I skipped through most of it to the guitars and amps. I like SOAD, but this guy seems like he thinks an awful lot of himself. He rubs me the wrong way.

I love his Mesmerize/Hypnotize album tone. Recorded with an SG and RR5 through a DSL tracked in a room with it's walls covered in acoustic guitars.

He is definitely more a musician than he is a guitar player. The whole band is something else and it is cool.
I feel the same way about Type O Negative.

I only watched the first few minutes so far. How completely insane that he walks into the Cubby Bear on a System of a Down cover band! That's awesome.

He got some great tone indeed. So clear but heavy and percussive. Dig the sounds he got on Steal This Album too.
