FWTBT is pretty easy on guitar
y not try Creeping Death (Ride the Lightning) or Phantom Lord (Kill em All)

Uhm... I could play RTL, but my issue is remembering the order of things. That's the only problem I have with songs like One (which I pretty much have pat down).

To be honest, I need another patch lead for my pedals to be able to record FWTBT properly, and I'm skint.

And no, Cliff's intro isn't as hard as the middle riff which James and Kirk play.

I could possibly have a go at recording Sanitarium after my exam, but I may take a little time. Need to learn the second half.

Was your Seek and Destroy at the album version tempo gocaps?

yeah, creeping death is really cool! if you want a real challenge, do call of ktulu, complete with the solo and growling wah bass. for KEA, why not play 4 horsemen?

Are you recording just one song? Can't you record say 5 and chose the best one?

Do Trapped Under Ice or RTL. Their both fun. Everyone does FWTBT.

so who is recording?

Yeh, ive heard like 4 different covers of FWTBT but none of RTL, if u can play the solo...

....that would be obscenely cool :thumb:

The solo isnt hard...just long

There is a solo at the end but I would just call it an ending not a solo.

Not on RTL. There is on Creeping Death

He meat FWTBT methinks.

Right. What is the decision on RTL? My options would be... RTL, Ktulu, or Creeping Death. I need to learn half of Ktulu, and the whole RTL song if its one of them. I might try doing Sanitarium for you lucky chappies later though.

From a guitarists view it would be Call of ktulu,creeping death,RTL. The solo in RTL is way crazy.

It's really not that hard, the fact that it's two guitars playing the solo makes it sound hard.

If anyone here can play RTL with the solo, that's awesome.

i want fight fire with fire, trapped under ice or sanitarium. but im not recording so i dont really metter.............

if i had a mic i could do for whom the bell tolls.

[QUOTE=fatbandit]Hmm. Shocking recording. Loads of wrong things, inconsistent volume etc. I need to get the hang of recording. Anyway. Here's something for you. Comment on tone and quality of recording (ie, is it good enough for you guys).

I've come to the conclusion that Seek and Destroy on the album is too slow :(

:smash:[/QUOTE]

can u post that in wmp form (windows media player) i dont got real.

oops sorry fir the double post.

How come I barely notice bass in most metallica songs. When they're on concerts, do they just give guitars too much volume and forgetting about bass? I was watching that rock in rio and they played creeping death and I couldn't notice bass until guitars stopped and rob kept playing bass. I guess it's noticable but it should probably be a little more.

That was good fatbandit. spenser93, you dont need real player to play that. Winamp can play it just fine.

but it was still good, and for the eq use bass 10 mid 9 treble 3

btw theres a little part where he wips on his wah and od pedal during the chorus, right after james says seek and dsetroy.

I agree. That would be really cool from a guitarist standpoint to do those songs.
What recording stuff are you guys using? I wanna join in the fun. :)

[QUOTE=Metal_Head_617]If anyone here can play RTL with the solo, that's awesome.[/QUOTE]

If i had someting to record with i would do this or Trapped Under Ice or any other of the many Metallica songs i can play

Hey, I hear Met is comming out with a remake of St. Anger with solos in the songs. Is this true? If so....thank the gods.

i did not hear about that....

it would be interesting to listen to but i think the sogns suck so much that even a guitar solo wouldnt make them sound better

Personally I don't think Kirk has it in him to make a decent solo anymore.
So I really don't think a remake of St. Anger with solos would be any good.
I think they should send James to some vocal training, and shoot Lars in the head.
Get a decent drummer, who knows what GOOD drums sound like. If they re-released St. Anger with a decent sounding drum, fixed James' voice, and maybe shortenned the songs, it would be fine. It is a great album, but there are a few problems which keep it from being an awesome album.

Does anyone else here think that James's vocals have droped in quality over time from past albums to the more recent? Just listen to the vocals on The Four Hoursmen and compare them to the vocals on St. Anger.

...Well no kidding, ~25 years of singing like that and your voice is sure to turn to crap. James isn't 19 anymore. Obviously his voice is going to go, just like Araya's voice is going, just like Dickinson's voice is going, just like Mustaine's voice is going.

personally i think Mustaine's vocals are still somewhat strong, and Clapton has been singing for way longer then any thrash vocalists and he's still going strong.

[QUOTE=BassMasterMike88]personally i think Mustaine's vocals are still somewhat strong, and Clapton has been singing for way longer then any thrash vocalists and he's still going strong.[/QUOTE]

yeah, but clapton doesn't sing with the same strenght that hetfield or araya.

[QUOTE=heavy metal kid]yeah, but clapton doesn't sing with the same strenght that hetfield or araya.[/QUOTE]
this guy knows truth

the thing between hetfield's vocals now and 25 years ago is that its not that theyre weaker thyre just different. 25 years ago metallica was thrash, now theyre just crap. when hetfield sings lstuff from kill and rtl its awesome i think it just goes with the music

by the way if talica where did u hear the rumor about talica and the st anger solos, i think that will be interesting to hear, st. anger in my opinion doesnt suck its just different and i respect metallica for doing something different.

Chuck Billy's isn't :rolleyes:

About Clapton:

I don't know much about singing or anything, but the type of vocals Clapton does aren't the kind I would imagine ruining your vocal chords as fast as something like a thrash-style vocals would. Like I said though, I'm no expert.

I think Mustaine's voice is getting better. Well from a personal point I liked his original sound, it was unique, but now from a wider perspective, I think his voice is better now then it was in '85.

No offence, spenser83, but I know how to play the song. I played it almost exactly right, bar a few *minor* timing slipups, which people haven't picked up on, so its all good! It happens to be exactly how you tabbed it actually. So I don't see how you can say its wrong :confused:

On the subject of EQ, its an entirely subjective thing. I would not use that EQ normally, far too trebly for my liking. However, I can't record with anything less trebly without compromising sound quality. And I wouldn't use your EQ either. If everyone has the same EQ, the world becomes a boring place. I have a far mroe complex EQ than just one bass treble and mid knob as well, so your suggestion wouldn't help hugely.

Eep. Another exam, but no rehearsal tonight, so I can try and record something.

:smash:

can anyone upload Sad But True for me. they have perfect tab in the guitar one issue this month. I have a GNX4 to get the exact tone. I was learning the solo last night and this morning, but i cant remember how it goes.

Thanks a million. I have 12 gigs of music if you wanna trade or something
