------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For The Glory Of - Testament ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: incubusfan86 E-mail: mdavis969@hotmail.com Tuning: Half Step Down (Eb) (D#,G#,C#,F#,A#,D#) ******************************************************************************* Hey there everyone, this is my first official tab done by ear. I do not feel it is 100% correct yet but I do feel it is really damn close, just some minor things that may be off a touch, and since no one has tabbed this badass Introduction song to Testaments album (The Formation of Damnation) I thought I would help everyone out. I feel this is at least a good place to start for someone with more experience than me to complete it with a more accurate sound I guess. I am sorry I have not figured out the background soloing yet, I will update this tab when I have figured that part out, but as for now I present you with a kickass riff that will have your neighbors bangin their heads. Please feel free to comment, anything I can do to help improve this is more than welcome. Thanks for the feedback and have fun. P.S. Throw a nice bit of reverb on and it sounds even better. ******************************************************************************* D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| C#|--------------------------7-6----------------------------------------------| G#|-2---5-7-8-7~---2---5-7-8-----7~--2--5-7-8-7-5-xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2------------| D#|-0--------------0-----------------0------------xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0------------| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------14-13-14~---------------------------------------| C#|-12-14-15-14*-----12-14-15--------------12-14-15-14-12---------------------| G#|-------------------------------------------------------xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2----| D#|---------------0---------------------0-----------------xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0----| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G#|---------------------------12-11------------------------xx5b-xxx-3--3-2-2--| D#|-10-12-13-12~--0--10-12-13-------12~--0--10-12-13-12-10-xx3b-xxx-1--1-0-0--| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------14-13-14~---------------------------------------| C#|-12-14-15-14~-----12-14-15--------------12-14-15-14-12---------------------| G#|-------------------------------------------------------xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2----| D#|---------------0---------------------0-----------------xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0----| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| C#|----------------------7-6--------------------------------------------------| G#|-5-7-8-7*-------5-7-8-----7~------5-7-8-7-5-xx5b-xxx-3--3-2-2--------------| D#|------------0------------------0------------xx3b-xxx-1--1-0-0--------------| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G#|---------------------------12-11-12~--------------------xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2---| D#|-10-12-13-12~--0--10-12-13------------0--10-12-13-12-10-xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0---| (Solo starts during this measure) D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------14-13-------------------------------------------| C#|-12-14-15-14~-----12-14-15-------14~----12-14-15-14-12---------------------| G#|-------------------------------------------------------xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2----| D#|---------------0---------------------0-----------------xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0----| D#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| C#|----------------------7-6-7~-----------------------------------------------| G#|-5-7-8-7~-------5-7-8-------------5-7-8-7-5-xx5-xxx-3--3-2-2~~~------------| D#|------------0------------------0------------xx3-xxx-1--1-0-0~~~------------| ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | * pinch harmonic | x Mute note | b Bend | pb Pre-bend | br Bend release | pbr Pre-bend release | brb Bend release bend ************************************
