Points to take note of when learning to play Darkest Hour's Demon

1 - Alternate picking is one of the main technique used in playing this song. To go fast, you need to hold you pick and show only a tiny bit of the pick when attacking the strings. On top of that, you might want to anchor your picking hand on the guitar body to get more traction when playing.

2 - The main guitar solo portion of the song is also pretty difficult to play. You would need to have a mastery of sweep picking in order to pull this off. For people who have difficulties on this, you might want to practice some left hand and right hand synchronization exercises to get good coordination between your picking and fretting hand.

3 - Get the timing of your guitar playing correct by practicing with a metronome. Believe it or not playing slow (in time) is actually as difficult as playing fast. However, once you can perfect a riff at a slower tempo, it makes things easier when you fasten up the tempo of the song. This is how you build speed at playing the guitar.
