What's your favorite 7 string song to play?

[levitator]

Tell us what your favorite song is to play and why!

My favorite is probably This Dying Soul by Dream Theater. I love playing it because it uses the whole guitar not just B chugging and power chords and the grooves change quite a bit (as DT does). Some of the leads are bitch though.

So far its Epiphany by Tesseract and My Acid Words by Nevermore.

I haven't actually messed with too many seven string songs as i haven't been playing one for very long, though i've been on and off learning icarus lives by periphery.

I don't really learn songs, so I guess my own music?

This, I feel learning other bands music makes you sound like them when you play. I just write.

Same, I never learn a song all the way through. If I want to learn a song, its always just a few riffs here and there. I think the only song I have memorized all the way through is bloodbaths Eaten, and that was just because my friends wanted to cover it.

my acid words and engines of hate by nevermore

 

[The McThief]

Ascension by Born of Osiris! It's got a really cool sounding, fun lead

 

[BucketheadRules]

The River Dragon Has Come, by Nevermore.

since I am a bass player, this is pretty much the only 7 string riff I can play

Kind of but it *is* an excellent learning tool.

The River Dragon Has Come, by Nevermore.

Aside from the solo (hell even the solo when you consider how much a beast Loomis is) that's probably one of their most boring songs to play...

Unless you REALLY like your low B string.

It's like the exact opposite of baseball... Baseball bores me to death to watch, but it's fun to play... I like the song, but it just doesn't keep my attention when trying to play it.

Outworld - Raise Hell

Can't play the solo though.

Not exactly a 7 string song but I play it in 7 strings~~ Part of the Friction from SikTh...

Is that counts?
