Meh. I don't know or don't know the work of many of these guys. At least off-hand. In my personal estimation, it will always be Michael Amott of Arch Enemy. I heard they spent solid months writing and rehearsing their new album. Oh, yes yes yes.

And before all you playa-haters get dismissive, go download and listen to the track 'Angelclaw'. Nothing else made me pick up the guitar. Nothing at all. The absolute nakedness with which that song turns utter joy into music and vice-versa still makes me a little choked up sometimes.

Keep your darn jazz.

Arch Enemy sounds familiar. I think I may have an Iron Maiden tribute album with a track by them on it. I'll have to go back and listen to it more closely.

Kid Modernist:

--- Quote from: Storm Rider ---
Don't get me wrong. I like Cream, and to a lesser extent his solo work, but I don't think that the whole 'Clapton is God' faction has any merit whatsoever. There is nothing Clapton did that contemporary guitarists didn't do better. He's good, but not worth the OMGWTFBESTGUITARISTEVER hype.

Heh, it's cool. I have just been doing too much debating in other threads so I felt like goofing off for this one. I think to best appreciate why Eric Clapton is guitar god (Pete Townsend is my guitar rock idol, but I can't claim he is the best, just my favorite) you have to see some footage of him playing live. It blows my mind.

Signum_Tenebrae:
nobody on this list.

I'm sort of torn between Page and Hendrix...
