Fun/easy/awesome metal songs that we like to play

[CFH]

:drunk: :stoned: My Favorite song to play on guitars is Slayer: south of heaven

[Power Groove]

That's one of my favs at the present time as well. I've also been jamming on

Ozzy: Crazy Babies

lately. It's a simple and fun one to play.

[memnoch]

Well, since i've just recently discovered Death tabs....i'd say playing some of their songs is what i like best right now.
Some of my all time favorites are by
Slayer: Seasons in the Abyss, Raining Blood
....and also
Carcass: This Mortal Coil

[6MORBID6ANGEL6]

some of my favs to play are

pantera:
throes of rejection,
floods,
the sleep,
slaughtered,
fucking hostile,
this love,
art of shredding,
cemetary gates,
hellbound.

slayer:
Seasons in the Abyss,
dead skin mask,
disciple,
raining blood,
angel of death.

morbid angel:
summoning redemption,
blasphemy,
nothing is not,
at one with nothing,
opening of the gates,
god of the forsaken.
and

dying fetus: kill your mother, and rape your dog

the acoustic solos off of Dissection's the somberlain are all fun to play, especially crimson towers.

[J Paragon S]

I have less than a year's experience, so I still suck. . .

I can't play the solos, but Opeth's "Black Rose Immortal" is fun, in part because it's so freaking long. I LOVE long songs. . .the 'high' part about two minutes in is my favorite part.

I also like to play assorted riffs from The Haunted, Nevermore, Arch Enemy, Blind Guardian, and whatever else I can that isn't just power chords.

Black Sabbath:
Sweet Leaf
Paranoid
Iron Man

Pantera
goddamn electric (your trust is in wisky, weed and slayer!)

hails,

My Dying Bride - Here in the Throat, Like Gods of the Sun
Amorphis - Black Winter Day

Grtz Darkenelf:kaioken:

[Woocifer]

In Flames-Anything off of Whoracle... and a few from Jester
Fear Factory-Securitron, Replica, Smasher/Devourer
Strapping Young Lad- All Hail The New Flesh (AMAZING SONG)


I found that as soon as I played Fear Factory songs my picking ability increased greatly...and then when figuring out In Flames (the tabs here are mainly wrong btw) my fingering became far more fluid and relaxed. After that Carcass was a lot easier to pull off hehe

[Lord Malphas]

Mayhem - Deatcrush

Immortal - Blashyrkh (Mighty Ravendark)

Dimmu Borgir - Alt lys svunnet hen

[mrweijia]

! learn riffs!! try ironman, mr. crowley, crazy train, master of insanity and NIB. these are all classics with very cool riffs that are really easy to play

[Darko]

uuuh crazy train.? are we thinking of the same band.

[mrweijia]

ozzy? well, the intro is excellent, and it was pretty tough at first too, then the main riff has tremolo picking w/ palm muting plus chords, so its a fairly good learning song

[terminus]

Any early Black Sabath or Ozzy

[Lordi]

ummm....:idea:

manowar - hail to england
in flames - embody the invisible
in flames - only for the weak
lordi - would you love a monsterman :D



:beer:

[Def]

man, those are the ugly in flames songs!

there aren't a lot of really easy songs that are fun, well maybe some pantera and metallica, the old stuff... don't know.

[The Doctor]

rammstein is a piece of cake.
nothing else mather isn't hard to learn either.

Hey DEF, are you going to de PLATENBEURS saturday?

[Def]

uuhm, I don't know yet, it depends how late my shift finishes (I'm working in the morning shift, from 5 till about 3)
So I don't know if It'll be worth it to go, it's really hard for me to find good stuff, and I've been to the 'platenbeurs' before, I only bought 6 cd's or something.

maybe I'll go and I'll tackle you, okay? you must be really easy to recognize with that cast around your arm HEHHEHHEHE :angry: :rolleyes:

[Setdown]

doesn't 'platenbeurs' really suck??:S

[Def]

no man it doesn't! I went there with michael last time, remember? :)

I bought a couple of crappy cd's back then!

[Ben Wrangle]

all songs from "Show No Mercy" are very easy, adn those songs kick ass.... a lot of Manowar songs are very easy and very good...... but "Broderkapets Ring" from Dimmu Borgir is so easy that's shameful play these song, hahahaha........ well, i really don't care if the song is easy or not, if i like the song, it really doesn't matter....

