They still are more technical than a lot of other bands. They can sweep, finger tap, and do many other techniques. Of course there are those who do it better, but I would still consider their use of them pretty skillful. They certainly have simple solos on a chord progression level but on an overall level, its hard to say that the solos are nothing. Plus their use of other instruments together in their instrumental bridges ( and keyboard and bass solos). They might be overrated to most, but I stand by the statement that they are technical.
