writing metal songs... erh, it's all about trial and error. generally when it comes to writing music, it's all about how does it sound to your ears.

the first song you'll write will be your proudest, albeit quite distasteful and incoherent. as you write more songs, you'll improve. trust me on this, i've been there. and when coming to write metal songs, don't try to over complicate things. complicated doesn't mean it's good, unless you have a very well written melody.

for me, i usually write my guitar parts first, which comes from random brainstorms.. then i'll develop it and arrange it to sound coherent and to my taste and liking. bass and drums i'll try to do something that suits the part

amyways good luck, i wanna hear the end product of your ideas
