@@josephbobbitt7759 They're not, at least in my book. An EASY top 3 on this list. My biggest problem is why there is a beef between both Downing/Tipton AND Denner/Shermann right now. It just makes no sense to me.
Yes King Diamond. The Eye was a perfect album. Missed my younger years when Fatal Portrait and Abigail was playing everyday. and The Candle was my anthem.
Andy LaRocque and Pete Blakk- King Diamond.....Them, Conspiracy, and The Eye records, awesome for me the best, although the current team of LaRocque and Mike Wead is also damn good too!
Thin lizzy was always one of the most underrated bands..and live they took it to a whole different level..i truly hope there is a rock and roll heaven..
Great choices, especially including Robertson and Gorham in Lizzy. Phenomenal. I'd also consider Scorpions Matthias Jabbs and Rudolph Schenker. They don't get enough recognition in my opinion.
marcus siepen and andré olbrich (blind guardian) and eric peterson and alex scolnick (testament) are some of my all time favorites🤘 and tho they were not mentiond i would have to say Peter Szigeti and Rudy Graf (warlock) is another great duo!
Yes M and M from LOVEBITES outplay everyone of them. At the same level is Hizaki and Teru from Versailles. Saki and Hazuki is too modern to compare these old guys with. Oh when Hazuki and Lisa-X are playing in KOIAI is a joy for the ears. Sorry, but there are so many more duos that outplay these guys. My dream duo is Syu from GALNERYUS and Hal-Ca from Asterism. Those 2 is something else.... And by the way. I am 60+ yo and if I were nostalgic this list would be OKI but the guitarists of today is on another level.
I always like listing Honorable Mentions that are actually not mentioned. In no order. Criss Oliva/Chris Caffery-Savatage Dave Pritchard/Phil Sandoval-Armored Saint Larry Barragan/Rob Trevino-Helstar Mike Nyrkkanen/Scott Nyquist-Wrath Chris Holmes/Randy Piper/WASP Stefan Kaufman/Igor Gianola-U.D.O Fernando von Arb/Mark Kohler-Krokus Mark Reale/Rick Ventura-Riot
Forgot about Von Arb and Kohler! Those guys ripped on Headhunters and the Blitz. I don't listen to Krokus often anymore but when I do I'm always struck by how good those 2 were.
Michael Denner and Hank Sherman - Mercyful Fate Michael Denner and Andy LaRocque - King Diamond Gary Holt and Rick Hunolt - Exodus Doug Cerrito and Terrance Hobbs - Suffucation Eric Peterson and Alex Scolnick - Testament Jeff Hanneman and Kerry king - Slayer Brent Hinds and Bill Kelliher - Mastodon Larry Barragan and André Corbin - Helstar
I'm glad Mille Petrozza and Frank Blackfire made an honourable mention. The short time they played together in Kreator was some of the best guitar work in their history. Extreme Aggression was a brutal album for it's time.
My personal pick is - Kai Hansen/Michael Weikath (Helloween) But also want to add Rudolf Shenker/Matthias Jabs (Scorpions) and Adrian Vandenberg/Steve Vai (Whitesnake)
Awesome. It’s completely awesome to see Jason Becker and Marty Friedman on here. My favorite duo of all time. Usually only guitarists only know about Becker and his whole story. When I saw that I knew Friedman could be on two lists, and alas I was correct. Awesome list!
The internet choices were great pics. All of them. Honorable mentions were excellent too. You could also all Mike and Chris Amott. The 1st 3 Arch Enemy albums are pure gold.
When you do check the lovebites-japanese female metal band-Miyako and Midori,than you will change your mind,im sure in that. Now this duo is the best in the world
Miyako and Midori from Lovebites has raised the bar, and brought innovation and new life to Metal Music, combined with the classic Metal from the good old days, and No, they are not Babymetal.
These guys created songs that were built to last. Dissident Aggressor defines metal imo. The two albums released under the Denner/Shermann moniker are loaded with juicy riffs as well. Great list, including honorable mentions.
@@德米特里-g9z Allman Brothers don't really fit into the hard rock/heavy metal category. Wishbone Ash has been cited as an influence by members of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest.
