Easiest A7X song to learn?

[Ben Thorpe]

Hey, just wondering which A7X songs you think are the easiest to learn, as I haven’t yet had a go at learning an entire A7X song. Many Thanks!

Including the solos probably So Far Away even though getting the feel right in the solos can ben a bit hard. Also, I wont see you tonight part 1 isnt That hard

 

[Noah Berends]

Compared to the rest of the album, God Damn is fairly “easy”. So Far Away, Gunslinger, and Shepard of Fire have some easier riffs, too. Easy is subjective though, since everyone’s at different levels. But these are some of the riffs that I found to be easier to learn compared to other songs.

 

[Filip Tomiša]

Shepherd of fire or unholy confessions if you have the speed in your strumming hand

 

[Jeremy Baszczuk]

Critical Acclaim would also be a good one.

 

[Ana Psuturi]

Seize the day is not too hard either.

 

[Tory Capman]

Brompton Cocktail was fairly easy and fun

 

[D K]

Unholy confessions was one of the first a7x songs I learned.

 

[Parth Tusham]

But still the easiest of all is the solo of afterlife and scream

 

[Matt Wildman]

I wish

 

[Ben Thorpe]

solo of afterlife and scream? I can do that with my eyes closed!

 

[Jak Angelescu]

This seriously depends on your skill level. If you’re just starting out I don’t think any of them constitute as “easy” except for Tonight The World Dies, So Far Away and Dear God… stuff like that. You probably could do Planets at a beginner-ish stage too, I think? Learning their songs from beginning to end IS really hard because you say to yourself “Oh, I got this. I can do this” and then one of them bastards will randomly throw in some crazy ass chord or tricky lead part for .05 seconds of the song that takes you a year to get right :/

 

[Ekrem Taha Ünlü]

Obviously “So Far Away”

 

[Kaylie V]

so is “dear god” good for a beginner to start learning?

 

[idssdi]

Dear God really depends on which parts you are learning

 

[D K]

You can always try to start learning a song. Even if it’s too hard it’s a good exercise and you can always come back to it later when you’re better.

 

[Kaylie V]

thanks guys i’ll try to start learning some of it and get better at playing.

I’ve been trying to learn St James all the way through. For me, a real challenge, although for some maybe it’s easy. Very nuanced palm muting and sweep-ish picking (not formal sweeping, but in order to do it up to speed you have to do the picking in a sweeplike manner). I love the song, so figured I’d learn it! Getting close!

 

[idssdi]

Ooh yeah st James is a great song! Never attempted learning it though

if you nail the pull-off speed, you gotta love Hail to the King.
