yeah well i think, nobody has mentioned his name but me haha. is still he deserves mor recognition .
Steinar Gundersen was sick with Spiral Architect
Just because nobody mentioned his name yet doesn't mean he's underrated.
I'm also a pretty big fan of some Death alumni as well (in regards to the Nevermore alumni reference):
Paul Masvidal
Andy LaRocque
Ralph Santolla
Bobby Koelble
Shannon Hamm
All worth a look at, especially the last two who are the most underrated of those listed.
I don´t know, how famous Jari Mäenpää really is..but he´s one of the MASTERS. He should get some more attention imo!

Tipton is the shit
I really don't see why people are so impressed with Tipton. I've never been a fan of Priest; but all this talk about how great this guy is, i've been on a Priest listening spree this weekend... and I have to say I don't see what you all see in him.
Maybe it's just one of those things where if you grew-up on Priest music, and if he was your inspiration to play guitar, then I could see how you might worship him. But for a non-Judas listener like myself, I don't see anything magical about his playing. Maybe I'm missing something? He does have some good solos and some great moments, but nothing that makes me think that he's this almighty "god" that people make him out to be.
I'm not bashing Tipton, and i'm not bashing any of you that think he's an awesome player... it's just a viewpoint that I don't share and quite frankly don't understand.
Felix, you wrote that you study guitar in Munich ?
