Best Of Alex Skolnick Solo Compilation
Рет қаралды 46,469
4 жыл бұрынThe very best solos of the arguable Technical maestro of Thrash Metal, the insane Alex Skolnick of Testament! Perhaps the most successful Thrash guitarist to incorporate heavy Jazz elements into his masterpieces, and turn it into beautiful shredding chaos! I do not own anything in this video, all music and video is owned by Testament, ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY!

Sadly, due to a copyright strike, I was forced to trim out the "More Than Meets The Eye" solo, my apologies to any who misses the Solo!

The solo in Return to Serenity is absolutely gorgeous! It's one of if not the greatest guitar solo ever. Brotherhood of the Snake amazes me. To do a solo that has any kind of identity over a blast beat is hard enough.

Practice was definitely the best. True American Hate is a close second. Alex's skills are so much more then solos, all the fills he does is really what stands out in his playing style.

You missed Eerie Inhabitants. His best work start to finish. That's how good the man is. You can clip solos and still miss one of his monster bombs. I will concede that the Practice solo is absolute insanity that represents peak guitar.

Over the Wall Holy fuck. First heard it when i was 12 years old on the Metal for Melbourne show on at 10pm-12am on 3RRR with Alan Thomas (RIP) way back in 1987 & still remember the solo from it note for note in my head at 47 years old. Such is the epicness of that solo. The solo of Practice What you Preach is fucking mind blowing too \m/

Skolnick is obviously a Star here, but they’re all amazing. The whole band shreds. There are so many shitty bands that got more attention than Testament and to me, that’s a sin. That’s blasphemy. These guys are as good at thrash metal or better than the big 4. If you listen to what Testament has released over the last 3 decades and put against any of the big four, they suck compared to Testament. This band might be the greatest thrash metal band of all time.
