All of the powerchords from A to G.

In this lesson I cover the old school Thrash Style of one of the Big Four, along with Metallica, Slayer and Megadeth - band called Anthrax.

Opeth incorporates many styles of music from folk to jazz in their metal. As well as clean and acoustic passages. We will look at Octaves, trickier riffs, the tritone powerchord, which is basically a powerchord but with an added flat 5 interval.

This rock 'n roll solo is a scary mix of artificial harmonics, two-note-per-srting speed picking and double stops. You will often find that over an A5 powerchord it is common to play the note A (also called the root note) or the note E (called the "fifth" - when played over A). This could be described as an arpeggio approach - which simply mean playing the same note as in the backing chord.
