I want notice I didn't accepted a  promotion to Advanced Lead 🥹

I can't open Panic! song. OneDrive says it's deleted or not available anymore 🥲

Have a nice musweek everyone!

Panic! at the Disco - Girls/Girls/Boys.

TODO.

Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar. Fingerings parts are messed me up. Is this lead 5 for sure? I can't even play intro part.

 

Anvil - Metal On Metal

  

Rush - The Analog Kid. Simply... hard.

NOTE:

ANVIL song has been REPLACED by OPETH for the week because of too low difficulty - thx @ Mikson  for testing.

Anvil will be back! 😉

Rock, Rod.

Bass scores
This has a couple of wrong notes In Bass but It not a bad chart shame its been removed

great song 

Never really listened to Opeth this was ok very long but ok

Thanks for the week Mr R.o.d.m.a.n!

kinda slides all over the place so im surprised it was rated quite low, thought it would be higher


Yea i remember testing this song quite a while ago but decided to not choose it. Bass notes are off at the end of the loop which is a shame cause it gets repeated quite abit and the creator no longer uses the site.  Someone reported it so its most likely gonna dissapear from the site unless someone uploads it (and hopefully modifies it). nice song /bassline though when played correctly



i remember testing this one as well, cool bassline but theres also some sections that dont seem right. perhaps in the future someone that enjoys rush will give them some love. 

Continuing the musweek!

Panic! at the Disco - Girls/Girls/Boys. Easy song nice for beginners.

 

Opeth - Godhead's Lament. Very hard.

 

Only recently started listening to some Opeth, so this was a nice surprise.
I want to improve these later, but this will do for now.

It might be worth mentioning that there is another version of Metallica - Whiskey in the Jar here that is more up to date, charting and accuracy wise, and felt a lot smoother and intuitive to play. I felt like I was fighting the chart when I played along to the version that Rodman linked. Probably due to the chart being over a decade old and is a product of it's time. 

I need a jar of whiskey now. I have no idea how I'm going  to play lead part.

Really liked the vibe of this one.

I do think I missed a note, but Rocksmith didn't care 🤣... If only it detected my chords better (or I figure out what it doesn't like...)

 

Thanks for the new week!

I don't like Metallica and I don't like any version of this song, but I do like the sound of an open D string:



Tbh, I mainly tried this so we wouldn't get a sad TROPHY LOST next week, but it really isn't my kinda style:

Hey y'all! First week here, long time bass player. Fun song 😀

Can see a lot of muted and open notes In the chords that should not be there not sure the chords are right either . sorry about that

Enjoyed the lead part though following the vocals

Hey Folks!

I've been busy the past couple weeks, and just got back from vacation today, so here are some rusty scores

Rush, love 'em! Canadian treasures

Only recently been listening to Opeth too (finally). This one's fun!

Thanks for posting @ Rodman !

Had a great weekend seeing Avenged Sevenfold, System of a Down, and Polyphia. SOAD was incredible!

@ Rodman did this week in a hurry on Sunday, so some of the songs weren't tested, which is understandable. It's good that the MC song was swapped, because the previous one was much too easy for this class in my opinion.

First Lead scores

Chords with a muted A string are difficult to recognize unfortunately, I tried twice and it was always the same.

Probably one of the most famous covers. Unfortunately, this is a very old CDLC (from 2014) and while playing it I saw that it should be improved in terms of tones and chart (the riff is quite uncomfortable to play). 

I was wondering if anyone had created a new version in all this time, and I saw @ Syvaa post, which I agree with. I think there won't be a problem if someone plays the new version of the CDLC from 2020, and the score should be accepted. Rodman posted this old one because, quite simply, a suggestion that had been sitting there for many years was randomly selected from the selection list sheet.

Nice song. Mostly chord-based, as is often the case with Rush songs.

Great progressive metal song.
