Have you ever wanted a band that would right songs based off of the original MegaMan games? Well, now there is one. These guys style is kind fo hard to explain, it's really a combination of a lot of different things. It's definately worth a listen. You can listen to three songs on their site.

Dragonforce (The band) stole their name from my 2nd favourite game ever.

At least they're a good band and they have one of the best guitarists around.

Dragonforce were horrible.
The sound was fucked up, and he sounded so hillarious.
Plus no trampoline.

Although Herman Li has nothing on Michael Romeo from Symphony X. He is definately the best current guitarist. He completely blows Petrucci out of the water.

But he's dead, so there fore he can't be the best guitarist currently. That's really the problem with guitar though, no matter how good someone is they will always be considered second to people like Hendrix, Page, SRV, Beck, and Clapton, because these are the people that made the biggest innovations. The only way to distinguish yourself now is to play faster than anyone else.

A shredder who actually knew what he was doing.
He will cause big innovations in time to come, and has inspired alot of bands.
And EH.
