    I'm Pete, I play guitar! Having fun with metal guitar doing everything from modern and progressive metal, extended range 7 strings and 8 strings to thrash metal on a good old 6 string. Riffs in the styles of other bands, shredding and lots of fun with metal music!

    - Thumper-Struck: Animals As Leaders (Tosin Abasi)
    - Hammer-On Hero: Tool (Adam Jones)
    - Djentleman: Messhugah, Periphery (and mostly just a lot of djent bands in general)

      And "The Cynic" (first one) is very obviously in relation to the band Cynic. Not sure what "The Bland Conjuration" is, although I feel it's on the tip of my tongue. Also, love how "Technical (Death Metal) Difficulties" was kinda a TechDeath version of "Technical Difficulties" by Paul Gilbert / Racer X.

    Let me guess your inspirations for some of the riffs:
    The Shred Head: %60 In the Name of God (Dream Theater) - %40 This Dying Soul?? (Dream Theater)
    Thumper-Struck: Definitely something from Tosin Abasi. Can't remember the name.
    The Bland Conjuration: The Grand Conjuration (Opeth duh)
    Technical (Death Metal) Difficulties: Stabwound (Necrophagist)
    The Hammer-On Hero: The Pot (Tool)
    The Djentlemen: New Millennium Cyanide Christ (Meshuggah)
    Excuse my lack of musical knowledge if I'm wrong.
