rhythm chord fun Drumony
A new track by French alternative rock band - Phoenix. The band has been around for about a decade receiving international recognition elsewhere but the U.S. Not 'til the release of their latest album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix which helped earn the band a grammy nomination and praise in the U.S. for 2009. The song "1901" (paying tribute to life in old Paris) has been receiving worldwide attention and is currently background music for a recent car ad in the U.S. The playability of the guitar track most notably consists of a lot of two chord notes and some three chord notes. While transitioning between notes you often strum a single note before returning to a steady not too difficult array of chords that can be down-strummed the whole way if you choose. The tune is definitely fun to listen to but doesn't include a whole lot of challenge for your advance/expert RB player. Guitar is fun even without any solos. A nice addition to your RB library I must say.

Starts out simple with some nice synthy held notes, then you go into your typical bass strumming... but then the chorus comes and out of nowhere you start strumming triplets, then quintuplets (is that a thing?), and leading out of the chorus you actually get some bass chords, which is a nice rarity.

Some may think it's nothing special, but I enjoyed the hell out of it when I played it. It kept me on my toes.
