  • These are thrash metal guitar riffs and techniques you should practice every day to become a better rhythm guitarist.
    You’ll be practicing different techniques in each of the 5 metal riffs. And you’ll also be combining methods in each riff.

    Even better, I show you how to write your own thrash metal-style riffs in these lessons. Because you’re not just learning 1 riff or the technique. You’re also learning how to go beyond and fit these riffs into songs.
    Here are the times for each lesson (and thrash guitar techniques being played):
    00:42 - Thrash metal riff lesson 1 - triplets, palm muting with riffs
    04:36 - Thrash metal riff lesson 2 - Fast downstroke riffs
    09:21 - Thrash metal riff lesson 3 - Riffs with hammer-ons and pull-offs
    14:58 - Thrash metal riff lesson 4 - Alternate picking with roll-offs
    20:04 - Thrash metal riff lesson 5 - Triplet chromatic riffs
    22:57 - 3 ways to support me and my channel, which the links are listed above
    Practicing these patterns every day will also help you with playing transitions on the guitar. Think of a verse going into a pre-chorus, then a chorus, and then maybe a bridge.
    The patterns you’re playing will help you create those types of riffs that tie the different parts of a song together.
    Keep it Metal,
    Jason

      instead of a full spider you could just reach up with the 2nd finger and fret the root of the power chord

    The triplets in the first riff are not really triplets, but straight 16ths, although we're not nitpicking here, we're alternate picking ... I'll get my coat!
    The rest is bull's eye for metal playing and the riffs are fun to play and not just dry exercises so Jason is da man! :D

They have never even heard of one single Heavy Metal band or care to listen to one. It's a very low intellect, homeless, drugged out area.

    FANTASTIC MATE !!! you seem to be a rather patient ,caring man... You aren't drilling new players or intimidating to young folks... I've played thrash, from its inception... You give em something tangible... Basic stuff THAT SOUNDS GREAT... This I believe to be, particularly with thrash metal is what puts young people off - As we use maximum or near max gain/distortion- it creates a lot of noise...which over time,you learn to "manage" through damping and muting on and off, back and forth,up and down... And you aren't pumping heads with the rather intense,at times, pretty advanced jargon commonly used by THRASHEADS 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️ ... I am humbled by your "casual, laidback " delivery , descriptives, plus the showing- again in a "steady" manner of the fingerings on the fretboard, and again particularly for THRASH, the all mighty picking and palm muting..... LOVE YOUR WORK MY GOOD MAN...In ending my blurb of cognitive dross - IF YOU ARE A BEGINNER..INTO METAL, ESPECIALLY THRASH OR EVEN MORE EXTREME FORMS OF METAL- BUY AN ELECTRIC GTR AND A SMALL COMBO WITH BUILT IN GAIN/DISTORTION ETC... TOO MANY PEOPLE, AND I CAN'T BLAME EM, WANT,OR THINK YOU MUST START ON AN ACOUSTIC AND"WORK UP" TO AN ELECTRIC...AND LEARN HEAPS OF CHORDS (YOU'LL NEVER USE 90%OF EM, LEARN THEM LATER) ACOUSTIC GUITARS PUT MASSIVE STRAIN ON YOUR FRETTING HAND DUE TO THE STRAIGHT UP AWKWARD ANGLES...AND THE BODIES ARE THICK- THE LAST THING YOU NEED FOR METAL... ELECTRIC GUITARS are half the thickness,have cutaways specially for ease of access to the high end of the fretboard, for leads more so... AND LISTEN TO THIS GOOD MAN.... nothing worse than teachers who are hyper, talking off topic, throwing techniques at you like a ninja star..... AHOY 🎸🎸🎸🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🦘🦘🦘 and THRASH HARD🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

    Hey Jason, I'm loving the learning from you bro', I must say that I personally picked up on a 'Kill em All" vibe at the start of this one, I may be alone on this, but I was playing really slow at first and found myself hearing the patterns to a lot of old school thrash...
    Guess you can't hide inspiration and who wants to, personally I find that it only takes a slight variation in cadence's, perhaps key too! Damn I am so glad I found your channel mate, I've been practicing at least three times a day, hour and a half a piece, dude you've answered all the greenhorn questions I'd have been to proud to ask when I was younger, something to be said for being older man, I'm learning in proportion to the amount of effort I put in, which I didn't achieve when I was a youngin'... Cheers again mate.

    • @jasonstallworth
      @jasonstallworth  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You nailed it with the effort comment, dude! At the end of the day, it's all about how much we put in! Even though I've played consistently over the years, I wasted most of my 20s so I can relate. I certainly could have taken music more seriously back then. Making up for all of that now x10 (and have been for quite some time...I'm an older dude now!)
