Christmas Music

Do you ever imagine a rockstar or a metalhead playing Christmas Music ? I bet you never think of it. Imagine today you are going to watch Megadeth concert, you enjoy the trash metal songs being played, you enjoy every second of it. In the end of the show the band suddenly make an announcement that they are going to perform there again next month, but this time no more metal songs, no more headbanging.


The band announces " Next month we will be performing again on this stage. We will play tons of Christmas songs for you, please don't buy any ticket, Free Christmas Music for all. "


I'm sure you will be shock and dying going to hell.Hehe. Well this is not a fiction story, Megadeth member really did this, Dave Ellefson (former bass player founding member Megadeth) said he was proud to be part of a project. "I am proud to be playing songs that have been well crafted with a true message concerning the Spirit of Christmas.”

Buckethead Signature Les Paul

Guitar manufacturer Gibson has mentioned about Buckethead Signature Les Paul in their official website recently.

"From his prolific solo work, to his prominent memberships in the supergroup Praxis and rock legends Guns N’ Roses, Buckethead has displayed one of the most fiery creative personas of our times, and has continually affirmed his stance in the upper echelon of contemporary shredders. Equally attention-grabbing as his incendiary chops, Buckethead’s stage show and visual presence remain unique among the rock field, and his Gibson guitars—a white Les Paul in particular—have always been a big part of that. As Gibson continues to roll out the Rocktober action, the Buckethead Signature Les Paul celebrates this unparalleled artist’s achievements. With an oversized, chambered Les Paul body, a marker-less ebony fingerboard, and Buckethead’s choice of Gibson’s contemporary ceramic humbucking pickups—complete with modified electronics and “arcade” style kill switches—this is a Les Paul like none to have come before. It’s primed to get you noticed, and designed for utmost performance for the contemporary rock, metal, and shred performer."

First of all,if you haven`t read the first lesson, I highly suggest you do so. (enter link)



On this lesson I`ll be showing you various arpeggios, each one with its unique sound.hopefully you`ll find something you like and add it to your guitar playing.



Section 1: Diminished Arpeggios (Cause neo classical farts love it!)


Well if you`re familiar with the works of becker, friedman, moore, etc`, you know they just love to use those diminished runs.

E||---------------5h--8--||
B||------------7---------||
G||-----5h--8------------||
D||--7-------------------||
A||----------------------||
E||----------------------||

The most common shapes of that kind are the 4 string shapes(shown above), which can be extended if you take the same thing 3 frets higher, and from there another 3 and so on.

E||---------------------||
B||---------------------||
G||---------------------||
D||--------------7--10--||
A||--------6--9---------||
E||--5--8---------------||

Thats also a diminished run,on the lower strings.
Here`s a nice diminished arpeggio I've come up with, that covers all 6 strings:

E||-----------------------------5h--8--|
B||--------------------------7---------|
G||-------------------5h--8------------|
D||------------4h--7-------------------|
A||-----3h--6--------------------------|
E||--5---------------------------------|

Thats about it for this section. use those shapes to get an idea about the sound and tonality of diminished.

Section 2: Pentatonic Arpeggios (break out of the box)

Every guitarist knows the pentatonic scale and can play it "in boxes". The problem is that most guys are stuck in those boxes and can't really expand the pentatonic sound to more stuff.

Becker showed in the AIM clinic some pentatonic ideas, which are original and great. His advice is to change the order of notes in the scale. Meaning, if we`re playing in A pentatonic minor, the notes are: A,C,D,E,G. So if we play those 5 notes in any order, how much we want to, we`ll get a pentatonic tonality.

Here is a pentatonic arpeggio,which sounds really awesome.

E||--------------------------5h--10--||
B||-----------------------8----------||
G||--------------------7-------------||
D||-------------5h--9----------------||
A||----------7-----------------------||
E||--5h--10--------------------------||

You can check if you`d like to, you`ll see that all the notes in that arpeggio are from the A penta. Minor scale. Thats one idea that you can utilize to every penta. Minor key you want.

