He hopes guitar music dies a painful death and only listens Rap

Polyphia vs Covet round table: “I hope that guitar music dies. I want it to die a painful death”

Meet the six-string anarchists obliterating the guitar rulebook

Really though who cares? It’s his opinion and music tastes…. He’s pushing buttons to get people to talk about him and it’s working. I’d say he knows very well how to get attention in the modern world.

The dude really knows how to make himself viral with his words. Just like certain politicians that create endless fervent arguing

 

[Piing]

He was not wrong Page was so sloppy Live on many occasions not Only EVH made that comment

However, when people says "Eddie Van Halen invented Tapping" he denies it, and he gives credit to Jimmy Page. He had respect and never wished a painful death to any type of music

 

[TubeStack]

Come on, wishing a “painful death” to guitar music while playing in a guitar-based band is pretty funny and purposefully reaction-provoking.

And here we are talking about it. He knows what he’s doing.

 

[Piing]

Exactly like he did with the "bend like a boomer" comment at the Beato channel. Perfectly calculated words to incite discussion. Precisely, that was the first time I heard his name, and I had to google to know WTF he is because that comment was the talk of the town. Mission achieved.

Thread with lots of comments about the younger generations taking shots at the older generations - is full of the older generations taking shots at the younger generations

Absolutely.

Another great example is Chromeo. The guitar and bass sounds are nothing but some cheap tier VST plugins, might be even free ones. Yet in the context of their funky goodness it all just sounds right and the "DI-ness" of the sound doesn't detract. They do have a massive pile of fancy synths tho!

Beastie Boys..... I wonder if they could happen in today's world, though. There was a lot
more variability in what was produced in the 80s/90s versus now. You could be low budget/DIY
and still blow up if the music was groundbreaking.

I don’t know if I’m just at the age where I realize it more or the current younger generation really hates the older generation much more than we did as kids.

I mean, I’ve got more in common with GenX but still bust my dad’s balls about his boomerisms (he’s got some really stereotypical boomerisms, not really sorry about this) but there seems to be a much deeper seated “Anyone over 35 is a f*cking idiot” thing going on these days. (I’m 40)

My own son Boomers me and I am not even a Boomer. WTF? I think the whole Boomer thing became a massive
over-generalization, like you said, for older dudes.... meaning anyone post-30ish. I had to educate him on what a
"generation" is, how long they last, and what differentiates them. When I did he replied, "Whatever, Boomer!"

So he does have a bend or two in him after all.

Both he and Scott seem to approach the guitar in the same way, and different from the others (older people).
Really low wrist and a lot of straight fingers. No throttling of the neck. It's like their thumb is super low on the back
of the neck, they really arch that wrist, and then use the entire length of their fingers without much bending
of the knuckles.

I just watched one of his Beato interviews and enjoyed it. Have never seen the guy talk before.

Seems like a nice guy who is very into what he does. I have no problem with him at all.

I don't get the hated towards Beato either. The guy's channel is a gem, particularly the "What makes this song great?" series.

There's a reason well known, career musicians are willing to give him STEMs to work with.

I don’t hate Beato and I enjoy some of his interviews but the rest of his videos aren’t my thing. His constant bitching about demonetizing and his videos being taken over copyright infringement got very old.

It's always about liking or not liking the personality.

It's always about liking or not liking the personality.

In this case it is both the personality and the music that I dislike. Blackmore was an arrogant pain in the ass that smashed guitars on the stage like an a-hole and mistreated his fellow musicians, but I was a fan
