15 Best Guitar Solos Of The Decade (So Far)

5. Avenged Sevenfold - Coming Home (2:41)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YK0iQlKXxEk Another band who get way too much flak for what stems from an image problem (black nail varnish destroys careers - just ask Metallica's Kirk Hammett), Avenged have been battling uphill ever since. Come 2013's Hail to the King it was all to play for, and although all-round the songs aren't as big as what they needed to really capitalise on so much potential, near-end track Coming Home takes a few pages out of Iron Maiden's intro book, before spring-boarding off into their own trading guitar duel. Synyster Gates and Zacky Vengeance have always been extremely underrated guitarists when it comes to just how well they work together, and if you were waiting for a song to showcase exactly what it sounds like when two talented people are at the height of their careers, it's right here, for almost two glorious moments.
