Karina_666 said:Dan Spitz can't play lead? God, I didn't realize this was the kiss Rob Caggiano's ass message board. Yeah, Dan can come off like a prick, but he's the best lead guitarist Anthrax ever had, followed by Paul Crook.

jpike said:I hope they keep them also. I think its the best way to keep their legacy in heavy metal history. everyone remembers anthrax with THIS LINEUP not the 90's hired hand, new direction, different style, bullshit of an excuse they had for getting Bush and Rob.
tomass74 said:Yeah, I am really hoping for ATLEAST one killer album from this line-up... The true follow up to POT..I can see how Joey sounds dated in some of the old Anthrax stuff but that was the time.. The band seems to have gotten heavier and Joey in my opinion sounded great on Alive 2.. I think they could really make something special and ass kicking...

Why dont you explain why you think they are average and forgettable? Name some songs that his leads suck and what would you do to change them mr. guitar lead expert.max said:i always thought dan's leads were merely average and forgettable.

Let me guess JudasPriest doesnt have any good guitar solos either??whitey131 said:I don't think Dn is a bad player but he's hardly a god amongst players. i don't really think Rob was a stand out either. There's nothing wrong with that. Slayer has never recorded a single good guitar solo ever.

whitey131 said:I guess I can't have an opinion. I just don't think anthrax has ever had a stand out WOW lead player like a Dimebag, marty friedman, type.

schenkadere said:Slayer is all about force...they're cool, but the guitar solos are horrendous...I don't think they ever intended them to be great works of musicianship. The guitarists for Anthrax are what they are...I don't think they ever considered themselves guitar heros...they get the job done. Not all bands have guitar heros, but thank goodness the guitar solo is on the comeback.
That said, anyone mentioned here is better than Kirk Hammett...does anyone agree he is one of the most overrated guitarists ever?
max said:yes kirk hammett is waaayyy over-rated and plays out of tune.
schenkadere said:His dynamics are nonexistent, his phrasing sucks, as well as his attack and vibrato. Again, he does the job, but I never understood why he got so much attention. Kids can certainly find a better guitar hero.
