Rod & Gab : Metal / Flamenco??

Hey Chordians,

For those of you that appreciate some good acoustic guitar music, I highly recommend checking out Rodrigo y Gabriela. Simply great rhythms and melodies from this duo. Their style is kind of a hybrid version of Latin & Jazz music with a Metal influence.

What really got to me is Gabriela's rhythmic guitar skills. Her precision and speed are really something. It's inspired me to start learning some spanish guitar techniques. Right now, I'm learning how to do triplets, so if anyone has some advice for those, it would be greatly appreciated .

Here are some samples:

Enjoy,
