My music taste in my opinion is just diverse: I can go from listening to normal Post Rock to metal genres. I mainly listen to "everything" except Pop, Crunk, Some rap, Country, and Emo.
Here are my favourites:
TOP 5 FAVOURITE MUSIC (METAL) GENRES:
5. Symphonic/Melodic/Atmospheric Black Metal (Dimmu Borgir, Alcest, Emperor, Burzum, Mayhem, Ulver, Dissection, Drudkh)
4. Neo-Classical Metal/Power Metal (Jason Becker, Stratovarius, Yngwie Malmsteem, Helloween, Tony Malcipine, Jeff Loomis)
3. (Extreme) Progressive Metal (Dream Theater, Opeth, Queensryche, Nevermore, Devin Townsend, Tool, Pain of Salvation, Ne Obliviscaris)
2. Melodic Death Metal (In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, At The Gates, Arch Enemy, Hypocrisy, Insomnium, Wintersun, Scar Symmetry, Soilwork)
1. Thrash Metal (Metallica, Megadeth, Kreator, Sylosis, Slayer, Testament, The Haunted, The Crown)

If you didn't know, I am also a guitar player who is also passionate with not just playing tf2 competitive matches but in reality, my main goal is to play a range of Metal Music and Classical music (fingerpicking) and improve my skills on my guitar to become not just a better musician or guitarist but a better character of myself of who I am. I started playing guitar when I was 12 in France Saint-Germain when my mother brought me my first classical guitar which was worth €60 when she could not find a clarinet lesson which I used to play only Clarinet before and I was also a moron, playing a clarinet at first. I also had no musical experience at all or even ideas of music theory but my first song that I have covered was Meet the Engie from TF2 which triggered me to play guitar before in France. When my family arrived to England or UK, I have expanded my ears, listening to agressive Metal Music by listening to Black Sabbath which got me expanding my knowledge of how I can reach to play guitar on another level and I'm very lucky to hear it at first because UK is known for popular rock and metal music. This year, I am aiming to expand my guitar skills with 3 goals:

> Adapt to play a Neo-classical style by learning and analyze players effectively by playing their music like Jason Becker, Marty Friedman or Jeff loomis
> Play more fingerpicking folk, classical music and basics of Jazz Music on guitar to become an incredibly skilled guitarist.
> Learn Music theory to expand my creativity inside my mind of musical knowledge outside and inside of Metal Music.

I have played guitar for about 2-3 years and still playing guitar to this day which I will never leave my passion and never loose a skill with my guitar. <3

Here are my inspirations and my favourite guitar players:
1. Jason Becker (Guitar Prodigy who created a neo-classical album at the age of 19)
2. John Petrucci (Incredibly skilled player who creates complex riffs with extensive range of solos for the band Dream Theater )
3. Mikael Akerfeldt (Best song-writer, guitarist and vocalist from the band Opeth who created an idea of a mix of Death Metal and Progressive Rock/Metal)
4. Jeff Loomis (The only Guitarist that would play the most technical riffs from Nevermore, Conquering Dystopia and his solo work that sounds melodically good and shreds like Jason Becker with a 7 string which is the reason why he is my big inspiration to play 7 string)
5. Dave Mustaine (Most Influential Guitarist of Thrash Metal)
6. Chuck Schuldiner (A man who first brought Death Metal first with philosophical content) R.I.P
7. Michael Amott (The man that started Melodeath in the wrong time with the band Carcass and moved to Arch Enemy)
8. Yngwie Malmsteen (Most Influential Neo-classical Metal guitar player)
9. Chris Broderick
10. Michael Romeo
