Best metal/shred books & videos?
Since this seems to be a community of people that have a pretty good idea on what goes into learning to play on a technical level, I thought I would ask you guys if there are any books or videos you would recommend for building technique for lead playing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks guys.
I ordered the Stetina book from Amazon, and I'll be keeping an eye out for that other stuff. |

You won't regret it. That one's the kind of book that you'll probably refer back to for years to come.
