are you dense?...slash and james hetfield are not stupid guitarists...they are actually very brilliant song writers...just because some guy is some over the top metal shredder doesnt automatically make them the better guitarist...i dont think that malmsteen or romeo are as good song writers metal wise as james hetfield...better technicians and lead players of course but that doesnt make everything...but i do feel alexi buries hetfield in all departmentsBloodyScalpel said:it's really lame to judge something by the scores it gets on american magazine reviews...it can work for videogames, but no for music.
I've lost count how many times in magazine 'guitarists top 100', tom morello, slash, james hetfield and other stupid guitarists were far ahead of michael romeo, michael ammot, alexi, malmsteen, the god ritchie blackmore.... magazines are just brainless, you have to admit that.
