In The Court of the Dragon and Sword of Damocles by Trivium. I have all the rhythm parts down, Corey's lead parts are quite challenging though.
Loving it so far

One, The Frayed Ends of Sanity, and Harvester of Sorrow (from ...And Justice for All album). It's difficult to find guitar tabs online back then (late 90's) :)

I've learned the bass-ics of Leon Bridges' Bad Bad News, but now trying to get more comfortable playing the fills and staying in the groove (by ear). Spectacular bassline IMO.

Friedman's Tornado of Souls solo, super cool. Ben Eller to the rescue for all the little tips, tricks and nuances as usual.

Fly Me To The Moon. It's a classic and reasonably simple, but with done interesting harmonic ideas.
