Dude YOU REALLY hail from SERBIA ... ALL HAIL BALKANS (Bulgaria here , and no - I do consider Serbians FRENS, fuk the idiots of the past history that made us dislike eachother)
This made me think of "Panic At The Gates Between All That Remains Bleeding Through The Eyes Of The Dead From Autumn To Every Time I Lay Dying In Flames At The Disco...Stick." ...from part of a Psychostick song. Lol.
@Adam Bailey I don't know enough theory to explain in better detail, but regardless of tuning maaany popular "core" riffs hinge on the notes found on the 5th, 7th and 8th frets of your E-A-D strings
@grimlok3487 it's the first 3 notes of a minor scale. In drop C if you 578 on the G string, it's C D Eb which plays nice with chugging on the C string.
Yep my big 4 were Parkway Drive, All that Remains, Killswitch and As I Lay dying. Killswitch is probably the only band that still sounds remotely like themselves lol
Trying to get those fucking sounds made me quit playing. I watched several Tutorials only to find out that I'm just too stupid for that shit. So I smashed my guitar and got on with my life.
I'm currently at the stage where I can get them somewhat reliably but not after playing anything longer before. So I play 15 nice ones and then okay two regular bars and just can't get one at the end of that. It's a painful process. Still have some hope though.
it feels like the central CORE (badum tss) subgenre of metal. Like when people think of metal this should be the center of the spectrum at coordinates (0,0) imo
At the gates were the originators of this style. So if you like that you’ll definitely love the genre of “Gothenburg Melodic Death Metal”. Since metalcore was spawned out of a reaction to that scene.
@@onurcanbeyli3093 it’s a trick where you use your thumb to “graze” the string after you pick it and it gives you that sound. I tried for a long time to understand it but once it clicked I turned into a long lost killswitch member.
Because in order to play it, you alternate between palm-muting the open 6th string, and playing frets 5 7 and 8 on the 5th string. At least that's in drop tuning. If you play in standard (more common in melodeath than in metalcore) then it's 7-8-10.
Sounds so much like early Bullet For My Valentine, my favorite era of bullet. Spot on for early metalcore, 2010s metalcore incorporated synthesizers too!
