TOOL - "eon blue apocalypse4" Tablature
Official TOOL Tablature & Sheet Music »
Band: Tool
Song: Eon Blue Apocalypse
Albumn: Lateralus, track 2
My interpertation of the song:
Tuning: Dropped D
(Tune your low string down to D, a full step below standard. Leave all other strings standard)
Strings: 1E, 2B, 3G, 4D, 5A, 6D
Play: Fun, short instrumental.
Two guitars at work here.
Not sure about a Bass part.
I've divided it into two sections.
You'll have to listen to the song to get an idea as to the flow and whatnot.
Easy to play on an acoustic.
Underscores indicate a held note.
Also, pick near the bridge to create the proper effect.

Note: This isn't the exact timing. You'll have to hear the song to get it right on.
Play either or both strings, but watch your timing.
Play throughout Section 1.

Note: The timings I've got down ought to be accurate enough.
Careful with the 8 to 3 part, its tricky.

(strum)
Note: The flow on this is a bit slow, so watch it.
My timings are a bit off, but more or less ok.
Also, on the hammer and pull-off 3p2h3, the first note is held for just a tiny second.
And, on the very last 3h5, I'm not certain that those are the right notes, but it sounds ok.
Just remember to pick near the bridge.
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 TOOL 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.
