The ESP Guitar Company

With an all-ESP lineup, it's no wonder Misery Index sounds so brutal! This Baltimore-based death metal/grindcore band includes guitarist/frontman Mark Kloeppel, lead guitarist Darin Morris, and bass player Jason Netherton. If "Naysayer" sounds familiar to you, it's because we recently featured Mark doing a playthrough of it on an LTD EX-401. Mark plays his ESP EX in the video, and Darin is pulverizing his ESP V-II, while Jason is using one of the new ESP E-II BTL Series basses. Get Misery Index's killer new album Rituals of Power here.
