It's the greatest solo of all time.
>>686080311
Damn I'm retarded for not putting Marty there
Uli jon Roth Scorpions/solo
in trance
the sails of sharon
sky overture
>>686080640
It's understandable.
Marty is my all time favorite but Dave is a fucking god. The songs. The riffs. The solos.

Best solo: Good Mourning/Black Friday
Jesper Stromblad
In Flames
Dimension Zero
The Resistance
In Flames albums The Jester Race, Whoracle, Colony, Clayman,
Dimension Zero album silent night fever
Honestly far too many bad ass locks and solos to break down
Favorite songs are silent night fever by d zero
The jester race, the jester dance, moonshield, jotun, episode 666, you know what fuck it all of those albums.
All fucking killer zero fucking filler
>>686079224
>Acle Kahney
>TesseracT - Altered State
>Palingenesis (Altered State) is my favorite, but this guy writes all the music for tesseract so, fucking everything i suppose.

If you like metal, you'd definitely enjoy their work. Look up TesseracT.

WHAT???!!!
>2016
>giving a shit about giutarists
>>686082737
Those two are my favorite bands of all time. Literally started playing extended range guitar because of Tosin Abasi and Acle Kahney's work with their bands.
>mfw they toured together in my city and i never went to see them
>>686082527
Now don't take this an an attack anon but I've tried grooving to the new album but I just don't get it..... I turn it on and it like listening to tool.....
Now wicked prog metal you guys all need to look at
Textures
Specifically the polars album
>>686082884
>giving a shit about guitarists
Take your edges somewhere else, gaylord. And take your bass with you
>>686082992
>>686082737
also, dude, tosin created a slap techniche. that's fucking awesome
>>686079224
1. Muhammed Suiçmez, Necrophagist
2. Epitaph (better riffs)/Onset of Putrification (better solos)
3. Epitaph

4. Advanced Corpse Tumor: Solo it'self is called Hymn of an Angel.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6-Q3isUrIU
>>686083152
I love textures. That being said, I think dualism is much much better. Plus, better singer.
>>686083152
>Textures
absolute trash
>>686083374
I like that pissed off belted out scream of the first dude. It's so fucking raw, just yells till his voice breaks.
>>686083216
Niiiice. But serjously man
>necrophagist
>not picking the solo to "Diminished To /b/"
I shiggy diggy
Frederik Thordendal - Meshuggah
Best Album - Obzen
Best Riff - Dancers to a Discordant System
Best Solo - Do Not Look Down
>>686082532
>CAFO
The riff in that song annoys the fuck out of me though.
>>686083689
I fucking love that grind in Bleed
>>686083564
Right on! If youre interested, search Youtube for the band Shirazad, they are an unsigned band that might intrigue you
>>686083618
That's actually my second favorite. For some reason this solo just really always got to me.
>>686083544
ITT: /b/ goes Prog
>>686083869
Will hafta check it. I've been really trying to find more of the sound I really love.
Gothenburg melodeath but it's so few and far between
>>686083689
>Dancers to a Discordant System
Fucking yes. This band has way too many good riffs though.
>>686083844
Checked
Also, I'm more of a fan of their 'groovier' stuff, ala Catch-33 and Nothing. But Bleed is pretty kickass.

