BABYMETAL - FUTURE METAL (guitar cover)

As a guitarist passionate about metal covers, I found playing BABYMETAL’s FUTURE METAL particularly rewarding due to its complex riffs and energetic pace. Using ESP guitars gave me the clarity and sharp tone needed to replicate the song's aggressive sound while Boss pedals helped add depth and sustain to the guitar lines. One important tip I learned from practicing this cover was the significance of tone shaping using your amplifier settings—in this case, a Marshall amp provided the ideal balance of crunch and brightness. Takayoshi Ohmura’s influence is evident in the technical precision required, which challenges you to master synchronization of fast alternate picking and palm muting. If you're aiming to cover FUTURE METAL yourself, focus on breaking down the solo parts into smaller sections and gradually increase the tempo. Recording yourself while practicing can highlight areas needing improvement and boost your confidence. Overall, this song is a great way to push your guitar skills forward while enjoying the fusion of traditional metal and BABYMETAL’s unique style.
