I'm surprised no one here has came across this girl or hasn't brought her up here. Kind of interesting. Says shes the first 7 string female guitarist in Metal. Is that true? I have no idea. She plays really good, but she could use some help on the vocal part. Her screams remind me of David Difeis (sp?) from Virgin Steele, where they sound a little too over the top. Anyway check out these 2 videos. One is her debut video for a song called Drop Out. Lyrics sound really stupid but its kind of catchy. From her other videos I think she has better songs than that. The other is a cover of Paranoid. I actually like what she did with Paranoid especially in the chorus part with the key changes sounded spooky. What do ya think? If you don't like her at least shes not bad to look at with the sound off.

Not bad. Someone needs to set up a steel cage shred-off smack down between her and the Great Kat.

Steve Vai played a 7-string guitar. Meshuggah play 8-string guitars. Matt Pike from High On Fire plays a 9-string guitar.

Girls have the same number of fingers as guys, so that by itself doesn't impress me.

Really great young guitarist! That guitar is hideous looking. She makes up for it I reckon.

That cover of Paranoid is HORRIBLE. Tony Iommi should smack her upside the head.
As for her own song...it made me chuckle, needed something good to laugh at today.

Really? I like how she changed up the song. Thats probably my least favorite Sabbath song because its so boring and way too repetitive.
She has a lot of maturing to do with her song writing but again how many metal bands are writing these really powerful and meaningful lyrics nowadays?

It's only 2 minutes long, not long enough be either boring or overly repetitive. It's a classic guitar intro and a monster riff. The stripped down to the essentials approach of Sabbath is one of the things that makes them so great.
This chick's version is a text-book example of how many metal musicians tend to over-play, over-complicate and over-arrange everything.
Adding all the excess crap to a track like Paranoid is akin to buying a beautiful steak...and then drowning it with a cup of ketchup and cheap steak sauce...it ruins the flavor.

How old is that young lady? Maybe 19-25 tops? Anybody that's actually learned an instrument or attempted to, knows how much time she has obviously put in to that instrument for such a young age. On that alone, those two songs are impressive.
Would/could I listen to an entire album of that? No. But I still think she's amazing. You'll spend your whole life learning/mastering guitar, drums, piano or whatever the instrument is.
