You have talent. Especially for your age. Some good phrases in there. Room to grow of course. I'd like to see where you progress to with time. So stick around!

I can't help but point out that Cobain's whole movement was a negative reaction to the very style that you put on his song. In other words I'm sure some folks would say he would be rolling over in his grave if he heard it. A drunken Eddie Van Halen Came to a Nirvana show and wanted to ... "jam". No Eddie, just no.

I just saw someone on a different forum saying they cant belive how much I improved, I have no idea what video they were reffering to. Im uploading videos for 4 years.. It could be anything XD

And I can see what you mean, people hated me on the Nirvana forum.. I just cant see how boring solos (the vocal line on guitar.. thats anything BUT interesting) can be considered an artistic choise. I really dont care if the solo doesnt has a single scale run, as long as its interesting.

OK Willie we get it, you're so controversial and outrageous. Now get your willie out of your hands and make some music. If it isn't posted here it didn't happen. :wink: :wink:

The solo in this song starts at 3:07. I think it kills. It is simple. It draws from the vocal melody. Tone, attack, ferocity, without Having the bad tones and gaudy hangups metal. This guy mastered that.

Thats one good solo, my only complaint that its too short. Would love to see him go on in that direction..
