A notoriously difficult section of the Guitar Hero 3 chart "Through the Fire and Flames" by power metal band DragonForce, beginning approximately 3 minutes and 50 seconds into the track and ending with an instrumental bridge. The section is characterized by fast arpeggiating notes that will usually make or break an FC (full combo) of the chart. Synth death is usually done by more skilled players through a method known as "tapping", but can be an extreme point of contention for those who are newer or less experienced at Guitar Hero.
My TTFAF FC run was goingsmoothly up until synth death made me lose my streak and fail.
A musical movement and genre that combines the sensibilities of 1980s Synthpop with elements of the New Wave of the same era. Highly focused around 1980s pop sounds, Synthwave can exist with or without vocals.
