Artist : Sigur Rós
Song : Viðrar Vel Til Loftárása
Album : Ágætis Byrjun
Bassist : Georg Holm
Tabbed by : Will Acton (SyntaxWilber) - butterfly__effect__@hotmail.com
The bass in this song is not too hard to hear, except in the 'chorus' bits. A lot of the bass follows the bass
end of the piano, but there are obvious sections where it doesn't. It's a nice calming song, and the build-up
at the end is fantastic, albeit rather hard to play along to. Enjoy.
Any comments or questions, feel free to email me.
