I disagree on the vibrato and phrasing comment. Angelo has a stellar vibrato. But those are you opinions, I have mine.
As for the metronome. I have tried. He's well over 208bpm on most of the exercises he demonstrates on SpeedKills. And as he's answering questions at the end of his video from students. He answers the one about how fast he can play. He says he doesn't know for sure, but he rips out a lick faster than 208bpm.
As for Angelo's sweeps, far from basic. His broken arpeggio sweeps and his technique is flawless. Go to http://www.mysongbook.com and download the tab for SpeedKills, review it, then see if you agree with yourself.
Sometimes I hit notes only dogs can hear.
