    Adler has a lot of talent and he works extremely hard. Travis Smith however, LOL, Trivium sucks put Brann Dailor and Marco Minneman on there for amazing, innovative talent. I wouldn’t put death metal on there just because I don’t think fast blast beats are creative. Although Inferno is a beast.
