Finally man , now Jeff must make a band and give us some metal ala Loomis style like he did with Nevermore..
Well besides his solo project he has Conquering Dystopia and he is Alcatrazz now. Hope he has other projects in the future.
im familiar with his solo project and on every song i could almos listen to warrens voice in my head and i was like ... oh man .. i miss nevermore @@watcherzero000
AMEN! He needs his own kick-ass band that had that power of Nevermore (whom I'd seen 4 album tours, one of which they headlined; "Dead Heart in a Dead World Tour" and "Opeth" opened for on their _Blackwater Park_ tour), but "Conquering Dystopia" was a great musical outlet (as well-as his solo albums). I'm surprised Loomis has been in AE for "9 years"! Wow.
But Jeff! Grab your friend "Van Williams" to drum again, he is TOO underrated and should be well known. The man is a MACHINE!
Jeff is a prog metal player all the way his years in Arch Enemy were great but as a solo artist he can now bring more of the complex side of his playing. on a side note the only reason he was rejected from megadeth was at the time Dave Mustaine thought he was too young. Jeff was 18 at the Megadeth audition. Good luck jeff with whatever you do frome here on out.
I’ve been an AE fan since wages of sin. Seen them a few times. They are awesome live. That being said, JL playing for arch enemy is like using a Ferrari to go grocery shopping.
I'm a metal fan, but also total music illiterate. What was so wrong about him being in Arch Enemy?
Loomis is easier in the top 5 of metal guitarist ever, at the same level of monsters like friedman, becker, broderick, malmsteen but with angrier riffs in his solos, arch enemy its all about Amott, he always want to do everything and with a musician of the loomis.lvl you cant do that @@Pravdacz-tp8zu
@@Pravdacz-tp8zuJeff Loomis is a wicked guitarist. Now I've only heard Arch Enemy like once but I am a guitarist so it seems to me that his talents aren't being utilized in Arch Enemy to fullest and that he could be doing way more music wise. Think putting a guy like Jimi Hendrix are Marty Friedman in a band like ACDC
Loomis has something planned. Can't wait. Beast of a player!!!!!!!
Jeff and Michael are two of my favorite guitarists. Sucks he left but wherever Jeff lands he’s gonna be freaking EPIC
Seeing Jeff perform in 2022 with my fav album was one of the greatest moments of my life. What a talent!
I saw him when he was in Nevermore back in 2004 with Into Eternity and Dimmu Borgir.
Let’s go. I’m hyped to see what the future holds for him.
Welcome Joey. He's a great player. Good luck Jeff! I'll miss you.
Dude easy on the cheese now ok?
@@cortarelva Joey has played in AE before and he's worked for years with none other than Christopher Amott. It's really hard to be disappointed at this point.
I want another full instrumental album from Jeff ! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Fantastic news for the awesome Loomis!!!!
Joey has been a part of the family for a long time, no news heard of him joining tour, let's wait if he will be able to contribute to writing...
What was Jeff doing in Arch Enemy is beyond my understanding. He was way too good for that band.
I’m gonna miss you so much Jeff
Jeff, from a talent perspective, is beyond this band! Has been from the get-go TBH! Somehow I am sure due to Amotts' crappy ego because he felt Jeff's writing skills did not fit the band's style, it was time for Jeff to get out of that cage. Jeff is a stand-up guy! Didn't we see a similar situation with Kiko with Mustaine? In any event, congrats to Joey as he's been around and is nothing short of a virtuoso.
Was going to also comment something along the lines of Amott resembling Mustaine more and more. Let's be honest - we all knew what this was for Loomis and that it was about time to move on.
@@MoCarcassthey’re both influenced by Michael schenker have red hair and ego but Jeff loomis almost joined megadeth when he was 16 I wonder if he would last longer if teemu ends up being temporary
A talent like Loomis cannot be expected to play second fiddle (for too long), i.e., what happened in Arch Enemy would have been/be inevitable in Megadeth (just as it's happened to Marty, Kiko, etc.).@@michaelgrahamwongacutemadness
One of my all time favorite guitarists yet I was still never compelled to listen to Arch Enemy.
Take a listen to the 1st 3 albums with "Johan Liiva" on vocals, when they were heavier, a bit more complex, and had the "Buzzsaw" tone to their guitars, and those memorable melodic melodies/hooks in contrast to the brutality of that era.
As much as I like arch enemy, im exited to see what jeff does next. He is amazing. Joey is ok, he will fit right in as far as style goes, but he is no Jeff Loomis.
I'm a fan of both Jeff and Joey and your comment is unwarranted
Joey is more than just an OK guitar player,listen to his solo stuff,and look at Arch Enemy Summer Breeze 2018 where he filled in for Jeff Loomis,the man is insane.
Hi Jeff Hi Joey
Jeff Loomis is a class act and a great talent but Arch Enemy is an awesome band and they’ll do well
Great news Jeff was wasted talent in that band.
I'm shocked he didn't leave sooner. You can't expect someone to stay in a band when they can't contribute to the songwriting.
Said everyone everywhere
Jeff is the best guitarist on the planet!It’s not a problem for him !