I really bought some good shit at de beurs, man. If I could spent more mony I defenetly did!
I bought 3 Pantera singles (planet caravan, broken/slaughter PT 1&2) and teh Cowboys from hell fucking hostile bootleg. Plus the Terminator Metallica bootleg.

And in january there'll be a metal market in 013 in Tilburg. I'm defenetly going!

BTW my cast's of. It tured out that it wasn't broken. Just bruised.

[Def]

haha, fuckup ;)


I didn't go there, shame on me :(
I ordered some cd's thru the internet instead, hehehehe....

I think I'll be in the 013 in january man, we might even do a show there next year

[The Doctor]

cool. what band are you in?

[G_urr_A]

Easiest song ever: Manowar - The sting of the bumblebee (the bass stuff) ;)

Seriously though, Iced Earth stuff is pretty easy, like Damien, Wolf (intro), some parts of The phantom opera ghost. I've only heard Horror Show stuff, but I think most other stuff would be easy too.

[Lordi]

i don`t actually like lordi music...but sometimes i listen it, so WHAT??



:flame: :p

check out some iron maiden, thoguh soem may be a bit harder than others, if possible try 'hallowed be thy name' a top notch song

[reign in blood]

pretty much all obituary is pretty easy especially FINAL THOUGHTS
Also If you consider this metal ORGASMATRON by motorhead

[EmperorMalignus]

metallica song (exepts the solos) are quite easy to play
pantera - mouth for war (its fun and easy)

Morning Will Come

brutal mix between metal and hardcore (a.k.a. metalcore)



And I'm not beeing harsh about guitar lessons, ofcourse you can play guitar without lessons, but when you reach a certain level you won't progress anymore, if you take lessons the progression will go faster and you won't get stuck AND you'll learn your theory and techniques.
and about easy songs sucking, they do, who the fuck wants to play nirvana or offspring anyway.

?!

im totally self taught, been playing one and a half years and without bein big headed i seem to know a lot more than those who have been taught in my local area... they say their teachers often limit them but i dont know, most is down to the actual effort YOU put in

i know scales, theory, songs, have good technique etc, and ive never learnt a nirvana or pop punk song :)

but yeah id get lessons to develop my techniques :)

[Def]

yeah, okay but it does depends on what kinda teacher you've got, here in holland we've got special music school teachers, if you've got lessons at an music school, you'll get quality lessons, all those teacher play at E level.

highes you can reach thru lessons is D and then music college, that takes you about 6 years to reach D level.
I'm a C level myself, after 3 years so I'm a fast learner, but I did play 2 years without lessons before that, after 2 years I was pretty much getting bored, then I started to play all kinda styles of music, from jazz to samba from reggea to ska.

[Midnight]

I was self taught for 6 years and didn't go anywhere.. because I just played the same shit over and over.. I got really good at the crap that I knew.. but I didnt' get any better.. Well I guess in a way I did.. I was about average .. Then about what 4 weeks ago I started taking lessons. And within the time i've started until now i've had 3 double time lessons because i'm moving and I already knew most of the theory stuff and i wasn't a beginner.. and i'm 300 times better than I was... All I needed was someone to point me in a direction and help me through the bumps . My technique is by far better.. My speed has almost tripled. It's amazing what a experienced guitar player can do for you if they sit you down and explain things.. That's my $.02

i think, they suck

[Def]

they sure as hell do :)

but hey, everybody has a diffrent taste.

to me they sound like a woman singing and making some rock music, it doesn't sound like real metal to me.

[corroded]

easiest song.......kissing the shadows...............

paranoid & for whom the bell tolls................shit.......are they any good? the point is its no fun unless the song you pick is difficult.....it'll be more challenging.......try tornado of souls....it'll help a lot in soloing
:uzi:

[Dikkie]

Easiest songs:
Dimmu Borgir - The Mourning Palace
Dimmu Borgir - Raabjørn speiler draugheimens skodde

[Dikkie]

Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss

The intro is very nice to play... pretty long intro, like it.
Only the solo... that's the only part i can't play.

