What are some easy metal songs that are good for a beginner to play on acoustic guitar (and I do have a teacher)? So far I've been playing Iron Man (minus the solo), Smoke On The Water, and a small bit of Master of Puppets, simple stuff like that, also Poets of the Fall-Late Goodbye. Catchier songs would be great.

Metal Acoustic Guitar Songs

Whiskey In The JarIn this tutorial, Eric Barnett will teach you 'Whiskey in the Jar', as made famous by Metallica. Windows 7 screen upside down fix. Eric will introduce the tune and go over gear and tone, then dig into the verse and chorus rhythms before he gets into the 1st chorus, then the bridge. The 2nd and 3rd choruses are next followed by a 3rd guitar part, then we're into the solo rhythm and solo. We'll look at the harmony guitars, the breakdown, and the outro before we do full and 1 guitar play alongs, then we'll do a jam along. Unholy ConfessionsIn this tutorial we are going to take a look at how to play 'Unholy Confessions' as made famous by Avenged Sevenfold.

This modern metal song features a ton of great rhythm guitar playing along with lots of cool stuff you can play with another guitar player. We'll look at the chord movement, the great rhythm playing and breaks, the use of octaves, and the riffing and licks. The track is a little tricky to play so make sure you are plenty warmed up before you get going, and pay special close attention to some of the cool guitar harmonies that take place.
