In this video we cover the essentials of music theory and metal guitar playing. These are the crucial concepts, the essentials, the foundational insights that will elevate your metal songwriting to new levels.

Ok, maybe this last sentence was excessive. But then again, maybe not? You be the judge!

When I was a beginner and wanted to write songs, I found that a lot of theory concepts weren't catered to metal. Some of the teachings didn't apply.

This is the video I wish I had back then. Hopefully you'll find it useful if you're in a similar place in your songwriting journey.
