It would be very easy to categorise 30 Seconds To Mars as actor Jared Leto’s plaything, but it’s pretty clear from the depth of the Californian band’s emo rock that he means business. While shredders might sneer at the absence of virtuosic displays, Jared and guitarist Tomo Milicevic weave delay-drenched guitar landscapes that are both inspiring and perfectly executed. Whether you’re into Deftones, The Cure or U2, there’s something to be learned there.
