This song is a good song to practice picking. The tuning is in Standard D, so every string tuned one tone down. Watch out for the repetitions and make sure to have a lot of distortion to play the solo.

This song is great for practicing alternate picking. The intro pattern is quite challenging. The tuning for this song is Dropped C, which means that all your strings are one tone lower than Standard tuning, but your 6th string is a C. During the Verse, only the chords on the 6th string are palm muted.

This song is a very interesting fingerpicking style. The finger pattern changes throughout the song, sometimes from one measure to another, so pay careful attention to that. Also, use the chords written above the measures to help you get the right chord shape. In the actual song, there is another guitar that strums the chords and plays some hammer ons.

This song is quite interesting to play. It starts simple, but once you get to the bridge, the octaves will make you move your fingers a lot. What is nice with that part it that the guitar player has to go back to the regular chords in between playing the lead part in octaves. The X in the chorus means that you play muted strings. Watch out for the measure of 6/4 and the repeat signs. Chords with a slash like D5/A are power chords played on the A string, but your finger bars also the E string which gives you a reverse power chord.