Joey unleashing his wicked riffs with Arch Enemy? Damn, that's a dark and electrifying alliance! Embrace the chaos, bro!"
they wasted no time addressing the news like you said but also wasted the talent of Jeff loomis and harmed their own reputation with that photography scandal
Handshake with hell has the best solo.
If you constantly are being told to what to play and not being allowed to contribute by writing a song, it can only be fun that long.
Reunite Nevermore or I would love tk play drums with Jeff
NEVERMORE
First Kiko leaving Megadeth, now this? Oh well, hopefully this means a new Loomis solo album soon.
Hope he does another conquering dystopia album/tour
Sempre achei um desperdício um guitarrista como o Jeef no Arch enemy!!!!!! Nada contra a banda, aliás amo esta banda, porém Loomis era guitarra demais pra está banda!!!!!! Sucesso!!!!! Acompanharei os dois como sempre!!!!!
Jeff please work again with Chris Broderick and create a new band. Please :)
Hopefully Jeff will join/form a good band this time.
Yes, finally!!! after playing tertiary stuff for a quaternary? quinary? (no idea, they were never on my map) band. Good decision, congratulations. They should really get a guitarist who plays within their own league - and not a friend who can't say no.
joey is pretty good, he's filled in for loomis before.
Arch Enemy is a good band, but I'm surprised Jeff stayed as long as he did because I felt he was held back.
Michael never allowed Jeff to shine....most likely because he was a much better musician. He will do something awesome.
Thank god! Jeff is like 100000000x more than that shitty band deserves lol
Shitty band? you are delusional...
Dave Mustaine: hmmmm 🤔
i think there is more to this than meets the eye . these sweet statements from arch enemy and jeff . dont sit well with me . there is some thing else there. something bad has gone on with the band internally . and they dont want to spill the dirt . but this is just me
I mean how can they really be close friends after that they’re both probably gonna be busy someone said they had a world class race horse in a goddamn petting zoo
Arch enemy's good band ,i think.
Before loomis ,christopher ,nick cordle ,come on man ,we all know michael ammot is founder this band and he's one of the best too.. but loomis,christopher ,nick ,they are different levels.
Good. I no longer need to follow Arch Enemy. Jeff Loomis made a wise decision and I know he will continue his brutal style of playing that he his well known for.
Its about time Jeff stopped being a cheese seller.
not a saga. not wwe. not fresh with Joey. fuking hell give it a rest man
Imagine wasting a legend like Loomis in your shitty band. Arch Enemy has always been mediocre at best. This is good news.
I'm not a huge fan of theirs but they are NOT A shitty band
Shitty band? you are delusional...
😂😂😂😂😂😢
Arch Enemy went downhill when Angela left. I've not been a fan since. Mainly because of that spoilt little brat they've got as a singer, which is probably why Jeff also left.
I posted this with another video, - before Loomis left - but here goes: This is likely an unpopular opinion, but I do not “prefer” the Alissa version of Arch Enemy. Sure, they were progressive and a tad out there as far as melodeath goes with Angela, but now it’s some weird hybrid of classic melodeath and whatever Alissa’s fronting is attempting to be. Image aside - again, what is it? A Disney character, superhero or supermodel looks? - Even her vocals, trying to be really refined, diverse, understood, but not the same music anymore with the cleans - that affects the music, making it more like Five Finger Death Punch or the likes; the way she moves on stage, the gesticulation, even her facial expressions, just trying really hard to convey some tough metal chick but a supermodel image at the same time, everything, it’s just too much, it just does not fit together well. In her interviews, she also has this air of holier than thou, I’m-a-real-artist-but-I-look-and-sing-better-than-you look and attitude. Not the Arch Enemy that I used to like. I respect the music, the guitar playing (Jeff Loomis, I totally understand you, but would be nice to see you move on and make some heavy, melodic stuff that is free of those weird metalcore’ish escapades!!!), and I also understand the appeal of this new band, - many love it, nothing wrong with it!! - just not for me anymore. I will listen to the Angela era.
Angela is still controlling things in the backstage. Alissa is just an employee like Jeff was. This band is like a company owned by Michael and last time i heard it he and Angela like married or something.
@@MoCarcass well said!!!
@cortarelva they dated once but I don't believe Angela is married to him.
Johan Liiva albums rulez!
Oh, he was in that ArchEnemy band? How long? Loomis seems like one of those guys that has great technical ability, but will never become greatness in a great band.
Have to assume you never heard Nevermore. 1991-2015. Singer died in 2017, otherwise Im sure they’d be touring and releasing albums. Loomis wrote and recorded both guitar parts on like every second album.
@@geepike Heard em
@@geepike They had their moments, some great guitar work and sometimes writing, some of their stuff was beyond, but they were very niche... That was pretty much aimed at a narrow group. I mean, do what ya do, but the writing wasnt gonna appeal to but a few.
@@dramius Always Taylor Swift and same 3 Guns N Roses songs over and over again for the masses I guess lol
@@geepike lol, I guess so
Mad Respect to Jeff.
Now get Chris Amott back dammit !!!
😂😂😂😂😂😢
idk why they didn’t utilize him no wonder why he left
