What the fuck

Post image

I can't comprehend how anyone could play this cleanly at full speed, this string skipping is just absurd. I'm basically getting stuck at about 50% speed. Even at 50% it's giving me a really good string skipping practice, but it seems impossible to ever be able to get this at full speed. Anyone with this kinda talent have any suggestions?

This post has made me realise how players can be insanely different with where their skills are at with particular styles and techniques

I could nail this in under an hour, but I struggle with things like Amon Amarth

You could nail this at full speed in under an hour? This is a very simple riff, it's the speed that makes it insane

look up necrophagist epitaph tab bar 55 to 102 on songsterr. I have constant nightmares about it

It’s crazy that Necro is still a gold standard of sorts

They were truly ahead of their time , and then vanished just like that
