In this Doom Metal Guitar Fundamentals lesson, we discuss the blues scale, what I call the Blues Riff Box, and how it can be applied to doom metal, stoner rock, and sludge metal. I show you some practical stoner, doom, and sludge style examples and we discuss how they can be applied when writing your own doom metal riffs.

Crazy how any blues scale melody you play in C I IMMEDIATELY start running Into The Void in my head.
I went to the comments just to find someone who already wrote it))
Damn. Into the void was the first thing in my head when this was being played.
Got the comment in here before me for sure. Dude.. Right?
I've never heard Into the Void almost played so many times in one vid
Hahaha!!
Guitarists don't realize how easy it is to write the heaviest of riffs. All you need is a decent amp, good guitar tone, understand basic pentatonic box scales and some open tunings, learn how to properly pick a note and palm mute strings and you are ready to rock. I have been playing guitar for 45 years and I still come back to the very simple basics. Anyone can learn to play the heaviest heavy music. Who gives a flying fuck about Yngwie? Thanks for the great lessons.
Good man
I love how just playing the scale from the open C string with that tone was immediately Stoner as hell.

Long Live Steve and Does it Doom
Haha. Thanks, brother. ✨🧙🏻♂️✨
Everyone comparing it to Black Sabbath but that tone sounds INCREDIBLY like Sleep.
This totally rules. I tell a lot of my guitar buddies that scales are criminally overlooked as a riff writing tool
Criminally overlooked!!
Not a strictly doom metal guitarist, I’m more Nu Metal than anything, but videos like this are very helpful for me as someone who’s trying to cram a bunch of other influences(such as doom metal)into their Nu Metal music. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
amazing idea bro
@@t4ky0n Thanks! Just imagine putting an Electric Wizard riff in a Korn song and that’s basically part of what I had in mind.
Great lesson! It's all about phrasing and remembering you don't have to go up and down the scale in order.
Well put. Exactly right!
Is that aluminum? Is that what Jeff pinkus and buzz Osborne guitar
I'm sitting here like Kerry King in sunglasses as that guitar shine is so bright! Another awesome lesson Steve
😎
Your the reason I bought a guitar, love how you explain this stuff, you make it look so easy n I'm 43 n it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks but I appreciate the effort you put in mate cheers
Nothing makes me happier than hearing a story like that! Good shit, man!
@@DoesItDoom You deserve so much credit man, honestly you made it look achievable to me n I mean that in the best possible way, sure I love the albums n stuff but your the guy that made me say fuck it, I want to try n play so thank you brother
For me it’s always been quite obvious that the DOOMS are forever connected to the Blues. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you Steve! Very helpful. I'm thinking up some BB King doom riffs.
Amazing 👏 never knew those songs were connected so beautifully like that. Thank you Steve once again!
Hope it was useful!
Your tone is brutal man 🤘🏼🔥😃🔥
Thanks brother.
Thanks for the lesson Steve, I've been noodling too much recently and getting bored so this is a nice kick up the arse to try something different. Really appreciated seeing all the different examples for the pattern, looking forward to seeing what I can come up with when I finish work later 🤟
Great man! Hope you have some fun with it.
New favorite channel. Ordered a Elder God super stoked for it!!😊
Thanks for watching, dude! Can't wait for you to try the Elder God!
Nice guitar Steve! Good lesson. Thanks.
I understand you might have played one of these Alumirite Warlords a time or two?! Thanks for watching, Dan.🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great video as usual!
Thanks man!!
I love how practical this is; been playing around with it for a couple of days now (beginner/intermediate; about 18 months since I started playing), and it feels much easier to get a riff out of this than it does if I'm just using a normal scale box. I guess the same principle could be applied to other scales too.
Yes, exactly. Take any scale, pick a key, and look at it up and down the neck rather than box shapes.
@@DoesItDoom thanks, will have some fun with that :-)
Really needed this lesson, thank you 🙏🏻
Glad it was helpful.
Awesome! Cheers from Chile! Keep it Doom!
Cheers!
in the middle of the vid I went and played one of the riffs I had written a few days ago only to find that its in this box lol, it's just a very comfy spot for riffing
Ha. Awesome. No doubt a great spot to riff.
Great stuff Steve!!!🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Thanks, Chris. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Oh man I can’t wait to get an Elder God back! killer lesson !!!
Needed this
Iommi using the box for the intro riff for into the void is so simple yet so fucking heavy. Great video Steve.
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video, and more helpful than most guitar courses!
Hey thanks man! Glad it was helpful.
These riffs also sound badass on bass 🤘🏽
Most definitely. Prime bass riff territory.
Thanks for the pdf. I'm gonna practice these tonight!
Awesome!
So good and unlocks a ton of enjoyable dooming in the basement. Thanks Steve!
Enjoy!
Ahh, thanks for this! 🤘
Glad you enjoyed it!
Alright! I'm in love with that guitar
Same. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
that guitar is sick mate..
Cheers bro. Thanks for the channel and all the work you do. Doom on. 🙏🕉️👽🛸
Thanks for watching man. Much appreciated. Cheers.
I so want that guitar. Great tone, fat riffs
It’s killer!
Very cool stuff My friend 🙂🙂😊
Thanks for watching!