[MeTalManiac555]

He's right, Ozzy stuff will help you out, also what I did to learn to start palying faster and better is i played the solos to metallica liek the song one or the solo part on nothing else matters and at first it sounded horrible, but I played it everyday and at first i thought i would never get it so I just practiced and now Im pretty good at them. Iremmeebr how veryone was liek o practice will help just keep practicing and I didnbt htink it would do anyhting I would get pissed and just be liek i odnt think practicing will do shit but i guess it does work. Just stick with it. Hail!! and good luck!!

[killingismybiz]

Nothing Else Matters - Metallica
Mother - Danzig
Twist of Cain - Danzig
The Trooper ? - Iron Maiden

[MeTalManiac555]

Yeah, the "Nothing Else Matters" song from "Metallica" is kind of hard when you first start out playing guitar but after a while you will get the hang of it. Or just do exersices liek go on 1st fret with first finger, second fret second finger, 3rd then 4th then go back to 3 2 1 and keep doing that with your 4 fingers and after a while it will get to to go fast and get the feel of things liek accuracy. (*thats what I did) :D It helped me out. Good Luck. Hail!!!!

[Dvsthrashmetal2]

Dont hate me but this is how i learned....try playing some nu like some fairly easy multi string fingering to get rid of retarded fingers and calus them up an shit then try shit im not bullshittin i started playin guitar sept this year...starts with red hot cunty peppers one finger note shit...then some korn little more advanced but if you play limp dickshit or linkin pork i will befored to kill you i never lowered myself to that... but serously try it now im playing soilwork, slayer, destruction no problem

[PantericA]

[MeTalManiac555]

The solo part isnt easy when you first start playing guitar dude, but for me now its easy as hell, yeah.

[kObwEb]

at the gates - blinded by fear

[MeTalManiac555]

Thats a cool song, and it's easy to play.:D :homer:

[TheKtuluCall]

i dont know if anyone said this already because i skipped to the last reply but most (almost all) of the beginning of metallica songs are very easy. like the first classical parts of the like battery is easy, unforgiven, Nothing else matters. God i love those beginnings. depending on what skill lvl ur at u could skip to something like ...and justice for all.

[PantericA]

or you could try call of ktulu, the very begining has some cool finger picking shit. plus i bet the chicks would eat it up!:cool:

[Freezer666]

just wondering if you guys have any suggestions for songs thatd help practicing on rhythm and complicated beats...
suicide nation by at the gates helped a bit for getting the correct approach to that kind of stuff but id like some other ones:)
(some iced earth maybe? dunno which one though)
i dont mind if its hard to play, actually, id love it:)

(i need practice on that...been playing around the higher frets too much and forgot my guitar actually has frets under 15 :P

[mrweijia]

try paranoid by black sabbath, keep the chords even and steady

[PantericA]

try something like holy wars or killing is my business by megadeth. those should help.:cool:

[metal=life]

Burning Times by ICED EARTH!!!!!!

[Piper5150]

for iced earth i like vengence is mine
its not a hard song but i just think its damn koo lol

[metal=life]

that songs playing right now (the alive in athens version)

another good rythem band is Testament.

[Ivanhoe]

Yeah, best practice for rhythm must be Iced Earth!

[Freezer666]

cheers... i think some Death would be nice too, probably gonna try a bit of Scavenger of human sorrow later tonight :)
(once i find my cd...or emulate kazaalite to download it if i cant find it... soddy bastards not porting kazaalite to linux:P

[Squall]

stormrider - iced earth
technical difficulties - racer x
black metal sabbath - cephalic carnage
carcass - this mortal coil
some maiden can help ya too....

[Lord Arioch]

You could try the others at the gates songs from Slaughter of the soul
if not allready done
Playing soilwork, Cynic, Atheist, Cryptopsy... should help too

Just what kind of rhythm are you looking for?
trash, death...

[Freezer666]

Originally posted by Lord Arioch

mostly anything really:)

ive tried Blinded by fear...im not a huge fan of the rest of the album though, havent listened to it much in a few years

[Zerpire]

Try out Meshuggah! They surely have advanced rythmes and polyrythms. That will be a challenge for sure! :)

[metal=life]

most death metal has good rythem....

