Songwriting
Q: I’m in a band now and I have to write a song for my band. My band play Death metal. I want to know how to get a creative thing to write my own song and about ear training too. because it’s important for writing song. I can’t hear any note in my head a lot of time. Because of my pitch is bad? Sorry for bad grammar.
A: The best way to write good riffs for metal songs is just to jam with your guitar. See what you can come up with. Learning to hear music in your head and then transfer it to your instrument takes years to develop. You can practice things like singing a random note and matching it with your guitar. You can play a note in your head and match it on guitar. Exercises like this will help you. You will get better at it as your practice. One day you will be able to write entire songs in your head without a guitar in your hand.
