Just because you know umpteen billion scales, it doesn't mean you have to use them all in a solo.

I think it goes without saying that a lot of big horror fans are just nerds and geeks.

Metallica is like the phoenix rising from the ashes. We set everything on fire, and this is what has risen from it - St. Anger being the fire and Death Magnetic being the phoenix.

It really shocked me just to hear of the fans' response to 'St. Anger' not having guitar solos.

I went through a whole blues period in the Nineties, and that had some influence on 'Load' and 'ReLoad.'

Guitar players in the nineties seem to be reacting against the technique oriented eighties.

I've been into horror movies ever since I was five years old.