Next is another arpeggio, which is actually famous! This is the arpeggio used in the intro of becker`s "perptual burn".

E||--17p-12------------------------12h-17-||
B||---------15------------------15--------||
G||------------16p-12----12h-16-----------||
D||-------------------14------------------||
A||---------------------------------------||
E||---------------------------------------||

This guy is A penta. Minor too! Becker just changed the order of the notes and got a great fresh sound, from an overly used scale.

Last idea for this section is actually playing the penta. Minor scale!
Well not exactly, we`ll play it by sweep picking.

E||--------------------------------------10h-12h-15-||
B||-------------------------------10h-13------------||
G||----------------------7h-9h-12-------------------||
D||----------------7h-10----------------------------||
A||-------5h-7h-10----------------------------------||
E||--5h-8-------------------------------------------||

Its pretty obvious, you got here the A penta. Minor scale, played in 3 different octaves. The key here is to make the arpeggio not sound like the same pattern repeated 3 times.

In order to do that, you`ll need to learn to sweep it, pick every string just once, meaning left hand is all legato. It might seem like an akward thing to sweep, but its possible and sounds great in my opinion!

Section 3: Weird Stuff.

The first weird arpeggio I`ll show is the Augmented. This one is rarely used, mostly because its so damn dissonant! Although you can hear it on cacophony`s "black cat" in the end of the chorus. Here is one shape that covers all 6 strings, you can derive from it smaller shapes. beware as it sounds very nasty!

E||---------------5h-9-||
B||-------------6------||
G||-----------6--------||
D||---------7----------||
A||----4h-8------------||
E||--5-----------------||

I guess you can use it for some shocking breaks, or that kind of stuff.

The next (and last in this section) Arpeggio is the Whole-tone. As you can tell, its based on the whole tone scale. If you`re not familiar with this one, the formula is: 1-2-3-b5-b6-b7. Whole-tone gives you a modern-day classical sound.

E||----------------------11h-15-||
B||-------------------14--------||
G||------------12h-14-----------||
D||---------13------------------||
A||--12h-14---------------------||
E||-----------------------------||

Thats pretty dissonant isnt it? Thats what makes this section "weird"!

That concludes this lesson, I hope you learned something new and liked it. On my next lesson I`ll show you exotic arpeggios, some beautiful stuff that becker showed in some clinics he did back in the day.

Deep Purple The Real Highway Star For 40 Years.


British legendary band Deep Purple already exists for 40 Years and still rocking. What a great achievement. The band's popular songs like "Smoke On The Water" and "Highway Star" had been written and composed long time ago back in the 60's?/70's but still got high popularity and being listened by many of the younger generations.


Recent interview conducted by expressandstar.com reveals that Deep Purple didn't shows any sign to quit from the music industries, in fact I believe they never know the word of "retirement" in their life. Ian Gillan the frontman of Deep Purple for 40 years said they’ll be in full writing mode around February.


“I take that a bit badly,” Ian says. “I mean, we’ve always been doing this. Live music is what we do – make new songs that we include in the act every now and again.”


“No-one’s done any writing yet,” says Ian. “I’ve got about 50 songs in my library at the moment, but they’re not for Deep Purple.”


Rapture of the Deep was the band’s last studio album, released in November 2005, and fans have been hoping for something new in 2010.

Mustaine Said Blabbermouth & Roadrunner Don't Like Megadeth

In Megadeth forum section of the band's website, Dave Mustaine has commented the negative thought about people hating Megadeth.

"There has been a lot of talk about the possibility of a 'Big Four' tour [featuring METALLICA, MEGADETH, SLAYER and ANTHRAX], and while I find the timing peculiar, the opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, because we all are really so very different now, and the chances of this happening are probably not going to come around again in the future; due to personal plans, new ventures, and the inevitable passing of torches to the next generation in each of our respective genres (or the sub-genres that were created).

