Official SLIPKNOT Tablature & Sheet Music »

Album: ????
Song: Absent
This is an absolutely amazing song, especially compared to thier other
stuff.
Don't tune down, just play the root-6 chords as 6-root chords. There are
loads of effects in this song, and i've tried to give you a general guide,
but
sorry if it's wrong.
Intro (wild guess here)- Use phaser and distortion , ^= 1/4 tone bend.

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 SLIPKNOT 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.
