Retribution - Black Label Society

The hardest song in the game, and the only song in this game that is still un-FC'd. This song was recorded by Black Label Society specifically for release in this game, and it still hasn't been released elsewhere to this day. It's not even in YouTube's copyright system.

Why is this song hard? Well for starters, the main riffs are easily miss-able. The solo, of course, is the hard part (3:20). It may not look too bad, but trust me, this engine makes this damn near impossible. Dayzeed explained how the engine works in a comment on one of his Power Gig videos as follows:

"...The timing is just unnecessarily obtuse for some reason when it gets to be fast. Think GH2's strum limit, but with HOPOs, and with a WAY lower threshold. It's kind of like that. Bizarrely, strumming it all seems to remedy -- or, at least diminish -- the timing pickiness regarding fast HOPO runs."

That was such a massive help. I strummed most of the fast parts in the solo, with exception of the first sets of zigs and the trills. The hardest part, imo, is the end of the solo at 4:03. It's very fast and has forced strums on the O notes, so tapping isn't really viable. Strumming every note would be tough because of how fast it is, and it's overall just very hard to hit on this engine.

I would love to practice this chart on Clone Hero, so if anybody knows of a rechart of this for Clone Hero hmu

AC/DC Live Track Pack starts tomorrow!

I had to do external audio for every song, and the game audio is almost inaudible in most cases. It doesn't seem fair to put you through two and a half weeks of ASMR videos, so I will be including a Google Drive link at the top of each description where you can watch the video with untouched game audio (and no strumming sounds!)
