Hi there, are you practicing? Good!
This time I´ve prepared a lesson based in some cool things I´ve heard from Nevermore! This band is awesome guys! If you like technical metal you´ll fall in love with Jeff Loomis style.
Well here I put some ideas that sound a little bit in their style, so I think you can learn from this some of their tricks.
Also, pay attention on drum lines if you want to understand how their compose their agressive songs.
Take this lesson step by step and have fun!
Used scales: E minor, C minor, A minor
Bar: 4/4
Tune Down: 1/2 step
TEMPO: 200 bpm
As some of you know, I use a POD xt to rec all my lessons. In my board you´ll find my presets ;)
On the other hand, here´re the settings for people who wants.

Remember: Same settings in other gear will produce a different sound, but, as we´ve talked at the forum, this could be cool for some members, so enjoy!
If you have any problems let me know. Take care.
