(okay i dont have anything aganst chris I think he's awesome, but this is true) Chris doesn't hold it anymore, go to dean guitars website or even type this in Google "Sunday, February 01, 2009 MAB" the first website that pops up should tell you that's the day he was voted the fastest shredder of 2009, but anyway i think there both awesome guitar shredders so yeah.
I like Gary Moore better than all of them, after Jimi of course. If you listen to more than 3 or 4 of his songs, and really take a listen to his 16+ albums, you'll find him to be nothing less than fantastic!
Ohmura is good example of how Impellitteri influenced many Japanese musicians. If you are an Impellitteri fan, just watch this and you will know what I'm talking about.
To bad he's better than Yngwie, you are complaining about him ripping yngwie? Well yngwie is just ripping classical artists such as Bach and Beethoven. so w/e this guy is amazing, simple riffs etc but still very powerful. I love it :D
I own well over 1000 metal, shred and guitar CDs and he's one of my top 5. And ys, I come to youtube often to check out famous guitarsts all the time. I've been his fan since day 1 and his songs never get old. If you don't have anything nice to say, just don't say.
If you know any Japanese people who are into metal, ask them about Impellitteri. He's freaking huge over there. Listen to his releases recorded in Japan. Production is so freaking tight. I like how all his songs are simple, short yet powerful.
In 20+ years of playing this guy didn't learn a thing i see. Check out his myspace...dragons and elf maidens...JEESUS. You'd expect to hear something more mature than this clichee power metal hyperspeed groove-ish thing, combined with uninspired machine gun solos just to show off from a guy as old as my father :)). No wonder he never made it big
Pfffft, like you have any clue what I listen to. All this guy has ever done is rip off Yngwie Malmsteen from day 1 and Yngwie can play circles around this poser, case closed.
That just proves that you don´t know what you are talking about. Chris has a very different style and sound than Yngwie. If ypu cant´t hear and see that then I feel sorry for you, you have alot to learn about music. Case closed, period.
Chris tone is so much brighter, he almost only uses his bridge pick up, uses a really thin pick while Yngwie uses much stiffer picks (big difference, not kidding). Chris picks using his whole arm and hits real hard, and uses alot of downstrokes (which all guitar player should know produces a totaly different sound) while Yngwie uses mostly his wrist picking smoothly.
It´s really a big difference in sound and tone. On most of his recordings Chris uses humbucker guitars, he just poses with strats (ok, that´s a Yngwie copy, but we all know Yngwie copied Hendrix and Blackmore there so we can´t blame Chris there really can we?)
I have never ever seen Yngwie play anything like 17the Century chicken picking. Chris uses his uniqe pickingstyle and arpeggio legato and tapping licks that Yngwie never have and never will use.
I'm tired of you whining on how Chris ripped of Yngwie. If you love him so much, go comment on some of his music and leave every Chris fan alone. God, you're worse than my 10 year old brother.
Yep...Chris grabs a Zakk Dean SG V thingy whatever, guitar...tunes down a bunch....fires up the ENGL amp...pinchs some cheap shots....blazes on rippen riffs...serves it up hot, and spanks...EVERY FRIGGIN ONE!!...CHEERS, "CLINK"
P.S. lose the singer...call G B...epic band found, nuff said.
I love that typical Impellitteri solo run at 2:23. However i`m kinda dissapointed that he ditched the strat and Plexis. But i adore his mutes and squeals with the ENGLs at 1.52. It`s ironical, that with this modern sound, he kinda sounds like MAB at times.
It's probably not a good idea to compare, but if you're talking shredding speed, MAB was ranked 1st, with Chris in 2nd. But hey, to me it means nothing because i can't tell.
It's great to listen to this band's stuff with modern-day quality. Why couldn't thrash metal reach it's popularity peak now? Also, I am dissapointed that Chris ditched the Strat. That was part of his charm...
okay, the song rocks, lyrics are awesome, very catchy chorus, nice drumming, awesome guitar riffs, but one thing i don't like and that's that friggin synt on backround or smth.
The thing is. Why didn't Sobel record the drum tracks (it was "Brandon Wild" whomever he is) if he's back with the band? One could say "lack of time for studio" but the album took a LONG time to finish so I still wonder what's up with that.
The album itself rocks! Sure I could see a song or two with some changes but I give it a solid 8/10 for ANY metal fan.
Why are all you fags talking about the drummers looks? Just because your not attracted to him doesn't mean that he can't beat the shit out of the skins.
