Lamb of God- CORRECT riff from Grace

[BigEtbh]

yo dude good stuff, major LOG fan myself and its definitely a hard riff to do, well done! Gutted about the distortion sound tho :(

[semigret]

@BigEtbh Thanks! No worries, amp, dist pedal, and ax all updated since this vid was made. ;)

[Pablooba]

this song is definitely in C# - for you all numpties who keep saying LOG only play drop D, follow these instructions to understand. Tune your guitar to Drop D - easy to do, right? Place Sacrament CD in player, and play along to Walk with me in Hell - great sounds good. Next remove Sacrament CD, and replace with Wrath CD. Play Grace and notice that suddenly all that lovely tab you spent weeks learning doesn't seem to be in tune. Why? Bcos it's NOT FUCKING DROP D TUNED!

[IIVikingII]

That shirt fits you well. You are a tool.

[Crazy3189]

@IIVikingII why is he a tool

[bmxfreak237]

Lamb is drop D. not C. seriously

[semigret]

@bmxfreak237 hurr durr derpa derp derp

[Mthug007]

@semigret I think grace might be Cflat im not sure, all their older albums were d though or most of em

[kfsm1997]

@bmxfreak237 but this song was actually recorded in drop c# so

[riperdaniel]

@bmxfreak237 They used Drop C on Wrath, on Fake Messiah, Broken Hands and on Reclamation. But on the previouse records they played in drop D and on wrath as well.

[MennacetoSociety]

dont yu hate it when yur dist. sounds awsome but it doesnt record awsome on the computer :[

[GuitarMan261]

um... Log always play in Drop D dudeddeeededededdeeee

[josiah620]

really awesome pinch harmonics

[hunterW1134]

Glad to see there's another fan of both Lamb of God and Tool out there lol

[crayolapencilmaker]

props



[MartyrOfMetal]

Hey dude... you know there are more strings than the d flat string? you can play alot of those notes on the a flat string

[RemusN7]

@MartyrOfMetal Buuuuut it's way easier if you play it this way. Plus, you can play it however you want, the only thing that matters is the sound.

[svelle37]

@RemusN7 actually it's not easier, but the sound is different...

[RemusN7]

@svelle37 Yeah, some things must be played on a certain string, like this riff, or many others, like some riffs in Hourglass or Pathetic.

[ambiant58]

this song is so much harder on bass

[MartyrOfMetal]

@ambiant58 dude i bet. the bass frets are so much wider.

[smokethegrazz]

so fucking hard on the bass :(

[cjsk8r75]

Kick ass riff at the end

[2265440]

Thnx man...!!!!

[wtfx905]

mr know it all

[semigret]

@wtfx905 Who told you my middle name!?

[mytagisWVU69lolz]

Tool shirt.....EXACTLY what I was thinking.

[UpstateEG51]

Actually drop D tuning is STANDARD tuning with the 6th(lowest string) dropped down one step. That is the ONLY string going down a full step.

This song is in drop C# sharp tuning however. Meaning, all strings minus the 6th are dropped a HALF step, with the 6th string being dropped a full, meaning Eb -> C#

[semigret]

@UpstateEG51 Perhaps I should just re-record this video and explain it better. Yes, you are exactly correct and that is what I meant. In fact, I'm considering taking your explanation and putting it in the video info so people quit telling me I'm wrong about the tuning. What you said is exactly what I meant.

[damunkey411]

SCHECTER.

and nice squeals.

[HostageGuitar]

well doneee.

[Stigmate38]

thank you it's very hard

[TheWhackjob]

your distortion is absoutely shit

[semigret]

Thank goodness you pointed that out. I was worried my attuned and ear-trained viewers might mistake it for top quality. *phew*

[TheWhackjob]

@semigret just stating what i heard. dont blow out a forestfire from your queef...

[semigret]

Instead of initiating a pointless Internet feud, I would instead like to say: Hahahah!! I've never heard that one before. Nice.

Queef. Ha.

[Mthug007]

thank you for that lol I was trying to find out how to play that and you slowed it down haha

[guitaristNick4444]

you dont have to be an ass because you explained like an idiot. could have just said drop C# ...fuckin prick.

[PestVic]

why dont you just tune it dropped and learn it that way...? im pretty sure its probably C# dropped, thats how id tune it anyway

[TheRomanGod]

Hey man do you think you could put the tabs in the description? It's kind of hard to make out exactly what your playing what with the quality down-grade of YouTube. Thanks a lot for posting this video, peace!

[shinanaman]

drop D is a whole step bro. lol

[semigret]

See info.

[xWalleRx]

doing a LOG cover wearing a fucking tool short...wtf man..

[jeysonalison]

nice hear sense

[a7x7636]

thats what i told your mom lol jk

[johnnyrotten33]

Dude, that's some stretch you've got!

[guitaristNick4444]

whole step.

down a whole step

[semigret]

See info.

[NoKindOfAMankind]

Brutal.

[00ESP00]

Dude i play this song all the time and its not in Drop C its in Drop C# if you actually play with the song i can promise you that those two low notes arent there !

[semigret]

See info. That note is there, BTW. See the isolated guitar track video on YouTube and listen closely.

[shinanaman]

ah yes i see now. you just made it sound a little more complicated when you could have just said drop C#. but oh well no harm, just confused your fellow youtube users.

[allnightmarelong666]

finaly someone's got it right

[ANDRU2009jsk]

you have nasty tone. but good playing.

[semigret]

yeah sorry my computer microphone fails.

[ANDRU2009jsk]

what amp are you playing through?

[semigret]

Ampeg BA-112 and a Boss Metal Zone II. It's actually a Bass Amp. Honestly, most of that was a new setting I was trying and the tinny computer microphone.

