Let´s Rock Today!

Is this song screwed for anyone else?

Might just need a repack in the toolkit or something.

More fun than the bass by a longshot.

 

I forgot how off this was.

 

Half of this was sustains or nothing at all, wow. "the great war" album is way better imo

Last song was probably the best one, with "The Carolean's Prayer" being second, rest are a bit meh.

Carolus Rex is my all time fav album from Sabaton, it's pretty fun to play on lead, but on rhythm yeah, it may be a bit boring 

sunday morning, monkey is falling :) 

Looks like the capo was done through editing the xml manually? had to import it into eof and regenerate the xml for it to be fixed. Also added DD.
No extra sync or note adjustments were made and everything else except rhythm only have DD added.

Thx man!

 

I just, as i do with every single song after downloading used the CFSongManager to check and repair if needed including adding DD.

That  way my version was flawless looking very alike the screenshot of your repaired one. I recommend repairing songs before playing. It´s a one click - and it adds a lot of quality and fun.

The Amon Amarth cover likely added at least 3% to the total. I have not heard this in a few years, but I find it more enjoyable than the Great War, or at least find it more diverse (for what my memory is worth).

I wish I could do that but every time I click the Song Manager tab CFSM crashes. I've been through stuff on the discord several times too. :(

 

 

I find the bends really hard. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Starting to like this song lol

On re-listen it's not too bad. Only 2 songs that I'm not a huge fan of, rest are pretty good.
Still love The Carolean's Prayer. The octaves, the organ, the chanting fadeout, its bloody amazing. Gives me some nice gothic metal vibes

Rhythm:

 

A little harder than lead:

 

 

I like this CDLC in the Rhythm path :)

 

I completely fucked up playing this masterpiece. Probably one of the best prog rock albums ever

And of course, one of my fav Sabaton albums ever. Every time I play A Lifetime Of War I have goosebumps

hi all , unfortunately i couldn't get the Adv song to work properly but i had great fun with the Monkeys, as always,

 

 

a definite 100% given more time

 

 

another 100% i believe

 

 

 

high 99% i think I've got a lot better than this in the past.

@@MaZtoR - Hah, about exactly the same heroic sightread score i had on that Soul Meets Body Song.

 

@@Telboy - please try the latest link in the comments of Soul Meets Body - if that also does not work, i´ll upload my repaired version! Upload in the comments of the song

I wish I could do that but every time I click the Song Manager tab CFSM crashes. I've been through stuff on the discord several times too. :(

 

Argh.... pity - we gotta fix that!

Did you completely remove the CFSM and reinstall a fresh latest version?

@Rodman  It was a really hard song to sightread. But its fun to improve on.

 

also some rhythm

Good bass form today:

 

 

 

 

Much better

Yeah. Honestly, the only thing left to try is getting on a discord call and sharing my screen because its totally fucked.

Great custom @Nacholede.  It was really fun to play.

 

I want to start by saying this weeks bass selections were great!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

this song is super fun to play! it went into my favs!

 

 

 

Ok so I think my final scores. 

 

First a run on intermediate Arctic Monkeys track, where I managed a 426 streak I'm pretty proud of: 

 

But I managed to later edge out the score with a smaller streak run:

 

 

You might look at this and say I'm ready for the intermediate bracket. Not yet I think, I invested a greater amount of effort into the Wolfmother track and.......:

 

 

I am convinced this was the harder track, my best streak on any run was 107 but this was my peak accuracy and I'm now actually at 24 plays on it. First attempt at Soul Meets Body was a 55% it looks like a hard one.

Fun song

 

Cool song, but there's a lot to it.

 

Didn't quite click what was going on and I didn't care to take the time to figure it out. 

 

Definitely preferred the rhythm path.

 

I didn't have my capo handy so I had to go MacGyver mode with the screwdriver and hair ties!

Can't say that I'm a fan of KC so I guess that have to do :)

 

 

Very quiet here today  ;) 

 

I improved the result against the background to satisfy me, but playing this track on a lead is not a pleasure.

 

But the rhythm is quite enjoyable :)
