what are you talking about?

they havent been good since devine intervention. god hates us all is terrible.

[Fisting The Dead]

Hey! God Hates us All is not terrible! It's not nearly as good as the old stuff, though. I'd much rather listen to new Slayer than new Metallica.

[Frost]

The last few slayer albums havent been that bad, I can't see how people can have slipknot guartists as there favourites

[Fisting The Dead]

Hahaha. Yeah, I don't see how people could list someone from Slipknot as a favorite guitarist either, I just didn't say anything because I didn't want to be rude to that fellow.

[carl]

There's too many wonderful players for me to have a fave: Stevie Ray Vaughn was actually the best I ever heard live.
I'd like to list some guitarists that impress me as Stylists:
I dunno his name but the main guy who played in Abigor, rip;
It, especially on Dominion;
Infernus with Gorgoroth;
Ishahn;
both of the guys in Nile;
Blasphemer;
and ( hahaha!!) whoever the fuck played that wonderful shit on 666 International.
***I'll post again when I remember the others I like.

[Reincremation]

Oh, slipknot has a guitarist? I thought that was just someone beating a guitar into a wall.

[crispykid88]

mick thompson is under stimated ive seen things of him just screwing around and its insane

[Frost]

Slipknot don't deserve to be called a band there more along the lines of a bland

[crispykid88]

hey frost shut it i dont care what u think dont judge my favorite guitarists it has nothing to do with u.........i look up to them as an insperation not u.....................and mick thompson is under estimated if u ever heard some shit he plays u would be surprised he can play increadable solos and the only reasone slipknot doesnt have then onn there cds is because there producer doesnt let them but, now they got a new producer so there playing solos and shit................and if u dont like them who cares cause i do i could throw some comments about some of the bands u like and your favorite guitarits but im not yet so keep it to yourself

[Frost]

If you don't care why are you replying?!? Slipknot write stuff so it will sell and the kids into them will like it!! You don't know any of the bands i like and any of my favourite guartists so shut it you lemming!

[crispykid88]

lemming???....wel what are your favoriet guitarists wait,james hetfield or kirk hammett you fucking panzee

[Reincremation]

Everyone says that Mick Thompson is secretly a good guitarist, and I believed it, but I decided to listen to that "Pulse of the Maggots" song just to give it a chance, and the "solo" in it was that biggest piece if shit I had ever heard. If Mick Thompson is a good guitarist, then what the fuck is Jon from Dissection? A fucking god? Well, actually he is a god anyway, but slipknot and their "guitarists" can fuck off.

[Frost]

Yes a lemming go listen to your hatebreed and killswitch engange mediacore commerical bullshit!

And no the loser humans from metallica are not my favourite at all a few of mine would be Buzz Osbourne Hank Shermann Samoth and a fair few others!

Quickley go watch headbangers ball you may get to see a "kool" ill nino and chimaira video

[Goddess Of Fire]

Corporate Death-Macabre
Trey from Morbid Angel
Erik Rutan from Hate Eternal/Morbid Angel
Mikael Akerfeldt-Opeth
Bart from Sinister
Jack Owen from Cannibal Corpse

Can't think of anymore right now

[LakeOpeth]

:D :p

Oh deary me!

Dude, you don't have to be some kind of shredding maniac to be a good guitarist. Besides, "old" Metallica is great...they wrote some of the best songs ever written!

I can listen to Slipknot...I admit I don't mind songs like "Sic" or "Eyeless", but in comparison to real Metal, I find it quite boring. Nu Metal as a whole is pretty limited in my opinion.

I'm not a musician, so I can't waffle on about how technical things are, but some of my favourites would be:

Mikael Akerfeldt - Opeth
Euro/ Blasphemer - Mayhem
Ihsahn/ Samoth - Emperor
Peter - Vader
Vogg - Decapitated
Alexi Laiho - Children of Bodom

[carl]

Alexi Laiho - Children of Bodom

I'm not a big fan of their brand of rock but he was indeed good live.
Slipknot ?? ...for fucksake, JEEsus H. Christ... Slipknot is a silly commercial band of sell out dolts. :)

[bloodswords]

fav BM players (No order of merit):

Blasphemer (Mayhem)
Kottelin/ Svartz (The Legion)
Morgan S. (Marduk)
Destructor (Myrkskog)
Ihsan/ Samoth (Emperor)
Abbath (Immortal)
Mick Kenney (Anaal Nathrak)

other non-BM players are too many to list...
with regards to Slipknot- Mick Thompson is a guitar teacher, the stuff he plays with the band isn't the true capacity of what he can do.

yes, some of our fav players aren't too technically versed, but they trigger a common reference, enough to make ourselves affiliate with them
:cool:

[Dimas]

Blasphemy! I haven't seen the one true guitar player around!

Chuck Schuldiner (Death, Control Denied). May he rest in piece

For the rest:

Tipton/KK Downing
Murray/Smith/Gers
King/Hannemann
Sanders/Toyler-Wade
Ihsahn
Abbath
Trey Azaghtoth

and a lot more

"arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics.even if you win your still retarded

[Fisting The Dead]

Hahaha. Well, I think that debating is one thing, but then arguing that includes personal attacks is another which isn't ok. Debating is fine. As for Mick Thomson, I think he's just average. Nothing special.

[antimosh003]

Euronymous
Yngwie Malmsteen
Steve Vai
Buck Dharma -Blue Oyster Cult
dimebag- Pantera
Nocturno
Uli Jon Roth- Scorpions
Michael Schenker- Ufo/Scorpions/MSG
John Sykes- Whitesnake/ Tygers of pantang
Page Hamilton- Helmet

[antimosh003]

how could I forget Blasphemer also :D tut tut tut tut

[emperadorXXIV]

SLAYER were really cool, I liked them. I'm less of a SLAYER fan now. Kerry did a music video for a pop/punk band called SUM 41. I want to know how this has gone unnoticed. I am a Kerry fan though, jejeje.

[Fisting The Dead]

Yeah, I was fucking disgusted when I saw that music video. But hey! Seasons in the Abyss was pretty good!

[bazooka]

Trey Azagthoth!!
and of course Euronymous

[PhxMayhem]

Randy Rhoads, Kerry King/Jeff Hanneman, Scott Ian.

[torpor]

not in order:

Abbath-Immortal
Ihsahn-Emperor
Blasphemer-Mayhem
Morgan-Marduk
Mike Amott-ex-Carcass