Have not examined any as of yet. Do you have a place to recommend my start at?
Adam Jones, Tool
Album: Lateralus
Riff: Flood
Solo: Stinkfist Live Version
http://youtube.com/watch?v=u32G15b2XPs
too many to mention, but start with the Shut Up 'n Play Yer Guitar series, or FZ:Guitar.
If you like shredding only, he's not your guy. If you like solos that stand on there own as compositions, then there has never been anyone better.
Josh Middleton - Sylosis
Best Album - Dormant Heart
Best Riff - Dormant Heart
Best Solo - Empyreal
The vocals take a while to get used to for most people, but the guitar is great
>>686084613
Jones is an adequate guitarist and a good songwriter. What he is capable of is definitely great for the songs he writes. But I just don't understand why everyone has to suck his cock?
>>686084860
Because the band is shrouded in pretentiousness, however they are still a great band
>>686084545
I think you would enjoy the stuff off masstaden, but id recommend checking out their ep Omnislash. It's a perfect place to start. Once you're done, check out (the demo version of) Deceit by vildhjarta.
>>686084545
How about FellSilent?
Immerse.
Please please listen to this if you haven't.
>>686084860
It's from my understanding that a lot of Tool fans think that the band is the second coming of Christ and they feel so entitled or better than people because they listen to Tool. Granted I'm a fan of them but I don't think that they're the best fucking musicians on the planet
>>686085169
They also have instrumental versions of quite a few songs that ended up on Maastaden. That's worth a look too.
Yui Hirasawa; HTT
Best riff/solo: Yan Yan
>>686084977
This^
>>686084977
It's that kind of perceived value thing me thinks. Like if you took all of their records and release them 2 years apart then meh, but since the masses can't ever get a new fix it's worth something now.......
I do give cred for aenima and undertow but since then........
>>686085351
Yep! I've listened to pretty much every vildhjarta song there is haha they were my favorite for a long time
>>686085304
Fucking exactly!!!! It's just outside of radio rock so the normies can feel special and exclusive
>>686085503
I enjoy all their albums but I think 10,000 days was a step down from the rest
>>686084977
I don't think its the fans fault for acting like they do. Not to sound elitist, but usually, tool fans have never heard anything close to jazz or prog so they end up so in love with tool when they listen. Tool is a good band to listen to when you're 12
>>686085169
>>686085279
This I will do anons. Thanks for sending me in another direction to look, much appreciated.
The worst part about music is there's so much and most is trash.
Like I kept hearing all the hype about ghost brigade...... was a but underwhelmed
>>686085831
When you're too pretentious for tool
>>686085530
Still waiting for a new FULL album, though. Thousands of Evils was good, BUT I NEED MOAR
>>686083199
victor wooten did
>>686086004
This is a joke right?
>>686084629
but what about steve vai then?
>>686085831
I can agree with you on the fact that a majority of people haven't listen to jazz or prog rock but I feel like a majority of them know them from the radio songs like Schism and The Pot and that's about it
>>686079224
op is dildos
>>686085986
Thall!
>>686083199
no he fucking didn't you goddamn moron.
does anyone here like jon gomm? acoustic stuff but fucking amazing
>>686086201
This thread....
>>686086290
>>686086045
Tosin's thumb slap is inspired by wooten and other bass players, he said so himself. But he's the inventor of the slap technique on extended range guitar. There's no need to argue
>>686086083
Yes, Sherlock.
>>686084613
I like tool as much as the next guy, but they are disappointing live
>>686079224
Name: Nuno Bettencourt (Extreme)

