Michael Jackson Meets Metal

Folks

This cat is a guitar player with more style than most. Classical and orchestra trained with some traces of Alexi Blaiho and other metal guys.

Possibly the most aggressive, yet precise player I've heard in a while.

This fellow certainly knows what to do with the songs he records - he has a series of which my favorite was "Walking Dead Meet Metal" where he interprets movie scores or whatever takes his fancy.

He made a point in an interview that we on Bandmix dance around quite a bit. He was asked who he thought the best five guitar players are. He noted that 'best' doesn't work with artists - so he named his 'favorite.'

That video seems like he is matching notes with an already-recorded tracks (as opposed to laying a lead track over a backing track) - I can hear delay/feedback overtones on notes that don't match his fingering.

Fancy and fast playing, but absolutely no feeling in it.
