also Gary moore-still got the blues because it's cool to improvise over the verse parts!

imo Judas Priest - Diamonds and Rust is also a great song to improvise to.

bass line to black label, it just sounds so fucking good

I believe it's the Moonlight Sonata right now, sounds so deep and spooky on bass.

heh... pesky bassists! get your own thread

well on gitarrr i've been strumming turn the page for the last couple of days, to be on topic

Right now it's Saxon- Princess of the Night, the main riff is so well balanced: easy enough to bang my head and shake my ass like a maniac when i play it but fast enough to keep me on my feet lol

i seem to get some kind of spasm every time i play it maybe it's the SG shape which makes me go like Angus Young(well not really that extreme)

anyway extremely kickass tune, reccomend it to anyone who likes nwobhm/80s metal.

Iron Maiden - The Trooper - because it is so much fun and such a great song. The rhythm guitar is great, all that gallooping!
Iron Maiden - Fear Of the Dark - all these changes from slow to fast and the variations really provide a base for a highly entertaining song!

Led Zeppelin - Livin Lovin Maid it has such a great rhythm guitar!

Deep Purple - Highway Star - one of my alltime favourites, due to its dynamic drive.

Guns N' Roses - Don't Cry (solo), November Rain [...] I love all the Slash-solos, and they are really great to play and you can put a lot of you own feeling in and they still sound good!

Machine Head - Halo, Davidian, Clenching the Fists of Dissent, Beautiful MOurning (and a lot more) I love all those harmonics and fast rhythm guitars and their melodic interludes!

Saxon - allmost all songs! Pure heavy metal, fun to play!

Metallica - Fade to Black, Master of Puppets, Battery [aso] their songs are just great!

Skid Row - Youth gone Wild, Wasted Time, Big Guns Skid Row's hooklines pretty kick ass and they are quite easy to play!

Ozzy Osbourne - Crazy Train
Because it's sounds so much harder than it actually is.

"For the Love of God" by Steve Vai.
It is the most spectacular and skilled song I have ever met.
Of course, I can't play it perfect or completely, because otherwise I would not be working as an administrative.
I did not realise it was so hard while listening to it. I did just when I saw a live video and later tried to play it my own while watching it...fucking impossible. That man was clearly born on the 6 of the sixth month of 1966

The introduction for "Troops of Doom" by Sepultura. I have played it with a couple of bands and it kinda makes me melancholic for old times when I play it now. The riff is great and the drum power of this song is fantastic. We used to have it as intro to our concerts back in 1990 with "Lepracore". I never got out of my province with any band except two concerts in the neighbouring province. We were only known in our city mainly. I had another 3 bands but never achieved or recorded anything with them.

Battery - Metallica

Its easy and it the only song that I can play properly.

Megadeth - 99 ways to die,very interesting to play.

the tapping part in "hellbent" is the real finisher

War Pigs by Black Sabbath. It's one of the few songs I can actually play the solo in it.

If i were a guitarist, which sadly i am not as you might have guessed already, i'd sure like to play led zeppelin's black dog, i just love the guitar on that song. also, foo fighter's everlong, that song always gets me going, it's amazing. but, overall, i'd like to be a guitarist worthy of a progressve band, be just like petrucci!

That would be Death-Spirit Crusher. Just a fun damn song to play.

Mind Traveler by Falconer, What a Killer riff!

El condor pasa the easiest one...

My new favourite: Trapped under Ice by Metallica
this really rocks^^

And I can do now vocals and guitar on halo an clenching the fists of dissent by Machine Head^^

'Burnt Offerings' by Iced Earth. That is just a great tune with a lot of hooks, time changes, and hand technique. 'Breaking The Law' by Judas Priest... just a great classic. 'Gettysburg 1863' in it's entirety by Iced Earth... one of the best pieces of music I have ever heard, and it was a challenge learning those 32 minutes of kick-ass epic metal note for note. Finally 'Pinball Map' by In Flames... just a very high energy song with some great riffs and hooks.

Some of my favorites:
Sepultura- Inquisition Symphony (I just love that tapping solo)
Metallica- Master Of Puppets, For Whom The Bell Tolls (both of them kickass)
Slayer- Angel Of Death, Raining Blood, War Ensemble, Chemical Warfare (cuz I like to improvise the solos)
Terrorizer- Dead Shall Rise (simple and killer)
Kreator- Enemy Of God (good for impressing chicks )

I love to play Technical Difficulties by Racer X. Sure I dont play it anywhere near as good as the godly Paul Gilbert but the song sounds totaly awesome and was not as difficult to learn as I thought it would (I cant play all the solos though!) .

At the moment DIMMU BORGIR -Broderskapets Ring-------Man thats the first song that i learned to play and to growl......

Carcass - Corporeal Jigsaw Quandry. Sounds good even without downtuning to B and sounds good when improving solos, which I barely ever bother to learn these days... too much hassle, am I right?

Buckethead - Welcome to Bucketheadland
Racer X - Technical Difficulties

Great for warm-ups, they've both got a bit of speed to them so they really get the hands moving. Oh and Welcome to Bucketheadland was one of the first full songs I ever learned to play so I always go back to it.

I think it's Embody The Invisible by In Flames. Actually I even don't know why

Of course always with me always with you by Professor Satch
it's easy and relaxing
and Spheres of Madness by decapitated... it's for warming up before i play gig

Lamb Of God - 11th hour, Ruin, Laid to rest. its just easy as fuck to play and i can move around a bit
Slayer - Spirit in black, good warm up for my arm << got alot of down picking

otherwise its just alot of my own material to practise skills with.

Its not metal, but ocean - john butler trio: fucking fast as
