[A] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ All right, what [C] we have here is _ [B] my signature model ESP guitar, _ _ _ the BS-7.
And we have Alder Body, neck through maple _ _ construction, and _ DiMarzio CrunchLab bridge
pickup, DiMarzio [Gb] Liquifier neck pickup.
_ And what I like about these, I mean, the CrunchLab, _ it's pretty much the name.
It's crunchy, it's just fist-pounding good. _
_ You could hear full-chord voicings, [Gm] _
you _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Gm] _
could hear all the little nuances and changes in it. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [E] It also keeps the low end tight [Gb] and precise, which I love.
Here I'll play just to give you a taste of the crunchiness of this [D] pickup.

_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] I could just play that all day.
[N] I feel like the bridge pickup handles the crunch and the rhythm really well, while the
neck pickup handles the leads in a [Bb] nice, smooth, just, _ it's a very creamy [Gb] sound.
And it really shines in between our guitarist, Alex, and Zach, out of the center of the [Eb] mix.
And I'll give you an example. _ _ _

Yeah, I love writing just little moments, little cool riffs that, you know, I guess
they could be [N] choruses, so, like this one. _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[N] _ _ Another song that I'm really proud of on the new record is the opening track, Our Endless War.
It's also the title of the album.
The reason I like this song is because everybody had a part in it, everybody had a say.
I feel like this record is the record that [Gb] we've always wanted to make, but just haven't
been able to.
We just haven't [Bb] found that special _ connection that _ [Eb] we've been looking for.
And I [Gb] guess it took us four [F] records previous to find it. _
