Swallow the Sun - New Moon Guitar Cover

[KoRnn69]

This is good. Like you, I also tabbed it out by ear... it's really simple. I plan on putting up a cover of this song too though.

[ShiretoD]

great cover man!!!

yopu have tabs maybe??

[ShadowDkA1]

@ShiretoD

Sorry man, no tabs. :/

But thanks for the kind comment! \m/

[KoRnn69]

@ShiretoD ultimate.com guitar has a really accurate tab of this song, if it helps it's in Drop C and is played on the 3rd, 2nd, 7th, and 5th fret (CGG strings/strumming) and then octave chords....

[tripeiromaster94]

whats your tunning?



[ShadowDkA1]

@tripeiromaster94

I played it in drop A#, but Swallow the Sun plays in drop C.

[DSoverPSP]

Wish you did some more lead, but it still sounds badass and I love your tone, it sounds just like STS! Great job!

[TheMonarchPhenomenon]

Really nice cover!

What guitar kind of guitar are you using?

[ShadowDkA1]

@TheMonarchPhenomenon

Thanks man! It's an Ibanez S520EX.

[lmlRockPrincesslml]

DUUUUDE I miss your covers!!! WE WANT MORE!!!

And Heavens Cried Blood, maybe?

[ShadowDkA1]

@lmlRockPrincesslml

Haha well I appreciate that!

I don't think I'll do a cover of And Heavens Cried Blood only because there's already a good cover up here by another user. Maybe in the next few days I'll get around to recording something else though. Perhaps Deadly Nightshade or The Justice of Suffering?

[lmlRockPrincesslml]

@ShadowDkA1 DEADLY NIGHTSHADE FTW!!!

CAN'T WAIT!!!

you've got a big fan here :)

[lmlRockPrincesslml]

@lmlRockPrincesslml or Descending Winters too \m/

[globalgemo]

@ShadowDkA1 Do Justice of Suffering

[danomanno747]

Awesome stuff....what amp are you using? Are you using a Line6 effects processor?

Great tone.

[ShadowDkA1]

@danomanno747

Yeah man, it's my friend's Line 6 Spider III. I think the Riggs setting. Thanks!

[ShadowDkA1]

@TheDeathMinion

Thanks!

[danevati]

Hahahaha your like sooo chill in the beginning... Listening to music... Like you're just going to take a bath :D

[ShadowDkA1]

@danevati

Haha...nothing else to do! :D

[danevati]

@ShadowDkA1 Hahahaha it's the best! :D

[lobsangscat]

i wanna learn to play their songs too!!! They are awesome live if you get a chance to experience. Btw, nice guitar . .. can you write what make it is? Cheers man

[ShadowDkA1]

@lobsangscat

Sorry this is so delayed, but if you're still curious, it's an Ibanez S520EX.

[BleedingT]

men, this is probably the best sts cd after the ghosts of loss one. I really appreciate you made a cover on the guitar :P watch my vocals for this song !!! 5*, brother of doom :D

[Virtuoosi6]

Do you have a 7 string set?

[ShadowDkA1]

@Virtuoosi6

Nah, just a 6-string.

[Virtuoosi6]

@ShadowDkA1 Then your strings must be thick as hell.

[ShadowDkA1]

@Virtuoosi6

Ah sorry man, I was really tired when I replied last and misunderstood what you meant. :p

I don't exactly what the set is but something close to .013 - .060

[kreepmaster]

love your sybreed shirt haha :D

oh and great cover!

[mutterfvcker]

I saw this through the herzeleid forum, good stuff man, keep 'em coming.

[Adryyjan]

You should try solo in this one. It's not really hard ;) But cover is good, five stars. Maybe I will put my cover soon ;)

[ShadowDkA1]

I am not so good with solos :p They're something I need tabbed generally as opposed to the main song components which I can do on my own.

I would only get angry trying to 1) figure out the solo and 2) trying to get good takes of playing the solo within the song, hahahah.

But thanks for the rating and comment! Definitely post your own cover!

[Adryyjan]

Well, tomorrow I will post These Woods Breathe Evil, and I think that New Moon (or Falling World) will be next one. Maybe after figuring solo to New Moon I will tab it for You if You want :P

[ShadowDkA1]

What a coincidence! I've learned These Woods Breathe Evil and Falling World as well. Won't be some time before I can video them though. :p

[Adryyjan]

Oh, nice to hear it :P But one thing, Swallow The Sun don't play in drop C, they play in C F A# D# G C. And I will check out Your videos, if You upload them.

[ShadowDkA1]

Really? I could have sworn I read in a blog of theirs they played in drop C.

In any case, I've been figuring them out in drop A and drop A# so it doesn't really matter to me any. :p

[blackritual0]

@ShadowDkA1

they do play in drop C, i asked Juha on there forums a while ago, coesn't matter to much though, you can play it in whatever you feel like lol

[ShadowDkA1]

@blackritual0

I knew I read it was drop C somewhere! :p

And true! If someone can play a song in a different tuning then more power to them.

[deadspirit666]

@ShadowDkA1 most songs are tabbed in dropped c but you can also play em on a c tuning or something :D

[Stam1na1]

Amazing Cover! But what`s the tune? Dropped C???

[ShadowDkA1]

Thanks!

I figured it out in drop A#, but Swallow the Sun does indeed play in drop C.
