guys he might actually be right.. what if he was just opening up for obituary as deicide? ever thought of that? i think pammiefay might be on to something here *ahem retard ahem*
i am not a big death metal fan. But i admit that a lot of death metal bands have very talented members. Death metal drumming especially is very powerful. (But obviously not the video with the nerd in his office. Lol)

Ralph is good at what he does like Angus Young more feel than tech too me.@Femicide09 that dude is not getting laid a lot because he's in Obituary and touring;in case you haven't noticed Death band's aren't really chick magnet's but I do respect your stand,however Ralph ugly dude good guitar player lucky to receive a pussy offering.
I really liked Ralph's work with Deicide. It was often really interesting with all the dissonance and whacky harmonies. I look at Ralph as like a death metal Michael Schenker.
hes an innovater of the instrument, he outshines alot of guitarists these days. put it this way put ralph up against someone like the guitarist from beneath the massacre or any of those stalky ass bands. he blows them out of the fucking water.
I disagree. Maybe with BTM, sure they're some what technical but it's all scales and BS, but other bands like After the Burial or Born of Osiris would give this guy a bad name. Sure B.O.O doesn't write much technical stuff, but Tosin is far better at guitar than Ralph in my opinion.
My crappy guitar playing? You mean the 2 videos I have purposly mocking crappy bands? No way! I thought playing the same riffs for 10 minutes was good. Anyways, I study theory and have been for quite awhile, and a lot of newer bands compose better, musically and technically. BTW, I saw your cute little happy birthday video, I just love how you insulted my playing. Take some vibrato lessons.
Wow are you serious? I JUST told you they were joke videos making fun of bands that only palm mute and hammer on yet you still can't realize they're not serious? Those plaques don't mean jack either, Solja Boi has won awards yet he's not talented one bit. And your vibrato is horrible. Way too rapid with no emotion at all.
The joke is that you talk smack about great musicians, but you can't even hold time while you're "making fun of" others.
I'm so glad that the world has been blessed with someone like you to say who's talented and who's not. Next time I produce a band, I'll hit you up and see if you approve first.
My vibrato is actually really slow, nitwit. What planet are you living on???
I don't need to prove to anyone I'm better than those 'great musicians'. Go listen to some Bring Me The Horizon and tell me they're talented. All they do is hammer on/ pull off and have breakdowns. I love Ralph/Decide, but I've seen far better players who get less respect simply cause they're in cliche bands or newer DM bands.. And until I see/hear anything else from you, I'm convinced your vibrato sounds like garbage. You're talking 'smack' about me, yet you have no proof you're good at all.
Like I said, you don't know squat about guitar playing and your super crappy playing that you posted on your dumbass videos proves my point to anyone who actually has a pair of ears.
I really don't know how to make this any more clear. My videos are PURPOSELY bad, making fun of the BAD bands. Take a deep breath and re-read, and hopefully some day you'll realize it. Unlike your video, where you were actually trying to sound good, yet still sounding like crap. Now go practice some pentatonic scales and brag about how good you are to some Guitar Hero fanatics.
Ralph Santolla from Tampa? King High?No fucking way. 1982 Mazda? You gotta be shittin' me. Ralph if you happen along this; its floyd dude. Remember playing in Steve Hodson's garage with Phil Cherry, Art Varnador? Shit Bro-those were the days

Your meter was horrible just playing the chug chug. Knowing theory doesn't mean jack... Jimi, Eddie, SRV, - they all play(ed) by ear.
My vibrato is fine. I'll be making some vids playing real stuff soon, and I'll be sure to invite you to watch.
