This is the first proper metal track I've recorded so far. A wee bit of a boogie during which I discovered the guitar I originally recorded it with had terrible intonation, so I had to rerecord the entire thing. I wish now I'd tuned down to D or C rather than using concert pitch.

A notable takeaway from this week's song - it's much better to record your guide guitar parts, then program the drums, and only then record your final guitar tracks.
As a result of not having the time to re-record the guitar parts (again...), my drum parts had to match my sloppy on-the-click-around-the-click playing and the whole piece suffers as a consequence of being unable to tighten the quantising.
Lesson learned.
I apologize for the seizure inducing gif, it didn't look that offensive in the preview 
eeek!
