Working on Roots this evening. I am not sure there is another metal song with more permutations of 1-0-1-0 riffs anywhere in the history of recorded music

Opeth's "The Moor" off of Still life has a killer riff that's mostly 0-1-0-1 goodness lol at the 4:14 mark. Is Roots the In this Moment song?Working on Roots this evening.

Robotuners. Definitely.Bass player and I chatted and he wanted to have a few more runs at home with the songs under his belt before showing up to practice. Had a good jam with everyone else. At a point where we need to hammer some small details and probably drill the songs a bit more to be tight.
Went through Roots and Machine Head without vocals and they were surprisingly banging. Keep circling back around to what physical tuning I want to settle into. FAS VC is great but I would really like to just play a guitar tuned to the key at hand without any additional murkiness from digital latency. Ideally a guitar in C# standard and one in drop C# would be the way to. I don't want to lug that much gear. Transposing songs from drop D to drop B seems like too much of a sonic stretch as well. Moving things like Roots and Machine up to drop C# seems the same. Food for thought for 6 weeks from now![]()
