New site? Maybe some day. 
|
|
I can't find anything on it. I've found tabs to their songs (which are fucking hard to learn by the way), but it doesn't say anything about the scales. |
|
|
Wait, are we under the impression that they just use one scale? I mean, I don't know that this isn't the case, but it seems weird. |
|
|
melodic minor, harmonic minor, minor, major arpeggios, minor arpeggios,
arpeggios from hell, oh yea and====> DIMINISHED<=====. DUH
good luck learning it, the leads are so fuckin tough. STABWOUND!!!!!!!!! (a lot better than the new stabwound song by some local band) teehee, that's a good song too though.
|
|
|
ps, i want credit on the next song you write that is all necrophagist sounding.
|

Good point. I'm assuming they use more than one. |

I also know the scales are a neo-classical style thing. That's about it. Definitely keeping that stuff in mind. Thanks! |
|
|
Mostly harmonic minor with diminished arpeggios. I'm not a big fan, but they do use a lot of neo-classical ideas. So, there's probably some IV, or V chords in minor, neopolitan chords...(flat major 2nd)... |
|
|
learn the shit i was talkin about, you will find that it sounds neoclassical if you learn how. |
|
|
LIKE DIS? |
|
|
Yes. You'll find that there isn't a big difference in chords between Necrophagist and a lot of the more dissonant power/symphonic metal bands. Necrophagist will just probably use more diminished (and even more wanking). |
|
|
pick this up. it will aid in your shredding desires. |
|
|
they write in metalcore choruses scale |
|
|
I'd focus on Harmonic Minor and Diminished for Necrophagist sounding stuff. |
|
|
Muhammad doesn't use "scales" he just writes what sounds good. I've never really understood this "omg wut scale does iron maiden play in?" type questions. Doesn't really matter. Don't base your writing around scales or it'll come out shitty most of the time.
Necrophagist does A LOT of minor 3rd harmonies A LOT. |

Almost everyone writes around scales, whether they know it or not. And no, it doesn't come out shitty if you know music theory.
As for writing in moving minor 3rd harmonies...That generally indicates DIMINISHED. |
|
|
since when does harmonizing in a minor 3rd indicate diminished? you can harmonize anything in thirds. and it's my theory that you should know theory but use it a way to explore your own way of playing. theory is a theory, and is not the only way you can play music. just don't suck. |

that said, archaeon is the best guitarist to have responded so far.... next to me obviously. |
|
|
i chuckled a little when i saw this thread. |
|
|
blue are you any good at soloing? |
|
|
no, but ive been working on getting my necrophagist scales down though. |
|
|
hahaha, necrophagist scale > nile scale w000t |
|
|
Muhammed goes back in time with Petrucci and watches the caved00ds' reactions to them appearing out of nowhere and gets inspired by the troglodytic confusion and chaos. hence Necrophagist's last album |
|
|
|

Grant is a better guitarist than Muhammad. He wrote all of the Necrophagist songs like ten years ago. Muhammad hacked his computer, got his guitar pro files and started Necrophagist.
That being said, Necrophagist only plays in Archaeon scales. |
|
|
special K with those dehydrated strawberries? MmMmMmMmMmmm |
|
|
Fuck Muhammad. Homely cocksucker is lucky he can shred. If homeboy wasn't a thoroughbred roundmouth, I'd have masturbation-grade video footage of Decapitated's last set at the Palladium. Tourmates mock him and his own label can barely tolerate that Turkish midget dicklicker. |
|
|
haha goatman!  |
|
|
Neapolitan! That's as far as I need to read.
Necrophagist have really tough riffs. |
|

people who spend time learning scales are the shit. When you familiarize yourself with scales you learn the particular emotion that they convey, which all scales do in varying ways, and the more of them you know, the better you can express a particular riff. |
|

It's all about
5 8
5 8
5 7
5 7
5 7
5 8
All day everyday. Pentatonic powers rules and Zakk wylde uses this scale religiously like a science so I'm all over that shit. |
|
|
Don't forget to throw in shameless use of pinch harmonics to round off that wonderful style of playing. |
|
|
Yeah and Zakk Wylde is God right? Think I'm gonna pick myself up a bullseye les paul with EMG's and start trying to play some rock. Fuck death metal.
In other words, I couldn't care less about Zakk Wylde. |
|
|
Zakk is a great accomplished musician. He pretty much refined pinch harmonics and they're definately his signature. Don't be jealous you didn't think of it first. If you met zakk you'd probably shit your pants, tell him how good he is and beg for an autograph. Keep dreaming on the RTTP and zakk will continue to make a living doin music getting paid for it while your band is lucky to make 80 bucks at obriens |

I actually walk around with my pants full of feces just in case I happen to meet Zakk Wylde. So far it hasn't come up, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW. |

I'm pretty sure Zakk Wylde didn't make the pinch harmonic, and I'm also pretty sure that about 90% of the bands I listen to have more talent than Zakk Wylde ever will. So in other words Zakk Wylde can blow me. |
|
|
It's all about how many tix you can sell and I'd venture to say zakk fills more seats than 100% of the bands you listen to combined. Zakk is a shred god virtuoso and he has the rock star looks to go with it. 100% of the bands you listen to look like something out of a horror movie or just retards dressing up like its halloween and they've had such difficult lives. Plus zakk can sing and i'm sure 100% of the bands you listen to have a singer that crawls out of a trash can demanding cookies. Get over it. Zakk has it all. |

HaHaha -- why is anybody arguing with this guy? |
|
|
That's the biggest boast I've ever heard about anybody. |
|

LFAZ is right, not even gonna bother with this kid anymore. |
