I love death and thrash metal a lot. I can occasionally write some really solid riffs that I feel are representative of what I like normally.

However...

My best work is the simple acoustic stuff I write when I'm bored and don't feel like plugging an amp in. I don't even like the kind of music it ends up falling into normally, but I guess I can write it.

How do you feel about Rob Zombie?

[–] PastorHaggis@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not my favorite. He's got a couple solid songs but the rest isn't my jam. My style is more Death in the death metal genre, or Metallica in thrash.

Metallic is solid, for sure. I also like disturbed.

I'm not sure if I would call it a problem but I'm in the same situation where my kids and partner do not like metal and when I started learning had to go through the grandpas guitar road as it is the most accessible one.

The probable second issue I had is that a lot of metal songs I like use drop D or even lower and that was hard to keep tuned with beginner's gauge.
