Gamut

Old The Sword is great, but New The Sword is underrated. Biffy Clyro has really grown on me over the years. No lyrics quite like theirs, very emotional songs. And after Eb power metal last week, I couldn't help but throw in one of my absolute favourites I've discovered through Rocksmith. This song's unrelenting and jawdropping all the way through.

~3h until new week is posted. Get your scores in! Out, damned funk! Out, I say! How does this song keep getting more fun??

Hot tamale, that's a tough Adv solo! 🌶🌶🌶

One more go on Blind Guardian. These guys were one of my first forays into metal and forever hold a spot in my heart. Great song off a great album here.

Where did Gamut go all that time? Well, I've been having a lot of success playing live on Twitch lately! Been making friends with people like Phil from All That Remains, Herman Li from Dragonforce, and Brittney and Andy from Unleash the Archers. Been living the dream! But recently, my apartment became unhabitable due to mold, yikes. Had awful health problems that were getting worse every day. So... I had to evacuate, and now I cannot stream, which was my livelihood. T_T But things are working out. My friend's letting me stay with them for a time, and even though the internet cannot stream, every day out of the mold gas is making me feel more like myself. I'm looking forward to making Youtube videos, writing original music, and honing my chops again in the Championship on these much improved forums with you fine folks these coming weeks.

Yo, power metal week? Well then... consider me unretired!

*yawns and stretches* I'm awake!

Definitely not my best solo, but I've got the arpegs down pretty well.

*knock knock*

Sorry for the long absence, been deep in the Twitch hole. Haven't stopped improving, though!

I'm probably not gonna be getting any 1st places with my efforts tonight, but I've got some pretty good stabs anyway. :eyes:

I still exist, hello~ I too failed at 72% of Mr. Crowley. Right when I thought I was gonna make it, boom, 3 strikes at once. :sob:

Little late, but here's the vid of that Lost FC.

One more time, with feeling. ♫~ Beginner FC. Recorded this, maybe Youtube it later? It's ok, you can see my underwear. Duck Tales! AwoOOoo! Almost but not quite my best score on this. I tend to have endurance issues towards the end. Will rest up and be back with a 90.

Some first runs on the little'uns: Starting work on my class tomorrow!

Left it in on purpose, all about the sex drugs n rock life :D

Sorry for getting this out so late, folks, but I put some time in to make it a good one with accurate ratings. Lost! is a short but sweet loungey instrumental. On lead, it's a 3... until the brief but blistering solo thing, where it's a 7 for 5 seconds. Hang on tight! Royal Republic is catchy radio rock with a fairly medium difficulty chart on each instrument. Moon Theme is a METAL COVER of the NES Duck Tales game, fuck yeah. Like Lost!, it's a short, fairly easy Adv on lead, until he wildly shreds on the solo. And Ne Oblivscaris is beautiful and brutal across the board. A great 9+ for the week the gods rest.

Sorry for late start on this week guys, got called into work this morning. New week inc soon.

A mere mortal trifles in the affairs of the gods.

Re: ReRe: I think it's worth pointing out that the chart isn't the best, nor could this riff be very accurately charted in Rocksmith even if charted ideally. Rocksmith only has charting for Palm Muting 100% on or off, when there's actually a bunch of medium in there. Try to ear out the specific dynamics of the hook riff, because it's definitely not straight palm muted like this chart says. You sort of pull the palm muting out and in slowly.
