Are Guitar Solos Back?


On a run this week I was listening to The Hold Steady's new album when what should I hear but a guitar solo. A real, 1980's power-metal guitar solo. Actually, two songs had them. Is the long-lost art of the guitar solo, lost since Nirvana killed it, back?

Has Guitar Hero had anything to do with this?

Most importantly, is this a good thing?
