  • Have a nice musweeke everyone! Thanks for hosting @cacahuate51 ! This week is a Eb Std tuning week. And that means random detection issues are welcomed 🤣 Thirty Seconds To Mars - God’s Eye Gorillaz

  • Thanks for the week @cacahuate51 Very good songs and I think I only heard the Gorillaz song before. Great week! Bass

i fell asleep so i appreciate you guys being patient, its a bit later but atleast more people got to participate last week aswell.

This week i chose songs in eb standard. There were alot of contenders (surprised since i dont really play in this tunning much) I think all paths should be good, although dificulty wise some do feel kinda samey so it was hard to judge.



Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V_xRb0x9aw

The Melodica Hook: The iconic, haunting melodica riff that opens the song and runs throughout was actually inspired by the theme from the film The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

  1. The "Omnichord" Preset: The drum beat and many of the electronic sounds come from a Suzuki Omnichord (specifically the "Rock 1" preset). Damon Albarn reportedly found the beat on the machine and thought it was so perfect he didn't want to change it.

  2. Del the Funky Homosapien: The rap verses were not originally intended for Del. The band had recorded a version with a different rapper, but when that didn't work out, Del (who was roommates with producer Dan the Automator at the time) wrote his verses in about 30 minutes.

    Thirty Seconds To Mars - God’s Eye
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJJBBhrhsSQ

    Cinematic Influence: Jared Leto has often noted that the band's music is heavily influenced by film scores. This track in particular features the sweeping, atmospheric production that mirrors Leto’s work as a director (under the pseudonym Bartholomew Cubbins).


    Relient K - Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5R_xvUb3r4

    Chart Success: This was the band’s most successful single, peaking at number 58 on the Billboard Hot 100. It marked their transition from a niche pop-punk act to a mainstream radio presence.

    Personal Reflection: Lead singer Matt Thiessen wrote the song as a raw confession about personal growth and the struggle to move past his own mistakes. The "piano-driven pop-punk" style became a signature sound for the band following this release.


    Rise Against - State of the Union
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d96W_cKI71o

    Political Intensity: This is the opening track of the 2004 album Siren Song of the Counter Culture. It is one of the band's shortest and most aggressive songs, serving as a blistering critique of the U.S. government’s foreign policy during the early 2000s.

    Vocal Strain: Tim McIlrath’s vocals on this track are among his most "screamy." He has mentioned in interviews that the intensity of their early hardcore-influenced tracks like this one requires significant vocal warm-ups to perform live without losing his voice.


    Lynch Mob - When Darkness Calls
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T11DyiWcPZE

    George Lynch’s Signature Tone: The song features the intricate, heavy guitar work of George Lynch (formerly of Dokken). It highlights his "Tiger" guitar style—high-gain, sustain-heavy, and technically demanding.

    Oni Logan’s Return: This track comes from the 2009 album Smoke and Mirrors, which was significant because it marked the return of original vocalist Oni Logan to the band after nearly two decades.

    AFI - Dulcería
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5yV1OAC6UQ

    The Billy Corgan Connection: This song was co-written by Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins. You can hear his influence in the song's "new wave" and "dark-pop" groove, which is a departure from AFI's punk roots.

    Jade Puget’s Production: Guitarist Jade Puget handled the production for the album Bodies. He deliberately sought a bass-heavy, danceable rhythm for "Dulcería" to contrast with Davey Havok's smooth, crooning vocals.

    Mcbaise - Alice
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9iYyqr6ibs

    Multidisciplinary Artist: Mcbaise (McBess) is not just a musician but a world-renowned illustrator and animator. He creates all the artwork and the distinct black-and-white 1930s-style rubber hose animations for his music videos himself.

    The "Tall Ships" Link: Mcbaise is a member of the band The Dead Pirates. His solo work, like "Alice," often features the same blend of psychedelic rock, jazz, and "yacht rock" vibes that define his visual aesthetic.

This week is a Eb Std tuning week. And that means random detection issues are welcomed 🤣

Thirty Seconds To Mars - God’s Eye

Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood. The song is too long. The main riff in Lead part just wasn't detected most of the time (of course).

6CPQIp.jpg m1zwWp.jpg

NSI4z0.jpg

Relient K - Who I Am Hates Who I’ve Been. Some tricky moments here.

CRT0RE.jpg lHCpzX.jpg

oRgHCQ.jpg

Slayer Rise Against - State of the Union. Fast.

5uqkoi.jpg WmzPGq.jpg

k7VpEq.jpg

Lynch Mob - When Darkness Calls. Something incomprehensible. For some reason notes are did not ended afer the end of charts.

rO7CxS.jpg TG4sBo.jpg

s7WjdJ.jpg

AFI - Dulcería. Hard part is the end.

c3uS8E.jpg

Mcbaise - Alice. Can't play it.

A7X. Finger playing parts ruined everything.

@cacahuate51 Thanks for the week and for the good arrangement of selections in one tuning.

I actually only know and like a few Gorillaz songs. This one too, but it's a bit long and repetitive to play.

20260426152701-1.jpg

Because of the last sections, this is definitely more than 2.5 for me. I'd give this 3.5.

20260427205325-1.jpg

20260426153214-1.jpg

Ah, this chart is not my style at all, these chord jumps are so fast...

20260427204945-1.jpg

Very cool song. I didn't know this band. I like the extended solo section at the end, but it's difficult!

20260427210005-1.jpg

Thanks for the new week! Relient K was a real nostalgia trip :D

Edit: the difficulty ratings felt right.

?imw=5000&imh=5000&ima=fit&impolicy=Lett

I know the song is super easy, but I'm getting angry, so I'll leave it at that for now.

And I can't get these chords fast nuf

Rise Against is insane. I barely can play main riff at 80% speed...

Hi everyone! It's my first time here. I wanted to participate mostly for the fun of sharing with you all (even though I’m not as skilled as you guys yet, but I hope to be one day!) and to keep improving.

I’m not sure about my level, but I'll start as a beginner. I’ll leave my screenshots here and will update them if I get a better score during the week

thanks for the songs! they are really fun to play and great for practicing
