pull the curtain has the best solo from UH for sure.

No its a solo. just a strumming one instead of picking.Hentaiman wrote:Just wanted to make it clear, there are no solos in UH, which is disappointing. what you believe to be solos are basic outros that come in after the chorus and serve like, instead of solos, but are not really original or cool like solos, and too short to be solos.
Oh i'm not saying they copy green day (Sums are much more talented) what i mean was Green Day used to do good solos but the ones on American Idiot sucked, so i don't think it's a good thing that solos from songs like UH sounds like they're straight from and AI track.sumfan wrote:ALWAYS with the green day comparisonChapStick wrote:Yeah UH does have a few solos but they are nothing special and just go right over your head, they're the type that you'd expect to hear on a new Green Day album..

YEah i totally agree.ChapStick wrote:Oh i'm not saying they copy green day (Sums are much more talented) what i mean was Green Day used to do good solos but the ones on American Idiot sucked, so i don't think it's a good thing that solos from songs like UH sounds like they're straight from and AI track.sumfan wrote:ALWAYS with the green day comparisonChapStick wrote:Yeah UH does have a few solos but they are nothing special and just go right over your head, they're the type that you'd expect to hear on a new Green Day album..
I mean, i dont really call 'em solos but as for solos, they are really a strumming instrumental and faster version of the song's riff's main chords. that's it.
It's nothing special, nor sounds really cool ,and technically its same chords the riff is based on, like in Underclass Hero.
for me, its not like it sounds like Green Day, its just the style of this riff-based chords solo, sounds like Green day solos from American Idiot.

Well i don't agree with that.
I agree that Thanks for Nothing and Over My Head for example dont have a real solo and following the same American Idiot and Underclass Hero pattern (or do AI and UH follow that pattern) in which the solo is a basic instrumental version of the song's riff's main chord progression, but yet, i think those "solos" in UH are the weakest by Sum 41, and i think even those that werent a real solos in DTLI or AKNF still were better.
Even Handle This has a real very cool solo and they were just getting started back then :P

From what i know, Deryck wrote the most of the solos, excluding The Bitter End, for sure, and another one which i forgot what i was, that i read that Dave wrote (its not surprise, the Bitter End one is crazy and complex).
Yeah, i also heard Deryck did In Too Deep's solo on the record? Which shows that Deryck could do real solos (its tapping!), and everyone underestimate his guitar skills.
Anyone knows what other solos Deryck actually recorded?
i know he wrote most of them but like, never playing them, but since he wrote them i'm pretty sure he can, just not really crazy real solo material like Bitter End or Handle THis.

Handle This isn't "crazy solo" material. Pull The Curtain from Underclass Hero is as complex as that and sounds just as good aswell. Deryck wrote The Hell Song Solo and Dave wrote the Inn Too deep solo but Deryck played it in the studio.
Dave wrote most of Sum 41's solos while he was in the band. Songs like No Brains, Hooch,The Pain For Pleasure songs etc. I'm also pretty sure he wrote the Handle This solo because he plays it in the video and it sounds more like Dave than Deryck.
