Volbeat is awesome!!!
 
Volbeat is awesome!!!

I've seen them twice in concert now. Both times they opened for Metallica. The first time I saw them was about 8 years ago and I was hooked. I saw them open for Metallica again this year and they were just as good as the first time I saw them. They sound great live.

Mark Tremonti.
Multiple Guitar World awards, including POY and best solo of all time on Blackbird, which is up there with Freebird, IMHO.
He's released two albums, recorded at the same time, that span from pre-Creed days up through the present Alter Bridge time: even his "B" songs kill it and there's not a bad tune with his name on it.
 
Wow, no one has posted on this thread since early 2018. Rock can’t be dead?

I guess this song would fall in between the category listed on the thread, but a late memorial to the great EVH who was known for his “brown sound” and his “pyrotechnics”. One of my guitar heroes. This song IMHO is one of the underrated VH song and to me this is quintessential EVH like how he played when he was in his prime- it is one of the most eclectic sounding songs that has grunge, hard rock and neo-classical mix. It has a dark riff and vibe, but with the typical happy EVH injection. You can hear a lot of early EVH influences from his fill-ins and solo sections. Keep in mind that this was a 1996 song- way passed grunge era, way past the hard rock scene and hm era.

 
I can't believe no one has linked Avenged Sevenfold, Disturbed, Five Finger Death Punch, Killswitch Engage, Bullet for my Valentine or 3 days grace

They have, I know Disturbed's remake of "S O S" was on here at one time. I think one or two of the others were either linked of mentioned at one time.

See you mention the calming cool soothing sounds of home....

Those may have been in the other music topic....
 
Progressive metal is such a wide genre, but I really like the vibe of this group “System of a Down:


AND



Don’t judge my music taste just on these example alone as I have wide range of genre that I play and listen to from classical, jazz, blues, r&b, funk, soul, reggae, rock, metal, pop and yes hip hop......everything else in between.

I agree Arn. I listen to a lot of different music. A music teacher I had one time said you can't criticize any one type of music if you don't listen to it ALL. My favorites are country, rock and hard rock/heavy metal
 
As a guitarist playing for over 35 years, I listen to a lot of instrumentals. It doesn’t matter if it is a violin, cello, trumpet, saxophone, etc. I actually like the when another artist covers another artist work- they either make it theirs or make it something you just don’t expect or they make it worse. If you like that “adrenaline push”, you listen to the original of what I posted of System of a Down, “Toxicity”. This guy here takes it to a different vibe and feel- the energy is there, but it is a lot more percussive and has a lot of subtleties:

 
I do not know for which y'all are speaking of. Are any of those guys related to George, Waylon, Kris, or Willie. I guess I exist in a small world - only hea v metaphor know about is fishing sinners and muscle ca rs!
