Are normal people impressed by shred guitar?
>>124117705yes, very much. but catchy songs stay in the mind longer.
absolute unit
>>124117705someone should give this man a ukulele and have him play it, that would look pretty funny
>>124117705In short clips, yes. Live with or next to someone who shreds, and regardless of how skilled they are, you'll want to blow your brains out.
>>124117705my mom likes john petrucci and joe satriani
>>124117705this is what normal people actually enjoyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voo02ulSuBA
>>124118280your mom sounds like a chud that's bad at sex
>>124118343no that's me. she is the normie.
I prefer a nice melody. Some fast stuff is okay. The guy from Journey does it well
Normal people pay closer attention to rhythm over melody so they prefer odd time signatures and polyrhythms over a nice neoclassical shredfest
>>124117705Yes.
>>124117705impressed? yes. would they listen to your recordings of it for longer then a couple minutes before forgetting about you? also yes
>>124117705In small doses. Create lush songs first, be cool or good looking, and occasionally shreddy "enough".This is the Way of Navarro.
>>124118651Correction: The Way of Page more like, where it really comes from.
Oh yeah, girls love some Yngwie
>>124117705Just play the first note of runaway
there was a time when normal people enjoyed shred while music snobs were the ones who scoffed at it
>>124118914Not shredding in the Yngwie sense. Never. EVH had a groove and a good frontman. Same with Page and many others. They were shredders who served the song, rather than the other way around and wanked all day.
>>124117705enough to get you laid, for sure
>>124117705for a minute or so, yeah, then they'll go back to preferring something they've already heard a million times before
>>124117705Has shredding peaked? Seems like after after the Animals as Leaders self-titled (a decade ago btw), regular guitar autists just can't keep up. Is it over?
>>124118992Blackmore was almost there already
