Expanding, evolving, exploring, and enchanting are all applicable when describing the orbit of All Them Witches. Since their 2016 Rig Rundown, the quartet have continued pursuing their sonic mission, unbound by anything but regeneration. Their never-ending musical mutation has yielded three more individualistic, intrepid releases since our last check-in. Sleeping Through the War, in 2017, explored more purposeful, mystical songcraft cloaked in hypnotic, rambunctious rock. For 2018’s ATW, the band’s IV-like retreat (substitute Headley Grange for a Tennessee cabin) extracted a doomier, more chaotic side A equally matched by a side B that’s a psychedelic painkiller. And 2020’s Nothing as the Ideal shows the temporary power trio (drummer Robby Staebler completes the line-up) striking a levitating balance within a menacing, mortar of metal that binds and anchors their emotive, effervescent excursions. (Drop the needle on closer “Rats in Ruin” and let it wash over you.)
Just before their sold-out show at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium (on Halloween, no less), Witches guitarist Ben McLeod and bassist/vocalist Charles Michael Parks Jr. welcomed PG’s Chris Kies onstage to re-chronicle their setups. The resulting conversation covers their modified war horses, deciphers their esoteric stacks, and reveals the secrets of the “doom broom.” Plus, we get hip to new builder Elad Shapiro of Dale Amps.

For whoever screamed All Them Witchhats: Your joke was not ignored and I laughed
PERRY!
What's the joke? If you don't mind. TY in advance
💃✌
@@111... No problem! Ben is talking about the knobs on his guitar. The type of vintage knobs have always been nicknamed 'witch-hats', because they resemble the hat of a witch. When they mention ' Witch hats' , someone in the background (apparently named Perry) makes a pun, and yells All Them WitchHats!
@@skeletonmodel thank you!
@@111... Its at the beginning of the video
As a gen z rock fan, I didn't get to see many original bands progress from infancy to household name status, but ATW is a band I've been watching closely since their firstt album and they've just delivered banger after banger. They deserve every ounce of success and more
Agreed! I met the guys at a Primus/Mastodon show they were opening and they were the best live act of the show! I had them sign my copy of Sleeping Through The War cause I know everyone will be jealous of it when they become legends
@@Major_Fuzzz I feel we are in the thick of it now! I just can feel it in the air and they are selling out all their show in Europe and basically sells them all out in the USA 🇺🇸. Thanks to ATW I just got a ticket to see /experience King 🦬 who I feel deserve the same love as ATW❤
I saw them all nights in Denver. All them witches rock !
Also Bens side project like El Castillo and Woodsplitter are so rad. El Castillo is so chill and wood splitter metal as hell
I haven’t listened to this band at all, but as soon as this is over I’m gonna check them out. These guys are awesome.
It's so warming to hear someone say "I love this guitar".
31:55 Whenever i see a beautiful Rickenbacker Bass of Honor all i think is CLIFF BURTON
and i get inspired to play Bass while putting my Black Guitars in hold
even if it is a strangely cool looking mutilated bass like this
My fav band in the whole world and now they got Allan back. We don't deserve this
Blues driver through that twin sounds sick
Their 2016 rundown was the first time I'd heard of ATW. Bought their albums and saw them play in Bristol UK. Looking forward to seeing them again some day.
Same for me and I'd have seen them in Bristol as well if I hadn't been away working
For anyone who hasn't seen it, look up Ben McLeod playing a note-for-note cover of Statesboro blues. Insane player
Saw them in Chicago the other night. Was a grand time. Love Bens tone.
Would love an official corrosion of conformity rig rundown 🤘🏼
I love Ben! One of the most talented and innovative guitarists out there right now. Very cool dude, as well.
I agree. ATW is thriving and i am gonna eat it up. Support them as I can! I met parks at the Aggie and he was tired from their tour but was a super nice man! Great memory for me to last
Ah what a band. My fav. Wish they came to Canada.
Thanks to PG for the video. Always intructive.
I'm listening to their latest record in a loop. One of the best bands I've ever heard! Absolutely great!
Love this band!!! Thanks for doing/sharing this updated rig rundown!
Our pleasure!
These rigrun downs are great, and funny as well. Good job guys.
Ben: thank you for representing all of us out here with a pedalboard that we can all actually have, too. Super straightforward pedal choices that are not out of our world. Great rig rundown--thanks PG. BEST OF LUCK TO DALE AMPS! Can't wait to see em in GuitarCenter! $$$$$$$
Well, you can spend on effects , or spend on guitars and amps.Their boards are affordable, but the other gear, NSM.
Personally, I've long employed, and no doubt depend, on a mixture of pedals and alt tunings to achieve a sound.ATW are more straightforward in their techniques, which I also fully appreciate.
