Have a nice time :)

Why have i been moved from int lead to mc lead? please move me back as im not to great at solos.

Oooo, Angry Again, I like that one. Addicted to Chaos is also a good intermediate song.

 

EDIT: You also put me in beginner.

@@storm20200 Leaderboards are not always correct. Championship Class Lists is place where current classes are correct.

 

@@Dennis430 You're not forced to play in MC Lead and after few weeks of poor results (or not competing in that class) you will be moved down to Int. I can't bring you back to Int now, cause that wouldn't be fair with rest of Int Lead's. Your scores were way better then ours, moved you to MC. It's done so guitarists of same level are competing against each other. Still, you can participate in whatever class you want, though you won't be able to win it. Don't play in MC Lead for 3 weeks, and you'll be back in Int.

Good metal songs this week, yay! Well Rammstein is just passable but good for Beginner class. 1st run.

I've never heard this Rammsetin song before. I'll try it out on guitar as it looks fun. I'll give Jump in the Fire another go on bass as see how that goes.

short rest and tried again with a tiny improvement

 and add the bass

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=304731885 Megadeth. Dave Mustaine sounds Scottish when he sings this... I do love that song though, reminds me of being a delinquent :) Other attempts will cometh when I can be arsedeth :)

 

Ah, looks like I could be arsed.. Metallica, mild improvement. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=304737078

Heh, so I think that accidental 99 on the beginner rhythm for last week is going to bite me... First try on intermediate landed me at just under 60%. I'm not even going to honor that with a screenshot :D

@@NoonyDeloony Dave sounds Scottish? Sounds like classic Mustaine to me. This singing type from him is more post Rust in Peace to include Go to Hell from Bill and Ted's Bogus journey through Cryptic Writings

Here are my scores for Beginner Lead and Intermediate Lead :D

@@cabalistic Dont worry to much about a low first score. I have been in Intermediate for the last 23 weeks and this is my first score for the week.

Edit: A few tries more

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k228/maztor42/Rocksmith%20championship%202014/AngryAgain76_zps282da16a.jpg

 

This one will require some RR for me.

@@Tonedef Classic Mustaine, I don't dispute, just sharing a subjective, audial observation.

Since we're discussing Mustaines vocals what is your favourite style of his? I always loved the way he sung Lucretia, it always felt a bit different to the way he sings most of his stuff.

If you don't count the solo then im finding the MC song easier than the intermediate song.

But my arm is hurting from playing it 2 times in a row.

Yup, arm hurts after playing this songs and amount of solos makes it MC, though it's one of the easiest MC songs, as solos are not so difficult. But that pain :) So much fun :)

I think, this is way out of Intermediate class.

@Shrioo It's not as bad as Jump in the Fire, it's not an incredibly fast or complex riff, the chorus and verse are pretty relaxed. The only bit that may be quite hard is the part where you're moving all the way up the neck. The solo doesn't look like a Masterclass solo either. I don't think it's too hard.

 

Also I'll be "Angry Again" if I have to start learning a different song hahahahaha, sorry I couldn't resist a pun!

Jump In the Fire is masterclass song If Im correct. And by my experience, there hasnt been this hard song in IC ever since Trooper, which isnt even that difficult compared to this. 

 

Im not suggesting change (although I would be glad if it happened), I was just wondering if everybody feels the same :)

Yep, I think it's Intermediate - maybe in the higher end of the Intermediate scale (compared to others I've played) but easier than Jump into the Fire.

 

Only thing is, I'm not sure I like the song that much. Probably give it a few tries then back on to Jump ITF for some wrist torture...  ;)

 

I'd ideally like to pick maybe 10 songs that I really want to be able to play and then get very, very good on them; preferably in master mode. If there was a bit of structure to this, then great..

 

I don't really LEARN songs playing them in Hard - I just learn to play them.

Speaking from the bass player perspective (well, my perspective at least) I think Angry Again is a great intermediate choice. I love the runs up the neck and it's improving my dexterity playing it so I'm concentrating the practice on that one mostly this week. I want to play it on master mode but to get to that stage it usually takes me a good few weeks, if I 100% it by the end of the week though I'll be happy plank spanker.

@@Shiroo There hard learn only solo, but there solo more easy and more short than JiF. Other part, is hard only for first runs, because have not standard chords, and slow with simple pattern arpeggio moving all the way up the neck, all enough easy, not very fast,  for intermediate class it possible learn in RR (except short solo). And this the song give challenge for all.

here it's a good improvement

http://s14.directupload.net/images/140824/kazrl77g.jpg

and also on bass :)

I think Mustaine synched the best vocally on the Youthinasia and Rust in peace albums, not a big fan of Countdown because it was "popular" and everyone was playing Megadeth for the first time on there stereo's when I was a diehard fan. So a little bias.

 

Five Magics and Tornado of Souls are my favorites though.

 

Sorry Noony, misinterpreted your comment.
