    Josh obviously isn't shrouded in anonymity, but he is absolutely our Stig. Lets his craft do all the talking; doesn't need to be a talking head, cracking jokes or reviewing gear. He is the distilled essence of metal bass mastery. The Beast. Thunderfingers. I am proud to call this man my friend and colleague.

    Jesus...Josh is a fucking beast! So much for saying that Holy Wars can't truly be done via fingers. Outstanding job Josh!
