Road Block

Normally this is where I would stop playing guitar, and not thinik about picking it up for another 16 years, but this is where I want to change. There is so much information out there. I am sufferring from information overload.
Here is my goal. I want to play Metal Rhythm Guitar. I would like my lessons to be structured around that.
So far I know how to play the beginning of "Am I Evil" from Metallica. I know a few basic power chords, some finger tapping. I like melodies, but my fingers are too slow, as well as my brain right now. As I stated in my intro post. My favorite bands are Three Days Grace, Chevelle, and Metallica (old Metallica, Master of Puppets days). Other influences Incubus, Filter, Awaken from The Damning Well really inspires me to play, Atomship, and Radio Head. If anyone can point me in the right direction, or have been where I am, and can provide some guidance. It would be much appreciated. I just don't want to play "Mary had a little lamb.", or "Kuumbiah".
I am not going to quit though. I did that enough in my life. So back to "Am I evil".

Hello

Hi,
I found this site by searching 'learn metal rhythm guitar", and this site came up with a sweet riff lesson. I finally picked up my guitar after 16 long years. I consider myself still a beginner. I know basic power chords, and a few riffs here and there. I want to play with feeling, If I play fast I want it to be with feeling, and same with slow. My favorite bands are Chevelle, and Three Days Grace. They inspired me to give my dream of play guitar another try. I really like the site, but very disappointed that you can't download any of the lessons. The finger tapping lesson took forever to play. It wasn't half way through the lesson, and a half hour went by. That's my only real complaint of the site. I am using a sprint mobile broadband card so it shouldn't be that slow. I am looking forward to getting better at guitar, and making some friends along the way. Peace.
