    Guitar Player's Thread

    In that case I wouldn't recommend spending much on a pickup if you're using a pod. It won't really change your tone a whole lot. The main difference you'll be able to tell is whether you use an active pup vs a passive pup, as well as a high output or a low output. In that case I'd probably...

    Guitar Player's Thread

    What guitar are you putting it in and what is your amp situation? Those determine tone more than a pickup. Some good general pickups IMO though (since we don't know the rest of your gear) are Seymour Duncan's SH-5 and SH-6, as well as Dimarzio Crunch Lab.

    Music theory

    In a sense, yes, but I also believe that the longer you play a single instrument (without touching any other instruments or bothering to learn theory), the more sterile your compositions end up sounding. I got into a composition rut a while back and even WITH having taken a decent amount of...

    Music theory

    To those saying you don't "need" theory for such-and-such, sure... well, you don't need it. But it can only help. There is a structure and process for all skills you acquire in life, whether it's lengthy or not. Music happens to be a very deep subject. Why, I ask, would you want to ever...

    Children of Bodom - Cover Thread

    That was sick. I've never been much a fan of that song, but this made me like it a little bit more :p

    Hatecrew Death Roll vs Are You Dead Yet, Blooddrunk and Relentless Reckless Forever

    Lol, every single thread in this forum amounts to virtually the same discussion over and over. And Joonas says the same thing in every post. Does anyone have anything new to say? :popcorn:

    Hatecrew Death Roll vs Are You Dead Yet, Blooddrunk and Relentless Reckless Forever

    Understandable, but you're inflating my argument and arguing against an extreme statement that I've never said anything about. Just because I've used the word "technique" to describe my feelings? Bodom is not anything like the "technical" bands you're talking about and you know that. I never...

    Lets Talk About Random Shit Thread.

    Saw this band tonight in my area. Posting because the vocalist really reminded me of Alexi, especially parts like 0:51-0:55

    Hatecrew Death Roll vs Are You Dead Yet, Blooddrunk and Relentless Reckless Forever

    :lol: I can't tell if you're joking or not by saying "that's metal." Metal musicians aren't cavemen. Technique is used. My feelings about his old vocals.

    What's COB's Genre?

    Music has many different fundamentals or elements. These include but are not limited to: pitch, beat or pulse, rhythm, melody, harmony, texture, allocation of voices, timbre or color, expressive qualities (dynamics and articulation), and form or structure. In addition to these "fundamentals"...

    Hatecrew Death Roll vs Are You Dead Yet, Blooddrunk and Relentless Reckless Forever

    No. It sounds like he actually knows what the fuck he's doing now technique-wise. In earlier albums he just fucking screamed. I can more easily attempt to replicate his old screams than I can his new ones, they have more power behind them and aren't so wispy/raspy.
