SEPULTURA guitarist Andreas Kisser has penned the foreword to “Brazilian Metal – Brazilian Rhythm Applied To Metal Guitar: New Ways For Riffs Of Guitar”, the new book from CLAUSTROFOBIA and QUARTETO DE GUITARRAS KROMA guitar player Alexandre de Orio.

According to a press release, the first volume of the book, which comes with a free CD, focuses on the connection between the metal and the samba with different rhythmic patterns, musical phrases from percussion instruments and drum beats. Most of the content within this book is applied towards metal guitar. The goal is to improve the technical development in this musical style and create new riffs on the guitar. The mixture of these two genres results in a unique ‘accent.’ Some examples of this Brazilian swing played along with metal will be seen in some guitar riffs created and executed in recording with the drum beats of samba also being played along with the drum beats of rock.”

This book is intended for guitar players and possibly for drum players as well.

There are no other study materials in the market about the mix of Brazilian rhythms with metal.
