I've just realized how much the music I've listened to over the years has effected my own playing style. Listening to songs from bands that I called my favorites, like Armor For Sleep, Edison Glass, and Acceptance. Finding little pieces that I didn't even know where there a few years ago. And to my amazement, these things that I'm starting to find in the music, are some of the things that literally MAKE my style. Did my brain pick them out subconsciously?
I would have to credit the bands previously listed as the ones who shaped the majority of my musical style today.
Of course, I have to give credit to my extensive metal background also! Haha. I honestly thing that having a heavy background makes you treat all slower stuff more like ballads, so they are more, dare I say, "epic". Just look at Secondhand Serenade!
