I quite like the one about Robert Johnson selling his soul to the devil cause it's such a cool story. Clearly not true. Even if there is an entity like Satan, I doubt he's coming to earth and dealing with Blues singers.

I am shocked by that story! I'm serious!

They said the same thing about Zeppelin.

Dude, if you were the devil, what else would you be doing?

To hell with that guy, Paganini sold his soul to the devil before it was cool.

And Yngwie bought it back for him posthumously.

That must be why his music is so lifeless and bland, poor Swede's got no soul.

Carpe Mortem 12-10-2014 04:44 PM

Agreed, Yngwie is a little overrated. I've still dug some stuff though.

As a guitarist, hearing his debut in 1983 was ridiculously mind blowing.

His speed is certainly impressive, but musically it's lifeless and uninteresting imo. Sort of similar to Dragonforce, ja the guys can wank ten times faster than I can but behind the veil of speed is ****e music.
