Friday Morning Metal – Unlocking the Truth

Sometimes I’ll watch guitar training videos on Youtube, and it’s like Herman Lee teaching pentatonic stuff, or Skwisgaar Skwigelf teaching about sweeps picks. And then I want to put my guitar away forever because I am bad at it. And now there is a band of tweens, Unlocking the Truth, who make me want to hand them all my musical equipment and become an accountant.

These kids started out playing in Times Square, next to the freaky Elmos & whatnot, and now they have a record deal and are playing some solid metal. It’ll be great to see how they progress from here, since they’re already better than 90% of the dreck that’s come out of the US metal scene in the past 10 years.
