Performance Notes
“DEAD INSIDE”
Nita Strauss
THIS NEW TRACK from Nita Strauss’ upcoming second solo album features the rising-star metal guitar goddess collaborating with Disturbed vocalist David Draiman in the creation of a well-written song that strikes the perfect balance between flashy, virtuosic hard-rock riffing and compositional depth, catchiness and appeal.
Nita kindly informed us that she had employed a couple of different guitar tunings for the recorded arrangement of the song, using drop-D down a whole step, or what some refer to as “drop-C” tuning (low to high: C, G, C, F, A, D) for some parts and, for others, such as the main riff in bars 5-8, regular drop-D tuning
