It really shocked me just to hear of the fans' response to 'St. Anger' not having guitar solos.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Guitar solos, to me, should be a really articulate way to make fun of guitar solos.
In the '90s, guitar solos were dead.
Guitar solos bore the hell out of me. Only a few guitarists interest me, and it's not about the solos they play, it's about the grooves they create.
There's something about the rawness of the live thing, there's no rhythm guitars behind the solo, nothing other than what you hear the people playing at that moment. It's exciting, it's about the performance.
And I've also come to the conclusion that, as far as guitar solos and things like that are concerned, it's more important to complement the music rather than take away from it.
Any guitar solo should reflect the music that it's soloing over and not just be existing in its own sort of little world.
I don't like guitar solos that are like, 'Look at me, look at me!' I like guitar solos that are little songs within the songs.
Personally, I can't see how anyone can produce any beautiful music out of being angry.
My dad is a huge rock and roll lead guitar fan. I didn't even really know that until recently. Everything has to have a guitar solo in it.
Generally my songs are just some riffs slung together as an excuse for a guitar solo.
