Being in a band can be a mercurial experience. Internal combustion and outside factors can make any promising group crash and burn before reaching cruising altitude. Plus, it’s never been easier to replace bothersome bandmates with plugins and software. So in 2015, Wes Hauch paused all his various death-metal day jobs (formerly with the Faceless, Thy Art Is Murder, Glass Casket, and Black Crown Initiate) and started Alluvial as a brain break and artistic challenge to scratch itches previously unreachable.
“I started to think about putting a band together that was everything that I missed about what wasn’t going on in heavy music,” Hauch told PG in 2021.
He teamed up with fellow shredder Keith Merrow and the duo put their darkest emotions into the instrumental project. They built everything from the ground up and The Deep Longing for Annihilation was self-released in 2017. It (beautifully) bludgeoned the ears of Animals as Leaders’ Javier Reyes, who wanted to take out Alluvial on tour. And now Hauch needed a band… his band.
While writing his next batch of material that would ultimately evolve into 2021’s Sarcoma (released on Nuclear Blast), Hauch recruited singer Kevin Muller (Suffocation and The Merciless Concept) and drummer Matt Guglielmo to fill everything out. The results are like someone dropped a Shelby GT500 inside an excavator primed to pummel granite. Death metal might be its blanket, but there’s more lurking under the covers. The second album has moments of blitzkrieg (“Sarcoma”), allusions to Greg Ginn playing in an extreme metal band (“The Putrid Sunrise”), and even hallucinatory respites (“40 Stories”).
“I’m always trying to find something that’s a different sort of rhythmic motif for metal, just to see if it's going to work, and if it's going to make people feel it, or if it’s going to make me feel it,” stated Hauch.
Now Alluvial is a full four horsemen with bassist Tim Walker and drummer Zach Dean, who both have been playing live with Hauch and Muller and contributed to their forthcoming EP Death Is But A Door.
“I wanted to have a band where we can write meaningful yet action-packed songs. Something that is terrifying but breaks your heart at the same time. I think we’ll always chase that, but we want to find new ways to be heavy” Hauch reflected.
Alluvial seems to be avoiding any turbulence during their ascent with just one thing in mind: gatherings through gain.
“I want to go play with everyone … all the people that enjoy the message that’s usually coupled with that distorted guitar,” said Hauch. “And for anyone who’s checking this out, I want to say thank you, because it’s hard to get anyone to participate in your art these days. The fact that people are, I’m very grateful.”
Ahead of Alluvial’s opening slot supporting Intervals and Tesseract at Nashville’s Brooklyn Bowl, founding guitarist (and lead headbanger) Wes Hauch and bassist Tim Walker welcomed PG’s Chris Kies onstage to explore their tools of destruction. Hauch highlighted his main 7-string Ibanez shred sticks-including his signature set of Seymour Duncan Jupiter Rails humbuckers-and detailed the great lengths he went to capture his favorite Boogie and Friedman sounds in his Kemper for the band’s “get-the-fuck-out-of-the-way rig.” Then Walker quickly spotlighted his Ibanez blackout 5-string bass-and the mods he’s made-plus explained the motive behind matching a rackmount Helix with a fridge-sized Ampeg 6x10.

hi PG. was told 12/6 will be christone kingfish rig rundown, will it be uploaded soon? or in the next one?
Wes is one of the best guitarists alive right now and deserves more recognition. He also has one of the most terrifying stares I’ve ever seen
Well he does have PTSD from Iraq so those eyes have seen some shit
I've seen Alluvial live 2 or 3 times in New England and they're brutal as all hell. Sick dudes too, Wes is always so grateful for everyone coming out to see them and always has time to say hello. That builds a fan-base.
this. ive seen them live in Nijmegen once and holy shit they are amazing
Not only is Wes super talented, he’s a total bro. Glad to see these guys getting some attention
So sick, Wes is one of the best modern metal players on the planet.
Sick chops, sick tone, a certified riff master and shredder from hell!
Now if Ibanez would just make him a signature Iceman.
YES!!! Alluvial are AWESOME. Im still waiting for Ibanez to do that fixed bridge style Iceman as a Wes Sig SO much. Id love to own it!!!
Fingers crossed!
It’s incredibly awesome to see Wes be getting some notoriety. He’s been awesome in everything he’s done. I love the alluvial record he did with the great Kieth Merrow and the 1st alluvial record he did with vocals is one my favorite records ever. Total riff master and can absolutely shred. All hail the hauch!!!
Wes has changed guitar tone forever. He achieved the sound metal tone hunters have searched for since the first time they practiced Rose of Sharyn on their gio and Spyder2(insane mode- not the artist fx stuff, a purist.)