"Our crew and the Japanese crew were keeping it just to our friends and the top acts. In fact, at one time we had me and Kerry King [SLAYER guitarist] talking, Dave Lombardo [SLAYER drummer] holding court with several people, Akira Takasaki [LOUDNESS] was hanging with Shawn [Drover; MEGADETH drummer], Glenn Tipton from JUDAS PRIEST, the guys from ANVIL, and lots of journos, photogs, and record company people all in my dressing room.

"Funny, it seems like Blabbermouth and Roadrunner USA are the only people who don't like me or MEGS anymore.

"Such a shame.

"I knew I shouldn't have done this. Why didn't I trust myself?

"I regret a lot of things in my life, but this is the most regrettable."

Megadeth's Endgame Updates

Megadeth's new upcoming album "Endgame" has won the 'editors soundcheck' of German monthly metal rag, Rock Hard magazine and is featured as 'album of the month' in the September issue.


This album also was appraised track by track by Thequietus.com To quote some of the appraised:

Endgame

Doesn't Mustaine just love this kind of subject matter? A regime inflicting a brutal new world order on innocent civilians etc - it's probably a bit like being in his band. "Attention! Attention! All citizens report to your district detention centres" says the goon with the megaphone before we get a satisfyingly chuggy riffscape straight from the late 80s. Again the latter part of the song involves the accelerator being buried directly to the floor amid guitar hero meltdown.

Headcrusher

Having been touted around for weeks now this, the first single, is a perfectly acceptable, straight-ahead metal track which in truth is one of the album's highlights; fast, power-metal that's a bit like 'Painkiller' era Judas Priest. It's as uncompromising and unintelligent as the title suggests. Mustaine's snarl is the key here as only he could deliver this with such vitriol, and there's more intense playing too as he and Broderick trade lead breaks. It's a welcome return to no-nonsense, well produced technical metal and a good advert for where Megadeth are at at this point.

Nothing Left To Lose

An ominously rumbling bass intro ushers in a rather predictable and plain riff that makes a lot of fuss about going precisely nowhere. Yet true to form, Megadeth rescue the track: the tempo builds to a frenetic conclusion of both track and a surprisingly sturdy album.

This new album will be available worldwide on September 15, a countdown counter

Slash's new album will out next year

Recent update from Slash revealed that his solo album will only available next year, the album which will enter the mixing process in September is really great & deserves tour support according to him.

Slash wrote:

Hey all, hope you're all good. I'm long between blogs, I know.

Anyway, I don't know how I'm supposed to wait until next year to put out this record! It is so fucking cool & I am so anxious to get it out already. We start mixing soon & that will be that, ready to go. But, I have to wait, there's no way around it, for all kinds of logistic reasons & that's the reality.

But, my VR bandmates & I had a meeting a couple of weeks ago & although the search for a singer will continue, I am going to tour on my solo record most likely thru next summer starting in March or April. We (VR) will keep the word of mouth system going & listening to submissions from singers & checking out different singer's sites etc, we know the right guy is out there somewhere. It's possible somebody could turn up before I do my tour & we could start working on new material sooner than later, in a perfect world.

As far as my tour is concerned, I have already started to put together ideas for a kickass band & the plan is to perform some new stuff, Snakepit, VR & Guns stuff. The new album is really great & deserves that I should support it. Plus, I'm really looking forward to getting out there & doing some gigs, its been more than a year since I was on a proper tour & all these one off jams are basically just a tease.

So, there's the update for now, I'm still tinkering away on the solo record but there really isn't much left to do on it but mix it, which starts in September.

Cool, Take care, talk to you soon,

Slash

I delayed a little to postar link. They forgive.
In June I was for Chile to touch in Coca-Cola Guitar Fest.
The Festival, beyond my presence, counted on the most known guitarist, Alejandro Silva and a competition for guitaristas Chilean.

The video shows as well as was the event, also my face of suffering trying to say the language of the Kiko of the Keys.

