How to play “Bloodstains”

I love punk music. I love surf music. So, naturally, Agent Orange is one of my favorites.

There isn’t much to this song. There’s the opening riff, a variation of it, and then a big E5 chord. Really easy to learn, but tons of fun to play.

Mike Palm crafted a great solo for this tune. It utilizes an F# major phrygian scale (1 b2 3 4 5 b6 7), a common melodic base for many surf tunes to great effect.
