+1. I'd take him over Petrucci(and Sun Caged over DT) any day of the week.

I dunno, don't really care for shred for the sake of it. If the guy's in a killer band I'll think more of him as a player.

Nils Norberg is fucking killer, and is actually in a band I like(sans the newest one

).

Can someone put a link of Broderick up that is beyond Cooleys technique please?

As much as I love Cooley, I don't think he can pull that off.

Tony MacAlpine owns every body

I'm not sure if Rusty can do the string skipping lick at that speed either. The tapping one, well, I wouldn't be surprised.

Yeah, it's not a two hand thing, but I'm just guessing here.

On the other hand, I've never seen Broderick play this fast before. I haven't see him do anything on par with ~2:30 in that video in terms of sweeping either.

By the way, it isn't all picked, but he does do a pretty crazy string skipping thing in there.

Haven't seen the crazy 4nps sort of thing like this either:

Rusty probably cant play the second tapping video. But that isn't shred. There are tap guitarists that are far better than Broderick.

As for that string skipping lick, if you think Rusty couldn't play that you're insane.

Rusty has more speed than any of these other guys mentioned. And surely THAT is shred guitar?

I will ask Cooley to record some string skipping licks when he reviews my book.

This is insane.

And as for that Rusty 4nps lick he does, thats seriously fuckin hard. At his speed anyway

Straight out shredding has become pretty boring imo. I love shredding, but you have to be able to combine it with melody and dynamics. Jeff Loomis is the king of that in my opinion, his tone is also absolutely brilliant. Chris Broderick is very impressive, yes, but he kinda bores me. His technique and knowledge is absolutely brilliant, but Jeff Loomis' style blows him out of the water. But then again, that's my subjective opinion.

Jongpil Yun · 03-01-2008, 04:16 PM

Well, technique aside, like I said, in terms of musicality, Rusty Cooley's my favorite until shown otherwise.

Rusty Cooley and Chris Broderick, in my mind, draw up a comparison with Ashley MacIsaac and Mark O'Connor, respectively. Cooley's style is more out there and extreme, like MacIsaac's personality, Broderick is more restrained, and has a sweeter sound, like O'Connor.

(That may not have been entirely sensical, I know...)

I'm pretty sure they both have skills that the other can't do. When it comes to shredding, I like Broderick more as a musician and songwriter, but I still think Cooley is a little better at mindless "shredding."
