- 3/5
Title
A more energetic offering from London rockers Joe Lean And The Jing Jang Jong, "Teenagers" is a catchy track perfect for anyone looking to rock out without having to worry about being note perfect! There are fast paced chord changes and a variety of strumming and picking techniques, however, Dominic shows that the guitar parts are loads of fun to thrash out! The song itself focuses on a great rock riff with various country rock styled lead parts thrown in, including a mini master-class on how to achieve really original sounds by mixing the use of FX pedals and tremolo / whammy bars... Expect some more advanced techniques such as chord slides but there is nothing here that can't be learnt with a bit of practice and enthusiasm!
