Playing along with Iron Maiden albums never hurt anyone.
I started to practice to Maiden back in the early 80's and even with my Rush,Yes and Genesis stuff I still haul out the P-Bass at least once a week and put the ric 4001 aside for a Maiden session.Great for speed.Maiden's music is just plain fun and not too hard to learn although Steve Harris will throw you some challenges!...RobPlaying along with Iron Maiden albums never hurt anyone.
Playing "Pulverized" from Canibal Corpse helps a lot too. I´ve been working out through this using only two fingers and have noticed improvement.
The main thing in my case mas to make every single note sound the same and with a lot of punch. Also, the good old "1-2-3-4 alternating fingers thing" helps a lot too.
Thanks for all the tips everyone!
I've been doing metronome on and off for a while, got back into it now. Another question: if I can do one scale up and down at 120 bpm, but for the next my hand is too fatigued to keep it up, should I lower the tempo to accomodate my weak endurance, or just give it a few seconds in between each run?
Can someone answer this question?
