I would like to say HOLY SHIT! Tom and Henrik are in the "Betcha Can't Play This" column.

 

[CampinCarl]

What's the article say?

 

[tong_boy_junior]

Since I'm short on time right now, in a nutshell:

The licks are based on the solos from the song Monday Morning Apocalypse. Henk and Tom explain the modes and technique they use to play the solos. The article has them tabbed out, too. And if you have the cd-rom that came with the magazine, you can watch Tom and Henrik show you how to play it.

Can someone post the video?

 

[tong_boy_junior]

I just uploaded it. You'll be able to see it here:

They could have picked harder solos.

 

[Jokkmokk]

That's cool, Although Tom does it quite bad actually, He does it better live

 

[coolsnow7]

Nice, thanks!

And yes they could have!!! That's like nothing compared to what other people do... they weren't supposed to pick solos from an actual song, they were supposed to just shred. Ah well, they're awesome solos in general, though I don't like the embellishments they added. They take away from the solos.

 

[FretsAflame]

did this happen to include tabs as well? Their fretboards make it difficult to see the string/fret clearly - also are they in c or d, yeesh.

 

[tong_boy_junior]

yeah, there are tabs in the magazine. They are Drop-D tuned down one whole step (low to high: C G C F A D)

What band was on the cover of this issue? Is there any chance of getting a copy of the tabs from someone? (PM me if possible)
Cheers

lol all the bands they choose for the covers are fucking ridiculous. The only magazine that I've seen that retains a shred of integrity is Bass Player.

I would be very greatful preferably the one with the DVD in it.
Thanks Tom / evergrey

Tom,

Back issues can be ordered here http://www.musicdispatch.com/item_detail.jsp?itemid=77770682&refer=feature&featureCat=710001&order=6. Looks like shipping to Sweden would be about $10US. I could get one for you, but I would need an address.
