ZreD9th November 2009Hey Lian, Once again you've done it..
This i grade A 100% Metal, And I LIKE IT! 
And just one thing; The last video (5) the Tabs is a half step too low (In the start you play 10 - 8 - 11, but the tabs says 9 - 7 - 10) It didn't take me more than 10 secs to relize the problem, but just to avoid any confusion, I suggest you fix it
And again, nice Lesson!

Hi guys! Welcome to a new lesson! This time the GMC hit song for last Christmas: Where is Santa.
Just as Gabe, I also had many requests about this. So finally, I put hands to work. XD
Link to the song: Where is Santa?
This lesson, or song, is focused on melodic death metal. What´s this? well, it´s extreme music, with some melodic lines as a main idea. Generally full of growling voices. Some bands you can check out are Arch Enemy, Children of Bodom, among others.
Techniques:
palm muting
fast picking
pinch harmonics
Hope you like this lesson!
Take it step by step and have fun!
