You know there are tons and tons of shredders, and things like that, but I wanted to do something a little different, so I incorporated different styles of music.

I think about everything before I do something, and I thought, \u2018Well, how will I get looked at and taken seriously?\u2019 I did something completely different that no one has done, because I didn\u2019t want to be another guitar player thrown in the pile.