The edition is excellent, only lacked my initiative to touch an Underwear ad-lib, where galera all in unison beat palms in accompaniment.

PS: For the uninformed musical comedies: Underwear is the most traditional Chilean rhythm: )

Of direct Kiev to the paulistano chaos and route to the Maceió.

After agreed to help produce an anti-piracy public service address with the RIAA, the government withdrew the $371,000 figure and agreed not to fine him.

JAKARTA METAL FEST 2009


Indonesian heavy metal musicians and their fans will rock Metal Fest 2009 this weekend, Sunday, July 19. News at The Jakarta Globe revealed an exciting news about the country's metal scene and through this concert, it promises an opportunity to see just how far Indonesian metal scene has come.

Jakarta Metal Fest 2009 is the brainchild of event organizer Divisi-20. Yura Lagan, founder of Divisi-20, said Metal Fest was a spinoff of Jakarta Death Fest, which began in 2005 with performances by local extreme heavy metal groups.

Yura said Jakarta Metal Fest 2009 would feature Jakarta bands, as well as bands from around the archipelago that are still building their careers like Kumal from Medan, North Sumatra, and Pernicious Head from Purwokerto, Central Java.

“I wanted to have bands other than the well-known city ones like Seringai and Noxa,” Yuri said. “I saw Kumal when they opened for [German band] Caliban, when they played Jakarta. I only managed to catch their last song, but their mix of Indonesian ethnic music and heavy metal, and their political lyrics in particular, really intrigued me.”

Ari Winarto who will be playing at the festival along with his group Death Valley said, "These kinds of gigs show general audiences that metal can be accepted by the mainstream. It’s not about extreme music — being loud and causing riots — it’s art,” Ari said he was most excited about watching the performance of veteran metal act Mortus.

“For some reason, we always encounter hassles obtaining permission to stage concerts,” Yura said. “But it is never the true metal kids [who cause riots], it is always the same group of guys who come only to stir things up.”

Both Yura and Ari, however, expressed confidence that the festival would come off without a hitch. Ari added, you will not even have to wear a black T-shirt and long wig: “Metal is in the heart. You can be completely naked and still have a heavy-metal soul.”

Kiko Loureiro Talks about Tarja Turunen Summer Tour (Part Two)

Tarja Turunen


Kiko, Tarja and friends.


Part two of Kiko Loureiro's blog post about Tarja Turunen Summer Tour is now available. Read the first part of the story at here. For those who are new about this story, Kiko Loureiro was the guitarist for Tarja's Summer Tour. The complete line-up are as follows:

Tarja Turunen (Vocals)
Mike Terrana Drums (Masterplan, Savage Circus, ex Rage, ex Malmsteen)
Maria Ilmoniemi (Keyboards)
Doug Wimbish Bass (Living Colour, Madonna, Jeff Beck, Rolling Stones)
Kiko Loureiro Guitars (Angra)
Max Lilja Cello (Hevein, ex Apocalyptica)


In his blog, Kiko wrote "Directly of palco of the first show in Budapeste for the “Tour-bus”. "

“Tour-bus” is understood as a cocoon-mother with 12 casulicos. These, called in English language, “bunk”, are the beds. For me, however, more they seem half-open coffins with ventinho and luzinha of reading with one cortininha to guarantee the individuality the optimum style “visits soul” of the Brazilian chains. It is truth also that the cocoon-mother has kitchen, bathroom, video game, films, music and colloquy, much colloquy. Everything this on four wheels is clearly.

In it we travel stretches of 15, 20 and up to 36 hours in this tour.

