MOORE POWER by Vinnie Moore
TAKE THE 5TH
Vinnie Moore demonstrates a hammer-on technique that forms a tritone, which is two notes that are three whole steps, apart, in either direction. The tritone was at one time infamously referred to by the medieval Catholic Church as diabolus in musica, or “the devil in music,” for its inherently “evil” sound. The “evil” tritone is quite fittingly heard with considerable frequency in heavy metal music, a prime example being the opening figure to the song, “Black Sabbath.”