Not exactly a virtuoso, but amazingly consistent and a fantastic songwriter.
>>686086757
what the fuck? tool's actually one of the best bands live imo
they're so close to album quality it's insane
i mean i can understand your opinion if you wanted it to sound like more than what's the album, but if not, wtf man. the visual portions they do are fantastic
alex jones is a god
Steve Vai(Vai band)
album: Fire Garden
best riff: Building the Church( middle after solo)
best solo: Tender Surrender
>>686087099
>not picking bad horsie for best riff
>kek.jpg
>>686084006
Prog has some dank ass guitar work, anon.
>>686086757
They're all old now, they don't have the youthful energy like they did in the 90s and early 00s
>>686087180
like its great but the riff for building the church took so much for him to learn. also hes an amazing composer
>>686087205
all the best guitarists are from prog metal or complete solo acts
no coincidence here
>>686086856
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioBy875IEwM
Live solo clip. I can't even. It's mindblowing. Poor guitar.
>>686087083
they just stand around
>>686087316
yeah he is
i just like bad horsie for the absolute raw energy of it
it can fit in so many genres it's insane. just imagine rock genre where the slide riff in bad horsie doesn't fit in (post '80s, of course)
you just can't
>>686087485
In Tool's defense, the concerts have been more about the visuals than watching some dudes go apeshit on a stage
>>686087205
It's the nature of prog players to wanna be the best in guitar, so , much to our delight, they always have these crazy techniques and riffs in their music.
>>686087512
This. just so true on many levels. if you speed it up you or slow it down by even the slightest bpm you get a different genre
>>686087485
yeah they're not great at creating energy on stage but that's not what it's about, they always have those crazy-ass projector shows to accompany them and alex grey is absolutely insane when it comes to visual arts, and they often have custom pieces done for their live shows
i said alex jones for some reason last post and i kek'd a little tbh ignore my retardation
>>686080652
Anything off Tokyo Tapes would qualify.
>>686079224
Ron Jarzombe - Spastik Ink, Blotted Science, Watchtower.
Album: Blotted Science - The Machinations of Dementia
Best Riff: Brain Fingerprinting - Blotted Science
Best Solo: Blotted Science - Bleeding in the Brain
>>686085888
Only heard one ghost brigade song. Into the black light. It just reminded me of opeth lol which isn't necessarily a bad thing
>>686080020
>>686080020
Gotta go with Holy Wars as Dave's best solo. It pretty much single-handedly made me want to play guitar.
>>686086541
"Inspired". I've met Tosin in DC a few times and I remember the words out of his mouth being that he learned the technique from Victor Wootens nephew or something like that.
You can invent something that already exists... it being on an "extended range guitar" makes no fucking difference.
>>686084456
Literally about to say buckethead. I like balloon cement more though.
Zakk Wylde does still rain supreme though just because he's the most metal guitarist to ever live. Pic related.
>>686088365
can = can't
typo.
>>686088365
>>686088491
I've never met the man, so you got me there. He reinvented it then, damn son lol
>>686088064
Ron Jarzombek.
And yeah, best guitarist currently alive IMO.
>>686083216
Necrophagist for the fucking win.
Chuck Schuldiner, Death
Best album: The Sound of Perseverance
Best riff: Trapped in a Corner
Best solo: Voice of the Soul (good god the emotion, FUCK)
Chris Amott, Arch Enemy/Armageddon
Best album: Burning Bridges (AE)
Best riff: Dead Inside
Best solo: Dark of the Sun (@ 4:55ish)
>>686087180
ehhh... his "i listened to pantera for the first time before writing this song"-song.
pass
>>686087709
it can work for a metalcore style breakdown
it can work for a prelude to a blues solo
it stands on its own as a fucking solid classic rock rifff
slow it down, it treads into doom metal territory
speed it up, it's PERFECT for thrash metal (provided the small scaling interlude isn't sped up to the same pace)
i just can't get over how versatile it is honestly
>>686089521
see below comment
i completely disagree
>>686089544
>>686088372
>>686088372
Zakk Wylde is pretty terrible when it comes to solos though. He's like an advanced Kerry King.
Ironically Kerry's music was better in his prime so there's that.
Alexander Liss AKA HouseTheGrate
Best album: Houseworks
Best riff: N/A (VG covers)
Best solo: Waltz of the Dolls
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfOIfH8CuxA
>>686088372
yeah its hard picking a favorite since he has 1000 albums and 1000000 riffs.
i just realized no one has mentioned paul motherfucking gilbert
i'm not filling out OP's shitty ass survey but here's gilbert at his technical finest:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vS6syL0-jM
there's obviously examples where he composes amazing work, but this is just an example of his raw talent, such as:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn-wj4pRpIE
paul motherfuckin gilbert, faggots
>>686089908
Yeah, I'd say he's mediocre, that's why I just said because he's metal. He's always had my favorite steez, unlike fucking angus young kek.
>>686089959
Oh yeah no I'm pretty sure he has the most legitimate songs out of any artist ever and he's 47, and I doubt he's retiring soon.
>>686089866
it just sounds sooo forced. it's just not his jib to try and sound heavy with riffs, it just comes off as cheesy always.
not to take anything away from literally everything else he does amazingly.
>>686090365
buckethead, paul gilbert, steve vai, jeff loomis, joe satriani
top 5 guitarists of our time imo
prove me wrong /b/, i'll watch all videos
That is all.
>>686090412
i think he was going for the generic sound, in all honesty. the fact that's one of his few (generic songs) and the song can span so many genres is what i think is amazing. he pretty much wrote a template for a handful of rock genres in one song
Nobody has posted this mother fucker? Behold Yngwie Malmsteen
>greatest guitarist alive and possibly of all time
>>686090512
I proved you wrong.
See: >>686087461
>>686090512
> forgets yngwie malmsteen
>>686084456
His pike dedicated to his mother is one gigantic shred
>>686090783
yngwie is impressive, but i've never seen anything by him that actually 'wowed' me. lots of technical skill, no soul
same shit everyone else would say about yngwie though
>>686090728
impressive as fuck, i would have to look into him more before i'd change my mind
kudos to bringing someone to my attention that i've never heard of before
>>686089908
Come the fuck on with this... Kerry King?
Zakk Wylde at least knows what notes he's hitting. He nails all of his guitar solos live, always. Plays Piano and Guitar proficiently. Plays all of Randy Rhodes and Jake E Lee's material perfectly...
seriously though, I don't think you know what you're talking about.
>i'm not even a fan of the guy, vastly prefer Randy RIP and Jake E Lee.
>>686090512
>jeff loomis
Gah, Jeff is the fucking MAN.
His solo in The Heart Collector is actually literally perfect.
>>686090365
whoa, Bucket is 47?? Didn't realize he was that old. No wonder he has back problems.
>>686083216
came here for this one.
Band: Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force
Best Album: Odyssey
Best Riff: Rising Force
Best Solo: Crystal Ball
>>686091177
Miles of Machines makes me jizz a bit to be honest
>>686090512
I'd replace paul gilbert John Petrucci.
>>686091059
You'll find that a lot of people give him shit about his "Flight of the wounded bumble bee" playback trick. It's a nice solo, but he cheats a bit for effect. It's not technically very difficult.
Other than that, apparently he's just an egomaniac. Which no guitarist ever has ever been, obviously.
>>686091230
Kek yeah he was actually guitarist for guns n roses in 2000 I think. He's been rocking at least a few official songs s month for decades, the dude is a legend.

