String Skipping Rhythm Riffs
A more challenging aspect of rhythm (in this I will mainly be referring to metal) is to play technical riffs at a fast tempo which require you to skip strings in the process, with these couple of excerpts from various songs should improve your rhythm technique and could be used to apply to your own riffs.
Slayer – Altar Of Sacrifice (Main Riff)
Megadeth – Poison was the cure (Interlude)
Thrash Away!