It is practically a Big Brother of the metal with wheels, but without Peter Bial (fortunately). All there searching its peace spiritual, in a introspective wait, not to defenestrar third or proper itself.
Clearly that following cartilha of the Human Rights, we had right to the sun bath in the stops for the coffee of the morning… do not ask on lunch or supper, therefore sun bath, as we know well for law, is a time alone to the day…

Beyond the band with 6 people, we had in the group the entrepreneur, technician of sound, technician of monitor, technician of light, roadie, tour to manager and two drivers.
A collection of multicultural DNAS: Beyond the Finnish and Brazilian uses a keyboard who you, had English, Turk, Argentine, Americans and Germans.
We were for Romênia in Bucharest, country of the Drácula and later for Eslováquia in a city whose name of so complicated my memory made question to forget.

After each show we always came back to the life of the cocoon. The doubt was always the same one: to enter in the project “vodka in the pass” with the Finnish to sleep anestesiado and to dream there of the house bed, or to hibernar in the tomb to the dry one. The countless hours that we pass in this life of clam, provided the possibility to me to vary on the two subjects.

Some photos of the show of Bucharest for vocês. E is clearly the photo of the bus, that beyond all yellow age. The figure with me is the German driver (it notices that the said one likes yellow… and fortunately in the photo it does not appear the bermuda shorts reasons-samambaias to the style “I am foreign well and I go to use to advantage this sun month with my tropical bermuda shorts”)

More soon!
Homesicknesses

Kiko Loureiro Talks about Tarja Turunen Summer Tour.


Angra's guitarist Kiko Loureiro has posted new update about Tarja Turunen's Summer Tour. Tarja Turunen is an ex-Nightwish vocalist and now pursuing a solo carier. In his blog Kiko wrote,

Of the old world for Brasilis Land I describe here plus some episodes of this travelling life of musician. Not to only pass my anniversary inside of a AirFrance, I was for Budapeste one days before the necessary one. After all who does not have curiosity to know this city historical. One more time with my colleagues Mike Terrana, Doug Wimbish, Max Lilia, Ilmoniemi Maria for the Summer Tour of the Tarja Turunen.

One day of assay to recapitulate 19 musics of the repertoire and to check the equipment and to know my new technician, the Taneli Finn (photo). As show it is show and palco is palco in any place of the world, shares here some photos of my stroll of tourist in the color city ocre as Chico Buarque observed and of native language incompressible coming long ago of the Urais Mounts.

Top 10 Shred Albums

Guitar World's Top 10 Shred Albums of All Time.

1) Rising Force Yngwie Malmsteen I’m laying it on the line right now: Yngwie J. Malmsteen was, is, and always will be the greatest shredder of all time. Hell, he invented the genre with his 1985 debut. The standout track “Far Beyond the Sun” was far beyond what any guitar player had ever imagined possible.

2) Live: Extreme Volume Racer X In the mood for a steaming bowl of notemeal? Check out this 1988 live release from shred poster boys Paul Gilbert and Bruce Bouillet. The best part? There was no pretense of cultural significance with these guys; Racer X was simply speed for the sake of speed.



3) Mind’s Eye Vinnie Moore Only one year after Yngwie unleashed his fury on U.S. shores, Vinnie Moore responded with the “Oh yeah? Check this out” release Mind’s Eye. On “Daydream,” Moore demonstrates his grasp of classical themes and motifs; then, on “The Journey,” he shows he can do it with “feel.”



4) Edge of Insanity Tony MacAlpine The album that launched Mike Varney’s Shrapnel Records, Edge of Insanity shows off Tony MacAlpine’s fearsome shred chops not only on the six-string (“Quarter to Midnight”) but also on the ivories (“Chopin, Prelude 16, Opus 28”).



5) Passion and Warfare Steve Vai Remember the cute MTV video for Vai’s “The Audience Is Listening”? What school-age guitar player didn’t want to live out that fantasy? Melodic, flashy, humorous, and filled with hooks, Passion and Warfare is the bar by which all other instrumental guitar albums are measured.



6) Surfing With the Alien Joe Satriani Just how badass is Joe Satriani? Well, his list of students includes Steve Vai. And “Satch Boogie” was (and still is) the only shred tune that FM radio would touch. But the real highlight of this release is Side 2, which contains the gemini-like clean and distorted tones of “Circles” and “Lords of Karma,” as well as the clean-toned two-handed tapfest “Midnight” and the hypnotic “Echo.”



