Does “complexity and speed” mean shred guitarists?

[–] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

No it means things faster than uptempo and non major minor tonality and non even rhythm.

Just so happens that shred has all those, and I make excuses for things like bach

So who’s your fav? I was a big fan of Satriani and Tony McAlpine 35 years ago.

Obviously Mike Lerner of Behold the Arctopus, hence having Skullgrid as my name. I wrote a LONG ASS post about my favourite shred guitarists that have excellent phrasing , where it's not just a zillion notes a second, but they still do play a zillion notes a second here :

I will post again in a few days with my favourite "fast as fuck" shredders that have no concept of phrasing for you.
