[KarmaSutra]

Rush - Here Again (an epic two minute bluesy lead)

A-fvcking-men! Lifeson fvcking kills it! That's a pretty deep cut and not something a casual RUSH fan would even spend time with.

Good job!

 

[PRMoon]

Dragon Force - Through Fire and Flame

 

[Corona]

A-fvcking-men! Lifeson fvcking kills it! That's a pretty deep cut and not something a casual RUSH fan would even spend time with.

Good job!

Yeah, I was actually surprised that you chose Subdivisions as your favorite solo from Rush, because I consider it a rather weak song.

Good picks on your Sabbath choices, I was considering "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath" but Supernaut got the best of me with some of the most solid metal drumming ever. I obviously had a hard time limiting my thrash selections.
