Talk:Am I Evil?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Needed: musical analysis
I'm no musicologist, but I can tell this is a particularly complex song musically. I'd like to hear more about the technical aspects particularly in the guitar solo. The guitar solo in particular seems reminiscent of a Baroque fugue. —Ben FrantzDale 17:05, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
- You could say it's a complex song. The riffs aren't very hard to play, but there's a wide variety of them and they can be hard to remember for a while, unless you remember the whole song very well.
- The guitar solo sounds fairly impressive, but isn't that hard. It starts out with some general diatonic scales, but at the end of the first part it makes a sudden jump really high up the fretboard, which can be pretty tricky. The next part contains a wide variety of pull-offs down a diatonic scale in E before moving down to do the same in A, but I think there's a bit of tapping in that part, it sounds like too many notes to just be pull-offs. Then comes the part that's reminiscent of a part at the beginning of the song, where there's a series of pull-offs on the B string that then move up to the E string and segue directly into the most memorable part of the solo, which contains the major amount of tapping. The tapping isn't too complex, but it sounds really cool and almost neo-classical. After he reaches F# is the part that's hardest for me, where he sort of taps a scale down the strings while still keeping the left hand going with the pull-offs. After that it's just some diatonic licks again, then a hold on an A note until the vocals come back in.

Everything being shown like the album cover is Metallica when it should be Diamond Head.
- Metallica can be there too, Diamond Head just needs to be added.
