To be honest, I've never seen someone play palm muted powerchords with alternate picking. As long as you are not playing high speed paml muting like for modern Metal, you can easily downstroke your chords which also sounds much better.

Hmm. Something about the way you phrased it made me realize there's a difference between alternate picking a chord and strumming up and down. I think I missed that.Originally Posted by Jimi75

Ahh, but that is precisely what I'm trying to do. I've been watching some videos to try and figure out if these fast metal chugs are alt-picking but they're so fast I can't tell! :-)
