So, what songs out there do you think are the hardest to play and why?

As everyone knows, I think that technical metal, progressive metal bands compose songs that are extremely difficult to emmulate..I actually don't know of many bands that cover progressive metal, at least not here where I live...even if they did, they only ever wind up covering one..I'm not talking about well-known bands here...I'm talking about bands that you guys are in...so yea, what songs do you think are the hardest to play? Also, a lot of death metal/black metal riffs seem pretty difficult...and speed metal...I dunno...

To Tame a Land. im working on painkiller right now, not hard but its fun

To Tame a Land is hard on the bass? i didn't notice that lol, but Painkiller, like every other Priest song, is pretty easy on the bass.

@anyone there was one song by Dimmu Borgir where at one point, there were some REAL FAST AS SHIT bass drums. can anyone help me with that?

to tame a land isnt so much hard as it is fast. and i play with my fingers so it makes for a more enjoyable time. and i think the dimmu song youre looking for is "The Chosen Legacy" off of In Sorte Diaboli.

well, you're right, it is fast as hell, but i wasn't thinking about that one, it was one with a drum intro, and the drums weren't as hardcore throughout the song, but there was one point where they go light-speed..

I have tried it on the guitar. Im still working on the solos but they are difficult as shit to learn. The rest is not to bad.


Symphony X songs are pretty hard as shit to learn.

I recently wrote a song that's a bitch to play for me. As for other stuff, I have a lot of trouble with Blackened and Dyers Eve for some reason.

I'm starting to learn Hangar 18 and as TormentoR said the riffs are actualy easy but the solos are giving me some hard time both to memorize and play. Just taking a look at the entire tab makes me think two times lol ... but challenges always fun and satisfied in the end.

@Soulreaper: What i usualy do is learn it and mechanize it at a slower speed after that i just increase the tempo, sometimes i do it even without notice it, if i have any doubt about a single note its enough to mess up all the solo.
