I subscribe to GW and I got that mag not too long ago. I agree, some parts of the interview made me laugh. Especially with Sam Totman and Herman Li when they kept going back and fourth saying how much Sam sucks at guitar. Every time they were asked a question, Sam's playing was mention, it was very annoying. Even then, the shred lesson really wasn't all that great. A couple cool riffs, but I was dissapointed. Trivium did a good job with their song lesson though, they usually do.
