The song completely sucks, but the guitar work is pretty insane in terms of speed.

I figured anyone capable of playing rifts faster and clearer than Joe Satriani on "Back to Shalla Bal" would have their head explode in the attempt, but I now stand corrected.








The vocals on alot of these bands did suck I agree, but in most of these types of bands the instrument players are the talent.

I'll give a couple of examples and some you might not of heard of.

Cacophony stared Jason Becker and Marty Freedman in there early days. Vocal sucked bad but again guitar rocked. Jason sadly developed ALS and marty moved on to megadeth.

Impellitteri starring Chris and had the vocals from the guy who sang for alcatraz(he sucked)but the riffs where great.

another band I liked was savatage started by Jon Oliva and Criss Oliva(who was killed)featured great music also but Jons voice is rough.

fast guitar players could be argued all day, any one remember Yngwie malmsteen .

I'll correct myself on my earlier statement to read "the guys from dragonforce are fast and impressive".
