@@ChaseThePinballWizard yes, Black Sabbath- Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath) is one of my favorite Black Sabbath songs, especially on the album Black Sabbath
@@creepysplatter9260 yeah it all depends on placement and how you use them in a song for sure. I'm a doom metal musician and theres many tropes in that genre I cant get enough of. Sabbath paved the way and i show my love for that by writing riffs that take inspiration from the really good stuff they've done that I enjoy
A trope and a cliché are totally different concepts. Tropes are things that people use to define a genre. A cliché is an idea that used to be a novelty, but it got so overused that people associate with uninspired/generic. For instance when Michael Jackson released "black or white" there was a breakdown where he started rapping for one bar; that got copied so many times it became a cliché.
I really really love it when content creators have a promo that actually correlates to their content. Thanks Bradley!!! I’m gonna impress my step mom with these
And when you string them all together like this you still manage to get a pretty fresh prog song, demonstrating why genre roulette is one of the best songwriting tricks anyone could learn.
1:16 Iron Priest 1:26 Necrophagist 1:36 In Flames 1:42 very Exodus-ish more than Metal.. 1:52 Morbid Angel 2:02 Pantera's Far Beyond Driven 2:14 Mortuary Drape 2:24 obvious 2:33 Dream Rush 2:43 Forbidden 2:57 Dillinger Escape Plan 3:04 Fear Factory 3:11 Killswitch Trivium 3:17 Meshuggah 3:30 Mekong Delta 3:38 Suicidal Tendencies 3:51 Nevermore 3:57 Cacophony 4:10 Mid 90'2 Slayer 4:16 Trivium again 4:22 Voivod 4:29 every single OSBM band 4:42 Lamb Of God So what CLICHE could be missing? I would say of course the classic Glam Metal riffing, then Death's classic harmonic style (Spirit Crusher) and maybe some kind of very slow, drone-inspired riffs. Actually very hard to find some becuase you probably sum them up all!
@@BradleyHallGuitar hard agree. Especially for the early priest sounding stuff you recalled with “driving rift”. If youre gonna make Tuff metal, you pretty much have to use cliche riffs lol
Man, I've just discovered your channel and Im not gonna lie.....I've been watching every single video of yours the whole day. And I still cant believe how damn well you play guitar, and you still trolling as you do it. Keep it coming mate! Cheers from Argentina!
How did you miss the palm muted constant 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 both in the slow (like Seek and Destroy's verse) and fast (FUCKING SLAYER) versions???
Some of the bands that came to mind watching this 1:15 Iron Maiden 1:35 Avenged Sevenfold 1:42 Metallica 2:02 Gojira 2:15 Slayer (Seasons in The Abyss) 2:26 Black Sabbath 2:57 SOAD (???) 3:10 Alter Bridge (??) 3:38 Motorhead 3:58 Racer X 4:43 Opeth
Bless me, I thought this video was just a super-long ad for that LED fret/app thingy... Anyways, great vid! These "clichés" were all great! I particularly liked the pick rake one.
One little trick I learned from the old guitarists in Cradle of Filth to sound a little less generic is to split power chord parts between two guitars - ie play single note riffs harmonized in fifths. It’ll sound thinner than playing conventional two note power chords on both guitars, but then you create a greater sense of dynamics if you the transition to a heavier part of a song and have both guitars switch to playing/doubling the full power chord.
the fret zealot is super fun to use, and i have had 3 because it actually made learning significantly easier for me. but they are really fragile and only last a couple months at most, especially if you regularly use your thumb for fretting and muting.
I had to look up what pedal note meant...cool that I got to learn something new from your video! I'm a long time drummer but fairly new at guitar, been trying to teach myself for the last year or so. I love coming up with new riffs and playing around until I find a nice sounding chord. Even though I've not had any formal tuition on how to approach writing riffs it's impossible not to let my riffs be influenced by the metal I listen to. Open string phrygian is one that's crept in before. Also another cliche - the metalcore minor scale 0 5 7 8 stuff - whatever the guitar is tuned to those frets seem to have some gravitational pull if I'm feeling metalcore!
ill be honest, that fret zealot thing is actually a pretty good idea for beginners If I ever decide to Re-Learn guitar but right handed, ill definitely check it out
1:16 Old school driving: Judas priest 1:34 Harmonized Pedal note riff: reminds me of some old in flames TBH 2:25 Sabbath worship: very nice, sabbath + 7 nation army! 2:34 Proggy rush worship: I hear quite a bit of dream theater 2:43 Fast power metal pedal note riff: Iron savior maybe? Nice riff :) 3:12 Open string phrygian: wow, nice. Trivium-esque or maybe killswitch? 3:38 Punky thrash: I definitely hear motorhead in this :)
When I saw that there was am ad, I was like.. ugh, another skillshare sponsorship, I guess I'll watch it to support Brad... Holy smoke! Those things on the fretboard look super interesting O-O
