To hear that and braving the dunes with REAL drums and a badass drummer is awesome! I remember an older album Merrow released as well, (sorry to mention, Keith, because it seems you were trying to bury it) and that album had some classic badass songs on it. Malfunction is badass! Or my nemesis, the drums from that song are SO fun to play, would LOVE to hear real drums for it. You make unique stuff Keith, keep making music!!

@Chief Thundrecock that's the biggest issue I have with full Album uploads... I mean, I want the Music but I also hate the idea that a Band or Artist is losing out on Money for their hard work. Ya know...
@Chief Thundrecock I understand that and agree with you. I myself, have a list of Albums I have yet to listen to, and as soon as I listen to it, if I like it and I can buy it.. I do. Then it goes onto my second/main list.. of Albums I own already... which started, in the first place with ones, I've owned for Years. I also think though that, it's good that the Monopoly of the likes of EMI and so on. Is dying... but it also makes it harder to make a living out of Music. Though.. for me... like when I do my Paintings (Yes, I use actual Paints... haha), I honestly am not trying make a profit... I just want to share my thoughts and feelings with others.. Therapy in a way.. but also.. just doing something I love. I guess. So of course, I'm not like Mr Merrow.. it's not my livelihood but I do feel like things are both better & worse for those making a living by making Music, nowadays. But hell, what do I know... just expressing my opinion. Anyways, thanks for the reply and sorry if my own is a little long. i just thought it fair to give a decent(ish) response. Hopefully you can understand. Regards, Kristian Simpson.
Keith - I've followed you for close to a decade now (ever since your Pillars of Creation clip video). You've evolved on every level as a musician, and seem to be just as humble as you were back then. A true inspiration for us fellow metalheads and musicians alike. Keep it metal man \m/
Damn, that's insane. I don't feel deserving of being included with names like that, but I definitely appreciate it. Those guys are big influences for me as well. Especially Kirk.
Heart Of The Sea Nymph is one of the best pieces of pure metal of all times. It's literally the 7 strings guitar Anthem. Even if I have to admit that I prefer the solo of the original version, but Jeff did an awesome job on the solo as always. Great album, and Keith is an awesome musician.
I would just like to point out, that Keith Merrow is by far, my favourite musician... ever! Your attention to good rhythm and riffs have yet to be matched, good sir! Never stop feeding your love of playing guitar. I look forward to anything you're involved in. Also, I'm SO glad to hear REAL drums on your actual work. I love your music because it's so rhythm-based and LOVE to play the drum patterns you programmed... speaking of which, Hats off to Krimh, as well, you delivered so well that heavy punch in the face and chest that Keith Merrows music deserves. Outstanding job guys! STAY METAL!!
Its official I need to upgrade to a 7 string." Keith" your work is without a doubt inspiring, not only to me but to my fingers. 🤘🤘🔥🔥 keep up the great work.
Hey man, just thought I'd pop by and quickly put my two pence worth in. I am not trying to be offensive. Not sure if it's an "upgrade"... I think really.. to be honest, it's like being able to play Bass and Guitar, you can play both and others. Look at John Paul John, ex Zeppelin... guy can play a ton of Instruments. Same goes for the average Musician and Player. Like me, I play an Electric 4-String Bass, Electric 6-string Guitar...also, standard Acoustic Guitar.. but also Piano.. Nothing stops you from playing 6-8 String Electric Guitars... you only have to look at Black Metal and so on, to see Musicians playing multiple instruments and same here with Keith. All I believe, is that there's no such thing as an 'upgrade' in Guitars or other Instruments. Again, that's just my opinion of course and if you want or feel the compulsion to buy extended range Instruments.. that's cool, but I just hope you don't take it that more strings, means somehow.. there's more talent.... I mean, would you say a Violin Player, that does solos for instance, is more talented than a Drummer, in the said same Orchestra, who holds in together and without it... the Orchestra would fail to work.. But hey, that's just my thought... what the hell do I know. Anyways... I hope you enjoy your Guitar... but before you do.. or don't spend at-least, $400 for a decent Extended Range Guitar... you should take time to think about it, listen to other players... but most importantly... try out a few different 7 and if you must, 8 string Guitars... see if you can cope with the extra Strings... wider Neck, etc. I recommend, trying out Schecter and Ibanez Models... I, again, am not trying to be offensive or whatever... just a Guy who's played Instruments for 20 Years, trying to help out... which I hope I have. Anyways, I wish you all the best. Regards, Kristian Simpson.
Just put bigger gauge strings on and tune your 6 string lower. Plenty of people do that. Look at Periphery, they use 6 strings and they play some shit in drop G.
Ok Keith. I purchased it due to the fact that I want you to keep hammering out amazing music. Thank you, and I'll give it a solid listen soon with no doubt that it's amazing from start to finish.
