As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

Eh.   Your typical bread and butter speed metal;   really simple stuff played really fast.  Overall, I feel that it didn't have anything going for it but the tempo.    6/10; listenable but not favored.


This sort of thing is best left to Yngwie Malmsteen, who can play really fast; but it's also far more intricate and well composed than your typical Dragonforce type stuff.   There's a reason the whole neoclassical metal movement in the 80s is essentially credited to him.  

I just happened to have this uploaded!  Not his best, of course, but it's handy and I think you might enjoy it.   Plus it's pretty DF-ish. http://zero.mysidia.org/music/05%20Attack!!.mp3

7/10 Not His best, but not that bad. You've inspired my to find my Trial by Fire Dvd, though.

Note: So-so video, great song.

Ha.  Ha.  Ha. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rutyA12z3Ok


NOTE:  The song isn't really all that great, but he blows skill and speed freaks out of the water.  Oddly enough, that section where he plays riffs from other artists is where I first heard the Crazy Train riff, which has since become one of my favorites.

Here's my real contender (okay, so I cheated a bit.  Sue me): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srPKqAt1UQI


As for the song of the previous post, I'd have to say 5/10.  -3 for the video, +1 for the moustache, +1 for the girl, and +1 for the bad guy's jacket.  It had some good spots in it, but not enough to override the overall buzzing-ness and repetitive quality.  Just not my taste.
