Well, the thing is, people often always jump to conclusions when faced with something. First impressions are the deepest. Probably something that has no melody would strike them that this person is playing absolute shit, but what they fail to realize is that these people do have great melodic works..
 
hahaha. dun worry dhalif. i guess dissing shredders is just most peoples way of doing the ' fox and the sour grapes ' story. well talib told me tt its gd to be humble. and he said sumthing about petrucci being able to do both fast n slow but most pple who diss shredders is cos they cant play fast.

ahaha. so let them diss n say all they want. but in the end fastest finger first. :D

Definitely. One song does not define technical or melodic prowess, not by a long shot.

This video was put here to showcase his technical ability.

Interesting views.

And honestly, what is it ppl have against speed. I dont know but I'm starting to sympathise with 'lif here.
 
aiya dhalif,

pple in this forum are still very much into playing skills - compare the replies in the open mic section and you'll know what i mean.

so you're not alone. it's pple like -whispering and pointing to self "me" who is in the minority.

so relax relax. -pats- 8)

and well, pooo, pple ARE judgemental and you've said it, first impressions last, so instead of beckoning objective views from a lightinghand video why not have something really tasteful up and let us drool over the musicality. :roll:

erm, pentatonic. no, it's actually not about being sour. it's about musicality.

however, it's all down to personal preference and the sharing of them, over here.

did i mention that i AM impressed by his speed?

why can't the world be like the bananas down there.. one is shredding.. another one is enjoying..

I love those bananas! :) (but I think the guitarnana looks like he is playing some Hawaiian love song, not shredding.)
 
Wow this guy is fast. But it sounded like the same scale and apps again and again. Yeah perhaps this isnt one of his serious videos, but from what i see, I just don't like it lol. Irritating sounds..Just posting my 2cents opinion.
 
yeah, but that guy in that video is obviously just shredding for the sake of shredding wat.

Well if you're a sprinter, then ppl will go "that dude is fast!"
well if you're a musician, dont you think it doesnt make sense for someone to go "Wow, that dude's is damn fast. But i cant hear a shit he's playing."

nobody is burning pettucci or yjm on a stake.

you're boiling over for nothing lif...
 
He's definitely not shredding for the sake of shredding. It's, like an art. Ask yourself, how many people, out of the billions in the world, have attained such a level? It's a discipline to be able to dedicate such an amount to train technical ability.

well if you're a musician, dont you think it doesnt make sense for someone to go "Wow, that dude's is damn fast. But i cant hear a shit he's playing.

Sure there are short comings in his playing, but did you even bother to listen to his composed works?

None of us can hear a shit he's playing in that video, for the simple reason that the video was made to "showcase his ability", as mentioned earlier..
 
+1 to what pooo said.

The whole idea is to showcase his technical prowess. Yet, make no mistake. He can shred, yes, but he is also very very melodic. All in all, he's what I call a -fantastic- guitarist. Right up there with people like JP, Satch...

Trend = put down those who aren't recognized :cry:

That's what I don't understand!

Sure, you may be entitled to your personal opinion, i.e. "speed sux", but just because you think that way, doesnt mean you have to put down any fast guitarist like FF, YJM...

Just because you have a personal opinion doesnt mean that you're correct, everybody else is wrong, or you're wrong, everyone else is correct.

And your personal opinion sure as hell doesnt entitle you to putting down another musical genre.

I dislike pop. I dislike punk. Do I say anything about it? Does pooo? Does anyone?
 
hey man now you're puttin words in my mouth...

I like YJM okay. I never said speed sux.

I just feel that this dude is plain show off. and its not point training and practicing so hard to play a flurry of notes at 240 bpm that sounds like crap.
 
Dude. I never said anything about you, man. You misunderstand.

I was referring to the general populace. I never said anything about you. :lol:
