Thrash_Metal: The history of Thrash Metal and its roots can be traced back further than most would think, All the way back to 70's with bands like Black Sabbath, Accept, Judas Priest, Motorhead, and even Led Zeppelin. Of course, the Punk scene was also a decisive factor in the creation of Thrash Metal, early thrash bands like Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Exodus...
Guitar: Electric guitars are generally made with Mahogany (Gibson Les Paul, Parker Fly), Alder (Fender Stratocaster) or Basswood (Ibanez Jem), although many cheaper electric guitars are made with Agathis.
John Sykes: Started his career in 1980 with rock group Tygers of Pan Tang Past bands John has played in are Badlands (Not the Jake E Lee band), Thin Lizzy, Whitesnake, Blue Murder and his solo project "John Sykes".
Motorhead: Some may call Motorhead Speed Metal or Thrash Metal and although bands like Motorhead certainly had a huge influence on these genres, Motorhead is built on a solid basis of good old Rock n Roll with an approach that has remained the same throughout Motorheads history. FAST, EXCITING and VERY VERY LOUD!!
Steve Vai:
In 1974 Steve took guitar lessons from fellow guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani. He attended the Berklee College of Music and toured with Frank Zappa.
