More Radical Guitar Solos, Please
The modern pop music establishment needs to tighten up and provide more radical guitar solos for our listening enjoyment. I'm sick of turning on the radio and hearing lame-o wussified tunes with no heart.
I want to hear more shredding that sounds like the following:
guts pouring out of skeletons' mouths
demons tap-dancing on the damned with golf spikes
hurricanes ripping through purgatory
a wolverine fighting with a dozen jackals
biohazardous materials catching fire during an earthquake
ninjas clashing on mountaintops
tea curtling because you put in milk and lemon
Yngwie Malmsteen, world-famous shredder, demonstrates the kind of thing I'm after in the following video. Get to it, John Mayer. You can play like Stevie Ray Vaughan and I know it, so tighten!
It's true, why is John Mayer so lame? I feel like he's all about being a pop star and not an awesome guitar idol, which suits him better because he's just a little too weird and unsuccessful to be anything else.
