    When it comes to evaluating a musician, individuality is the characteristic that I hold in highest regard. We all have our heroes and favorite players from whom we've learned a great deal through trying to emulate their playing styles.
    In rock, for example, most players list Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page as major influences, and in metal it's not uncommon to hear the names Eddie Van Halen, Randy Rhoads, Zakk Wylde or Dimebag Darrell mentioned as primary influences.
    In that sense, many of us have learned from the same sources. The trick is to take those influences and push yourself in your own unique and distinct direction. Though it may be easier to learn other people's solos-which is fine if that's the goal you're pursuing-I believe it's much more rewarding to go out on a limb and take some musical chances, just to see what new and different sounds you can discover in the pursuit of forming a style that you can eventually call your own.

    His playing on Rust In Piece is some of the greatest metal of all time by anyone.

    • @EricMetalhead
      @EricMetalhead 10 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      For me Rust in Peace and Symbolic by Death are the two greatest metal albums of all time, and Marty is one of the biggest reasongs why Rust is so good.

      MaTtRoSiTy Definitely, you should check out the solo he did for Skyharbor's Celestial. It's so imediately recognizable it's not even funny.
      Needless to say it's an awesome fucking solo too.

    I love how he plays fast but his phrases aren't just linear runs through scales or the equivalent of arpeggio exercises. Every phrase is well thought out and melodic with interesting note choices.
    I find Marty far more interesting and original than 99% of shredders

    so true, when I had just begun learning guitar, I had only learned the C major scale. But the first melody I ever made was in E minor but I also used a major 6th, obviously I didn't understand that back tgen but now when I look at it I see the most unique melody by me

I love hammer-on's and pull-off's because it sounds cool and it's really comfortable and I always combine that with bending and I think it sounds pretty good ;) I guess my playing is labeled as blues/rock :) I'm not a shredder though haha!

  • @lgwelsh1
    @lgwelsh1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The concept he is trying to get across is to be different. Playing fast doesn't mean a thing if it doesn't say something musically. Most shredder types play a bunch of complicated nonsense that rarely fit's anywhere than by itself in a stand alone environment. Players like Marty get it, playing outside the box, adding dynamics and making it musical is how you differentiate yourself from the pack.
