[RSjeffH]

Still have Power, and a Hurricane song to work towards.

 

 

[Mortalo]

 

 

My favorite Sword tune. So good riffs.

 

Quite fun. You can't say no to some good Japanease music.

[Vodka]

I don't know what the hell is going on (again) but I'm getting lots of "miss" in SDAMOT with Estd... 

Will try to research it

[wrentheseedling]

Song feels much easier for me this week, now to try to squeeze another 5-ish % out before the end of the week.

It had been quite a while since i played with my heavy strings crapocaster. Had a bit of a hard time finding the right frets when shifting.

First goes:

I forgot to play in SA.

 

Muse is quite difficult, even on my Muse bass:

And so is The Sword:

And I was tired and losing interest at the end of this:

I think the bass songs are in the right order.

 

Must try harder. :)

[johnal]

Still working on Where the Sky Ends

Now I can get up to the solo and fall apart.  It will be interesting to see if I can get through it this week (I may not play the other songs :)

[MellonFarmer]

This is the hardest Intermediate song I've seen yet...

[Gamut]

Where is Gamut? I'm not entirely sure, but he left these scores in his wake.

 

(Been tunnel visioning on my stream a little bit too hard, where I mostly sightread lots of requests for songs I've never heard of, and I've kind of been losing my edge as a result. Let's see if I can remember how to score high 90s on things this week.)

My favourite Sylosis tune. :wub:  Most of this song is pretty simple, but then the sweep picking comes out of nowhere and knocks you into the stratosphere.

There's some very advanced bits sprinkled throughout this song, but all the chordspam makes it pretty easy to score high on even if you bork the tough parts. Don't be discouraged, int players, I had trouble with this too.

[Mortalo]

Welcome @@OJEeM!

And that's a wrong The Sword tune :)

[OJEeM]

Thanks for the welcome. Updated links to correct sword songs (and added marilyn manson).  I will use links instead of searching for the songs in the DB for later entries >.<

 

Welcome @@OJEeM!

And that's a wrong The Sword tune :)

 

[Gamut]

Welcome to our humble competition, @@OJEeM ! You're a fellow Rocksmith/Dota streamer, I like you already. :D

[Vodka]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Staji]

Maaaaaan I hate how this sounds, but it's fun to play  :P

Bass coming up, I messed up the picture  :(

[johnal]

Where the Sky Ends

 

A hair of improvement, I seem to freeze when the solo comes and the part before the solo gets me tried up as well.

[Anwyn]

Some early playthroughs.

 

 

 

[wrentheseedling]

Well I got it a little better with practice, I think I've played this song enough to make myself sick at this point.

 

I remember the original sweet dreams are made of this song, and marilyn manson's singing is kinda like listening to fingernails on a chalk board to me.  Too bad because it's got some nice riffs in it.  Where's the mute button . . . But here it is for what is worth.

[MonstaS4]

Fair challenge this one. Not a bad start though.
