Yngwie Malmsteen

Renowned 80's metal guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen pioneered a neoclassical, technically proficient form of heavy metal that became the subject of staunch criticism. As he was among the first to launch a stringent focus on speed and proficiency in his music, he's become singlehandedly associated with the speed metal shredding movement, and consequently the artist that critics love to hate. While his success was indeed heavily associated with his formidable guitar skills, his ongoing album sales and persistent fanbase would suggest that he's more than just redundant speed.