[RUSSIANROULETTE]

DEFINATELY ART OF THE DAMNED BY SINISTER

[EmperorMalignus]

try some Iced earth, almost all songs are great to play. Demons & wizards songs too(its Jon Schaffer, the rythm guitarist of iced earth....)
try Mute Requiem by Quo Vadis, it's easy;)

Play songs you like!!!

[metal=life]

HERE I AM!! ROCK YOU LIKE A HURRICANE!! classic rythem:cool:

[Piper5150]

lol scorpions ( i think:rolleyes: )

[andras]

first song i learnt was one by tallica and jesus saves by slayer.

:vampire:

[Lord Arioch]

Si tu veux vraiment progresser fais des exercices en essayant toutes les combinaisons de rythme possible en commençant par la noire puis la croche la double ...ect
c chiant mais utile tu peux aussi y incorporer des gammes pour faire travailler l'autre main.

ps for those who don't undestand it's in french it was easier for me to do it this way

Even if you're not a big fan of slaughter try to work out
the 2nd riff from slaughter and the the song unto other

some Kreator songs would get the job done too

[EmperorMalignus]

Yé! un autre qui parle francais :) dans quelle ville tu reste Lord Arioch??

like he said, practice all rythms you can with 4ths 8ths, 16ths on one chord or note, then play with with left hand

I know Freezer understand what Arioch said, but for the others...

[Lord Arioch]

I live near Paris In a town called sevres.
it's south-west of paris.
You can come say hello if you pass by.:beer:

[metal=life]

i know what you said....i have www.freetranslations.com:D

[Freezer666]

merci pour les suggestions;)
y me reste plus qu'a trouver du temps libre pour pratiquer :( (mes cours de programmation prennent beaucoup de travail a la maison :/

now if only my amp didnt sound so bad, itd be more encourageing to play:P
you know...i try playing some martyr and end up just saying Fuck it cause the sound sucks so bad(virtual emotions anyone? *grin*)

[Freezer666]

after playing a little longer than usual today ive come to the conclusion that i fucking suck at guitar(yep, took me 2 hours to figure that out)

no speed at all...no accuracy...unability to do hammer-ons that actually do sound after the 12th fret...god i might as well get a fucking teacher this isnt getting anywhere and ive had my guitar for almost a year *sigh*

on top of that theres college thats starting again tomorrow so thats 3/4 of my free time gone again which means less time to try to practice(even though practice usually leads to just doing random crap that makes no musical sense whatsoever and that sounds erm like crap)

come to think of it, i cant afford a teacher, mister college's draining my cash, so thats a no....guess im fucked, yay

[killingismybiz]

What's even more interesting, is that it took you a whole year to realize that in 2 hours that you sucked badly at guitar!! Haha.

No, I'm sure if you keep "practicing", then one day you notice improvement. Not everyone is muscially talented/gifted. Heaven forbid, most of us aren't born with that talent... Anyways, you could always join band at college(if they have one) and try to get some free "guitar" lessons.

When in doubt of guitar ability, play super easy song, makes you feel better(usually). Hehe. Either that quit because other people want to join bands too.

[Freezer666]

i dont wanna join a band hehe:P

well playing some martyr at -100% speed cheered me up a bit...gonna ask dave tomorrow if i could leech some lessons off him or just jam or something....i wish my guitar could fit in my locker hehe

[Piper5150]

my friend has one that does:D
it sounds better than my full sizeacoustic lol

[EmperorMalignus]

Freezer, si tu joue avec d'autres personne ça va vraiment t'hamilliorer!! ou les autres vont pu vouloir te voir la face a cause que tes trop poche (mais ça devrait pas la):p

joue les tounes que t'apprend plus lentement, mais précisément. La vitesse viendra plus tard, sinon oublie ça, tu progressera jamais.

Oublie pas, c'est mieux de pratiquer 30 minutes BIEN que 5 heures de marde

J'espere sa va taider

[mrweijia]

yah, thats true. rememebr to focus on what you're doing when you finally get it, and then practise that over and over again

[EmperorMalignus]

seriousely, forget Martyr...i tried Warp Zone a while ago, and that was kinda hard, play easier stuff!!

