The Black Dahlia Murder - Matriarch Rhythm Playthrough

  • Playing through the rhythm guitars of Matriarch, this was the first single from Nightbringers and for sure my quickest paced song, relentless on both hands. I've already done the solo cover on here so I figured I'd just rock the rhythm and show the riffs some love.
    I used Moises to rip the drums/bass from the studio mix and played over it in one live take here. Rather than dubbing the harmonies in the background I figured I would just switch it up this time and play both parts in succession, I know some people prefer the guitar not to be masked by layers. It is always tricky to dial in a studio sounding mix with just one mono guitar but I think I've found a nice stereo spreading plugin (Brainworx Stereomaker).
    This video goes along with my 40 minute lesson on Patreon explaining how to play all of these riffs and how I come up with the harmonies. You can find that below!

    GOD the little subtleties that you throw into these songs are nothing short of beautiful. Like how you changed up the way you played the chord at 1:01 just for that one second.
    It's those small things that make it so amazing to listen to.

      ​@@MrKilllthelightt At 1:01 time mark it's G string on 5th fret and D string on the 7th.
      It's very brief but definitely adds that "spicy flavor" to this either way catchy, mesmerizing riff.

      @BrandonEllisGtr  10 місяців тому +5

      The additional frets does not change the scale length or anything about the guitar other than a longer fretboard and the body accomodating the access. BUT this guitar happens to have a 25.1" scale because I wanted it to feel like an HM Strat. So the highest frets are very close together

    • @mattwilliamsonguitar
      @mattwilliamsonguitar 8 місяців тому +1

      It really is just practice for that IMO. When I was first learning, someone told me "not to become a three fingered guitarist" and I took that very seriously, so from day one I've always tried to use my pinky even if it was possible to use the ring finger.
      You just have to do it and stick to it. I'm guessing it's a lot harder to undo the lack of using it than to just learn with it.