[erasermcfleafly]

dude its not your mic. its cause your putting a crappy distortion pedal through a bass amp....its gonna sound like shit even through the best mic

[semigret]

Sorry to have offended. Can't afford much else right now, friend, and frankly, I think the sound is ok--and very different from the recorded sound--after having messed with the settings. Good to know you feel so great about your gear, though.

[srcdisaster]

hey dude think you send me the tabsa it would be greatly appreciated

[fcflames]

The tuning for this song is C# G# C# F# A# D# same as Fake Messiah, Broken Hands and Reclamation

[DroppinPlates9000]

actually i play it in drop C which is C G C F A D its a half step down from what you have. i do it by ear though since tabs are usually wrong. i use tabs to help tho and the one i have is in C not C# of course you can play it in C#

[pakmanprodigy8812]

no where near it bro

[BlueLeppard]

thats a killer riff, and nice shirt dude!

[littlebuddy22]

grace is in c# tuning dude

[meminen666]

Sorry but its actually in drop D

[jacksonguitarsrule1]

nope, Drop D down half step, try playing along in drop D, it won't work dude

[littlebuddy22]

yah dude, have u even read any of the other comnents?I dont want to start anything but i swear on my life that grace in DEFINITELY in drop c# tuning

[Rocket1771]

nice shirt, i have that same one

Lamb of God and Tool FTW

[valiantlegacy69]

this is a good video but lamb of god plays drop d meaning that only the low e string is tuned to d. nothing is down a half step

[Termpile]

we all know that lamb of god tunes to drop D, but for this song its a half step down also, so way to try to look like some fan who knows everything, but you just made yourself seem kinda dumb

[imtoopoorforanipod]

for grace its down a half step

[ky2534]

dude ur totally right thank u man this is alot tougher than what i've been playin but its right thank u

[shlema16]

dude i liked ur own creation!

fucking rocks!

[danielny23]

your pinch harmonics are amazing =o

[Wrathofa7x]

hell yeah i learned it by ear the same way, i had thouhgt the same thing when i saw these other people playing it wrong, so check out my vid of grace and comment if you like it XD

[TheVictimsX]

i got that tool shirt.

10,000 days faces on the back right?

[KYgelly]

dayum you got stretch with your fingers

[vip1691]

I think it's more like huge rather than huge

[FingersOnFire123]

The solo on this song BLEW ME AWAY!!!!

[FreakKitchen94]

yeaaah me too.. one of the best!

[ScarReborn]

Hey metalheads

Im currently looking to buy a guitar for playing metal.

Ive been playing for around about 5 years and i am fairly good.

Any ideas on what i could get? Under £1000 :L.

Thanks \M/

[carpeovum]

Ibanez, gogogo.

[XBLPaRoW]

ibanez or schecter?

[s1uff1sc001]

Get a Jackson.

[drummerman0067]

hell yea man jackson is the way to go.

[s1uff1sc001]

The Soloist is possibly the greatest guitar ever created for shredders.

[drummerman0067]

fasho fasho fasho

[RSnastydrumerRS]

oooh nice riff :D ( urs )

[Reeny66]

im learning this song (:

got the intro today.

sounds pretty good!

[eddgr]

Te pasaste de verga!!!

that means that mean that your fucking owesome!!

[fc3603]

definitely for subscribtion

[petsematarykeeper]

sweet.

i'm currently learning this song.

[addicted2guitar90]

good video, and i agree i fuckin love this song with a passion, got the album yesterday and like you said it was the first one to jump out at me, i also like fake messiah it has a dark catchy rhythm.

[javiyamaha01]

nice job man. this is also my favorite song from wrath.

do you think you can send me the tabs or tell me where you got them please?

[semigret]

Well, I figured the tabs that people were using were wrong (that's the point of the video). I figured it out by ear.

[GeilerGuy95]

NIce bro! i like that riff....keep it up!!!

[malefunct]

dude is correct but is faster...

[LeftMetal2008]

RIght on man, that is the right riff.

[slackass123]

nice but were did u get the tabs

[semigret]

I didn't use tabs, I listened closely.

[pariah666x]

yeah man good job got it right but i think you need to tune to C# for this song.

[Gatorbait66600]

yeah fake messiah grace and broken hands are all in c#

[semigret]

Thanks geniuses, but it is tuned to c# and I say that in the video ("...they tune to drop-D, and then it's down a half step" D - half step = c#). I just checked this video against an online tuner, and my open bottom string sounds pretty damn close to their c#. If it sounds a little bit off, it's likely some sort of distortion that happened in the video uploading.

[sasuke670]

yesss u got it right, all the other videos missed that note i thought i was the only one hearing it

[Matt23488]

ahh.... i was playing the second note but i was playing on 2 instead of 1. THANK YOU! btw check out my vid of the intro.

[carmacias19]

yeah your right that's the way it goes!! keep it brutal!!

[nonfiction1985]

i had my doubts at first i must admit, but you shred man. keep that shit up man.

[Fixxxer46]

some sic fingers you got there.

i hear alot off buzz from those strings though and you gotta turn down that distortion, all i could hear was SSSSSHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Keep rockin' though

[kevdizzle420]

Finally someone showing some respect for a quality riff, and your def getting some nice tone through your fingers bro

[Zeziro01]

thank god someone is actually posting the right way ._.;; I've been trying to get a cam to do it myself but blah. Sounds like your tuning is slightly flat but w/e GJ

[semigret]

could be... these strings are not right for tuning that low

[rybo670]

Rock on.

NICE little squeal in there at the end, too :)
