Maximum the Hormone 'Shimi feat. ATARASHII GAKKO!' (MV Special Ver.) Music Video

“Shimi” by Maximum the Hormone is a track where the deep low end resonates and the intensity really comes through.

The guitar is tuned to Drop C and built around low-pitched riffs, so with fewer strings to fret, it’s relatively straightforward to grasp.

The key is muting the strings you don’t want to ring; focus on controlling that pressure so you can lock in the rhythm cleanly.

Also, the bridge mute is another element that adds sharpness and punch to the song, so paying attention to fine hand placement and subtle movements can be very effective.
