thefireball25th September 2010ah ha! So this is called power galloping! I always wondered why my favorite riffing style was called. So, new word: I like power-galloping. It gives me a driving feel in guitar playing! Gonna learn it! I hope that everything has been going well, Pavel. (in case you ever check this again)

seagull20th March 2008Awesome lesson Pavel. Very relevant for me as I'm struggling to get Metallica's "Battery" tight.
Indeed a hell of a technique and you nailed it.
Good luck in the future and hope to hear some material from you sometime.

Welcome to another lesson on galloping! Being a fan of symphonic/power metal I created a backing track which suits the style and also tried to make riffs melodic - that's what power metal is all about!
The lesson is 100% alternate picking and all you have to watch for is rhythm and palm muting. There are a couple of backing tracks in case you're new to galloping so you can star off slowly :)
See you inside!
