Coroner's "Die by My Hand" on bass - LRRG

Here is my crack at one of the most under-rated thrash bands from the old school, the Swiss trio known as Coroner. Even though their vocals left something to be desired, no band of that era could compare with their speed and accuracy.

Even though I am essentially a finger player and a slap player, I had to pull out the old pick for this one. It is the only way I can play this song with any degree of accuracy and endurance. I started playing with a pick...played with it for 5 years until I heard Stanley and Les.

[MEGADETH2702]

are you using a pick, or your fingers??

it looks like a pick but i cant really tell

[zodiakironfist]

It's a pick.

[MEGADETH2702]

OH MAN, you are awesomeeee. If only i could slow down the video to see the notes you are playing. I would love to learn this song, are you sure you don't have any tabs?

[zodiakironfist]

No, I do not. I can't even read tabs, really.

[OktaFierce]

Amazing my friend. Would you try Absorbed and Masked Jackal my 2 favourite fast Coroner songs please. I would love to play Absorbed myself but trying to work out the notes by ear seemed impossible.

[zodiakironfist]

I can try, that is all I can say. I think I remember MAsked Jackal, but it has been a long time and I am not sure I had it right the first time. I also plan on Mistress of Deception as soon as I can clean up that scale from hell. Thanks for dropping by. \m/

For those who are complimenting or asking questions of Zodiakironfist, the man passed away earlier this year. Luckily, we still have these badass videos to pay tribute to his skill, but sadly the man himself is no longer w/ us.

RIP Rob, you are one badass mofo.

Missed the runs in the begining that follow the guitar. Is that why you winked? Great cover otherwise!

Anybody know the tuning of this and "Mistress of Deception"?

[ac23AQ]

Your forearms must be buff. Of Popeye stature I presume.