My god, I just get on here because I just wanted to see what Keith has been up to these days, then I see that there's a new album, and then I listen to it... And alas, I am again, sitting here wondering why my riffs are nowhere near as kick ass as this. Absolutely amazing stuff man! As always!
honestly, its been almost 2 weeks what I've listened to was JUST THIS ALBUM ...something that even I can't explain how great it is ... heavy, beautiful that takes you to the deepest point of darkness,,, somewhere out of NOWHERE ... FUCK ... specially Pythoness ... album artwork is sick as well ... HANDS DOWN SIR
This is just the best album I have ever heard, I really hope Keith does not get discouraged for the "low" impact it has compared to others. Keith, you changed my way to see music. This album will be probably noticed in future, people are not ready for this right now ahah I love the huge influences by classical music, I heard a lot of moonlight sonata by Beethoven into the wastrel, I can give you exactly the moment if u want!
The guitar tone and the songs you put together are without a pair in this world mate... This stuff literally cures cancer... I hope you are well and you will keep these awesome albums coming :)
Incredibly deep and emotionnely intense !! Thank you for you art Keith! Huge inspirations... They are all favorites for me (Would love to see all in playthrough) each one have a different vibes who we can jump easily in it, but all are connected to the same deep feeling. A Masterpiece.
That heart of the sea nymph and braving the dunes redo was awesome and a real fresh blast back to the past The rest of the album is awesome as per usual!
Hey man ever since I bought your KM7 FR-S in Lambo Blue I've been hooked on your music! Have listened to this album front-to-back well over 10 times already. My favourites are Heart of the Sea Nymph, The Wastrel AND THAT DROP ON PYTHONESS 20:11 HOW DID YOU DO THAT HOLY CRAP please make a playthrough video! blew my mind!
Keith, been following you since the Agile 7 string reviews many years ago. Whoever mixed this silenced (in my opinion) your best lead over the first section of Braving the Dunes. I’ve spent some time trying to find that song. I remember that that riff was introduced with a video where you were showing off a stained brown guitar built for you, that has since been deleted. Love your stuff, and really love this release, but man.. imo that lead over that VERY creative rhythm was my favourite thing you’ve ever done and this release does it no justice. Love everything else from this but maaaan, please do everyone a favour and let your best work shine.
The guitar tones that you create are simply breathtaking. Clarity, abbrassive brutality and the right amount of reverb to sit back in the mix while still standing tall in the mix. My question is, What pick-ups are you using? I'm going to start on a mod/build and am not sure what pickups to put in. I love mid output ceramics, but am willing to try anything that can handle high gain and depressingly hollow, yet warm clean tones. Nevermind, I just watched a full video on your pickups. WOW!
I still remember you releasing Lonestar Transcend on SSO ten years ago. I asked you what tuning you were using and was surprised to learn that you tuned your 7 up a half step and dropped the low (now) C to Bb. You really should do a real studio version of My Nemesis. Such an epic jam. I used to blast that track over and over. I still love it even with all your great work since!
New Keith is a instant yes! I'm strongly considering getting your latest 7 string. Unfortunately not the actual custom shop but man just the tone you get and how gnarly your rhythms are make me want it more. Been listening for years. Thank you and all involved for this release. Don't need to listen to it all to already know it's amazing.
@@williamraley2657 Thank you for the feedback. Just wishing upon a star at the moment, but I'd love to up my guitar game. Haven't bought one for 12 years now.
It may have been released the day before, but I'll consider it an unintended birthday gift nonetheless. Looking forward to receiving my hard copy and enjoying it many more times. Thanks for all your hard work Keith, you've been, and continue to be an inspiration.
I must commend this work here, I love the peak-era Opeth flavors like on Pythoness, and there is too much variety besides to pigeonhole the sound. It never feels like it needs vocals.
Ok, better late than never! Just discovered you today; while doing office work I like to discover new artists and it was your turn today... Man, your songwriting and arrangment skills are amazing, and you are highly original, not to say unique. Just purchased the CD and downloaded my digital version, and will most probably buy your guitar transcription book. Thanks for the great music!
Holy shit this is kicking my ass. The riffs and transitions are killer. Its refreshing to hear something different coming out lately, I've been sticking to the old school metal since most of what comes out nowadays sucks lol
This entire album is stunning. I. can't. stop. listening. to. it. Each and everytime I put it on I catch new mindblowing riffs and arrangements. I've seriously not been this pumped up over an Instrumental album in a very long time; truly exceptional, Keith.

