Members Rear Naked Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I upstroke all of them...and use my thumb instead of a pick too! now you're being ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Detonator Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I'm 50% Swedish and can play it at half tempo. It doesn't seem impossible, but I'd probably need to practice it for a few months to play it with any kind of confidence. You have to take a whole different approach to playing this type of stuff. Very relaxed and short picking strokes with a ton of gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gain_Junkie93 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I can play some of the riffs but then again I'm a djentin' mother{censored}er. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thinkpad20 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 OK so after playing around with it, I can do the 3 part (the intro and first verse) but once it goes into 5 I just get confused. It's not a matter of endurance at all really (never felt myself getting tired), just a matter of staying on course with the pattern... once you get off it's practically impossible to get back on again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members knucklefux Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 i don't have the stamina to gallop like that for very long, so i don't even bother trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cap'n Ahole Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I went in & tried it just now.. Brutal... I could DO the rhythm, but not quite that fast & just couldnt maintain it... That single b4 the triple really {censored}s with me.. Something to work on I guess. I do enjoy a challenge.. . .

Members rushtallica Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Well...the opening picking pattern is impossible. IMPOSSIBLE I tell you. AAAAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH! {censored}! Don't feel alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Exocaster Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I can't play it at all. The other guitar player in my band busts it out at practice occasionally. I don't know if he's doing it wrong or if he can play it the whole way through or what, but he does play some of it. He utterly pwns me as a metal rhythm player. Very relaxed and short picking strokes with a ton of gain. See above- he's all economy of motion, Dual Rec and EMGs. I pick with my forearm like a Neanderthal, vintage-flavored pickups, Stiletto and Greenbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thinkpad20 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Nobody claims they can do it without clips. My thread=my rules. OK, just for you, here's a take I just recorded... my first and only "take" and it's just the rhythm pattern (a little bit of change in the left hand but not much). About 2:40 solid. As you can see it's the tightness that's at issue, not the endurance... though I must admit that my arm was getting a little tired by the end there. But I could have gone for longer, I just noticed I was off-beat and couldn't fix it http://www.soundclick.com/bands/page_songInfo.cfm?bandID=803641&songID=7266433 Also note that my 7-string is tuned down to G# for some other stuff I was playing..

Members oddone Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 I can play the gist of it. For me its not the speed but remembering all the variations and {censored} that gets hard. I get lazy... Oh and I cant play bits simply because I dont have a low F string (will soon hopefully). When I first got the pattern down though it was a minor {censored}ing miracle, i was pretty pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members oddone Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Not sure if this was mentioned but live they dont play the full song, they stop at the clean part in the middle. Its also the only song tomas the drumer uses triggers on the kicks for. I saw them play it live when they were warming up before the sydney show to. was awesome =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Exocaster Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Hey, Mr. Thinkpad- I have a question about your SD2.0 settings... do you use the built-in compressor and transient designer at all? 'Cause I like how your kick and snare punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thinkpad20 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Could you poast teh drum track? Sure, though it's just a loop. Gimme a sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thinkpad20 Posted January 23, 2009 Members Share Posted January 23, 2009 Hey, Mr. Thinkpad- I have a question about your SD2.0 settings... do you use the built-in compressor and transient designer at all? 'Cause I like how your kick and snare punch. I use EQ and Comp (built-in) on both of them. I use one of the presets for the bass drum; guillotine I think. Also for the snare a preset, but I can't remember which one. Sometimes I take off the compression on the snare as it can sound kinda thud-like.
