Best Death Metal Guitarists Poll!!!!

ok we have had a best death metal drummers poll, now it is time for best death metal guitarists.

John, that wisnae nice! My two favourites were obviously James for being a Thrash legend and Shannon Hamm for the unique sounding solos on the Control Denied album. So Shannon got the vote!

I went for Trey. Morbid Angel haven't always been my favourite band, but I've always loved Trey's inventiveness on both rythmn and lead.

Nah man, i think we all know that Hanneman is a better guitarist than King but to be honest neither have ever done anything that have impressed me that much guitar-wise. It all pretty straight forward simple stuff. Don't get me wrong i love Slayer but i think they are far from being in a best guitarist poll.

Feel free to start a thrash poll and add 'em though.

These guitarists don't come close to Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Eddie Van Halen, Nuno Bettencourt or John Petrucci.

yeah but it was a death metal guitarist poll, most lead guitarists can't play rhythm very well anyway
