    ALR is the best guitarist walking the earth right now. No one compares. He puts so much emotion into his solos, and his whammy bar techniques and scale runs are unbeatable. Saw KD in Chicago November '15, best concert I've ever been to in my damn life! Was in awe the whole time! Mike Wead was an excellent complement to the band, and the bassist and drummer were thundering the building!

    HAHA!! This so awesome! I can't believe someone put this guitar battle together Two of the most obscure yet two of my favorite guitar players of all time. I saw Kane Roberts with Cooper on the Raise Your Fist and Yell tour and just love him. Sadly Almost no one knows he exists. Andy is hands down the better of the two. There's really no question, but Kane is an extremely tasty guitarist. Constrictor Album is his best work IMO.
    Andy La Roque should be on the top of every guitar lovers list but again, few know of him outside of the metal world. More well know than Kane for sure. This is great to get these two guys out there some more!!!

      At this point in time there's thousands upon thousands of brilliant guitarists who aren't in the industry or at least not in the spotlight that could hold the title of "best". I love metal but for God's sake go watch a master level flamenco player, a bluegrass monster or any number of eight finger wonders and suddenly the line of technical ability gets towed out into no man's land. As far as tasty licks and songwriting chops go, consider how many independent artists are only releasing their music via Soundcloud and Bandcamp. There's literally thousands upon thousands of hidden gems that if given exposure could be the next monumental thing.

    I love the Alice Cooper stuff from Raise your first and yell especially with Kane, and I don't like all of King Diamonds stuff, but I've always been a fan of Andy's playing. These are two guitarists, along with Pete Blakk that i could never play like.
    Kane has a very unique style which is good, but I don't care much for it, it sounds a bit to mechanical for me for lack of a better term.
    I like Andy's choices of notes and scales and use of the whammy bar. Everyone gives Brad Gillis credit for that style, I don't know who actually used it first, but I just like Andy's stuff.

    I don't think they could be compared. Kane is a "commercial success" created by big label records (just like Alice Cooper and everybody that surrounded him), whereas Larocque is a heavy metal genius from Sweden. Kane Roberts has a very commercial, run-of-the-mill style whereas Andy lives on the edge. When it comes to technique I don't think Kane can hold a candle to Andy's solos.
    Also, the two solos (one from Sleepless Nighs and the other from Welcome home) are not played by Larocque.but Pete Blakk or maybe I'm terrible wrong here.

He’s the type of guitar player that from a few licks and phrases you can tell who he is like a Stevie Ray Vaughan, Zakk, Malmsteen, Eddie Van Halen, Tosin and even Kerry King.
