Honestly I am sick of newer music. I have been out of things for a while. I have gotten married, started a career, did the corporate management thing and had 2 kids, and started my own biz in the last few years. So I lost track of the more cuting edge stuff. Only listened to stuff on the radio and the occasional new CD. I have to say that there is quite a bit of crap out there. I have taken people's advice and gotten some Children of Boddom and Opeth. I have to say I wasn't really impressed. What ever happened to real guitarist with technical skill?? I know these guys can play, they just aren't on the same level as some of the older stuff, Bands like Deicide, Morbid Angel, Testament, COC, Anthrax, Old Metallica, Megadeth, and even some of the old Hair Band stuff. Those guys could play guitar. They were masters of the solo. A solo is more than just knowing theory and playing as fast as you can (Malmstein). It's about playing a instrumental verse in the song. It compliments the music. It's not supposed to be a finger exercise. I know I am pissing quite a few people off, but I have a feeling that all the pissed off people are under the age of 28. If you guys think these new bands are good, do yourself a favor and go to a local used CD shop and pick up ANYTHING from 1985 to 1992. After that Grunge played the roll of punk in the 70's and killed off metal for a while. Even the worst guitarist knew his stuff. Music was more fun back then. Why else would all of these older bands be coming out of the woodwork the last few years and drawing crowds as big as the ones they did when they were releasing new albums. I know I need to open up more and not be biased but seriously...good music is good music.

i'm 22 and i have every Deicide, Testament & Morbid Angel CD - I've also seen all 3 of them live.

And i must say... if you're into death metal (a la deicide, morbid angel)
