    Its hard to say for just a part or half of your song, the starter riffs sounds better in C the second part and the palm mute in G and then the sliding part sound better in A !! Although you can play the whole thing in G and change the riffs to sound like C and A its up to you. BTW what king of harmonizer you use ?? I bought a Whammy DT so i don't have to swap my guitar to tune up or down and i can tune up or down anywhere in the song and i can play with the Whammy which is so fun.

    Probably late to the game here, but I like drop C... drop A sounded almost like a Trivium clone, but drop C sounded unique. Drop G didn't sound good, maybe the guy who said the strings were too thin for this low tuning had the right idea. In any case, good one!

  • @serpentsbane9166

    Not a Metalcore guy, although I do own a few albums that I love (Atreyu debut album, Bleeding Through - Portrait of the Goddess, Sonic Syndicate - Only Inhuman, 36 Crazyfists - The Tide and It's Takers) My favorite Metal styles are Power Metal, Slam, all Death Metal variations, Black Metal, Traditional Heavy Metal; so this is my take. Drop C sounds like that typical 2000's Metalcore style that was derivative of At The Gates - Slaughter of the Soul. Keep your song it in this tuning if you want to retain that distinct Metalcore vibe. Reminds me of Thunder & Lightning - Slice of Life, and IR (InsaneRattles) - Irradiation. (This band is actually BOTH Metalcore and Power Metal! ) Drop A sounds like the riffs regressed back to Melodic Death Metal (akin to Amon Amarth,) a style when played by most bands is really just down-tuned Power Metal with cookie monster vocals instead of regular singing, reminds me of No Other God - Take It By Storm, Rob Rock - Eyes of Eternity, Sonata Arctica - Reckoning Night. Drop G sounds closer to modern Power Metal than Melodic Death Metal despite being heavier, with a lot of newer bands tuning lower, which seemingly doesn't get any attention from the plethora of various other Metal guys when discussing modern Metal bands tuning low. Reminded me of Stormlord - Gorgon Rising, and Kitsune Metaru - New Order Kitsune. I hope this information was in any way useful or informative to you, or anyone reading this post! Have a great day, and Keep Rocking! \m/

    Go Drop A. I love Drop C and Drop A can be a little low but because of the nature of this particular riff, Drop A, I think, is the best. Parkway Drive vibes.

    i liked the drop a the most for this riff specifically. drop g and lower is better to me for bouncy djent stuff, drop c would be better if it was more jumpy or even faster bpm in my opinion, i think drop A just lays the right tones down for your spacing throughout the riff with how you structured it as well.

    Drop A sounds like old amon amarth. Drop C probably takes the cake here, but largely because the EQ sounded off for the lower tunings IMO. The A and G strings sounded a bit too floppy. Edit: If tone wasn't a factor, I think it sounds best in drop A
