guitarist of UK thrashers EVILE, this is something he's been getting a lot
of since EVILE became one of the most talked about modern thrash bands.
OL explains:
"The one thing people always ask me at shows is 'who is your favourite
guitarist?' or 'what's your favourite guitar solo?', so I thought I'd make a
few videos to show people my favourites, my influences and me just playing
what I like to play when I'm messing around on the axe.
"Included is work by Jeff Waters (Annihilator) who was probably the biggest
influence to me on guitar, Marty Friedman/Megadeth who made me re-evaluate
my approach to playing rhythm and lead, and Kirk Hammett (Metallica) who
originally opened me up (ooh matron) to playing lead guitar.
"Keep checking back for new videos, I always like to take a quick break from
writing to play some old classics!"