>>686091328
Oh fuck, I totally fell out of the scene and missed his solo stuff! This is so good...
>>686091059
Side note, their bass player can almost keep up with him. I forget his name though. Thus is the life of a bass player.
>>686091350
yeah, i understand that using scalloped frets makes shredding a lot easier in general once you get used to it
I have a mandolin with scalloped frets (acquired second hand, obv) and it's really easy to get a clean sound out of it compared to any of my acoustics
i just haven't heard any compositions by him that actually have that wow factor. most of it just sounds like generic rock riffs with a dickload of fast scaling thrown in
sorry if i explained this bad, english is not my first language
>>686091059
Also, his song "Play With Me" is from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Where Beethoven annihilates the keyboard in the mall.
"More Than Words" was their huge hit and it had virtually zero impressive guitar in it.
>>686082884
oh right i forgot, dubstep pop and nig beats are the only kinds of music that exist.
>>686091598
Damn straight, son! And of course, there's Obscura, fucking Astronecrophagist, and Incarnated off of Cosmogenesis is the best kind of Death worship.

Sup
>>686091329
i'm OP of the comment obv
but i feel like loomis and pettrucci would be more interchangeable than gilbert, but i'm also biased because i was a metalhead before dream theatre rose in popularity
now that you mention it, i don't think i'd even be comfortable with a top 5. would probably have to expand it to top 10 because petrucci deserves a spot up there but i have no room for him lol
>>686091745
i thought this comment was in reply to me criticizing yngwie malmsteen, so you can ignore 99% of what i said actually
the dude you showed me is totally different and i have no idea about his back story, so i totally need to listen to him more

>>686091949
I'm gonna back Alexi because CoB was incredible for the first 3 albums. Best solo is a toss-up between Towards Dead End and Kissing the Shadows, personally.
>>686092253

>>686091949

>>686083216
FINALLY A GOOD GUITARIST!
*takes head out of noose*
>>686092306
duuude kissing the shadows is my fav CoB solo, the duel between the synth and guitar is fucking amazing
really highlights the whole premise of the song in the solo by doing it too. i think kissing the shadows is CoB's best song, honestly
>>686087205
True story
Better than that blackened album *shudder*
>>686092442
Very well could be, it's non-stop and everything in it is suuuuper spot on. Plus, that ending, goddamn.
>>686092695
I wish more people appreciated that song
CoB is a pretty popular band where I'm from but a lot of people haven't heard that song

I hear ya. Hard to give up spots.
Also, what do you think about Cacophony?
Jason Becker + Marty Friedman!
Hard to pick between Racer X and Cacophony for me. Speed Metal Symphony is soo legit, but then you have Loud and Clear.
>>686093001
Yeah, kinda surprised at no mention of Becker yet.

