This guys definitely need more recognition and make it BIG. Not only their skills are top notch but they write good and catchy tunes with good amount of shreddy riffs and solos, a perfect balance between 80's best and a modern djenty/chug kind of sound. Kudos!!!

Just how hard rock should be played !! Les Paul, loads'a'Gain, plenty of screaming pinched harmonics and bags of expression. I hear so many influences in here and great to see it all executed by a younger generation, gives me hope the 80s guitar era is not dead and is still a big influence to the guitarists of today. I feel privileged to have lived through the years when this kinda of stuff was mainstream.

@@JoseJr1977 It's just blues and country licks, but faster. Guys like Chuck Berry, B. B. King, Slash, Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. Not goddamn Alexi Laiho or Sinergy. Are you deaf. Just because they are Finnish doesn't mean they sound like Alexi Laiho. Guitar playing like this derives straight from blues. There's some other licks that are not as bluesy, just normal minor scale really. They are obviously influenced by players like Paul Gilbert, Nuno Bettencourt, E. Van Halen, Slash but mostly just classic blues with high distortion and more speed. Yes most guitarists (like Laiho) use penatonic rock licks, but they copied them from the same blues guys
