    Probably one of the weirdest shredders out there. You guys think he puts too much effort into his weirdness/image than his playing? He may be weird as **** but **** can he play! Some of those cops are ****ing impossible. Yeah I guess it takes a hell lot of time to get into his music but later on it just grows on you. I really like his mellow/jazzy stuff like the stuff he did on his acoustic album (Colma) and Population Overdrive.

    DISCUSS!

    No way in hell you can describe this man....i mean thing's music! It ranges from beserk shred, to weird ass techno to cheesy hip hop. Each album of his has a little of each...but the songs that mainly revolve around his guitar playing are mind blowing. yes 90% of people do NOT get into his music upon the first listen. He released an "Internet only track" called Nottingham Lace and won a spot on many top 100 greatest guitar solo lists including one magazine...(forgot name). Try checking it out, Nottingham Lace is a song with no weird ass sampling, no turntables...no Bootsy Collins, just beautiful guitar playing. The solo is nice and long, though its repetitive, you'll keep rewinding it.

    People who want a great album to wake up to or simply to relax check out Colma, beautiful acousitc stuff.
