Some may consider Japan the home of shred guitar. Plenty of the most famous shredders have made their way over to Japan in their twilight years; Gilbert, Friedman etc.
Well it also turns out, unsurprisingly, that Japan has some pretty ferocious face melters and in this video we take a look at our top 5.
Remember ... this is my personal top 5, and I am not the Guiness Book of World Records, so this is an opinion from some random guy who makes RU-vid videos ... so take it as a bit of fun.

KNAC was a lifestyle, gave information to all local metal bands and clubs in southern calif . Every Sunday night KNAC played ‘beast from the east’ Japanese metal bands. Japanese bands were always worth listening for guitar solos alone

Takafumi Matsubara from Mortalized and GridLink had a stroke a few years ago and wasn't able to use his fretting hand. He took karate classes to help with his rehabilitation and he's able to play like he used to, but with wrist pain if he uses a 7 string or higher. Also, yes, I'm severely biased because he's a buddy of mine, but he is still someone you should look into, especially with a story of perseverance like that!

@reedpeterson6512 9 месяцев назад

As someone else mentioned, Norifumi Shima should be a candidate for inclusion as well. Akio Shimizu (of the legendary band Anthem) is another one. Maybe not quite as fast as some of the others mentioned here, but still very fast and very precise. Very melodic shredding. As for the ladies, Miyako and Midori from Lovebites, Toki and Yoshi from Aldious, Saki from Mary's Blood, Rie a.k.a. Suzaku, Halca (Haruka) from Asterism, and Yuki from D_Drive are no slouches themselves. And, of course, there is the perpetually cheerful Li-sa-X. (And there are more where those came from.)

@neoclassicalfanatic8416 8 месяцев назад

Syu is one of the greatest shredders of all time tbh He's the complete package,a good composer,a scary guitarist and has one of the best sense of melody I've seen in any guitarist. Many people don't like the music style he plays because it can sound cheesy sometimes But in my opinion,in the modern guitar scene,syu is unparalleled, not just in Japan.

@PLOT_Vorpalkitty 10 месяцев назад

Takayoshi has a lot of Yngwie in his style. Nice to see a real ESP, nothing wrong with LTD, but real ESP guitars are insane! SYU is quick, damn! Definately Paul Gilbert influence there, but more original style in there too! Kelly Simonz, more Malmsteen influence - They must love Yngwie as much in Japan as I do in the US 💛. Yo Onityan reminds me of Michael Angelo Batio - he looks like it's being played on fast forward - pretty amazing! Lot of finger strength there and a long stretch.

@LoePenzz 9 месяцев назад

My review of this, no offense if y disagree: - Syu definitely the best overal, he's all about complete package shred, slow, melodic, mimic/ekspresion, high control, timing, etc. He's not only cares just about guitar but has big responsibility as composer & take his band into the top game in the business. (Honorably mention Akira Takasaki of Loudness, who share the same duty as him). - Takayoshi Ohmura, I've find there's kinda similarity playing style with Syu with less emotional mimic, slow, melody. But he has way lighter responsibility than him. - Kelly Simmons, kinda lack of originality. Sounds like cover guitarist. 90% of his style playing other guitarist style with rarely improve within own style. His performance with Kamijo were better than in this clip, got his own style shine. - The number 2 & 1. Typical your nonsense circus guitar player. I'm tired seeing this type of guitarists, especially there's a lot of bedroom & YT guitarists doing similar in the same path. They should be in notable band/backing band musician instead showing this one prominent style.

@bits-bytes 10 месяцев назад

1st of all kudos. I will never read this technical level. But I also have to say, not everything that's technically possible is really enjoyable. I am missing feelings, emotions, something that really touches heart & soul. This is pure technique and by this a little boaring. You listen to it onc, are impressed, but thats it. After reaching a certain level of maturity you will hopefully discover, that it is better to subordinate yourself to the higher goal of wanting to deliver a piece that is worth listening to, and that is usually not possible with a pure soloist mentality when everyone wants to be the most beautiful, fastest, loudest.

@semiemi 4 месяца назад

Yeah, it's almost like who can play the fastest. That doesn't sound good to me. I enjoy more melodic playing. But it is called "shredding" so maybe that's why we are seeing these types of guitarist.

Personal opinions aside, Midori and Miyako are as good as any on or off the list, however as far as a harmonising duo, I don't know of any other, past or present, who could match their synchronised shredding, slow and melodic, fast and technical, they seem to have mastered to the point of perfection.

I agree with your choices of #1 and #2. Their physicality of long skinny hard fingers, like Eddie Van Halen, but even skinnier, sets them up perfectly for shredding. Their scales or licks that they play when their hands are stretched way out wide are what sound the best. You can get the same note on 2 strings that way, and get way more illusion of speed. Other than that, I think shredding is BORING. They sounded the best when they were not shredding.
