A detailed look at the brilliant Edwyn Collins track. The rhythm guitar part sounds great and is super beginner-friendly – just 3 chords. I also discuss the weird envelope filtered verse part and get into some of those fuzz riffs.
Beginner

Bela Lugosi’s Dead by Bauhaus
In this video, I’m taking a look at the 1979 goth classic from Bauhaus. The basic riffs are all pretty easy to play. I also discuss some unconventional techniques you can use to create abstract, atmospheric sounds.

Mannequin by Wire
A punk-poppy classic taken from Wire’s debut album Pink Flag. Form a guitar point of view this is fairly beginner-friendly and an excellent barre chord workout.
