[Tylerz909]

[GoodMetalFTW]

unearth - my will be done

escape the fate - this war is ours intro (even though the band kind of sucks)

paul gilbert - get out of my yard

buckethead - soothsayer (near the ending he does some killer sweeps)

jason becker - any sweeping by jason becker

rusty cooley - any sweeping by rusty cooley

just some suggestions.

[drawnacrol]

Awesome video

[donnaldinho]

hav u heard the sweep picking of Kingdom to share by Hibria?? its awesome..ita like at the 1:30 or 2:00 of the song

[CTUKeyes]

I like your number one pick. great sweeps. I would have liked to see this godless endeavour on the list though. great solo ending with 30 seconds of beautiful sweeps

[austinzepeda]

Dude go listen to "my will be done" by unearth. That is the worlds best guitar sweep. At the very beginning of the song.

[cianthre]

PtH and BtBaM, instant Win

[gwath42]

I like #5 Mirror State - Adagio best because its bass guitar :P

Awesome list.

[meowbark123]

I'd probably say the Selkies sweeps are my favorite.

And as far as the Glass Prison, it just seems like he's sweep picking because John Petrucci is so ridiculously fast it's just not fair.

Human hands are not meant to move that fast

[Dwane5335]

suprised you didnt put Nocturne Steady on here

[ponyguitar11]

Necrophagist

[Carlito148]

PROTEST THE HERO BABY!!!!!

definately one of the best

[laxplayer72]

another good one is This War Is Ours The Guillotine II by Escape the Fate

[smacksomehoes]

I was getting ready to say "NO SELKIES!?"

But, there it be :)

[staticxfrk]

glass prison is alt picking not sweep picking but it is arpeggios

[rhcpjohn444]

woah I ALMOST FORGOT check out serrana by jason becker definatly the most intricate sweeping and patterns ive seen

[rhcpjohn444]

dude demon driver solo by mamsteen, alaska intro sweeping by btbam

[blahkaw98]

No Nevermore?

[staticxfrk]

the part where petrucci does the arpeggio bit as above inst acctually swept he does alt picking for it...

[canman87]

Haha, I was totally thinking of The Glass Prison as number one myself. Well done.

[stevebedford1]

[zebaxtiantd]

[warlock034]

I always recognized that necrophagist song by that sweeping, very good choice of song.

[Cyberactive]
