Don't you have something else than your songs coming from nowhere ?!") Could someone tell me what songs I can start with ? I'd like to play them fully, from beggining to the end. The nearer it goes to metal side the better it is Thank you PS : This is pretty ironic that I come in the Practice Room forum since I'm getting bored by exercises ahaha You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Just pick any metal song you like - the chances are it will be made of mostly power chords. If you can play a power chord and single note lines then you play most Iron Maiden songs. Symphony of Destruction - Megadeth ? For Whome the Bell Tolls - Metallica ? What do you like ? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

For Whome the Bell Tolls - Metallica ? What do you like ? Symphony Of Destruction is heavy I like it and its riffs are quite easy but when it comes to the solo... ^^' I also play sometimes Countdown to Extinction which is really easy to play too. For Whom The Bell Tolls, didn't know that song, shame on me ! One of the easiest riff I've met so far. The melodic lines make it goes so epic ! QUOTE (Jouve @ Jan 22 2013, 12:00 PM) Judas Priest - The Ripper Edguy - Paradise There are lots of them! The Ripper is pretty cool but it sounds a bit old to me, I will give it a try though ! Paradise ! For god's sake, this is what metal is all about ! The beggining is just AWESOME (but I can't play it... this is wayyyy to fast). The chord progression near 1:50 is brilliant ! I'll defintely try to play this little pearl ! QUOTE (Slavenko Erazer @ Jan 22 2013, 12:37 PM) Sick and Destroy by y0ou know who Jump in the fire too 2 mins too midnight -- I maiden Breaking the low - Judas Priest Seek And Destroy, yeah, really easy to play and powerful ! But the solo once more is not affordable to me :/ Jump In The Fire, the main riff is pretty difficult to play. (Ok I only gave it a 10min shot but anyway ) Cool song, didn't know this one either ! 2 minutes to midnight, to to ta to to ta to to ta ta ta ! That's what it's all about ahah, though sometimes it's hard to move your fingers to another chord that fast ! Breaking the low, I like listening to it, but I don't enjoy at all to play it...

I have never learnt a single solo fully. It hasn't really got sense, because the solo is the time for a guitarist to shine and show his talents, not to mimic someone else. Just learn the main melodies(if there are such), analize the style and create or improvise something that fits. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I've spent some times analyzing it for a Ben's collab ^^ I don't agree with you on some points, if it sounds good, then it's good enough not to be changed right ?

Thanks for your submission Well, if it sounds that good then yes It just makes less benefit for your playing, in my oppinion. I always try to avoid to copy my fave players because I already sound like them too much, so maybe that's the reason Stay metal! Here's another one for you, most probably the only Blind Guardian song that can be considered easy You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Here's another one for you, most probably the only Blind Guardian song that can be considered easy Blind Guardian - Follow The Blind Ahaha I'd like to sound like someone else, that'd mean that I play well I enjoy a lot listening to Blind Guardian, I can't tell if I could play this one or not since there are no tabs on the net (I mean guitar pro tabs). The riffs seem to be quite easy to play, but the solos aren't affordable at all - way too fast and way too many bends QUOTE (Slavenko Erazer @ Jan 22 2013, 07:31 PM) isn't this his song? Rammstein - Pussy Ahaha didn't know this one ahahahah Those lyrics are awesome ahahah QUOTE (AK Rich @ Jan 22 2013, 07:47 PM) I present to you the easiest metal song and solo of all time Judas Priest - Living After Midnight This is not my favorite song but seeing being play live, it doesn't look so hard, the solo is easy too QUOTE (Gabriel Leopardi @ Jan 22 2013, 08:32 PM) I remember starting with these ones... Iron Maiden - The Evil That Men Do Iron Maiden - Wasting Love Guns 'N Roses - Welcome To The Jungle The beggining of Wasting Love is sooooo cool !! But those "one note per string" don't fit well with me The last one is also way to tricky for me Thanks guys now I have to learn them ahah But I'll have some known songs in my playing routine now !

Two old school and two new school bands that have relatively easy songs, generally. Hope that helps! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
