man everyone thinks i hate dream theater, awww, i picked one coz i love em both, i got it wrong, maybe that was a while ago , good for you all, and by the way i would cream myself if pain of salvation did a tour with opeth
I died so many times listening to the solo in In The Name Of God the other day.
I really love the album and can stomach a lot of the solos by listening to everything but the guitar meanwhile, but good god the solo in In The Name... is just too shitty. Yeah, it's the fastest solo I've ever heard, and just as well the most terrible one, mind a few nu-metal bands' solos!
Petrucci could just stick with writing awesome riffs like in Home and In The Name...
Sure, he has written some good solos too. I can't remember the one in Home too well...I guess the case tends to be so that I only remember the bad solos, because I'm not much a guitar (/bass/synth/drum) solo person. They're nice of course and very often needed, but still. I'll have to give Home another listen tonight and pay attention to the solo.
