Holdin' On To Black Metal

Holdin' On To Black Metal

Jordan Phillips, from The Kicks, rocks, “Holdin’ On To Black Metal,” by the band, My Morning Jacket.

This song was a featured track on their latest record, Circuital. The song, among others, helped propel Circuital into the Top 200 peaking at number 5 in summer of 2011. It is a riff heavy rock tune with some really cool parts that you'll certainly have fun with.  

Jordan plays a Gibson Firebird V in the lesson.
