Yep. There's a ton of drummers that kick Vinnie P's butt too.

Michael Romeo is perma-bulking.

True, Shawn Lane was a big guy.

I read somewhere that he was actually an influence for Romeo.

YngiweRhoads · « **Reply #30 on:** March 05, 2010, 08:39:15 AM »

Yeah Shawn Lane was the 'Guitar Hero's Guitar Hero'.

Meds made him a lard ass, apparently. Too bad he's worm food.

You are a fucking moron. Pantera is legendary. Some of the cleanest, fastest, and most difficult guitar and drum riffs ever. Any professional guitar player will tell you that Dimebag was one of the best guitarist of the 21st century. Pantera defined Metal. Bands like Lamb of God, and Black Label Society, come close to their skill but Pantera set the standard.

hell yeah...Cowboys from Hell is one of the greatest metal albums ever!

Dimebag one of the best guitarists of the 21st century? He was good, but that is a bit exagerated.

This guy is 10 times better than Dimebag and he is not the only one:

Fucking x 1000000 one of my biggest inspirations and heroes, met him twice in Toronto, the guy is insane... really friendly as well, both times stayed an hour behind after their set to chill and talk with us guitarheads.

Musically, it is 20 years ago in Eastern Europe.

As an aside, you guys will like this vid. It's from Tool's 1st concert on their Aenima tour circa 1996.

What makes this vid great, besides the song, is that it was shot by a fan who knew where to point the camera.

Had this been professionally shot, the a-hole Director would've been switching shots every two seconds, rendering the vid unwatchable.

From Meshuggah's new live disc "Alive" - this is New Millenium Cyanide Christ (the 2nd song in the vid is "Stengah) live in Montreal. The guitar riff locked in with the drums is an unstoppable force.......

These guys are using 8-string Ibanez guitars which sound unlike anything else I have heard in metal. Check out the intro to Stengah to get a good idea of just how "deep" a guitar can play.

Having long hair and being able to do a lot of superfast sweep picking to a cheesy drumtrack, may make you a virtuoso, but it does not make you legendary. There is something to be said for having a personality and being part of a great band. Dimebag was and is the king, everyone who knew him loved him and said he was a great guy. Also he was just cool, he played with ease, rythme, and character. All these speed metal virtuoso may be talented but they all sound the same, they are stiff, and cencentrating so hard it looks like they are constepated. These guys are nerds, they are all into sci-fi, ant internet porn. Dimebag was into smokin weed, partying, banging chicks, and having a badass pink beard. RIP Dime the undisputed king of Metal!!!!

^ thats a very good post. There is hell of a difference between a technically excellent "studio musician" / youtube sensation and a guy who plays in a band and is therefore 100x cooler.

The problem with your solo guitarist virtuoso type of guys is that, although they can shred, they have no true songwriting substance like their "less technical", successful brethren.

Also, bands like Metallica, Slayer, Anthrax, Pantera, and even modern spin offs like Rammstein, constitute thrash metal.
GNR, Alice in Chains, Dream Theater, Zeppelin, solo guys, are different genres.

Don't worry... please keep it the Portuguese visa, since Brazilians don't need visa to go to Europe.

Also I do have 2 passports. Dual Citizenship.

I've been to Europe so many times.

Except for one thing. In modern metal virtually everyone shreds like a virtuoso. It's expected that a metal guitar player will shred like a guy. That's basically dismissing the entire modern metal scene.

Look at Megadeth now with Chris Broderick. Nevermore with Jeff Loomis (who just came out with an instrumental shred cd). COB with Alexi etc etc etc. They shred and write awesome tunes, so your analogy is flawed. Less technical just means too lazy to learn how to play your instrument properly. It's rather akin to arrested development.
