How the fuck can you put curt cobain in the same thread as mozart. On that note, how can you put metal guitarists in a thread with classical pianists? Oh well why not chuck in some violinists as well? Mendelsson, tchaikovsky

The Kurt Nobrain comment is understood but as for metal guitarists and classical pianists. . . metal is very classically rooted. . . they aren't all that different. One just has a lot more distortion. . . Honestly though they are close I keed you not.

Angus is not a singer. He's the school guy from AC/DC and he plays his solos well(not like a super shredder, but whatever).
And BTW heres some dudes that I forgot:
Mick Thomson
Alexi Laiho
Kirk Hammett
Zakk Wylde
Dimebag(R.I.P)
I'm sure that i forgot some guys, but nobody's perfect. |

Well, no offence, but who's the better one; Kirk Hammett or James Hetfield? |

They both blow but Hetfield has the edge over Hammet. Who writes the majority of Metallica's material? Hetfield also does the dual chore of vocals and guitar which is no easy task. Hammet has played the same variation of one lead for the past 15 years now. He drowns leads in wah in hope that you think he is doing something unique and fresh. Hammet is very overrated |

Musician? Or guitar masturbator? There's a big difference. Some people can kick everyone's ass at shredding but they can't write a good song.
As far as musicmanship goes, I'd say the guys from Opeth, even though I really don't like the band. It's like... they can wank on their instruments whenever they want to, but they don't, and their music still sounds very complex.
Edit: Oh yeah, Trey Azagthoth also writes really nice material, with very subtle melodies and shit.

Marcel Coenen IMO. His shredding actually has structure, And he does that when he needs to balance out his slow, Calculated melodies.

metal music was spawned from classical music unless its hair metal. violinists were the first shredders. and classical composers like mozart that broke all the rules, were the perfect example of what metal is. thats the worst thing about nu-metal bands. they dont know their roots.

Got to agree with you there, i adore Opeth, to me they've produced the most powerful music i've heard.... anything that can bring a tear to my eye gets the 'sqol seal of approval'  |

I agree too, i especially like opeths early stuff, their acoustic and electric songwriting is amazing. Im not too fond of their new metal but the soft stuff from damnation is cool.
I think my favourite musician of all time is Dave Gilmour from Pink Floyd. Might not be metal but their music had so much feeling. |

For an all around musician, Les Paul isn't too bad. There's a lot of good people mentioned and I agree that Cobain wasn't all that. Shoot. I even dressed grunge before he did. Anyone not into disco in the 70's did.
