I wouldnt usually add to a so called ´Band Bashing´ thread coz like u all said it gets tiresome, but i thought i oughta say this.....I used to be really into dissing bands i didnt like all over the internet and i was well know for bringing up such topics with my friends, but now I find that on a daily basis I find myself myself listening to bands I used to say sucked....I was alive and listening to the charts when songs from Metallica´s black album were on it and i used to turn off the radio till the song was finished.....a few years later and KH is at the top of my inspiration list......thats one of many examples.....so no offense Vanrhoads but try and be open minded....consider that your taste is bound to change the more you get into the world of the guitar....if you are only 15 you got years ahead of you for this to happen.....trust me i know, ive only been playing for 5 years and at the start i would never have imagined myself being where I am now.

Good luck, chacron.
