‘Paranoid’ from the 1970 album of the same name and is one of the most famous rock tracks by legendary band ‘Black Sabbath’.

The album, with Tony Iommi on guitar, was famously recorded in only 5 days. With loads of great tracks it remains a classic to this day. We’ve arranged the first part of the song so you can play it. The guitar uses lots of techniques covered in Level 4 of Electric Guitar Coach like palm muting, the barre, and hammer-ons, and it is all based around power chords.

The guitar uses heavy distortion and the secret to playing it well is to go for it and don’t worry about the details.

This track signals the end of Level 4. Electric Guitar Coach’s course of lessons are pretty intensive so when you’ve finished this track you may want to take a breather and go over some of the things you’ve learnt so far.

Level 5 is full of great things to learn and lots of new techniques and ideas. When you’re ready to move on, you can get into the finger picking that starts off Technique 5.
