Metal in F — chord change
Like the catalogue's version in B, this grid uses only two chords (F5 and C5): it's tied with B for the simplest power-chord family on the site. But the colour differs sharply: F5-C5 forms a I-V, the most basic tonic-to-dominant motion there is, while B5-E5 (B) is a minor i-iv, darker.
Tips
First play F5 and C5 separately before chaining them: it's the same move repeated, only the position changes.
Compare by ear with the catalogue's version in B: same vocabulary simplicity, but an opposite colour (major here, minor there).
Play each chord for several beats before moving to the next, and only speed up once the sequence is clean.
