Chuck Shuldiner. Sadly, he passed away not so long back.

Ya  It was a brain tumor. He had it removed and he couldn't play guitar anymore. I think losing the ability to play killed him. |

Yeah, I can't even imagine what it would be like never to be able to play again. It must have been an immeasurably infinite feeling of dread for someone as talented and influential as Chuck.

Thank goodness. I feel a little better now. I get this mental picture of his nephew saying," Damn it! Thats enough of your shit, Bitch. I'm keeping this one!".
Not sure why but I get this feeling that maybe his sister is one of these people that never liked him or what he did but seen an oppertunity to take control of him and his wealth. You know, the hateful perfect brother or sister that always condemns you, but then suddenly wants to be your bodyguard when your down? I may way be far wrong here, so feel free to correct me if anyone knows the truth. If it was him who was doing the selling then I don't believe I would feel this way. At least wait until he was gone already, because I'm sure that his near end was no surprize.

Thanks for that site, brow. I nearly cried looking through it all, but I'm a hardass metal fiend so that could never happen... I'm still sad about it. Just like Layne Staley from Alice In Chains, I know this is a metal forum, but I lost something the day I know he died. What a great musician, just think of what he could have have done if he got a little into death metal? Only his voice, thats all it took, and bam... panties were wet everywhere.

I like pretty much all metal EXCEPT nu metal and some core genres. I like 80s metal a lot but I also like Death Metal a lot too.
What happened to the best metal guitarist forum?!

deleting all that was complete bullshit. its not like it didnt take time to try to prove points and type all that stuff. You can't just hide from guys like nothingface and delete his posts. All those people raving about how greeeaaattt it is that you cleaned it up should have their posts about that deleted too right??? I mean those didnt have to do anything with best guitarists right??? Wait a sec you should probably delete this post right now too...

I think your right about everything you just posted. That was one hell of a bitch slapping and it took time for us to write. I think that the point was made even though it will never be viewed again.
Back to the Guitar Gods, can anyone tell me who Gary Moore is? I really don't know who he is and, no, I'm not trying to get shit started again. I just want to know who he is.

no idea who gary moore is but i think my mind has changed on my favorite guitarist. I'd say Andreas Kisser, not because he's the most talented but because he comes up with mostly original stuff. not like some of these new metal guitarists using riffs from past bands.

Thanks for that site. I have made up my own mind and it looks as if his stuff is rock/blues/folk/fussion music. It doesn't seem he is very metal at all, but NothingHead, if thats your vote then OK. But try thinking of a guitarist a little, well a lot, heavier, because this Gary seems to be some distant relative to metal music.

If a guitarist has good style and you like him, and he has memorable songs and riffs than it doesnt matter what genre, or band he's in right??? I dont hear a guitarist and be like wow that solo was awesome but hes a blues guitarist so i cant like him DAMN. Cmon guys it doesnt matter what genre if you like them it doesnt matter.

ive never heard any metal musician say they play rock...As soon as rob halford launched judas priest's first album they recognized it as metal not as rock...if i can recall i dont think i could name any metal band after 1979 that has rock artists as their influences...besides arch enemy, (angela's favorite album is "Kiss - Lick it up" but Kiss has also been concidered one of the Masters of Heavy Metal and just to stay on topic, if u consider Kiss, metal, then ace frehley is definately a Divine superior

So true! I like blues guitarist ( well, I like anything with guitars for that matter ), but I would never for a second confuse SRV as a metal player. I think that insults both genre to some degree. Gary is maybe a great guitarist, but I don't think he is anywhere near a metal enough to be seriously posted here.

I'm not cold against Gary Moore - he is actually a good guitarist - but he shouldn't be considered in this thread.
Transient: I got my posts deleted too (as did NothingWhatsHisFace), but they were offensive to another user and off topic so I have no complaints.
