------------------------------------------------------------- Artist: Fear Factory Song: "Resurrection" Album: "Obsolete" Label: Roadrunner Records, copyright 1998, (The All-Blacks B.V.) Nihilistic Automaton: Burton C. Bell Hypercharged Detonator: Dino Cazares Substatic Intensifier: Christian Olde Wolbers Automodulated Groove Injector: Raymond Herrera Thanks a lot to Yani and Ray for giving me the opportunity to do this. My name is Dimitrije Kostic and any questions about this tab or any others in the Fear Factory Tablature Archive can be emailed to me at martyr@fearfactory.com I will gladly investigate any possible errors in any tablature on this site. ------------------------------------------------------------- This is currently slated to be the first single from the Obsolete album. It is a moody song that fluctuates from quiet and spiritual to the loud and passionately heavy. The hammer-on series of notes in Riffs A and B may prove somewhat difficult to memorize. However, this is nothing that listening to the track won't soon fix. There shouldn't be very many challenges in the way of technique here. It is, nonetheless, a good place to practice the powerful, doom-colored, sustaining chords that make the end of the song so memorable. Learn how to control the strings and still make them resonate. Have fun! Tune all strings down a perfect fourth (B, E, A, D) LEGEND: H -- hit-on P -- pull-off ~~~~ -- vibrato A.H. -- Artificial Harmonic N.H. -- Natural Harmonic / -- slide up \ -- slide down moderate speed Intro: About 45 seconds of atmospheric studio effects and synthesizers before Burton begins to sing. About 30 seconds after that, the guitar kicks in...
