Dir En Grey, some japanese band of crossdressing freaks, has just released a new album. They gave some interviews recently saying they were fans of opeth, but as their last couple albums were generally crapfests with a ton of metalcore influence, I figured it would amount to nothing. But, I...

While browsing a fun torrent site today, I noticed that they had an album called "The Blue" from a band called Novembre in the metal section. Since there'd been such a huge length of time between Novembrine Waltz and Materia, and I hadn't heard a single thing about it despite occasionally...

Does anyone have this on pre-order? According to Amazon it gets released on the 9th. I really don't want to blindly support this company with my money after their treatment of me, but I'm intrigued as to how this turned out. I was relieved to find that only one of the tabs in there is of a...

http://www.myspace.com/anchorheaddarthmetal These guys are actually pretty good, especially "shredisode IV." :X Besides the vocal sound, of course, though it's sort of funny hearing someone do death metal grunts when talking about emperor palpatine and getting to the escape pod and such. I...

What tuning does Kayo Dot use on Choirs of the Eye? I haven't seen mention of that anywhere. Some songs seem to go down to C, and others only C#. Are they like MotW in that they use lots of different tunings? It would be nice to know once and for all what songs use what tuning so these...

I have always wondered what effect is being used on the lead guitar on the verses of A Perfect Circle's song "The Hollow." It's really bizarre and sounds kind of like a synthesizer with some kind of phase shifter, but I know it's guitar. Any ideas on what they did? I think I read that they...

Is there some technique for removing or minimizing reverb when dealing with samples/pre-recorded material? I have some choral music I want to use samples of in another project, but it sounds like it was recorded in a cathedral or something and I'd like to minimize that effect as much as...

I have always greatly enjoyed "October Rust," but I never really thought about how they got the sound they did on that cd. Then yesterday I downloaded a bootleg of them live (I was curious as to how the material would translate), and much to my surprise it sounded quite similar to the album...

http://www.emotears.com/~wankerness/audio/fok9.mp3 Honestly I just have no idea where to begin with much of anything :D I finally have managed to amass a considerable amount of recording software/hardware and tried to put it all together. I have a podxt with all the expansion packs (well, not...

I just got back from seeing Opeth...it was pretty good, but fucking Devil Driver played for SO long that I half wanted Opeth to hurry up so I could GO TO BED, haha. The setlist was pretty much the same as other recent ones...some of this might be slightly out of order. Ghost of Perdition White...

I thought I'd ask this cause last time I went to an Opeth show in Milwaukee (back on the Deliverance tour) I was stuck right behind this guy that was about 6' 6" in a Novembers Doom hoodie, which made me really mad cause I couldn't see but I was like HEY AT LEAST HE HAS A NOVEMBERS DOOM HOODIE...

OK, since based on Reverie/Harlequin Forest and Isolation Years (now that I went over it again) I'm 99.999% sure that the tuning on this album is DADFAE (instead of DADFAD, which would be 'normal' open Dm tuning), I corrected the tabs for Isolation Years, The Grand Conjuration (well, actually I...

FOR SOME REASON the intro to that song is just about my favorite bit of piano ever...I've always been disappointed that the rest of the song didn't really sound like the intro, not that it was bad or anything, it was just too upbeat or something after that gorgeous intro! Anyway tonight I was...

I finished this. http://www.powertabs.net/pta.php?page=song,20715

Mikael, if you could possibly explain the tunings you used on this album, I would be eternally grateful! I've read the stuff you said in the session diary on opeth.com, and it says that you used open tuning on most of the songs. Did all the songs use the same tuning? It seems to me that some...

http://www.powertabs.net/pta.php?page=song,19413 Due to the numerous (and obnoxious) skips in the mp3 it's impossible to tell if they are for sure playing 4/4 through the last few minutes or throwing in time changes, so I just tabbed it as if it was all in 4/4. The acoustic part is also...

It's the least popular Opeth tab I've ever done! Only one rating! It's powertab format, as always, and it would be appreciated if you guitar pro dorks at least give me credit for tabbing it if you copy it and submit it on mysongbook (like almost always happens). >:E...

HEY GUYS I tabbed the song Flower off Novembrine Waltz. I did Come Pierrot a while back, too, if anyone remembers? Anyway, you need the program Powertab Editor 1.7 to open it, there are links on the site. Novembre - Flower http://www.powertabs.net/pta.php?page=song,14376 I also tabbed...

HEY PEOPLE, I just updated my tab for Advent (which always got ratings accusing it of "being wrong" but never said where) with a whole mess of corrections, especially in the distorted freakout section towards the end with the octave chords. ALSO I updated my Demon of the Fall one with the right...

Does anyone know if Katatonia ever uses DROP TUNINGS? Several of the songs on LFDGD seem to be in Eb standard (like teargas and I transpire), but then there are also some songs that go down to a low Db, like Dispossession and Chrome. Does anyone know if it's in "Drop Db," or Db standard? They...
