Then you have to write lyrics about:
1. Your beginnings
2. The journey
3. How far you've come
4. The friends you made along the way

Hey guys. Just to specify, I pretty much (95%) always play in Drop C (CGCFAD) for those asking :)

[ThatHitman]

you'd be surprised how often i reference these videos for new ideas

[Kinan.Eldari]

I like that description of Easycore. The middle ground between happy metal and heavier pop-punk.

All you need now is to:
-Replace guitars with 7-string guitars
-Tune down to Drop A#

and you now have

Chunk! No Captain Chunk!

This is seriously such an amazing/fun song listen too -- almost kinda reminds me of something that would show up in a modern Sonic Adventure 2 Battle!

[WimbledonStudios]

you just wrote my entire album in 5 minutes i hate but love you

[paladinplays]

Was the beginning the Pokemon theme? I am like 99% sure. Prophesy... maybe...
Sounds great. Another frickin tune to get stuck in my head today thanks man.

[adamkelemen]

This song is full of energy, so uplifting and makes me feel good! That's what music is about so well done Shady Cicada! :) \m/

I realize knowing scales can help and harmonies make everything cooler/better, but how do you write such good melodies?? I mean, I can play a pretty decent amount of notes but lately I just don't get how people just seem to improvise or easily write in the most beautiful of melodic ways .

I realize maybe the question is too complicated, but I suppose what I mean is, do you have any tips for writing melodies, and/or would you ever consider doing a video on that?

if you read this, thank you, and if not, thank you as well!! P.s. this was another knockout video

all the best!!

Somebody just watching this may not realize how useful it is in practice.

[jedigarrett]

this reminds me of the album "What Separates Me From You" by "A Day To Remember"

Somehow I knew that this was gonna be a thing one day or another.

I'm a psychic.
