@rdhellraiserr All he's really doing is playing simple scales really fast...Anyone who's been playing for two years or so can do that. Go watch some John Petrucci videos. That should clear things up.
This guy is by far the nost boring and generic guitarist I have ever heard. Yes, he can play fast, but he is not creative, one bit. Yes. All the best guitarists fed off of the penatonic scale, but they used it in a way that was creative and wasn't just a bunch of fast shreds that are the same patterns over and over again. A snotty little punk teen living in a dirty neighborhood who just learned a couple power could probably put more soul into their music then this guy. zakk makes me hate music.
@MoreParksLessParking Right on the money. Most of Zakk's contemporaries can outplay him. Petrucci, Vai, Satch, Yngwie, Michael Romeo (and a bunch others I'm forgetting) are on a different level. Zakk "shreds" like a kid in a guitar store. No musicality, no actual technique, just speed. Not to mention, he completely ignores the jazz backing in this video. Yngwie does that, too, but he's on a whole other plane of skill and can make it sound good.
@zakksucksdick I'm wondering, did you create your account to hate on Zakk Wylde? Lol I don't like him much either, but no need to post unintelligent insults over the internet.
@zakksucksdick 143 South Mesa Avenue Montrose Colorado.....Michael Dozier......you have my real address and real name and real pic you fucking pussy......come get some.....see what a combat vet can do.......i assure you that you won't talk that shit in person....we opened the show for zakk last weekend...still pumped....please let me kick your ass.....i'll even buy you a non refundable round trip plane ticket....pussy.....post your real name and real pic and real address.....
@zakksucksdick And it's clear as day you are a real PUSSY......you obviously aren't going to post your info cuz you know you will get beat to shit....pussy ass keyboard warrior......i'm done now
all you assholes talking about "too much pentatonics" go record one song half as good as anything zakk has recorded and then talk....bloody idiots talking as if they are authorities on something....
He made his living on pentatonics people... so did Hendrix, so did Clapton, so did Page, so did Gilmour, so did Iommi and so on. Ready to shut the hell up with your omniscient scale rants and compare careers with those guys? I sure as hell didn't think so.
@hownowicecow282 he's a southern rock influenced player. Bassically a blues player playing metal music. He doesn't play pentatonic any more than Clapton, Iommi or Page. Seriously, people act like pentatonic is the worst thing in the world.
whats happened to him...? i used to idolize zakk so much. I can't beleive how sensless his shredding is these days. I mean it has direction, method and structure... to an extent, however he has lost something. watch anything back 10 years and its so different. I know this is most likely improv, and he's just smashing out some fast shit etc, etc, but most who have listened to him for a while will say the same. Respect though, Zakk, your still the boss
@hmcg020 Zakk was one of my biggest heroes when I first picked up the guitar some 20 years ago, but I agree with you. Not only do his solos lack strong composition these days, but his picking has gone to hell as well. Notice how back in the old days he most always picked from the wrist. Now it's all from the elbow. I don't know if he developed wrist problems, or if he just let his technique go to hell from too much beer and lack of dedicated practice.
@Cigmcpuffy Well if i can tell you something...I know what you mean about the elbow but it's just a different way to play it's more funny to him maybe...it is surely wrong but as long as he has fun and the notes comes out clean as he wants, we shouldn't worry :D
@hmcg020 he has gotten used to the same patterns he does. (pentatonic lick, high bend, pinch harmonic, repeat...) he still is the boss tho like you said :)
I know Zakk Wylde gets a load of shit for "lack of feeling", "over using pinch harmonics", "only knowing one scale" (which I don't think is true...) etc.
But I'd give my left leg and a kidney to play like him, he really is that good.
Sure I'd have difficulty walking, and couldn't drink, but I could play guitar like a god and still have one good leg to work the pedals =D
LOL @ Zakk, dude please learn to play stuff other than your traditional annoying and repetitive scale playing style! Zakk is truly the King of the Pinch Harmonics! LOL! Zakk Wylde = boring solos, heard-em already solos, please remove those stinky cuffs!!!!!
@derico12345 I cant understand why ppl dont read some facts before they come to tell their feelings about this guy.. Go and get some facts about this guy.:) U'll see he can play almost everything u can imagine.:)
@derico12345 Listen you loser, either upload a video of you beating him in guitar or shut the fuck up you bloody troll! Don't you have anything better to do than being an asshole? Seriously dude get a freaking life!
Ascolta vincenzo195555...nessuno ti ha chiesto di commentare quindi puoi anche andartene; perchè solo un'ignorante potrebbe dire che questa non è musica..e se anche non ti dovesse piacere sii cortese...ciao
Anyone that says this guys sucks... can come suck my dick! Cause u wish u could play guitar like that...
