I don't know, but from seeing all of his rehearsal videos on his myspace it doesn't bother me much that smyth wont be in the picture.

Hell, anything is better then nothing. The past few shows when they didn't have a rhythm guitarist were really lacking imo.

I haven't seen them at all, but yeah the band defiantly need two guitarists, i just can't see it working with only one

 

[Joel]

I was hoping for Ron Jarzombek

 

[SamSam]

Two is probably better, but I still think they sound great with one. Everything is soooo clear.

OK i stand corrected that wasn't nearly as bad as i thought it could have been, but yeah I still think 2 will be better, good luck to the new guy too heh

 

[B36arin]

YES! Finally! They HAVE to tour Europe after the album is out!!

I thought it sounded hollow as fuck lol.

I thought it sounded hollow as fuck lol.

oh it did but i have heard MUCH worse lol, I've even seen when one guitar bands have a solo for some reason the whole song seems to drop in volume and the song just falls on its face

ill put it down to a good sound guy haha

I was hoping for Ron Jarzombek

No offense but I wouldn't want to see Ron stifled by being stuck in Nevermore. His solo stuff is slow going and hard work, but he is so much better than that.

Yeah you make a good point, I love everything Ron has been involved in. But at the same time, i'd love to see him play with Loomis.

 

[JerkyChid]

Zoltan's brother?

 

[Netherhound]

I was hoping for Ron Jarzombek

Or James Murphy


but I am happy they got a new guitarist. And the fact he is pretty unknown and only 24 is pretty cool also


However I would love to see Gus Drax( from Biomechanical and his solo stuff) to join up. IMO he has the chops and the playing style that would fit nevermore.

check him out for those who don't know him

 

[Daggorath]

I was also hoping for Ron Jarzombek. I'm sure the guys a competent player but he seems quite similar to Loomis from the videos, where another original player to bounce ideas off may have done them better. Saying this, Jeff Loomis has more talent in his little finger than most bands pair of guitarists do.

 

[Bobo]

Well I still think I'll miss what Smyth added to TGE, but two guitarists live seems like a must for Nevermore (even though I may never see them live :-/ ).

Jeff said he switched from 10-52 + 70 to 9-46 + 64 because of hand pain....I feel ya bro

 

[Fred]

Fuck me. Good guitarist, but his custom Schecter (in his MySpace photos) is probably the ugliest custom I've ever seen. Does just about everything wrong - tramp stamp-style symbol on the front, fucking website on the lower side, more tramp stamps and a bizarrely fake-looking finish on the back, and a ridiculous slogan in fuck-off block letters on the back of the neck.

That aside, the videos of him playing along to Nevermore tunes make me fairly unsurprised they chose him - that TGE video in particular is badass, and reminds me quite how damn much I love that riff that kicks in around 5m56s in.

 

[RenegadeDave]

This guy certainly has the Loomis vibe to him.
