10 Most Unique Guitarist In Alternative Rock Music

10. Jonny Greenwood - Radiohead

Radiohead have become the epitome of 21st Century rock, never afraid to move with the times, and always ahead of the curve. The group has transcended the constraints of your typical rock band and morphed into a musical force of nature, unshackled by genre.

Thom Yorke is often considered the driving force of the group, but without the help of the musical wizard, Jonny Greenwood, Radiohead's sound would be lacking. Greenwood has described himself as the band's "arranger" - the one who puts all the pieces together to make art out of chaos.

When it comes to the guitar, Greenwood certainly follows a less-is-more approach. His playing weaves through the melodies, serving the song rather than trying to dominate it. That's not to say he doesn't leave his mark though. Greenwood's approach creates layers of textured sound, helped in no small part by the assortment of effects he's prone to using.

He's come along way since Radiohead's early days - when they were your more conventional alt-rock group - your not likely to get a flashy solo from this guy these days, ambient melody takes precedent over spectacle every time.
