Sabaton - The great war - Full Album is up for 4 weeks.

 

Lead is a 10, we shall discuss rhy and bass diffs, keep in mind that there is no chance to learn individual parts for the lenghts.

[Milo]

Oww, such an early ending of the week. Missed bass entirely :(

[Toni-Wan Kenobi]

Is it possible for an alt intermediate lead song? Something fun.

Nevermind, it's fine, I'll just struggle through AC/DC instead.

Crazy soloing that breaks diatonic conventions at will, nothing less from a madman like Chris Poland:

First pops. Three pops,

Megadeath, ACDC and sabaton, wew good week.

Yea pretty fun song

Megadeath for fun, missed a note during the solo bit for some reason.


Right, 5 string time. Haven't really used it without a pick yet so here goes.

Wao my strings are loose compared to my 4 string, probably need a thicker set on there.
Not too hard, its just really long lol

[Rcrai]

I didn't get this posted in time but it was the first time I was able to break 90% in intermediate lead  :D

Bravo!

Your score got accepted ;)

[Telboy]

I must confess that i never have liked AC/DC but i am now, thanks to the Championship, getting to like them.

 

great way to start Sunday morning......

 

 

this was my first attempt......ended up with a broken E string on the last 1/4 of the song

 

 

new strings and a bit of practice....... that first 2 segments are very unforgiving on SA

 

 

this will take a bit more work but enjoying it

 

 

beat my previous best by 1%

 

great songs

[RdGkA]

Had a problem with "the great war". I came to song 9 of 11 "Fields of Verdun" in learn a song mode, then RS wrote something about max level an restarted the song.
I had around 200 to 250 misses, is there a limit in learn a song?

[MaZtoR]

First tries for the week.

Hey, great to see you playing my brandnew cdlc, hope you enjoy it. Actually I have no time for RS, cause 've joned a new band a few weeks ago. Had to workout their songs from scratch and practicsed a few hours every day. Yesterday we had a great gig, finally back on stage, so great. But still a lot of work to do. Also I am very happy with my new Stingray bass.

Keep on rockin'

 

[coldrampage]

Rhythm tiem. Las 'cus I was scared of dying 30 mins in.

"Fields of Verdun"?  the one with the metalcore-y root note string skippy bit Killed me lol. Need more practice with stuff like that.

The end of "The Attack of the Dead Men" surprised me too lol, especially on bass

 

I got a headache now so ye thats it for now.

i dislike this bass version, it feels like the rythm is wrong
