Song: Eric Estrotica
Artist: Man... or Astro-Man?
Album: Is it... Man or Astro-Man?
Notes:
This is a cool example of Star Crunch's rhythmic style and his
use of dissonance to create that feeling of tension. Because it
would be extremely tedious and error prone I can't tab each and
every note in the chord/double stop parts. I can only sketch out
the rhythms.
Intro (rhythm not shown):
------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|
--7-7-...-7-------------------------------------------------------|
--0-0-...-0-------------------------------------------------------|
Main Riff (exact notes are shown here):
|-------------------------------------|---------------------------|
|-------------------------------------|---------------------------|
|-4-----------------------------------|---------------------------|
|----5--4--5-4---4--------------------|---repeat------------------|
|--------------5---5-3---slide-up--7--|---------------------------|
|----------------------------------0--|---------------------------|
The exact number of each note is not displayed here, nor is the
exact rhythm shown (5/7 means hit on 5 then slide up to 7):
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|r
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|e
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|p
|-----4-4-4-4-----5-5-5-5-------------5---------4-----------------|e
|-3-3---------3-3---------------5/7-7---7---3-3---3--3-3-3-3-3----|a
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|t
Again, exact number of notes and rhythm is not displayed, just listen
to the recording to get the feel down:
-------------------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------------------|
-2-2...-2--4-4...-4--5-5-5-5-5-...-----4-4...-4--5-5...-5--7-7...7-|
-3-3...-3--3-3...-3--3-3-3-3-3-...-----5-5...-5--5-5...-5--5-5...5-|
-------------------------------------------------------------------|
More to come....
