This chords are good only for the chorus part? or does this pattern reapets during whole song?

TheRoots1225ver2 :
He is my guitar hero.
mophead02 :
@iIntend2Offend well Overthrown was basically Ryan Knight’s song, he wrote all the difficult parts, so i doubt they could play it live comfortably. But yeah i got the jist when i met em too
iIntend2Offend :
@mophead02 according to Nick Cordle the current lead guitarist he told me at a show that he does not like the album because of the drumming by david cesca which is why theyll prolly never play overthrown
iIntend2Offend :
since when does he use ltd?
mophead02 :
Why the fuck is We Are the Nightmare always ignored????
aaronmiller81 :

marioluigi1234567 :

His tone in this is fucking amazing. Anyone know what he’s running through?
jeffpfeifer1988 :
so when will a diamond for disease by james of arsis be done i would really like to learn that one and noticed when i signed up it was not yet available
danielokust :
this guy really rocks .
GJRM18 :
@ApocryphaGuitarist99 well me to man but Jackson should have giviin him the endorsement either ways and the jackson looked bad ass but its too late now but I saw some footage of arsis plaing and james was using an old Fender Hm series guitar oh and esp knocks off somany guitar brands its not even funny
ApocryphaGuitarist99 :
@GJRM18 Ya Im with you man I hope he dosent give into ESP. I mean Alexi should have stuck with Jackson but they didnt want to give him a sponsership thats why he moved to ESP and pretty much ripped off the USA RR1 I mean he is still a killer player but he wrote better songs with his jackson so well see if James makes the same mistake as alexi or if he decides to be his own person! And look DIME used Washburne for a little while so there haha
GJRM18 :
@ApocryphaGuitarist99 Finally some who agrees with me!!!! Fuck yeah i know what you mean Alexi’s tone was bad ass too and you could tell it was him cause of the Jackson but yeah besides his esp looks like a knock off of his old jackson any ways.but recently I saw a video of him playing an fender hm so i hope he still uses the washburns though
ApocryphaGuitarist99 :
@GJRM18 ya man I really hope he dosen’t give in and start using them! It seems like when players get sponsored by them they lose some of there playing hahaha I mean look at Alexi Laiho when we was using Jacksons he wrote COB’s best music and then he started playing ESP and BAM hahaha So i hope James isn’t using them plus his Washburne is so Badass
GJRM18 :
@ApocryphaGuitarist99 thats exactly what i was thinking man cause he was like one of the few to NOT use esp’s i hope he is not!
ApocryphaGuitarist99 :
Is James now using Esp??? I thought he was using only washburnes cause thats were he has his signature V
DeathMetalMikey :
@Azria032 yes… you should have.
Azria032 :
I KNEW I should have bought an ESP
pimphatandcoat :
might sign up now that James Malone is on jamplay
JamPlayDotCom :
@MetalGuitarChris Hey glad you signed up! My name is Aaron and I am the guy editing James videos currently. I just wanted to let you and everyone know that we are going to be posting a lot of his stuff in the coming month. There are currently 6 technique lessons and an interview segment up in his artist series section. Also if you are a member you can post questions like these right under the videos there where they are more likely to get answered quicker. Take care and hope you like the site.
MetalGuitarChris :
@JamPlayDotCom Thankyou for the quick response, thats very kind that you took the time to respond with such detail
.
I have checked out Kris Norris but am most interested in the arsis songs as they are the main reason I signed up so I was a little dissapointed to find just one rather than the four advertised here, I also cannot seem to find the lesson on practice routines which is advertised in this video either?
JamPlayDotCom :
@MetalGuitarChris There’s 1 up and quite a few more that will be posted soon (we just finished filming him recently and it takes time to edit and post the lessons). Be sure to also check out the “Artist Series” section on the left for more lessons from James. You may also dig stuff from Doc Coyle (God Forbid), Dave Felton (Mushroomhead), and Kris Norris (Darkest Hour) as well.
MetalGuitarChris :
Im signed up to jamplay and can only find one arsis song on there….where are all the others?!
Tdfaria :
omg!! so fucking awsome!! xD
TwentySixCookies :
Love the spectacles.
