nope rich is the best.... kick ass riffs+ solos.


everyone else just decent at solos and suck at riffs rich is great at both.

put it this way dimebag/rich ward are about only guitarist riffs who make me want to start a mosh pit/headbang.

a few other bands have some good riffs, but still aint close to dimebag/rich though.


they have something called groove people lack.

Boring.

im glad you are.


youtube . com/watch?v=K5Z-_SUxpuA

that's what im talking about the break down at like^ 1:30

Pantera - Primal Concrete Sledge (Seoul, Korea 2001)


http://youtube.com/watch?v=D4TH3BN0jZc

fuckin crazy^ breakdown so ^ heavy. Pantera - I'll Cast A Shadow


that's how metal should be kick ass shit like that.


im feel bad for people who never got to see pantera in concert.

a technical riff means nothing if it doesnt groove or sound heavy or powerful.

that's why necrophagist fails riffs are technical but so fuckin weak sounding

http://youtube.com/watch?v=K5Z-_SUxpuA

^ metal riffs should groove like that at 1:30

NOBODY PERIOD

^ has the power of the riffing dimebag does at 3:30

http://youtube.com/watch?v=D4TH3BN0jZc

Pantera - I'll Cast A Shadow ^ now that's a fuckin heavy riff and how metal should be.


who gives a fuck if a riffs more technical, if the shit sounds like fuckin ass and weak?

Necrophagist - Extreme Unction

^ lol listen how necrophagist sounds compared to pantera.


the riffing sounds pathetic so fuckin weak and unmoving.


paul gilbert has one groove kinda riff dead mans shoes.

Stuck mojo is shit compared to:






MOJO JOJO !!!!

dimebag's i'll cast a shadow riff is actually harder to dupilcate than necrophagist song riff i linked.

pantera was best live band ever because dimebag's riffs were the fuckin shit and solos sounded fuckin heavy as hell especially live in concert crushing shit and phil anselmo was the best frontman ever crazy bastard plus he could sing deathmetal growl better than muhammed and scream like rob halford higher actually.


then stuck mojo with bonz was second best because bonz's rap just fuckin went together with rich's riff and bonz had hit stage presense and ward's riffs crushed/sound heavy as fuck live plus rich would sing and deathmetal growl

Morbid Angel w/Phil Anselmo-Day of Suffering ^


phil singing for deathmetal band that owns necrophagist

phil actually growled best ive ever heard on korea concert pantera videos.

in morbid angel he sounded weak compared to growls he was doing on pantera concert video .

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ahrpT48ptZI

^ phil's voice is crazy at 54 seconds Pantera - A New Level (Live)

he can growl better than even that, would have to go through fuckin shit to find deepest oww yea he's nuts on suicide note part 2.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=gOplqyrgB_A

^ phil is crazy^ at ending. pantera / suicide note pt 2 (live in korea)


lol nobody mess with phil on herion.

how about this?

dimebag darrell

rocky george

paul gilbert

chuck schuldiner

rich ward

a few others but i cant think of them are the shit

rich is probley best soloist of them all though he uses chromatics less than anyone.

rocky george is the fuckin shit though his playing has fuckin loads of heart/soul man, this songs fuckin outro solo is amazing if it sucks the volume on the track starts getting low while he's still soloing but its amazing.

suicidal tendencies the feelins back 1988 ^


outro solo=one of the best ever listen closly turn up speakers that shit is fuckin heartfelt.



there is no best guitarist all good, but there is a fuckin list of the best guitarist

ok. 6 or 7 posts in a row. I think we've exhausted the Rich Ward thread.

You've said your peace...you've attempted to make your argument. There's really no more debating this subject. It's time to move on to new topics other than Rich Ward or Dimebag. This is...a Paul Gilbert/Racer X board...so one would expect the topics to slant in their direction...that's why people come here.
