 I've worked out the effects roughly used by Russell in this part. I don't know


 the brand names but:


 - Delay, set on slapback


 - Whammy, sounding both octaves


 - Light distortion


 


 In the studio album version, the intro's improved using a computer, but those


 are the effects he seems to use live.


 


 Also over the intro at random places, an F# is sounded on the synth.

 MAIN RIFF[0:37]


 _____________________________________________________________________________


 


 PLAYED TWICE BEFORE SINGING.


 


 Note, dubbed over the top is the intro.


 


 From the videos, Russell seems to play the HIGHER OCTAVE (first tabbed)


 with an octave pedal that plays the lower octave louder.


 


 If you DO NOT HAVE AN OCTAVE PEDAL, play the LOWER OCTAVE!

 PRE-BREAK BUILDUP[2:24]


 _____________________________________________________________________________


 


 From the official video Russell plays an F# chord, layered with synth-style effects.


 F# is:


 


 e|-2--|


 B|-2--|


 G|-3--|


 D|-4--|


 A|-4--|


 E|-2--|


 


 This gets progressively louder (palm muting is released).

{t:Hunting for Witches}
 {st:Bloc Party}
 
 by Bloc Party (off the album "A Weekend In The City", 2007)
 
 Standard tuning (both guitars)
 
 This is my attempt at tabbing this. I think I've got the intro figured out,
 and this is how it seems they actually play it, based on various live and official
 YouTube videos.
 
 _____________________________________________________________________________
 INTRO[0:12]
 _____________________________________________________________________________
 
 Note, it looks like a mixture of 7th fret harmonics (slightly muted though) and
 some effects*. The sound generated is helped by
 playing towards the neck on the E, B, G and D strings in each bar. I.e., at the
 start of each bar pick up at the bridge and finish the bar at the last pickup.
 
 If you like, playing at around the 11th fret works too.
 
 (PM/comment if that doesn't make sense, or just watch:
 youtube. com /watch?v=D4_G7LxJacY )

 PRE-BREAK BUILDUP[2:24]

 From the official video Russell plays an F# chord, layered with synth-style effects.
 F# is:
 
 e|-2--|
 B|-2--|
 G|-3--|
 D|-4--|
 A|-4--|
 E|-2--|
 
 This gets progressively louder (palm muting is released).

 LYRICS
 _____________________________________________________________________________
 
 VERSE
 
 I was sitting on the roof of my house
 With a shotgun and a six pack of beer
 (six pack of beer..)
 The newscaster say's "the enemy is among us!"
 As bombs explode on the 30 bus
 Kill your middle class indecision
 Now is not the time for liberal thought
 
 CHORUS
 
 So I go hunting for witches
 I go hunting for witches
 Heads are going to roll
 I go hunting for
 
 VERSE
 
 In the 90's, optimistic as a teen
 But now its terror, airplanes crash into towers
 (into towers...)
 The Daily mail say's "the enemy is among us!"
 "Taking our women and taking our jobs"
 All reasonable thought is being drowned out
 By the non-stop baying, baying for blood
 
 CHORUS
 
 So I go hunting for witches
 I go hunting for witches
 Heads are going to roll
 I go hunting for
 
 CHORUS EXTENSION
 
 I was an ordinary man, with ordinary desire
 I watched TV it informed me
 I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
 There must be accountability
 Disparate and misinformed
 Fear will keep us all in place
 
 CHORUS
 
 So I go hunting for witches
 I go hunting for witches
 Heads are going to roll
 I go hunting for
 
 CHORUS EXTENSION
 
 I was an ordinary man, with ordinary desire
 I watched TV it informed me
 I was an ordinary man with ordinary desire
 There must be accountability
 Disparate and misinformed
 Fear will keep us all in place
