This is the rhythm skank for this song.
If you aren't familiar with reggae music,
skanking is a technique where you don't
actually press down on the strings but
just place your fingers over the fret,
similar to what you would do if you were
playing harmonics, but pressing down just
slightly, without the strings touching the
fret, so that you don't get the harmonic, nor
do you get the notes sounding out. It should
sound like a scratching sound and is played on
the & of the beat inbetween where the bass drum
and snare are usually played.
This song uses just these two chords, howerer,
the pattern changes slightly towards the end of
the song.
Please rate.
