Shout at the Devil - Motley Crew

Easy: This is your introduction to Guitar Hero II. The song is simple, focusing on staying on the beat without complex chord formations.

Medium: You'll encounter the blue fret for the first time. The song remains relatively easy, but practice using your pinky finger for the blue fret. For the sequence G-G-G-R G-G-G-Y, you can optionally use a hammer-on for the final notes.

Hard: The choruses present the biggest challenge to maintaining your multiplier. You'll face chord runs that are similar to Expert, including R-Y-B-Y-B-O. You must shift your hand position at the start of this run or on the final orange note, which can be difficult. Occasionally, this run changes to R-Y-B-O-B-R. The verses are ideal for activating Star Power due to their simpler chord patterns and slower tempo, which allows Star Power to last longer. The runs in the verses change but are manageable without shifting. Pay attention to the solo's faster notes, which are on the beat and can be strummed comfortably without large hand movements.

Expert: Expect frequent and repetitive GY, RB, and YO chords during the verses. The R-Y-B-Y-B-O run persists and often coincides with Star Power. The note patterns for verses and choruses are very similar. The solo includes 'trills,' which are sequences of rapid notes. These are made easier by using Hammer-ons/Pull-offs (HO/PO): strum the first note and then alternate between HO/PO for the subsequent notes. Accurate finger placement is still crucial even with HO/PO. The remainder of the song should be familiar.
