But I think so.
All these other dudes are just flashy IMO.

Anyone who picked Sinister Gates[<--He doesn't deserve to have his name spelled incorrectly] I feel bad for.

If all he does is tap a lot, then yes. He probably could.
But yeah..Avenged Sevefold is a load of crap IMO.
And plus, I'm not really one's for solos.
Breakdowns and technicality is good for me.
I lose interest fast with solos.

A lot of people would probably go--->"But how?! Breakdowns are soooo generic and they suck too, and they are all recylced."
I'f you're not going to take the time out to find the differences, then shut up.

I find it the opposite. Breakdowns completely ruin songs for me. They usually are so boring and sound like garbage. Solos can get overdone, but I've never heard a song ruined by overdone solo(s).

Wow that's one monster generalization you just made there. I mean I don't consider myself an A7X fan but to deny the solos any degree of skill/difficulty is foolish babble. I dig solos and breakdowns, they can both enhance a song if done properly. I don't think its fair to say one sucks and one doesn't.

Yet another fine example of a complete generalization. while I agree that some breakdowns do indeed sound like garbage and are boring, i dont think you can say that for every breakdown ever written.

Well, I just find that A7X songs are just made to look/sound flashy.
Sure, maybe they have one maybe two good ones, but I think I generalized correctly. If you can even do that. lol
And it's not babble if it's an opinoin. It's only my opinoin, and my preferance. I don't like solos very much. Maybe I'm too much of a 'sc3n3 kid', or a 'br00tal d00d'. Who knows.

One of my favorite bands is in my sig, so of course I don't hate all breakdowns.

i know, i made a mistake when i made the poll. Padge is pretty damn good though, especially at solos.