[Freezer666]

actually it isnt going that bad =p

only one little quirk in Virtual emotions:

--------------------------------------------------------
-------13----------------------------------------------
--------9-----------------------------------------------
--------7-----------------------------------------------
--------0-----------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

what the fuck...fingers cant reach hehe:P
guess ill just switch the 13 to 8 on higher string...god, dan has abnomarlly long fingers hehe

edit: ah ok seems like i can do it, but i have to stretch a bit ;)

[EmperorMalignus]

strech your finger or play that variation

--------8----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
--------9-----------------------------------------------
--------7-----------------------------------------------
--------0-----------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

the 8 on the E string is the same as 13 on the B string ( its a C, ou DO si tu préfere)

[Freezer666]

ouin jsais....jai essaye' les 2 manieres et en fin de compte le 13 est plus euhm fluide a jouer....meme si y faut que je m'etire pour le faire;)

[EmperorMalignus]

faudrais j'lessaye la toune... :)

[Freezer666]

si jaurais un scanner jpourrait te shooter ca...jai les 2 livres

[EmperorMalignus]

[EmperorMalignus]

this is becoming The Official French Thread:D

[Freezer666]

les tabs valent la peine...;)

moi stais pas trop tough les avoir, dan reste a 20 minutes d'ici :P
meme si je suis pas capable de jouer 80% des tounes dedans ca aide un peu pour pratiquer des riffs fuckés

[MechanicalRaper]

I'm lost... anyway, try to play the Attitude Song using only a backing track...

[MetalEdgePunk]

most thrash metal is good for rythem like Anthrax and all...but an awsome rock band that really works timing and all is System of a Down...their stuff isnt hard to learn but it requires good timing and rhythem for a good sound

[PantericA]

system of a down sucks monky balls. that's all there is to say.

[EmperorMalignus]

don't waste your time learning System of a down songs....

[MetalEdgePunk]

Hey stupid, if you havent noticed system fo a down is a band that makes money from a record deal that you probably wont ever get...they have to be good to get that so leave your comments to yourself. They are a good band iand i like them, and if you want to know a good band for rhythm then they are one of them. you need good timing to get a sound that resembles their music

[Freezer666]

system of a down isnt really my style...thanks for the suggestion though

hmm well yay, got Racer-x's technical difficulties first part(from the beginning to the 5 3 0 5 3 0blahblahblah boring bit:P almost at fullspeed...think ill just try the solo afterwards and fuck the rest of the song over *grins*

mmm virtual emotions bridge....
ps malignus si t'as guitarpro, jai transferer Warp Zone et Enoz Praw dessus hehe ca sonne bizarre mais ca marche;)

being popular and/or catchy doesnt make them good

[MetalEdgePunk]

ya well they may be popular now becuase they are good and people like them...ever though of that? ive liked them for their style long before everyone knew who they were

[mrweijia]

no. i dont think so.

[W4rL0ck]

What about beautiful people from maronliyn mason thats really easy

[metal=life]

No one ever mentions the Scorpions or Queensrÿche...they are CLASSIC and easy.

[metal=life]

easy...but shitty

[INVERTED]

The way I see it, all "metal" is pretty easy to play. From Six Feet Under to Dark Tranquillity, its all easy . Just try to learn the songs that you like. The easier songs are more fun to play because they're more relaxing. Too much technical shit gets kinda boring. :stoned:

[EmperorMalignus]

all metal easy??:confused: :confused: :confused:
Children of Bodom, yngwie stuffs, death, quo vadis, martyr etc...
I really dont think ALL metal is easy....Tremolo picking is hard to master (in begining) so fast songs are hard. fast solos's too. If you think its easy, I want you to help me!!!;)

others easy song: dimmu borgir - metal heart. the whole thing is super easy

[mrweijia]

even the solo?

[EmperorMalignus]

even the solo. the only "hard"thing is the arppegio part, but the solo is simple

[mrweijia]

but thats the best part!

[INVERTED]

Classical guitar is hard as fuck to play. Too many wacked out chords and shit.

[Freezer666]

try Spirit Crusher by Death...its pretty straight-forward(except the solo i guess, which i cant play :P ) and yet fucking nice
theres decent tabs of it on mysongbook.com, too

[ThroneofbahoS]

And Trust by Megadeth. I dont really know how much its considered as "metal" but anyway. It is easy all the way.

[G_urr_A]

Ehm..... I'm obviously missing something about tremolo picking, as I think it's easy as f*ck.