While I've no doubt layed a lot out in effects, I've built all my ( Fender style) guitars myself, and use more affordable amps like the Egnater Tweaker, and lower watt Ampeg's, instead of the higher end stuff that easily runs into thousands.When you're using amps like that, it's almost a shame to get the sound from elsewhere.Might have as much invested in speakers and cabs as in amps.They can make a huge difference.
My god, the guitarists tone is *butter*.
Best band I've heard in a long time
Thank you for 30:49 min. Shout out to Chris Kies for all of us Amp nerds. That Dale amp is a monster!
Saw them in Chicago just recently, was almost right in front of Ben. I can still feel that Dale amp in my chest
Been a huge fan of these guys since the first rundown. So glad to see they weathered the pandemic. Especially with Allen back in the mix. Amazing group.
Greatest band of the Decade.. Last album is one of the greatest i've ever heard...
Those Cut up Ricky basses are kinda awesome
Amazing band, just saw them early December, second time seeing them and they're only getting better
The part where the host says “NO WAY” when Ben said the Marshall takes fuzzes well had me dying
“Doom Broom” I love the name!
Best band around
Yes!!!! Keep doing more Stoner Rock bands!!!! @PremierGuitar
Awesome band, awesome video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
See you in Warsaw Poland. CANT WAIT!
I was at the Ryman auditorium on Halloween 🎃🤘🏾..soul shaking show
Love this band. Bummed I missed them in Detroit but hope they come back!
“FOD” is Foreign Object Debris on an airport runway. It can be perilous, such as when the Concorde jet crashed due to the effects of a FOD strike in 2000.
Love this band!!
I live on the Eastern Shore of Maryland literally like 30 minutes or so from Greensboro.. Knaggs guitar is awesome and it's so cool that my favorite band plays an instrument that is made by a local business.
Yessssss one of my favourite bands!
agree 100% on putting Warehouse speakers inside a twin. such a great combination
Respect for the man re the note he wrote for security in his guitar case lol. Legend.
According to the Knaggs website, the scale length of the Honga is 24.75", so the same than a Les Paul.
I just discovered this band! So sick
That was one epic show. Devils night in the mother church. The fog was glowing orange. Saw Michael walking out into the alley afterwards, the same alley that hank Sr is supposed to haunt. Told him thanks for the religious experience and left him to process the previous 2 hours in the cool damp air. Hope to see y'all and sing happy birthday at exit/in again one new years. Stand up guys playing from their hearts.
Kenny Vaughan is really great. His solo on I Still Long for Your Kiss from his Austin city limits performance with Lucinda Williams is probably the best thing on TH-cam.
they were talking about his Les Paul always being out of tune and no one said "All them Pitches". that was clearly a perfect opportunity.
Fuck that noise. that bass is sick
Man that low E is so floppy on the Knaggs, love it.
Yooo! Loved when the amp dude came out and talked amps!
Love rig run downs. One request to consider: if you could put time stamps for different major sections (especially for any sound examples of the different gear). Would be so useful. Even if it is just in the website version and not on TH-cam description. I don’t often have time to watch the whole video for every rig run down. (For example: I looked around a bit and never found the sound example of the heavy amp mentioned in this one).
But great great series, thank you for continuing to do.
Great suggestion, Jason. We always put the time stamps in the Rundowns before it gets shared via TH-cam, but we can do that earlier knowing it benefits the viewers who watch before it gets released fully. Also, 30:38 is when Ben kicks on the Dale Amps firebreather.
@@premierguitar oh that’s great to know and thank you so much! Very kind of you to respond with the time stamp. Thanks again for your great work!
Cool, merci.
Sad to see that mangled Rick bass get put on the shelf but it sounds like it’s been past its usable life for a while now lmao
Oh he plays it just not as much. I was there that night and he broke a string half way through and he played the OG. I was so excited
Please do an Acid Dad rig rundown
Perfect burst on that Trad.
Glad I came across this video! I absolutely love their music. Very down to earth guys. Great video...
Welcome aboard!
Hey they are going to be in Texas January 2022🤟
@@jjo.4717 awesome! I'll look it up... Thanks
You must do one with john dwyer from osees
I've been waiting for that for so long. Hes using a shot ton of stuff now too so itd be a great one
Love my honga, it rips!
Caught these guys in Orlando, best show I've seen in a long time
That was a great show!
Love the Cousin Kenny Vaughn reference!