apparently none of you faggots have heard of Doug Martsch from Built to Spill, The Halo Benders, and Treepeople.
best album would be Perfect From Now On.
not picking best riff or solo, i wouldnt even be able to pick best song. there are too many contenders.
>>686092816
to be honest, first guitar I owned I modded to add a kill-switch in because of buckethead
it's really easy too, you just take a momentary switch and slap it in there pretty much LOL
i still own it to this day. Ibanez ART300 with EMG 85 and 66
it had such a warm sound, was SO good for playing rhythm with!
when i was in my shitty band we did a lot of dual solos and that's why i have the odd choice in pups lol

>>686093001
don't even mention Becker.. :( so sad
I honestly can't pick between the two. Racer X is my personal fav because of gilbert, but cacophony is right up there too..
I wonder how good becker would be these days..
no one has mentioned J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr.? you ignorant fucks.
best album: You're Living All Over Me
best riff: too many, cant pick one.
best solo: tough pick, but the solo on the song Kracked, starting a little after a minute.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUhsN4TPVzo
inb4 faggots expect a ton of shredding and think thats what makes a good guitarist. this jew can shred, but he doesnt always need to.
>>686093742
You know Becker and Gilbert would've done an album together by now. Yes, very sad. He gave his all though and is still amazingly enough creating music.

guitar music? huh, music is music, notes are the same, chords too.. Explain "guitar music" for me because I am confused.
>>686091084
I've been playing guitar for nearly 10 years. Zakk's solos are on the level of Kings. Have you seen the guy live?
His 30 minute guitar solos are terrible.

Yeah, I've only been playing guitar for twenty years or so now. No clue about guitar.
I checked out Built to Spill and Treepeople. Sounds like ass.
>>686094509
sorry, let me rephrase: you know nothing about music.
John Motherfucking Dowland
Albums didn't exist
"Come Again" chorus
Now o Now I needs must part.
Still have doubts? The poet Richard Barnfield wrote that Dowland's "heavenly touch upon the lute doth ravish human sense." RAVISH HUMAN SENSE - which one of your screechy voiced axe hacks can do that shit?
>>686094287
Guns' n Roses with Buckethead or with Bumblefoot? Both of them are better than the shit you just listed by a country mile.
>>686094737
And look at that badass haircut & beard. Dowland Forever.
>>686094583
>Yeah, I've only been playing guitar for twenty years or so now.
doesnt mean you know shit. youre probably one of those dipshits who idolizes the guitarists rolling stone tells you to. you have no appreciation for interesting textures and atmospherics. fuck off back to rolling stone with you.

>axe hacks
>>686094737
dowland would play electric if it was invented in his time, because it's a medium that would attract a larger audience
prove me wrong
>>686094795
Guns and Roses are cock rock and youre musically retarded if you like them.
Kerry King FTW
>>686094819
> interesting textures and atmospherics
like tom morello? KEK
>>686094870
Probably - but he would have RAVISHED HUMAN SENSE with it.

Alexi has great lead work but after listening to the last album I think it's roope latvala we were all getting hard dicks over.

you forgot to add venom in there somewhere, then it'd be 10/10
>>686094951
yeah, because Built to Spill sounds anything like shitty Rage Against the Faggot

There all twats just Lars has a more pungent aroma

Gotta be trolling OP, James Hetfield is not only not the greatest guitarist in the world, but he isn't even the best guitarist in his band.
>>686079224
James hetfield is in no way, no single fucking way, a god-tier guitarist. Come the fuck on, jesus.
Jan akkerman (was the worlds best guitarist)
Guitarist for focus
Some sick soloing on the song hocus pocus
>>686095019
>So I'm guessing you believe your "guitar music" is the best kind of music.
lol where did i imply that guitar music is the best?

Either you've never heard much Uli or you don't know fucking shit about guitar playing.

>>686095074
Well, Roope is awesome and he slays on Sinergy (as does Alexi for that matter), but he's not on the first 3 CoB albums
>>686094528
You might think it's terrible, maybe you don't like his taste in notes, but the fucker can play the instrument. he isn't like Kerry King, accidentally playing random chromatic shit because he doesn't know how to play a proper scale like and then throwing nothing but his whammy bar divebombs constantly instead of playing actual notes.
Jeff (RIP) carried Slayer hard as fuck.
>>686094509
music that uses a guitar as its primary instrument of melody and/or rhythm, usually accompanied by drums and bass. there you go, you pedantic faggot.

im not much of a fan of the band as it was without Lou and Murph. the first 3 albums are classics, and Beyond and Farm are good. the rest ive heard but dont come back to.
>>686095449
You know I get the whole vibe of black metal, I do, and I appreciate it's angle. But, I fucking wish they would just make a good fucking recording, the shit they're ripping is bad ass, it just sounds like a fucking transistor thru a fucking pillow.
And once again, I know it's supposed to sound that way, I just wish it didn't.
Fuck, this thread got me listening to Nevermore again and goddamn I remember why I love every moment of this album.
Thank you, dudes.

