Just a pretty simple riff i made up. Sort of got the idea from a Lamb of God song, but I don't remember which one. Let me know what y'all think.

  • You need a metronome. Cool riff

  • @macaframa12 Thanks dude! I sped up on purpose toward the beginning of the vid but I also do need a metronome. I'm not good at staying in time at all.

  • @LSfan17 Yeah everybody struggles somewhat with timing when their is no beat. Try more downpicking insteead of alternate (idk if you do or not), of course i cant downpick gallops or anything but i can downpick fast as fuck and it really does help with timing/smoothness in the riff. Like the opening riff to Condemned (wich i learned from your video thankyou) I downpick that whole thing and its alot smoother and more precise. I think you might be able to find an online-metronome though man.

  • @macaframa12 That's some really good advice. My downpicking speed isn't too great but it is definitely easier to stay in time with that than alternate picking. This riff is way too fast for me to downpick but i'll keep that in mind for other stuff. Hey man, i'm glad you liked the Condemned vid! That's awesome. I have used an online metronome before which helped quite a bit. Anyways peace out and thanks for the input!

  • @LSfan17 No problem. Btw where you from? And you should keep puttin up more riffs.

  • @macaframa12 I'm from Kansas but i'm going to school out of state right now. I have a few more riffs I could put up some time soon, thanks for your comments.
