synyster gates of avenged sevenfold has a degree in music. does that mean he makes good music?

degree or no degree, good music is good music. It may be easier to make good music with a degree in it, but that's no guarantee.

Yeah I never said it was a guarantee, I was just making a point that it helps.

are you trolling?

also, that elitist bullshit about bassists shouldn't use a pick, is fucking stupid as shit.

Plenty of good bassists use picks. Justin Chancellor uses a pick, that doesn't automatically mean he's a bad bassist

Yeah when I made that statement when I was in a crappy mood

Oh, I know, but that doesn't mean that he's the only good bassist in the whole of the genre.

vouch... being able to write good music is not dependant on whether or not you have a degree.




forsaken... tone down the arrogance a bit...
