THE WORST GUITAR SOLO EVER

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009 at 10:00am by Axl Rosenberg

I started learning to play guitar when I was eleven. That was also the year I had my first guitar recital (which I realized even then wasn’t cool, but what was I gonna do, tell my parents to take the lessons I’d asked for and blow ‘em out their collective ass?). I probably sounded like I was playing with broken fingers, but everyone applauded when I was done because, well, I was eleven years old and it was my first time playing in front of people and that’s what you do when an eleven year old kid is showing some effort.

But why the fuck anyone would applaud for this is just way, way beyond me.

Actually, I think he’d sound better if someone broke his fingers. Certainly couldn’t hurt.

      Encore….HHmmmm.. Not a bad idea. I cant breathe. Laughing so hard. Must get oxygen. or stab sporks in ears. a;dsjkfieruwperivm. Help me please.

      BTW. he has ruined hats for anyone to wear on stage. The baseball hat has kind of become his logo(which is also the name of a gay/lesbian tv station fyi). Im not happy about that and neither is Mr. Townsend(pre shaved dome)

    That just got worse and worse.

    This guy sure isn’t doing himself any favours…

  3. Tim says:

    That was horrifying.

  4. Gary says:

    Is this one of the shredding videos that are all over youtube?

  5. Carter says:

    This has been around forever. I’m suprised it’s just showing up now on MS.
    Why’d they have to shoot dimebag and not this fuckwad

  6. Sacajawea says:

    You guys just don’t get it. He’s like the Picasso of shred.

  7. Sacajawea says:

    “Helen Keller could do better”

  8. TurdFerguson says:

    This gives me hope that i can be a no talented hack in a shitty band and still bang hot chicks!

  9. Alee says:

    “…that night, he re-invented the instrument…”

  10. Nick Antrim says:

    Fred Durst suck so bad cus he dissed bands out there that actually have talent. The 11-year old Axl could do it better

  11. It’s like watching Jimmy Page…

  12. Burton C. Bell's Forehead says:

    Wow, I only started learning to play a month ago and even I can do better than that.

  13. groverXIII says:

    One time my cat was walking around on my bass and it sounded better.

  14. This sums up this no talent bastard….

  15. dlux says:

    hahahaah sounds like one of those fake overdub mashups. brilliant!

  16. Nate says:

    Just wow. Who let this joker pick up a guitar? You KNOW his parents have their faces buried in their hands like “holy shit, why didn’t we get an abortion”

  17. This was painful. Remind me why I stopped listening to Anaal Nathrakh for this?

  18. You Don't Know Me says:

    The part at the beginning where he’s playing chords doesn’t sound bad. it’s the second half of the video where he’s trying to “shred” that he butchers the instrument. Fred Durst is a jackass and shouldn’t even be touching such an amazing instrument if that’s how bad he is.

  19. Superhans says:

    to be fair… i think he knows he is crap at playing guitar

  20. Fufkin says:

    Is that a PRS? Axl Rose plays one too. Great studio guitars but ney cool.

  21. no-ghost says:

    I ve farted better sounds, specially when I cup them.

  22. Brandon says:

    i can slap my d on the fretboard and make better sounds than that…

    and did anyone else notice it sounded JUST like everything else Limp Bizkit has ever done??

  23. I wonder what Wes thought of that.

  24. Rik says:

    Yeah, he’s just joking around, he knows he sucks. How is this even funny? Besides, this is from 2003 for fuck’s sake.

  25. Sammy says:

    I’ve seen this several times over the years and I’ve NEVER been able to figure out what he was doing/trying to prove/playing.

  26. vegan says:

    this is one of those vids that just like all masterpieces will stand the test of time

  27. DecrystallizingReason says:

    hahahahahahaha I just got done with a nice bong sesh and this gem is what you guys have waiting for me. there is no better site for stoners who love metal. funny as hell.

  28. Andy says:

    Sounds like something I would do if it were 3:00 in the morning on a Sunday and I was drunk and decided to pick up my guitar.

  29. Zombie(really) says:

    Fredcore…..

  30. Facebook User says:

    This can’t be real. I’m guessing this is labeled “Limp Bizkit shreds” on YouTube.

  31. Sean Pulatie says:

    This is ancient. Wow. Did Blabbermouth and Lambgoat not give you enough stories to rip off for today?

    Years after it happened, you managed to dig up a clip of Fred Durst messing around on a guitar, then put a one-line insult after it. Wow. Go you. It must be so hard to work for this website. I’m actually glad I didn’t win that damned contest. I can’t handle this kind of worksmanship.

    Here it is: Limp Bizkit was – is – a good band. A good BAND. What they lacked was a good frontman. They did manage to write some pretty decent metal, all things considered. There are far, far worse things out there.

    It has become so fucking stereotypical for metalheads to knock on Limp Bizkit and Metallica because they wrote some crappy songs and are multi-millionaires. Instead of spending so much energy and time on insulting what these bands have done, why not put that energy and time into keeping metal alive?

    Fucking sad……
