      So what? Cliche literally means "norm". Things become norm when a lot of people admire it and copy it, that's how you know it's great! I know how you feel though, I felt the same about his other videos, made me feel like those solos were terrible, but then I realized he's a great guitarist and admires songs with these "cliches" in them...

    #8 is Diamond Head - Sucking my love!! One of my favorite solos so much groove in the interlude that leads into this section \m/

    The whole thing is really good, but the "i can play melodically too" really hits different... Then it got harmonized and i really felt it. Even the rhythm guitar during that part was on point. Thank you Bradley, very cool.
