No complete song this weekend, just an intro.

Everything is the Dean again, I'm giving the Schecter a rest for awhile.

Or it's because I broke a string on it. Whichever.

You need to finish this one...Lots of potential.

I like it. I would personally reccommend trying a little something with the bass at the beginning instead of just hittting the C. Maybe do a couple of little climbs or something. Maybe the riff you hit when it comes in distorted?

Thanks guys! I hear one change that I'll make this weekend (going to shorten it by 4 bars). Plus, I have to come up with the rest of the tune! The end chug always goes into a Master of Puppets riff (Master! Master! Where's the dream that I've been after?) in my head, so I'll have to be careful not to end up ripping it off. The bass will change with the next riff, but I wanted it to sound kind of like a bell tolling for the intro.

Still working on this one...it's being a PITA. Got a nice chorus worked out, & redid the distorted riff. The posted version is 2 heavy guitars panned left & right, with the arpeggio line as a third track down the middle. That didn't work with anything else I recorded afterwards, though, so I kept the left channel track, ditched the right & center tracks, & redid the arpeggio part panned hard right.

So that's going OK. The tough part is, I came up with a pretty cool verse riff that doesn't work in the context of this clip! rrrgggggghhhh I really want to use it, but it just sounds like ass. Going to have to save it for something else. I think the issue is as big as I build the intro riff up, I'm not getting anything to work well after it. Dammit dammit dammit!

Oh well. The pains of art, eh?
