FEAR FACTORY - "Descent" Tablature
Official FEAR FACTORY Tablature & Sheet Music »
PROPS GO TO: MUSE FOUR
Well since most people dont got a 7 string like dino, heres the song descent on a regular 6 string. just start of by tuning your guitar to a drop d soo it will be D A D G B E. you can drop it more if you want like down to (A, E, A, D, F#, B)
but be cautious cause it might sound too muddy so you might want to get heavier gauge strings. While listening to fear factory i noticed dino uses disonant cords and this is one of them...just to let you know if your umfamiliar with those kinds of chords.

Oh a quick reminder dino also use's a wah pedal which makes the octave higer for the second repeat. Just listen to the song very carefully and you'll be able to hear it.

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 FEAR FACTORY 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.
