"being a better guitar player" is completely subjective and a relative term. |

most people either love him or hate him. But no matter how might feel about him or his music he's a better guitar player than you. |

but it almost seems generic, mid evil, soldier stuff in terms of music writing and that's where it looses all the emotion right off the bat for me. |
|
I love how his album called "Magnum Opus" was one of the worst albums I'd ever heard. |
|
I can uderstand that people would really feel his music, and I respect that, but I tend to agree with dylanshmai. Although he's technically sound, I find his sense of musicality entirely unappealing. The stuff he did with that live orchestra was just terrible to my ears. Not my cup of tea at all. |

He's aweful in my book. His playing has zero emotion and there's nothing special about his music. It's all the same shreddy crap. |

Yngwie Malmsteen... My God, it has been ages since I came across that name. I can't believe somebody as young as you has even heard of him. My opinion is that he was just silly hair metal. I admit that he can play guitar better than I can, but then again, so can Kip Winger and C.C. Deville. |
|
How do you know you are not dreaming right now?
well if anyone saw G3, there was a song where Ygnie and Vai were taking tuns soloing, Ygnie would always go for the faster solos, but Vai's had so much more personality and execution when playing with the rest of the band. |
|
Pretty much like Michael Angelo, only overweight which makes the hair look acceptable. It's just generic hair metal and without it we wouldn't know what hair metal is... so it's probably good. Although by that reasoning racism is good as well... Anyway, I'm losing the thread here. |

You'd think the kind of stuff he plays would relate well to orchestral accompaniment, yes, but in reality his playing style completely ruins the balance. He throws in little licks that are just inappropriate and ruin the dynamics. Sounds more like he's sitting at home screwing around to a jam track than anything. |
|
Yeah, the Vai concert with the orchestra doesn't even compare to that. Why does Malmsteen's guitar always sound so utterly vile? I can understand that you would wanna do a couple tracks with that type of sound if you're a good shredder but COME ON, your amp must have more settings than that?!?! I mean seriously... |

You've heard the orchestra thing Vai did? Where? I've been wanting to hear that forever. |
|
It's on YouTube, probably in higher quality on other sites as well... |

Wow I seriously hope that wasn't meant to be a song. He should put that beautiful guitar down and never touch it again if that was an attempt at writing music. |
|
His hair annoys me. I didn't even press play for risk of losing my sanity at watching an Ex-Scooby Gang member play guitar. |
|
I hope everybody understands thats not Steve Vai. Also, I don't believe thats supposed to be a song, he's just going through arpeggios that share something in common with each other and the guys timing is good and he is still playing much faster than Ygnie and still hitting the notes he's aiming for. |
