Document Summary
Because of this, the instruments play a larger role in gettign the listener attention. Guitar riffs catches people attention, in this case for example. Double base drum- loud in order to feel the rhythm. The sound of rain at the opening and end- major part of the genre. The punishment due (album: rust in peace) 1990. We get the sense of larger structure in this track- compound form: aba, but each section breaks down into subsections. Harmonization happening in the vocal line - non conventional harmonization. Linking passage: eastern influence comes back- guitar sounds like sytar. Palm mutting- put the palm in the guitar strings to mute the sound. Still hearing riff in the guitar, but we don"t hear the separating gin earlier verses. Short verses, because the music is quite fast, and also there is no verse-chorus form, emphasis is more on the guitar. Ex: melodic death metal: dark tranquility (finish notes)
