20 Top Guitar Solos

Comments

i would add, off the top of my head, "Return to Serenity" by Testament.

Seriously, lists like this ALWAYS forget great metal solos ("Fade to Black" is good , but not enough to represent Metal by itself).

Not more love for Van Halen!! Seriously, this is too much. You people just want to give Mike an excuse to play them in the car and damage my sensitive eardrums. Shut up, David Lee Roth.
