  1. This bass line - playing it is beyond fun. No wonder it's pretty much the only thing he plays in the song.

    Video, for ye who haven't heard:

    Super fun, super awesome.

    Killing Boy - Frozen Music
    
    Standard tuning EADG
    
    Main line
    
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------|
    |--------------------------------------------------5-55--------------|
    |-----------------7-77-7-78-88-7-5-3/5-55-5-5-5-5-5-----8-7-7--------|
    |--55-55-5-5-5-5-5--------------------------------------------3-3/5--|
    
    Sometimes he adds an octave after the B note (5th fret) on the A string, 
    which would be the 7th fret on the G.
    
    Middle section, at around 3 minutes
    
    This three times
    |-----------------------------------|
    |----------------------------5---3--|
    |--55-55-3-5-5-5-55-55-5-3-5---3----|
    |-----------------------------------|
    
    Then it goes into this somewhere
    |--------------------5---5-77-55-----------------|
    |----------------5-7---7---------75---5----------|
    |--55-55-3-55-57--------------------7---7-5-...--|
    |------------------------------------------------|
    (Something like that, it sounds like he just kinda winged it there)
    
    Then it returns to the line that lead into it, and eventually returns to
    the main line. Theres a section at the very end of the song, when it starts
    to wind down, and the bass is essentially the same thing as the line in the
    mid section, except it originates on the E string instead of the A.


  2. Got a new bass, going on a kick trying to learn some songs, thought some people might benefit from the tabs i worked out. IDK how many people here play bass, or care about bass tabs but here it is. Should be pretty accurate, I like to think I'm not COMPLETELY tone deaf. There might some minor errors or a missing transitional bit or two, but this is the gist of the song.

    Phantasmagoria - Pixy False
    
    Standard tuning EADG
    
    
    Intro riff, used throughout the song

    The bass is so drowned out in this part, I can barely hear what
    the hell he's playing. I'm fairly sure he plays the intro riff 
    during the verse, then just plays the root notes like this when
    the chimes come in. If you can clearly hear what he's doing here,
    you're doing better than I am.
    
    
    Bridge part

    |-----------------------------5-----|
    |--7-7---5-7-8-5~---7-7---5-7---5~--|
    You could probably play this at a lower position, using the open
    A and D strings, but he seems to be playing it this way in live footage.
    
    
    The quick part where it switches

  3. it's been a decent year. plenty of good singles, and a couple cool albums. the highlight for me so far this year was definitely cage the elephant's "thank you happy birthday", followed by kaya's "queen". i was pretty surprised that queen was as good as it is. his last album was pretty forgettable with a few standout tracks, but this one has maybe 1 or 2 filler tracks at most. cage the elephant is just always cool all the time. not surprised that their new album was totally awesome through-and-through.

    not particularly looking forward to anything this year. i just wait and see what gets released, without bothering to check about future releases.


  4. i hate the fuckin eagles man

    really tho, i don't like x japan at all. gay ass 80s metal that's just as gay and just as ass as all other 80s metal. i wouldn't say i hate them. the only band i flat out hate is megadeth because dave mustaine's voice is so incredibly unbearable.


  5. taiheiyou belt - umikko now 5

    iconiq - change myself

    kiryu - meikyoushisui

    D - 7th rose

    calabrese - they call us death

    devil sold his soul - blessed and cursed

    r-shitei - Ningen Shikkaku

    i can't remember much of what i've listened to this year


  6. i haven't heard from moi dix mois in like 700 years. i can't believe they're still recording, i thought they all got bored and stopped. i know i get bored and stop halfway through one of their albums. :(

    mana is gonna have to pull some serious tricks out of his hat if he wants to make this album not pale in comparison to hizaki's solo project. that, or he's going to have to change the direction of the band, because HGP basically did everything m10m does, just way better. the man got his toes stepped on big time. :(
