Marc Rizzo in Houston Tx.

[z4ang3tsu]

he's using flamenco techniques too in this vid...he's such an amazing guitarist

[maspa307193720]

Marck rizzo es el mejor.

[jonathanascencio133]

I thought he was Italian, he seems more of a Spaniard to me!!

[parsleysprigs]

Damn I wanted to hear him do the whole song. I kind of freaked rizzo out when I seen him here in colorado. I was really fucking drunk. I seen him at this bar/concert hall venue, it was a small place so he had to come through the front. I was really fucking drunk, did I mention I was really drunk. And I seen him walking up to the place with his back back and guitar on his back, I was like "HOLY SHIT YOUR THE RIZZO, I LOVE YOU MAN" he was all like uh yeah. I got his autograph on my ID.

[escapy26]

@ 2:06 ... what a riff mann!!! so refreshing!!

[jens17676]

Great guitarist.

[TuGinecologo]

what is the name od the thing that he uses to support his guitar? (sorry for my english, really i speak only spanish)

[Jenswsmjens]

Jup. He's superman.

[tokman20]

:D amazing. i wish i could play like that.

[jagerslayer]

saw him live in york PA...unreal shit..and i never see him in guitar world or anything..very underatted

[Keribug1]

friggin AWESOME!! such a great talent!!!

[Hucho]

in spain they would piss on this guy

[TheCrowbar666]

@Hucho why ???

[Hucho]

@TheCrowbar666 Because this guy can't play for shit in this style. It is the same like some guy who learnt his first blues lick on a guitar. In China they would say wow he plays blues, but in USA he plays like a kid.

[dimebad]

@Hucho how many of those guys in spain also play metal music? and fuse the two styles? how many of those guys incorporate shred from the metal side of guitar?

your a fuckin idiot.

[VJTheVigilante]

@Hucho I'm sure there are really players in spain who have this style down to a science. but he is awesome player. I am a metalhead and an aspiring classical/flamenco guitar player who would have never have even thought of playing this style. Rizzo opened my eyes to a completely different type of guitar style. So I what you are saying is if you'r not from spain you should be completely discouraged to try to play flamenco

[laputaquepariolosnic]

no toca mal el chico pero todavia le falta mucho pa tocar como paco de lucia.. ese es e puto dios del flamenco.

[RulerOfEleven]

sounds nice great job

[skulldhani101]

hell yeah best guitarist in the world

[libofsharaku]

i saw this guy in ozzfest back in 2001 and he was quite non descript although ill nino blew the fuckin roof off, they really gave everyone a kick up the arse, then i did my research on this guy and i've been a fan ever since, this dude is highly ranked in my book, he plays the stuff i like, unbridled skill and infinite talent, the sky is the limit, he should be playing classic pieces like this, fuck that heavy metal shit, that is for people who can't play and let the elec guitar hide the flaws

[Bodie33]

umm dude he plays for soulfly..,.a metal band

[Detoxx23]

he also plays in Cavalera Conspiracy,,,\m/

[J1MMYF1TZ]

i also saw him ozzfest 01'

agree with everything you say

[libofsharaku]

@bubbasock who u talking to you retarded cunt? fucking jouvenile prick, faggot

[libofsharaku]

@bubbasock fat american cunt, watch your mouth before you come off your fat mouth, twat

[312chicagoadam]

Superb! This guy is unbelievable!! Not to mention that he's got one of the coolest gigs on the freakin' planet!

I read somewhere down below that Rizzo is a really nice guy....I'm so glad to hear that!

[Seph443]

My God...I think this guy has to be one of the most underrated guitarists on the planet... awesome...

[mcghee1992]

yeah its either him or brent hinds

[ANGEL95000]

people know him hes from mastodon

[guitarubik]

I like that rake strum technique Dire Strait's guitarist. who was it?

[sweeptapper]

mark knophler

[i8i7]

AWESOME!!

[glennslittlebitch]

the end is funny when he leaves the guitar, it looks like it was floating in place

[weluu55]

A TRUE GUITAR GOD!!!!! Marc Rizzo is one of the greatest

[VHrules78]

dude! i was there!

i met him...very nice guy

[666heavenshallburn]

i wish i can play like that but am just started playing kind a of music

[apolloCreed1309]

Shit!! hes in the Rizzone

[kurti535]

u r amzing, i really need this tabs ! ! !

[JoSieLove2Sing4u]

You are so good!! Yay! Wow!! *Smile*

[Dulcimerist]

I just saw this guy play a concert in Billings, Montana! He ROCKS!!!

