Threat Signal - Uncensored

Advanced-Crazy!MetalCool Riffs Song tutorial2 lessons3m

I was listening to a lot of Born of Osiris at the time of writing the solo and ending lick to “Uncensored”. I went for a really Jason Richardson type sound, but still with my style of writing mixed in.  The solo to this song is split into two parts. I play the first part and Chris Feener plays the second part. We both went for a kind of crazy diminished type approach. This song overall is pretty heavy and evil sounding, so we tried to keep that sound in the leads as well. In this solo you'll be using alternate picking, legato, and sweep picking. There's also a bit of string skipping involved, so make sure there's no excessive noise from strings ringing out.
