So your response to the guitarists who are known for being obscenely technical, and for DT currently owns the world record for most time signature changes in a song is "inanity". A person who has been lead guitarist, main producer, writer and singer for multiple bands and current/longest lasting member of G3?

Modern metal has become insanely competitive with young bands competing against each other to be sky high technical, since that's the main differentiation these days.

What does a modern guitarist need to do? Be the literal re-incarnation?
