If you have got corrections etc. - Mail me!

C# tunning? I think DT might have come back to the projector days where they used to tune 1 guitar on Eb ( or E perhaps ) and another on Drop Db ( like Drop D but half stelf lower ) by the looks of it.
 
That's great! Thanks alot for posting it in the forum. Maybe I'll try it out for myself when I'm advanced enough :p
 
He's just being Misanthrope - and Ormir knows him well enough not to let it bother.

Oh, and Crusher: I think you are most welcome to post tabs in here - after all, quite a many people seem to be interested in them. I, for one, don't find them interesting at all, but that's probably because I don't know a shit about guitars anyway.

-Villain (behind any beginner)
 
Ah, okay. I wanted to send it to deathwarp first, but the rules to send a tab are ****.

btw: Does anybody know any Pages, where I can get more Dark Tranquillity tabs? The most songs I want to play aren't tabbed, yet :cry: .

-Sorry for my bad english ;)-
 
why all the sudden interest? when i posted my punish my heaven tab the thread died faster than a terminal cancer pacient, is it trendy to post tabs nowdays?

There is plenty of links to tabs on the official page ( including mine ) so i think it would be better to upload such tabs to a site ( personal or otherwise ) and send a quick email to let niklas know, im shure he will update the page with the new tabs. That system causes far less spam on the forum too btw.

I agree, besides that guy doesnt updates for months at the time. But if your work is accurate he can bend the rules a lot, my tabs where all over the place ( not following the rules of posting at all ) and eventually they did got published...misteriously after my numerous flames about how he wanted to sale some magazine with a punish my heaven tab and that being the reason why he refused to publish my complete version.

drum tabs are on : http://www.metaltabs.com as well.

My dying bride has drum tabs, but I think other bands have also.

Never checked that out. Cause I play the guitar.

But I think there are 100's of drum tabs on it.
