do people still go to metalarchives





Well you can quickly get a pretty good overview of a band or artist over there, but it's so ridiculous place on so many levels.

Really glad I gave this more time.



There's a stellar guitarpro tab on UG that any guitar-playing fan of the band should jump on.

Oh fuck man, I recently jumped back into playing. Been a while.



Currently working on dexterity and finger speed for fretting/picking. Let me know of any good exercises if you have any.

Instead of generic and boring exercises, I use riffs and licks I like to practise that stuff. Like if I want a nice solid sweep picking routine that covers the sweep basics, I use the end of Sequoia Throne by PtH. It's a fast run, so I'll play it on guitar pro at just a fraction of the original speed and slowly work my way up.

For lead alt picking, I like using the intro to Daydream by Vinnie Moore and just play those first few bars over and over again until I can hit the 158 bpm or whatever it is. For riff based alt picking, I like using the intro to C'est La Vie by PtH (the first dozen bars or so)

Dude nice. Playing with the tempo on g-pro is a major help. Honestly didnt realize I could edit that previously.

this album was dope but for some reason a lot of their newer stuff just doesnt stick around in my mind



I totally agree, but in relation to all Insomnium. Guess there's better melodeath out there.

Apart from Be'lakor. Their stuff is far more interesting than anything by Insomnium, ye

I'll be damned if Insomnium isn't one of those overrated, overly jerked-off bands but goddammit, Winter's Gate is probably the most beautiful and most rewarding MDM album I've ever heard, the rating is well justified

I think I put this #2 on my album of the 2010s but I burnt myself out on it so I haven't spun it in a while
