IntermediateMetalRhythm Song tutorial8 lessons14m

I'm so excited about this tutorial. I've got three full Djent Styled rhythm tracks for you guys to jam to from my newest collection for "Jam Track Central! http://www.jamtrackcentral.com/artists/al-joseph It's simple. I'm going to play through these for you and then it's your turn. I've got three additional minus one tracks (minus guitar) for you so that you can judge your progress rhythmically. I hope you guys have fun. I'm pretty new to this style but for those of you who already know this style, I believe you're going to have a blast jamming along as well. Cheers, AJ
