How to Play Rhythmic Patterns _ Heavy Metal Guitar

Rhythmic patterns , rhythmic patterns is a very broad subject , but I'd like to talk about a couple important examples in metal guitar playing .

One of them is the gallop .

So Gallup is exactly what it sounds like , kind of like a horse , right ?

OK .

So for that , I'm pressing down , I'm doing a down stroke , two down strokes in a row , the upstroke , then another downs stroke .

OK .

Um I might alternate that with um a chord .

I might do variations on the gallon .

There's also the thrash speed picking where you just pick the low string repeatedly and just like with the Gallup , you can alternate that with the um cords .

So say you do something like this .

Another option is throwing in single notes .

So I might throw in a couple of notes here .
