Hi Everyone,


We have one more Target and Pay Per Lesson release for you today, Helter Skelter by The Beatles.


This may be the very first heavy metal and/or punk rock song ever written. At a time when distortion was more of an accident
than a desired tone, and when stomp boxes were barely in existence, the Beatles managed to craft an unbelievably aggressive
sound in this epic hit.


By learning how they used an overdriving amp to create the cacophony of sound, you’ll get a deeper appreciation for the most
common effect we guitarists use today.


In addition you’ll get the inside scoop on all the dissonant harmonies and tension building chords throughout the song.


Finally, you’ll learn how to bend and make your guitar wail like George Harrison did during the short but effective lead licks in
this song.


Enjoy this level 5 lesson!

Another great lesson! Thanks, Max.

Like all great musical trivia stories, there are various accounts of this story. However, supposedly Paul McCartney read an interview with Pete Townshend talking about how with their new song "I Can See For Miles" he was trying to make the heaviest, rockingest, most raucous song, and this gave him the idea to try to do the same and "Helter Skelter" was the result of that.