⚔️⚔️
the doors have opened...thank you mate
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻thanks for watching.
It does Doom🔥💫
Love your videos on sleep and blues stuff, any chance you’d cover Some Grass off holy mountain? Been dying to learn that song or even see someone else play it
Checkout Pike’s Patreon! He did a full play through and lesson with a complete explanation of the tuning, etc. I can’t do it better than that! www.patreon.com/posts/79560966?
@@DoesItDoom Oh that’s awesome man thanks I’ll check it out
Just got a Walpurgis. Holy shit, it’s a great pedal.
Welcome to planet Iommia. 🙏🏻🤘🏻
Could u do a lesson for under a acid hoof by acid mammoth ?
I bought a guitar just to play "the sun has turned to black" by electric/acoustic wizard. Can you help me out? All the tabs on google have you tuning the guitar down until the strings fall off.
Your strings are too small. You need to go up on gauge to downtune for Electric Wizard. Checkout my tuning guide at doesitdoom.com/tuningguide
Was your guitar inspired by Buzz Osbournes signature guitar?
Not specifically.
Would you ever expand this channel into funeral doom, death doom, blackened doom, etc? I love stoner and what you and fuzzlord do for the community but I don't like how stoner seems to overshadow the rest of the genre.
Once the warlords are back, would I be able to get one shipped to the UK?
We ship them to the UK all the time. Have two killer B-stocks left at a $400 discount for our Black Friday sale. Https://doesitdoom.com/product/warlordbstock
@@DoesItDoom cheers for the quick reply man, was also wondering what the nut is made out of? I also noticed it doesn't come with a case, how would you guys ship it safely, or is there an option to buy a case to be shipped in. Cheers.
Sabb and Zep were blues bands, Sabb a little less obvious but nevertheless, they were bluesy. The blues scale hits something in all of us. Well maybe not in India or other Asian countries, but actually Church of Misery is from Japan an they are blues all the way!
Edit :sorry for the ramble, green leaf, got some new ones stuff at the dispensary
I saw Church of Misery here in Melbourne back in 2018. Local doom metal band Merchant was the opener. It was all heavy as fuck!!
@@cavanray5327 Lucky!
@@Dwightpower88 Merchant. Succumbing is my favourite song of theirs. They only ever released this ep and an album, but they were so good, and their farewell show was as good as any international band, just they packed out a small dive bar instead. But they had the crowd in the palms of their hands, and when they played Succumbing all hell broke loose. One of the best shows I've ever been to. th-cam.com/video/2aEfZy0awgc/w-d-xo.html
Anyone know how/where to score a hardshell case for these guitars? Sick of hauling around a $1400 guitar in a bag….
This is a great case for the Warlord. They sometimes go on sale for $125 or so: www.amazon.com/ProRockGear-RGM380TSA-Deluxe-Rectangular-Guitar/dp/B01MTV0J66
That guitar is fucken beuteefol ! Is it made out of aluminia?
All aluminum, yep. doesitdoom.com/product/alumiritewarlord
@@DoesItDoom f********k ! A truly metal guitar!
Do you get less RF with it? Since you can basically ground the whole guitar...🤔

What's that purple amp head?!

Does it doom hagstrum phantom men guitar
What is this scale called?
Blues scale.
uh, so greasy sound, my favorite

In which band does Steve play? I was looking for a female fronted doom band, can't remember the name and thought it was Steve playing.
Soooo distorted!!!
your guitar not in tune? The Druid sounds really weird because of that. Also why your guitar tone are so muddy? (not in a good way like classic doom/sludge)
Accidentally had my guitar tone knob rolled off, and tuning definitely could have been better. Unfortunately, I only hear the guitar acoustically while the recording is in progress. Oh well, onto the next one lol!
That guitar sounds kind of awful.
hey man can i have your guitar😊
You can get your hands on the last one here: doesitdoom.com/product/alumiritewarlord
@@DoesItDoom aw man no lefties!
🐌🧙♂️🤘😈🏜 this stuff really helps me alot
Glad to hear that, Mark.
@DoesItDoom I really think everyone should learn "blank" by E.H.G that song is alot of this but i also feel like it's all the fundamentals of doom all in one song.
@@MarkDaniels2787I agree! Here’s the full lesson I did for Blank a long while back for anyone interested in diving into some iconic sludge th-cam.com/video/H038OVmmqCk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dQELgIjoAH6IEaCw
