About this Backing Track:
Here we have a great Alice In Chains backing track for the song ‘Them Bones‘. This song moves from 7/8 time to standard 4/4 in parts so the only way to really get to grips with the guitar parts Danny taught you is to keep rocking out to the track!
Them Bones Guitar Lesson
This Alice In Chains rock guitar lesson will show you how to play ‘Them Bones‘ exactly the way Jerry Cantrell played on the original track. The song is in drop D tuning with the whole guitar then down tuned half a step. This covers a common rock and metal tuning and Danny Gill will take you through the tuning notes before teaching the song. There are some heavy power chord riffs in this one and the fun part is that they're in a 7/8 time signature. This will give you some new ideas for writing your own rock and metal riffs with interesting rhythm and timing. The solo is in true Jerry Cantrell style and has lots of big powerful string bends and wide vibrato so will help you play guitar with feel and dynamics plus giving you some new pentatonic/blues scale rock soloing ideas.
