What’s Gods Fav Chord ?
Gsus
I love it haha
XD
Good one
Did you know that Jesus was into Testament? Well, he only likes the old testament tho
Jesus in reverse sound like sausage
This just opened up a whole new door for me! I took the content in this video and set it to the tuning I have been playing most recently and it blew my fucking mind! I just wrote a chorus and verse using what you thought in this video and my emotion at that time. Thank you Sir.
Really like the way you use the insert chord graphic - takes out the guesswork. Nice Job!
first the fretboard and now chords? thanks a huge amount Ray!
I love these videos. Thank you so much it really really helps me out.
Of course Sergio! I’m so glad you’re getting something out of them!
Damn this channel is underrated. Loved your lesson man. Simple straight to the point.
These are awesome lessons my dude!
Thank so much good sir! I knew most of the chords from before but now I know their names as well Thank you so much again!!!
Hey this guy is great 👍🏼 you got to love it , I like the teaching style and I learned a ton...very very bad ass my man 💪🏼
Once I started using inversions then my playing really took off along with finally understanding Modes. I started playing guitar in about 1988 - 1989. My teacher wasn't really big into learning a lot of theory but he did explain how to build chords to me. Chord Theory is at the top of my list when someone asks me to explain music theory to them. Also knowing what notes in a key are the major/minor chords is important. I think everything else falls under those two things.
These are so great. I have scoured you tube, looking for metal theory to actually apply. Hope you make more of these. And from one vet to another thanks for your service.
Hey thanks so much! I offer provide lessons if you’re interested
Thank you for the video, and thank you for your service!
Hey thanks so much!
You inspired me. Thank you 😊
Subbed ! Great lesson bro thank you !
Cool man I'll be using this tips on my music
Awesome vid, good info!
Thanks Lenin!
Thank you soooo much for these lessons! Could you do some lessons based around drop B? Keep up the awesome work!
Great video thanks for sharing
Awesome video!
For any jazz students (like me) that are here. The 135 chord is a "shell" shell voicing, shell chord, whatever.
Really really good video man
love you man! thanx!!!
Anytime boss🤘🏼 I’ll keep them coming!
You had me at "Rinky Dink" pmsl. subbed. I know a bit of theory when it comes to chord building but as you put it, rinky dink wasnt cutting it. great to see some context. Cheers
hey thanks so much Will! Happy to help!
Thank you man
Good stuff man. Chord construction gets cloudy for a lot of people, including myself sometimes still, when it comes to drop tuning. Especially when you add in that 7th string. Really cool to show everyone that there's so much more to drop tuning other than your typical one finger bar style haha. Years back, I printed out a bunch of blank fretboard pages and wrote in all of these chord shapes and studied the sh*t out of them. Standard AND dropped, just because the dropped construction wasn't easily available to find. Really helped. I highly recommend to any player, no matter what level, to learn chord construction and chord theory. Haha, I know guys who've played for 30 years that still don't fully "understand" what they're actually playing half the time. When you can quickly relate to where all your 2nds, 3rds, 4ths, 5ths, 6ths, & 7ths are, just in relation to where your roots are, it opens up a whole new world, AND helps tremendously with your lead/solo playing as well. For some reason, there's not a lot of lessons on this type of thing on CZcams for drop tunings, so cool to see someone tackle it. A good video on how to use these chords in relation to song structures would be super popular too. Such as how to actually use Sus, Dim, Aug, Dom, etc chords properly in structuring a song. What they lead into, what sounds good with what, that type of lesson. Not a lot of that stuff available on the metal side of things. Nice work dude 👊
I always called the “floods” chord stacked 5ths. Glad i know the proper name now. New to your channel Ray and i love it. Glad to see you show love to Pantera. We have similar styles keep it up and always excited to see a new video come up on my subscriptions. Thanks man.
Hey thanks buddy for the support! Yeah man gotta show some love for pantera. And like I said the add 9 chords have several names I’ve heard the stacked 5th name as well as stacked power chords so you’re not wrong. I’ve got plenty more ideas to go so thank you again for supporting me!
Stay Metal Ray where are you located because i have an amp i seeked out for 7 years thats next to impossible to find in the U.S. and if you were close enough id gladly let you borrow it to put it through its paces. Im near Philadelphia in Pennsylvania.
I’m very interested. I’m in Delaware county you?
Stay Metal Ray bucks county. My fiancé is originally from Media.
@@youngmike8645 no way Im from bucks county! I went to Pennridge. Small world haha
Do ré mi fa sol la si dooooooo!!!!
