wow, now you're just being a jerk. they aren't high school drop-outs, and they are worshiped by many. Just search John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy, Jordan Ruddess, and Tony Levin. They have record contracts, and definately have more skill than 99.999999999999% of the population. Random shredding obviously isn't what they're doing, your brain just can't comprehend that many notes. There are obvious patterns in the music that you just can't seem to find, and as a result condescend it because it makes you feel better. Good job Winky Winky.

They have more skill than Bob Dylan, the Stones, Hendrix, Thin Lizzy, Led Zeppelin, Randy Rhoads and Deep Purple?

just because they play a different genre and sound different than what you like doesn't mean they suck. They play live shows, so who cares if their album version has computer EQ's on it? why compare them to those you mentioned? If you live life comparing everything then you will never really get the full value out of it. Most prejudice starts with comparisons.

I wouldn't turn into a hypocrite if I were you. You tell me that I compared them to people with real skill that play enjoyable music, yet you say "OMG THEY THE BEST EVER MADE SO GTFO". It's shitty music, and when someone needs sound effects to sound remotely talented with both their $20 guitars and their songwriting, they fail massively.

Hypocrite? Who said they are the best ever? I said I like them.

I just posted this to show you guys some music I like. If you want to come here and tell me "they fail massively" then you are just being a jerk. I like the music, if you don't then don't listen to it, simple as that. I don't know what your point is, I made this thread to show a song that I enjoy, not to start an argument with someone who thinks if you use sound effects it automatically makes it shitty music. The end, goodbye. Please don't post another response because I won't reply to it, and there is really no sense in it anyways.

"They are better than 99.9999999999% of the population" and you totally didn't edit that out...

There are so many better musicians, so that's 100% Grade F Bullshit.
