Top 10 Best Guitar Solos In Modern Metal
Should be number 1
Love them or hate them, you have to admit that DragonForce and Hermann Li know their way around a guitar. The fact that it is Power Metal naturally lends itself to a bit of grandiose wankery when it comes to playing and style, but that shouldn't mean we don't acknowledge them. Everyone knows the overly paced ridiculousness of Through the Fire and the Flames, but, unless you listen to these guys religiously, every song is the same. Die by the Sword fits the mould perfectly for DragonForce, but the solo is something else. You only need to hear the first ten seconds to be sold. Trust me on this, you're going to want to give Mr. Li a chance after this one.
Amazing solo, David Davidson is one of the best guitarists in modern metal. Really surprised by a lot of the bands missing from this list. You guys should check out a lot of bands like Mastodon, Vektor and ofc, Revocation, if you want some great solos.
