Learning “The Kids Aren’t Alright” by the Offspring

I’d love any and all feedback on this. If you see anything other than what I’ve mentioned in the video please feel free to voice that as well. I’ll note, I am still working on the palm mutes. I think I’m doing pretty good for the most part, but I do have some oopsies occasionally now

Great work! I love this song a lot and I was totally singing along! Before I even got to the end of the video what you are talking about is exactly what I was going to talk to you about. Because the song is faster it's going to be substantially easier for you to alternate pick it like they do. Great work girl!
 
Thanks Jak ! I was leaning towards the alt pick but it’s still super awkward for me and I definitely need to work on it !
 
Excellent job! I think with practice the alt picking would be more natural. You would have to move your hand a lot less than just down stroking, so the rhythm would be easier to keep.

Holy crap I thought you were alternate picking at first!!! That's some pretty good speed for downstrokes! I think you could give james hetfield a run for his money! Sounds good I wanna practice this song now looks fun!
