New Nita Strauss

[NoodleFace]

Imagine being Nita, finding this thread and going "sigh I bet they're just gonna talk about my tits"... Then she sees it's just a bunch of dudes talking about how big her shits are

 

[Crungy]

The shit discussion surprised me more than talk of her appearance, though I thought people would move beyond that.

I think she's very talented and honestly think she should write for In Flames lol

 

[nightflameauto]

Pretty darned cool song. That procedurally generated city panning around in the background looks like something out of the eighties too. Bonus points.

The rest of this thread pretty much sums up all internet guitarists the second they find out a musician is female. Though I do have to say the literal shit talk was a nice twist on our shallowness.

Also, because it's always funny. If a person is both a vegan AND a crossfitter? Which one do they mention first to people when they meet them?

 

[sylcfh]

When did she become vegan?

She has fish and eggs in her tour bus fridge...

 

[Siggevaio]

Could do without the unnecessary intro but other than that it's pretty cool. Her instrumentals are pretty mediocre so I think she's better off writing with/for a singer.

Guess what...I don't have any problem with Jennifer Batten, Lari Basilio, Nili Brosh, Kaki King (monster)...all way more talented than Nita.
I think Nita is good, still, live she botches stuff I haven't seen botched by drunken as f' Finnish players...her performance at Wrestlemania some years ago was cringe fest, for example.

Do I think a man with the same amount of talent would play for Alice Cooper? Nope
I mean...why didn't uncle Alice pick up Rabea Massaad as his guitarist?

Rabea looks like he takes MONDO DUKES for one

See what I did thar...
Even talented males takes the shit
At least, for me, it's not because Nita is a woman.

 

[Flappydoodle]

Strange stuff
I think Courtney Cox is immensely more talented than Nita.
And I'm not only speaking about technique, I'm speaking about feel, taste, vibrato, playing in the pocket...Nita is either mechanical or she's often out of tune with bends, bad vibratos if any...
Still Nita has the big gig.
And I'm not mentioning juggs, but gig, even because Courtney has bigger ones in the latter case scenario

Interesting. I haven't really seen Courtney play anything good. I've seen her doing a demo of her Caparison signature, and she was really bad

As I said.
More talented than Nita.
I think both fall apart pretty fast when you remove them from their confort zone (like 80% of guitar youtubers perhaps)
None of the two girls stand close to Lari Basilio or Nili Brosh
Still I prefer Nita and Courtney to the girls of Love Bites that are very technically proficient but feel very soul less to me

 

[CTID]

man guitarists are sexist as hell, all this talk but no one's willing to take bets on how much dong Misha hangs? disgusting, frankly

I figured that's why they call him TriPod

 

[ramses]

When did she become vegan?

She has fish and eggs in her tour bus fridge...

And she doesn't look weak and unhealthy like all vegans.

I saw her open for Angel Vivaldi a few years ago, who's a super clean player, and she kinda stole the show. Never paid attention to her music before but it was a killer set

 

[USMarine75]

Nita + Anders. And it’s been a couple months so In Flames prob needs new members.

One of my fav shred instrumentals in the last 10 years.

Then again, so is this…

 

[wannabguitarist]

Oh yeah. Synapse is a killer album, and Serotonin is one of the best songs on it.

Looks like a new Nita song was released today:

I'm a sucker for melodic death metal and Anders' vocals so I'm a fan

EDIT: Didn't realize this was already posted 20 minutes ago

 

[gh0styboi]

Jesus, what even is this thread anymore...

Good song, she's a great player, and her stuff with Angel is awesome. I'll check out anything that involves Anders, and this didn't disappoint.

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Better than 90% of anything In Flames has done since Come Clarity, including a good majority of the last album.

 

[gh0styboi]

...Lari Basilio, Nili Brosh...

Great calls. Nili is so incredibly underrated, and Lari has (in my opinion) some of the best phrasing for any modern instrumental guitarist.
