    Thanks for watching and supporting! There's a lot going on in this track so it should keep you busy for a while.
    For those of you purchasing the Guitar Pro session and PDF Tab I've included an extra PDF and session of the intro guitars as they were originally played. This will help you in recreating the part. Download here: timholmanofficial.com/downloads

    Very good! Thank you! I would imagine that somebody attempting to play this is way passed the point of the very detailed "this finger goes here" parts. I guess it's for the brave ones that take the approach of: I will learn to play guitar to play this song! So here I go: Lesson 1. 😂

    Great job Tim! Please do Disciples of the Watch, Eerie Inhabitants or Alone in the Dark next time, I can't understand why no one publishes guitar lessons on how to play Testament songs. They are one of the greatest thrash metal bands of the 80s and Alex Skolnick is a phenomenal guitarist, yet there are almost no tutorials available. Thank you! Lorenzo

    Bro! This video is FANTASTIC! Subb'd! My wife hears me practicing and I'm sure she always thinks there's something missing. I've explained 20 times that when she's listening on the radio, she's often hearing 4 guitar parts played by one person. Then she looks at me like I'm speaking Chinese. The way you laid out the reversed intro in your video shows that so well. I'm gonna make her watch it 30 times, lol.
    I'm still consistently amazed by how heavy Metallica can make standard tuning sound.

    • @TimHolman

    Hi Tim, great lesson as always! Just one question, because every time i listen to blackened I can’t help but notice the timing of the main riff after the solo sounds kinda weird. What are your thoughts on that?

    • @TimHolman
      @TimHolman  2 місяці тому

      There is a slight timing issue with the last couple of beats underneath the solo. Almost like it slows down a fraction. Also, the end of the solo is solidly in 4/4 time. With the 7/4 timing coming back in I could see that sounding weird. I can't think or hear of anything else that's causing an issue.

      Yeah, that tab for Blackened has to be one of the worst tabs I've seen. Virtually nothing is correct. I don't fault them for trying their best back in the day but what I don't understand is why that book is STILL on the market.

    Not trying to step on toes, but are people just unable to learn songs by ear in today’s world? The song is a perfect example of one that you should be able to learn by ear. so I’m being serious when I ask, are you tone deaf and that’s why you can’t learn it on your own without tabs I don’t get it…