Coven of Hags. I’ve listened to this album nonstop since it was released. Fantastic the entire way through.
Onieromancer
Aruspex!
Who listened to Heart of the Sea Nymph close to a decade ago? Great album, Mr. Merrow!
Thanks! Crazy to think, but that song was originally written around 2005ish. It was fun to revisit it.
I do!I did a cover too,and probably do another one on this take.still overwhelemed on that last riff.
Conquering Dystopia times as well, some of my best memories were with their songs as the background music and that one too xD
still prefer and hear the Jeff Loomis solo in my head every time, but side by side comparison, this new version has much better and darker tone
To hear that and braving the dunes with REAL drums and a badass drummer is awesome!
I remember an older album Merrow released as well, (sorry to mention, Keith, because it seems you were trying to bury it) and that album had some classic badass songs on it. Malfunction is badass! Or my nemesis, the drums from that song are SO fun to play, would LOVE to hear real drums for it. You make unique stuff Keith, keep making music!!

What does Onieromancer mean? Is it a misspelling of Oneiromancer? Just wondering
@Chief Thundrecock I understand that and agree with you.

Therapy in a way.. but also.. just doing something I love. I guess.
So of course, I'm not like Mr Merrow.. it's not my livelihood but I do feel like things are both better & worse for those making a living by making Music, nowadays.

Heart Of The Sea Nymph was the best pickup comparison vid I ever watched.
Truth!
The riff king has returned!!!! You, Kirk Windstein, Dime and Jerry Cantrell are my favorite riff gods of all time! So fucking heavy!!!!!
Damn, that's insane. I don't feel deserving of being included with names like that, but I definitely appreciate it. Those guys are big influences for me as well. Especially Kirk.

Incredibly deep and emotionnely intense !! Thank you for you art Keith! Huge inspirations...
They are all favorites for me (Would love to see all in playthrough) each one have a different vibes who we can jump easily in it, but all are connected to the same deep feeling. A Masterpiece.
Oh boy, I think you'll need to play the whole album as play-through; the whole album is pure piece of art.
This is one of the best albums I've ever heard man. I love that dark light vibe
can't stop listen to this album ... awesome
Truly inspirational..that tone is crushing btw
Listening to this gives a ton inspiration due to the fact it sounds like nothing out there!
Listening the 1st time and only heard Desolate Horizons so far. The solo at the end was frigging beautiful, so complementary to the rest of the song.
That heart of the sea nymph and braving the dunes redo was awesome and a real fresh blast back to the past
The rest of the album is awesome as per usual!
This is some of the best guitar playing I've ever heard
I've never heard this before this afternoon, and I must say, it's fukn excellent. First time hearing Merrow. Which album do I look for next?
check out his old project he did called "Alluvial" specifically the album "The Deep Longing for Annihilation" you'd love it if you dug this album!

Well equalized and with a touch of good taste in riffs.
Incredible. Nuff said
I've been waiting for this for years!
