Heavyocity Media has announced the release of a new Kontakt Player-powered virtual instrument library that takes a fearless new approach to melodic electric guitars with high-octane leads, gritty riffs, shredding licks, and refined melodic elements.
Designed to inject your scoring arsenal with session-ready power and pristine tone, Damage Guitars 2 was built to electrify your creativity and unleash devastating guitar-driven cues that channel your inner metal god.
Damage Guitars 2 brings Neil Goldberg’s dynamic riffs, soaring melodies, and soulful bends straight into your studio. Drawing from his extensive experience as a former touring metal guitarist, Neil’s world-class playing style has been authentically captured to empower you to craft legendary leads and riffs with unmatched intensity and expression. This collection was built using a carefully selected lineup of his finest electric guitars, including the Suhr Modern, Andy Wood Signature Modern T, Jackson PC1, and the iconic Gibson ES-335. Paired with premium tube amplifiers and a range of dynamic pedals, these guitars were recorded with raw intensity to deliver exceptional tone, grit, and power.
After the pristine recordings, the Heavyocity team pushed the boundaries further, processing each track through their signature signal chain to ensure every riff and lead hits with unparalleled clarity and force. To complete the package, bass lines were expertly recorded to match each guitar riff, providing a seamless balance of drive and impact.
With over 1,500 dynamic sources, Damage Guitars 2 delivers an extensive arsenal of melodic elements, subtle inflections, and driving textures—offering everything you need to shape your own signature sound. Designed for maximum flexibility, the instrument is organized into three distinct playing styles—Metal, Damaged, and Hard Rock—each carefully crafted in three keys (A, D, and F#). This versatile collection is built to inspire musicians and composers, making it easy to craft a wide range of compositions with precision and ease.
In addition, Heavyocity has introduced Damage Rock Grooves 2, a collection of over 860 energetic, hard-hitting drum loops.
This collection is designed to complement the heavy guitar riffs and driving bass lines, providing the perfect foundation for your next fierce cue. Organized into three distinct categories—Damaged, Metal, and Hard Rock Grooves—these loops offer a wide range of percussive textures and styles.
Additionally, a curated set of Damage Guitars 2 Grooves snapshots mirrors the riff bank names in Damage Guitars 2, making it effortless to pair grooves with their corresponding riffs. Flexible and production-ready, these loops can be combined, stacked, and customized to bring your creative vision to life.
Damage Guitars 2 is available to purchase at Plugin Boutique and from the Heavyocity store for an introductory price of $219 USD (regular $299 USD). Damage Rock Grooves 2 is available for $39 USD during the intro promotion (regular $49 USD), and it comes free with the purchase of Damage Guitars 2 until March 7th, 2025.
