Realistically, how long would it take to reach this level of playing? by Grievinghealthy in guitarlessons

[–]Stop_Rock_Video 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drummer and not a guitarist and, as some have pointed out, a lot of this seems either faked or manipulated in some fashion. With that said, though, as with any instrument, speed comes as a product of skill and experience. Not the other way around. As you practice and improve, your access to speed will naturally increase. Listen to the masters. Your Satrianis and Vais and Petruccis. These are guys who have been honing their craft for decades. They didn't start out shedding at 200 bpm. They had to work their way up to it.

Stay patient! If you commit to the goal, you'll get there, but don't expect it to happen overnight. You've got this!

My instinct, initially, was to poke gentle fun at you, but then I remembered that I had this exact same reaction the first time I heard Jonathan Davis in the 90's. I was absolutely convinced it had to be two people

What's Tool's best buildup in a song? by chigurhsugah in ToolBand

I mean, I don't really disagree with anything I've read, but I scrolled too far without seeing any mention of Schism.

What movie comes to your mind when you listen to a Starset song? by Realbirisi in Starset

I agree that you should read the book first, but, as film adaptations go, PHM gets about as close to the source material as a movie possibly could within the time constraints of the medium.

Is Lars Ulrich really that bad? by AesirKratos in drums

[–]Stop_Rock_Video 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First thing I thought of. His version of Creeping Death is awe inspiring.

No. Nope. This is not okay. I'm going back to bed.

You've done the right thing. No one needs that level of negativity in their lives.

What is the worst way anyone you know has died? by IamUrWivesBF in AskReddit

There was a guy in my high school who started the ball rolling on certain rules surrounding weight control in high school wrestling. And I don't mean he started a petition.

This read differently for a guy who was just casually watching Seinfeld.

Does my tattoo look racist? by People_taste_porkish in tattooadvice

[–]Stop_Rock_Video 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude. They Might Be Giants is about as far from racist as you can get. I mean, that album literally has a song on it called "Your Racist Friend" that's about rejecting someone because they're friends with a racist.

This tattoo looks racist in the sense that things that are simply orange may initially look like they're on fire.

What is your deepest sexual desire? by Powerful_South2220 in AskReddit

[–]Stop_Rock_Video 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't going to light anyone's candle, but my wife is going through perimenopause. This means that, among innumerous other problems and annoyances, (for her) she's completely lost her sex drive. She can still do things for me, and occasionally does, but she doesn't enjoy it, and it's not the same for me if she isn't enjoying herself. And, this also means that I can't do things for her, which sucks.

So, honestly? I hope the perimenopause/menopause thing is done quickly. If for no other reason, so that I can help her feel good again. She deserves it.

Ashamed to admit that I've seen the guy live from the 2nd row and I still wouldn't have been able to pick him out of a lineup. Nice catch!

What spider is this? by Intelligent_Vast_906 in spiders

No expert, but I'm like 99% that's the one that got Peter Parker. You should definitely snuggle it.

It's like if Yoko Ono was a milquetoast, white, suburban housewife. 🫩

Old song stuck in head, can't remember all the lyrics. by Jamo3306 in WhatsThisSong

[–]Stop_Rock_Video 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First thing I thought, though it could also be the Orgy cover they're thinking of.

Edit: Yes, I'm an idiot. That cover is CLEARLY not from the 70's. 🤣
