ARTIST: PRIMUS SONG TITLE: LAQUERHEAD ALBUM: ANTIPOP TABBED BY: TRAVIS REININGER ----------------------------------------------- listen to the song to get the right rhythm and how many times to play the riffs standard tuning: EADGBE key: pm = palm mute b = bend ~ = ring / = slide ---------------------------- verse - 0:18-0:46 & 1:17-1:46 e|-2pm--- b|-1pm--- verse variation g|-11pm--- d|-10pm--- (i had to do this when my e string broke, and it sounds a little better i think) chorus - 0:47-1:07, 1:47-2:06, & 3:02-3:28 [part 1] d|-5-~-8-~-- a|-3-~-6-~-- e|---------- [part 2] d|------10---------- a|------8----------- e|-5-2-----5-2-5-2-- (repeat part 2 twice and then back to part 1 of the chorus - then repeat part 2 of the chorus 4 times. On the 4th time you don't do the last part of part 2, listen to the song you'll get it. Also on the last chorus at 3:02, you repeat part 2 six times instead of 4) bridge - 2:07 this is probably near impossible to tab since the guitar isnt really playing much. however i have the video for this song (live) and i can kind of figure out what larry (the guitarist) is doing. at first hes mutting or doing a bar chord at the 3rd or 4th fret and just stratching his pick up and down the fretboard on the strings. then when you hear that crazy stuff at about 2:37...hes hammering on like crazy. i use wah with some low phaser and short delay when i play this and it sounds pretty close. for the most part just play around. postbridge - 2:45-3:01 a|-5b----- e|-------- (you can hear it faintly in the background let ring for about 4-5 seconds and redo. maybe use some reverb or delay for some effect.) outro - 3:28-3-36 d|-----10- a|-----8-- e|-5-2---- (you repeat this seven times over and over then you can slide the bottom strings that you hear about 3:36 and then ending note) ending note - 3:37 a|--10------ e|--8-~----- ---------------------------- SETUP VERSE CHORUS VERSE CHORUS BRIDGE POSTBRIDGE CHORUS OUTRO ENDING NOTE ---------------------------- thats about it. listen to the song you'll get it, its really easy and a fun song. primus sucks!
