[edit]Analysis of Article
[edit]Add here the issues you see with your current article that you might address. For instance: The introduction can be expanded and the following categories could all be added
- There is no paragraph on rhythm in blues music
- there kinda tried to merge it with rock but it is definitely its own genre and rock came from blues so it should be in there.
- little to none organization
- no part on metal rhythm, which is very complicated and intricate.
- there is not much on the riff section. and there is nothing about blues riffs which is very prevalent

Revised paragraph from article
[edit]Original
[edit]In some cases, the chord progression is implied with a simplified sequence of two or three notes, sometimes called a "riff", that is repeated throughout the composition. In heavy metal (or just "metal") music, this is typically expanded to more complex sequences comprising a combination of chords, single notes and palm muting. The rhythm guitar part in compositions performed by more technically oriented bands often include riffs employing complex lead guitar techniques. In some genres, especially metal, the audio signal from the rhythm guitar's output is often subsequently heavily distorted by over driving the guitar's amplifier to create a thicker, "crunchier" sound for the palm-muted rhythms.

In heavy metal (or just "metal") music, this is typically expanded to more complex sequences comprising a combination of chords, single notes and palm muting. Also common in metal are repetitive down strokes over dropped bass tuning, like drop C or drop D[4]. In Blues music A set of chords are set about in a multiple of four bars (The rhythm guitar part in 4 bar 12 bar and sometimes 16 or 24 bar progressions.) The blues rhythm guitar lays the base for the entire song with the chords in these bar formations and sets a base for the lead guitar to solo on top of. This is typically set in one key and refrains from crossing keys. compositions performed by more technically oriented bands often include riffs employing complex lead guitar techniques. In some genres, especially metal, the audio signal from the rhythm guitar's output is often subsequently heavily distorted by overdriving the guitar's amplifier to create a thicker, "crunchier" sound for the palm-muted rhythms.
Original Contribution
[edit]Blues rhythm guitar has laid the way for many developments in rock rhythm and even R&B. The influence of blues on rock and roll is quite prevalent, many rock and roll compositions stick to a 12 bar chord progression just like the ones that were originated in blues music. Rock music has often been called "blues with a back beat".[5] Most blues compositions stick to a basic 'bar' pattern (4bar 12bar 16bar 24bar)[1][2] where the rhythm guitar lays foundation for the lead guitar to solo off of. A standard progression is the 1 chord 4 chord and 5 chord[1]. The 1 chord and the 4 chord are cycled back and forth through the song, the 5 chord is often the turn around chord and is played to start the blues progression over[6]. This is the Job of the rhythm guitarist of the setting. These foundations are very imperative for the lead guitar to have, it helps the lead know which key is being played and where the turn around chord is. These bar phases can be quite complicated and consist of a musical phrase with slides and bends, much like a lead guitar, these are called riffs and can be found in many blues songs as the backing. The rhythm guitar In most blues settings plays a series of chords in a pattern. These chord progressions can become more and more complicated, and the
