Testament - More than Meets the Eye
Album - The Formation of Damnation
Tabbed by Wrshredder
Tuning - half step down (Eb)
This is the first riff.
------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------10--9--7--9/10--9------10--9--12--10--9--10--------|-----------2-----------------------2------------------------------|-----------2---8---7--5--7/8---7---2---8--7--10--8---7--8---------|-0-1-3-2h1-0-----------------------0------------------------------|
You can also play the first riff with power chords if you like.
Use lots of slides with this riff. Listen to album for reference.
Like this:
----------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|-----10--9--7--9--10--9--------10--9--12---10--9--10------|-2---10--9--7--9--10--9----2---10--9--12---10--9--10------|-2---8---7--5--7--8---7----2---8---7--10---8---7--8-------|-0-------------------------0------------------------------|
The the nice main riff, this comes 2 times:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----9-----------------------------------9-----------9---------------------|-----9-----------8------------5/7--------9-----------9----8----7----5/7----|-----7-----------8------------5/7--------7-----------7----8----7----5/7----|-000--00-000-000-6-00-000-000-3/5----000--00-000-000---00-6-00-5-00-3/5----|
Then the same riff comes along with singing, but slightly different:
---------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------|-----9-----------------9---------------------------|-----9-----------------9----8----7----5/7----------|-----7-----------------7----8----7----5/7----------|-000---000-000-000...----00-6-00-5-00-3/5----------|
This is the chorus part. The rhythm on the second part is too hard to tab.
You have to listen from the album..
--3--1----------------------------------------3--1------------------------------|--3--1----------------------------------------3--1------------------------------|--4--2----------------------------------------4--2------------------------------|--5--3----------------------------------------5--3------------------------------|--5--3----8h7-11h8--12h11--14h11-12h11--8h7---5--3--222..-5---------------------|--3--1--00---0----00-----00-----0-----00------3--1--000..-3--6h5h4h0--5h4h3h0---|
And the very last chords of the song:
-----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-5-------22------|-5---2-2-22------|-3---0-0-00------|
Im too noob to tab the solo. I hope you like it anyway. Long live Testament! :)
