I'm weeping from the sound. It might be fast but it's bloody awful.

It won't work for me :(

I officially blame the equipment not the playing :P
It's just a little too high-pitched for my liking, like Buckhead's stuff which is technically brilliant but grating on the eardrums never-the-less. :)

That's not fast. And it's awful for what it is. Neo-classical is ultimately pointless, and it's the same technique over and over and over again - no wonder people get so quick at it, there's bog-all else to do playing those scales!
To nit-pick even further...overdriven Ibanez guitars? C'mon, a baby chimp could play that stuff! Doesn't take a lot to make those minor scales into minor pentatonic scales, add a bit of chromatism, then we enter the world of blues which is much more interesting and expressive - i.e. actual music!
