo you should've added the melodic riff (at around 4:42) from ill be damned instead of the intro riff.

[tylerrosier]

Sick tones! Toke would be an awesome one!

[pablogomez]

Cool video ! Really nice tone 👌🏻 I can't help to notice that you play some of this riffs in a very different way they are actually played by Thomas V Jagger though. It just sounds a little different. Were you tuned in B standard ? Also did you use the katana ? I would be very grateful if you'd share the settings for such a tone ? Anyways good work and thanks for sharing ! Cheers from France.

[mirkohirsch]

Your tone is on point! What amp are you playing through or s it straight into interface?

[gibson]

WHat signal chain was recorded? did you use amp sims, or a real amp?

[Erisblackstone]
