That's nuts, especially the acoustic stuff.
I believe that over a certain speed you can't really hear the notes and it becomes useless and maybe ridiculous sometimes. But I think this guy is the fastest I've ever heard
your right - tbh, I’ve only seen a little of his work on YouTube just now, and yes; he’s simply a technician in the same vein, probably the “fastest nu metal” guitarist of the moment, without a doubt incredibly talented and fast but I didn’t hear anything musical as you noted ....Another guy that I think fits that mold, who is INCREDIBLY FUCKING FAST, is Jason Richardson. But to my ears, his music literally sucks.
Absolutely!! I learned some of his Caprice in A Minor, and you can HEAR the musicality, instantly! And I think another aspect of these types of comparisons, is that a lot of really good players, simply cannot recognize truly great composition. They tend to equate shredding with musical genius, and nothing could be further from the truth. I guess that's why bands like AC/DC and ABBA have far more fans than MAB, or Dream Theater, lol. (Not knocking a great pop song by the way; S.O.S. is one of my favorites, but I digress...)use Paganini as a single example
I'd like to know what you consider clean...Actual performance isn't as clean as this video, though. The "tab track" makes it sound quite a bit cleaner.
