The New Guys

Post by DethCrew30 »

Good guitar playing was dead for awhile but what do u guys think of some of the new guys like Alexi Laiho, Gus G, or even dudes like mark morton and willie adler from Lamb of God. Share anybody else who you think is really keeping guitar playing alive and what you think.

He's not in the genre most of UR's membership likes, but Brad Paisley's done wonders for making guitar cool in the mainstream.

In similar genres to what you describe I think John 5 has taken the electric guitar in a very new direction. His playing is eccentric, cheeky, intelligent and has serious balls too! He also is very versatile.

The best stuff in my opinion, is mainly non mainstream stuff. Step outside the popular world of music (in all genres) and you find that now is actually the greatest time for music!
