  • Hi GMC'ers, Lian here. Time has come: Power Metal Concept Pt.II, based on bands like Stratovarius, Helloween and many many others. Here we'll see how to make a complete song in the Power Metal style in 3 parts/lessons.

    You must check Power Metal Concepts Pt. I out before start to learn this.

    This is just one of many forms or structures that you can find in a song. So, this is just an example. Also you can compose or create your Power Metal Songs with this concept or following no rule.

    Techniques we'll use here are: Power Chords, Palm Muting, Octaves, Slides and Vibrato.

    The Key is A minor.
    Scales we'll use are: A minor, A Harmonic minor,

    This P.M. Concept try to show you different parts of a song. We have intros, chorus, solos, but how can we put all the parts into a song? This help you to understand how.
