Hahahaha Michael Angelo fucking sucks at guitar. Its sooooo boring and predictable. Sweet he can play really fast, but thats all, a lot of people can play fast and still know fuck all about writing a good song.
I have to agree with him. There's no point in being a fast shredder if there's no progression or direction in your solo. Without direction, being really fast is just plain useless. If you want extreme shredding with progression, listen to some of Dragonforce's stuff (particularly "Through the Fire & the Flames").
And why in hell does he need a fucking quad-necked guitar? All it does for me is cause me to split my sides in laughter.