Sung with a growly evil voice. 😁
Looking forward for the inversions. 😉
Thanks
Awesome man thanks I'll be using this in my music (Death by poisoning is my project)
Your add 9 is actually a sus 2 because you’re not adding to the shell 1 3 5, you are replacing the 3 with a 2. It often gets confused
It’s an add 9 power chord
Stay Metal Ray if you were playing the 3rd along with the root, fifth, and ninth yes, unless you were and I wasn’t paying attention, it looked like you were only on root fifth and ninth. Either way I’m not trying to play know it all on your videos, you do great work Ray and I could’ve used videos like this when I was starting out
It’s all good man. But an add 9 power chord is 1 5 9
Stay Metal Ray but the whole point of an add chord is that you’re adding on to either a major or a minor, without the major or minor chord to define the chord, you’re left with a sus2. You must have a triad (135) in order for the 9 to qualify as an add chord. An add9 power chord doesn’t exist
@@EDAR96 that Is true a power chord isn't major nor minor it's an interval
When I was playing in jazz band in HS, always playing those broken 7th chords, I though "You know add some pedal points and some distortion and this can be metal AF". This video can teach you how!
You should make a playlist of all the music theory videos
I have issues stretching my hands to the 5 on the chords. Just keep stretching to make it easier right?
I pledge myself,... to your teachings
great video
Thanks!
I really want to learn these chords, struggle because my hands are quite small and it’s too much of a stretch from the 1st to 5th.
You’re a good instructor, thanks for time and effort! A test of Diezel Herbert MK3 would be awesome! The videos I’ve seen on them sound GREAT. I need to sell gear and start saving$$$. Want one bad. Take care brother
Thanks buddy!!! Yeah man I’m trying so hard to get a diezel one day. Either a Herbert or a vh4. One dayyyy
I hear ya on the “one day”! Hard shelling out $3-4g on a head......yw btw. 👍💪

Same here man
sampling this first cord
i still have the same exact problem, I'm gonna be watching a sh#t ton of videos to better understand music theory, it seems so simple yet so difficult to grasp
How to make metal chord progression sir pls teach us.
What's the name of that guitar? It's beautiful! Want to buy one.
5 minutes a day. took me 3 days to watch this
Hey, let's make some chords! Lesson 1 is learn how to grow your fingers to at least double length!
So for 12:41 you were only able to build it that way bc you’re in drop tuning right?
Great video and rarely tapped on subject in metal "chord theory". Heck not even the lead guitar player from periphery can tell you what chords he's playing LOL.
There's no lead guitar, lol. All their roles are swappable
Yo bruh fking hell I have the same problem I had been playing for so long but my chord progression fkin sucks but you light me up with your tutorial.... Thank you bruh but yeah like they always say befor you become fast you play slow I jump from fast to slow 😂😂😂😂
I Still don't have that knowledge to understand what are you talking about. But I promise that I will be back stronger.
Wish you used standard tuning 6 string first
For me, somewhat of a beginner, these are great!
Thank you so much man! That’s the best thing I can hear!
Of course, all theory applies to metal as it does to any other type of music, through knowing it one finds what sound "metal" and what does not.
I can guarantee you everyone here is mad at themselves for not taking theory seriously earlier 😂
Dude, how do you get those long ass stretched chords like that D minor playing fast metal rhythm? You're around my height maybe a little shorter. It's like the equivalent of Van Dam doing the splits. LoL but seriously man. I need metal guitar help.
I can play just about every vitalism and periphery song and still couldn't tell you what the name of the chord I'm playing is lol I just know what they sound like.
Really great helper for people trying to learn some new tips or trying to learn how to write metal or songs in general really.. however from a "by the book" point of view, you probably are actually teaching some bad habits and ideas to anyone that is truly a beginner. I'm hoping you take this as a positive criticism, not an insult, but I think there's maybe too much information being squeezed into a short amount of time so you can't fully explain the ideas. The root is such an important concept in terms of chord structure, and it was kind of breezed over. Not all chords are really the same, or to be treated as such just because they have the same notes. Overall though I liked the video! You clearly know what you're talking about, but maybe try being more in depth and take it a little slower. I know everyone wants to learn how to shred right away. But it takes time!
Well you’re welcome to make your own video, Brandon. Thanks for stopping in!
I'm gonna subscribe to you :D
Should make this video again without drop tunning
The floods chord is also the message in a bottle chord lol
11:12 Pantera Flood
First who liked🤘
Hell yeah buddy!!!
Too stupid to understand all😢 but still opened something new for me.
It’s so metal to talk about music theory on a drop A guitar 😂 Love it, btw, but it’s a bit hard to follow for this metal n00b with all his guitars still in E standard. Best I could do is work from drop D and just only look at the shapes, skip the note names. I bet there’s a lot of metal heads who love that you spoke their language for a change, though!
Same, i feel it. Very informativev video but still a noob so im gonna save it for alater
Nice video and nice flag, +1 sub
Hey thanks!
/bow
Hey bro! I know! You are spiderman!
im not gonna play rinky dink music either
I hate music theory, I'm just here for the tabs💀
jarhead
CED is a sus 2. The power chord is a add9 no 3rd
To fast for me can’t get it to work , guitar isn’t for me
add 9 chord drop 3 octave key abc 7th high d and power chord the shit out of it then put it wherever u want to build chords while chording the building of d root 5th x's 3.14 equals what the actual fuck are you even talking about?
People who use 6string standard tuning: :(
Good stuff but don't talk so much
..look at jake lizzios videos n adapt..he's bang on target
I play all these chords and never knew what they were this is abd ass
Almost 15 min I thought u gonna play guitar totally dispointed
