Quiet Riot - Come on Feel the Noize - Guitar Tab

About Come on Feel the Noize

At 120 BPM in Eb Standard tuning, "Come on Feel the Noize" sits in a sweet spot where the tempo is comfortable but the energy demands that every power chord lands with conviction. The song is built almost entirely on driving, down-stroked power chords, so your picking-hand endurance and consistency of attack are what actually get tested over a full playthrough. Because the tuning drops everything a half-step down to Eb, you get a slightly heavier, looser feel on the strings, which is part of the reason the riff sounds so thick. Quiet Riot recorded this as a cover of the Slade original, but they pushed the arrangement into pure Heavy Metal territory with a wall-of-guitars production. The chord transitions in the verses are straightforward, but keeping your rhythm tight through the chorus at full volume is where players tend to slip. Use the Practice Toolbar to loop that chorus riff slowed down until the down-strokes feel locked in before bringing it back up to tempo.

• The song is played in Eb Standard tuning, dropping every string a half-step down, which adds low-end weight to the power chord riff.
• At 120 BPM the rhythm part relies heavily on consistent down-stroked power chords, making right-hand endurance a key thing to develop.
• The chorus riff repeats with little variation, so drilling it cleanly with the Practice Toolbar slowed down will lock in the feel quickly.