Plus he did that Creedence thing this one time.

Fuck yeah it was! I'm back on a total Nevermore kick again, this is awesome.
Reminds me when I finally got to see them and they played fucking Engines of Hate! Met Jeff after the show and told him that was an awesome idea. All he said was "No, no it wasn't," and we laughed.
>>686096370
True that. Look at all the damage cliff did. Fucken prick

He also taught Randy Rhoades how to fly a helicopter.
The cunt was a menace.
>>686096831
I'm surprised he'd even have fingers left after playing that song live
Nevermore is definitely my fav as far as power metal goes
>>686096370
>>686097100
I was just so fucking happy to hear it. That was the tour with Bodom, Nevermore, and Dimmu, pretty fuckin' solid all around.
>>686097077
fucking savages, holy shit.
my SIDES!!!!
>>686097263
It's funny how they all fall into different sub-genres, but the fans span across those for the most part
I'd assume a lot of the Bodom fans didn't enjoy Nevermore to be honest
>>686096996
well, when it's shitty "inventive indie rock with interesting textures and shitty guitar work".
yeah. sub-cock rock.
>>686096370
>>686096837
>>686097077
You fucking monsters
>>686097437
They can't really be pinned down, no. They're definitely one of the most unique and distinctive metal bands.
Yeah, sadly they got the shaft that whole show since it was full of... well, Dimmu Borgir fans, and it was right when the Hot Topic crowd got a hold of them in the wake of Cradle of Filth. Pretty cringeworthy crowd that had no idea what they were witnessing with Nevermore crushing it on stage. But I rocked out, got to chill with Nevermore for a bit (they were super chill, happy to sign crap for a starstruck teenager and talk shop) and a Bodom drumstick. Good shit.
>>686097469
except its not cock rock at all.

being a quebecois has its benefits sometimes I guess

well.. not 10 years but almost at this point lol
i overestimated
>>686098180
...sub means below. as in shittier than cock rock.
any other words you want me to work out for ya, please post 'em.

im talking about Built to Spill you dumb faggot, follow the conversation before you make an ass of yourself.
>>686098685
Cuck.
Why everyone call me that??
>>686098685
lol look at this faggot, we've got an english major over here. did you graduate? "subcockrock" would still be a form of cock rock. and it isnt. learn how words work.
>>686098812
Okay dipshit, you mentioned cock rock, and I mentioned a rockers cock.
Don't get angry at me for liking a garbage band like built to spill.
Not my fault you have no fucking taste.
>The band Garbage is better than anything your into, fucking spastic
>>686091329
i agree
>>686098320
We get good shows all the time, but I had to pass up both At the Gates and Carcass right near each other because I lost my job. It was muh metuhl or muh rent... I hate being an adult sometimes.

>>686099594
>>686099825
I'm an old metal guy and while I would not classify Richards and Wood (or Jones, etc) as god tier, people do tend to under rate them. They look like they are barely playing and you can't tell who is doing what most the time. It's all very much on purpose and harder than it looks/sounds.
>>686100533
>Guitarist thread
Page is still a fuckin great guitarist who gives a shit if zeppelin was overrrated
>>686100777
Cool trips bro.
Doesn't change the fact that Page was the most overrated of the lot.
>>686100632
Super jealous man, I've been dying to see Carcass for so long and the timing was fucked. Especially since Surgical Steel was so good. And to top it off I could have seen Testament a third time and walked out on Slayer again. (Nothing against Slayer, really, I've just seen them enough times that it's nothing new/special anymore)
>>686100720
Oh yeah man, no doubt they aren't as technically proficent as others mentioned here, but just some of the riffs man. Basic as they are, nobody got to them first.
>>686100863
Sure, keep telling yourself that.
