    little tip: for the main riff at around 4:25, when you play the 3rd and 4th fret on the high D, instead of going down to the 5th fret on the A you can play the D again but open to get the same note and make it just a little easier to play

      @waveymattdavey 3 года назад +12

      Interestingly I find that way harder, as when you play the 5th fret note you can effectively mute all the strings so you can be pretty sloppy with the right hand, but when you play the open string you have to be a fair bit more careful to not let the other string ring out.
      But that's just my hands. Always good to have options.

      Brandon, I found the same thing after learning calm like a bomb. I practiced it hard for a day, woke up and everything I'd been playing previously was WAY easier. Learning Rage tunes is like a master class in rhythm. It's simple, but you have to commit, and you gotta bring your A game. Tom Morello is About the heaviest guy on the planet. Thanks Tom for making my pulse race more and faster than any other music group.

    • @garyavans70
      @garyavans70 7 лет назад

      Red Actual its an octave pedal that Tom uses for that solo. It's pretty easy to pick out the beginning notes. follows the chords mostly. If you find the first note of each phrase as a starting point, he hits those notes first and then steps and releases the octave pedal. Try to hear the solo without those octave jumps and it's easier to pick out. Hope that makes sense and helps. Without that pedal it's tough to replicate. Good luck. Great song

I always use a metronome but in this case it looks like it is not always the same beats per minute. The main riff it is about 88bpm but I get confused in the intro.
