shred

n the context of an electric guitar, "shredding" refers to a virtuosic, highly technical style of playing the instrument, as exemplified by the virtuosos of the eighties such as Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen or Michael Angelo Batio

Other guitarists include jason becker and marty friedman
____________________

The technique consists of complex fast speed picking and sweeping, performing lightning fast riffs and solos

____________________

It's popularity plummeted along with most other metal genres with the arrival of the very simple genre Grunge, which focused on talentless musicians who hadnt bothered to learn their instrument with the passion of shredders

____________________

It has been said that shredding is a very boring experience which focuses more on showing off than showing emotion, which is a description used only by people who do not understand guitar...It is a master class in how much energy and focus you should put into learning your instrument and should be admired not ridiculed...

______________________

Most recent shredders include dragonforce guitarist Herman Li and the very plain rusty cooley
Shred is not used in Nu Metal or other bland genres, which focus more on hip hop or electronic noises...shred is the music for people who have took time to master their skill on guitar

Linkin park.

The worst excuse for a "Metal" band in the history of the world

Pop Rock group who sing about the same things, how they feel hurt, how they are misunderstood....Just like their fans think their lives are like.

They are millionaires and still moan and say they are sad...to get more money.

Fans are usually 13 year old "skaters" who think its hardcore and non mainstream...

Pathetic...Hopefully they "breakup" like all other boy bands
LP Fan "Did you go to the Linkin Park gig"

Me "No i went to see Manowar and Slayer instead"

LP Fan "Who?"

Me "Oh you know , bands that are METAL!"

LP Fan "Probably not as metal as LP"

Me "Fuck off you retard, go back with the cattle"

rhapsody

An Italian Epic Power/Symphonic Metal Band. Debut album was released in 1997 and is very original and very enjoyable. Major classical and neoclassical influences. Songs are complex, some are predictable but they have an impressive discography. A similar band is Luca Turilli who is of course the guitarist of Rhapsody.
Black Dragon is NOT a Rhapsody song, it is Luca Turilli!
