JOIN THE DISCORD VIEW THREADDo you want another one Ed?Okay, so I've been gearing up for my bike race this week, which happened yesterday, so today is the first time I've really touched a guitar in a few days. The first thing this song taught me is that at this exact tempo, my hand synchronization was terrible. I could play the part a lot easier and cleaner both FASTER and SLOWER, but at this tempo, I struggled with it. That means I'll probably be learning the whole song.
This tune is, like most modern Trivium, on a 7 string in Drop Ab, but the main riff is on the B string, so I just worked it out on a Drop Db guitar and went for it. This was fun, and I do think I will wind up learning the whole song to get my sync better at this tempo. The melody Beaulieu plays under the chorus is awesome, and I want to dig into that, among much else in the song. Good choice!
Do you want another one?Finally got around to this, I struggled to get my alt picking up to speed so downpicked instead (still not quite fast enough which is why I didn't play along with the song). Because the intro is long, and basically the same riff repeated I did 2 reps each of the intro and verse riffs. Dropped a couple of clangers in the verse though.
Fun song to play, so I may continue with it, if for no other reason than working on my alt picking.
