Max Ostro is that guy

[Techdeth]

Now if he gets a band with a good lead singer he could take over the guitar world. He’s very much like Eddie in the invention on new sounds

Simple. Not of this earth.

An alien disguised as '80 sitcom character?

I remember going down the Max rabbit hole a few years ago.

That famous "contest" clip from 3 years ago, which was his best solo IMHO, took many takes to get right, so he is human after all.

Here 'tis. Haven't listened to all his latest uploads, but it was by far my fave at the time:

Got a kick out of the old school arcade game sounds.

Freak of nature for sure. Wish it was the 'guitar player' mix tho, crank that solo Max!

I couldn’t listen to that kind of stuff for long-term listening but it’s so damn impressive. That’s what I really call taking electric guitar to the next level. I may be stuck in Angus and Iommi land spiritually but that stuff is pretty amazing. I’ll still be listening to AC/DC, live extended solos forever though. Most of it is, I need a fun song with hopefully some good riffage and vocals. It’s why I’ll still put Gary Moore above most, even now, because he wrote great rock songs, sang very well and just happened to tear a new asshole into a guitar as well.
Overall these new players are obviously obsessed with guitar and that is a good thing. Hopefully they inspire more youngsters to do the same.

Wow. Impressive.

They just need a frontman . If any of these stellar guys get a band it would be incredible. But they get ego fed on YouTube and don’t realize what getting a good singer could do for them

 

[Strandberg Junkie]

Same with the math-rock stuff like Scale the Summit and Animals as Leaders.
Brilliant, mesmerizing, jaw dropping, inspiring, etc.

But for plain enjoyment I'd rather listen to Beggar's Banquet.

The only thing is Max looks like the first kid I would look for if Mr. Whiskers went missing.

Shredder, sitcom character, arcade sound generator, finds lost cats/dogs, hair model; is there anything this guy can't do?
