Hey, remember when Yngwie was revolutionary? I DON'T, BECAUSE I WASN"T BORN YET!!!
Or what about Happy Camper!heavier songs:
SYL - Detox
Yeah, before I always scoffed at people who said music could really touch you emotionally. I didn't scoff anymore after I'd heard DNB.Me too. That album opened my eyes and ears to a completely different world of heavy music.
And another thing I have to get off my chest, I haven't listened to Nevermore since I saw them in Seattle.. maybe once or twice when in Laura's car. TGE was great for the first couple of months, but there wasn't really much relistening going on. DHIADW was good to listen to on the bus going to school to have people give me weird looks. the only cds I even bother to listen to anymore are DNB and POE... MAYBE In Memory, and once in a while the self-titled... and that's RARELY for any of it. I haven't been listening to much music anymore, so what do I know?
I think The River Dragon is a fucking awesome song. I also think that what one person may feel about one song doesn't necessarily mean it's factual, but the opposing opinion doesn't either. The River Dragon solo isn't the most technical of all solos, but if someone feels that's the greatest solo of all time, then that's his or her opinion.
I personally think Time by Pink Floyd is the greatest solo of all time, but if you ask all the guitar dorks who think that just because a song has shredding it makes it a better song, they'd probably disagree and call you all kinds of names. It's all a matter of opinion.
I personally think that Yngwie Malmsteen is boring as hell, no matter how fast and technical he may be. I'll take Nuno Bettencourt over Yngwie any day of the week.
If someone thinks a band is flawless, then IN THEIR OPINION, they are flawless. Let's not crucify people for their personal taste.
Alice In Chains
Whats your favorite song from them? Mine would probably be Heaven Beside You but its the first one I heard.
My favorite song from AIC is Would?. However, I'm a slave to most of their stuff anyway. We Die Young, Love, Hate, Love, Sunshine, Them Bones, Down in a Hole, Dirt, A Little Bitter, Again, Grind, Over Now, AND THE ENTIRE JAR OF FLIES ALBUM.
They can do no wrong, imo.
