Okay so given my physical limitations I'm not gonna be able to play fast, which to the uneducated one track metalhead, that would be devestating. I, however, see it is a creative opportunity to do something different. Fortunately for me, I do enjoy bands like Candlemass, old Anathema, My Dying Bride, Autopsy, Obituary and Asphyx, but as we all know, let's face it, these bands can get droning and repetetive. Good music captures a feeling, but it should also be able to hold ones attention. My quandry to you is this. What methods, chord shapes, scales, ideas, ANYTHING could I do to make extreme music in this vein, yet keep it interesting? Thanks for your help and advice guys!