Harmonically balanced sludge. Beautiful.
I am so stoked for this one. Wes is my favorite guitarist and is in a league of his own
My band WhatDrivesTheWeak had the honor of being direct support for Alluvial on one of their shows towards the end of 2022. Wes was such a humble and chill person to meet. Tim and Wes together had one of the best tones I’ve ever heard live. I’ve since got Wes’ kemper pack and it sounds and feels incredible
Hauch, Loomis, and Broderick are massively underrated guitar virtuosos. 3 of my OG heroes and im happy to see Wes on a rundown and getting some brand deals.
Wes rules. Glad to see him getting more attention 🤘
Wes looks like his tone sounds. The absolute best in the biz!
I gotta have those Metal Gear Solid .73 picks that Tim uses, but i can't find them anywhere on the interwebs...
Also, both of these dudes are S++ tier, thanks for doing this @Premier Guitar !
The new Alluvial EP has Wes becoming one of my favorite guitar players out there right now. So many cool things about his playing and tones. Really developing his own thing. Wish this was a full length album. I need more.
I met Wes once back in the day with the faceless and he was just a super cool guy. Talked gear and shop stuff with me for a while and I’ve been following him hard ever since.
Waking up to see a Wes rig rundown made my day. One of the best in the scene today.
One of my favourite guitarists of recent times! This dude can write killer solos at the same time write some groovy ass riffs 🤘
One of the cleanest guitar players today. Insanely technical and smooth
Awesome seeing Wes getting some major love and attention... since I am a fellow Seymour Duncan pickups user as well. His pickup are super hot
Wes is a super killer guitarist.🤘🤘🎸
Awesome Rig Rundown
Wes is a good time. Always like his gear nerd knowledge and throws in his humor for good measure 🤘🏽
Sweet. Been wondering if this would happen. Would be cool to see Brandon Ellis too.
The fucking GOATS
We want a rectifier shootout with the Boogie Brothers Wes & Fluff to show off your fave M/B amps
@@premierguitarthis HAS to happen!
Seen them 2 times. Killer band and very nice dudes. Extremely approachable
Been waiting for this. Thank you PG and Alluvial!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Ever since I heard the guest solo on Mile Zero from Periphery by some guy named Wes Hauch I've been obsessed with his ability to play guitar.
A band with 3 guitarists needed a "guest solo"? LOL
Vogg and Wes Signature Ibanez when??
Give the people what they want, Ibanez!
Vogg is with Jackson now.
@@TheCadegoodspeed45 Well that's a sad bit of news I didn't expect to hear today :(
Happy for him tho
Been saying the same thing for years. Wes and Vogg are wildly underappreciated players.
@@svelle37 It's good news. Jackson makes sick guitars too and Vogg is getting some sponsorship money. Everyone wins.
Wes is a beast of a player. This is sweet!
If you have a chance to see this band live don't miss it. they're SO gnarly
Im so happy watching this. Wes is a monster of a musician and totally deserves more time in the spotlight
Wes is the man!
Wes seems like a real down to earth dude, good interview. 🤙
Wes is the best. Dude knows his shit and is very underrated.
Duuude.. Wes is THE guy. I love Alluvial.
wes is the baddest player in metal. dude can do it all.
Chris Kies always comes prepared and asks the right questions
I'm surprised that more people don't play the Iceman. They're some of the best guitars. Balance, resonance, customization, and ease of play.
WES HAUCH SIGNATURE MODEL HOLY SHIT
Homie deserves it!
I was literally about to get the Iron Label Iceman, but I'll wait for this instead
Hell yeah dude, Wes is the man, total guitar samurai. Cool seeing Tim's rig too, dude tames a pretty monster set-up.
Couldn't agree more!
This dude knows the ins and outs of guitars.
This venue is a bowling alley as well? That’s pretty crazy
Brooklyn Bowl in Nashville baby! All strikes, no gutters!
Great rundown video. Saw Alluvial recently on the Tesseract tour, and they just killed it. I met Wes and Kevin (vocals) after the show, and they were very nice. I’m still a dyed in the wool tube amp guy, but using Kempers or any other digital platform through a power amp and a cabinet definitely sounds great in its own right.
There are many cool Rig Rundowns but these two really seem like the coolest dudes. 😄 🙏
They are!
Most badass Iceman I’ve ever seen.
who else started listening to Alluvial after this episode?! Holy shit are they fucking good!
I love wes so so much. He is such a talent. His riffs are sick and his lead playing is second to none. Really wish pantera would have picked him. I get why zakk is doing it but it would have sounded closest to dime if wes did it. He respects the pantera stuff so much down to the tone. He would be up there with the full dime rig and guitar
Wes’s phase widener trick with the Kemper works great and sounds amazing!
