No Slayer, Judas Priest, or Motor head? Blasphemy.

JawnDiablo - 1-22-2007 at 01:35 PM

James Murphy, who was a session musician for Death, Obituary, Disincarnate, Cancer and a whole slew of other similar bands back in the 90s is without a doubt my favorite metal guitar soloist
alex skolnik of testament also'
Testament The ballad should be in there

moron - 1-22-2007 at 02:50 PM

Im probably the only person on this board who loves Pearl Jam. I think that solo in Alive is excellent! haha

With that said... I dont care for Eruption.
