Face Melt: Rodrigo y Gabriela

This video pretty much says it all. Once again, my face is a pile of goo, melted by these Latino classical guitaristas, Rodrigo y Gabriela. The last time I did this to a guitar, I broke 18 knuckles, ripped of 33 fingernails, and tore the strings straight in half.

Thanks to Steph for this suggestion.

Hailing from Mexico, here they are playing “Diablo Rojo” (Red Devil).

Face Melt: Best Video Ever. This Time I’m Not Lying.Dragonforce – Through the Fire and Flames

This edition of Face Melt brings you Dragonforce - Through The Fire and Flame.

Woowwww. So, this song has been made popular by Guitar Hero; but few have seen the glory of the real music video. I’ve never seen shredding this amazing in my life. About 3.5 minutes in, this turns into the best music video ever. OMG.

Everything is right about this band. The hair, the Ibanez, the Flying V, the beer, the disgusting bass drum.

My face is in a melted pile on the floor.

Please do yourself a favor and enjoy the whole thing:

So, I’m starting a new series…with absolutely no promises on how often I’ll update it. It’s called “Face Melt” and it will just be my guilty pleasure of ridiculous guitar players who may or may not grace my iPod; but are certainly worth the “holy balls” factor.
