    Hey guys !
    So, it’s been a while since I’ve learned any new songs. I’ve mostly been practicing scales and techniques but I need some new fun songs !
    I prefer to play rhythm.
    I have one song in mind I’m about to start learning (its a secret lol)
    But, I wanna know what are your favorite rhythms in standard tuning !
    .....and go !
    😃

    I don't really listen to many E-Standard songs... The only two songs that come to my mind are Buried Alive [Intro] and Nothing Else Matters .
    Oh, and EDEN - Rock and Roll
    Oh i forgot, Rammstein has some amazing rhythms in standard tuning!
    seriously? I did not know that ! That’s awesome ! Thanks !

    I think Most Rammstein is in drop D 🤔
    If Drop D is Not a Problem maybe try Sonne.

    Ids recommended me Albert King - Born under a Bad sign. Really easy rhythm Part but very fun to Play If you want Blues.
    Metallica - Enter Sandman would be my Suggestion for Metal
    I think Heaven Nor Hell by Volbeat is rather easy but I don't remember the Tuning right now

    You cant really go wrong with Jimi Hendrix and SRV but besides those
    Who did You Think I was by John Mayer trio
    Crazy train by Ozzy Osbourne
    Domination by Pantera
    Fucking hostile by Pantera
    Whole lotta love by Led Zeppelin
    Heartbreaker by Led Zeppelin
    Paperback Writer by The Beatles
    I want you(she's so heavy) by The Beatles

    There's a whole lot of deep purple and Rainbow which are in standard too

    AC/DC - Hells Bells or Highway To Hell, because good ol' Aussie Rock'n'Roll.

    Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls, good for practicing your chugging and has some simple little lead fills too.

    Alice In Chains - Rooster, mix of modified barre chords, power chords and single note riffs.
    Rooster is half step.down. everything slice in chains is half step. You probably could play it e standard tho. Your hammer.ons will be different thom
