Existence is Punishment by Crowbar
transcribed by Matthew Writt
This is the first song from Crowbar i've tackled. I love this
song so i figured i'd tab it out so everyone can learn it.
They were a kick ass band who put out some good shit. This
is a big slice of it...
Tuning: BEADGB
Intro (slide in after clean bass riff)
This sounds really cool w/ 2 guitars playing it, but it
sounds like shit if just one part is played. Either learn to
play both at once (isn't too hard, except for the vibrato)
or find a friend who can play the complimentary part...
Note: not all the vibrato is notated. It's ALL OVER this
riff. Just use it where it sounds right.
Guitar 1
E: /2--/7-7~-8^------------5
B: /0------------6~--6-6/5--
Guitar 2
A: ----/9-9~-10^-----------3
E: /2------------5~--5-5/3--
B: /0-----------------------
Chorus:
A: 9/10----9/10----------------------------------------
E: 7/8--8--7/8---8--8-7------------8-------8------8-7-
B: -----6--------6--6-5---0-0-0-0-6--0-0-6--0-0-6-5-
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CROWBAR tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