7) Powers of Ten Shawn Lane From his debut, the now out-of-print Powers of Ten, to his fusion work on Tri-Tone Fascination, the late Shawn Lane exhibited a tremendous sense of melody, even while melting picks with his incendiary technique. If Eric Johnson were a pure shredder, this is what he might sound like.



8) Michael Lee Firkins Michael Lee Firkins A unique shredder, Firkins employed hybrid picking, subtle whammy wobbling, and country-flavored intervallic leaps to craft some surprisingly listenable tunes.



9) Speed Metal Symphony Cacophony Speed Metal Symphony, a mighty opus featuring first-chair guitar virtuosos Marty Friedman and Jason Becker, uses “speed metal” rhythm beds and shifting time signatures to help break up the cacophonous onslaught of all-out shred.



10) Greg Howe Greg Howe A funk-savvy speedster, Greg Howe injected the shred scene with some much-needed shake and soul. The funkdafied “Kick It All Over” kicks off the festivities, and the following track, “The Pepper Shake,” offers a spicy display of Howe’s legato and alternate-picking chops.

Judas Priest talks about Michael Jackson


Judas Priest bassist Ian Hill has been interviewed by Canoe.ca's recently and talks about the death of Michael Jackson and outpouring of grief from his fans.

Ian Hill said “He was an immense star wasn’t he? Let’s face it,” said Hill, who said his death was huge news in England. “He’s a worldwide superstar really and the grief that everybody’s is showing, it doesn’t surprise me at all. He was a very, very talented man. And possibly very troubled but very talented nonetheless and he’s got millions of fans all over the place. It’s big news.”

“We sort of moved in different circles to us,” continued Hill of the Birmingham-bred band. “He was very much a pop star. We’re obviously heavy metal although I’d admire his talents, it’s not the sort of thing that I’d want to go and see. I’ll probably getting flayed online for that but it’s true nonetheless. It’s something I wouldn’t go out of my way to see.” Still, Hill understands those who would be upset they’ll never get to see his comeback. “There’s obviously a lot of people who are heartbroken over his death, there’s a lot of people very disappointed that they’re not going to see his show.”

Hill, whose band plays their only Canadian date at Toronto’s Molson Amphitheatre on July 9 ,said he understands why Jackson didn’t seem to deal with his immense fame very well.
“He never had a normal childhood if you know what I mean? Right from day one he was on a stage singing. It wasn’t like a normal upbringing. All of us, we all had comparitively normal working class childhoods and I think you get your basic life rules from there. And obviously Michael didn’t get that. He was thrust into the limelight from day one really so he got a somewhat different view it seems.”

CHICKENFOOT | NOVA ROCK Festival

New video footage of Chickenfoot performing at Nova Rock festival has been uploaded by fans. As previously mentioned, Chickenfoot is a rock band lined up by musicians Joe Satriani on guitar, drummer Chad Smith , bassist Michael Anthony and vocalist Sammy Hagar.

Chickenfoot LP is packaged in heat-sensitive artwork, which means when you put your hand on the CD inlay, photos of the band members will be revealed behind the Chickenfoot logo! According to Blabbermouth, Chickenfoot's self-titled debut album has sold 199,000 copies in the United States since its release. Chickenfoot first got together more than a year ago when they started jamming in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Although they called the band Chickenfoot at the time, guitarist Joe Satriani told The Pulse of Radio that nobody thought the name would stick.

"Sammy's [Hagar] saying, 'Oh, you know, we can call it Chickenfoot,' and everybody laughs and says, 'Yeah, okay, it'll never be called Chickenfoot, of course, that's a horrible name.' And that's the way it was for about nine months, until finally someone said, 'You know, you can't change it now, everyone's calling you guys Chickenfoot.' So we wound up with that name, I think, quite by accident." (Source, Blabbermouth.net)
