Empathological Necroticism Carcass
Carcass "Empathological Necroticism" (taken from "Symphonies of Sickness" CD) transcribed by grievous - a tireless mofo. (drop me e-mail if you find mistakes) Argh - this tune is a monster, but a personal favorite for it's lack of guitar solos. A lot of the spots where vibrato is indicated should be only lightly wiggled - listen to the disc and you'll notice Bill Steer uses a light vibrato quite frequently to great effect. As a matter of fact, go buy the damn CD if you don't have it - it's a masterpiece of technical grind-death-sludge with an original style. The lyrics aren't included because I assume you already have the record if you want to play this... Tune all strings down 5 half-steps (e.g. B E A D ...) *=vibrato [pm]=palm mute [dp]=double pick INTRO RIFF (x4) (let ring) (let ring) e------------------------------------------------------------ B------------------------------------------------------------ G------------------------------------------------------------ D----------3--------------6-6-6----8------------------------- A-4-4-4-2--1-3------------4-4-4-4--6-2---------------------- E-2-2-2-0----1------------------3----0----------------------- After the intro riff, chop an open E power chord 16 times.
