Porpoise Head
by Porno For Pyros off of the Warner Bros. release Good God's Urge
from stephen j. at bxmum@ix.netcom.com
You know, I'm sick of there not being any Porno For Pyros posted up here.
But I've decided to do more than just complain about it^Å. Porpoise Head is
easily one of my favorites, and since only Pets and Sadness are running, I
felt as though it deserved to be posted as well. Granted, this part of
Porpoise Head is only a fraction of the song, but it is at least something
new from Porno.
The entire opening shabang here is played off of one chord (everybody's
favorite chord, the E!) and one non-chord (just open strings). It is quite
simple, and anyone who wishes to figure it out has likely done so already,
but again I was bored with the lack of posted Porno. Here it is:
E (release the E)
E----------------------------------------------------------------------
B--------------------0------------------------------------------------
G------1--------------------------1--------------0-------------------
D------------2--------------------------2-----------------------0----
repeat
A-----------------2---------------------------2-----------------------
E-----------------------------0----------------------------------------
This is the opening riff and the one which repeats throughout much of the
song. It sounds as though it may be down-tuned half of a step or so. I
reason that I did not write the notes (h,q,e etceteras) in is because I
think that it sounds nice while being played at just about any speed or
tempo. Just screw around with it and hear what you think sounds nice, or
accurate, whichever you are going for.
Now lets see if we can't get some more Porno posted. You know, we really
cannot have too much. And at current pace, with the new album being due
out in just about three more years or so, we really had better hurry! J
Now I'm off!
e-mail stephen j. if you have any more Porno For Pyros or Jane's Addiction
guitar tab (including additions to this song). Maybe some Deconstruction
would be nice too^Å

"I've got big-toed fish to fry!"
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 PORNO FOR PYROS 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.
