ok iv listened to bout 6 songs and they sound the exact same i dont see the "good" in this as everybody says, n drummers got to much talent to be in the band poor guy
i love minus the bear but this town needs guns is better. they are much much more complex and technical with guitar parts. minus the bear is phenomenal but ttng is just unbeatable.
The drummer is the most talented in the band. And to think that he was a librarian before he was in this band. How could such a bad-ass musician be checking in and out books while he has this going for him?
It starts off with this stereotypical rock beat. And just when you think you're listening to the wrong song it goes to this. <- obvious but I love this band so much. They should put this song mainstream just to mess with people. They couldn't handle the awesomeness.
this band is constantly using time signatures, and they're great, but that gets real repetitive most times. It's impressive, innovative, and fresh, but it doesn't hit that musical G-spot, that doesn't require all the technicality. Their old album is much better than the new one.
I love how this song starts in an obvious 4/4 so it makes you think 'TTNG have written a song in 4/4?? what??'
And then it suddenly changes to some mad obscure time signature and the world resumes its course and you feel at one with yourself and the others around you.
tabs shmabs..all i ever see is someone looking for tabs...be your own person,come up with your own shit,stop trying to play someone else's concepts...think for yourself...that's what makes bands like this great.Anyone can learn a tab,and sound cool..not everyone can write a song.
I can write songs for example but I need to get the overall gist of the type of music I'm trying to play, ttng is way different than anything I've really ever played and it's not really much of the actual playing, the tunings throw me off since I'm pretty sure that they don't tune to standard/drop type tunings and that they tune some strings up and such.
There are a lot of really interesting techniques that he uses that are borderline impossible to experiment with without looking at EXACTLY what the notes are. Don't dismiss everyone looking for tabs as someone who is trying to straight rip off someone else's style.
My friend counted whose a drummer counted 9/8 on this song (actually it may be another song and this would be irrelevant), but i counted 13/8, in the beggining that is. Anyone else wanna give it a shot?
Serious? That's amazing! I'd be greatful for any tabs you can get me, love the guitar work. I have Elk and 26 is dancier than 4 if you want either of those? Would love any others though, thanks mate :)
the song stays the same, you just feel the measures differently.
when you listen to the drum intro, you may count it as one measure of 4/4 or 8/8. for me, it´s two measures of 4/4. nobody´s right here, we just feel this differently.

4/4 and 8/8 are the same.
It would be two measures of 4/4 or one of 8/4. The latter being more complicated and redundant, you'd go with 4/4.
