A lot of metal artists have a classical background. If you really want to hear some wild stuff, try Judas Priest. They have two guitarists, K.K. Downing and Glen Tipton. One is trained in Classical and the other in Blues.
Not the right time to talk about stuff like that. Been drinking for a few hours and my mind is on ‘metal’ itself, not background.
But I know exactly what you mean.
JP is playing in Tampa Nov 30th. Can’t wait to see them...it’ll be the fifth time I’ve seen them in concert. K.K. decided to retire from the band just prior to starting this tour though.
