dbreslauer Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Chet Atkins' "Stars and Stripes Forever." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cyiq6lewgOk This guy was incredible. Compare this performance to a marching band's to fully appreciate all he incorporated. The piccolo lines in particular are very cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shnate McDuanus Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 My favorite guitar solo of all time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ujga-3p21xY 3:10 Also, a great Obituary solo, at 2:30. It's not the best, but I think it's perfect in the song, and if I learned how to play that lick he starts the solo with, I'd feel awesome about it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAS44 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Basically anything by Paul Gilbert http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x92csOySpRs You'll know the one I'm talking about! Precisely at the 4 minute mark, it's incredible. Also, Steve I think this sounds like an homage to Gary Moore so you might enjoy it! Seeing it live blew me away. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3l5i2kL3pI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fm-plZCkMos&feature=fvsr Awesome song. I need to learn how to play that lick at the beginning. I think that one's pretty much essential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please don't take this wrong I really can not understand a dam word...if it wasn't from the screaming I would like Metal....reminds me of my ex wife... The screaming/growling works well in the style for two reasons: 1) The more abrasive vocal textures fits in more interestingly and often more appropriately with the distorted tones of the instruments 2) The more abrasive vocal textures more accurately convey the content of the music To be honest, even when I listen to music that doesn't have growls, I can't always understand what the vocalists are talking about. I mean, let's be honest: nobody can understand a single word Mick Jagger sings. I also listen to a lot of latin jazz, which I can't understand because my Spanish isn't good enough to make sense of it. I think that, more often, people dislike growling and screaming because they don't like the texture of the sound rather than because they can't understand the words. I don't mean to tell you why you don't like something, but in my experience a lot of people I know have used the "I can't understand the words" excuse as a way of expressing something that's really completely different from what they mean. Of course, Children of Bodom (that band) mostly uses screams because death metal was trendy in Finland when they started playing. They're what metal fans often call "false metal." Here's a band that likewise uses growled vocals, and also has stuff that I think you'd find musically interesting: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
