Matt Bellamy is one of the greatest musicians of modern times. He is highly adept at guitar, piano and singing, whilst writing his own music and lyrics. He has a classical background, and understands musical writing for pretty much a whole orchestra. He may not play much that is immensely difficult, although some of his piano playing is stunning, but he certainly knows how to make it sound awesome! And if it is great to listen and rock out to, that is surely all that matters. He is a master.
Lol sorry guy I dont get the sources of gig footage anymore that's why I cant make a new video but since 2008-09 he didn't really change his style of the solo! but still a masterpiece
Guys, stop trying to see any kind of evolution in Matt's guitar playing. He was born a guitar god. He's been shredding and killing it since his mother's utero!
Is it crazy that I JUST realized that I know like...every single concert that is played on this video? I was surprising myself the whole time. Like, "O hai Hullabaloo!" and then "O hai Atlanta where Matt broke his face!" then "O hai Wembley 07!"
@PicoRiveraCalifornia Yeah, I realized ten seconds after I posted that I'd screwed something up lol. And I wasn't watching that closely anyway, I was forced to clean my house that day...^^
@Brandon18valensi 1: John frusciante 2:tom morello 3: matt comon man john mayer is good but he isn't like a guitar god, more a songwritergod or something haha:)
Jealousy. I think the video is respecting the fact, and the comments are hating the fact that Matt can play this solo 50 times and you'll hear 51 different versions of it. Each individual New Born solo FTW, not one is any better than any of the others! They're all special in their own little ways! Don't think Matt practises them for hours either, like you and I would... he just plays whatever he feels on the day. RESPECT ^_^
this korg assencion into electronic musicianship is just a waste of time, korg pad, what guitar, what korg pad, what effect.. what bellamy plays(i didnt know of him until today).. the new synth guitar. music is always evolving and you shouldnt waste your time here reading how you will buy something and be a better musician. spend it with family produce music for yourself, not everyone. nobody has "THE SOUND". we are all just human.
radiohead are out of the box, radiohead test themselves as musicians. kid a is something bellamy can only dream of writing. as massive a muse fan as i am, one who's followed them since showbiz they no longer test themselves. too content writing wanky ballards and chasing the yanky dollar.
@dickmint66 i totally agree, and yeah so what its been 2 months since u commented but i hate people stickin in for radiohead saying muse cant and will never live up to radiohead......thats a good thing. i think by far Muse surpass radiohead (MAYBE cuz theyre almost different kinds of music!?) but also cuz Radiohead have always had almost a basic sound to them, yeah they made amazing music but Muse are so bold and the fact that matt alone writes amazing beautifully music himselfs seals the deal
@Toxxiee That was the worst fucking shit I've ever heard a guitar player play. The only reason I watched this video was because somebody said the highest rated comment on this video is hilarious.
@jschwind435 If you think you can do better feel free to make a video besting 'that fucking shit' through your own surely amazing guitar skills. Otherwise stfu.
@Nukozade I think even he knows that's great of a guitar player compared to some. And also, I don't have a digitech whammy pedal to provide you with the extra guitar wankage that you apparently enjoy.
His solos are kinda lame, in 7 years he was barley able to add tapping to it, after 7 years that solo shud b a masterpeice but its not. Who said he was better than Kirk Hammett from Metallica?
Here are just a few that (tho they have different styles) have WAY more skill: Yngwie Malmsteen, Michael Angelo Batio, Hendrix, Jeff Hanneman, Eric Clapton, Chuck Berry, B.B. King, Steve Vai, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Doug Aldrich, Zakk Wylde, hell I'd even say Daron Malakian is at Bellamy' level of skill maybe even better in terms of mixing melodic and slightly heavier riffs together in such a profound and crazy sort of way. It doesn't really matter it's just an opinion, plus MUSE are awesome live.
and also the evolution of Matt's hair
