Music, well metal I guess, nowadays is over-run with the same guitar solo's that were written back in '82. Bullet For My Valentine is a major one that comes to mind. Listen to their shit, and I do mean shit. Their music is decent, kinda catchy and shit and then BAM! They slap you in the face with an old ass Iron Maiden solo from 1982. Shit son, you're not Iron Maiden! You may be British and ugly but that doesn't mean shit!
Anyone who disagrees with me should watch Head Banger's Balls. They have about 40 billion bands on there, well actually one band but 40 billion different names for that band. It pisses me right the fuck off. Seriously, they may have some good shit for about half a second but the other 10 minutes and 37 seconds is filled Iron Maiden solo's and fast double bass. Shit son, you're not Iron Maiden, so don't use their solo's. Have your own style, jack ass. It's not hard, it just takes a little creative thought! I know! It's insane!
In fact, the only band that should be allowed to have Iron Maiden solo's is Iron Maiden. If you have a band who isn't Iron Maiden and you try to have their solo's, you need find your mother and punch her in the face for not having an abortion when she was pregnant with you.
