Who the hell is Munky?

 

[byrne]

And who the hell is 23.K.K. Dpwning
And what is the fucking ideas of this list anyway.
You can´t list the best guitarist in the world for fuck sake.
Phill Lynot is better guitarist than those.

im so conflicted about that post. overall, you cant comment seeing as how you dont know who kk downing is. props for the thin lizzy reference though.

i didnt read the whole thing, but if mustaine isnt there, its a shit list. itd probably still be shit with him on it, but not as shit. he dominates kirk, no question about it.

marty friedman or jason becker there? alf svensson or anders bjorler? i also always though john christ was underrated. not the greatest of all time, but a good player none the less.

There would have been more props if Phil Lynott hadn't been the fucking bassist.

 

[Stormwatch]

Nuno Bettencourt - 64?!?!
and Paul Gilbert - 44?!?!

Two of the best guitarists ever. That is one shit list

Er, right. What exactly have either of them ever done other than widdle? Gilbert is amusing to watch, but what great metal albums has he been on? And Bettencourt is even worse - for fuck sake what the hell has he ever done?

 

[Carcassian]

Sucked cock?

 

[chell]

How in the world does someone mistake John McLaughlin for metal?/???????

 

[A1a23]

Those were the worst fucking lists ive ever seen. How the fuck did they get put into a fucking magazine?

 

[Astrum]

i have no idea.....

but then again, this is the magazine that GLORIFIES slipknot as metal.

 

[Astrum]

Who the hell is Munky?

the guitarist for not-metal band Korn

 

[Ender Rises]

45.Kurt Cobain

Enough said.

 

[Hatebreeder]

I don't even read those lists anymore. I used to read them back in the day when I wanted recommendations for bands, but now they just piss me off because they have frequently let me down.

 

[Astrum]

Enough said.

i know, right? nirvana is one of the few non metal bands i really like, and kurt cobain is a great musician, RIP, but he is not a really good guitarist. at all.

 

[Ender Rises]

Good writer, excellent lyricist, shit guitarist.

 

[Astrum]

exactly.

 

[Hatebreeder]

Good writer, excellent lyricist, shit guitarist.

Never have I heard a better description of one of America's most overrated guitarists. But he did create a lot of music by which garage bands around the globe can get started by.

 

[Ender Rises]

His music is fun to play the first 3 months or so of playing guitar, but after that it gets old quick.

 

[Skepticism]

They dont even have Chuck on the list.

 

[MetalBooger]

i think this list would appeal to your average 14 year old with a jim morrison t shirt. im sure ashlee simpson would agree with the logic behind this list.

malmsteen should be higher, i really think he can play any genre with equal coolness if he just toned down on the speed.

 

[MetalHeadMarc]

The real joke is that there are good black metal guitarists. Well....atleast not ten of them.

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

and below, is the top 10 black meal guitarists of all time





1. Alex Skolnik, Testament2. Bill Steer, Carcass
3. Alex Hellid, Entombed
4. Trey Azagoth, Morbid Angel
5. Hank Sherman, Mercyful Fate
6. Will Adler, Lamb Of God
7. Mantas, Venom
8. Marten Hagstrom, Meshuggah
9. Tom G. Warrior, Celtic Frost
10. Rick Hunolt, Exodus

Alex Skiolnik is black metal by double proxy, because Dragonlord was founded by a member of Testament and Dragonlord is watered-down pseudo black metal, so that list is technically correct.
