I have recorded a couple of pieces of music recently which I quite like, but again they are not metal. I have trouble with writing metal LOL. My problems comes to mastering. Yes I know that I add compression on the main bus, to level out all the sounds, but it is knowing what EQ to put on different instruments to make the Bass come through. I have only had the bass 2 weeks so I am new at bass, but so far having fun.

Great lesson! Thank you! Awesome guitar tone as well

Here in Denmark metal heads are not outsiders... they're dads... and the their kids don't even call it metal. They call it "dad rock".

Good help. Thx

Working on my first single. Hopefully done by the end of summer.

Can't thank you enough for these videos & this channel. I am in no way any type of guitar or bass player, I'm an engineer; But I've been going down rabbit holes of how to make guitars sound realistic (when producing with all software). Also because then I can just hand over midi files and wav files to bands or instrumentalists and combine our works. Videos like these really help me appreciate and better understand how to write different styles with playing live and with real ppl. I was always much better with playing on piano and producing with a piano roll, but that way doesn't translate to guitar AT ALL lol Would love to see a follow up for more modern subgenres - like Metalcore (Asking Alexandria, Attack Attack, FIR, PTV, SWS, etc.), Deathcore (BMTH, Attila, etc.), Electronicore (I see Stars, Enter Shikari, Arsonists Get All The Girls, etc.), Industrial?? (MIW ??), nu-metal (I'm gonna get hate for saying this ig but stuff like LP, Korn, Limp Bizkit) I'm sure I mislabelled some of them and to be honest I don't care much for extreme "no it's this sub sub genre and not that sub genre" label wars; my point is moreso a video on breaking down more of the modern stuff from like late 00s/early 2010s to nowadays with bands like Bad Omens and Spiritbox (shoutout to iwrestledabearonce that belongs somewhere on the above rough genre list I made). Metal always seems to be changing, and I'm sure those simple breakdowns from the "crunk metal" era are scoffable to novice guitarists, but I would definitely appreciate your insight into that stuff.

You tube has the same problem

Does this work for ladies too?

Thrash-Death-Doom is my style so I’m working on my gallop/tremolo, tremolo/gallop transitions. I’ll be 66 the fifth of next month, so being in a band is probably not gonna’ happen. Practicing this standing though.🖤🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🖤

We are getting our first 5 songs done and ready for an EPK. But we are still seeking a guitar player.

I've been working on practicing improvising solos. Saw a video by Ian Stich a while back breaking down how to solo over No Quarter from the 1973 MSG performance which finally helped me understand how to actually use the Dorian mode, which sent me down a rabbit hole of learning theory and how to build the modal scales around any of the pentatonic boxes.

I am writing the second album with my band

I'm getting ready to buy your bassist Course

I've always been a huge nerd with music in general, so that when I discovered metal, that was something extra special for me. I always loved music written from an artists perspective and not something that was going directly for the masses, so metal goes hand in hand with this. I love music period, but metal is for life 🤘🤘🤘

Very nice lesson, thanks for sharing

Good lesson, thank You Jason 🤜🤛 Regards from Poland 🍻

Man, your channel is awsome! Tks for sharing cool tips 🤘🏻

This is some awesome information Jason!!🎸🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻 Thank you! Have a wonderful weekend!!😎😎

Basically it's playing what the guitar does but with little fill ins

I feel like this dude gives good hugs.

This is great to hear. I was going to post covers on fb but worried it would shut me down due to copy right.

One thing I recommend bass players doing is to harmonize with the guitars like Cliff used to do. Listen to the chorus of No Remorse for a great example of this. This gives you some structure when constructing your bass line because you are basically doubling guitars only on a lower string, but since you have already deviated in a clear way it is easier to add your own fills without coming in conflict with the guitars.

Mixed feelings here, I always felt guilty using method 1) and 2) where you actually aren't writing anything but making choices to render some parts of the music that just sounds good as they are. Method 3) is actually what you're supposed to do as a bass player, so it's the one I use the most. But there's my favourite which is method 4) and it's soloing, there's nothing wrong about going with bass lead and play a different melody. Especially in metal with low palm muted chords there's a lot of space to take. Not sure how this 4) is not really common, and it's probably why in 95% of metal albums is really boring for bass players. Sounds like a bass is not even needed in the era of 8/9 strings guitar unless you're very good in melody and soloing. :)

I think it's important to give context for what's happening elsewhere in the song with a part like that. Usually we would be giving space there for another instrument to spice it up instead of ourselves like a drum fill or the bass doing something cool

Just released our first song last night after assembling the instruments and persons! Would really appreciate it if you could check us out!

So helpful man. Thanx for the vid

By the way you would actually have to type in the band name instead of clicking on mine .this is a side account . Also facebook and tiktok have samples of whats to come . We are working on audio quality, recording, and vocals atm. But this first album has been so fun to make and i think alot of you will like it . God bless you guys . Much love . Now please head to between the soul and eye and give us a sub !!!!

As an autistic person, the only comunity on this planet I've ever felt accepted in was Metal.

iirc Amon Amarth's lead guitarist is on a 7-string and the rhythm is on a 6-string tuned down to B. I grew up on thrash and groove metal, and have listened to a lot of symphonic and power metal since those days. My musical voice is hard to nail down because of that >_> After starting Riff Master, an idea hit me that was my often slow, deliberate sort of thing (think Crowbar). Then I kicked it up a notch and added thrashier elements along with the groove elements and I love it, working it into a song, now. And yeah, trying to write symphonic metal I have to remind myself "Leave room for the orchestra." lol. Thanks for sharing.

long, low, heavy AF guitar chords have a power and weight behind them. Love it.

method 1 is the standard thing which people need to write better-than...

Thank for shsting i know my don will see this and will lovebit 👍🏼

You Rock Jason 👏🏼👏🏼💯🤘🏼

Can't wait, thanks for the update! It sounds like by the time I finish Riff Master and Sweep Picking Master your lead course might even be ready. Nice.

Dude, lol, i did not expect your singing voice to sound like that! Ha ha! Not in a bad way at all! Just unexpected! Actually it was pretty good!

I just wrote a song few days ago and ive been trying to make a riff but none worked hope this helps me

this video needs timestamps ._.)

Glenn was already driven @ Sheridan. Combined multi-media & live performance.

No wonder, that Mainstream Pop Artists that you hear on the Radio nowadays. sounds the same.

Agree with all these comments. I never fitted in anywhere else apart from the metal community - who just embraced me for me. "Normal" people don't get that I love blaring out metal when i'm working (I work at home) as it helps me relax and concentrate. See you out there Metal Family

Thank you man, it helped me a lot! I subscribed you. \m/

Other great video

Very good 😊
