paint it black~ black dahlia murder

paint it black -by- the agony scene

tough question....

Paint it Black - As covered by Gob on the Stir of Echos soundtrack.
High E string tuned to Eb, Low E dropped to D.
Tabbed by Hammy <mahammy@yahoo.com>

Intro
d#---0---0---0--0--0--0--0---0----------------------------------------------------
b---4--6---7---9--7--6--4--4---3-4-6-3h4h5-4-3---3~-------------------------------
g----------------------------------------------5----------------------------------
d---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Drums come in, and then this: (Don't forget pick scrap down the neck)

d#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d--1~-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
a--1~-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
d--1~-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then the verse, play these two chords with heavy palm-muting:

d#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d--1---------8--------------------------------------------------------------------
a--1---------8--------------------------------------------------------------------
d--1---and---8--------------------------------------------------------------------

After playing the verse a few times (I remember all this stuff sub-consciously
so I can't tell you the number off hand ) guitar1 plays this:

d#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
g--8--6-6-----6-6-----------------------------------------------------------------
d--8--6-6--4--6-6--6-6-6-6--8-8-8-8-8---------------------------------------------
a--6--4-4--4--4-4--6-6-6-6--8-8-8-8-8---------------------------------------------
d----------4-------6-6-6-6--8-8-8-8-8---------------------------------------------

I'm not sure if the strums are the correct number, blah blah.

While guitar1 plays the last part, guitar2 is playing something like this (It's subtle)
Thanks to Johnny "Gunz" RoDRigueZ for figuring it out.

d#--0-----0-----0-----0-----0----0---0--------------------------------------------
b--4--4-6---6-7---7-6---6-7--7-9---7--7-6-----------------------------------------
g---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
d---------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Then it goes back and plays the verse part a few more times and stuff.
Then it plays a variation of the verse which sounds a lot like the
gob song "Reign on Your Parade"
I can't really tab it out, just listen to it. After there is an
outro, where the intro and verse
are played together. Anyways... Thats it!

....okay? ^^^

chris amott - big foot (alcatrazz)
children of bodom - somebody put somethin in my drink (ramones)
death - painkiller (priest)
evergrey - rising force (malmsteen)
cradle of filth - hallowed be thy name (maiden)
dimmu borgir - burn in hell (twisted sister)
therion - O Fortuna (dead composer)
pantera - planet caravan (sabbath)
vital remains - the trooper (maiden)

i think Emperor does the best metal covers in the world when it comes to BM
Opeth does some good ones too

anthrax covering sod-milk

Anthrax covering "Protest and Survive"

blood brothers covering 'under pressure' by queen and david bowie.

Nevermore's cover of the sounds of Silence.

Yeah, I gotta say when Opeth covered Soldier Of Fortune by Deep Purple on their Damnation tour.

one of my favorites is katatonia's cover of nightmares by the sea by jeff buckley. it stays pretty true to the original, but still comes off sounding like a katatonia song that fits in the context of the album.

oh shit!!!! i completely forgot about that cover! they make that song there own! such a brilliant band

Blind Guardian "Mr. Sandman"
Vader "Raining Blood"

Haha, that Blind Guardian cover is creepy. But yeah, I like that. And Cradle of Filth's "No Time To Cry" [sisters of mercy]. And any cover that Random Acts of Violence does.

death before dishonor covering "rebel yell"
back of tha neck covering "hangin tuff"
vader covering "raining blood"
letters from the dead covering "slowly we rot"

Accussed - If I could Change The World
'Jesus loves the little children'

this shit makes me weep

no one mentioned........ORGASMATRON

WARGASM - "fireball"
VADER - "black sabbath" live
DEATH - "painkiller"

I guess you are the one...

paint it black by WASP
actually that the worst cover ever.

Slayer-Filler/I dont wanna hear it
Anthrax-Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
Sick of it All- All Hell Breaks Loose

i was in a death metal band once where instead of writing songs we just covered orgasmatron

Slayer - Dissident Aggresor
Sir Mix-A-Lot/Metal Church - Iron Man (does that count)

RustedAngel said:

those are good... and the composer was Carl Orff.

Vision Divine - "Take on Me" (A-Ha)

If youre talking about the O fortuna cover by that "hardcore"ish band, it's not that good. Bad actually.

Kalmah-Skin o' my teeth (Megadeth)

no, it's by therion.

what about Nile's re-work of mars, bringer of war (gustoff holz) into remases bringer of war?

malevolent creation-piece by piece(slayer)
acrh enemy-aces high(maiden)
napalm death-nazi punks fuck off(dead kennedys)

earth crisis - earth ad (misfits)
berzerker - corporal jigsore quandry (carcass)
decapitated - mandatory suicide (slayer)

aaron, do a show devoted to covers please

do you know enough material ? if not...people send him stuff

A cover show would rock. Get Suicide Dream to play. They did nothing but covers for five and a half hours one day.

Anal Cunt-"A Team theme song"

Exhumed - Material Girl (Madonna)
Pungent Stench - The Four F Club (Mentors)
Murder Corporation - Boneyard (Impetigo)
Frightmare - Devilock (Misfits)

Probably more.

but i still think this is a cool idea...and i wrote it in bold so he'll se it when he gets here after the show..as a reminder =)

machetazo- children of the grave(sabbath)
lord belial- the trooper( maiden)
but I guess it's hard to fuck up an iron maiden song
sheer terror- boys don't cry( the cure)
witchery- I wanna be somebody(w.a.s.p.)
anal cunt- the theme from "three's company"
pray for a plague- bite it, you scum (G.G. Allin)

he left for work but doesn't have all these covers and wants to have new music

maybe an hour devoted to covers? but still where to get all these covers

Marduk - Paint it Black
Marduk - Earth AD

silky said:

Shaniqua and the Skull Fuckers - Be with you (Mr. Big)

Machetazo - Ace of Spades is good too.
