I don't think you can copyright the title of a work, just the work itself.

It's funny to see what these guys think is difficult. Tempo and time signature changes are really common in metal (especially thrash) and almost any metal player has to get used to them right from the start. The rhythm playing for this song would be about intermediate difficulty, but the solos are ridiculous because, well... Marty Friedman.

what ...the....FUCK did i just watch?
this video had me mouthing off like don rickles on a crystal meth bender but i'll curb my urge to eviscerate this....*cough*.....music?
talent aside...and lets be up front..these guys have some talent but the whole "arpeggio/melodic/overload with lyrical operatic overtones" was already done by jason becker and marty friedman in the 80's.if you like these guys you will most likely enjoy CACOPHONY.
i'll upvote on the bizzar factor but not on content.this song is...yeesh.../cringes.
meh../shrugs..maybe its just me but it seems they should be played at 33 RPM's and not 44 RPM's.
and i am by no means a purists,my music tastes are extremely eclectic but i'll listen to death metal before being subjected to this.
sorry guitarwolf but i cant join ya in appreciating this band.
seems you really like them.

Wow, I haven't heard the name Marty Friedman in a long, long time. Makes me wonder what Chris Poland and Gar Samuelson are doing these days. Hell, what about Ellefson? Am I showing my age?

thank you, he is one of those musicians that I never get tired of listening to. There are some other Paul Gilbert videos that are equally as cool, especially stuff from his space ship one sessions. He makes it look so easy! hehe. There is this awesome video of him and Marty Friedman on this Japanese game show where they have to battle each other in different ways, its really great to watch. I'll try and post it in the near future.

Rex Carroll, Marty Friedman, Matt Slocum (of Sixpence), SRV

And of course, the greatest of them all, one Mr. Kurt Cobain
