If I were going to record a confusing metal tune I'd just have a single note played in a certain pattern for 3 minutes. Maybe dub in some effects later on and have a old church hymm screamed backwards or something.

Strangely enough, there is a very similar song to this, Devolved - Emergence. The intro has half a minute of the one note picked as
-000--000--000--000--. Then goes to a riff that has heavy but tasteful effects. The verse is the same as the intro and the outro, which goes for 2:30 minutes, is the same as the intro too.

Some how they pulled it off and made a reasonable song.



If you wish to confuse, I suggest you start playing a typical love song but sing cannibal corpse style lyrics. Then kick into the metal song.
