Shoegaze & Alt Chords, Vol. 1 (For Standard & Drop D)

Ever wish you had a reference of shoegaze, post-hardcore, and emo chords to help you get through writer's block and come up with some great riffs? That's exactly why I wrote this chord book.

Think of this less like just a bunch of chord charts on a page (although there's 30+ in here!), and more like a collection of sounds to mess around with. Start by finding a shape that catches your ear and riff off of it from there. Along with the chords, you'll get 20 suggested chord progressions to try.

This book is ultimately intended to give you a diving board into something completely your own.

Each page includes charts, as well as sample progressions to get your ideas rolling. Vol 1 is for Standard and Drop D tunings. Happy riffing!
