They mostly play in Drop C or D Standard, with a few of their songs in AGCfad, such as Mother Puncher. This song is in D standard. Sleeping Giant is in Drop C. those are pretty much the only tunings i've known them to use.
the song is d standard. you can play it in drop d if you drop the 1st-5th notes down 2 frets. but if you want to play how mastodon wrote and plays it it's d standard. guitar world did a tab of this song a few years ago. or try ultimate-guitar. give the kid a break. he did a good job. even dime messed up from time to time
This song is in drop D!!!! Can't anyone use their own ears? You feel that is has a low tuning, coz the bass note on the string is played. For a heavier sound, you could try with 1 step down tuning. But it is surely not Drop C or E flat or A flat.
@TheJakeGames If you want to see a correct version go listen to the song. It's posted because people enjoy playing and sharing. Who gives a shit if some strokes are off?
@TheJakeGames Thanks for the wide array of perfectly performed covers that you have uploaded..
Your the best...Your covers put shame to the studio versions of the songs...Your a god
To everyone reading this comment im not being serious...after seing this guy criticize The kids video i checked out his page...sadly all he had was a video of an autistic kid opening a copy of Assassins Creed
You should record the song through your computer or something, cuz the sound of the strings is kida distracting and your guitar isn't loud enough compared to the song.
Well played! I just started learning this song yesterday and yeah to get a good vibrato hasn't been easy, you need to really dig that finger in and put a slight bit of pick hand harmonics into it. Play with less gain, get it going good like that then come back with more gain later and kill it.
i dont really mess up the sliding as much, but i mess up the picking and finger placement way more. I play the solo on one string :D (sounds even better imo, but it's hard to keep up with) im really good with time myself, being a percussionist and all, so that might have something to do with it. Might i sugjest asking a friend to teach you drum set (with metronome) I've found it helps all musicians who haven't tried it yet.
My slides are fail too xD Sliding is actually pretty hard to get down perfectly... atleast for me, the precision of getting my hand on the right frets is really a pain in the ass, but, practise makes perfect!

I agree with thorodinson89 I didn't hear anything wrong with that first vibrato(I guess you think it wasn't long enough.) and that slide fuck up was very minor. You do realize that bands make minor fuck ups live all the time don't you? You did a great job.
WOW u know if u didnt point out that stuff in the beginning i would have thought it was perfect. but u are harsh critic on yourself which in a way is good becasue u strive for perfection.
is this tuned to drop D?
