Hahah, uber shredding

[distressed_romeo]

That's an awesome song from the Roadrunner United CD, BTW, Toshiro. 'Annihilation By the Hands of God.

I deem this 'true'!

 

[The Dark Wolf]

James is the god of guitar for me.

I actually bought the CD only for that song and this clip on the DVD.

Plus it has Deicide vocalist Glen Benton on that song.

I really like the King Diamond song 'In the Fire', too. Hell, I like a bunch of the songs on that album. 'The Dagger', with Robert Flynn and dude from Chimaira, probably my favorite - 'The Enemy', with Dino and Howard Jones (KsE), the Corely Taylor tune 'Rich Man', Mikael Akerfeldt on 'Roads', shit, I even like the Dani Filth tune, lol. *GOLLUM*

James does the intro solo on 'Constitution Down', too.

 

[Naren]

James Murphy is awesome. I like his Testament stuff best.

 

[Roland777]

Great soloing right there!

dude, you got your songs mixed up.

The Dagger has Rob Flynn and Howard Jones.
The Enemy has Dino and the singer from Chimaira.

Sorry, but I have a *thing* about this band. They play half-assed power/hair metal and wear eyeliner, and somehow they have "street cred" just because their singer used to bark a bit?

Q: What do you get when you kick the female singer out of Poison?
A: A7X

I didn't get the songs mixed up... just the singers!

I do shit like that all the time, unfortunately, though. I'm abmidextrous, but I have a very dim conception of left/right, and things like that. As a kid, I had to feel both hands before the Pledge of Allegiance, because I knew my left middle finger had a scar I could feel, my right didn't. Hence, I knew which hand to hold over my heart. I can never remember which way to turn a screwdriver, someone tells me turn right, I go left, shit like that.

But I did know that. I've only listened to the songs over and over, and I have the album.

Thanks for pointing out that I'm a dumbass, though. I appreciate it. What a pal!

+1000

And his covers are bad-ass too. His cover of Al DiMeola's "Race With the Devil on Spanish Highway" totally rips. It's a pity he got sick and doesn't play anymore

 

[Oogadee Boogadee]

The King's song on the Roadrunner United disc is by bar the best song on there for me. Matt Beefy worked his balls off to write a killer song for King Diamond and he succeeded. If Trivium got a real singer, i'd might consider giving them a shot. The DVD is cool too. Mike Smith is badass. And so is Jeff Waters.

Anyway, that avenged sevenfold clip sucked. i'm sure he could play better than that. Shame on him for not caring, b/c it showed.

Poor playing + no taste = eye liner

 

[fathead]

Check this out, try Re Menor - Philarmonic, Fenix, and Wolverine.

hahahaha

 

[Mark. A]

Severe lack of phrasing and it was pentatonic rubbish mosr of the time

 

[Adam]

Now, the Malmsteem "Baroque and Roll" vid right under it... Now that's badass, and I don't even particularly like Yngwie. Lightning-fast, perfect pick articulation, and it's all done with a tone that's only lightly overdriven. Say what you want about the dude, but that guy can play.

 

[Drew]

Holy mother of resurrected threads.

I should probably take this otherwise useless excuse to point out that, in general, I'm NOT a Malmsteem fan. It's just, the guy's tecnical mastery is undeniable, and that's cool.

 

[bostjan]

Yngwie is great at doing his pidgeonholed style, no one can argue that. Think of all the great players he influenced- John Pettrucci, Michael Romeo, Ron Jarzombek…

Anyway, I love certain Yngwie moments, but I think he's stopped growing musically, so I would be floored if he came out with something fresh and new, where as I pretty much expect the three guys I listed above to do something fresh and new every time.

As I've said before, Yngwie's figured out his meal ticket. Apparently, when he plays for "himself", it's in the blues-Hendrix motif.

I never saw this thread... or at least I don't remember it. I must say, even though that "shredding" wasn't very clean, at least we can all agree that he's a fuck of a lot better than all of the popular music guitarists today. Introducing some shred like that to kids is a start.=)

 

[bibz]

Introducing that as shred completely undignifies the instrument and its masters of all ages.

Maybe a lil extreme but that fuckin sucked balls. Atleast with laiho I cant go 'spend the time it takes for you in makeup on the guitar and you'll be half decent' I can however say 'trade your eyeliner and nailpolish time for shred prac, and maybe you can be in the same timezone as loomis'

your are absolutely right. Those kiddies should go back to listening to Tom Delonge and Simple Plan.