Love that guy
Its interesting how Ben percieves the Bare knuckle Mules to be of higher output even though the Super Distortion is a ceramic magnet with a high resistance (almost 14komh) and the Mules are a PAF clones with AlNiCo 4 magnets and a resistance of 8.4kohm. Im thinking Knaggs either put in something more aggressive in his guitar or its just a frequency thing since the Mules are much more mid forward
it looks like Ben's Dale amp is called the David Hamelech, or the "King David" or "David the king"
actually they all say that
Ben makes me want a fender twin and bluesdriver to pair with my Rockerverb lol take my $
Volume pedals can also work very well for my instrumental Doommetal music as well
5:30 ahhhh loved whenever a new under looked brand i had no idea that existed shows to display EXACTLY the kind of beauty that i love on my kind of Guitars
is just for me, BLACK SG-Like Model is all you have to say to me
specially with that kind of rare stealthy Gothic beauty that screams METAL so hardcore
Is Dale just Elad spelled backwards?
Love how the dude spells Honga and the time stamp still misspells it
Their song "The Children of Coyote Woman" is fantastic and the whole album is great.
Parks is an only musician with a blood stained bass guitar that i can feel safe around
I'll take that Dale. Hurry up and take my money please. I bet the 100watt version will slay worlds.
I'm not familiar with these guys but that guitar tone is godly!
Any album recommendations for a newcomer?
they have a great KEXP from a bunch of years ago. Thats what got me introduced to them
Dying surfer meets his maker
&
Nothing as the ideal
The latter starting with a song called Saturnine & iron jaw should hook you up
@@mynmyself That's the first thing i've watched as I was searching for their music! Awesome show!
@@johnjohnjak5160 Awesome, thanks
I would agree on Dying Surfer. Lightning at the door as well. But doesn’t really matter, within a week you’ll have them all on repeat
That SG “Custom” is naught.
aren't Mule pickups supposed to be low output?
FOD = "F*ck Off and Die" last track of the Green Day album Dookie. It's the non custom artwork pedal of the MXR Dookie pedal.
LONG LIVE THE BLUES DRIVER.
DOOM BROOM! 🤘👽👽👽
Exactly right . Having your guitar in the monitor as the only way you hear yourself SUCKS. A full band mix only necessary on a silent stage with the dreaded InEARS. Unless your helping Haul gear Leave the Princeton home please.
Awesome band and rundown, but that sg is literally just a standard lmao, it has the standard trapezoid inlays and the crown inlay on the headstock, its 100% a standard. Still cool
Yes that part was funny.
How could he not see its a Standard?!
Oh wait hes a bassplayer! :-p
Whoa. This is insane. They seemed like they just got endorsed by Hiwatt. I wonder what happened with that relationship and why they went from clean amps to needing these high gain amps.
I believe hiwatt provides their European back line
A twin reverb with volume at 2,5?
how did michael split the signal?
Those are not witch hat knobs on the Les Paul. Actual witch hat knobs are on the Ness Custom Doom Broom though.
It has two speed knobs (volume) and two witch hats (tone pots)
That's what he said. He took off the witch hats for speed knobs.
this band rules
"So what's that in layman's terms?"
"It just has something I don't like"
Hahaha that was great!
Shit! I think I may have thumbed this comment down by accident, didn't mean it!
Well it looks like I am buying a BD-2
The knaggs honga literally has the same scale length as Gibson, 24.75"
Sorry :)
You're a brilliant guitar player dude, thanks for the great music and I hope you guys come play in France one day!
If I had to choose one band to listen to... These guys!
Tell me ya got LA Witch too!!!
They weren't on this run.
No drum rundown?
IMMEDIATELY clicked on this
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
more then likely the "Best Band in Modern Times" by a 1,000 country miles*
So he doesn't use a noise gate? I use one but that's because I suck really bad and I can't yet control very well those little annoying sounds. Do these pro players just not make those kinds of horrible sounds so they don't use a noise gate?
Parks is hilarious.
Bassist reminds me of Henry Cavill
The FOD? More like dafuq amirite?
He clearly lied about not knowing about humbuckers without covers lol, such nonsense
It's a pity the drums are not a part of the band anymore.

@@premierguitar .. Thanks 🙏😎
Do not like this bands vibe they are too cool for school!!!!
So why did you come here in the first place??
Your not cool unless you through a indie amp!!!
These's guys are such hipsters
Are you senile? Why would you post multiple stupid comments under a video instead of a single one?
Chris; do is all a favor, drop the tee, keep the stach. You can’t have both, this is rock n’ roll, not I.T.
Anybody who puts a dead head sticker on thier gear has problems!!! This band only has 2 good songs
I don't have enough dead head stickers.
@@bmac8810 one can never have enough Dead stickers! Anyone who that knows understands that! Dale amps are what my dreams are made of…🔥
Those dudes are just as cool as I thought they would be.
