Why do Electric guitars sound like complete shit in any genre that's not metal?

It's like every guitarist only wants to show off his skills instead of making a pleasant song in harmony with other instruments.
No, with guitarists it's always about me me me, they always want to be the lead instrument and play as furiously as possible and use three guitars at once and play with their teeth and while doing so they leave no space for anyone else.

Electric Guitar is probably the best instrument ever invented barring Oboe

hes a really fucking good guitarist but is much more concerned about the overall presentation of the music and collaborating with all 10+ members of the band.

His work with the Allman Brothers Band is a bit more wankery oriented but still compelling and not just about him as he has another oustanding guitarist standing next to him.

Very humble and great guitarist.

Glad to know not all guitarists are frauds

Im not really into wankery but that was some badass guitar playing. I thought they were dad rock. I love the ABB now WTF?

Metal, and all associated genres based around electric guitars, angry lyrics and wholesale lifted medieval/mythological imagery are a bad joke that appeal only to edgy teenagers and adults who never grew out of that phase.
>>
>>75036858
You definitely need to listen to more music.

This is what a guitar in rock music should sound like

Well not exactly this, but in aggressive rock music the guitar tone needs to have the same sort aesthetic as the composition. In metal, on rare occasions do the guitars feel as fierce or violent as the compositions themselves are

I'll indulge you - how could you have possibly determined that metal guitarists are worthy of praise? Have you ever listened to jazz or flamenco guitar players?

Because the good guitar stuff has already been done, and if you release a clean, original guitar track and upload it to a public service, you will get multiple DMCA takedown requests.

See? It's already been done.

What has been done? You're not even trying.

>>75039950
Every good guitar riff, ever. You were even able to post examples. You're not even reading.
>>
>>75039964
What are you even talking about? At least try to insert some sense into your baits.

You haven't heard the joke that there is no original music after Beethoven, then.
We only use so many chords.