I'm not good enough to play more than 5o% of the Iced Earth solos, but trem picking is easy, at least if I'm right about what trem picking is. I find it MUCH harder to do fast controlled rhytmic picking like most Iced Earth rhythm parts.

[corroded]

paranoid (YUCK !!!!!!!!!)
for whom the bell tolls
......perhaps the easiest

ans also a tout le monde

[Freezer666]

death - crystal mountain

[corroded]

play slayer for rhythm practice.......really good for fingering as well as right hand technique.....and of course......its full of feel.....:uzi:

[JasperIncident]

To warm up i use the main riff from Cryptopsy's "Phobophile" because it is pretty fast and makes use of the E, A , and D strings. For some different picking styles (palm muting and triplets) I jam out some old Exhorder, like "Slaughter In The Vatican." And to warm up my fretting hand for rythm purposes, I play the beginning of "serpent headed mask" by nile. That one was a bitch to figure out. hehe

[Lord Malphas]

hmmm .... try some Hypocrisy ... really good stuff ... I learned reincarnation completely(sp) a few days ago ...awesome song try to learn that one ... is in "The fourth dimension" album


btw System of a Down fucking sucks people like them because they're on MTV and that goes for all that shit nu-metal bands ... fucking trends

[The Doctor]

pantera's primal concrete sledge is nasty to

Are you also saying Slipknot is talented because they are popular?

[RUSSIANROULETTE]

good rythm song= postmortem by slayer



p.s. can we cut the nu-metal talk please?:scatter:



HAIL:beer:

[freek666]

cthulhu dawn by cradle of filth. the solo-sounding part helped me alot.
also i saw earlier, paranoid by black sabbath, GOOD LUCK with that.....

actually (i'll probably be the only one) i agree with ya. i like their music too. i just cant stand their followers. i must say though their first album was WAY better than toxicity. i haven't really heard steal this album yet, but i probably have all the songs on that album downloaded on my computer. and uh.. daron malakian is a schitzo on stage:D

[freek666]

oh yeah, it's also a matter of opinion.

[freek666]

you should also try stairway to heaven. not only is it good for rhythm, it's also good for fingering ( i hear hordes of people's who's minds are in the gutter chuckling over this)

[mrweijia]

Originally posted by freek666

Yeah man, SOAD rules, i really don't no why people call it nu metal, you defenetly can't compare it to limp bizshit or POD, it's way fucking better.
Steal this album really rocks ass, dude, so cruel:D

[Dave Asstaine]

ddd practice anything by sabbath and you
cant go wrong,perhaps some slayer too.

[MechanicalRaper]

You should also try the intro to answers by Steve Vai... damned near impossible to hit rhythmically (the chords are a breeze).

Also Dokken's Mr. Scary for alternate picking and solidity.

[AmongTheLiving]

try fight till death (slayer) its a very easy song

Actually, you've just described tremelo picking. Tremelo isn't just picking as fast as you can, you still must pick to a beat. That's exactly what tremelo is, very fast rhythmic picking, not "I'm out of control, I don't know how many notes I just picked" picking. To master it, get a metronome and learn how to use it. It's definitely not "easy as fuck". Especially when you're tremelo picking solos.

[BigOldNessie]

there[QUOTE]


When I first started playing, all I really played was sludge and doom and stoner type stuff which mainly revolves around the blues scale and power chords. All that's fine and good but it gets really old after a while. And after you play it all the time you kind of get restricted, especially when you launch into an improvised solo and it always ends up revolving around the blues scale no matter what you do. So a friend of mine told me what he did. He started learning Death songs, starting with SBG and working his way to SOP. I've worked my way to Individual Thought Patterns and I can't tell you the difference it's made. I've learned too many unorthodoxed techniques to even list, from jazz fusion patterns to odd tempo thrash. I don't believe Chuck has ever been given the amount of credit he deserves for advancing death metal as an artform, no matter what anyone says. That doesn't mean to go out on stage and ape every Death riff into a song of your own, but I can almost guarantee it will open a lot of doors for you to develop your own technical style. Give it a try, start slowly and use a metronome to improve your accuracy and speed until you get it down pat.

