Why the 1980s killed the guitar solo

[Nitefly]

I guarantee your face will look like a bulldog chewing a wasp.

I'm surprised that music wasn't banned completely after that.

 

[semi-pro waster]

That's really quite jaw droppingly amazing - it's as if they condensed almost everything wrong with the 80s* into that video. It's horrendous yet brilliant and the reasons for each are exactly the same.

*didn't see Tom Cruise or shoulder pads in there so it isn't complete.

I...I just can't...words...I have none...

I hate Michael Angelo Batio.

 

[G-MAN2004]

That was awesome.

 

[jonislost]

That was radical! Quad guitar (Y)

 

[randal]

At least we know where DragonForce took a lot of their inspiration from...

 

[Hellsmk2]

My face was exactly as you predicted. Wow!

 

[Jonesiani]

I feel ill

 

[gillywibble]

Haha, fantastically bad

 

[Grandmaster Fap!]

Haha that was awesome +1 and exactly why metal will never die....it's ******* unbelievable!

 

[SkeeterUK]

Haha so bad but so funny i like it.

 

[Firestar_3x]

was watching this video several months back, i love 80's rock / metal / cheese, funny and great video all at the same time

That was hilarious! I am so glad I am just a bit too young to have listened to this at the time. God bless being born in 1986 and not having fused memories till long past this point!

Nice. Just half way through I thought to myself, "wheres the dual guitar solo" and then the OTT quadguitar game out... perfect.

 

[Gilly]

Sounds just like most metal.

 

[Vonhelmet]

I hate Michael Angelo Batio.

Wikipedia says he taught Tom Morello, so he can't be all bad...

That video was though. I had to force myself to sit through all of it. I need a shower.

 

[JRS]

That is an utterly awesome video.

 

[skinnyl]

..Oh dear.. the single worst part is his chuffing hair!
