Black Sabbath's "Paranoid" is fairly simple and I like it.

Are we allowed to link to Youtube videos? If so, here is the song on Youtube:

If not, feel free to edit the link out of my post. :)

Yeah Youtube is fine, Just not YOUR guitar website, We can't stand it.

Pretty much any Wednesday 13 songs/ Murderdolls/ Dope songs are easy


CHECK OUT MY BAND!

Bands we've shared the stage with: TBD! (for now...)

Oh and Rage Against The Machine songs are usually pretty simple and fun to play.
Ex. Bulls On Parade, Killing In The Name, Bombtrack, Sleep Now In The Fire.

For easy songs i would recommend songs like

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Californiacation
Metallica - Enter Sandman

If you are into the chilli peppers maybe try The Zephyr song its not too hard but still quite rewarding once you have got it down and sounds great even without backup :D
lul wut?

Most any Sabbath song or ACDC song is perfect. You get to work on chords and timing. ;)

For whom the bell tolls (Metallica) is a good beginer song. Easy riffs, and probably one of the easiest metal solos of all time. and it's a cool song too.
