Sometimes, as needed, you do a strong mute. Sometimes, a light mute, and sometimes, no mute. In each case it was what the original piece called for. Well done on having the ear to discern what level of muting was required and in doing so created a very dynamic rendering of the piece. This is riff/groove based Metal, so again THE GROOVE IS THE THING!! Thou Shalt Not Mess With The Groove!! Good news here is that you ar locc into hte groove from the first bar of the tune. You let it breathe when it's supposed to and clamp down when it's called for. Well done. I think you have a knack for this type of Music. Might I suggest that you take what you've learned and write some Music along these lines? You can clearly play it well, I think it's time to flex your creative muscles and start writing Music!! After all, the entire point of all of this is just to prepare you to make your own Music and be able to express yourself through Music. You are ready Soldier!! Solid 7 from me.

Strong sides of this one are the tone, intonation and unwanted noise muting. There are no obvious mistakes...just some precission missing. I would give this one some more time. It may not seem so hard speed-wise but it has some elements that are hard to combine together. You're late with some position shifts. You palm muting tone should be stronger...try to push the pick inbetween your strings for more attack. It clear that the tone works fine so the problem source is definitely in your right hand. You need to experiments with hand and pick angle. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I think that everything that I've commented at Deftones lesson can be applied here, but you are closer with this lesson. It sounds much better than the other one regarding dynamics, groove, and articulation. The key here is to be able to play that main palm muted riff with more precision, tighter with the drums, and then you can consider this lesson mastered. That's where I find the more relevant timing issues, since you tend to go after the beat. Try to go tighter with the drums. Your tone is GREAT for this style. Good job!

Preferably you should rely on your internal pulse - tap your foot and play to the groove. I think this would give a more relaxed and enjoyable impression to the listener. You get a 6 from me - keep up the hard work! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
