The song beat me. I doesn't manage it just a little bit. And of course I stumble sometimes.

Most of all i hate this corporal right here:

Didn't managed to up %% of Rhythm version. Get more points with lower accuracy.

Lead result:

I give up. For today at least. But I'm not sure I will have a passion to try this one again tomorrow. 

My best score:



Also tried this song once:

Facts, the bends always get me! Like is this a pre-bend up two semitones? It works like 50% of the time. Idk it’s the same with the mutes, I always get confused by the Rocksmith notation, is it a palm mute or a frethand mute? I have to look it up often and it’s still sketchy.

Bass

Compared to the difficult (for me) bass charts that @ cacahuate51  recently selected rating them 8.5, this seemed relatively easier for me, hence the 7.5, but I can agree that this is 8, because I see that no one has achieved 99% here yet.

95 first try is pretty impressive! i'll still be here waiting for the day you decide you want to be promoted xD

Thanks for the great week!

 

 

First scores for this week!!! 🤩🤩

Some improvements

Try GoB

These fast notes above 12th fret destroyed me, I always have problems with high frets on bass...

This time I played the first part of the chart with a pick and it worked better.

Improvements

Satisfying af

Better late than never








This song is way too fun

My first try also had a 9 and a 5 but it was 59 🤣

How do you guys approach this type of songs? Do you do it at slower speed and memorize the patterns? Is it a scale, pattern or instinctive and really good sightreading?

Bass scores 

I can almost do it at 80% 😅

Not so much at 100%

Better.

I played this disgrace of a song thirty times, no joke. I had like 15 times getting 99.75. Nice fight @ drand

 

Not what i wanted, but it is what it is 

 

First attempt 86%, so much better.
Is this a new Metallica song as I've not heard It before

lead It was a waste of time I sucked
