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

"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'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.

Side note, their bass player can almost keep up with him. I forget his name though. Thus is the life of a bass player.

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

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.

oh right i forgot, dubstep pop and nig beats are the only kinds of music that exist.

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

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

Jordan is the most simple, original, and catchy riff I've ever heard, but Soothsayer has this aura about it

>>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.

>>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

Very well could be, it's non-stop and everything in it is suuuuper spot on. Plus, that ending, goddamn.

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 own a Buckethead signature les paul, best thing I've ever bought, Jordan was the hardest song on Guitar Hero II..

>>686091950

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

That might've been the worst shit I've listened to in years. Fuck you guy, either you suck at joking or you have really shitty tastes in life and music.
>>
>>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.

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.
>>
>>686093619
lol you know nothing about guitar 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.
>>
>>686094056

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.

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.

And look at that badass haircut & beard. Dowland Forever.
