    While both have slightly different styles, there are some similarities including both having incredible chops. Poland is best known for his playing within the band Ohm whereas Kiko made his name in Angra.

    Nothing against Kiko, dude is an absolute beast but I don't know that I could pull him out of a group of guitarist by style. But Chris, I could tell you within a few scales that that is without doubt Chris Poland. Totally unique tone and phrasing. The album he did with his brother Mark, Return to Metalopolis, is easily one of the best books in the metal Bible and some of the greatest guitar work ever!

  • @GabAssbreaker
    @GabAssbreaker Год назад +31

    Ill take Chris Poland over both Kiko and Marty Friedman any day, he's the Alan Holdsworth of Thrash Metal. I still love Kiko Louriero tho, his work on the first Angra album is wonderful, and i don't think i need to talk about Marty's greatness, the man invented his own style.

  • @rushshukla4636
    @rushshukla4636 Год назад +13

    Chris Poland! His legato is so fluid like Holdsworth. It doesn't even sound like a guitar. It could be sax or piano. Kiko is technically amazing as is Friedman and Broderick but they are just not on his level. Poland smokes them all. His index finger got trapped in a door at school and distended the joint which has worked to his advantage allowing him to stretch out more. No one alive can play like he does. He's freaking outta this world. Best Deth guitarist.

  • @labontetrevor
    @labontetrevor Год назад +22

    Chris Poland has a style all his own, and his timing and flow are second to none. Plus, the man was improvising. Everyone else’s solos are canned and memorized. Chris Poland is a heavy duty fusion player who was just jobbing with Megadeth, but managed to smoke pretty every other metal guitar player to this day! Was he even trying? He plays fantastic lines, like Jan Hammer/Mahavishnu, but without studying music theory, and without being able to really bend or move his index finger.

  • @arnyarny77

    Kiko is a fantastic player, no contest. But there is something about Chris Poland- be it vibrato, phrasing, that smoking legato, bending- you just KNOW, immediately, exactly who it is you're listening to. Poland for me.

    I really like Kiko,but Poland is an original, unique sounding beast. You already know from the first notes who`s playing. btw: There`s also been mentioned by some of the former Megadeth-guitarists, that Poland`s leads are the most difficult for them trying to duplicate.

    • @michaelpatterson9119
      @michaelpatterson9119 28 дней назад +2

      Yes they are.when you type Chris Poland cover Solo's you only find Chris Poland playing his stuff.you can type in every other Megadeth guitar player and you will find 100's of covers played note for note.that by itself is a good way to measure how hard this guys solos are.it is puzzling that he does not get the credit he deserves.everone worships Marty and Kiko and Poland is forgotten for the most part.any guitar player that is reasonably skilled and is a Megadeth fan should know that Chris outclasses all other current and former guitar players from Megadeth's formation.dave m is on the bottom of every Megadeth guitar players that ever created a album with Dave muistane as well.

    Kiko plays the ginarich fast arpeggios and has a bar on his guitar that he never uses.poland goes uses the bar flawlessly without much effort hitting each note perfectly. His style is almost impossible to replicate.kiko is just playing scales fast with no emotion.a robotic type shredder.im not saying he not very talented and a first class shredder.chris is just more dynamic and much harder to replicate.almist impossible to replicate his chops.so for me Chris Poland takes this.
