modal chord progressions in metal??
I donĀ“t understand what you mean, can you tell us a song for example.
i dont know how to use chord progressions in metal, like making a chord progression that makes stand out the mode you are using.
Usually chord progressions used in metal are either Pentatonic based or Harmonic minor based. Thats big generalization but in Neo Classical Metal thats pretty much whats out there.
Harmonic minor is mostly used as in I minor V dominant 7 , but in between you can use all the other chords.
Here is couple of examples of chord progressions in Harmonic minor
I minor IV minor bVI major V dominant 7 or major = A minor D minor F major E7 or E major
Now lets say you want 5th mode of Harmonic minor (Phrygian dominant) then you use
I dominant 7 bII major bVII major I dominant 7 = E7 F major D minor E7
That should make sense if your know your Harmonic minor theory and harmony !
