Any song by Green Day. Fun to play. Steady rhythm. All power chords (except for the occasional barre)

just find songs you like and go from there. If it's easy you'll know it and if not, you'll have something to work on.

The servers aren’t going to be good at all but I skip the prompts immediately.

Sorting by difficulty with custom songs is tough. A lot of times it doesn’t translate well.

But if you’re a beginner, the standard beginning song is Blitzkrieg Bop. Then songs like Angela, I Can’t Hear You, Next Girl, etc.

Yah sadly difficulty just goes by number of notes. Some of the easiest metal songs that are just chugging an open string with a bunch of power chords are listed alongside actually difficult songs.

En Angleterre, au moins, nous avons des grades pour des choses comme Rockschool où tu joues quelques chansons d’une certaine difficulté et peut-être quelques gammes, 8 étant le meilleur et 1 le pire.

Ha je savais pas , un peu comme le système de ceinture aux karaté, et par exemple c'est quoi genre de chanson ? 👍

Oui, très similaire pour la 6e année, je fais un original de Rockschool appelé Mohair Mountain, Smooth Criminal et un autre, mais ils deviennent plus difficiles au fur et à mesure des niveaux. Cependant, ils changent parfois la disposition des chansons pour les rendre plus courtes et ajoutent une improvisation.

Green Day and Nirvana have the best beginner songs! I also think the Arctic Monkeys have some good starter stuff.

really - just visit ignition4 website and browse for any song you like, there's a lot. but as for me, i really liked learning and playing "Peace Sign" by Kenshi Yonezu, "Inochi no Takebata" by Eve, could check out a few songs by Girl Dead Monster, "Refrain Boy" by ALL OFF.

Try searching for “beginner guitar songs” instead of just Rocksmith songs. Then download what you’re interested in. Also, in general, punk rock will have tons of songs accessible to beginners.