[freek666]

Originally posted by mrweijia
ozzy? well, the intro is excellent, and it was pretty tough at first too, then the main riff has tremolo picking w/ palm muting plus chords, so its a fairly good learning song
keep in mind, if this kid is requesting easy songs, he is also probably a beginner. trem picking is really dificult for beginners. also, i never expected the solo, and the various other solo-sounding licks to be easy

[Torture Killer]

Six Feet Under songs are usually always easy...like Sick and Twisted, One Bullet Left, Lycanthropy(I think thats the easiest!), Torture Killer, Bonesaw, and all those other ones. :behead:
The solos arent always easy though.

[G_urr_A]

What I meant by "fast controlled rhytmic picking" is stuff like

D|-------------------799-------
A|--------7-9------------8---7-
E|0-000------01-000----------------

which involves stopping your picking hand, and moving it over different strings. Just hitting evenly spaced notes isn't difficult (unless you have to change frets/strings often) (stuff like Dimmu Borigr - Mourning Palace isn't difficult).

[Kramer]

A lot of Judas Priest songs are very easy. For example Steeler, Grinder, Breaking the Law, You've
Got Another Thing Comin', Riding on the Wind, Metal Gods, Green Manalishi, Running Wild. Danzig's Mother is also very easy, Anthrax's Metal Thrashing Mad and Lone Justice, Black Sabbath's Paranoid. The Iron Maiden song Flight of Icarus is supposed to be easy, but I never learned it. Since you're obviously a beginner I'm guessing you can'tpick really fast.

Once you learn how to pick really fast, you can definitely nail these songs:
Kreator- Bone Breaker, Tormentor, Endless Pain (These songs are on their first album Endless Pain
& if you're new to Kreator I would recommend buying Terrible Certainty before buying Endless Pain)

Slayer- Reborn
Whiplash- Last Man Alive (very fun to play), Respect the Dead
Overkill- In Union We Stand
Destruction- Tormentor
Metal Church- Metal Church, Ton of Bricks, Flee From Reality

I have tabs for most of these songs just go to my profile and click where it says search for all posts
by this user, but a few of these songs I learned from other people's tabs back when I sucked at
playing by ear. I hope this helps.

[MeTalManiac555]

Another song that is prety easy is "Lethe" by "Dark Tranquility," and "Damage Done" by "Dark Tranquility." They are bad song's and easy to play. Some "In Flames" stuff is pretty easy to play also. Hail!!!

[walpurgis]

Just had to point out how funny that sounds :D

[CtHuLhU DaWn]

Thats a cool song, sweet solo? can you play the solo?

The melodic intro is cool, weird chords and positionings but it still sounds cool, i can play everything cept the solo, cos i dont have a guitar, i have a shitty acoustic hurrah :D

[micko]

iron maiden - number of the beast, man on the edge, moonchild, aces high
slayer- hell awaits, raining blood, black magic, angel of death, chemical warfare, haunting the chapel, seasons in the abyss
vader - carnal
thin lizzy - thunder and lightning

only solos i can do are both in moonchild, and the first in slayers spirit in black. though i am picking up far more stuff now and much more easily than before. im currently trying to play the 1st solo in ozzys bark at the moon.

"Block" by Machine Head, currently. I got the Burn My Eyes tab book ages ago, but I couldn't play a quick succession of power chords very well. I took the ti e to learn, and I love to play it now. My favourite riff is the one that follows the chorus after the second verse.

I'm also playing track 5 from "Arise" lots (mmmm...alternate picking).

[Freezer666]

martyr - carpe diem...well, it's not fun to play.
you know why?
cause the intro's a fucking bitch.
it's the most uncomfortable intro i've ever seen heh....but it's still fun, esp the chorus and solos and delay bit

another really fun song to play is uhm the last riff in that first song off Iced Earth's horror show...with those triplets, quite fun and easy too(good pm->stacatto practice)

and the obvious chorus riff+solo of Metal Heart by dimmu borgir, which sounds old school rock/metal :> (sounds cool with the bridge pickup)

there's also Children of Bodom - Kissing the Shadows/Towards Dead End/Silent night,Bodom Night, everytime i die, decadence, ETC (theyre all fun to play, or at least have a bit that's fun)

oh and pretty much anything by Death

Racer X - technical difficulties(the solo version, esp when paul gilbert does it alone with a backing track)

[Nihilist]
