08.23.08 | but everybody hates Dragonforce man.
and Malmsteen rules. |

08.23.08 | this list is overrated
though I agree with half of it |

08.23.08 | Yeah, I hear he has a 36 inch penis actually... |
SHOOTME
08.23.08 | also, Kerry King is good for riffs, not solos. I admit, his solos are bad, but he should not be complete scathed at because of it. He is actually a good guitarist with some nice riffs who just happens to suck at solos. |

08.23.08 | Yngwie Malmsteen looks like my aunt who hasnt bought new clothes since 1983 and has gained 50 pounds since then which coincidently is the same problem as Malmsteen.
oh, and Rising Force kicks ass. |

08.23.08 | His riffs are decent, I just don't see what sets him apart from other thrash guitarists really... Maybe its just that I'm sick of thrash... |

08.23.08 | Joey actually has more to his drumming then speed. As far as metal drummers go, he's pretty tasteful and pretty good, but that one I can understand...he is kind of overrated.
Cliff Burton...I'm sorry man, no way. He played bass, bass was his thing, and he said he wanted to be the best bass player in the world. Just because he used guitar distortions and stuff like that doesn't make him a guitarist. There's different types of bass...not everyone's gotta slap or pluck to make them good. For what Metallica was, Cliff was the perfect bassist. His playing was gorgeous, it really was. (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth is amazing. His use of distortions and wah...man. Just cause it was guitar stuff doesn't mean he wasn't a good bassist.
Ok...I'm done. Still a good list. |

08.23.08 | I never said he was bad, just overrated. He's certainly the best bassist they've had. Trujillo is a freaking joke. And I know not all people have to slap and pluck...like Death From Above 1979's bassist uses distortion and it fits perfectly. Maybe its just that everybody I know always harps on how metallica is the greatest band of all time and its just made me sort of sick of them |

08.23.08 | (Anesthesia) Pulling Teeth is fucking retarded. Victor Wooten is the man foo! |
jingledeath
08.23.08 | the list is a brilliant failure.joey is brilliant, listen to the new slipknot album then say what u want.i also disagree with 5 and 8. |
RoshanC
08.23.08 | I agree with 2, he is technically skilled, but so many of his songs are just showing off.
Cliff Burton was good, perfect for Metallica, its just metal fans piss me off when they say he's the best bassist ever. And i swear i can never hear a bass solo in orion. its just a great riff with a few fills |
marksellsuswallets
08.23.08 | Actually I say that having listened to tracks off of all slipknot's albums, including MFKR, and he's just not special. He doesn't do anything that any generic death metal can't do. |
ninjuice
08.23.08 | Well, you fail for putting 8 and 9 on here, and Young is the only good thing about AC/DC
However I agree with Young and Green Day.
List needs Jeff Buckley. |
brandtweathers
08.23.08 | under appreciated: guitartist from #12lly |

08.23.08 | You sir, are my hero. That man deserves a statue IMO |
marksellsuswallets
08.23.08 | That was actually going to be my next list
Under appreciated musicians |
ASberg
08.23.08 | I dont see yngwie as overrated nowdays, i never met one single person who has all positive opinions of him. Cliff was the man so that is a fail in my book. I dont think Kerry is horrible at playing solo, just writing them. |
marksellsuswallets
08.23.08 | Well in my opinion, the term musician would necessitate the ability to write as well as play. So there lies my reasoning for that. I figured the mention of Cliff Burton would piss people off, but hey, its just one man's opinion... |
kitsch
08.23.08 | do any of these need to be said? |
PuddleSwimmer
08.23.08 | Malmsteen's so fucking full of himself and he's not interesting at all to listen to.
I agree with most of this list.
Esp. Malmsteen |

08.23.08 | thank you for not putting Maynard on here, because I would've fucking killed you. fucking killed you. |
marksellsuswallets
08.23.08 | Maynard is a-ok in my book man. |

08.24.08 | maynard can suck my balls
