[QUOTE=eddie_the_great]I've never liked Zakks solos. Nothing but wankage to me, but each to their own.[/QUOTE]

SuperTerrorizer. It's his best solo but I mean... he plays very similar solo's. He always chicken picks away towards similar pentatonic scales. It gets a little redundant. But that right there is proof of his skill.

Is this better?

Zakk is a great guitar player. In BLS he never tried to write anything complicated. He wanted everyone to enjoy simple music, and I absolutely love it. Solos sound great to me.

Yeah I know he's a good guitar player I've just never found his playing that interesting.

I pretty much agree, and also thats my opinion on Alexi

A bit of a change of subject but what do you guys think of Alexis live guitar playing? I've seen a few vids and in some he's perfect and in others he's painfully sloppy, mainly from when he had his Jacksons.

Yeah I know what you mean. Alexis solos can get tedious after a while, but I much prefer him to Zakk.

If you need proof of Zakks amazing skill listen to his work with Ozzy on "Breakin' All the Rules" and the intro to "Rock 'n Roll Rebell".

Hate Me isn't the worst song on FtR, WTF!

I don't need any proof of Zakks amazing skill. I've acknowledged he's a very good guitarist, but he's not someone that I enjoy listening to.

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Hate Me isn't the worst song on FtR, WTF![/QUOTE]

lol opinions. It's a good song but I prefer all the others more, I don't know why.

Edit: Sorry about the double posts. Is there any way to add a quote into an already written post?

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Hate Me isn't the worst song on FtR, WTF![/QUOTE]

Yeah I know I'm saying, thats like one of their two singles off the album.

Worst song on FTR...

I actually DO think it might be Hate Me. I really can't stand that song...

The little button with the speech bubble is the quote button. Hit edit, copy what you want to quote, and insert. :thumb:

Well, maybe Hate Me isn't the worst, but it's one of the less good songs on the album.

Or Hellion if that counts, but it's not written by CoB so I guess it doesn't.

How can you not like Hellion? I thought that was one of their best covers.

Yeah, but it doesn't compare to their originals and I'm not really a fan of cover songs.

Hate Me is great. I'm less fond of Taste of my Scythe.

And Kissing the Shadows.

Taste of my Scythe would be another one of the weaker tracks on the album. Kissing the Shadows and Mask of Sanity are still my favourites.

More proof that ESP > Jackson. :p

I think the worst song on FTR is either Mask of Sanity or Taste of my Scythe. Really, all the songs are awesome.

Or proof that Alexi's getting better at guitar :D

I'm selling my Jackson V to get an ESP or Ibanez now, it's not really my kinda guitar.

Another question... I see a lot of nuts and non-knowledgable people label these guys as black metal. WTF, R U SERIOUS? Like immortal, Emperor, Early Mayhem, and Gorgoroth? I don't think so.

My personal diagnosis is Power Metal with Harsh vocals. They use entirely power metal song structures and extras, but jjust don't use clean vocals. I can live with people calling em Melodic Death Metal as well.

What V is it?

Jackson Rhoads EX with a Dimarzio X2N

It's from 1992 or so, I got a good deal on it but I want something a bit more versatile.

I know what you mean. I know people who think they are black/death metal. The black metal elements are there, but barely. They're definately a power metal band, with death metal style vocals.

Wow... I own a Jackson and ESP, and still love Jackson more, and THOSE ARE MY TWO FAVORITE SONGS ON THAT ALBUM :angry:

What guitars have you got PsychoticFlubber?

None of the songs on Follow the Reaper are bad. My least favorites are probably Northern Comfort and Everytime I Die, but even they're incredible.

And by the way, Jackson > all. :D

I agree with the last statement. :naughty: Jackson = :cool:

Just a quick question, Are ESP's good guitars? I've heard that they have a bad sound quality but then again so many bands use them.

It would all be personal preference. Some people love them and some hate them. I like them.
