Yeah he's sick! Good songs, and sick shredding, and it's awesome to have a local dude recognized for their metal aptitude!

Living Colour is still a band?



toggletoggle post by Yeti at Jun 7,2011 3:19pm
Dave is awesome, but that is a bit ridiculous to put him as #1 on that list. Jeff Loomis? Karl Sanders? Fredrik Thorendal? i mean come on. it is really cool that he made the list, but he should not be in that spot. i'm not even bad-mouthing him either.



toggletoggle post by Yeti at Jun 7,2011 3:19pm
most of these guys have been writing amazing material for several decades. "best up-and-comer" list would have been more appropriate.



toggletoggle post by Sacreligion at Jun 7,2011 3:53pm
How are Living Colour and AIC modern metal?



toggletoggle post by FuckIsMySignature at Jun 7,2011 3:56pm
i guess cause they are still alive and able to play their instruments

surprised Blue Cheer didn't make it on this

@Yeti: yeah, this is like the top modern composer list starting with:
1) John Williams
2) Beethoven

thats cool and all... BUT WHERE IS CHRIS BRODERICK? it has the faggot from avenged sevenfold and not the dude that makes marty friedmans solos sound even better... so dumb, haha.

Next stop, Guitar World...

i'm honestly blown away that he's getting this kind of recognition... i personally, can easily see why he'd be picked for #1, because his guitar playing is literally top tier. So yeah, he hasn't been a part of some of the records that some of those lower on the list have, but the list was NOT supposed to be "The guitarists that have written the best music" it's just about their playing in particular.... i personally like Fredrik Thordendal the best outta that list, but i totally can see why DD got put on top.

That being said, it fucking rules that Revo's getting this kind of publicity. It's inspiring to see what a LOT of hard work can get you.

Some talent on this list, but the order and some of the inclusions and exclusions make it look very monkey on a typewriter generated. Fail.



toggletoggle post by saxlbeckett at Jun 8,2011 2:37pm
Or how about just Marty Friedman? His solos sound good enough already.



toggletoggle post by ShadowSD  at Jun 8,2011 2:41pm
Jerry Cantrell I've always liked a lot and Adam Jones does what he does well enough, but I'd never rate either in the top 50 of modern metal guitar players, it's kind of comical the talent that requires the ignoring of across the spectrum. And I wonder what epiphany came to the list making guy when he was taking a shit trying to decide who could possibly separate those two shred gods on the list or whether they were officially tied - and then he thought, I know, Buckethead!!! Cantrell... Buckethead... Jones... why didn't I see it before, if there's anyone who splits the difference between Cantrell and Jones, it's Buckethead! What the hell kind of formula did he use to get this erratic nonsensical hierarchy?

Apparently, he's no Adam Jones.



toggletoggle post by ShadowSD  at Jun 8,2011 2:46pm
Maybe if Marty Friedman is lucky, Adam Jones will start giving him lessons to sharpen his playing.

(SM = 5000)



toggletoggle post by blue  at Jun 8,2011 7:24pm
I'm guessing no one is paying attention to the main criteria of releasing material in the past 5 years. Friedman doesn't make the list automatically.


Oh..and where the fuck is Dan Mongrain (Martyr/Gorguts/Voivod) in that list?

Do a needlessly long whining post followed by sycophantic ass-kissing about it.