[IPawnNoobs]

I believe hes underrated simply because hes in the wrong band. I mean you never hear him in SoulFly soloing. His talent is pretty much being wasted. I dont like Soulfly personally.

[lolwutno]

He has some nice solos on Dark Ages and Cavalera Conspiracy's Inflikted, he also records instrumental stuff for Shrapnel Records.

Honestly I prefer his metal playing and instrumental playing somewhat seperate, I'd rather he didn't just join a prog band and wank scales all day.

[AnotherHyde]

he should go w/ esp rather than peavey

[immortalsoloist]

this guy is so damn under rated man!!!

[Specnazbass]

Mark should make an album with vinnie moore.

That could be great!

[andantecantabile03]

i have to acept his skills with the acoustic guitar playing flamenco but we have to acept that Paco de Lucia is the best in the hole wolrd playing flamenco he is amazing

[Irongypsy69]

andantecantabile03:

Why do we have to accept that? Paco De Lucia

is a living legend, a Flamenco institution and a national hero in Spain, everybody who likes Flamenco knows that, but this video is not about Paco. Is this was an electric guitarist would anyone say, "he's good but Hendrix is the real master", only in Flamenco is there this permanent need to diminish everyone else

by bringing up Paco De Lucia.

[eclecto]

it's quite refreshing to hear new stuff from this guy...i mean, i never thought he was so talented when i heard ill nino or when he went to soulfy but a couple of years ago when he released its record he blew me away...too bad he's so underrated.

[bobbydee30g]

true but seeing the dude play live with those bands was something else. during the show at some parts he slows it down and show cases his skills though he didnt do it as much with Ill nino though.

[MrMaggot]

Pa, mas este gajo n devia tar a servir picanha no chimarrao juntamente com o resto dos brazucas ?

[Mangledcorpse]

this guy is definitely a ffuckin fresh new blood to the Metal scene , My actual fav guitar player .

[lactosabarata]

DAMN...........

[huraboma]

Marc Rizzo, da man!

[cky283]

he's playing the same show as me next saturday, thank god its not a competition

[ricaard]

I like him better here than on electric!

[wammydatrines]

yeah rizzo

[dealejandro]

wat store were you at

[MentalClarity]

then why doesnt he wear a cap in the Soulfly video "Prophecy"? o.0

[shwantz1]

He was born with a birth defect. He actually has a rectum on the top of his head. He wears the cap to hide it because sometimes it blows. He was teased alot so he became really good at guitar, overcompensation for the swirlys & head/ass jokes. He wears a baseball cap for this reason.

[MrMaggot]

lool

[muggins79]

Why does he always wear a baseball cap?

[NathanBaier007123]

and to think people were callin him shit on his *introspection of an introvert*

[jacobgun]

crazy ass flamenco, how is it that this guy plays in soulfly? And the lead man in soulfly is soo "Nu-Metal"that he only strings up 4 of the 6 strings on his guitar.

[y06hurt]

Cause Max uses his guitar as machine gun as he said...

[katedorrough]

I only dream of playing like that......He's out doing his own thang too boys and girls....he has his own album out now....check it! it's AMAZING *CAUTION* some of it is PRETTY HARD! *ROAR*

[saalfeldthegreat]

He's got the best tremelo of any guitarist ive ever seen damn.

[ricaard]

You've never seen Paco DeLucia. Or Juliam Bream, or Friggin Andres Segovia, for that matter.

[iadmike]

i saw this guy last night. i loved it when he did the spanish acoustic jazz stuff. i didn't like it so much when he played electric. his sound was really garbled. i don't know if it was his guitar or the sound system of the venue, but it was way too much bass in his electric guitar.

[sircoarz3]

Please go back to ILL Nino they need you real bad, thier music isnt the same since you left. Why all latino bands break up. I miss hard rock like Ill Nino. When you were the guitarist

[sxs2289]

He needs to GTFO of Soulfly.

[monkeyshines4T]

This guy aint no joke boys and girls!

[12AX7power]

He is wasting away in Soulfly, he is capable of so much more, endless talent and young

[J3ppoy]

this is fuckin awesome!

[audioslave8988]

which guitar center was this at?

[HolzKyle]

actually - it was cavalera's wife who pointed him out to him - max says it on the soulfly dvd

[killswitchl3itch]

max cavalera..singer of soulfly

[JeremyBlue]

calvera???

[yespleasevicar]

Calvera made such a fucking good choice

[albertmurga]

FUCKING AWESOME!!!
