SHATTERED TABS URL: www.shatteredtabs.cjb.net EMAIL: shatteredtabs@hotmail.com THIS IS AN EXCLUSIVE TAB TO "SHATTERED TABS" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SONG: The Nameless BAND: Slipknot ALBUM: Vol. 3 (The Subliminal Verses) TRANSCRIBED BY: Chris Frazier (shatteredtabs@hotmail.com) DATE: 05/21/2004 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TUNING: Drop D and down 1 and 1/2 steps (Low to high: B F# B E G# C#) NOTES: Just like on my tab for "The Blister Exists" I must stress, locking in with the rhythm is the key to getting these songs. This song in particular has a lot of simple to strum syncopated riffs but also has it's parts that are a bit more difficult to master (ie: Riff 3). Just get into the groove and it shouldn't be a problem. Also, wherever you see a x244xx chord, more than likely it should be a 999xxx that's slid to the next chord. I just tabbed it with a chord that is easier to move from. I believe it should be a 999xxx though. KEY: PM=palm mute (x)=not always played h=hammer-on p=pull-off [x]=hamer-on while volume is turned down, turn volume up while vibrato to cause feedback (this note particular will be a low hum) /=slide Riff 1 (Intro/Verse 1/): C#|-----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------| G#|-----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------| E |-----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------| B |-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-0-0--2-2-2-2-2-2-|-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-| F#|-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-0-0--2-2-2-2-2-2-|-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-| B |-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-0-0--2-2-2-2-2-2-|-2-2--3-3-3-3-2-2-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-| PM - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Riff 2: C#|---------------------------------| G#|---------------------------------| E |-4-------------------------------| B |-4-3-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-6-5-6-5-(3)-| F#|-2-3-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-6-5-6-5-(3)-| B |---3-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-0-6-5-6-5-(3)-| PM - - - - - - Riff 3: C#|---------------------------------------------------------------------| G#|---------------------------------------------------------------------| E |-4-------------------------------------4---------4-2-----------------| B |-4-------------------------------------4-3-0-2-0-4-2-3-2-0-2-0-2-3-2-| F#|-2-1h2p1-2h3p2-3h4p3-4h5p4-3h4p3-4h5p4-2-3-0-2-0-2-0-3-2-0-2-0-2-3-2-| B |-----------------------------------------3-0-2-0-----3-2-0-2-0-2-3-2-| Verse 1 is Riff 1 played at a different rhythm.
