About 30 seconds in the guitar work started annoying the f**k out of me. It got worse around 1:15. Once the vox kicked in it was unbearable.
You should listen to stuff with melody and good songwriting, not guitar wankery and awful vox (the vox in both of those songs are WAY better than either Rush or Megadeth and are far from just "mindless screaming" or whatever.)
If you seriously think that so-called "guitar wankery" is the only motivation for why people like metal music then you are seriously closeted.
But, BUT, I will say that the two songs you posted are surprisingly in pretty good taste for what I expected from you. Especially the second one.
So congratulations, you have won a little bit of respect from Mechaman. Now the only thing you have left to do in life is
win back the old man's respect.
