Check this out.


There are about ten or so of these videos on youtube.

I watched many of them around the time of Gamma Ray's next to last album. that album was filled with them1

the cinderella/lou gramm and survivor/rough cutt i can see but i dont hear a lot from the others...

There's a whooolle lot more than ten of them bro, there's gotta be at least 30-40 all from the same guy. I've seen a lot of them before.

Metal has a very limited musical vocabulary, finding numerous songs with similar riffs is expected.

I thought they were going to compare the next riff, the melodic one in Megadeth's Hangar 18, to Diamond Head's Living on Borrowed Time

Yep, like when I started singing Bedlam in Belgium when Thunderstruck came out, my boss at the time in the record store said, "there are only so many notes on a guitar neck".

You have to figure that some of those bands and songs may have been influenced by the other bands and songs and like said above there are only so many notes on a guitar neck.
