Starmartyr Tab

by My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult


"Starmartyr" by My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult
and there's nothing you can do about it.


This song is in extra-standard tuning, as in "E-A-D-G from low to high".

As near as I can guess, the entire song is slapped.
 
I know for a FACT that this isn't 100% accurate, but I think it's pretty close. 
At least I hope it is. 
If you figure out any corrections, please tell me. Otherwise, no.

First part:       
G---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
D--5h7-5----------------5----------5-----------------------------------------
A---------7-----5h7--x------5h7--x------7----5----3--3h5--x---3--------------
E-----------------------------------------------------------------5--5-------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D--7---5-----------------5-------------5-----------------------------------.-|
A----------7-----5h7--x-------5h7---x----------7---5--3-3---5-5---3--------.-|
E--------------------------------------------------------------------5-------|
The preceding is the main part of the song. 
You should be able to tell where else it shows up, hopefully.

There's a part with no bass and then:
G--------------------------------------------------------------|
D-5h7--5---------------5------------7--5-------------5-------.-|
A----------7----5h7--x------5h7------------7-----5h7-----5h7-.-|
E--------------------------------------------------------------|
That /\ repeats a few times and then:
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-5--5--5--3--3--3--3--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0---

which is the easy part. The next "riff" is kind of built off the same thing, 
but but with octaves and it's fast as hell. Ouch.

------------------------------------------------------------
-------7---------5------5---------2----------2--------------
------------------------------------------------------------
5-5--5----3-3--3----3-3---0-0--0-----0-0--0------0-0---3----
Then the first part.


Uh.: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------5h7-------5------5h7---------------5h7-----------5h7-------------5-
-----------------------------7-----------------------------------5/7--------
--5-5--5-------5-5-------------------5-5--5--------5-5--5-------------------
12X |___/\__|

There comes another part with very little or no bass. I think there might be 
some slapped dead note open A's in there, though.

This part is a modification of the really easy part from earlier:
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------
--5--5--5--5--0--0--0--0--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3---

Then comes what I consider to be the most difficult part of the song:    
--------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------5h7-------------------7------------5h7---------
--------------------------------------------------------------------
--5-5--5-8--5-5--5--------5-5--8----5-5--5-------5-5--5------5-5--8-
     then I think it changes to____/\___but_maybe_not_____________/\ 

That's as good as I can do. In the words of the mighty Peter Steele, 
"I hope it wasn't too disappointing. We will see you on tour, until 
then: take it ea-"