@@RuthlessMetalYT the band has been gaining popularity for several years now since they debuted in 2017 and won Metal Hammer’s Golden Hammer award for best new band in 2018, they are the first ever all female band from japan to perform at three of the largest festivals in the world in 2018, their latest album was the number one album sold on itunes in over 15 countries including USA and Canada and is the #15/50 best metal albums of 2023 their song Sand and Deliver is the #15 best metal songs of 2023, they have songs being played on SiriusXM radio in the US and Canada. So between word of mouth from fans (Wolfpack)and reaction videos from youtube they have managed to gain a worldwide following and besides any fans of these great guitarists in this video would see how much of an influence these guys have on these women and it’s a good thing that they are inspiring younger artists to carry on the tradition of great guitar work
I have not heard of Allegaeon but they can shit on any list they want for what ever reason they want that’s just their own insecurities and jealousy talking because it all comes down to their sensitive male egos because they don’t make “The List”
Bro you've got some real information... Hard work... Appreciate it 👍 I've been watching your videos from a long time now and you're great youtuber... You deserve millions of followers ❤️
Swap the top two and you have a list. Murray and Smith have better longer more intricate songs, more time changes and melodic parts too. The fact that Maiden are widely recognised as the greatest metal band ever goes to prove that. I do love and respect the Priest but Maiden are just a level above.
It's hard to argue with Downing/Tipton in the top spot. They would probably be my pick, if I had to choose just one duo. It just doesn't get more iconic. Some of my other favorites showed up in honorable mentions: Wilton/DeGarmo, Skolnick/Peterson, Quinn/Oliver. So many more that could be mentioned, but maybe not all of them have quite reached that iconic status as a duo. Johansson/Björkman from Candlemass comes to mind. I love the LaRocque/Blakk era of King Diamond as well.
Tipton / Downing; Adrian smith / dave Murray; but for me the best metal duo was Jeff hanneman and Kerry king 🤘 . scott gorman and Gary Moore from early thin lizzy was great too
I’d replace Hanneman/King (influential but I’d not call them the best) with Midori/Miyako from Lovebites And I’d add Scholnick/Petersen, LaRocque/Schuldiner, LaRocque/Drover I say I’d replace king/Hanneman simply because Hanneman was fantastic but King (love him) his solos just don’t have the swagger
I know a lot of guitar duos from this list. Others I'd include: Olavi Mikkonen and Johan Söderberg (Amon Amarth) Chris Rorland and Thobbe Englund/Tommy Johansson (Sabaton) Michael Amott and Chris Amott/Jeff Loomis (Arch Enemy) Herman Li and Sam Totman (DragonForce) Oscar Dronjak and Stefan Elmgren/Pontus Norgren (HammerFall) Matthew and Charles Greywolf (Powerwolf) Alexi Laiho and Alexander Kuoppala/Roope Latvala (Children of Bodom)
Great video! Hard to disagree with any of these picks! Two that should have been honorable mentions since hard rock is included are Snake Sabo and Scottie Hill from Skid Row and of course Slash and Izzy Stradlin from G&R.
Yes highly agree. Maiden and Priest duos always on top. Especially Tipton n Downing unreplaceable duos. British, Defender, Turbo, Ram, Painkiller. That was my energies. But you probably forget Night Rangers duos. Brad Gillis n Jason Becker thats killing machines too. Handle Master vs 8 finger tapping.
Yeah, that sounds about right. But, damn, there's some very fine metal in this list!🤘🤘 I noticed in the clip of Kai Hansen and Michael Weikath that Marcus Großkopf also got in there with the base. It was almost a thruple.
Yngwie Malmsteen /Yngwie Malmsteen……any duo from Scandinavia or United Kingdom , Germany ..your picks are great I’d agree with most…I wonder if we’re missing out on some from obscure bands/countries that aren’t really famous for big metal/ hard rock bands
Yes,Great list,Young Brothers and Murray-Smith,Quinn-Oliver,Holt-Hunolt,Spitz-Ian,Cavestany-Pepa,Gilberrt-Bouillet,Vanderhoof-Wells,Matheos-Arduini....80's Metal,for my opinion,the most beautiful and unparalleled period of metal music!!🤘🤘🤘
I think Matthias Jabs and Rudolf Schenker are one of the best guitar duos as well, but i can understand that this list may not be able to cover everything.
Woah, how did this list miss Gary Holt and Rick Hunolt from Exodus as well as Terrence Hobbs and Doug Cerrito from Suffocation? What about Paul Masvidal and Chuck Schuldiner from 'Human' era Death? Lastly, what about Ralph Santolla (Deicide/Obituary) and Trevor Peres OR Jack Owen? Even though Michael Denner was mentioned, I would argue that him and Andy LaRoque from King Diamond did more impressive guitar work granted MF is much different than KD.
I agree, nice list of guitar legends.... except for Hanneman & King. I love Slayer, but not because of their guitar duos but for their speed and groovy headbanging rythms.
