Check out this video:
It's of In Flames playing the hive live. I was very happy to see that they had begun playing this song live again. I was however dissapointed to see than bjorn pretty much dumbed down the solo. I commented on this on youtube and recieved a lashback of bitchy in flames fanboys who couldnt stand me criticising their beloved band.
Here's a message i just recieved entitled: "lol retard"
enuff said. Your so fucking stupid to bash bjorn's playing skills live. Have u been to a fucking concert before? do you know how fucking phsyically demanding it is to play a set of 8+ songs? By saying he is dumbing down the solo by using single taps instead of double your a fucking retard, sounds the fucking same. name me a fucking guitarist who can play 10 songs, nailing every fucking solo and not just any solo, double taps.
Wait whats that? you cant? go fuck your self you know absolutely shit about performing. Post a video of your self doing that solo pls, i bet you cant fucking do it using single tapping.
*awaits angry reply*
PS i hope you get struck by lightening and end up a vegatable in the hospital.
And my response:
Yes, I've been to a concert before, in fact, I've seen In Flames live before. Regardless of how physically demanding it is to play a set of 8 songs, i really doubt playing that solo properly demands much physical effort. As it happens I can play that solo as tight as on the album, it's one of the very few solos as of yet that I have enough skills to play, and I've only been playing guitar for a little over a year and a half.
"Sounds the fucking same"
You are obviously the one who knows nothing about music as single taps and double taps do NOT sound the same.
"not just any solo, double taps"
you say that as if double taps are hard to do... they aren't!
You obviously have had little exposure to any metal with technical, advanced guitar playing. Watch Dream Theater, Necrophagist, Symphony X, hell even Arch Enemy for crying out loud. These guys can all perform their solos near perfectly live!
My main point is that if I a novice guitar player can play this solo tight. Bjorn who is obviously a much better guitar player than me, should not have to massacre the solo to play it live.
What do you guys think about the issue?