String gauge discussion surprised me. Good to know and awesome interview!
Met Wes in Munich when they tore the place down with Creeping Death, Goatwhore and Revocation. Had an absolute bro moment with him. Very laid back an friendly dude. I am absolutely delighted about the recognition him and the band gets now.
Just saw the Acacia Strain twice on their last tour and the guitar sounded top notch
I saw these guys in Nashville as my introduction to them and I’ve been a fan since! They absolutely go hard! I caught their drummers drumstick at that show too!
Wes thanks for serving this country and God bless you for the killer riffs
Smart man, Wes - i would definitely do what vogg and frederik say!
Wes an myself went to a bros wedding together in San Diego around 08 or so and had a great time. Had a hilarious incident in the kitchen. He was a monster player then, and has only gotten better since.
Wes is the man and clearly knows his stuff. What a dude!
This is the video we all have been waiting for
I always get poked in the stomach with the iceman horn
D'Addario is the only sting I've used for bass since the 1980s. Nothing else lasts.
man Wes is looking badass with the long hair
the best dudes! such a killer band. see them live if you can.
Hell yeah, Wes!
I was in the Navy with Wes and he was such a cool dude. I had just started playing guitar and he was a badass back then too, but he always complemented me on my playing. Even though it was probably garbage at that time😂
Wes is rad. Wish I would have seen alluvial. Or that wes would have toured with Dev.
Awesome guitarist..
Indeed!
Wes seems like such a down to earth guy.✌️
Hell yeah
Tim's Selena shirt is such a funny curve ball 😂
WORKING ON SOMETHING WITH IBANEZ?! LETS FUCKING GO!!! 16:01
Wes and Tim are cool AF. They're kinda dorks and it's fucking awesome lol
As a bass player, those BTBs are cool but fuck that top horn is uncomfortable! Really don't care for the Bartolinis though. I have a feeling Tim didn't care for them either since he swapped them out. I'd go after one again with those Nordstrand pickups
Very cool vid, I mainly play guitar now but started on bass so I’m interested in those pickup’s he dropped in there. Gotta check em out.
The bassist is such a cool cat
Wes is a legend
I've never heard of this band but the fact that they use an Iceman makes me incredibly fucking happy because you really don't see a lot of them nowadays but I first discovered them because of Daron Malakian playing them with System of a Down (and the sole reason why I want to try and find one) and immediately fell in love with them and plus you have Paul Stanley who helped make them popular back in the '70s,
Hell yeah!!
Wes, don't you tempt us with a signature model!
Wes cracks me up and I don't think he means to. The funniest thing I heard him say was about Lyle Cooper. Ofc I'm paraphrasing...
"He's much more healthy than us, he eats bananas." 😂
Tim with the Selena Quintanilla shirt!
14:01 I always heard that wiring the sustainiac can be a bit problematic and if not done properly it creates tons of feedback and unwanted noise which most certainly keeps the average bedroom player away from it. Guys like Vai don't have to worry about that shit, they have professional techs lol
I have two 7 strings. I only use the "Jupiter" (7 string) bridge pickup, with a "Sentient" in the neck of one, and the other doesn't have a neck pickup.
Both custom shop models (pre-production). I'll never look for another pickup for my 7's.
Wes is so sick
ANDY PITCHER SHOUTOUT!!!!!
oh snap!!!!
FINALLY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sarcoma is a masterpiece 👊🏽
Wes is a dude!!
wes da man
I switched to a 7 even for 6 string stuff and am not looking back. It happens to be a 7 string ICTB...
Creature From The Black Lagoon in a Bowling Alley
Wes are you using heavy duty springs from FU Tone on that ibby? Or standard .Thanks
🙌🙌🙌
MONSTER ❤
Great coverage.
I'd love to give 25 1/2 scale iceman of his a riff test. Hopefully that will be the scale lengh of a signiture he's working on 🤞
Unfortunately doesn't sound like it. He was talking about the signature having a 27" scale with a trem.
@@finnthedogg4521 very true. Either way, im still going to try it out if it gets released.
@@everydayperson764 hell ya dude they're beautiful instruments
Yesss light string gang 🤝
Anyone know what the first song was? Sounds so sick
Goddd I wanted to see them so bad with tesseract and intervals but their tour bus broke down, super unfortunate
Looking for that ABM fine tuner tailpiece. Anyone got a link? Not seeing on their site.
Wes 😍
Kinda workin on something with Ibanez at the moment?? 👀
Anybody know what song they play on the beginning of the video?
DID tshirt ftw!
a .78 goddamn bruh?!!!! Is there where the mass of his riffs comes from?
